Man, this Korean fad is getting ridiculous. I hope every team with Koreans (save Team Liquid. Go Piglet!) does poorly so that western teams breed their own talent. I don't want this to become SC2.
All of which makes me anxious; At times unbearably so.

Is this the end for Soaz? He's been on the downswing for a while and his worlds was very poor. Throw in some talk of motivation problems and picking him up becomes a risky proposition.

It's the Korean puppy theory. If you get one Korean he will get lonely, so you have to get a second Korean so they have someone to play with.


Yeah was pretty hard watching that lonely puppy in CLG's toplane for a whole split.

It's a buddy system. That way the single new player is less likely to get homesick/lonely. Gives them someone to talk to in korean when they need it.

Lets see how they will go up against the other European Teams. I think they will be in the middle because they have such a good Midlaner and a good Botlane.

Wasn't impressive at all in Expansion Tournament even with Hiva in lane, given that Celaver and Libik were pretty good in 2v2s. We'll see how it goes, clearly Yellowstar sees something in him else they would have gone with Tabzz or some proven adc.

Steelback is wildcard, can be really good, especially with Yellowstar 'coaching' him.

I dont have faith at all in this line up,im not sold on koreans in fnatic,good team would be yellow,tabbZ,febiven,dexter,jwaow(or some other top). I could have faith in that team but this one looks bad on paper. I hope they do good but most likely wont happen with how good sk rocccat and alliance are looking. Even fking mym is decent

Imagine if all the Koreans who went to China would have gone to EU! Ha! Anyway, maybe the general consensus is, if everybody has 2 Koreans in their team, then nobody has an advantage as they all have to balance individual skill with team play and communication.

What? Fnatic is the only EU team with 2 Koreans, overall it is 4 Koreans in EU LCS. It is a surprisingly low number.

There are rules in place to insure it does not become SC2. The rules are there already to prevent it so their should be no fear of it. This is what it is.

Really excited to see how Steelback will do. I was his manager on SK Prime and during that time he never once played with a support that knew how to properly control the lane phase, I think that was the key that Steelback was missing. With Yellowstar guiding him he could become a real star in Europe. As for the others, I feel like Febiven could also be great but as usual, depends how he does on LAN week in, week out. Haven't seen ReignOver and Huni play so I won't comment.
can u delete this fking tweet you kid? you think im joking or what? :)

I agree with dodsangel,this is just clusterfuck unless koreans speak english amd arent shy about it,everyone knows that insec and zero going to royal and playing well is a exception to the rule,i just dont know what these teams expect by bringing in unproven players who cant communicate well most likely. I cant wait to see koreans fail and go back to korea where they belong. These moves just dont make any sense whatsoever

To be fair, ReignOver was the only shining light for IM#2. Kinda surprised he wasn't picked up by a bigger korean team during "the great korean exodus". Still language barrier is an issue and Huni is just some random who might be the next Flame but probably not. I still like players being shuffled around regions though, it increases the amount of skill in each region instead of one being really far ahead. Although I hope that at some point western players will be good enough to join eastern teams, otherwise we'll have the issue of B-tier koreans/chinese in EU and NA, and A-tier koreans/chinese in China and KR.
ayy lmao

I dont want the LCS EU to become like the "NA" LCS where there are barely NA players.

Not sure how I feel about this roster.

Need to wait and see until LCS if they even be a top team.

A very interesting lineup. I really hope Yellowstar will still get to worlds, like every year.
