Keep the rage to a minimum. This includes wait times between games, music, and balance.

Fair warning to all.

fuck, i wish i had a favorite. Like I did with Navi against 7 asian teams... any underdogs here that have atleast some chance of getting far?
thanks

CLG EU or M5 are the non-Asian teams that have the best shot to win the whole thing.


Oh i have nothing against asians - like everyone i love to cheer for the underdog, and id hardly call M5 the underdog.


Cheer for Najin Sword, most ppl thought they wouldn't even get into this tournament. Maknoon carried them :D

Well, now at least when M5 destroys iG I can at least say I saw this coming since before they even drew M5. It should be an interesting game, much like Game 1.


even if they do lose, unless it looks like the games in the finals of the eu regional it ain't no thang, like I would be really surprised if anyone other than m5 / iG / Frost wins this thing so losing to m5 in a non stomp really proves nothing to me.

I think CLGeu could also do well.

I think World Elite could go far too.

No but really, I just think they're overhyped, and despite being very good - better than all NA teams cept for TSM, they're going to go down to M5, but really they would have gone down to anyone.

The main thing I disagree with is the fact that you're saying iG is not good enough to beat these teams. It's not going to be a walkover. They're not the favorites, but given the absolutely insane play iG is capable of executing when they really turn it on (of course accompanied by the possibility for insane throws) means they CAN win. They only need to take 2 games out of a Bo3.

Against M5, CLG.EU, Frost, or Sword, I would call IG the underdog against all these teams. But against none of them would I say they're incapable of winning like you have.

Where I disagree with you good sir is that I'd be surprised if iG even made it to the finals. Like... I'd offer myself up for public humiliation if they did beat M5. And I should be publicly humiliated if they do advance, but they won't so I'm about as cool as Tim Tebow right now.

And them outplaying Frost so hard for the first 15 minutes of their first game, and then complete and utter throw (mostly on the merit of Leona) just kinda underlines the fact that they're big choke artists, much like the second rate teams that I compare them to.
Hey! How you doin'?

I'm not talking about doing well, I'm talking about winning, and it's an opinion so I can be wrong, but I'll be really suprised if someone outside of these 3 teams wins, especially now that (I assume) m5 and frost are on opposite sides of the bracket.

I really like Dig, but I would be pretty surprised if they make it out of their group.

Edit - I give CLGeu a better than 1/10 chance at first.

Froggen is kinda hit and miss during big LANs really.Sure he is the star of the team but he has a tendency to kinda fade in the background and not do a whole lot when his team needs him the most.I wouldn't call it choke but idk.
Maybe he gets nervous or something.
