Only game I watched was the CLG-Dig game, and I was very Impressed with Doublelift. Dude is insane. I also watched his interview after the game, hilarious.

Maybe because I pretty much only play solo queue, but isn't the lack of a ban as much as of a punishment for TSM and GGU?

The MRN - velocity game was really tight and really good. Vileroze played pretty decent. maplestreet got completely left in the cold in that last team fight. Honestly, his team kinda dicked him the entire game.

I'm not a big fan of allowing any players to play for a region they don't belong to. Cause the way it's set up is essentially like world cup, each region has it's little season and qualifiers and then goes to the world cup. Just as I'm not a fan of guys like Kevin prince Boateng playing for Ghana or all the brazilians who've played for Portugal over the years. I'm not a fan of the EdWard move, or the koreans fielding a team in the NA scene.

The only difference is it's a mix of a pro league and international representation(cause I have no problem with Pau Gasol playing for the lakers but I would flip my shit if he was on the USA team as an example) so I can see where people have no issue with it, but I feel looking at it from a purely competitive stand point and saying it's not good is kinda silly.

Edit: Especially when there is a significant portion of the NA regio that isn't represented(Mexico and the latin countries) and have been looped into the "latin american" region instead of being included in their continent

In post 255, yessiree wrote:how do you define "NA"?

NA is multicultural and if you exclude any race or nationality, particularly "The Koreans" from the collective that is the north american race then you should feel ashamed of yourself
I'm excluding KOREA, not KOREANS. NA = people from(born and raised) Canada, US, Mexico, All the Central American nations, all the Caribbean nations. I don't care if you're culturally/ancesterally Korean, I care if you were born/raised in Korea.

But as Quadz point out and as I kinda mentioned, it's more like club then country.

Big night for TSM. If they at least beat SKT, they have a shot at a playoff at least, assuming OMG doesn't deliberately lose the last game of group stage to SKT.

TSM goes 3-1(only losing to OMG) and SKT goes 2-2 losing to OMG and TSM, that's a playoff. That math doesn't work if they beat OMG and lose to SKT though.

Cause he's an asshole, just don't address him. If he was as good as he thinks he is, he wouldn't be silver 5 like the vast majority of league players.

To his credit though, he has a ton of game knowledge and knowledge of the pro scene.

Anyway, can anyone breakdown Yasuo for me, or should I just read a guide/watch a video?

I said KT Arrows cannot beat anyone reliably. This was shown when KT Arrows lost to White Shield directly after winning OGN.


In post 1118, GreyICE wrote:If you've seen them against other teams in Korea though,
only White and Blue can reliably beat them
(yes KTA can beat them, but reliably is key, KTA can't reliably beat anyone). NLB they looked unbelievable.

I only know the doinb story because I was watching asian league with sleepo and he told me about it and I feel that it was the craziest story I've ever heard about any sort of competitive organization.

Alternatively, I hope hauntzer gets injured in between game 2 and 3. Regi has to fill in top lane. Spends all game playing like regi and acting like regi and being real rude to berg and lift lift. Then at 23 minutes, after a blown dragon call; magic happens. 4 members of TSM stand up. The camera switches from game to the stage. And to the collective gasp of the live audience: they walk off stage. Regi flabbergasted, plays 1v5. Tries frantically to defend the base, using each champion 1 by 1. He can't do it. No man could. RNG has broken the nexus. And regi sits on stage, defeated. A broken man with a broken empire. TSM must also forfeit the ensuing tiebreaker. Queue the movie.

Because Reginald is a a huge asshole, that consistently not only degrades his teammates/business partners(including using his leverage in their web series to make dyrus look very bad after a team disagreement), has betrayed his own brother in pursuit of fame and fortune. Reginald is a very bad man. Also each member of TSM can easily find a contract just as good as the one they have with bad man reginald. Bjerg is a certified esports super star(and literally has his pick of teams in at least 2 regions due to his import status), so is liftlift. Sven is fairly close to that level. Suffice to say, none of those guys should stand for regi's berating them as he's feeding during world's. Also, I really like the high drama of sports mixed with the low drama of being very young and in tense situations.

What? This is just my personal fantasy that I decided to share among my friends at mafiascum.net. There is no twitter/facebook/reddit rooting for TSM to abandon reginald. I just think it would be fantastic viewing.

