A lot changes now based on how bad Fnatic is. If they're garbage again this week, we get a IMT/GAM tiebreak. If they're great, we get a FNC/IMT/GAM tiebreak. And if it's somewhere in between, they probably play spoiler to either IMT or GAM.

Okay, I can't really blame IMT for losing this one. Urgot is really out of the meta nowadays. Maybe for poor macro play?

In any case, they have to beat Fnatic and hope FNC only beats GAM or else they're out or face a GAM tiebreak.

P-EDIT: Maybe so, but FNC can't lose to IMT. Actually, that game becomes a must-win for both teams to assure a chance to make it (or for IMT, assure a chance to guarantee making it)

If IMT beats FNC they almost guarantee at least a tiebreak.

Fnatic, the fuck are you doing?

P-EDIT: If GAM and FNC only get 1 win, then they're into quarters regardless.

If Fnatic wins against IMT, they have to beat GAM to cause a potential tiebreaker. GAM isn't going to beat LZ, but IMT may have a chance. If not, then it's a 3-way tie..

If IMT wins, Fnatic's done, but if they beat GAM it forces a GAM-IMT tiebreaker. Pretty much everything hinges first on IMT vs. FNC, then FNC vs. GAM.

Any scenario where FNC doesn't advance is fine by me. Either IMT advance and we likely see 3 NA teams in Quarters, or else GAM advances which is also great.

Laugh it up, dram, laugh it up.

also, HOLY FUCK, COME ON, IMT!

P-EDIT: FNC HAS to go 2-1 now or else IMT has to risk it all on beaiting Longzhu. If GAM wins, IMT is basically out and the GPL goes to quarters for the first time since, like, TPA in 2012.

P-EDIT2: I'm actually not that against GAM going ahead, I just want IMT/NA to go before them and am really upset at how stupidly IMT is playing now.

I have almost never been so glad to be so wrong. GAM has learned so much from both MSI and from Week 1. At this point you're almost betting on them going 3-0, but I can't just count LZ out like I could IMT or FNC.

IMT's basically done without GAM going 2-1.

P-EDIT: I find it utterly hilarious that this ace comes right after the casters say LZ need an SKT-like teamfight.

Yes! IMT still has a chance!

They aren't gonna beat LZ (not that such a prediction from me hasn't been wrong before <_<), so I'm expecting to wake up to a bunch of tiebreaker matches. I'll be VERY surprised if IMT manage to pull together a win against LZ.
