She is a professional from FOX News. Despite how much I dislike FOX New's biased opinions, she is worthy of being followed on Twitter.

Dignitas winning RattleSnakes simply shows Western tier 2 teams are still > Chinese tier 2 teams.

IMO this bodes well for Na'Vi and Alliance finals.



So Na'Vi and Alliance are the tier 1 teams? who else would you label as Tier 1 Westerns?


There are no other. Presently Na'Vi and Alliance are the only Tier 1 Western teams.

then LGD is the only chinese tier 1 team, the others are far too inconsistent


LGD that went 6-6 in groups before Day 3 and narrowly avoided a loss to Dignitas in the tiebreakers? Okay.

...

Yeah, because we label teams based on their TI performance. You even didn't get what opretown was implying.


We rank them based on the last 30 minutes played.

Rattlesnake is tier 6 eastern, Dignitas tier 1 western.

Right?

RSnakes are 2.5 - 3rd tier in China.



They're tier 2, lest you want to argue TF is tier 2.

They're around the same level that Rising Stars and VG is.



Which are 3rd tier teams.


not quiet sure what Tier 2 teams are then, basically Rising Stars and VG are right behind LGD, IG, TongFu, DK which are all t1



LGD/iG/DK are the tier 1 teams.

Tongfu is the only 2nd tier team, although they are now pushing their way into tier 1. Prior to D2SL though, they definitely were not a tier 1 team.


TF is in no way a 2nd tier team.

They won DSL 3-0 against DK, and go even vs. every top Chinese team.



Prior to DSL no one would even put Tongfu close to tier 1. Flash in the pan performance does not make you a tier 1 team. Consistent performance across a long stretch of time does.


tongfu had really good results. semi finale g-league, narrowly missed g1, won DSL in a dominant fashion.
tongfu and LGD are the two teams to look out for.


Like I said, flash in the pan performances do not make you a tier 1 team. If Tongfu continues to play well, then of course they will move up into tier 1; you can't automatically put them up there because of 2 tournament results.

Right?

Common, it shouldn't be that hard. opretown implied that Azarkon ranks Tier 1 Western team only those who have won Chinese teams in the international tournaments, not the win-lose distribution in their natural scene, so he gets instant right with his statement.

Before TI3, mouz was at least 1.25 tier, go figure.
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel
