Westrice was traded to EG from TSM.

Dyrus and Dan Dinh were reportedly heard discussing throwing their round 1 game against TSM as it was supposedly the terms of Westrice's trade to EG; others say it was motivated by the fact that there are Dinh brothers on both EG and TSM.

Riot hears about these rumors, so they make a seed switch.

Originally, CLG (seed 1) plays WHALE (seed 8) in round one, while TSM (2) plays EG (7). After switch, CLG (1) plays EG (7) and TSM (2) plays WHALE (8).

WHALE is a pretty disfunct team so TSM gets an easy win (they finish their match in like 40 minutes np) and basically gets a free ride to DH.

CLG plays EG; due to lag and d/c, games 2 and 3 were remade (EG wins match before remake). Despite the remake, EG wins again anyways.

CLG goes to losers bracket. TSM and EG meet in winners bracket finals. EG wins 2-0.

CLG and TSM talk about how they're going to rig games, Riot switched #8 seed with #7 seed, making CLG face EG and TSM face Whale. TSM facerolls whale, CLG vs EG is first game CLG losing, second game CLG winning because of Westrice being dced for like the whole game. Then Game 3 Bigfatjiji dc's which gets salce a double kill and just dominance. Then doublelift as Janna dcs for like 15 minutes, then Hotshot dc's and EG just wins the game. Then Rinoa says they're replaying game 3. EG gets pissed off because game 2 Westrice was dc'ed for whole game but they don't get a regame, so then they replay game 2 also. Game 2, 2 people from EG dc and CLG wins, but they lose game 3. Then hotshot's pissed off because they lost their at least #2 auto seed to go to DreamHack and may be eliminated today if they lose to RS.

Okay so basically they made an unnecessary stupid change and the repercussions are that CLG might not make it to dreamhack and hotshotgg is being a martyr?

Honestly as much as I dont like CLG, that's pretty shitty

If CLG lose to RS in the lower bracket they woulda lost to them in the upper bracket then got knocked down to face TSM or EG (which they would lose to), so it doesn't make THAT much difference in the grand scheme of things.

still sorta shitty that you coulda maken an example out of match fixing and made sure it never happend again (because it will happen eventually at some point, horrible but unavoidable truth)

And as people said before, EG were sorta secret "third" seed cus everybody knew they were better than the 8th, 6th, 5th, 4th, and 3rd seed. Only question is who was better out of EG (I swear to god I keep reading it as evilgeniuses), CLG and TSM tbh.

All 3 are probally still going to dreamhack but still, bad situation.

Actually CLG would have been on the other side of the bracket so they wouldn't have met RS in the upper bracket. They would have only faced Whale -> Col -> EG -> dropped to LB finals (aka go to DH anyway)

I thought the bracket woulda been the same just with EG and Whale swapped again?

And not only that they keep making useless posts about how bad CLG is if they don't just curbstomp their way to Dreamhack because "it shouldn't matter who you play" oh and TSM lost to EG so they should be the one in the lower brackets.

So basicly two teams get accused of cheating. So one of those teams get rewarded for it.

Why is MF so popular now in high level? I understand she has good lane presence, dmg + mobility but she lacks a repositioning skill.

Maybe because people don't pick tanky DPS-oriented as much? Dunno, just speculating

It was Regi offering $10k for someone to wipe the tears from hotshotgg's face. First post was Regi saying "Gotta go big, bro."

If you can pick the highest damage dealing ranged carry while sufficiently protecting her with your comp vs their comp, why wouldn't you? ;O


Also, caller is not such a bad player, although a mega troll, so really you can't insult his abilities at this game because he at least has a decent amount of game knowledge. When you play with higher ELO you *USUALLY* tend to learn how to play the game better.
Skikyo on the other hand is actually serious about a lot of his 1300 elo games, similar to Jazriel.
This explains enough for me.

Just to clarify something others didn't, CLG raised these concerns before they lost to EG. They raised these concerns less than 24 hours after the seed switch occurred. Everyone knew that EG was probably the third or second best team in North America, they have a really solid lineup and aren't what you'd expect of a 7th seeded team.

Why are people calling MF the highest damage ranged carry? Sivir, Twitch, Kog, Vayne, and Corki all do arguably (or unarguably) more damage.
