Locodoco's team possibly coming to NA? Not sure how I feel about that. If they went on to qualify for World's and represent NA that would be... odd considering they aren't really NA, but just sponsored by an NA team. Also feels like a copout on their part not to go against the korean competition. There isn't much reason for them not to play in korea unless you know you're not good enough to hang at the top. | ||

Same theory for the SC WCS, there are only so many invites to worlds, they could guarantee themselves top 8 seed next yr, if they can beat C9. I would do same thing considering the money on the line. | ||

I can't wait for NA teams to buy up KR talent and play for NA spots. I'm not being facetious either, I'd love a bit of Korean talent infusion forcing the NA scrubs to either improve or fall by the wayside. I doubt the NA scene would be completely taken over, but I'll fully support the first NA team who buys great Korean solo queue talent and get them playing here and getting easy worlds spots.  | ||

Their intention was to have every region equally represented to gain a following and promote each region. This is doing the opposite through a loophole. If they wanted this they'd allow any team to participate in the international qualifiers. They have weak teams at Worlds just for this reason alone so yeah.. Considering how many people knew about it beforehand, I would be shocked to hear that Riot did not know about it. I expect they are going to allow it. | ||

Of course they still have to qualify hue. Yeah... considering how things have been ran up to this point (Gambit in EU LCS and Edward) it's gonna be interesting if they can even justifiably deny them. | ||

Woong and Locodoco at this point aren't particularly scary players. The other players are probably some high level solo queue players though. With that said, they probably won't have the same infrastructure as they could have in korea. Loco and Woong would be top 3 in NA in whatever role they chose to be on an NA team (just not loco support). | ||
