I would love to see Mouz take a win here but it's not going to be easy.

Today has been within what I thought.

Fnatic losing to TF was simply a second-tier EU team losing to a first-tier Chinese team.

Na'Vi dropping a game to Orange... Meh, it's Na'Vi.

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.



Then how do you explain RattleSnake>Quantic?


QUANTIC BAD TIER 3 TEAM


Nah, Quantic was just damned by the TI wild card curse - the region that wins the wild card, loses the finals.

100% success rate from 2 tournaments.

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?

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.


How is Na'Vi and Alliance not obviously ahead of other Western teams? Tier 1 exists to talk about the set of teams that are ahead of other teams in a region.

LGD isn't obviously ahead of TF so why are they Tier 1, but TF is Tier 2?

Tell me the last time TF have won against LGD.


Tell me the last time LGD has won a tournament.

Redbull ECL, one month ago.

And if you are going to insist that LGD is not Tier 1, you are not worth replying to.
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel

Who else could they pick? Gyro's gone, along with AM, Lifestealer, and Alch.

EDIT: Weaver?

Fine, you win. LGD is Tier 1, TF Tier 2.

We're gonna see how well the Tier 1 Chinese team finishes in TI 3.
