EMEA and APAC are and will be the better regions

TL is a solid team
TH needs to prepare mentally

BBL/KC/FUT/NAVI/VIT/ can do a run also

as for Pacific , not worried at all

for me......

1.Leo
2.Chronicle
3.Forsaken
4.Nats
5.Derke/Alfajer
6.-/-
7.Aspas

(I dont care about kills. Aspas isn't best duelist , Derke is......

thats why is called HM and not 6th best for a reason

I meant to say Bangkok...but either way being the 2nd worst performing player has to be criminal

all they have is 1 top 4 appearance and 1 trophy....THIS proves to me that those were flukes...

Gambit disbanded while being the best team in the world....they didn;t even get a chance to play anymore together.... 4 years later and 3 of them are still in tier 1

did aspas go to Bangkok though......I have realised recently that Derke might be the best duelist of all time

already did it at Bangkok

why you so mad cant i have my opinion....and surely EDG and T1 are not there....EG yes , but no other team goes there

next year champions system should be like this in my opinion:
top 2 go to champ
best team in points system get the spot #3

last chance qualifier gets spot #4
( including tier 2 teams ....or at least teams which qualified for Ascension)

well I said Honorable mention. That team was my fav , but PRX became my fav in Reykjavik 2022 and Copenhagen

they were 2021 best team ...in such short spam they achieved greatness... ACEND lucky to win that event tbh....
2 trophies back to back would make them top 5

Fluke or not T1 was super impressive , cant deny that

Just REALISED THAT NOT ONLY THE WINNERS...but also losers suffered after

GAMBIT disbanded
optic disbanded
PRX went 1 year and a half on downgrade(but won finally)
Heretics on regress(as we speaking)

I would say both SEN's are mickey mouse.......8 and 10 team events.....32 teams doesn't make it mickey mouse at all....yes the format was brutal , but every team had a chance to win it equally
not to mention 4/5 teams beaten in the run by Fnatic were americas teams

1. Fnatic ( 2 trophies,4 finals, 6 times top 4 in total, several regionals won, 2nd most consistent team in terms of going international, best EU team each year at one point)
2. PRX( 1 trophy, 3 finals , 5 times top 4 in total, several regionals won , most consistent team in terms of going international, also each year at one point they were best APAC team(not 2021))
3. LOUD ( 1 trophy (CHAMP), 3 finals, 5 times top 4 in total , 1 regional )
   4.OPTIC/ENVY/NRG core ( 1 trophy , 3 finals, 5 times top 4 in total, no regionals(correct me if I am wrong)
4. SEN ( 2 Trophies, 2 finals, 3 times top 4 in total, 1 regional)

HM: GAMBIT ( Unfortunately because of matters out of their control GAMBIT is tragedy )

note*;
while sentinel trophies can overtake the 3 other teams , I count more factors such as consistency, reputation over the history(which for me SEN doesn't . they just won 2 trophies (amazing achievement), but couldn't keep consitency

+++t even carry their legacy ( took them 3 years to win one)......OPTIC( org changed) core was respectfully consistent in 2021-2023

G2 and TH are the only teams to lose finals and not win one.....DRX needs to get a final first

If EMEA can't win it ... AMERICAS has even less chances

I got my money on EMEA this event....home crowd and their 2 week finishing late won't happen again( right)

I think lets be fair FNC had map disadvantage....and they delivered on PEARL and Sunset enough

he is free next year

for me Fnc is my 2nd fav

Riens

Americas team are throwing in lower ...some one has to choke the finals

If he had won that map no matter the result the Kang Kang record was going to be broken....but we can say this is the best 4 maps performance

Bro TL would have eleminated SEN if Nats was playing....you wouldnt face BLG

heaven is banned for sure

this is like exchanging hojlund with haland

wild

I have kaajak or something. call me weir , but one of them will deliver this final

the fact that one of them will win in their debut..

i think T1 made it better

We are not yet over and 2025 has delivered so far

We got DRX,G2 and VIT winning their first trophy ever at kickoff

T1 winning Master Bangkok vs G2 in a spectacular final as Buzz and Stax finally lift trophy

RRQ winning Stage 1, EDG missing first event ever and XLG from Ascension to Stage 1 winner....., PRX hype train.....Wolves amazing Run

A Grand final FNC vs PRX which no matter what will break records .....

Up until this point this has to be better than other years ( if we get the 2 masters event timeframe)

best comment I have seen in VLR.GG

the average guy will buy that as it is the most clean in term of design

sacy retired though

I think to make it interesting make 2 per team max.....

Xeus -duelist
alfa - sentinel/2nd duelist(viper)
mr falin - Smoker(IGL)
Riens - Initiator scan
Woot - Flex/ Initiator flash

Russia , Korea and Turkey TOP 3
USA and China after
Indonesia sleeper team
UK underrated

imagine FNC wins tommorrow ..such aura

bro that is 2nd most impressive pickems other than finding all correct

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/7be2816a....... "when you doing an exam and find the answer , but not how to solve it" ahhhhhhhh pickems

The :
Suygetsu aims , the reset.....ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS....
haunts me also to this day

THE "HATE" is just jealousy of NA FANS casue SEN, NRG, 100T are Shiiittt

G2 in golden era????? for winning AMERICAS?

I didn't hate...did I say they are overrated or lucky?

I don't hate them at all ( expect Leaf)

but they are such auraless team . Best team of regions plays like EU team and gets cooked

you cant be hated if nobody cares about you....FNC is hated as 1 team region...gen g was slammered after champs 2024 group exit

ofc there were people, but most didnt

Gen G did:
1st kickoff
2nd Madrid
2nd stage 1
1st shanghai
1st Stage 2

FNC did:
1st Lock in
2nd EMEA LEAGUE
1ST Tokyo
4th Champs

TH did
2nd KICKOFF
2ND stage 1
2nd SHANGHAI
3RD stage 2
2nd CHAMPS

BUT NONE APPRECIATED THEM...IT WAS "CLASSIC EMEA"

I would switch 2nd and 3rd...ON CONSTANT basis EMEA has beaten both regions in head to head matches( 2024 till now)

APAC is first though.

let me tell you that 10-1 is the head to head elimination of EMEA VS AMER
