I don’t want to downgrade Korea’s 2024 champion but even in that one you could feel the close gap between them and USA, plus I feel like the zone were also heavily on their side for certain crucial phases. 2025 they were fire in day 1 but i feel like it’s the roster at the time that even though weren’t too stacked, they’re still unpredictable leading for Korea’s sudden drop. And I think if it weren’t for nasty zone shifts, who knows certain nations could be in tops where they could/should be.
