well, geting smashed by the n#1 team in the world is kinda legit. You can't compare yourself to much higher levels, so you compare to equal levels, so, NA vs EU, as long as it is a healthy competition, it just makes for good fun and chances to improve
theguyshadows I dont wanna to sound "racist" or something but it's enough to look at them and know they are not Americans.Biofrost is Chinese btw and xmithie is from Phillippines.
OMG really? Let's first talk a little bit about 2015 worlds, each EU and NA had 3 teams in the group stage, no NA team advanced from the groups while 2 EU reached semi-finals. Second thing, OG never had a member from outside EU and FNC had 2 koreans (top and jungle) midlaner was Febiven(Netherlands), Rekkles(Sweeden) and YellowStar(France). Oh almost forgot, show me that NA World Champions Skins....oh sorry :( #Feelsbadman
+JustPacPac Alright lemme help you with that. FNC world class material thanks to Huni and RO's synergy. Without them, they are shit. They somehow even managed to lose to C9 in a game where FNC threw super hard and got pentakilled by a D2 player. OG they made it out of group beating TSM with a washed up dyrus and lustboy, and a gankless santorin. They also beat LGD who shit the bed. They beat KT, which was impressive but they were first round exits. OG managed to luck out and face FW. Arguably the worst team to make it out of Groups. C9 and CLG would've easily beat FW. PAIN even beat the FW. Keep thinking they are good, they were just extremely lucky.
I've always supported EU and for 5 seasons straight EU was better but in season 6 after NA has finally taken the majority of the best EU players they're the stronger region right now. Means nothing though cause Korea's gonna anal both regions...
theguyshadows 4:07, You guys have the better food, congratulations. I understand it was an overall victory for Currywurst, just kinda bad wording on my part
its honestly hard to judge which region is better atm because of the different formats. Make Bo3 the standard format. Bo1s dont give enough competitive experience to the players, and Bo2s are just clunky and awkward and skew standings
NA vs EU matchup and why? Top: Huni: god tier top laner. Part of the historic Fnatic season where they were one teamfight away from beating SKT T1 at MSI Jungle: Reignover: god tier synergy with Huni. More professional time to flourish than Trick Mid: Bjergsen: undoubted best mid in NA. Better than the EU mid's this season ADC: Zven: higher kda than Doublelift. more high level tournaments, as Doublelift's success only started after TSM Support: tossup either Mithy or Biofrost: on experience I go Mithy because this is Biofrost's first split with TSM Total: NA: 3 EU: 2 2016 season better teams go to NA with IMT and TSM > G2 and Splyce
+Why is this here? audeck Awwh butthurt EU fan.. hmm the the top 5 teams of NA, TSM 4/5 Americans IMT 3/5 CLG 5/5 Americans C9 5/5 Americans and Liquid 5/5 if this split ends Huni, Reig and Sven are going to be Americans lmao..
Why do I get the feeling that eu is about to he assimilated into n/a for one big league? Eu numbers have been struggling and recently their casters have been casting in N/A. Also they just had a schedule change. As league gets bigger I can see their being 1 lcs. Just like pro sports leagues.
nymx No, actually The Chinese and korean leagues are owned by separate companies who are in partnership with riot. The LCS is owned and hosted by riot, so they have the liberty to do whatever they want with the LCS.
nymx I don't think you understand how partnerships and contracts work. or the world for that matter. Riot games can't just tell the owners of OGN that they are taking over their league and moving their players to america. Do you realize how foolish you sound?
tbh. As a NA player.any na teams can beat eu teams, but they can't beat the top eu teams easily. The low tier eu teams are trash, the high tier eu teams are just a lot better than na. Like fnc, no koreans, still great. And a lot of na players are from eu
Echo Fox would win vs Roccat coz they got Froggen oh wait Froggen is from EU.TSM biggest strenght is theyre midlane God Bjergsen, oh wait hes from EU too :O
Biofrost is Chinese, and Svenskeren is from Denmark, like Bjergsen. The only reason why TSM is good, coz they got Svenskeren who babysits Bjergsen in mid... But I'll give you that, Doublelift is good.
+angelgu323 no macro? Have you seen TSM's games? Their macro is on a different level. Just watch game 1 of TSM vs P1 and you'll see. That was some SKT level shit. The other two games they tilted hard and completely stopped their macro,that's why they lost :(