@voided, all SK was saying that you're just typing to type. Your "analysis" wasn't really analysis and you said all the favorites were gonna win. It would saved us all the trouble of reading babble if you would have straight said "all the favorites are gonna win, but I don't want them to" or just done the picks straight up without any extra bullshit. In short, save the not-really-analysis for your tumblr.

As for my picks. All favorites in Rd 1. Skt over rox and Korea over not Korea Rd 2. Ssg over skt. Crown kills faker a bunch. The crowd goes wild. The unkillable demon king goes down.

Well, the bigger issue is voided can't read. Cabd said the false article wrote that rox were coming for money, not coming for superior opposition. Last I checked the dollar was strong as fuck and a pile of sports teams have been investing in both na and eu. I'm sure the dollar and euro are pretty god damn strong.

Oh, it's not your fault man. Espn is normally good but their esports coverage has been trash during worlds(probably always). Match reports have been factually inaccurate but at least those don't have areal impact on team's future.

They should just have quickshot cast every game because they only use his calls in promo clips anyway and he's the best. Also he's not consistently making ridiculous mistakes like Riv.

To be fair, Altidor is only 26 years old. We're not even certain if he's a finished product let alone a declining one. Giovinco and Bradley are 29 and probably each have 1 more big contract coming. Bradley could certainly be in a more distinguished league basically doing the same thing he was doing in the beginning g of his career, being a serviceable defense minded central midfielder with a mid table team, he's just decided not to.

To go back to my original point, would saying "competitions that aren't the very best can be difficult to feel incentivzed to support" be less gross?
Not really. Every division/league of every sport has a different style of play. I don't necessarily think that there is a definitive "best" thing when it comes to the actual enjoyment of something. People will tell you that the "best play" for league is in korea, the "best play" for soccer is in england, and the "best play" for basketball is in America. But that doesn't mean those are the most enjoyable, right? Up until the last 3-4 years, the "pace and space" basketball was most played in Europe, with the big time 3pt shooting big men and such. So if that was something that you found more enjoyable, that was probably what you preferred to watch. On average the best soccer players in the world play in the premiership, but it's a little but of a slower and more physical game as compared to other leagues that are a little faster and a little flashier(La liga for starters, although I find myself watching a lot of Liga MX - easier time zone and availability). As for league, if you like constant action and insane team fights and wild objective calls, you might find LCK to be really fucking boring and might really enjoy watching LPL play. And as I previously mentioned, there might be availability issues that prevent one from being able to constantly watch the very best - I'm sure it is pretty difficult to watch LCK live on the east coast and it's honestly not a cake walk on the west coast. I say support what you enjoy and it doesn't matter who's the "best".

As for the players themselves, I say get paid while you can, and who gives a fuck where you play or what your opposition is. You only have a limited amount of time to make as much money as possible so get cracking.

Idk, for they? The best team in EU going in got smoked by the IWC twice? Splyce mostly got handled and H2k had the easiest group and quarter final. So...idk man. I wouldn't say eu had a successful worlds. I would say an eu team got lucky with its draw and took advantage of the only good team in their group playing like hot garbage and being generally very overrated.

I'm still shocked that TSM was so transparent about the doublelift situation and still picked up a fairly great ADC to keep the seat warm(also shocked that DL ended up playing the split instead of commiting to his split of streaming).

Also crazy that NV didn't get relegated

Seems rough for the orgs that were trying to use it to break in to lcs seeing as those spots are worth a whole lot less. Do you think that change will help their college league seeing as the minor league will now be less competitive and less important than it currently is?

He's only silver when he's too busy being Gordon fucking Hayward to play solo queue. Also being good typically speaks to one's game knowledge. But anyway, pro play is pretty much not league of legends so I personally forgive a guy who probably has never watched a game played by professionals for not getting it. Also, it's not like Riot had him there for his overwhelming insight. It was for crossover value.

That's not what you said tho.

His game knowledge is probably worse than most in this thread.
That's almost certainly false.

eh, I don't like it. Mostly because I don't think those are the best four teams in the play-ins and the odds of 3 of those 4 teams getting in the same bracket would be low. All it does is lower the chance of them playign each other in the KO, which i think is p crappy. For example, I think Fnatic and c9 got groups that possess significantly less of a challenge then WE and especially HKA did, and by having this advantage they should both be 1 seeds and avoid playing the teams that prove to be best in the 2 significantly harder groups where as if Fnatic and c9 could of drawn each other they'd have a road more befitting their status in this playoff as I don't necessarily think they are top 4 teams in the opening bracket. WE, Gambit, Fenerbach are the top tier imo with c9, fnatic, Rampage, YG and HKA as kinda the second tier(i'm low on HK and c9, high on Rampage and I think YG has a solid pedigree basically only losing to GB Marines all year). With the Latin teams and Oceania picking up the rear by a fair margin.

