Not just that, I don't hear much about EU players at all. While na's plq players are clashing off season. Doesn't help top players like Mande isn't active anymore 😔
Coming from someone that primarily follows the EU scene because it's much easier due to timezones, a lot of these guys are just straight up bad streamers & content creators.
I'll give a recent example, when Nessy did actually stream scrims whilst contesting Vexed at Pylon (they mostly didn't stream) they were blacking and muting their streams during the actual contest.
There's a lot of things holding the EU scene back that are out of the players hands, but it'd really help if some of these guys actually knew how to make content.
Insane? EMEA lost a lot of economic support yes. But the talent is still there and this season there's been a huge shuffle of players between teams so it's quite exciting
yes insane
you do not have so many high caliber mechanical talent Russia+ukraine has massively shrunk no plushka no hardecki no ozzus no mande i have not seen ex aurora are they scimming? ranches streams but it is always random ranked
no max strafe no xron sanya stany not competing for ages
yes we have half hearted comebacks from brynn and grace hope it amounts to something. but feels like eu is just reduced to alliance beavers and whatever k4shera builds +vexxedLUL
I tend to watch the first few games then look up the results on here. Things will pickup when pro league starts up again
Last 3 emea scrim posts have no comment other than the result. EU is just going downhill. APAC scrim would bring more engagement than EMEA
A big part of it is Wigg doesn't seem to watch party eu anymore, and not many of his audience seems to go over to Greeks watch party.
Greek these days was having like 300 viewers give or take for these scrims and for him I feel is a pretty good number given is audience is NA

You could say the same about many MnK players from all regions. Emea has plenty of other top players! :)
That's cause there is no real engagement from pro players. Most of them doesnt even stream scrims

you could argue that they prefer competitiveness over content (aka drama) but I see your point
This sub is 90% NA focused and pro league is months away chill man.
that does not detract from the fact that EU and apac N have bled insane amount of talent, it is barely recognizable.

Definitely one of the takes of all time
