FNC got placed 2nd in EMEA, arguably the worst region in the world. A one team region placing 2nd in a farmer’s region isn’t an achievement 🤷♀️
Regionals don't really matter, as long as you qualify. International events are the main talking points.
No one brings up optic losing both regionals in NA because it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things.
And champions matter the most, it’s the culmination of the year. If you fall behind other teams by the end of the year, you aren’t the best team of the year lmao
