I've been thinking about this for a while, like, I thought a super team had to be made of 5 of the best players of all time or smt but idk. You guys call Vitality 2025 a super team and also MIBR 2026. In my opinion LEV is more of a super team than both those teams. They picked 2 of the brightest stars from Brazil's scene, the 2 best players from LEV Academy and didn't drop kiNgg, the only IGL who've played at a constant level among the years.
What makes a super team?

5 players who were good the year before, who will fail to be good the year they form the superteam
to be fair PCF picked up a bunch of tier 2 farmers as well if you want an example of the inverse
not really PCF fault since the BBL partnership contract basically said "I'll help you achieve tier 1 then I'll steal your entire roster"
None of their players were top end T2 talents apart from Seven who is playing offrole
(unless you mean pre-BBL buyout)
no i do mean the current PCF roster, but this applies to BBL asw, they had probably the best 5 t2 players in emea and they're just kind of mid now
established names who have won something before, or were at least fighting for trophies, at least A-tier in their respective roles. Leviatan are a superteam only in retrospect imo, they are a dark horse who made it big, but I don't actually think (I don't follow vct every day, sorry) they were widely recognized as a superteam when they were formed, so LEV are actually a different situation.
FNC 2023 set the superteam bar too high. Need B2B Int'ls to deserve that tag. If lev wins shanghai they can be called superteam
