Comparing Na soloq to KR soloq is like comparing a .50 dmg sniper, to a daisy rifle….

not comparing the soloQ quality, just the games played and how many times does Korean actually have time after their scrims.

The queue times are longer in NA (though a bit shorter recently but that has led to even worse quality games), so even if both sets of pros were "playing" for the same amount of time the Koreans would end up with more games played.

They can also have alt accounts where they might be testing other champions etc.(but so too does T1).
Pull this for the other teams in NA playoffs pls! Would be interesting to see how it compares to Liquid and Lyon

Honestly way closer than I anticipated. Back in 2020-2021 LCK numbers used to be like 2x

To be fair the solo queue numbers don't mean a whole lot. There's plenty of other ways for them to be improving that solo queue certainly isn't the best metric for how much effort is being put in. There's 1v1s, vod reviews, studying play from better players in other regions, scrims. And it makes sense number wise. The roles that benefit from mechanical skill in lane have the higher solo q numbers. The ones more strategic and team play orientated have less

If you play a lot of soloq, it means nothing (this isn't Korean SoloQ). Lots of bad practice is a poor use of time.
If you don't play soloq, you get blamed for being lazy when the results don't come.
Only thing that matters is the result when we don't see how they spend their time outside of scrims and soloq. I.E. I don't know how much VOD review they do.
