TSM over C9? Really?
I'm expecting C9 to make a deep run, they look really strong lately. And TSM has looked pretty bad in FaceIT.

C9 over Ex-Dig?
Uhh i dont exactly agree with your predictions, but it seems you have a lot of faith in the NA scene :D
Also you cant really judge TSM's performance, its Faceit.... C9 loses to tier2-3 teams on a weekly basis while TSM is very strong on LAN as they proved in MLG Aspen Games

Well, I have some strong NA bias. So that factors in strongly with CLG.
PENTA over Titan was a tough pick, but Titan has looked awful lately. I don't see them getting it together by Katowice.
CLG is my underdog pick. I don't think either HR or Kabum are *that* strong, and CLG is coming in with a full head of steam. They rely on individual performances too much, which is going to hurt them - if Tarik doesn't get rolling, it'll be an 0-2 for them.
Cloud9 just looks really strong lately, especially in individual skill. They have shroud who's on fire, one of the best awpers in the world, and one of the smartest players in the world. Those things mean a *lot* at a LAN. They can easily take Dignitas.

They can easily take Dignitas. how has c9 looked strong lately? they have played close games against other subpar NA teams and just last night lost 16-7 against the only other NA team worth of anything, CLG.
i also do not see how TSM (who you are still calling dignitas) has been doing bad, their only losses are to other top tier teams.
calling shahzam one of the best awpers in the world is laughable. also i have no clue which player in c9 you are referring to as "one of the smartest players in the world", because nobody in their team could really be characterized as a very smart player.

All this kansas team shuffle that happened over the last few month totally confuses me.

Last two games were 41/4/17 and 46/8/17, perhaps I won't be silver 1 much longer.

Yesterday I went from silver 5 to 6, and then I log in today and I am silver 5 again. Is that normal ?

If there was a hacker who got banned on your team the MMR you got from that game will be taken away. That in turn may have pushed you back under the threshold.

Hey just a random question... Is the (unofficial) TL server still up? It would be cool to get some TL 5v5

Would like to know as well. My wife can't bear to play MM alone during the day and this could be what she's looking for. Nice people that don't insult each other to do some 5v5

I'm currently working on starting TL community nights with TL only 10 mans. won't start it till after Katowice but it's a work in progress at least for NA. I can help start EU nights but I can't play so someone else would have to manage that
