the variance in teams performance in emea is less than any other thats why it looks least competitive...in other leagues teams overperform and underperform too much...
for a case study lets look at last year
NA - v1 and guard overperformed at start of the year,, faze and nrg and xset overperformed at middle and 100t overperformed at end but none of these teams managed to sustain it
emea - fpx fnc were always 1/2 then guild m3c and liquid were 3/4/5 and it made it seem like these 3/4/5 teams are bad but then guild beat optic at copenhagen and tl made it out of groups in champs

watched a few match highlights of tenz c9 so became a fan o tenz then followed him to become a fan of sen watched first iceland masters really liked fnatic playstyle and their personality and have been a fnc fan since

so i think by now we all agree that t2 scene in emea is just not good . it was probably decided this way to encourage national support towards leagues but its not working . having 8-9 different challengerr league with 8-10 teams each is not sustainable for eu when there arent other tournaments,viewership is low and only one spot for promotion . also it spreads out the talent too much because of limited import slots which makes teams worse on avg... i think the only solutions is to have 4 leagues at most - eu league , turkey league , cis league , mena league
turkey gets high viewership so it can survive on its own .....eu league has 16 teams and some slots can be given to famous spanish ,french,german,polish etc t2 orgs and have 8 open qual spots

i jus dont miss

vlr ratings are bad.....if you are a baiter you will have higher rating than if you are entry ....acs although also not a great parameter is better than ratings

they would get diffed when zekken has bad games which if we look at this year its probably one in every 3 to 4 games

just pick up m80 /guard whichever team doesnt make it through ascension..

this aged well

yep i dont think people should call names to other people....but lets just say if someone does and its a bad joke but isnt malicious lets not assume the worst of them and start calling them racist because it would just alienate them and next time they might just say stuff out of spite

does dark skinned indians count...also your point?

both have similar hairstyles

probably ...it is a very ungunny joke they try to make but i dont think is offensive...same when people just say bollywood and otherthings in respect to indians

youre reading too much into it ...

i think everyone should stop calling names as it could be seen and percieved as racist intentions but i do not think people calling dgzinh mbappe or cj is racially motivated or has any malicious intent behind it....it is same people who call onur jhonny sins and fnatic twitter has a whole meme of calling chronicle ryan gosling....

so basically get guard or m80 players whichever dont make it through ascension

russia wins and its not even close

controller - nats or redgar
initiator/jett - shao
sentinel - suygetsu
flex - chronicle
initiator/raze - cloud

cloud plays raze,shao plays jett

BBL hosting a watchparty in the same arena that champs was held in and its already sold out...if it is at full capacity then it is gonna be crazy

so true ...i can believe they dont even try to help the team they are supporting by shouting sites and directions smh....emea worst fanbase easily

he definitely was one of the players in the world

u probably just dont like the brit humour but she is the best caster in val rn

doug balla 💀

most are..me personally ive been supporting fnc since iceland 2021 press conference

increase the range on trademark and tp by 25%

russia wins everything
controller - nats or redgar
sentinel - suygetsu
initiator - shao
flex - chronicle
duelist - cloud(he can learn jett and he knows raze)

3 spots are there for each region directly at champs...since americas and pacific send 3 teams to masters they auto qual to champs but emea has 4 teams at masters so top 3 at masters from emea will qual to champs

none of the emea teams bombed out,,,g2 won a match liquid made it out of groups in iceland......in copenhagen guild made it out of groups as first seed with optic and loud in same group fnatic made top 4 ....at champs liquid again made it out of groups fpx were top4 and fnc were 6th just like xset so as a region emea > NA even though optic had highest peak

sen won iceland and did fuckall afterthat ...100t beat gambit and acend then imploded after that ...other than optic na teams in 2022 were guard bombed out of iceland wthout a win xset bombed out of copenhagen without a win ....100t got grouped at champs....xset improved a lot though and got 5-6 at champs but that was it from NA at most in 2022 they were 1.5 team region

its not that complicated...fns was their kj player but he can igl better on initiator..if victor can play perma kj and not want to play duelist, the roles are fine

prolly japanese zeta fans

i laughed

honestly surprised nobody has dgzinh after asps and derke

balla creates the most hype n yall are haters

just give him 25$ to spend through paypal or smthn

istg if doug and balla are present there then riot is smoking sum good shit while deciding their broadcast talent

apeks>>

only 1 import per team allowed deffo cannot play with ayrin

the league is fine as it is rn we just need quicker timeline for ascension and relegation . team promoted has to play for 1 year t2 but are given 2 yar for franchise . i think it should be 2 teams promoted every split but only for one split/only one year at max

EMEA SUPERTEAM WINS THE TOURNAMENT NA SUPERTEAM ALMOST DISBANDS AFTER THE TOURNAMENT

its pansy and hypoc

before slots were there for good representation from every region as they couldnt play each other but now that every team in americas can play each other we treat all 3 regions as equal...also china defo didnt deserve 2 slots out of 12 rn but we ll see later

lol

yeah n this is a trick as old as time. 75% of what people like him say stuff which everyone would agree but then spew worst shit other 25% of time but people get mesmerised by the bland takes and feel compelled to support the other worst takes and sooner or later they become devout supporters

its behind right now but if they perform good this year like last year and have few finals appearance they will takeover like mibr/lg lineup did in cs

loud looking sick furia looking good and also viewership wise loud games were most viewed...if by some chance loud wins this event they will be the most popular valo team

in clutch situations no one generally says anything unless its a info someone missed or is important...also igls do not generally guide every step of every player. but Derke did call on defence bind and he is the duelist who is going to make aggresie plays so he has to b the one to call flashes stuns other support etc

yeah
