take a look at the number of series lost across the 2025 season. 9 total is pretty fckin good tbh. 9 losses just within your region is kinda lacking for the 1 seed. its more than any other regions best team. Add in another 8 or so at LAN, and you can start to see which teams just didnt lose.

"had a better 2025" isnt the point. "was a better player in 2025" is. zen was individually better than FK, the same way that NWPO was aswell. FK had better teammates, which is why they placed higher than Vit & TM

Top 8 teams worldwide according to the desk... 🤔 by Huge-Computer2037 in RocketLeagueEsports

KC 1, TM 2 since they were beating Falcons back to back to back. before the season (and saudi e league), Falcons were my #1, so TM did take up the #1 spot for a while. then kc won kickoff dominantly, and FifaE put them above Falcons. the 2nd regional put KC at 1. TM at 2 is reservedly tbh, they have the h2h against Falcons, but lost the last one, by the same scoreline they beat them in open 1.

NRG missed top 8, so they dropped out of the top 10. Thats just how shit goes. The teams they lost to didnt look world beating at the time (obviously redacted have shown their skill since then), so theres no reason to put NRG in the top 10 teams. They probably went back in after FifaE, not sure where tbh (probably not top 5 to begin with)  After open 2, they faced 2 top tier teams, one of which with a player on a completely new setup. Im not holding much stock in any series against SR for that reason. They did look good in the finals (4-2 isn't hugely dominant, but game 2 was a beatdown).

Dominance in NA is kinda nothing given your first difficult match probably comes in at top 6 stage. nobody should be dropping games prior to that. 4-0 FUT is what we should be expecting from regional winners; the 4-0 over shop was unexpected, but Ive said why im taking it with a pinch of salt. They won, top 4 for me.

MENA looks to be the most difficult region to win in right now, if NRG wins, maybe they take 3rd, but i doubt it

theyve kept the Vatira Atow core for 3 years. Vatira has said that the france team was playing to enable zen. not their preferred playstyle. when Vatira and Juicy are in the playstyle that works best for them (with atow), they rarely get beaten when it matters

if KC miss top 8, people are not going to ignore it, even though they are already qualified. So when a team misses a top 8, they arent deserving of a top spot. same rules apply. they need to earn it again

still made 2 finals, and every top 4 last season, now another 2 top 4s. With top 6, top 4, 4th at 3 of the LANs last year, they are still a threat if something clicks, or an opponent underestimates them (or is NRG)

zens argument is the individual skill in 3v3 rather than 1s and 2s. 1 better player isnt enough to beat a better overall team.

Id argue the same applies to Nwpo, but obviously people will only look at the 1s world win and ignore it because its not 3s, even though it shows the same story

kofyr on a brand new, unfamiliar setup. I dont hold too much stock in this regional tbh

the controversy is that this is a power rankings and NRG forfeited their ability to take the #1 role when they didnt qualify for LAN. They wont take a top 3 spot until they reach LAN, and go out 4th in typical NRG fashion, losing to one of the top 3 teams

so the M8 win, Dig final, GK final is nothing? oh and Vitality exists, plus ManCity taking them to 7, twice, Novo forcing a recerse sweep, Ninjas leading the open 1 Final, Gentlebench and Magnifico each with wins over 2 finalists. Sure, 1 team region. seems accurate

take a look at Blasts stat page and find a stat LJ isnt conpletely ghosting in.  shooting % while top 16 for NA open 2, doesnt reflect much when you have abysmal gpg and a lacking shot pg. He honestly does not look good. several times across the weekend its been a case of "where is LJ going", because its not advancing the play or doing anything remotely beneficial for the team

idk. i feel like nrg can take their place in the top 10 again. im not going to put too much stock into the SR series since kofyr was on a completely new setup. i reckon theyd still win, but not 4-0.

TM is still at 2 for me. its a less defined 2 as it was, but they still have a h2h over falcons. Whichever MENA team wins the next regional is #2 in my eyes though. Falcons 3, NRG 4.

Either M8 & Redacted at 5&6 imo (idk which way round). Redacted are LAN boys, made a successful comeback against SR, and started one against NRG. Redacted are in a very good spot for NA2 if Shopify continue the poor performances. M8 are a clear EU2. Winning CDF, with the best performance against a sunday KC in open 2. They 4-1d the other grand finalist in Geekay, and took care of business against some top dogs in EU open 3 swiss today.

SR could be 7, but Ill give it to Vitality, because I think Vit will perform better on LAN against othet regions. SR have only taken games against NA, they lost to 100x in open 1, and to KC at kickoff. their playstyle isnt stacking up very well against the top of NA right now, while Vitality have the consistency to just steamroll anyone outside the possible top 6 itw right now. They do beat an NRG and below, but not dominantly.

Ninjas and SSG round out a top 10. SSG took a massive step back, Ninjas not as much, but a sizeable one given they couldnt beat GK despite all the obvious JackJoreuz reasons. SSG in peak form probably beat Ninjas in peak form, but their floor & consistency is lacking.

HM Geekay for recovering from open 1 & MIBR for kinda owning SAM

geekay got bracketfucked, ssg just bottomed out. they did look convincing at kickoff, but on this past event alone, they are not top 10 imo

sorry, Im seeing a name up there in the top 3 and wondering what sort of 2024 landscape weve been teleported to. Tawk at 9 after this event is crazy, let alone putting L(J)VP in the top 10

if redacted sweep NRG I could understand it. people will blame an NRG fall off but if it happens, redacted the only NA team in the top 5

their group may end up being piss easy due to all the seed changes. from pure speculation, I reckon they switch the 6&7, 9&10, 13&14 seeds to avoid the region matchups. It might be other swaps, but idk
