A few USA chants are fine but please don't do it too much. Stop the stupid USA arguments, thanks. On another note, CDEC flairs are now live. Sorry about the delay on that. | ||

You can see it in every team fight execution. This patch is fairly braindead though. The strategic options are really limited. | ||

But damn, ruru got to be one of the hottest girl I've seen in china and she's about to be rich too  Are you seriously thinking the owner of LGD will be "rich" only after she won a couple million dollars? These Chinese team owners are mostly insanely rich, she or her father probably worth $ 100 mm and above. | ||

LGDis one of the best operated teams precisely because it isn't owned by 2nd generation wealth. | ||

I wouldn't be surprised they paid over $1.5 mm a year in salary alone. For those who don't know, they have the 2nd best LoL team in China and probably a top 3 LoL team in the world. | ||

There is a reason they have not won anything (even small) in China. People have been predicting the happening of them choking since a few days ago...lol They literally destroyed LGD, who they had most trouble against, and destroyed EG in the most convincing way possible (out-teamfight from a huge deficit and then a complete roflstomp). | ||

Would glad to be wrong, because that would be most impressive storyline of the year: bunch of old new pros going from 2nd place in Chinese qualifier to 1st place at TI5. Not to mention that it will mean that Azarkon will shut up for once. | ||

The famous CDEC LAN choke meme is a thing of long time past tbh. When they lost in final it's often that they lose fair and square due to being inferior at that point in time and not really choking. | ||

They did place 2nd at G-league losing to LGD 2-3 in the final. It has been said elsewhere that losing Maybe was an enormous blessing in disguise for CDEC. In their previous form, CDEC seemed like a rookie team being used as a vehicle for an up and coming star player. In their current form, they seem like they are firing on all cylinders, make the most of everyone on the team. | ||

Case and point As an EG fan you should be pretty happy about that, if you ask me LGD and CDEC are the better teams and EG mostly won their games against topteams by outdrafting them. The only way they beat CDEC so far was by drafting Techies twice. | ||

It doesn't excuse the comment about "or her father". And you never group ruru with the other Chinese team owners when talking about team finances. | ||
