the correct americas tier list

keeping it real

SEN/NRG (both at their best, if not then SEN > NRG until further notice)
LOUD

gap

LEV (consistently held back by tex, c0m also losing his stride. only reason why they're placed this high is because I can't see them losing to the rest below regularly yet, their loss to C9 is imo a fluke until further notice)
100T (massive choking issue that I could realistically understand someone putting them in the bottom 3 for it, however though I think for now they clear everyone below)
G2 (looking like a completely different team rn, but that's bc they vs'd a completely dysfunctional EG, still don't trust them enough)
MIBR (haven't played yet, hard to place but i think here is good)
C9 (even though they beat LEV, gut is telling me they belong in 7th still)
KRU (heat looks good (for now) but I don't think it's enough to call anything big yet. they also vs'd the worst team imo. if keznit actually has another consistent shooter then you can argue them being in 5th or even 4th)
EG (they look insanely ass all of the sudden and got 13-3'd on their map pick vs G2, they honestly didn't look too surprising beating a G2 that REFUSED to win during Kick Off as well aside from that insanely massive anti stratting vs LOUD on Ascent, here is good)
FURIA (ass)

honestly not happy on how americas has been looking so far imo

leads 100T has lost this season:
(only includes half time + or leads of 5+ rounds)
8-7 led on LEV map 3
8-7 lead on SEN map 3
10-7 lead on SEN map 2
idk where the idea boostio and them choke came from

right after that 8-7 lead vs SEN they lost every round afterwards to end the map 8-13

in their match vs SEN yesterday, they were up 10-8 on Icebox to end the map 10-13 in their map pick. the map that came afterwards they fumbled their attack comepletely and only got 1 round in the half to end the series.

that LEV match was looking like a choke when I was watching it imo, all g if u dont agree. I wanna see how they fair against worse teams on paper, which is why I think they're still that high. Also I don't consider chokes to be just teams losing massive leads, if a team suddenly turns off their switch and start to play way worse to lose the series for multiple rounds in a row even when they're still stringing in a few rounds then that's a choke in my eyes.

but the phrase is literally "choking the lead" and i don't really consider losing a 1 round lead a choke so they've only really choked once by definition
my issue is with your phrasing, say they "fall apart" instead

not really? "choking under pressure" is a thing and that's what I'm basing the word off of. Like for example, a team that has looked untouchable for an entire event suddenly lost the grand final 0-3 0-39 can be considered a choke. 100T looked great in the maps you brought up but then they suddenly started playing way worse for multiple rounds in a row into a loss, that's a choke.

sure that phrase does exist
100T's attack on split was just shit, even if it was the first half they'd of gone like 5-7 at best and still lost 13-10
and they were the underdogs in both matchups, there was virtually no pressure on them

not really, unless you're assuming Boostio's performance yesterday is the regular, eeiu also still exists. they're enough to keep them that high since they've only faced LEV and SEN twice so far.
