I'm talking about dexter's tweets he had a couple weeks back, where he said that playing at worlds for like a week last year was more practice than he got during an entire LCS split. If it were C9 going to korea last split or summer split I could understand, but they're not even winning against NA teams, what makes them think going to korea will suddenly make them that much better?

Also it basically tells riot to fuck off, but that's a different issue.


Rofl, they're going to Korea because they don't want to miss 1,5 weeks of scrimming with Seraph.
You're hating too much and hate is completely blind.

It's best move for them in such situation, will it work or no, time will tell.

In 3 weeks with finals on PAX Prime, September 1st.

No, 1/8 are week before PAX, so it's 22-24.

this funny, too

I disagree. Koreans are the hardest fanboys ever to get in good with, but for some reason, they fucking love doublelift

I agree with the CLG move. I am a huge TSM fan, so for me to admit that, means it's good.

Korea is really, and has always been, the place to go for competitive RTS development in a few certain games which we know and love. In said games, the top 50 players in the world are Korean. When Challenger players who go over to Korea, and I'm not going to name any names here, get beat by Koreans in Unranked (pre-30) which HotshotGG calls "noobs" (because they're not 30 [and this seems to be enforced by the community in Plat-Diamond... I was literally told by someone to "get to 30" before they would play with me]) it's really a travesty, but it's a learning experience

Don't play too greedy

Don't play too safe

Don't overextend

Scout more

these things hold true to any RTS, so I expect CLG not only to drastically improve from things most wouldn't think of like ward positioning, but also from individual mechanics from being able to scrim against the top teams for hours straight.

Koreans actually enjoy spamming games against new opponents.

I think they'll rather rely on Monte's contacts to get worthy scrims. Don't really think any of the top teams would fanboy over Doublelift anymore, that was a loong time ago, back when Korea was known for shit ADs because their best team had Woong as their AD.

TC was hands off in China, because they own Royal Club and having 2 teams is against the rules. A company owned by lolclass was backing LMQ. TC creates a shell corporation in California and reacquires team, citing that it's against the rules for people associated with lolclass to back a team because they sponsor most of the teams in the LCS.

People associated with the old management say they were in it for the esports and ask for compensation for their work. Chinese company representative refuses, saying they had already paid and paint the picture of the old manager swindling the rest of the old staff and paint a seemingly ridiculous picture of a mafia-esque intimidation before they acquired the team. Old coach feels the vibe has changed and loses desire to coach int he new environment and leaves.

The players get screwed.

I'm curious, a lot of people have said that part of the reason Chinese LoL is so "weak" is that the pro players get very little respect and have to deal with this kinda stuff on a regular basis. Does anyone know the truth behind that? Is this kind of money corruption par for the course in China LoL?

Chinese esports is pretty shit if you're not in one of the comfy well established orgs like WE, LGD or iG. There's lots of off stuff, progamers don't make much money and often it comes from running shops on the side (that ACE restricts afaik), quite a few pros reportedly elo boost loads as well and tencent doesn't care about it (when even garena does more to stamp out pro eloboosting you know tencent doesn't have fucks to give). Royal Club however was particularly awful, aside from this they also apparently haven't even paid whit3zz his worlds money and I remember them straight up buying an LPL slot (LomoQ got in by basically buying the slot from livemore, the previous 6th place team of the first split of LPL)
Even by Chinese standards though this lomoQ stuff is pretty absurd.

I wonder if clg will get to scrim against top teams. A big problem for smaller teams like prime were that the big team wouldn't scrim them. From what I hear Apdo's team anarchy was asked to scrim clg, is that because of the lack of teams willing to play them or if they just want to play anyone and eveyone

If Apdo's team stomps them in scrims, they are probably fine with not playing SKT/Samsung xD

Maybe Seraph can organize some Najin White scrims.

NJBS win against Blaze in NLB right now secured KT Rolster Bullets place at Korean Regionals, if they suddenly don't get fined in points for changing roster, rofl.

Both CJ Entus rosters don't get spots at Regionals, both KT Rolster rosters will play against each other in first round of Regionals if Arrows don't win Champions Summer.

Apparently they played with AoD tonight, so, RIP Failer.
Have to consider nickname change already probably.

On the other hand, now H2K is rising in our ranks again and going to play Gambit and we will still have SK-G2/SKP which is glorious no matter who they face.
