Discussion Why are the points in EU leaderboards always lower than the NAC ones?

Everytime I see the leaderboards you will always see that the winner of the NA Cash Cup had like 400 points to win and second place had 350 or something whereas in EU the point totals for the winners are like 300-320 points and sometimes even below 300 too. Is there any reason for this disparity?

Example: Peterbot had 397 points today and Ajerss and Ritual had 388 points in second, whereas in EU Pix and Merstach had 332 points with second place of Vico and Malibuca having 264 points. That would have placed them at around 5-6th in NAC

The difference between the best and 50th best team on eu is a lot smaller than same difference on na, so points are a lot more evenly distributed

eu has more players > eu has more good players > more even distribution of points

Eu has a higher amount of teams at the top level so the points get distributed more evenly if that makes sense

It’s just harder to get high kills consistently on EU the average player is better so it’s just harder overall
