@sedicius: Current KR Allstar #1 votes: Top Maknoon 32.6%, Mid Ambition 37.5%, Bot Pray 33.9%, Support Madlife 76.4% (lmao), Jungle Insec 53.9%"

For those interested. I don't know too much about the scenes other than NA and EU but that looks like a pretty beast KR Allstar team.

Also, without watching vods or streams, how can I get more informed on the KR/SEA/TW/CN scenes?


Without watching VODs or streams, you'll only hear second hand accounts of these teams, and will not be able to make judgements of your own. But if that's not an option for you, here's a quality post by a guy who summarized the Korean scene as a whole. It's just one guy's opinion though.

http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1br77i/nubofdeaths_ogn_olympus_champions_spring_2013/

As for the voting, it's just a casual vote for the players with the most exposure, just like it is for the other regions. There are people voting for Locodoco, simply because they want to reunite him with Madlife. Legitimately good players, acknowledged by professional players and high solo-que players alike, such as Imp and Expession are being out-voted by players with bigger fan bases. Everybody knew that this tournament would never be a fair representation of the regions involved, but nevertheless, it's disappointing as hell.

Oh well, might as well see Maknoon trolling the team for everyone's entertainment. There are so many quality players like Kakao, bengi, Deft, Expession, Imp, and Faker who might never get the chance to represent Korea if not for this tournament. People don't care though.


Please elaborate. The only player I think that doesn't belong on the team is Maknoon[EDIT: Arguably PraY could be replaced by another adc], and if Maknoon is your weakest player, I'll say you still in good shape.

Anyone knows Garena voting?


Ambition: Experienced, safe pick. I personally prefer Faker, but I can see where the majority is seeing here. Totally legitimate pick, and I have absolutely zero qualms here. God forbid RapidStar overtakes him.

Maknoon: Are you kidding me? Maknoon would tell you himself that Expession is better. Not in a better shape, not on a hot streak, just straight out better. Several professional gamers have voiced similar opinions also, as well as high ELO amateurs.

Ssumday and Flame are on a roll as well, and have some international experience, but I'll let them slide as their body of work as a whole is not that extensive. However, Expession is a proven top laner that is way less erratic than Maknoon, whose throwing ability comes into question especially considering how poorly he is performing at the moment. There is absolutely no reason to pick Maknoon whether you are picking him in terms of current form, or overall ability as a player.

PraY: I'm actually thankful he is in first place, because otherwise Locodoco would end up representing Korea. I'd much rather prefer Imp to represent Korea, however, I'll concede PraY is the more experienced of the two. There are others such as Deft who has had better performances than PraY recently, but we'll ignore form. Imp, on the other hand, has been playing at a high level for quite some time, and should be in contention. Imp is in a better shape, no question, but I won't go as far as to say he is a superior player without question.

Madlife: Madlife isn't even on a hot streak. There's no synergy between the potential bottom-lane. Madlife just happens to be the biggest name. While Madlife isn't neccessarily a poor pick, people are completely forgetting about existing bottom-lanes. What exactly is the reasoning for picking two famous players that have never played with one another, when both players aren't at the top of their game at the moment? You can either go for existing bottom lanes that have proven class, or you can pick two amazing players that are on a blazing hot streak. This duo of PraY and Madlife is a strange compromise of the two, and I can see no good coming from that.

Give me Imp and Mata any day of the week. But I guess they're not famous enough. Hell, I'd even settle for PraY and Cain. At least they have a good synergy going for them. It's kind of like Yellowpete and Edward representing Europe. Two famous names, with very little thought put into the actual end result.

inSec: Another player that I'm thanking god is in the first place. Otherwise we'll have Cloud-bloody-Templar representing our region. There are more in form players, but I think inSec is a good compromise between sufficient skills to go with the neccessary recognition from the fans. A legitimate pick.

I guess I'm most discontent with the top lane, and am not amazed by any means by the potential bottom lane duo of PraY and Madlife. That's three out of five picks I am not happy with, and I am certain that any coach or professional player suffering from a stroke could come up with a better team than that. I'm aware that this is the nature of fan-based voting, but it doesn't stop me from being severely disappointed that famous names are being chosen over worthy players with smaller fan bases. I mean, this is perhaps the one and only chance for players like Expession to make a name for himself in front of the world, even if it is just a exhibition match.

I think Expession is better than Maknoon. Maknoon thinks Expession is better than himself. Woong thinks Expession is better than Maknoon. Everybody who has played against Expession has ackowledged his skill level. But none of this will matter if nobody remembers him because Maknoon happens to have a bigger fanbase, thus more exposure on the international level (which will draw even more fans). Maybe Maknoon isn't such a bad player to fall back on (he truly is a quality player). But Expession deserves it more, and this may be his only chance because his team most likely won't qualify for any of the big international tournaments.

