Stats isn't everything. A pessimistic, but objective view won't get you anywhere. A fish can't know if he's big or not till it reach the ocean, yes. But it doesn't mean that it cannot be confident in its own abilities to try and survive.
that's a meme, SkRossi isn't forsaken from CSGO iirc
Well, it seems they're going to release it officially. Valorant is slated to be revealed during the LoL Pro League finals weekend, iirc.
I wouldn't be surprised if many count SEA/JP/KR as the weakest teams once again. While Reykjavik did break the stigma of these regions of being cannon fodder, they weren't wrong per se either considering that while NUTURN went far, X10 finished 7-8th, and they defeated CR in order to avoid last place. But each match that they lost, they were competitive. And it pulled a lot of eyes towards them. However, that was Reykjavik.
Berlin brings an entirely new lineup for these regions, except CR who's the sole returner from the region. There's not enough sample size on how they would perform internationally, but regionally?
VS and F4Q bring a lot of versatility and creativity that we've seen out of the KR teams, and I think that'll be the catalyst for them on performing well if needed.
ZETA and CR bring that firepower and crazy playstyles that they've shown in the past, especially ZETA since we knew them as the dominant Absolute JUPITER pre-Masters 1.
Paper Rex brings the absolute stylish, flashiest, and aggressive style that SEA is known to have. f0rsakeN, if anything, embodies that nature. Bren Esports are also in the same vein. While SEA as a whole is a melting pot of aspects of gameplay from regions around them, they've always had that aggressive, in-your-face gameplay that might catch teams down if they underestimate them. You saw how it went for Team Vikings who almost lost to X10 in Reykjavik, and many had expected a sweep.
All-in-all, I expect either VS, ZETA, and/or Paper Rex/Bren to go further into the tournament if all goes right. Do I expect them to win the entire thing? Eh, not exactly. They're still fresh onto the international stage, but y'know, don't underestimate them.
It's not banned in China. It's just the licensing from Tencent that's not out yet, afaik.
I have hope. And that was X10. Not Paper Rex or Berlin. As much as I am realistic, I'm also hopeful.
Never underestimate SEA. You saw how Iceland went.
Absolutely. In that situation, Full Sense would have 235 points.
Even if they bombed Berlin, they should have enough points to be SEA's 2nd seed, barring a Bren Esports qualification where if both SEA teams bombed at 13-16th place, they will both have equal points (225 points)
Yep, I stand corrected. Even if they bombed Berlin, they should have enough points to be SEA's 2nd seed, barring a Bren Esports qualification.
I'm sure somewhere they're talking about the scene, especially considering China's social media circle (y'know, Weibo etc.)
Casters said they've qualified for Berlin, not Champions.
Not yet. They're still a long way.
That's actually somewhat wrong? There are many high-profile teams in China, and even recognizable orgs have picked up Chinese rosters within the region. It's very competitive, and the scene is picking up. To say it has 0 pro scene right now pretty downplays them.
Have mercy, Paper Rex. Have mercy.
Internet issues. AE's ISP is down nationwide. Most likely, the match will be delayed after UBF, but if their internet isn't returning until then, they'll forfeit
Let me recheck again.
EDIT: Changes made to follow the description and a verified 2nd source. It is back to its original matchup (flipped bracket).
They've updated the bracket on the PPGL Facebook page.
It's getting TOO LONG
Hold your thoughts there, they're slowly mounting a comeback.
sorry sorry, soalnya itu disetnya kan semua starter, jadi 3nable sm frizznatz kehitung karena mereka yg duluan. Nanti kalau statsnya udh masuk auto ganti kok
Thank you for the clarification! While the information isn't necessarily wrong, we'll adjust it accordingly!
Not really when you think about it. Every round counts, and in the end X10 lost by one round. Also, shouldn't have used the cam bug just saying.
BAAM win, they take BOOM with them to Playoffs. GXR wins, they take X10 with them.
