thats what im saying. i mean when a region is good enough, 4 teams is enough to take home the tournament + represent a region.
It doesnt work in csog because they killed every other region

im using escharts, its taking the most major streaming platforms into consideration (besided chinese ones I think)

nah, there is so many combinations, also there would be only one combination with 0 points

yeah, imo every region should also not get more than 4 slots (its enough representation and they could take 4 seeds if riot actually stops putting 2 EMEA teams in one group). I think riot wont keep TR with EMEA next year since they are well established so EMEA would still have enougn spots overall. but its just borin having 8 eu teams in playoffs in csgo.

japan has a huuuge fanbase, its on the same level as turkey, so if it continues like this, we might see some really good teams in 2-5 years, when there is homemade talent. If the game continues doing well there we might gonna see some decent performances. Imo they could make it out of play-ins if riot makes a similair format as Worlds (but shorter)

Group B > JettOneTap

make a 24 team tournament and give them one play-in slot

there is something called playoffs
also there is something called play-ins, wich they could do with a 24 team tournament

to see them play against other regions? seeing japan getting crushed is fun?

just look at league of legends, riot arent idiots, they know how to make an esport and how to distribute slots. Y'all just want it to be like csgo because "iTs HiHgEr CoMpEtItItIoN". people like that literally want eu and na getting 80 percent of the spots. well go watch then CSGO, so interesting its 8 eu teams in palyoffs, lets go HYYYYPPPPEEEEE. 4 teams are enough to represent a region + every region should have at least one slot + regions shouldnt be combined because it kills regions + fanbases

0/8

highlights, clutches, multikills...

my quality posts are quality tho, admit it

thats insane, there wasnt a single game yet peaking under 400k

saw this thread by the third best vlr.gg user

I mean overall it wasnt, 100T was clearly gonna win, but there was enough highlights + close rounds

he is right tho, rejkjavik had sen vs fnatic playing against each toher + no groups

400k actually, numbers got updated

if the tiebreaker is stage 3 performance, if not then they might play a Bo5 tiebreaker, imo thats more fair

no game under 400k this far, no way gambit vs CR will get 400k tho. also I think envy v vivo gets over 500k

ohhh thank you dude

btw what is CL next to max kills

dont forget sen v g2
imo 100T gambit could peek 600-700k and sen g2 700-800k

I just hope no region stands out,
having like 3 tiers would be good,
3/4 major regions
3/4 mid regions
3/4 minor regions
then having 20/24 teams with the major regions getting 3/4 spots, mid regions 2/3 and minor 1/2 spots. I just hope no region is like completlty bad or completly overpowered. even if some teams cant compete on top, aslong as they could make it through play-ins every now and then that would be super sick

the 3-0 was a seeding match tho, the played 2-0 first.
unfortunately it seems like paperrex will miss out on champions because stage 3 performance might be the tiebreaker

I mean usually those teams play in smaller tournaments or in Play-ins so that makes it lower

600-750k*
acend vs smb and g2 f4q almost had 500k on a friday

I mean other teams can also set him up, but yeah give them some more time, the others didnt look that bad buzt it reminds me of TSM, very jett superstar player centered

maybe TSM?

in all honesty, id like to see the lower regions making super teams to prove themselves.
japan, SEA, Latam and brazil should all get a superteam

2nd highest ACS in berlin atm

f0rsaken stocks to the moon

its the game, 9 3 isnt impossible to come back from

laklia is sooo good, he hasnt died once since the game started
34 rounds - 0 deaths, insane

arent you like 2 weeks late?

just let the teams speak for themselves, people are too quick to judge

"SUPER INTENSE WATCHIN SOUNDS"

Watch paperrex destroy SMB

Skrossi will get utility diffed imo

True, scream should also keep wasting his dash

He is likw the best sova player, I dont understamd what VS is doing. Maybe they judt wnated to buy the competition?

Nah vsison striker >nuturn, they will easily make LCQ

Its massive anyways

I dont think he really cares tbh

F4Q is just crazy agressive, they are dtill very good and a top 10 team in this tournament imo. Better than other asian teams (besides VS) and brazil

Yeah, imagine sinatraa shittalking other people together with dapr and shahz.
I just love teams that di that, or players, like for example stewie2k.

I have no problem with them chilling in the couch ro whatever they are doing, but its very unpleasent for my eyes with all the stuff on the table, it judt looks bad

Expected imo. Hopefully they can prove themselves and gaina VCT slot (masters or maybe even one for champions aswell) hope riot makes a 20 or even 24 team circuit next year. 16 is not enough, imo OCE and South asia should get one, LATAM +1 china 1/2 and some other regions like korea should get an upgrade. LATAM has played well this far and could prove themselves. India and china can prove themselves in LCQ aswell as OCE. Hope those smaller regions do well

If youre looking for entertainement, by far. If u want more analytical and actually hear the casters + interviews then they arent a great chpice. But very high effort + fun to watch
