Fnatic was good as well. They made it to finals 2018, playoffs in 2019 and even in 2020 they almost beat TES(?) in playoffs but got reverse swept. So it wasn't only G2. Fnatic were competitive as well even if they weren't like top 4.

mentality,and how popular the game is there korea alone has a bigger playerbase than euw, and they and china take the game wayy more seriously than eu or NA,go watch edg coach clip and fpx doctheir coaches are literally yelling at them and putting a lot pressure the mentality is a lot more like traditional sports compared to eu or NA

idk how its now but i would expect they are still atleast about the same size if no bigger https://external-preview.redd.it/VGoAfaadVRqJNyRDeFg6sLC7MXoE5rEvkG5vilwD7Zc.jpg?auto=webp&s=040b4cc9f1fd61684be0e9225c25a071d02c54b7

i think those are accounts created because idk what those other numbers would be then,but still the popularity is insane a country with 55m people has 19m players

Korea has less than 52 million in population, and most of them are on the older side since Korea has the worlds lowest fertility rate with long life expectancy's masking the low fertility rate problem. Western Europe has a population of almost 200 million. Not only do sources (like the one archetype linked below) show EUW has a much larger playerbase, common sense can be used to draw reasonable conclusions.

#26

so what are those numbers i showed,but eitherway my point was mainly about popularity and how seriously passionate they are about the game,for example t1 fans literally protesting against the org because they cant win worlds parking trucks in front of their office that is just next level commitment that doesnt happen anywhere else lol

I know you're talking about playerbase. I mean, did u see those videos in China after edg won upset win over damwon kia? Heck just watch na or eu finals. And btw a passionate fan base doesn't equate to a larger playerbase.

#36
asdfgh

Frags

yeah but my point has nothing to do with playerbase at the i meant to use it as a point on how popular the game is it doesn't even change anything if the player base is smaller because its still massive for a single country with 1/4 of euw population not even counting all the nearby region players who play there

#37

Frags

huh? this response doesn't even make sense

#39
asdfgh

Frags

what doesn't sense, my point is league is still way more popular in Korea than euw overall if you compare how small Korea is compared to the whole of Europe, and its not only about player base its about the popularity and how interested people are in it in general, just look at Sweden and Denmark in cs, they have 15m people combined yet have more majors than almost all the other regions combined

#41

They have more wins because they practice alot, are dedicated, etc. Plus, you were incorrectly arguing how Korea has a larger playerbase than western Europe by saying false stuff like "korea alone has a bigger playerbase than euw". Idk why you're suddenly changing your story and arguing about popularity now rather than raw playerbase numbers which you were basing your earlier argument off.

NA and EU are still scarred from 2018 when FNC, C9, and G2 all made it to the top four but still lost to a Chinese team. It’ll take us some time to recover

West can't keep up with asian playerbase. The gap will always exist while there are only 2 international tournaments a year

Because Asians are crack at games with abilities, give valorant 2 more years and Asians will dominate.

I think its time for riot to just make LCS a minor region and give more slots to actually good teams, I'm tired of seeing the NA orgs get free spots at worlds just to go 0-6 in groups and get knocked out by like the 4th place LCK and 3rd place LPL teams, make them earn their spot before giving byes.

they are so bad to the point that almost all NA good teams importing players from korea
p.s: look at 100T

also btw fnatic won the first ever worlds so EU isn't that bad compared to NA

the first worlds shouldn't count as much bc there were no Korean or Chinese teams there
