    Even if they stop day raiding, Method and Exorsus will still continue to raid everyday. And they are simply better skill wise that all the other guilds behind them, so yeah it's still between those 2 even if KJ last 2 weeks

    I'm not saying Method can't take world first, but using the reasoning "they've taken it before" in a game like WoW when it's rare to have the same roster into each tier is silly. Method can take world first because they have a really strong roster right now AND great leadership.
    In the original statement it wasn't used as an argument. Merely asking if they are going to be 'taking it again' is factually correct since they have before. Nothing more, nothing less.

    thats way back man, even sco back then had a job it was one of the reasons guild split, he wasnt committing as much as the others so he quit and dedicated himself to streaming and running method brand

    Americans make up for a big portion of the playerbase so the amount of kills go up kinda fast if the raid tuned low enough for Americans.
    Do you think the average player skill is higher in EU or something? At the top end yeah there are more EU guilds willing to compete, there are only a couple NA guilds, or guilds from any other region for that matter, that even put in that much effort. For the average raider though there is no skill difference between the regions.

    Its far easier to find 20 sick quality players that can play for ~30 hours a week, then it is to find 20 sick quality players that play for 80 hours a week. So there would deffo be more competition.

    Except the glorious Finnish Master Race, of course
    You're not allowed to discuss conspiracy theories on mmo-champion, which makes me wonder what they're trying to hide.

    But by the time Method and Exorsus stop day raiding (after like 2 weeks), their lead due to time invested will be so big that it's realistically impossible for other guilds to catch up, even if they were of equal (or even better) skill.

    One day has passed and people already talking about next reset...I think at least one of the guilds will kill Avatar today and will have plenty of time on KJ. Even if he survives till next reset, top guilds will still raid 10-12 hours a day, they'll just start later and go on until late at night.

    It still doesn't change the fact that my original question and wording was entirely legitimate. Like, what's the issue here?

    And comparing it to bringing up guilds that haven't been in the world first race for ages and are not right now, is just a whole new level of retarded in terms of argumentation.

    They aren't, they have a sub guild apart of the roster of "old raiders"(not so many anymore) people are just confused when they see it and think its splits.

    Method has taken W1st before, ergo it's entirely viable to say "will they take the race again".

    Exorsus right now are splitting smth.

    Must be hard for Method and even harder for the rest that Exorsus while going casual this tier still goes for world first.

    Sco should just announce that Method is also going casual by taking an extra break during progression to troll Twitch chat. Now they're back on equal footing again.

    If I remember it was a "casual" part of the Guild (unless those went to their own Guild) who kill those bosses weekly.
    At least I remember Jpptheinsane saying that once. Seems like Hyperia went casual too ? ^^

    If Exorsus or Method are taking words like casual in their mouth its still 500% more time investment than a actual casual would invest. Instead of day-raiding they just raid 6-7 hours in the evening each day.
