Pacific looking a lil weak this year, no?
amer has 5-6 teams that just suck, but in pacific even the bottom teams can compete. only one team would get consistently ran over and thats zeta and even then zeta would beat the fuck out of 2g
in amer u have 2g, furia, lev, mibr, c9, eg who are just shit
pacific doesnt have a g2/vit/edg but they still have teams that can be competitive without the bottom half of the league getting ran over
D1 lev hater
I would consider boom, ge, ts and tln on the same level or below
boom nearly 2-0ed t1, rrq nearly beat geng and they dropped a map to secret who lost to global and so forth. theres not a clear line anywhere where the region drops in quality
also i think all those 4 teams would 2-0 2game
either way i think the bottom half of apac is better than bottom half of amer, and i believe the opposite for the top halves. so in internationals amer will be better but in regionals youll see a lot more competition in apac
Decent take! Itโs a shame Pacific is unlikely to win a trophy this year though.
Mibr was third place and Eg is not shitting on rrq ๐
Icy canโt even hit an op shot, heโs not close to Jemkins level
nah hes right, the top teams of Americas > top teams of Pacific but avrg of Americas < avrg of pacific
Pacific is really top heavy, after the top 4 everyone is kinda ass, emea has that same problem but itโs the whole region
I definitely disagree, 3/4 of the region is decent, but no teams are good enough to win a major and the rest are shit
lets look at who is most likely to contend for a trophy rn:
Amer:
G2 (Likely)
Nrg (maybe)
Sen (maybe)
Loud (stretch)
Emea:
Th (Good chance)
Vit (Hot take, not that likely)
Fnc (stretch)
Cn:
Edg (decent chance)
Te (stretch)
Pac:
T1 (decent chance)
Geng (maybe)
Prx (mayyybeee)
Drx (stretch)
Ge (guaranteed)
Would say that Amer is the most top heavy, but has a lot of really punchy mid teams. Emea has a bunch that are good, but not quite world tier. Cn basically just has edg and maybe te with everyone else as bottom feeders, and pac is pretty heavy, but most teams are either international level or looking like bottom feeders
APAC has a lot more "nice" teams at the top than other regions, but there isn't a really strong team like NA has with G2 and EMEA has with TH and VIT.
