GenG will still be a strong team in 2026, texture have to make the list. I don't see TALON making consistent international. Swap him with primmie.

EMEA have KC to thank, but only few teams invited + its only showmatch, not serious tournament.
There's a reason why many offseason tournaments are always held in Asia/China, majority always grateful + kpopification
SEN are the only one that cares in NA, small 4 teams tournament does happen in south america
EMEA only red bull care enough to make offseason turney, cause Saudi's MENA EWC got treated..... u know.
Can't remember who said it, either was sliggy/mini
"VIT main problem is compatibility and playstyle, u put bunch of players together with different playstyle, they all play different way from their previous teams and coach, it's like having too many cooks in the kitchen. Faded being inexperienced internationally and from tier 2 also didn't help getting respect to the players whose been in Tier 1 for a long time. The players (less/Derke) have been at the very top, it not easy to handle the players with such accomplishment).
Something like that. Basically synergy issue between teammate and the coaching staff.
2023 and 2024 Derke 100% agree
2025 Derke.... As a team.... In vitality? current vitality???
If you are referring to the final org winner trophy yes.
The valo winner plate NO
PRX/GenG/T1 all masters winners (top 3 & trophy diff)
DRX Consistent top 4-6 at internationals (4th)
RRQ & TLN have Jemkin and Primmie (5th & 6th)
Anyone can be 7th in 8th in pacific honestly: TS embarrassed TL at lock in, NS have Rb now, Boom could go back to stage 1 group stage form 5-0.
Alfajer have stronger teammate.
I like EWC 7 day event as opposed to LOCK IN 14+ days long event.
T1 and PRX both have TLN in their group. If we follow TLN WLWL, they should lose to T1 and beat PRX.
Also pacific top 4 standing super stacked, the final top 4 should be PRX and 3 KR teams that makes it to champs.
d4v41 said post match they still wanted to keep playing. They're not fatigued and worned out unfortunately.
fine 4 teams region then. I'll compromise.
CN team can contribute as well.
We knock G2 out of EWC.
RRQ was pacific no1 seed. It means the APAC as a region is super competitive. Any1 can win in pacific.
T1 vs G2 was better.
EDG vs TH was better.
APAC international rep: T1/DRX/PRX/RRQ/GenG.
APAC 5 teams region.
GenG/T1/PRX have all won. Make sense for DRX to win next, it's breaking curse + Pacific year after all.
are you implying it will happen again for champs later this year?
u have boaster and chronicle on your team, they're not the "complacency " type.
PRX and TH both break their curses in b2b internationals.
Congrats TH, alfajer stood up for you.
apparently its not worth wasting their time since ZETA kept getting destroyed in scrims (don't know how other teams know each other's result against ZETA).
6/10
Pro: Short duration 7 days tournament is good, doesn't take 14+ days, games are quite competitive, crushing gold is fun.
Cons: Improve stream B. less tech pause, improve qualifying format, improve observing, improve scheduling, improve hype promotion leading to event.
Would I watch again? Sure since its only 7 days.
Pre Partnership era when ZETA made internationals, they kept getting blacklisted by many EU teams making them difficult to find scrims. Feel like it prevents their growth in a way. It's a harsh thing.
To the org its worth way more.
1st place - $7,000,000
2nd place - $4,000,000
3rd place - $3,000,000
4th place - $2,500,000
5th place - $2,000,000
Benjy fortnite $$$
Benjy EWC $$$
there's also the org trophy at the end of EWC.
CN holding the event in another city, Pacific holding the stage 2 final in Tokyo. EMEA gonna do anything similar?
KICK boo as well. Guy makes the mood negative + no longer ambitious to win trophies anymore.
Get ange1 and ardiis.
2 EMEA teams playing fast map. There's no reverse sweep.
