Can't wait for the Korean commentated VODs to come out. Sorry, there is just something about watching OGN and having Korean commentary. Seems weird without it.

I suppose it is kind of sad I can tell what those runepages are based on the rune picture and the numbers next to them.
"What is the air speed velocity of an unladen courier?" "Dire or Radiant?"

They are taking this very very seriously

Are there actually VODs on this page? I just see a bunch of empty links that say "Coming Soon!"

It says the last game in the Bo3 and Bo5 matches will be blind pick. Has that ever been done in competitive play before?

Only in the OGN Invitational. They had a game 3 and I think both teams ended up playing Nidalee top. Fun times all around.

Every other league/tournament to the best of my knowledge has used draft.

I don't see a logical reason why you would switch it around for the deciding games. It takes away the whole strategy element of picks and bans and turns it into a luck game of who blindly outpicks whom.

I think the KeSPA reasoning to this would go something along the lines of ...
1) Teams switch between first ban/first pick in the first and second match.
2) One of these two positions (first ban/first pick) is advantageous to the other. (mind you that for the Korean scene, their servers just came out a few months ago, and I'm not too sure how much they keep up with the foreigner meta)
3) Thus if you were to switch twice, one team would have an advantage in the final set.
4) Therefore, blind pick that last game so the the banning and picking chances are symmetrical.

Which should allow for some of the most epic cheeses assuming a team has the balls to do it (CLG I'm looking at you)

I dunno from a player stand point if blind pick is a great idea. But from a spectator point of view? It allows people to play their absolute best champions or best strategies.

I'm sure the Korean scene will change it eventually. Especially if we ever get a two tiered ban phase. But for now I'm going to enjoy the awesome craziness that will surely come out of blind pick round.

The casters' knowledge of the game was just terrible. I understand they may still be learning about LoL, but it really irks me when casters make statements that are simply false. Their knowledge really reminded me of the WC3 tournament that Tastless and Artosis cast when they had no idea what was going on, except in that case it was funny because it was intentional and they played off it.

Kind of going hand in hand with the above, several times straight up incorrect calls were made. At one point a caster was exclaiming how Janna had barely survived with a sliver of health, when she had already been dead 5-10 seconds and you could clearly see her bright red respawn timer with 12 seconds remaining on the left side. He never corrected himself. This sort of general lack of awareness was abundant in all the games IMO.

The lack of knowledge is slightly frustrating knowing there are casters like Jatt, and even more so after watching SC2 tourny streams for so long =] I think if they learn the game better they might be fine, at least they didn't stutter/mumble/etc. That's much less easily fixable.

MKZ v DDol was ttttterrible. Mid was ok, but both bot lanes were just... miles behind what is expected from a competitive team.

Edit: Just for clarification, when I describe casters as being bad, take that with a grain of salt from what I expect from esports these days. And for teams being terrible, I mean for a highly competitive team level.

The mastery pages are wrong for mig. The first one should be rapidstar, second one is woong, and third one is cloudtemplar.

random spawns cuts down on cheese (whats the point of having 4 spawns if you always know opponent is far position?) also if you make your maps with minimal position imbalance random spawns does not matter, and makes scouting more important.

Is there a thread on this in the official LoL forums? I didn't see one and that's kind of sad for such a large tournament.
