R.I.P. Predicitions

EU was always going to be the most interesting of the qualifiers.

Simply because the tier 2, as it were, scene in EU is the most stacked of any region. Like of the 10 teams there, there's maybe 2 or 3 you would want to discount (Yellow Submarine, though they played really well, BU, and maybe LC) before it started, and every single team put on good performances, even if they weren't hugely consistent.

I'm sad that NiP and Alliance didn't get through, because they were my favourites, but it's still been a great group stage. I just hope the teams stay together and improve rather than disband, because both teams are solid, they just need polishing. Like Era for one has said that NiP were not a TI5 team, they were going to be a TI6 team. And I'd love that, I'd love to see these two teams grow to become some of the best in the world, rather than just gg disband like what happened after last TI.
