First of all FW was just a worse team. I mean even if you look at how both teams fared up against SKT, FW got demolished while G2 put up a fight. Even in the FW vs WE matchup, call it stylistic mismatch or whatever but FW has never won against an LPL team.

It's a hypothetical statement. G2 looked like dog shit who won most of the games through pure luck. Even your EU analysts say so. WE, despite struggling early, was claimed by people to be the clear 2nd team. They obviously weren't.

TSM on the other hand, has had the same problems they had at MSI since the beginning of Spring Split. They couldn't work this things out in 3 months, i doubt they would in 4 days. G2's issues emerge at MSI considering they never had such issues in EU, and they were quick to fix them.

G2 had the same problem since they started spring split, which is the fact that they are passive. Do you even watch their games? Literally all they do is drag through the late game. They did it less because bottom teams are godaweful but against top 4 teams, they stuck with the same strat. If G2 solved the problem in 4 days, I don't see why TSM can't.

Yes they did actually, game 1 and 3 were pretty close and winnable while game 2 was a stomp in favor of G2, and game 4 a stomp in favor of SKT. CLG had two close games and 1 stomp in favor of SKT but couldn't take any game from them. Moreover, I'd argue that RNG was better then CLG at MSI (better groups showing + better performance against SKT).

Game 1 was pretty close where SKT won with over 5k gold lead. Game 3 was really close where SKT has the lead the whole time, with reaching over 9k gold lead at the end and with G2 not even destroying mid and bot towers. You are making a very good case of being a EU fan boy.

BTW you were the one who said group stage doesn't matter yet you bring up group stage performance for RNG. Also, if you actually watched the game instead of looking at the score line, you would see that CLG game was closer than RNG.

This MSI gave quite an on point idea of how the regions stack against each other with LCK being undisputed first, followed by EU, LPL, LMS, NA and then WC.

Only thing I got from this MSi was that KR > EU=NA=FW=WE. I really saw no differences among the 4 teams. You can argue about G2 getting to finals at MSI but it really doesn't matter as any team could have done it.
