And yet i feel like playing in a season of OGN would also do a ton of c9's game. There is a limit with how good your own game can be depending on the level of opponents you play regularly. | ||

people get to hung up on world rank on if something is good, I think this is why people are so divided on how good Xpecial is, if you are like hey this guy is a really good player, I don't think you'd get that much push back, but for some reason people always want to make wild claims like top 5 supports in the world, hell no, and that isn't an insult. | ||

It was soaz, on another note I remember cloudtemplar saying that mineski could be a good team with solid practice some pros do make some big claims on quality of teams lol. His comment was during a mineski match at worlds which went like "Mineski are actually pretty good if they practiced more" | ||

honestly the way Korean teams looked at worlds (good but not god mode) I feel like the playing field could be pretty even if the ability to practice with Asian teams at lan speed was available to top NA/EU teams, unfortunately it is not. | ||

Wei was correct in defending Turtle/Xpecial as a "not to be trifled with in the NA LCS" lane, but crushed his own argument under the weight of top 5 world. look, Huk had good micro, nobody would have made fun of him if he just said, "I got some really good micro skills" but instead he had to lose his mind for a moment. | ||

korean teams were really underprepared for worlds, had a late patch timing, and they were extensively studied before then. i think on hardware (player talent) and software (coaching, team research etc) conditions, their true level was not properly reflected at worlds, at least during groups | ||

They're still douchebags, and now they're also no longer the best talent in NA. Let it go. | ||

Yung bjersen is a god. I'd root for him no matter what team he's on. Now he actually has a botlane that can do stuff, they gunna shit on the NA teams so hard. As far as tsm still sucking compared to world class teams, that'll still happen until dyrus stops feeding 8 kills in first 5 min of game. | ||
