cause the performance of the best team flipped every other tournament for apac. DRX would get the best placement, then then PRX would, then DRX would again, rinse and repeat. then geng came in 2024, but even then for madrid geng was 2nd and prx was 3rd. even to this day, t1 won bangkok, but right now at toronto, t1 didn't even make it and GenG are looking to be the favorites
for emea, every single top placement for emea in 2024 by team heretics
same with fnatic for 2023
the top of apac was all relatively good imo, but they werent ever dominant event after event after event over the other apac orgs
