TSM definitely too high.

I'm more surprised by the relative low placing of other EU teams than the placing of TSM. I mean sure TSM should definitely drop a few places, but considering how close their series were, H2K and UoL are pretty far below the Fnatic that put pressure on SKT
|
I mean, aside from the usual we-should-probably-place-the-top-10-CN/KR-teams-here-and-call-it-a-day argument, this actually isn't too bad. Fnatic definitely best in the west, TSM shouldn't be in the rankings, but the rest ain't [i]too[/t] too bad.

They still underrate LPL when you look at how big of a region bonus they gave Korea.
You'd think they'd have realized they way overrated TSM. They're looking at MSI as a lone stumble instead of Katowice as flukey as fuck. Even speaking as a TSM fan. They have a lot to work on.
Other than that, I just hate that they bother with international rankings pre-worlds.

Which is basically what I said?

We don't have enough international competition to create really good power rankings in LoL, regardless I think it's dumb to put SKT as second and then like four more teams above a team that took SKT to five games. At that point you're just bullshitting.

If we went by one result, TSM wouldn't be on the rankings :^)

OMG and Snake are both better than WE so I don't see why that's surprising ~_~
WE can win, but it'd be an upset if they did. That's what rankings mean.

At this point I wouldn't be surprised at all actually

The people who are consulted are listed right there below each regions rankings lol. Some TL staff/freelancers (ShiroKaisen/Cameron Gilbert, Alex Manisier, Emily Rand, etc.) are included.

Is there some logic that WE losing 0-4 to TSM at IEM Katowice > OMG and Snake who never earned rights to play against TSM getting applied.
Jokes aside, I actually think that this power rank is fine. ahQ should be probably lower, Najin should be out of top-20 with HKES and get replaced by Jin Air/TPA or Jin Air/World Elite but TSM is in fine spot.
Like, being top-15 team in the world is pretty much spot on for current TSM.
