Why is Nemesis last place and especially behind reckless and caps, im a huge reckless fan, but imo , Nemesis is much better player mechanically, this guy is by far the only one who have adapted so fast to his team for such a short period of time. It cost caps 1 year to adapt and he became this level his 2nd year with fnatic and now looks weaker with g2. Nemesis don't have even 1 year with fnc yet , and he outplayed caps couple of times solo, so I think he is better than caps, just give him a little bit more time.

Why is Nemesis last place? This is a top 20 list, these are the top 20 players of the entire tournament. Caps has been overall better than Nemesis - when Febiven solo killed Faker in lane, was Febiven better than Faker? No - the same logic applies here. Caps has his turbo-int moments but he's dominated LEC for the past 2 years. The reason why I didn't put Nemesis higher was exactly as you said - he hasn't even played for a year. I'm impressed by Nemesis (enough to put him over mids like Chovy, Xiaohu, and Rookie) but in summer I got the feeling that the mid lane meta really favored him.

I'm going to assume you think G2 are going to win it all, since you placed their entire roster on your top 20.

I have two opinions on your list. First, you overvalue G2. They have a few top notch stars, but I'm going to say NO team has a full 5 man roster ranking in the 20 best in the world. Second, I really don't think supports are in a patch where they are able to be among the 20 best in the world. The game is so fast paced now that they basically have one tool or purpose to assist the carries who have to determine the fight. I don't see any supports decisively deciding matches.
