idk bout china but in americas and apac the t2 teams are all the winners of the qualifiers for their respective subregion and the LCQ, while for EMEA it's literally just the top 3 VCL teams in the entire region as a whole and the LCQ winner
why emea t2 looks better

Also, all of the emea t1 teams are not good, so its easier for the t2 teams to look good. Americas and apac floors are much higher than emeas
apac? only prx looking good there + t2 emea teams will easily 13/0 t2 americas
also, what emea does is just shift walk all map and take aim duels so its just who is just good aimer at the end of day, they dont do a site execute or trap plays , they are not proactive as na or apac teams. in emea just play default all day .
bbl / fut / kc dont do that + as i said apac rn looking too bad except prx and maybe ns if they do a comeback and play like how they played on ewc
well in china there's only 1 region lol but the thing is their challengers scene is pretty underdeveloped; the top chinese teams are pretty decent, but you'll notice the bottom teams are REALLY bottom teams; it basically carries over into challengers, those teams struggle to find international talent and also struggle to find domestic talent, so they're bad; every other region is much larger
imo the dealbreaker is that after every regional vcl they play a interegion challengers every split and are closer to the host of their vct region to prac with t1 than all the others geographically
glazing emea tier 2 when they’re facing dogshit like FNC and GM because a tier 1 team from the best region in the world beats the nepo slops over at M8 is crazy
M80 would beat half of EMEA too, maybe not as good at them but yeah EMEA is looking cooked this year.
they’re in complete and utter denial that emea is just ass it’s breaking my heart honestly
I think it's because EMEA have a strong T2 culture, all our sport system rely on promo/relo giving a fresh air for T2. If you take LoL only EMEA have a T2 culture (NA doesnt care, KR is just academy)
