Your records have 102 wins in a League that only plays 90 games a split. 1. C9 2. TL 3. TSM 4. CLG 5. TiP 6. GRV 7. Dig 8. WFX 9. T8 10. CST | ||

This was the challenger team that was the first seed, I think they're being heavily underestimated. | ||

Honestly, the facts make it hard to put them over C9 or CLG botlane; regardless if they are TL I'm rating old Curse (now TL) higher because of three main reasons: 1. The core of the team is still pretty strong (case in point, they were 1 win away from going to Worlds last year). 2. By in large, most are experienced players used to the rigors of scrims and stage play. 3. I still doubt TSM's bot lane duo, as Turtle's been slumping pretty hard and we've yet to see him play a game since Worlds where he was arguably the main reason they couldn't get past the Quarterfinals. CLG's bot lane is probably stronger than TL's, but I doubt the rest of CLG (ie., Link) is stronger than the top, mid, and jungler of TL. And I'm not changing the record prediction, mainly cause I'm lazy. I have T8 last because I've just not heard or seen a peep about them since the promotion tournament. | ||

That makes them the same team that's been rocking the challenger scene for most of the year, who actually contended with LMQ in the games they played against them, who got in during the promotion (not expansion) tournament and only couldn't qualify for the mid-season promotion tournament because they went up against LMQ early in their bracket. I guess it does mean no random import koreans, although they do now have Alex Ich apparently. | ||

Also T8 has been around for almost 2 years and just hasnt been able to get into the LCS, despite all this and being complexity, they are still weak. Looking at the lineups, they dont look very strong, they wont make it very high despite entering the LCS. | ||

Lets be real here, TSM wouldn't just let themselves roll over like a dog. Korea could not be beaten, and if you look at the stats, Samsung only lost 3 times to other teams besides there own team. (Before Finals) Not even Royal Club could get 2 wins off of Samsung White. Blaming the whole reason they lost on wildturtle is a pretty big blame. Amazing did not stand out in that Bo5 either. | ||

Team 8's players have been around, but the team itself formed only halfway through first split of last year. They then still got enough points to qualify for the Challenger playoffs, but because they'd gotten fewer points they were seeded fairly low and went up against LMQ early. | ||

I honestly think Blue would have beat Royal Club if the two ever played at that point. The only team that really didn't get massacred by the Samsungs were Royal Club and Cloud 9 tbh. | ||

Alex-ich left T8 to form his own team after a day. Also T8 has been around for almost 2 years and just hasnt been able to get into the LCS, despite all this and being complexity, they are still weak. Looking at the lineups, they dont look very strong, they wont make it very high despite entering the LCS. You couldn't be more wrong. Alex Ich didn't leave T8, he is a sub for T8 and starting for Brawl. So he is still with T8, and never joined as a starter, always a sub. Also T8 hasn't been competing for 2 years, and the time they didn't make the LCS is because they went 1-2 vs LMQ, which is no easy task. I agree with a few people here... T8 is being grossly underestimated. I think largely because they have a smaller fan base and lesser known players. People just haven't been watching them closely and are writing them off. | ||
