to be honest, getting 2nd is probably better long-term if you're confident in making out of groups.

If you get directly into Ro8, you get a week off, don't get to test yourself against the other regions, and then get thrown into a Bo3 against more than likely SKT/Ozone/Royal-OMG/Fnatic-Gambit-TSM-Vulcun.

On the other hand, if you go through groups, you get Sword, the Bears, Cloud 9, or the other Chinese team. The added experience of playing those 8 games against the rest of the world and then an "easier" draw in the quarterfinals could be beneficial.

Last season the teams with byes to the quarters didn't seem to be off at all, and they were scrimming eachother before their official matches. But this year, out of the 4 teams with byes only Sword has any international experience so that may be an issue.


I've actually heard some rumours about practice sessions last year. Like there was hardly any privacy available, so in order to minimize strategy leaks, teams actually refrained from scrimming one another, except for Invictus Gaming, who were very confident going into the tournament. I hoping (but not expecting) Riot to improve on this situation, and allow teams to go into the tournament being able to showcase their full potential.

I'm guessing the Korean teams will partner one another, like Azubu Frost and Najin Sword did last year. Teams who have less representation from their region, such as Gamania Bears might struggle to get any practice partners.

If that's the case I wouldn't be too surprised if SKT and Ozone were to practice with each other. SKT T1 sent them to World's after all. I don't think SKT will be practicing against international teams considering Impact said they thought they would be more comfortable with their opponents not knowing their style.

SKT also practices with NaJin Sword and sent Sword to worlds. Honestly, I expect the Korean teams to help each other up until the point where they might face each other. dat Korean national pride.
