ex-M5, SK, and ex-CLG.eu have all qualified for EU LCS already. Stop asking where they are.

Yes it sucks at the moment and there will be more controversial bans of this kind. But if Riot is serious about this, they don't have a choice. Sure they might be blamed for bad timing, but the community will rip them apart if they show any signs of inconsistency.
On that note, I think it was a mistake to make the standard ban for offensive language a one year ban. It's too harsh and set a precedent they have to stick to now. Pro's will slip up and this might become a continuous hassle for teams as well as Riot in the future. They also need to make clear, that any kind of intentional harassment/baiting of pro-players in SoloQ is a ban worthy offense. Otherwise people will make a game out of trying to get pros banned by pissing them off. The guys who got banned haven't "slipped up" just a few times though.Like if a pro player actually gets banned you know he does it ALMOST every game and I'm pretty sure everyone at high elo thinks it's deserved lol. About the baiting-just wanna throw it out there,but there is an ignore button and you can just not click enter and type.If your dream is to be pro is it too much to just stfu so you don't lose it for the dumbest of all reasons?
also disabling all chat helps :p
Offensive language usually goes quite a bit farther than just some insult like "noob". Frankly I've seen people flame in such a way that they'd get up to a year in prison if they did in IRL in Austria (insults like: "damn jews we should have killed you all" etc.).

The "slip up" referred to the story about Froggen and not the recent bans. And obviously these players didn't get baited into raging. My point about the baiting is just if Riot actually puts extra scrutiny on their pro players and expect them to show exemplary behavior, they should also be protected by Riot in some way.
PS: This refers to the players that will be in S3 once it starts. So I'm not talking about any players at the moment but about the future. Just to be clear.

MF looked like ED209 from Robocop that game.

Just realized how stacked most of the groups actually are, lots of known clans/teams unlike NA where it was mostly newly formed and unknown teams.
