@Azrael• last Wednesday at 6:43 PMLoading...Hello everyone !
As you might know (or not), our apex team based in Japan is heading toward the **ALGS playoffs**, and I thought it would be good to make a *(not so)* short post about the circuit, the point system and obviously __**why we're the best team and we're going to win it. **__
Quickly, the ALGS (stands for Apex Legends Global Series) is made of 5 regions :
- APAC (Asia and Pacific) North
- APAC South
- EMEA (Europe and Middle East and Africa)
- North America
- South America (not a Pro League but still a region on its own)
Each region is made of **30 teams**, divided in 3 groups, and the matches are Group vs Group. It's a triple round robin, played in "match serie", consisting of 6 games.
Each team will play 6 match series, so a total of 36 games.
Next step is the regional finals, with the **20 best teams** of the regular season which will compete in **match point format** : first to 50 points needs to get a Top 1 to win it all (points depend of the number of kills and your position in the game at the end, a bit too complex to explain here, so it'll be for an other time).
As I've said before, we're the best out there so you won't be surprised when I tell we won the APAC North League Split 1 *(not the finals, mistakes were made that day but you can't always be at your best)*. But what's more to it ? Yes we won in our regional league, but what makes me so sure we'll win the playoffs against the finest teams of the other regions ?
First of all, because we have a sick jersey, and I highly recommend you getting one. Probably one of the best sport apparel I've ever bought. [Get your here](https://fnatic.com/collections/2024-pro-kit).
But the real thing is that we were the first to achieve something. Something that was in the rules since the existence of ALGS, but so difficult that so far no one, even the best teams of the previous years (and trust me there were some really good ones) couldn't manage to achieve. ALGS rules state that :
> In the Pro League Regular Season and the Winners Bracket Finals of the PLQ, LCQ, Split 1 and 2 Playoffs, and Championship events, bonus points can be earned by Teams according to the following criteria:
> - One (1) bonus point will be awarded if the Team that finished in 1st place has a margin of victory of fifty (50) points or greater over the 2nd place Team.
> - One (1) bonus point will be awarded to any Team that wins 50% or more of their matches in a match series. For each match won over the 50% threshold, that Team will be awarded an additional bonus point.
And we did it ! [On the 4th of February, during the match serie Group A vs Group C](https://battlefy.com/apex-legends-global-series-year-4/pro-league-split-1/asia-pacific-north/6536ed75455e500ecaa96fcb/round/4/match/4?game=all), we managed to win 3 of the 6 games played that day (game 1, 3 and 6). A never done before feat, allowing us to get this precious bonus point. All of this while averaging 10 kills per game (there are 60 players in the lobby, so max 57 kills *(yes you can revive players but let's keep it simple today)*).
Now that you have read this, what do you think ? Will we win the split 1 playoffs ? Are we the best Apex team out there ? Let me know below.