I feel if WE or Gambit(to a lesser exten fenerbache) get into group D, they have a very real possibility of making it out of both group stages.

In post 7417, zoraster wrote:I'm willing to bet that more Pool 1 teams make the group stages than any 4 teams you want to choose.

That's not to say that every Pool 1 team makes it out -- odds are at least one doesn't (particularly HKA). Gambit has a nice amount of world's experience and could pose a challenge to whoever gets them in the Bo5 match. The others are more or less unknown in terms of how they'll react at an international level of competition with a Best of 5.

I'm not talking C9 and Fnatic up as potential Worlds contenders or anything, but I think you underestimate both teams against wild card level teams.
Well Rampage dominated GB Marines at Rift Rivals. Fenerbache has also been absolutely dominant this split and at rift rivals(also have a couple key koreans). I think both the LCS squads fell ass backwards into worlds, received very generous pools, and will end up playing 2 seeds and getting the easy road.

no, it's definitely not. WE is gonna make, c9 and fnatic have the edge cause they will get 1 seeds and none of those teams are going to take each other out. Best odds I have in that is a tie at 2 due to the groups(my guys have a much higher chance to get paired with WE or each other, your guys get a free ride to most likely mediocre competition) and I don't believe in YG nearly enough to say they will for certain beat out an LCS team.

@Venmar: who are the "actual analyst"? Esports journalism can come from some real questionable sources.

Boohoo, you have to adjust your sleep, Riot's cutting into my "watch anime at work" schedule and it's fucking bullshit.

But seriously, Just catch the 7am re-run. Riot always does that shit, where they re-run night stuff in the morning, they did it for some other major event, so I'm sure they'll do it for worlds.it's not like you gotta worry about spoilers because like...you're gonna be sleeping then you're gonna wake up and watch the games, just turn of twitch chat cause its trash.

sorry c9 is not as good as you think they are. They got to play 2 scrub ass teams and dominated them rightfully. Lyon is not a scrub ass team. I think c9 is going to have A LOT of trouble with Lyon

Teams I want to win from top to bottom based on skins
IMT(mint IMT)
RNG
Fnatic
C9
GBM/IMT(yellow IMT)
MSF/AHQ
FNB/FW
LZ/SSG
EDG/TSM/G2

That's only one rung though. Skt needs to pick some wild colors

I need some White and Chartreuse. Maybe throw some dark grey and some orange in there.

Or some emerald green. With some purple.

Lol @ voided being like HALF THEIR GROUPS WERE STACKED OH NO. And btw, they weren't. 2015 is a failure. EU powerhouse isn't a thing. They drew the 3rd best Korean team, the 2nd best EU team and china. That's not that bad, not for a team with the aspirations that TSM has every year.

Also the difference between G2 and TSM were expectations, and I feel saying the group is stacked in 2016 is a bit of revisionist history. TSM was pegged as a Semi Final team. They dominated everything all year, had the revamped roster, drew the 3rd best EU and Korean teams and the 2nd best Chinese team. G2, yeah got the same draw, but because of their failure last year no one was really expecting them to make a decent showing, so stealing one from Uzi after what we saw last week IS a success. Also, it matters that the world finally caught on that Uzi always chokes in China finals.

One more thing, G2 was absolutely revered as choke artists last year. They got more hate than TSM especially cause EU bombed out entirely and G2 had a group with CLG and a wild card team.

They did. Flyquest was said to be declined a while ago. P1 is rumored to be out. Rumors are that OpTiC and a team featuring Joe Lacob's money(confirmed in) are taking those spots.

EDIT: LZ vs. SSG. That's gonna be a treat. lus, if C9 manages to get past WE, we have the easier(-ish) semis, so there IS a very small chance of finals.

I think RNG got exactly the middle of their options to the final. FNC is probably the 2nd best 2 seed they could play(3rd overall). SKT(if they win) is probably the second best option from the likely semi-finalists. And playing Longzhu in the final is what you'd expect. The biggest issue is that beating Koreans in Bo5s at worlds as a non-Korean team is not really a thing that happens.

