Red Bull Brasil is weird because they had some good campaigns in the Paulistão, which is a pretty difficult tournament, but they were trash in National Divisions. Also, it still exists, but it's called Red Bull Bragantino II now.

The lower national divisions of the Brazilian championship are some of the hardest tournaments around: you got to travel thousands of kilometers to cities that have no airports, play in absolutely terrible stadiums in awful heat... and while in Europe you would expect the competition to be awful, as the clubs have no money, you got to remember Brazil forms a metric ton of players.

Campeonato Paulista is difficult, but there was a time (I don't know if it's changed) when the rules were crazy and could cause some distortions in the perception of teams' strength.
