It was certainly fun to watch here.

did you obey chantmaster jatt

[zoraster]

I don't chant anything but the crowd surprisingly did.

[zoraster]

For real though, drama is way better than some idea of quality.

[dramonic]

It didn't feel dramatic from home, but YMMV

[Voidedmafia]

Take that back, TSM's our only hope.

[SleepyKrew]

I wonder if skt's "internal issues" or whatever during playoffs are what led to blank's benching

incorrect speculation

This C9 v. FW game is neverending... And I still think C9's gonna lose.

PEDT: Holy shit that took 40 minutes longer than it should've. Still think TSM's our only rep.

[Voidedmafia]

That was great late-game calling, but that mid-game was atrocious. I thought Doublelift was beyond that solo splitpushing.

Beyond that, I think Splyce had an okay/good early game, but after that it was TSM's fault for putting them ahead, and then TSM just outmaneuvered them.

Zor doesn't chant? What is wrong with you?

LET'S GO C 9 CLAP CLAP CLAPCLAPCLAP

Uh so I think hito at least is going to games in the future. A few comments:

1. The Riftwalk is worth a stroll, but not worth showing up early to. The Baron is pretty cool though:



2. At least at the SF location the screen is REALLY high. That's a very good thing so that everyone can see, you don't have to worry about jackasses with signs blocking your view, etc. But as a result, after 6 games, the neck grows weary from the floor. I think the first row of the balcony center stage was easily the best seat in the house unless you desperately want to feel like you're close to the players themselves (but actually from the angle on the floor, the closer you are, the harder it is to see them when they're playing) or if you want to get on camera.

3. Overall, the production value is tremendous. The whole room goes purple when the baron is taken, there are some cool graphics for the drakes, etc.



4. The TSM game felt weirdly subdued compared to the C9 game. I know there were a lot more TSM fans there from outfits, though C9 was well represented, but perhaps because of the exhausting C9 game or maybe because it was pretty late or maybe because TSM was supposed to win easily but wasn't, the energy I expected from the TSM game simply was absent.

It was definitely worth my time and money, and we had a lot of fun. That said, one day was good for me. I have tickets for Thursday, but right now I'm pretty sure I won't be going. If I were closer, I'd definitely be happy going again though.

*Gets home from work, refreshes the stream to catch up*

*first thing I see is CLG beating Rox*

HOLYSHITWHATJUSTHAPPENEDWHYWHATHOW

P-EDIT: At least you two enjoyed yourselves, Zor!

P-E2: Ah, the one option that beats nothing.

[Cabd]

So albus NOx Luna is tied with the rox tigers and clg.

Congrats skt on being three time world champion?

[zoraster]

that seems a bit premature from that premise, but I imagine they probably have become the favorites.

[BROseidon]

Tbh SKT look kind of beatable.

I have no fucking clue who will win, this is so absurd.

[GreyICE]

Well its now official. Albus Nox Luna has more wins than the entire EU for the first week of worlds.

[BROseidon]

lol

[Cabd]

Wtf flash wolves. What is this day. Even if they lose this is crazy.

[pickemgenius]

ya idk today has been pretty great.

[SleepyKrew]

PARITY

[BROseidon]

Lol.

This worlds.

[zoraster]

this is why groups is so much more fun. by playoff time the best teams tend to win their series.

[BROseidon]

This is fucking hilarious holy shit.

I'm so happy.
