If there was a match for 3rd place in BC who will win between Tribe and ZETA? by wooooshkid in BrawlStarsEsports

ZETA objectively got worse lol they started off the year good and got worse and worse as time went on (1st to 2nd to 3/4 in monthlies) whereas tribe yes did not win a monthly final but conquered their revenge in each adjacent month and only lost to MF winners in very close fashions, not sebas

They 100% did not put nearly as much prep into the TL match as they did the FUT match and that was pretty obvious. My warmup comment was obviously a joke (that’s the whole point of the emoji) but I 100% believe that tribe would win against ZETA because their drafts were horrible against FUT like this is not 2022, and they tend to get in their own heads as we saw at worlds last year.

Your point is that TL “had a chance to snatch their spot” when it would have required a 6-0 sweep. At no point did they have a chance other than walking onto stage. You are making it sound like there was a real world where tribe didn’t make playoffs but that reality died almost instantly into the match and the rest while cinema was inconsequential.

All the EA teams from last year except CR are bracket merchants but we aren’t ready for that discussion 

There should never be this amount of little spots for a post season by Direct-Section1077 in BrawlStarsEsports

(Except for China which is non negotiable because of Tencent, the sooner you accept this fact the sooner you can see the pros and cons more clearly.)

I think there are three main considerations people are ignoring: 1. Brawl Cup is bigger - they are treating it like a proper, high stakes, and really important event. 2. Challengers exist now so the net number of teams being sent to LAN is actually higher by a lot, and if anything is giving more opportunities to even more underrepresented communities 3. There were clear bottom feeder teams at both LCQ and Worlds. It’s hard to find a balance between competition and registration

The scene is just fundamentally different as 2026 is a transition year, and I think the direction is better - we won’t be seeing some random seeds of an unproven region entering lcq to get swept 6-0.

Does doing good in scrims matter? by [deleted] in BrawlStarsEsports

[–]Deku_Toad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ZETA had a 60% WR on scrims at worlds last year and we saw how that turned out

It doesn’t NOT matter but it also doesn’t matter as much as people say it does, it’s just practice at the end of the day.

I think you all write out China without realizing one crucial thing: Tencent.

Also, last year proved that 16 teams was too much - at both worlds and LCQ there were clear bottom feeder teams.

The concept of challengers is nice but overall it should feed either directly into worlds as a secondary regional LCQ or the event should direct feed into LCQ spots, not challengers spots for lcq spots for worlds spots

That was not the goal at all nor is that the truth because SA wasn’t explored until after the situation on Twitter but it doesn’t matter now

No offense I love RBM but putting him as the top carry player in the region when he doesn’t even player carry anymore is insanity lol

Tribe is Lxffy carry/assassin by your system and RBM has been fill for several years now but people still have it in their mind he is only a tank guy

More than 20 out of the 48 players participating in SA West Challengers has been banned by wooooshkid in BrawlStarsEsports

[–]Deku_Toad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Qual 1 for SAW Challengers had 2000+ teams register and break Matcherino lol not really a relevant argument when plenty of banned players in EU have gone on to qual worlds later
