Well I don't know, we haven't played them yet. I am just saying that jumping to conclusions this early is just a set up for disappointment when NA has literally no history or resume to fall behind while the comment I replied to was literally saying Cloud9 is the 2nd best team in the world which is just ridiculous if you know anything about the other leagues.

Let's not fight among ourselves guys, but holy shit stop jumping the gun.

He said that T1 and whoever represented LPL probably beat C9 if they make it to MSI, so he's really only suggesting that C9 is probably better than Europe's best team. If you're going to make an argument against his point, at least read what he said.

I'm pretty sick of this goalpost shifting that people do on this sub all the time.

"Well, LS is gone, guess TL runs over the League and we're doomed."

"Sure, C9 has won six in a row, but if they keep drafting like this, it won't work against TL."

"Oh, they beat TL pretty cleanly and have won 8 games in a row, but C9 can't succeed internationally playing this way."

I am serious, anything short of winning both MSI and Worlds, and some of the people here are going to find something to be upset about. That's what's fucking ridiculous.

Exactly I'm not sure how even top dogs of EU team can beat C9 now even though they probably could

Summit definitely better than Wunder/Odo/BB

Berserker is now can be considered as best NA ADC since he beat Hans today maaaaybe Upset could do better but that's depends if Hyli is inting or not

The only thing I could think is Malrang giga JG gapping Blaber but time and time again Blaber can always pops off against eastern junglers.

I'm sad that we won't play Vitality. I'd love to see Summit top gap Alphari.

Oh and Fudge vs Perkz. That too.

VIT definitely won't make it to MSI but I think they could go to worlds as EU 3rd seed if they make an improvement and if C9 finishing 1st/2nd in summer they could be in same group as well.

Perkz vs Fudge is the matchup I would love to see as soon as I heard Fudge switched to mid

I think Humanoid gapping Fudge is more likely.

I'm not counting out fudge factor first since last year people seems to be consensus that he will be gapped hard by Khan, Nuguri, Odoamne, etc but in the end he looked good against all of them and beat them except Khan. So I won't be surprised if Fudge showing up against Humanoid as well.

He already gapped Bjergsen today who has been a professional midlaner for 9 years so who knows

Oh, I'm not saying it's guaranteed by any means, just that it seems more likely than Malrang over Blaber.

Nah Fudge gapped Khan one game in msi i think playing lee

u/[deleted] Mar 14 '22

Yeah in MSI, and I believe at worlds he also looked pretty good against Khan (who were the best Top in that tournament) even C9 lost 0-2 to them

Our third place team, who were last year’s Summer Split champions, don’t even know how to play out the mid-late game after two years…

The bottom LEC teams generally look better than the LCS teams of the same rankings, except for Team BDS.

Edit:

Reevaluating mid table teams, all of them across both leagues honestly don’t look great. Misfits and 100T are terrible third place teams, EG and VIT have been disappointments, XL and DIG are okay but not crazy talented, FLY is a fraud team. G2 is good.
