At any point of IEM Kiev, if you think of an interesting byline, please drop a sentence in the Pro Scene thread. (e.g. "Day 2: M5 hype was everything people expected")

At the end of the month, I'll catalogue the results of Kiev but also any interesting facts or events that happen over the course of the tournament.

Thanks.

The interviews they do before games seem really really weird. Like the questions are all "so how are you going to win and what's your mentality and thinking going into the final match - and no pressure, thats just your opponent sitting next to you."

I bet that TSM will pick some good 1vs1 jungle hero like Trundle and/or ban Shyvana. Regi seems to understand whats going on.

I'm so scared by the looks on his face right now.

Also, is there a video that sums up who Regibro is? Something you could show to a friend who just got into LoL why I am so amused by his behaviour?
currently rooting for myself.

Just a question because I don't really know much about the casters.
Is it really true that all of the tournament casts are handled by Riot staff and if true why?O_o


For one riot pays for a lot of tournaments but mostly its the lack of replay functions.
There is no caster scene for LoL like there is for SC2. There is no day9, no apolo ect.
Riot wanted to get there esports scene rolling so they provided commentators for the initial tournaments.
Since they are the only really experianced commentators at this point they tend to get all the big spots since while some players can do it aswell there actualy playing games.
Once replays gets added to the game I expect a caster scene to take off and riot commentators to be slowly phased out.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Zenon: So, we have the two captains of TSM and M5 here. So Regi, how did you prepare for this tournament? You've looked untouchable?
Reginald: Well, practise practise practise. We lost a lot, we were demotivated. There was a lot of trash talk. We played a lot of solo-queue and messed around but after we scrimmed M5 we lost. We decided that wasn't good enough. So we're really motivated, we're pumped. We're going to win.

Zenon: Alex, so far you've also done very well. But so far all the other teams have been very passive. TSM is a very agressive team. Regi is know was "Aggressive Reginald". *Regi smiles* So what do you plan? Are you prepared?
Alex Ich: It's fine. We play as we always do. We ban out Regi and we win.

Zenon: Well, Diamondprox has been getting a lot of praise, like on Reddit. TOO is also very good, but is he also a good counterjungler? Can he survive?
Reginald: It's all hyped up. It's not about counterjungling. It's about the lanes letting him counterjungle and win. If he's in the jungle, it's because the team is supporting him to do it. It's his mid, helping him, his support helping him, it's the whole team. The whole team.

Zenon: Would you say that you team comps changes to fit your counterjungling strat?
Alex Ich: We're just here to win. We're going to play as we do. And win.

Zenon: You're the American hope in this tournament. There's all the Rocky IV stuff they're saying in Reddit. There's a lot of Russian speakers in Kiev. They have homefield advantage. There are those VLogs on the internet. Is this just another game?
Reginald: It is not another game. We're going to win.

Zenon: So, Alex. 2-0, or 2-1?
Alex Ich: Hm. Well, in the crowd, what you think eh? *cheers*

Zenon: No pressure at all guys, but this is the epic game we've all been waiting for. I'm going to be watching from front row. I'm super excited, I hope everyone at home is as well. Everyone can't wait. Let's hope for a great Bo3!

I have to say this translator is really amazing, he retains what they say so well. Really smooth, even though I don't understand what he's saying.
