The Guard is the most EMEA team in NA

Honestly, in my opinion the way they play and their chemistry, they're based off of coordinated tactics and team play rather than just having raw aim.
Sure Sayaplayer, Valyn, Trent and even neT and JonahP individually clutch insane rounds, their chemistry and playstyle is similar to that of an EMEA team.
W org, w players
Edit : just an interesting observation on their record -
13-0 : 100T
13-1 : Sen
13-2 : OpTic

They feel like a weird hybrid of Fnatic and Gambit.

Not as disciplined as the latter, but not as prep-heavy as the former.

The Guard is such an interesting team

Loud better

Gaurd is for sure an interesting team to watch out. They have underrated players who really wants to win. Beating Sen 13-1 on icebox was a display of good co-ordination and anti-stratin' by them.
