legit question no bait I just started watching VCT again after a long time
NA fans were memeing EMEA when TL went in the finals against VIT and thought they would get dismantled by SEN at Bangkok.
I think you are underestimating EMEA teams a little bit and seeing yourselves stronger than you actually are, but I kinda expect this because this site is heavily biased towards AMER.
You’re conflating Sen fans with all NA fans. Sure the former rarely know ball but it was undeniable that G2 looked like heavy favorites across every region at Bangkok.
TH does look good right now but the other top teams initially regressed going into Split 1 due to roster changes. Contrast this to the Americas teams that are consistently improving by the week against a still dominant G2.
It’s hard to compare the relative strength between mid table teams across regions so it should be fun to see who ends up actually qualifying to Toronto.
