"These Poles have been together for close to a year..."

No one said it was a new roster, zzz.

Yes Moscow is in eastern Europe but M5/GG is a EUW team but this is getting away from the point that MYM are not a new roster and stating that they are is pure ignorance.

No one is saying that they're a new roster. Whats pure ignorance is to say that they have done anything in 2012 past a win in an event that no one gives any credence to the teams that went there. That is also literaly the only event anyone has ever seen them even play in.

TBH Carmac should really make an IEM even for SEA and include all the garena teams if garena wants international exposure for any of them. That region is chock full of good teams that never get to see the outside of south east asia.

Good stuff, Neo! PM me up if you need info on the BR teams for São Paulo. I won't be able to provide much info during the event (as I'll be working in it), but before and after I'm game.

With Darien playing Renekton with such ferocity, it's no wonder why Nasus is hiding from the competitive scene.

I love this line.

We had a much tighter deadline with the EU LCS Qualifier coming up tomorrow. It would be great if we can get our other pieces out just as quick but things will really have line up in our favour for that to happen.

I would love if we had a 4 day turn around for our articles in Season 3, lolol. But it really comes down to how many writers we have available at the time and the vision we have for the article. IEM write ups tend to be done quickly. A tournament of IPL5's caliber will take longer simply because of the volume of games to sift through. For Katowice, I probably took 3-4 hours watching VODs and taking notes.

I really regret not watching this series. I saw how bad M5 did on d1 and dismissed them - I thought it would be a Blaze vs Frost final, which while isn't too bad, I've seen them playing like 12 games on OGN already.

I decided to take a power nap, and when I wrote up, M5 won the tournament. wtf.

Typo - Xpeke attacking a turretless throne would require him to have left the LoL stage and go log into steam.

I think that was intended, the same as when they talk about "the high ground" for attacking the inhib turrets.

Korean dominance greatly exaggerated?

I think not. Need to see how things play out over the coming months.

(I don't think Koreans will dominate, though I have the feeling asia as a whole will)
