Probably about time, i think, they will play relegations and then Genja can just freely retire. He's well-aged already anyway and have education completed, so it's ok. Krislund though, rofl. Gambit, you can't find better ad? | ||

They were pictures on reddit with Hiva also. Doesn't really make sense to change whole botlane right before relegation, especially after good super week. | ||

If Diamondprox is going to play as he did he last week, i don't think Gambit will have problems even playing 3v7. Also i expect Kikis to choke this time, long time no see and without him, SKP are pretty much dead meat because niQ will just farm without dying, Kubon ain't going to die against SmittyJ and Haydal plays mid-game ads only anyway, not like he's a big threat to Gambit. Hiva is considered as soloqueue God support by Forgiven anyway, don't think that Edward has any problems with visa to USA though. | ||

Goodbye Gambit? Time will tell. Question is if they get relegated, will they be a good challenger team or just quit. | ||

Edward will find a Challenger team, most likely and i'm expecting Diamondprox to go streaming full time or something like that, he's one of the most popular players in the West still and will get sick revenues. Even if they don't, they still have ability to play CIS tournaments and just play Wildcard for next Worlds, it's basically free path. But still, i'm favouring Gambit here probably if niQ just holds his own. If he feeds watdefox though, things might get tricky, considering level of possible tilt from Kubon and Krislund playing first time on really big stage outside of their loss to niQ and Woolite's Denial last time. Won't be surprised though, even if Gambit win to see Diamondprox and Edward going out from the team. Yes, they will lose Russian/CIS fanbase but still. | ||

http://na.lolesports.com/articles/2015-season-10-teams-expansion-tournament-circuit-points >> We’re looking forward to this team expansion to bring more diversity of talent and new gameplay into the professional scene in North America and Europe. Sometimes i really think that Riot's esports crew members are clueless as fuck. >> we will be updating the format and some policies for next season I swear, if they're going to force teams to play 36 games per season, i'm not going to watch LCS at all. It's just hilarious. bo2, Riot, pls, 18 games for each team, playoffs for all 10 teams, 5 winners into round robin bo2 into single/double elimination for 4 teams, 5 losers into relegations. Or honestly, just close the league after getting 10 teams. Noone will be close from amateurs anyway. On August 29 2014 09:17 orzeu wrote: Nothing stops Koreans from coming now. The worst part about this news is that we will end up with shit organization like LD/Dragonbors once again. Not rly, at worst we will have something like UoL/G2/LolPro. Inb4 Sparta qualifies and Frenchies are going to have their glorious return into LCS. | ||

Or honestly, just close the league after getting 10 teams. Noone will be close from amateurs anyway. One of the reasons Riot gave for the change in format was that they wanted to shorten the split and get rid of superweeks. So of course it will not be 36 games per team, that is ludicrous. Lemme just quote my old post on this. On July 11 2014 19:43 Redox wrote: He doesnt reveal many specifics, but you can assume a few things from this. Pretty sure in this 10 team format it would be double round robin instead of quadruple round robin per split. Which means we would have 90 games instead of 112 per split during regular season. This way they could eliminate super weeks, which makes sense to me. What I hope (and assume) they will do for the playoff format: Playoffs with top 8 teams of regular season, while the bottom 2 teams go to relegation against challenger teams. Team 5-8 play the first round of elimination matches. Winners of that play against team 3 and 4. Winners of that plays against team 1 and 2 in the semi finals. This would give sufficient meaning to regular season placements and there would be 8 instead of 6 playoff matches. Only problem I see with the new format is that it further weakens the challenger scene, but overall could be worth it. | ||