BOOM owns the round differential. If GXR wins 2-0 against BAAM, BOOM qualifies due to them winning more rounds in their loss against X10 on Icebox.
Brother, it's not match fixing. You see how they were broken on certain points. Don't blame them on just wanting to give up. ONIC in the end was clutching at straws.
Yinsu, as far as I'm aware is a host, not an analyst
Well, I don't know about that. You're being toxic.
Alright. First of all, it's tournament organizers. Not production. They're completely separate entities under one umbrella. Second of all, it might be true if this was Challengers Philippines as they have the higher authority to decide besides the Riot global rules. But no, it's the SEA Challengers Playoffs which while managed and organized by PPGL, it is in conjunction with Riot and their global rules as it is the overarching entity.
You do know rulebooks are under Riot's discretion under the global rules, not the PH production?

Zeal unfortunately was knocked out by SunSparks on the last day of Challengers 3 Week 3 qualifiers.
Jinny retired, rather than dropped.
Fixed
My apologies, it is! Thank you for the wording correction, it was what I had in mind but it just missed me.
Weren't you the one that shat all over the fact that these smaller regions gets a slot over teams such as CIS and TR back in Masters 2? Like, I agree with the comments above too, dude. If they can't defeat the other EU teams then, tough luck. Not to discredit their effort, but with how the slots are set up, they can't all be winners. Hoping that Riot can change the format to better suit the many sub-regions, though.
Also PLEASE don't forget about regional differences in terms of context before you shit on their international performance. EU/TR/CIS is different than LATAM, as the case for other regions.
For SEA: There's quite the amount of teams that honestly could cause quite a coinflip if they were to match up against international teams. Region-wise,
Thailand is pretty much still the best region. X10 hasn't exactly lost a step even with Patiphan not playing, and with the addition of FULL SENSE and Sharper, they might bring the big guns now.
Indonesia is interesting, however. With the self-immolation of NXL LIGAGAME, new teams have stepped up onto the mantle. Alter Ego finally rediscovering their form in the early stages of SEA competition. BOOM Esports had a rough time, but they finally made it up in Challengers 3 with the addition of fl1pzjder. However, ONIC is a real sleeper team. They've always been a good fringe T1 / top T2 team, but with the addition of Monyet, they might surprise some folks.
The Philippines is an interesting one as well. Bren making it to the playoffs is to be expected, but with Zeal (ex-6045Pirates) gone, the return of Galaxy Racer (ex-Ark Angel) and the rise of Oasis Gaming should bring a fresh new outlook for PH teams coming into the next stage of VCT SEA.
MY/SG is pretty much the Paper Rex show, but with UwU defeating them on Challengers 2, MY/SG might not be a solo performance for much longer.
HK/TW is also pretty much the CBT Gaming show. KPC dissolved and absorbed some of its members to CBT, a practically super team within the sub-region. Five Ace is a team that has always been on the fringes but gets cut off by either CBT or KPC in the past, so it's nice to see them moving up the ladder.
Vietnam is pretty much somewhat unknown. I have faith, but their limited showing in the last Challengers Playoffs might cloud my judgment. Team Big BAAM (ex-SYG) might be their best shot so far, but on the other side, I have zero idea how EGO would perform.
At the end of the day, I'd expect X10 to be the surefire representative, with either BOOM or Bren behind.
What an upset
My apologies! My internet bricked itself since last night and PPGL posted it on 10 AM GMT+7, when my internet was still down. It's updated now. My apologies again.
And they didn't lose their cool the entire way. One step back, 3 steps fowards.
I believed.
I have hope for Anubis
Maaf sempat delay, statsnya sedang diupdate.
It is the old team that is being inputted. This roster is different.
Not the LEC Studio (aka Studio K.) Verti Music Hall is going to be the venue used for Berlin. It hosted the Group Stage for the 2019 LoL Worlds as well.