They got rekt. Cuvee basically went even with khan, crown dominated bdd, and they put a lot of resources into smashing pray. They also brought out a lissandra in the clutch. Also LZ got cocky g1 trying to force Cuvee out of his pool by going blind jax, didn't really work.

Also what do you mean about first time a non-winning region has a chance to win? This would be Royal's 3rd final.

I'm curious how much roster turnover for SKT we're getting here, especially cause all of Longzhu got rox tiger'd and have had no sponsor all year. I can see a case for legitimately every non-faker player to be gone next year.

Huni was in and out of the lineup all year and forced drastic change in playstyle on the team. Pnut also in/out all year and aside from the 2 games against rng didn't look great. Blank was something like 2-4 in knockouts. Bang threw the finals, played poorly in the semis until games 4 and 5 and didn't really show up in quarters. Wold is wold. Awooooo

From getting 0-3'd in lck playoffs!

There was a ridiculously real chance that this team wouldn't make worlds, they then looked shakey in group stage then only lost 1 game for the brackets.

Mid Lane had more EU players then NA players last split too if you aren't counting Bjerg as NA. Or at least the same amount. But more in Spring for sure. There are only 2 NA mids that are playable.

I actually don't care because KT getting the reverse sweep might be best for my wallet.
(Ig already covered the spread so that's a win, but it keeps my 2unit kt-fnc parlay alive, but it does lower my 5 unit bet on China winning worlds - but ultimately the best thing for that bet would be edg playing spoiler regardless of the KT outcome. )

Who cares? Meta is fucking garbage. Western teams can win an ARAM. Yay. But who cares, we'll hopefully get an exciting final with 2 china or China and Korea. If the final is Fnc vs g2, i'm not watching, and I think that's true for a lot of people.

Anyway, I stand by my statement, just as nobody that gives a shit about college basketball wants to see loyola in the final 4, nobody that gives a shit about pro league wants to see b-rate western teams play in knockouts. The meta has finally shifted toward random as fuck outcomes and now we get bad league games at worlds and not just in the NA playoffs.

You are also the first one i hear this sentiment from, and i've talked with a lot of people about this.
Cause everyone loves the billion fight meta. And it's boring af. 0 individual skill expression, 0 macro.

Oh look, c9 make a huge mistake, then get rewarded with a baron power play because baron takes too long to take down. Gj riot.

Remember when mistakes had consequences in league of legends?

Why should I cry? It's not league. Fights don't matter. Mistakes don't matter. Strategy doesn't exist. Riot made the game 30 minutes of reckless aggression and 50/50 barons so silvers and bronzes would watch it because that's 75% of the player base , and they were successful. The pros play just like them now.

Unwatchable.

But hey, now that there's probably only 1 good team left, it'll really save me on data trying to watch from work and save time doing vods in the morning. So really the winner is me.

(Full disclosure, bet on c9 so ez money)

It's not league because it's not being played like league has been played at the professional level for the entirety of its existence as a game.

Every game sucks. Every game goes the same way. The vision changes, the baron changes, and the ad changes has made a game that is as garbage to watch as it is to play. Makes sense that they would advertise this as best world's meta with 0 decision making and 0 skill expression when they trying to court new players because they are hemorrhaging players because the game sucks.

Bring back ardent please. Bring back carries mattering. Bring back vision. Bring back decisions.

The only decision is "face check baron cause we're behind and the enemy is bush hiding by baron"

It's not a coincidence that the game being less strategy based and entirely centered around free fights is being won by Western teams that have struggled with macro for 8 years.

Except for the 3 games they took from rng by bush hiding in front of baron until they could final get it because uzi went to do something beside run to baron or some other trivial thing? Hide in baron bush, then split push is the most bronze ass shit in the game. It's okay though, y'all can like bad shiy. I'll just vote by a) not watching bad play and b) not purchasing things from riot. Fuck, might just switch to Dota until league is fixed like everyone else.

Sorry that the west needed riot to take the macro out of the game for them to win. Season 8 will be looked at like season 1. An anamoly that only happened because riot is trash

Trust me, I get it, you fan boys are all hyped up that western teams finally are allowed to play, but at least acknowledge the meta is trash.

"This game is impossible to understand, they are ahead in kills and are making more plays but behind in gold" - Quickshot on EDG

Yes, quickshot, it's because this meta is trash and the only mistakes that matter are ones at 28 minutes near Baron, because death timers are too short that you can't sufficiently punish bad players for their mistakes.
