in the section discussing the out come, it says "Once again, the final has showcased the domination of South Korea, with China trailing at number 2, being eliminated at the semi-final stage. Although Europe and North America, had representation in the Quarter Finals, their results cannot hide the difference between them and the two best regions mentioned earlier."

the primary issue is with "their results cannot hide the difference between them and the two best regions mentioned earlier". While korea is widely recognized as the best, it should be sighted. however as far as i am aware there is absolutely no consensus that china possesses such a gulf in skill difference to not only be place well above NA and EU but also to be essentially equated as almost Koreas rival. this is not the case, it is widely grouped with na and eu as the best of those three but still close to them in skill level and not as some korea level group as implied by the wording of this sentence.

even if i am wrong, there is still the major issue that this sentence provides opinions uncited as fact. it needs to cite the statements of an expert or reword it.

there is also the issue that the worlds finals is not ment to determine the best region, merely each team competes for themselves. the finals cannot be used as the end all be all for determining the hierarchy of the regions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:500:C200:C40:C5C5:CE41:77C8:1BB4 (talk) 11:38, 8 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
