NA may be better overall, but the top of EMEA are extremely good. The reason why EMEA and pacific look so bad is because it is only now that we are seeing the divide between the best of the best in EMEA compared to those just below them. I won't say that EMEA is a one team region, but theres definitely only like 25 players in EMEA that are good enough to compete on the world stage and they have been divided into 10 different teams. That might explain why so many of the EMEA teams look so bad, whereas in americas, while there might also only be like 35 top players in the world at most, only 25 of them (more like 23) actually get to play in franchising, so the talent is less spread out. Also, brazil and latam have some good teams because all the best players have been put into 2 or 3 teams. So it makes more sense that NA (and Americas league) will be better and NA ascension will also be better too. Finally, the reason why pacific league is so bad (or mediocre) is because japan was a one team region, korea was a one team region, and SEA was only really dominated by PRX and XIA. Therefore, Americas will be the strongest and most entertaining league for a while.
