I've been thinking about this for a while, like, I thought a super team had to be made of 5 of the best players of all time or smt but idk. You guys call Vitality 2025 a super team and also MIBR 2026. In my opinion LEV is more of a super team than both those teams. They picked 2 of the brightest stars from Brazil's scene, the 2 best players from LEV Academy and didn't drop kiNgg, the only IGL who've played at a constant level among the years.
What makes a super team?

5 players who were good the year before, who will fail to be good the year they form the superteam
to be fair PCF picked up a bunch of tier 2 farmers as well if you want an example of the inverse
established names who have won something before, or were at least fighting for trophies, at least A-tier in their respective roles. Leviatan are a superteam only in retrospect imo, they are a dark horse who made it big, but I don't actually think (I don't follow vct every day, sorry) they were widely recognized as a superteam when they were formed, so LEV are actually a different situation.

not really PCF fault since the BBL partnership contract basically said "I'll help you achieve tier 1 then I'll steal your entire roster"

None of their players were top end T2 talents apart from Seven who is playing offrole
(unless you mean pre-BBL buyout)

I see your point. Makes sense actually.

no i do mean the current PCF roster, but this applies to BBL asw, they had probably the best 5 t2 players in emea and they're just kind of mid now

No, None of those players previously won anything. If that is the case, PRX every year.
FNC 2023 set the superteam bar too high. Need B2B Int'ls to deserve that tag. If lev wins shanghai they can be called superteam
