Froggen carried Wickd, Snoopeh, Yellowpete and Krepo to the finals of OGN Champions and semifinals of Worlds. Even if he slumped a bit in Season 3 he has still been the overall best western player in my opinion. Diamondprox is the only close contender off the top of my head.

Libertine posted:Part of me thinks that Alliance could win Worlds if the stars aligned perfectly but then I just think about Wickd having to play against someone like Save or Ackerman and it just terrifies my mind thinking about what some of those guys will do to him. To be honest I doubt the non-Froggen parts of Alliance will be able to do much. Wickd is straight up bad and Shook has had issues playing on LAN. Their botlane is fine but fine isn't enough when you're up against Chinese and Korean botlanes.

Only one pool 3 team per group so SK, DP and Kabum will all be in seperate groups. Edit: the most weak sauce group possible would be something line TSM/Fnatic/AHQ/DP I think. Savage Cracker fucked around with this message at 15:41 on Sep 8, 2014 |

There's no doubt C9 were hurt more by having a sub than OMG was but it doesn't change the fact that OMG weren't at full capacity either. (All-stars really sucked imo, between subs, terrible play and 2nd tier teams)

Flameingblack posted:If Korea had sent any other Korean team than SKT short of someone like IM or Jin Air organization teams, they probably would have stomped every region even harder and it would have been even less competitive. At least the All-Star games were a lot of fun, seeing Bjerg and Froggen run the pain trains None of the regions (except maybe SEA I guess but they're terrible anyway) brought their best. C9 had to play with a sub, Fnatic were either in "don't care mode" (Bota Fnatic) or in "can't make anything work" mode (8 game loss streak fnatic), OMG were playing with a sub and T1 K were already slumping. edit: yeah the all star games were good fun though. Anivia hype double edit: So apparently Fnatic picked up Toyz to help coach them during Worlds. https://www.facebook.com/toyzLoL/photos/a.327403573985744.77291.309400622452706/745145312211566/?type=1&theater He's certainly pretty enough to be on Fnatic.

The Western scene didn't know much about TPA but I'm pretty sure the Chinese and Korean teams knew they were a powerhouse considering they scrimmed them frequently. Also SKT won both Champions Summer and the Korean Regionals before Worlds I'm pretty sure most considered them the favorites.

Flameingblack posted:He hates Reginald so much that he roots for any team against them. He'd probably root for Mineski over TSM without a hint of irony. On SI he said the C9 ALL matchup would be very close. And made the point that the TSM botlane would likely struggle in their group so I don't think it's only based on his personal feelings about the team.

Flameingblack posted:I dunno if they have team issues, they don't play intelligently but everyone on the team is really drat good. Even if they end up relegated, I can see them getting back in through the expansion tournament anyway Uh yeah I think I phrased that poorly. I was simply referring to them not producing the wins/results you'd expect them to have considering their lane up is pretty good. Like their performance is as a team average at best when they ought be to more like average at worst in my mind.

Isn't it just the collective sum of a scene that has existed for a decade longer than the western scenes, coaches and analysts with actual experience getting paid actual money, well developed organisations, huge sponsors and what appears to be a greater drive to win.

A dream where Chaox joins Curse and then he and Xpecial are reunited in the most glorious bot lane since Rush Hour. http://i.imgur.com/ULtoOHh.gif Mandu has been underperforming for a long time so seeing him get cut shouldn't be a surprise. The only question is who is gonna do the shotcalling. Piglet hasn't been great either for a while but I'm suprised they kicked him instead of Bengi.

No Korean team in group. SHRC internal issues. Svenskeren shooting SK in the foot with a tactical nuke. What will happen to TPA ? How many infants have Regi and Loco sacrificed ?

Could be they don't want to be too hard on SK after screwing them with the Incarnation coach deal. Or maybe Nukeduck and Mithy simply had more and more recent bans and suspensions.

Sexpansion posted:I think people are really underestimating SHRC and/or putting too much weight on the supposed fights between Insec and UzI. Those guys are going to wreck that group. Yeah based on mechanical strength alone SHRC is so far ahead of every other team in that group it's not even funny (actually it is. I can't wait to see to see Uzi vs Turtle). Unless Uzi actually ends up not going I don't see SHRC not making it out of that group. TSM is a solid 2nd place though unless the TPA rumours are worth a drat. edit: How Rude posted:I am sad to see Cop go, he was my favorite ADC. He's like a bizarro Doublelift, he doesn't make retardedly aggressive throwy plays, but he also plays incredibly safe so he doesn't always get a game winning play. So we've got actual Doublelift, Reverse Doublelift (Cop), Doublelift Light (Wildturtle), Doublelift With the Team He Needs Not the One He Deserves (Vasili). https://twitter.com/c9meteosego/status/512277732479082496 Savage Cracker fucked around with this message at 17:44 on Sep 17, 2014 |
