What's really gonna be awkward is him with 4 EG players who are used to play together >>

But he's fucking Diamondprox, he's so much better than Snoopeh it doesn't even matter and his English is good enough.
The good thing about an extended vote is that tactical play will start to come into it.
Since there's no way Bergsen can win I may as well spend all my other votes on xPeke and see if I can bump him up - hopefully lots of others will do the same.

The NA team looks alright to be honest and a decent representation of NA skill. Voyboy, Scarra, Saint, Xpecial, Doublelift is a pretty cool team.

Other than patoy>>>>>>>xpecial I'd say that team is pretty ok.Eu isn't THAT bad but could be a lot better.

Soaz/Diamond/Xpeke(/bjergsen)/Hosan(/Candy)/Edward COME ON GUYS.

I dont get why everyone is so excited about the whole all-star thing. I mean we all know that pro LoL is not about randomly throwing together some individuals, but having a real team with synergy, common strategies etc. Any real, established team should beat any "all-star" team 9 out of 10 times. So in the end this is just about which region manages to send the most amount of players from one team, ideally all players from one team.
But Europe will send a mix of Gambit/EG players, which will never ever work. Its the stupidest thing ever. I mean if they did something like that for fun, that would be cool. But mixing such show/fun games with the competetive side of things by giving out an extra spot at the finals for this is just retarded.

i voted genja as adc. I think he is the best in EU.

and poor nRated never gets enough credit, best caller in eu w/o doubt.

Synergy comes from being good and it's not like they've never met each other before.
How many times have we seen a sub bring an initial boost to a team - fresh strategies and ideas are often a good thing.
They will feel they have a job to do and will have confidence from the fact that they've been selected.
And the prize of an extra region spot is SO good that you can guarantee the players will take it dam seriously and turn up at that tournament determined to win.
Personally I can't wait and I bet the games will be very high level.

CandyPanda is really good, especially knowing that Oce almost never protects him in teamfights. He's not that flashy but god is he efficient. Especially, he gets a better KDA with less golds than either Genja or Yellowstar, which is a pretty strong feat.

Genja's KDA isnt good because Edward and Diamond kills everyone before him -_- you should watch genja's positioning in team fights, its godly.

If you bring in one new player into an established team of 4 it can be alright. Well if that one is not the jungler. Other than that, forget about it. Especially if you think of gambit players, who are just used to listening to calls from Alex_Ich. I dont expect any synergy between EG and Gambit players. Also, why would any Gambit player care about this extra spot?
Sorry, but with this extra spot been given out for such random shit the whole thing is just a mockery of competetive LoL.

I'd say the NA votes aren't going too bad. Aside from Patoy getting shafted at Support I think the rest of the team is reasonable so far. And yeah, these games will be played seriously due to the winner guaranteeing their region an extra spot during the World Championship. While this is a pretty big deal it makes sure they play to their full potential instead of goofing off. I like the incentive, but I agree fan vote isn't ideal in these situations.

That is one of the most unnecessary hyperbolic claims I have ever read. It's not like they are taking spots away from a region, just consider it bonus spot for the region. There was never a point where both regions were going to have one more spot and Riot decided "No, let's have them play for it instead!" Sure the synergy won't be the same as a normal team, but they'll have some time to practice. It will be fun and there's something on the line, gives players reason to actually care instead of goofing off.

Really doubt any of the top teams would try because the region gets an extra spot.Pride on the other hand :p......
