Yeah we shouldnt have complained for the group, we shouldve watche 5 duplictaed games. And rn ur right i really wanna see 2 emea teams battle it out, u never know when theyre both gonna fight each other again, i love global lan

I live how everyone is comparing emea with fnatic but noone is comparing liquid with emea rn. People think emea will literally destroy anything because they think that toö 6 eu is better than fnatic back then (in comparising to time)

So tje problem is not the group, the problem is mich rather that 4 emea teams arent split into 4 groups, id rather have sentinels in group a than having to watch 2 emea teams against each other. Also the argument that u have to be top 2 to win the tournament anyways is lacking. If it was champions, fair, ur right. But keep in mind masters is still a qualifier, acend has to make it to top 8 to qualify for example.

Ucl has seeding? What are you on about.

How can't u tell that it is sarcasm

Why not? Team.liquid got 4th wivh is below fnatic and they lost to fnatic. They were obviously worse then fnatic

I mean in NA every team tried to win, also if u do it like this teams are gonna try next time.so thats good

Nah they are even. They alway swap wins. Challengers 2 won by fnatic emea finals won by liquid, in iceland fnatic wins, second eu qualifier, liquid wins. Even tho i root for liquid fnatic has a small edge aslong as they dont fix their problems. Jamppi chokes in important games, no real jett playet (scream wasting dashes and not really being made for entry) no sova, kryptix lackluster...

Ur delusional and you clearly have no idea about fnatic and you only watch seeding matches. U think they are just worse when in reality player of G2 and many other EMEA pros/coach said that they will easy qualify as second/third. Just because they messed up with trying to reinvent themselfes doesnt mean these EMEA teams are far better than fnatic in iceland.

Why not compare the EMEA teams from now with liquid wich were bad at iceland? Liquid was one kill away from knocking out the number one seed EMEA. But this surely doesnt count right? Because i mean fnatic didnt wualif and almost won against sen, lmao

Im not, im being reakistic, gambit and acend might win it but u guys are delusional if u think that this EMEA is by FAR better than fnatic and liquid. Trust me fnatic will be at least top 2 in decembre

Completly different seedings

Fnatic winning champions without a doubt. NA too stronk

Sen in iceland >>> liquid
Liquid in EMEA finals: one kill awqy of knocking out number one seed EMEA.
U lots are alle comparing EMEA now with fnatic wich played 10 times worse.
Im calling it right here fnatic wins champions

This makes seeding matches complezly irrelevant tho

Japan>eu

But then u get 2 emea teams in playoffs, this way its gonna be 0

Super uncommon DELUSIONAL_NUKKYE_FAN L

Ik its becajse of bad results, but I hope the reason they didnt reinvest isnt because of the VCT gap

Envy couldve aswell landed intl group a instead of b. Thats how seeding works bruv

What do you expect? Them putting every team manually into a group completly biased? Seedings are fine and fair but having 2 emea teams is just dumb

The thing with SMB is. They always play high ping and they have to adapt to the high ping, peek diffrrently and hold angles differently. I hope they have enough time to get used to single digit ping and can play at their best. I think vision strikers is overall just insane.

Its his teammate, wdym gamesrage

How are they not?

Is that the new KRÜ player?

I still.hope they change group A/B, sure this way its more interesting, even tho one quarter finals will be less interesting, but its only one game. On the other side tho masters is still a qualifier so having a group of death is very unfortunate and should not happen, even more so since the game is new and regions try to show that they are the best

1) Group A
Obvious one, we got 3 insane teams and we will have 3 insanely interesting and important games. This is gonna be a banger group
2) Group B
Envy should make it thru easily.
KRÜ and vivo keyd will most likely be fighting for place 2 but might aswell upset envy. Imo they will meet in lowers tho meaning its a south american matxg to show dominance and would be a very big game, probably close. Japan also looks way bwtter than at iceland. This group is literally scrwaming for upsets.
3) Group D
Sentinels should make it thru pretty easily but the other 3 teams are close together. Imo G2 and F4Q are on the same level and bren might pull off an upset.
4) Group C
Pretty straight forward. Probably 100T vs Gambit in uppers and the loser makes it thru easily imo. Crazy racoon is the clear underdog and there is a big skill gap from top 2 too bottom 2

My predictions:
Group A: 1st Acend, 2nd Vision Strikers
Group B: 1st Envy, 2nd KRÜ
Group C: 1st Gambit, 2nd 100T
Group D: 1st Sentinels, 2nd F4Q

Also, if 100T and Envy meet, the winner goes to champions while loser needs NA to win to be able to qualify thru circuit points

I hope its not because VCT has a 6 month gap for non LCQ/Champs teams

Zeta over the 2 best south american teams??

I was on vacation for 2 weeks came back and lost 13 out of 15 games. I dont know what happened there but also i realized the lobbies were much more toxic or peple werent calling

Riot pls fix

So apparently the goal is to have 5 percent of the player base in diamond+ and .9 percent in immortal plus. Last act the rank distribution was somewhat like that. Atm tho there is only 0.5 precent in immortal and 2 percent in diamond+. So if you are theoratically a diamond 1 u are a plat 2 rn

Same goes for plat. If you are top 20 percent u should be plat+ but u get put into gold 2

Its only one quarter finals that day, probably the 2nd of group a vs whoever. Since then noone has to play 2 games a day

I appreciate the effort of putting a comma there

I mean seeding cant be 100 percent accurtae, but having 2 teams of the same regoon in one group is a uneccesary mess

ik
WHAT DO WE WANT?
SMB/ACEND IN GROUP B!
WHEN DO WE WANT IT?
NOW!
WHY?
YES!

why are you trying to reinvent the wheel? the seedings were fair, only bad thing is the 2 EMEA teams part. stop doing some random ass things, riot is not gonna reseed nor are they gonna redo the groups, only thing they might do is switch acend with KRÜ

switch vision strikers with 100T and its 10 times more fair + seeding actually matters

they dont, but they wanted to give 100T and SEN and advantage because they got over them. worst thing that couldve hit Envy is Vision striker + SMB/Acend, wich is fair considering they got placed 3rd. envy is still expected to qualify

ITS NOT FAIRLY SEEDED THO, dude no esport just picks the teams and says ye this team here this one here. everyone is SEEDING the group stages, its not bAlAnCeD having such good teams in the same bracket

ur completly high if u think switzerland is irrelevant

dude u realise with the 2 EMEA teams in one group we couldve gotten Envy, Vision strikers, SMB and Acend in the same group, its just dumb, all of these 4 teams are contedners to win the whole thing

I live in switzerland, so we basically got the best schoolsystem

why are people downvoting, that was literally possible

DUDE who tf cares u put 2 seed 1s in the same group, where is the logic?? u wanna put SEN and gambit in the same group aswell?

its USA u can probably get some random ass excuse and miss out on school, perhaps u dont even need an excuse and teachers wont even care

VISION STRIKERS AND GAMBIT

not the right thing to say with a KRÜ badge tbh

how about just switching acend and KRÜ instead of making it super complicated

what? this dude put 2 first seeds in the same group, how is it good? just switch KRÜ and Acend from the groups we have now and everything is fine

expect it is, one of the playoffs is on the same day as 2 group games, thats why they had the shit format first. but riot will most likely make it so that they dont start with the first playoff game so that no team has to play 2 games a day
