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

Just think about tomorrow where it's literally "If you win you qualify, if you lose you have to win two more matches to qualify" That's gonna be brutal.

Edit: although statistically you're more likely to qualify than to not qualify lol.

Yeah it's depressing :/.

On the other hand if the Amateur tournament is good then those teams could still make decent money playing league.
Go go Alliance.

You are a good guy!

And yes, I am also always thinking about the grave consequences for the teams that dont make it.
Imo for the European qualifier this will be even more harsh, because the pro scene is a little more broad there and some really good teams wont make it.
Off-season = best season

You can have sympathy for the teams, but really, without competition there would be no e-sports. The day that you are just better at this game than the general population to make money has gone.
Its true for sports too, you see Kobe Bryant making millions of dollars per year and idolize him but there are countless people that failed to archive anything too. Its just the way it is.

Hey, I went to bed after group C, anyone mind summarizing groups A and D for me (and any other european who went to bed at ~3 am)? Especially interested in how MRN did. Must-watch games?

Every game has a loser and a winner
This series is so much more forgiving to losers than any other tourney anyway
Don't qualify? Try again in 2.5 months

I wouldn't worry so much about the amateur teams. Curse is really the only team that should make you feel super sad if they don't make it since they've been a team forever now and came to close to qualifying at regionals.

Man watching MRN vs C9 now and really impressed with Megazero. The sigma surrounding NA top laners not knowing how to play from behind doesn't seem to be quite true.

Watch the games and make an arguement to disagree. Dunno if Hai included themselves, but the level of many of the games i've watched is accurately described with "Tier 3"

Just finished watching C9 vs MRN, yeah, baserace against a defending Anivia, good luck....

Well obviously if you consider top 4 to be tier 1 and then teams like GGU, Fear tier 2, then obvioulsly most of the teams there tier 3, thats not the point though. From what I got from ClackeyD's interview Hai meant it in a condescending way obviously and it's always good to see trashtalk players fall. I didn't even consider them to be much better than the rest of the teams, only Nien is an outstanding player from C9.

Guess most did have the do or die approach.

Thus marks the end of Ex-Orbit, Redditnation, Ex-quantic, Nom-Nom, and finally cloud 9. It was a great experience and i will miss playing
