-everyone else is dealing with very recent roster changes. i'm expecting things to go poorly for most of them as they work their shit out
-this tournament is lulzy. i expect preparation levels to vary. LGD has every motivation to make up for worlds and therefore should be full tryhard

I agree with your analysis. LGD and TSM are the teams that have sth to prove here. TSM with their changes cant be at a level to overcome the individual advantages of LGD though.
OG vs LGD will be close I think. PoE is a monster and Niels/Mithy is the best botlane in the west by a good margin. Soaz prob hasnt played a dozen soloq games since worlds though.
CLG vs UoL will be the biggest clownfiesta in the history of LoL. Whoever wins will get swept by the korean team.
