Looks like cloud9 will have 2 easy games today.

Must watch CLG vs CRS, everyone else is trash!

the new teams are using the Korean strat

especially clou9, when someone says go, they fucking unload on the other team.

they will all get beaten by korean teams sooner or later anyways =(

as much as I would like NA to win the cup, I don't see that happening

yeah the only reason c9 dominated in the NA scene is because every other NA teams sucked even more

I can't wait to see TSM and vulcan get crushed

I'm so glad they were using level 20 accounts with no rune pages.
I doubt that made much of a difference. Their teamfight mechanics and decision making were simply subpar.

They aced velocity with no death while being down 5k gold. 3 members blinking red; that's a sign of team coordination and superior skill.

In post 240, GreyICE wrote:Well it grows to extremes. Like right now the Starcraft "World Championship" with players from "each region" contains 15 Koreans and NaNiwa. Only one NA player made it into the top 32, despite America having its own league.

That's what people are hoping to avoid. The "North America Top Finalists" being a bunch of Koreans and Scarlett is kinda blah (as awesome as Scarlett is). The NA scene in league has a rich history and some great personalities, and I don't want them edged out by Korean teams with better funding and better organization.

That looks to me like NA needs to step up their game. I think Quantic Gaming is a special case, given that Locodocco had ties with CLG. No other Koreans would go out of their way to play in the NA scene. That's like putting a team with Man United's caliber to Major League Soccer.

There is little benefit for Quantic Gaming, but it will benefit the NA scene as a whole. When NA teams get crushed consistently by this team, the urge to become better will be stronger.

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

best chimpanzee NA, people love him

Granted, if it were TSM-without-Regi, I'd probably be more amicable.

yes, put scarra on TSM and TSM will be unstoppable

Fnatic has a history of losing to Chinese teams

The final will likely be a rematch of OMG vs SKT
