The theory from talking to coaches is that EMEA teams run broader playbook preparation — they prepare counter-strategies for more opponent styles before LAN — while Americas teams prepare fewer deeper contingencies. In single-match contexts, the depth wins. In multi-day tournaments where adaptation matters round by round, EMEA's breadth advantage compounds. The Americas meta is individually skilled and well-coordinated but optimized for its own regional context rather than stylistic variability.</p>
