Teapot_DougMonkeySuitAsia does not have an iM equivalent that can hang with the top euro or American teams. I'm pretty sure South America doesn't either. Getting them to the next lan world be cool, but from a competitive perspective they'll get rolled.MONSTER (South America's strongest team) proved they could hang out with the top teams in the Showmatch against XTS earlier this year. But for them to be ready to really compete at the highest levels, they'd have to spend some time to scrim against the best NA and EU teams (like iM did before i49) because there is no true competition for them in here (like in Australia).
they were struggling to beat XTS on a brazil server with pings stacked in their favour

That's why I said they would need some time to bootcamp against the best like iM did before i49.

Right now we have only 2 other teams that might take some rounds from them when they are playing with their starting line-up, and they barely scrim with this line-up. Also, the competitive TF2 in general is mostly based on DM in here, so they would need time to adjust playing against really organized teams.
