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

How the fuck did TSM know Frost cheated? Unless they were looking at them, which is breaking the rules and possibly looking at the minimap there's no way for TSM to have known Frost looked at the minimap.

Welcome to the hypocrisy. Fact is the teams that advanced all did so on there own merrit. TSM got stomped and would have been stomped. I for one am just looking forward to the rest of the games and not caring about this whole "cheating" thing.

The fact that these accusations are even being flung around is a testament to Riot failing to prioritize correctly.
Yes the integrity of this LoL S2 competitions has been compromised and the way Riot handled this isn't pretty either.
Now there are so many controversies about the cheating(Frost vs TSM) in this 1MIL$$$$ tournament.
Also, there was internet issues.......
More importantly, there will be no LIVE AUDIENCE FOR THE GRAND FINALS to prevent those potential visibility of the mini-map by the players.A grand final without a live audience in Riot 1mil$ premier tournament is honestly a really bad joke.
Riot...Riot....Riot.Maybe the next season tournament will be better but TI2 outclasses in every aspect(client,live audience,casters,production,etc) than Riot S2 World Championship.
Frost and Najin Sword are my favorite team so i hope Frost can take it. I really hope people will stop saying that Frost is cheating.
If Frost wins the finals, i am expecting huge backlash by the NA community. They will probably to find ways to delegitimize Frost win.

Source for this? I haven't heard anything suggesting that was going to be the case.

The semifinals won't have a live audience either, but the grand finals will indeed have a live audience.

That was just an anti lol rumor that the dota community started you shouldn't put any stock into the gossip that comes from them.

Along with a bunch of team owners confirming that it was under discussion and they shat on it forcing Riot to not go through with it.

This post was just an anti-dota rumor that the lol community started so you shouldn't put any stock into the gossip that comes from it.
Listen to scoots and the professionals, not the hack crisis management team at Riot.

it was a rumour that incontrol started lol

I'm sure Incontrol and scoots are the first people to be informed about anything happening at Riot/LoL.
Now stop derailing this thread with your OT

I thought everyone was over that whole incident already, but apparently not.

Along with a bunch of team owners confirming that it was under discussion and they shat on it forcing Riot to not go through with it. There was no red post confirming that they ever considered it. The only post that was made, stated that teams were free to have other squads in the same genre (Dota, Hon, etc.).
Not a single person that allegedly discussed with Riot ever came forward and confirmed such discussions. SirScoots has claimed that discussions took place but he also stated that he himself wasn't involved in them directly. There was someone else from another team that also said, that he heard about these rumors, but again not first-hand knowledge.
I would also like to ask what this has to do with the world finals of S2? I mean seriously, can we please just stick with the finals and not rehash old rumors.

at this point, an OT discussion is more welcome that the 20th iteration of "did azubu frost cheat?". lets just get over it, riot cant act anyways since they abolutely cant be sure that the other teams didnt cheat on stream as well. Then someone finds it and they have to use the same punishment to the other teams.
This is the sad truth, everyone might have cheated and riot cant do anything or they might have no players left to play on sunday.

Yeah lets move on.
Who thinks benefits more from a fresh Bo3, WE or CLG.eu. I would say CLG.eu because I had the feeling that they were getting better and better in drawing out the games to a point where they could teamfight and beat WE. Without disconnects I think WE would have just won the first two games but now I think CLG.eu is slightly favored.
