We should totally do showmatches with a caster exchange--have Phreak/Riv cast SC2 and Bitter/Rotterdam cast LoL. I know MrBitter is actually pretty good at LoL--he would have cast with me in China had Elementz not come through to save the day (and had Bitter not lost his voice).
My modesty is awesome.

An sc2 player league showmatch would be cool to watch.

Wax here. Here's a story from IPL3.

I was getting back to my room at 6AM after the last day, drunk as fuck and what not. In front of my hotel door are like three kids sitting around, it looks like they're locked out. They're wearing the IPL shirts so I'm like "Hey you guys were here for SC2 too?"

And they're like "No, we're LoL players."

And then I proceeded to shit on their no-skill, garbage game.

At which point they calmly responded by saying they understand some of the criticisms against LoL, talked about how they appreciate the skill required in SC2, and in general were very manner. And then we had a nice discussion about competitive games which was very constructive.

Long story short, TreeEskimo is pretty manner.

Phreak: "So how did picks and bans go?"
Sypher: "Well, we thought it was all good but after we picked Morgana we realised that we had left Koggles open for CandyPanda who is great at Kog... And we facepalmed."

Phreak: "What do you think about the lane swapping that SK did?"
Sypher: "They wanted to counter the Nasus. It's something they picked up from the NA teams."

Phreak: "Does anyone else play Nasus at the top level?"
Sypher: "Not really. He's kinda counterable. But he's good at mid-late game. But Kogmaw uses W+E and then I can't walk in. And then Anivia has her wall. I can't kill him and neither can my team. CandyPanda is just so good."

Phreak: "What about using Akali or other assassins?"
Sypher: "We had decided our team before the ban phase and we thought that they'd banned Koggles since they were 2nd pick. Maybe the game would have been more interesting without him."

Phreak: "You and Curse Gaming. Who has more chance."
Sypher: "I won't talk about this... We never played against them, they are a NA team and we'll make smart bans and picks."

Phreak: "Anything about Curse you're worried about?"
Sypher: "I won't say haha. We already know the 3 bans we want to make against them."
Phreak: "Does it involve Koggles?"
Sypher: "Depends if we get first pick or not hahaha."

Phreak: "How often do you win against the favourites like Fnatic and SK?"
Sypher: "We know Fnatic loves double AP so you can anticipate it. Wickd likes solo top bruisers so we try to counter pick him. Doesn't always work. We checked his runes before and saw he had APen. We asked an Admin if he could change runes after picks and he heard us ask and he changed it to fit Galio."

Phreak: "What did you think of v8?"
Sypher: "We know about the Karthus of PhantomLord. So we instabanned him. We see him play Revive-Teleport which we never see in EU. Dyrus does it on Jax. We don't know how to play against it. Curse knows them more than us, we we'll follow those bans. And Koggles. Ban Koggles."

Phreak (re v Curse): "Does Udyr beat Akali?"
Sypher: "Hm... yes I think. I hurt her a lot. So they swapped Morgana to top. It's a little hard against her because of her Black Shield. Cassi did well mid too."

Phreak: "What do you think of your chances?"
Sypher: "I think it's balanced. SK told us we can win so we'll try to do it."

Phreak: "Who's your top 3 teams here?"
Sypher: "I'm surprised Fnatic won 3 games. And about TSM. So yeah, I'm impressed, want to check the games. Fnatic is really in shape. I see, uh... Hm. SK has got a chance. And I don't know about the rest."
Phreak: "So no chance for CLG and Fnatic?
Sypher: "SK is more used to play Fnatic than Americans. So they know them a lot more, especially about good picks/bans for double AP."

Phreak: "Shoutouts?"
Sypher: "Bonjour le France! Hi to the community following us. I want to say that we thank our sponsors Steel Series who let us come here. And, uh, I dunno haha."

PhantomL0rd's Karth is pretty famous. He just needs to learn more AP champions now. One trick ponies don't fly at tournaments.
