Honestly since the missiles dont even refresh or recharge anymore, not a bad idea. Only thing is that his drone would need is a fairly long cd or to recharge off of kills. Though this comes with a different problem of tejo having the cheapest kit util in the game
grand finals:
Random team nobody has ever heard of
VS
Nova Esports
100%
Is this JUST EG Val or is this EG as an org in all esports?
FNC propaganda
They registered in America for VCT and they field a primarily American team. They could've applied to swap to EMEA but they didn't.
I get that the partnered teams were chosen primarily from sustainability and longevity standpoints, but like NRG & G2 are much more deserving than M80 and SRG (100T likely only got selected just because their recognizable and had a good run and SEN got picked because they are the most recognizable team in VCT despite being in a 2 year slump)
NRG & G2 do well in skin-sales and viewership. Particularly because of their die-hard fans or their massive amounts of hatewatchers. They're consistently top-tier teams that play well, are internationally recognizable, and well organized while SRB can't even beat 2G. Sure, SRG is the best Game Changers team undeniably, but that shouldn't prop up SRB into partnership over other American teams.
still a sub-region with 2 champs trophies.
Also Idk why they even call us Gold2 when we can't ever WIN A DAMN GOLD MEDAL. But at least we make international playoffs everytime ☻
I'm not a fan of KRU remaining, I think that spot should've gone to another team like LYON but they're kept around purely for where they are regionally. They have a sizable following already, same for Gentle M8. But KRU should've got the axe, because unlike other namesake teams, KRU sucks. SEN at least had a phase where they were headlining while KRU has just kinda been bad at worst and decent at best.
Not all of them, most of the teams I'm only half-invested in I track from their vlr.gg page instead of the spreadsheet.
(I was basing my
BEST TEAM IN EMEA???? HELL no!off of their mid performance for the past few years)
Who is on M8's team this year? Now I'm curious
I get your point but by that logic, G2 (technically even EDG and XLG count too) would also be good candidates.
All of these teams have consistently made international events and remain consistently dominant in their regions. Sure, PRX has masters but EDG has a champs trophy and G2 has the most stage/kickoff wins and has never been grouped internationally. PRX is definitely a good contender, but for those reasons alone PRX isn't the only one who is a candidate for consistency
G2 is sustainable, draws in a huge audience (thanks to megafans or the massive amounts of hatewatchers) and is consistently good.
NRG is consistently good and draws in a sizable fanbase
SEN kinda sucks but they're one of the most recognizable faces in VCT
100T lowk could be replaced by SRB, I feel like the only reason they were kept was because of their generational turnaround for the 2026 season.
SRB may be loyal to riot but that shouldn't guarantee shit, especially since SRB as a team is nowhere near as strong as the other American teams (with the exceptions of like KRU & SEN)
Sizable fanbase? Sure it's pretty big.
BEST TEAM IN EMEA???? HELL no!
I agree with -FS, +DRX, & I'd be fine with -KRU +SRB/M80
But -LEV +M80 is ridiculous.
Keeping the undeniably better Argentinian team might centralize the fans from the region rather than split them between two teams. Also KRU kinda sucks but LEV is semi-consistent and has a decent sized following. Sure, M80 and SRB have been loyal to riot but genuinely loyalty shouldn't guarantee shit, LEV still deserves that spot. Lowk replace 100T with either them fuck that org, only reason theyre still here is because they performed stupidly well out of the blue recently.
Some old mouse I dug up out of an old wires bin 6-some years ago. The logo and info is all scratched to shit I couldn't even identify it if I tried.
But hey if it clicks, good enough.
Best team EVER? Best team consistently throughout VCT's years? Or Best team RIGHT NOW?
Ever: i haven't followed VCT closely enough for longe enough to choose. TH circa '24 was real good but I couldn't pick just one best team OAT.
Consistently: Globally, hard to say. G2 in americas, PRX in APAC, XLG/EDG in CN, cant think of a consistent team in EMEA throughout their whole history.
Now: Yeah probably LOUD.
T1 lowk locked in and played really well in the latter half. And a 1 map lead is never a guaranteed win, after all G2 came back from a 0-1 facing elimination down 9-3 on map 2 TWICE B2B in this year's stage 2 alone. Also the maps were all super close too it wasn't like G2 just rolled over and got 0-3'd. G2 only had 2 series points they lost it's not like they sold a +5 lead they hardly had a lead at any point throughout the final 2 maps. (Not including OTs because both teams had plenty of OT series point opportunities). That was just a good ass game
ok not the 12-11 round on Pearl ts was just sad
Bangkok wasn't embarrassing that was a good ass game it was just heartbreaking.
London was embarrassing af tho I'll give you that
That would've been nice, but I can't think of all too many Eastern Euro teams that are particularly good. The only ones I can think of are NAVI and EP, but lowk NAVI is pretty shit and EP isn't super well known
You put all of those teams but not Gen.G???? They were only good through like the 2023-2024 seasons. Also DRX over XLG and G2 is a little ridiculous
org thats from my country = i must meatride it 🤖🤖
I get that GE was huge in India but like their pull out is pretty shitty
also you're entitled to dislike teams from your country (ahem 100T ahem Sentinels ahem)
TS getting a spot over NS RedForce is genuinely so stupid but probably gonna happen.
Why would they partition it by regions and not by actual prevalence or talent 😭
HE DID IT! AFTER 11 TRIES HE FINALLY GOT IT!!!
congrats on VIT for winning, courtesy of cameran yet again
I'll give em top 10. 3rd best is insane
0 for 5 you'll get one right someday I believe in you
and now this guy has just doomed 100T
congrats on VIT for making it to the grand finals
If T1 loses to JDG that's just real sad, I mean T1 isn't a dominant team by any means but JDG is undeniably the weakest team in Champs this year.
T1 2-0 JDG
EDG has a better chance, but Global is still a good team and gave Vitality a real good run for their money. But if any Chinese team is gonna take a map, its gonna be EDG
GE 2-1 EDG
G2 actually beating PRX for the first time in like 2 years????
THE ... least interesting match of the upcoming 8 but it certainly is a match.
Liquid is the EMEA version of G2. Great in their league but choke internationally. 90% chance they get grouped like the last two times they went to champs
Realistically, none of the CN teams are making it past group stage. Not a single one won a map thus far. When it comes to APAC though, realistically, PRX & Nongshim are most likely to make it to playoffs, If an APAC team were to get grouped, its gonne be GE or T1, but even still they're gonna beat out their group's CN team in the upcoming eliminations. Probably gonna be a 4-3-1-0 split of regions for playoffs.
I think the GE fans are more intense than the LOUD Brazilian fans atp
Genuinely the worst power rankings oat, how is PCIFIC not last and LEV in 1st??????? All these rankings are lowk so stupid what is riot smoking
My brother just another me.
except for Liquid & maybe KC
Me when I spread lies and misinformation.
EMEA did NOT win half of the things you just listed.
Champions Istanbul 2022 was won by LOUD not FNATIC
Champions Los Angeles 2023 was won by Evil Geniuses not Team Heretics
Champions Paris 2025 was won by NRG (TEAM LIQUID GOT GROUPED THEY DIDNT EVEN MAKE PLAYOFFS)
Masters London 2026 was won by LEVIATAN not KC
EWC Paris 2026 was won by 100Thieves
The ONLY champs won by EMEA was the first VCT Champs in 2021 by a team that 90% of modern VCT viewers haven't even heard of (Acent).
Americas has won 3/5 ('22, '23, '25)
China has won 1/5 ('24)
EMEA has won 1/5 ('21)
EMEA is a good region, but historically Americas have just been the best
