It's not really domination. The only reason I predict them ahead of Taiwan and Korea is because of the Shanghai home crowd advantage.

If the event were held in a neutral setting I'd probably even have them at 3rd behind both those teams.

Pretty sure they'll stomp though, only the koreans i see having a chance

I just remembered that Redbeard said the Taiwan team gets a bye to the 2nd round of double elim.

That might be enough for me to put them at 1st. A free bye is worth a lot with so few rounds.

I know NA is going to lose but I hope they at least put up a good fight.

I might be wrong here yango, not sure if I read it here or on reddit, but I thought TPS is now allowed bc they aren't part of GPL and with the 3 men rule, it's 2 players from different GPL teams, I think someone mentioned Archie from Saigon Jokers the ad and someone else? If that's true the SEA team might actually have the biggest language issues.

I could be totally remembering sth wrong though.

i think they solved this because TPS players are still on all-star poll.

here is the SEA poll:

pretty nice that the allstar team will be practicing in the curse house, expect next weeks news to be " asian nerd beat up by crazy canadian who he trashtalked online".

Thx Mensol, lol if SEA sends that team, they are pretty much top 2 contender imo. Bebe+Mistake , well basically TPA with a different jungler, Ohreal is decent, I would have loved to see lantyr though

Doublelift and Xpecial are definitely comparable in skill to most Asian pros, even if the other lanes/Saint are less certain.

LOL

Doublelift on form, sure. Doublelift like he's been playing in LCS? No fucking way.

even doublelift on form, i'm not so sure about anymore.

the top chinese adcs are practically invisible. you can't find them in the fight, then the fight is over and they have a bunch of kills and a billion cs.

Wait, if Diamond is playing for EU, how are they going to communicate? Going full solo queue style with just pings?

Alex can probably translate long term strategy stuff (gank timings ect). It's team fights where I can see it being a little bit rougher.

They don't even put players names, just photos. Wouldn't work as well in NA and EU.

Uh, not that I've noticed. I've gotten mid probably ~80% of the time if I'm 3rd pick or higher (always take it if I'm 1st obv). Even if I'm 4th or 5th pick I'll get it like 40-50% of the time when I ask for it.

If you are playing ranked you must own the champ for it to show.

I think it's fucking bullshit that China has Misaya instead of Zz1tai but China should win anyway.
