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

Fair warning to all.

TSM only hope for non-Asia

edit: forgot about M5, so TSM & M5 only hope for non-Asia

So who's Na'Vi and does the lack of a loser's bracket here mean that the West will win in the end anyways?

Also, HOLY SHIT ARCHIE.


Ah shit I dunno prob M5? I just think it's quite funny how often this same situation seems to happen regardless of the game being played.

It might be even closer than that with M5 being the equivalent to Na'Vi.

Yeah M5 is definitely equivalent to Na`Vi (could win whole thing), while maybe TSM will be the fierce but ultimately losing competitor like EG (had good games vs iG).

Pretty sure most ppl on TL expected Azubu and IG from group A, and Sword and CLG.EU from B. So far only 'upset' has been jokers beating dig... which is more funny than surprising.

Yeah taunt when the tower dies so it does no damage whatsoever.
Whatever, Dig against wastes my time with verry dissapointing play, and CLG.eu still as boring to watch as ever. cba to watch the last sets, sleep way better.

They lost when they didn't ban that hammer guy imo ^_^

It's not even that they lose, it's the way they lose. Last time, I believe it was the NA qualifiers, their losses were pretty dissapointing too. It's hard to cheer for them when they make you rage by going "why on earth do you do that?!" every 8 seconds.
So I cheer for professionnal chokers and a team which play bores me. I think I'm doing something wrong. x)

This means Dignitas can't advance so they should be mad. They can still force a three way tie if some mysterious things happened, but they wouldn't be one of the three teams so ^_^

I would watch the "foreign" stream, but I don't understand a word of Korean, Russian, and even Chinese (I'm not fluent in Mandarin). So that leaves me English streamers...

Jokers beating CLGeu. It's gonna happen.

I can't wait.

Also if all these teams are seeded into S3, season 3 is gonna be a total joke. It seems like you could pick a bunch of random korean teams and they'd be better than NA.

Yea but TL is a small smart community. The "fan polls" kind of said differently didn't it?
