Oh yeah, can you imagine an LCS team against Gen G? I still think FNC can pull off a win.

FNC are indeed putting up a proper fight, which is very :unsmith: to see when playing against a team of GenG's caliber, but it's just not enough

So does any western team take a single game off the LPL or LCK?

I am not much of a FNC fan but I was genuinely impressed with some of their plays until they threw it away on silly decisions or poor macro. Fun games to watch at least.

They should have 2 slots next year instead of the LCS sending the top 2 from clown college each year. Heck, make it performance based on the previous year. Top 4 regions at MSI 2024 get 2 slots in 2025.

honestly totally unexpected for me with how much the PCS has been diminished over the years. it wasn't so long ago that TSM was able to get maple on the cheap from what seemed like a second class region, but this team brought the old FW/TPA fire back in a big way, and i'm genuinely sad they weren't able to pull it over the finish line

ashley had an interview with bwipo where the guy looks more gutted than i think i've ever seen him. by all appearances, he worked drat hard in the leadup to MSI grinding soloqueue and was taking the whole thing seriously, so getting utterly crunched like they did cratered his mental even moreso than the others. it's refreshing to see someone taking direct responsibility for personal mistakes like that, but it's still a brutal watch

I feel like even if the business infrastructure suffers at times, you're never going to be able to completely kill a region with playable ping to CN and KR for soloQ and scrims. Folding Japan in definitely doesn't hurt either.

Agreed, though it would be funny if they got their collapse out of the way early, only to drop to the lower bracket and ruin anyone's hopes of getting out of it
