Each player in smb is individually better than each player in 100t, only Asuna and maybe ethan won't be a downgrade in smb, the boomers legit suck in terms of mechanics compared to any smb player.

Btw the only reason I replied like that is because the Greek poster had a Gypsy-Greekgod nickname referring to this meme video very popular on 2balkan4u, I didn't have any racist intentions, in fact I kinda like turks they are funny

True, 100t is about steel whiffing all shots from 5m and malding and hiko baiting 24/7 and losing 90% of clutches, while asuna and ethan are trying to play 2v5.

Ur literally in same group with Gambit 😂
U are gonna get 2nd in groups which probably means you are gonna play with a team that placed first in groups
Which will be ACEND/VS/SMB/SEN/NV
Only Envy here is close to you and all other teams are better than you.
So you should hope that your opponent is gonna be 1st place of group B :)

Tried what? If they became 2nd seed, groups would be exactly same, literally shit format…
If they got 4th their only decent opponent would be f4q…

Seeding format is just trash,4th seed of EMEA got the easiest group and 2nd and 3rd's are in danger to not even qualify to the playoffs

2nd and 3rd seed had far better odds of getting worse teams. It is what it is stop crying now

that's not how it works Japan 1 or Brazil 1 are not equal to NA 1 or EU 1, that's why the groups are unbalanced.

Well then seeding games dont matter at all. Thw seedings are fine next time win your tournament lol. Also it sucks having 2 emea teams when there is 4 groups, i dont know whi came up with that idea

I think it is easier for G2 to qualify for r8 than gambit, because I see HL as a potential dark horse.

Yeah but you are forgetting about F4Q. KR is the 3rd best region and theyre clearly better than BR. F4Q is 2nd seed KR and HL is 2nd seed BR.

I think HL is still the best team in BR and they play a style similar to VS. From what I've watched VS > HL > F4Q > VK even if the seeds say otherwise.

F4Q is actually good, for me its like XSET vs Faze, if F4Q pops off they can win if they dont its gonna be a 2:1 for G2

bruh, the pools were fair, it was an unlucky draw. The way they made these groups is the only fair way to do it when you have a different amount of teams coming from each region. They said from the beginning that two EMEA teams can be in the same group.

Ye but 2 EMEA in a group is just boring and dumb, otherwise seeding looks fair

I would agree on dumb, but def not boring. It makes the group stage more exciting, imo. But I agree, I prolly wouldn't have done it. But it was made public before the groups were drawn so idk why everyone was so surprised and is still crying about it.

There groups were randomly drawn by a fair set or predetermined pools. Do you not want Riot to follow the rules they make? They cant just have someone make the groups manually, even if it seems quite simple and obvious what the fairest set of groups would be, cuz than bias could potentially play a part. They also couldn't make the groups solely based on seeding since each region has a different amount of teams.

KRU, Zeta and Vivo Keyd are all regional champs tho... Yes the top 2 teams in every group aren't equal among the 4 groups but Group B is definitely the most balanced group. Any combination of 2 teams can make it out of Group B with Envy being the only team that is really expected to make it.
