Yes, these games won't be OGN level. Watch how you express yourself when these players make poor plays.

the way it works is that the 1 seed plays the 4 seed, and the 2 plays the 3 in every group
winner of each play each other, losers play
first team to 2 wins gets first seed out of their group. second team to 2 wins gets second seed
all bo1


then in the bracket, it will be first see A v second seed D, second seed A v first seed D, 1st B v 2nd C, 1st C v 2nd B
all bo3

winners of the first round are salaried

the bot 4 teams then play another bracket where top team gets salaried

That means Crs, FeaR, Meat, C9 make it through the first wave of 4. EpiK takes the 5th slot.
My dark horse bet is still on Salad Bar. Fingers crossed!

You think EG beats GGU? Their bot seems weak, and Dan's always Dan, and I'm banking on WR losing top to ZionSpartan.

And man wtf what kind of lame name is Brunch Club. SSSLVL18 was the best evar l0l.

I'm guessing Riot had some problems with that name =(

how much do you follow the NA scene, neo? Meat is playing with 2 subs because pobelter and lightsludge are underaged. Pulse underwent roster changes as recently as 2 weeks ago (if not more recently). 1TP got 2-0'd in the first round of every qualifier including the r5 qualifier (but got the win due to phantomlord's team cheating); their players aren't even all diamond -_-.

A: Curse, Brunch Club
B: Fear, GGU
C: DirtNap, Falafel
D: Cloud 9, MRN

i'm fairly certain that's how it's going to play out, the only ones i'm not sure about are: group C - Meat or Falafel for 2nd place, because Falafel's team is really good at winning single games. Don't think they can beat meat in a bo3 but groups are bo1 so who knows. group B - FeaR is supposed to be really bad at LANs and they're missing their "leader," but maybe aphro was the distraction at LANs, who knows. But i think if they can get through groups they'll be solid for the bracket. And then in the bracket, i'm not sure who will win between Brunch and Cloud9, they're pretty even. But i like the guys on Brunch so i'll give them the edge


of course anything can happen in group stages, no one knows how much cheese is going to be brought or who's going to choke. but if teams play at the level that their recent history shows, it should pan out something like the above

I think cat8 is not bad. PGB's support pool might be a detriment.
Is Wings not attending the live qual? If so, then yeah n/m. I'm going with GGU.

As long as C9 gets through I'll be happy. Those ex-Quantics deserve a break. Also, they're definitely at least PRETTY good.

Actually, I don't know. I don't know how I feel about GGU's lineup. I think Mash is really meh as an AD player, and while I think ZionSpartan's pretty good and Nintendude is good with his set of champions, I can't really gauge the rest of the team due to a lack of knowledge of how good their mid and support are. Plus I think they've replaced a few players as well as of recent, so that could perhaps be a factor as well.

I'm hoping EG makes it, but I don't know what to think really. I'm hoping WR plays well, and if he and Salce play well I think there's a good shot for them as long as bot doesn't feed and Dan builds reasonable items. Can only hope.

I daresay cat8 is better than MashMe. zzz
And I do like EpiK's solo lanes more, just hoping for Wings or A game Westrice that doesn't tunnel vision.

P(A game Westrice that doesn't tunnel vision) = .5
P(Dan builds reasonable items) = .6

P(A game WR w/o tunnel and Reasonable Dan) = Not very high

Would be hard to think Epik won't advance. Just with lan experience etc, they have an advantage. Curse, Epik, Meat, MRN standout the most to me for advancing.

ah that hurts Guitar

I agree with Group A, Curse and Brunch takes that.
Group B: we are either going to place 1 or 2, GGU looked really weak vs Brunch Club yesterday aswell as the skill level of the players are as follows:
Salce > Shiptur
Westrice > ZionSpartan
Cat8 and Mashme will be decided by a good day
PGB > I am anjo IF he gets his supports
Dan < Nintendude, though only if a few factors plays it in Nintendudes favor (say Salce and Dan going on a tilt or something)

Group C: DnG and 1trick Ponies. Falafel good, but not that good, and you allready talked about Meat Playground.
Group D Team MRN and Cloud 9 (ex-nomnom, ex-quantic) Azure lost their arguably best player and not sure if Ehomda can carry to victory.

Brackets would be:
Curse vs Cloud 9 (curse wins)
TBC vs MRN (TBC wins)
Fear vs 1TP (Fear wins)
EpiK vs DnG (EpiK wins I dont believe in your statement yesterday Guitar )

Curse, TBC, Fear and Epik Qualify.

5th spot brackets:
Cloud 9 vs MRN (MRN wins)
1TP vs DnG (DnG wins)

MRN vs DnG (DnG wins)
5th spot goes to DnG

Think that is all

Also thanks for showing faith Neo ^^

actually, if epik bans olaf/elise, they could steamroll GGU
just take away nintendude's only 2 champs and gimp zionspartan, then play somewhat passively and you guys will be fine

Watching their scrims, Dan actually builds reasonable items rather than his soloq tiger udyr stuff.

Just sometimes he has questionable decision making (unnecessary high risk plays) which either net a huge advantage (WORTH IT, because you judge a risk by its results and not the risk right?) or severely gimp himself and his lane.

Hopefully with higher stakes he goes for safer but surer choices and his leadership will really shine.
