No. Also they can feel fine anyway, because they're in ro8 already and have time to process what's happening. They may not feel amazing, but I'm sure seeing the losses didn't make their whole team go into depression because they're worse and will OBVIOUSLY get crushed now. Also OMG is really good and that loss, while certainly an upset, isn't nearly on the level of the Ozone one. | ||

I'm a bit concerned, but not that worried. let's save judgment for after we get a larger sample size. who knows, maybe the koreans are just jetlagged, underestimated opponents, just had a bad day, etc. Or in a delusional deluge of denial... + Show Spoiler + TSMVULC9GO! | ||

What if poor performance at LoL results in masses of disillusioned and irate Koreans turning away from League and returning to Starcraft (2), thus restoring the glory days of Starcraft esports in Korea? Could this be what we've been hoping for all along? plz, no true esports fans like sc2 :p | ||

I imagine it will be the other way around. They have ben doubted from the very start while SKT and Ozone have been praised to the heavens. They will be even more focused to prove everyone wrong. Najin is underrated I feel like anyways because they had a poor season in OGN with a new roster. With the extra time to practice I think they will be beastly personally. | ||

I will never, ever trust anyone that talks about scrim results. "Oh yeah we beat C9 all the time in Scrims" - Anyone on TSM. We saw how that worked out. Sword are good though. They might not have come in with SKT level hype but its not like they are some chump team that qualified through the international wildcard | ||

I feel like ozone and SKT T1 would have destroyed those teams a lot harder. They need to pull their shit together as a team and use their full potential but if they have surprise picks maybe they can catch people off guard. Btw are any quarterfinal teams in the US? I wonder who the other teams are scrimming. | ||

I don't believe them to be favorites for the tournament all of a sudden but to say they will get dumpstered by any team is pretty ludicrous. | ||

Would expect some pretty major changes if that happened because Samsung would rightfully be pissed. More people would be disappointed than pleased. Dead serious. Imp, Mata, and Dandy won't keep underperforming. Imp is definitely in contention for best ADC in the world and Mata is one of the most talented players in the scene. He's held #1 on KR solo queue ladder playing different roles and successfully transferred his skills to another role. There's a reason why people consider him as good as Madlife. Dandy entering this tournament was pretty much considered best jungler in Korea and it's hard to argue with that. I do expect them to recruit a new mid player though. Dade is as big of a weakness as Homme. | ||
