Unlikely. Who would SU get their wins over?

SU

That was your typo.

if you're saying it's impossible for a team to beat themselves, G2 would like to disagree

[animorpherv1]

I think Dumbledoge could play 2 games of Bard at the same time and carry them both!

That wasn't a typo. I amended my statement about the top 4.

True enough.

Also, are we watching the same CLG vs. RNG game? Because CLG is getting smashed.

[Voidedmafia]

I stand corrected.

HOLY FUCK HOW DID THEY WIN THAT?!

[zoraster]

they definitely shouldn't have, but they did have significant scaling on their side.

Scaling or not, they should NOT have won that game. THey lost that game before 30 minutes, and I just can't understand how RNG threw what should've been an almost basic victory after that ace+Baron.

[pickemgenius]

and wuxx is a dipshit which caused everyone else on rng to forget how to play the game completely.

thankfully for us as I can worry way way less about NA now that we'll have a 1 seed at worlds.

Still, Stixxay is more than proving himself as doublelift's successor. Daresay he's doing even better than DL ever did.

P-EDIT: Still, they could've turned it around at 5th dragon. The inhib fight was a mess, but salvageable. When they failed to get 5th dragon, the game broke.

Unfortunately, G2 has underperformed so much this tourney. If they could've just played better than getting two wins off of Supermassive, I could more believe that SKT wouldn't be in the top four. Granted, their biggest matchup in SKT is gone (I think), but there's no way they can beat RNG.

[animorpherv1]

All matchups left before semis:

1st (in ~30 mins) - RNG vs. SUP
2nd - FW vs. CLG
3rd - SKT vs. G2
4th - SUP vs. FW
5th - G2 vs. CLG
6th- RNG vs. SKT

[Voidedmafia]

So the only way G2 stands a chance is if they beat SKT. I can see RNG going 2-0 against SKT, but G2 aren't CLG. Shame, though. Origen would've had a better showing.

GOODBYE TIP GOODBYE RENEGADES GOODBYE TDK

[animorpherv1]

TRIPLE KILL

Richard Lewis taking riot's side means shit is REALLY fucked up, too.

[BROseidon]

Oh my god wtf was ren doing?

Cliff notes for those who don't trawl the lolesports site?

[BROseidon]

Renegades, TDK, and Team Impulse all have to sell their LCS spots.

[BROseidon]

Badawi permabanned from involvement in LoL, Monte suspended. TiP owners also suspended.

[dramonic]

why? 0-o

[Voidedmafia]

Was there some kind of massive insider trading or something?

[Cabd]

TDK and Renegades were both owned by the same guy behind the scenes and were working together. He also was banned and then had it arranged to try and skirt the ban.

(Monte can still cast at non-riot events aka OGN)

TIP didn't pay their team at all.

[Randomnamechange]

New C9 line ups are dope tho

[zoraster]

what's the story there? are they doing a challenger team?

[Cabd]

Yeah sister team.

IIRC:

Impact-Meteos-Jensen-Sneaky-bunny in the LCS

Balls-Rush-Hai-Altec-Lemon in the "Challenger series" spot.

[Randomnamechange]

Yep. I'm not sure if its confirmed yet, but its supposed to be that.