Who cares though, right? Maknoon is awesome, and that's what this competition should be, an awesome tournament between superstars of the game, not a legitimate competition between the best players possible.

You seem really upset about Maknoon winning over Expession. But you know what? Maknoon is still gonna outclass whatever Top laner NA and EU send to represent. Sure, Expession is a beast, but the nature of fan vote's is that the more popular players are going to get picked. That said it's clear the KR team is head and shoulders above the NA/EU team. Also I don't think Maknoon is going to troll or anything. This isn't like the last all-star match where he played Teemo, this is a whole extra qualification spot for the World Championships that KR probably deserves.


I can't speak for North American, or European selection because I'm quite oblivious to what goes on over there. But I believe it's pretty much the same bullshit over there too. People being voted in because of their recognition, instead of their value as a player. I resent with that very sentiment, why reward people for their fame, not talent? The point of playing the game is to be the best at it, not be the most famous for playing it, right? It doesn't matter how talented and hard working Maknoon is, if Expession happens to be better than him right now. It was our chance as fans to reward someone who has been working at his art really hard, but has yet to reap the benefits.

Maknoon is an amazing player with a winning personality. I don't question him as a player, but he shouldn't be topping the charts right now. There are others more deserving than him, and some of them are not even being given a second glance.

As for the World Championship qualification spot, I'm kind of skeptical over whether the team Korea would take it as of now. I'm ever hopeful, of course.

The one game I saw with Dinter he had a perfect game as support Lulu though. I don't really know how strong TPA's botlane is compared to the test of the team honestly. They're really solid, but its not like Stanley, Ballz or Toyz who kind of just slowly steamroll.

I have a feeling fans will vote to get MiSTakE and Bebe back together though.

I'm not sure TPS players can even be counted in the vote? They're not officially in GPL.

Regarding TPA's bot lane, Bebe is a top class AD who is probably about as good as Uzi and second only to Weixiao (weaker laner and makes less aggressive plays than Uzi; but has more experience executing lategame teamfights). Dinter has not impressed me--though I think the biggest loss in losing Mistake doesn't have to do with his individual ability as a support, but the loss of TPA's captain.


I recall an interview with Mistake saying that Bebe was very conservative and safe laner while the AD for TPS (and the team as a whole) GodJJ was more aggressive.

I agree though that losing the team captain and shotcaller probably hurt TPA. I hope they switch him back after he teaches TPS some stuff though.

EDIT: Good god, Uzi is like 16, he's younger than my little brother.

TBH I think sOAz can play 50% 50% against maknoon.


On a good day sure but sOAz's problem has always been consistency. He's been far more reliable lately but can't say he's overcome the problem with such a small sample size. Never know which sOAz is going to show up.


Peke is super inconsistent and IMO it just spills everywhere. Not that I don't love Peke, but sometimes he feels like he has 10 deaths in a game.


you call peke inconsistent, i say his only bad game in ALL lcs matches so far was the tf vs fizz game last week vs Gambit.

And even then he kept himself super relevant.

That game was an anomaly. I'm talking about games where he ends up with a fairly good score, Fnatic wins, but he was 0/2 at some point, or was 6/0 then ends 7/3. Peke just has weird "Peke goes ham" moments.

What did you think about ChaosX's departure from TSM?

gtr/Velocity getting murdered on Reddit for trying to raise money to bring Deezer to IPL6. Rightfully so.

gtr asks about him, everyone tells him that Deezer is a piece of shit/hacker/racist, and then you go and accept him on to your team anyways. AND THEN, you don't reveal his real identity while asking for donations, instead just calling him 1g1d when you know who it actually is.

I'm going to be honest. I have been extremely disappointed with gtrsrs's behavior as manager of both DNG and Velocity. You aggressively trash talk other teams and players, have a hugely inflated view of "your team" and "your players", and in my mind just act completely inappropriate for a manager who wants his team to be taken so seriously/treated like a professional organization.

You might not give a shit if I'm disappointed, but I really wished for a lot better from a guy who is such a known TL community member. I love supporting TL LoL players in their endeavors, it's really exciting and I feel a connection to them. gtr with his teams was no different until gtr's attitude completely ruined any good will I had, and even turned that into bad will.

Meh.

IMO genja doesn't deserve #1, it is rare that he carrys a game and has bad games (starts) and gets bailed out by diamond a fair bit.
I'd rather see Yellowpete ( the safest bet ) or Candypanda ( high risk, but if he has a good game he is great) or ultimate wildcard Hosan so long as he can have Draven .

Genja deserves it just because of edward; he'll have best synergy with him.

it's good that he gets it because eddie is going 100%

I think you don't give him enough credit though, of course he gets overshadowed by alex diamond and edward ( and sometimes darien) but he's been pretty on point lately, always good position and beastly farm.

And comparing him to pete's performance lately...well, let's just say that being the "safest option" shouldnt be equivalent to always losing lane.
