Just wait until next year. There is a very high likelihood that it will be held in Korea. It's about time, and I'm sure the turnout will be incredible/justifiable for Riot to do it.

It seems like I may have confused you/ other people with my separation of group A and B. I separated group A and B out of consistency. Day 1 has both groups playing, Day 2->5 are alternating group play, and day 6 is same as day 1 with both groups playing.
Not too sure why I did it this way aside from making it look a tiny bit more clean than if I didn't separate.

Nothing is impossible!

So the matches are best of two so its twenty game guaranteed?

Not sure what you are asking. These are group stages, so each team in the group plays another team twice. Once on purple, and once on blue side. Repeat until all teams in their respective group have played each other. Top two from each group go on to quarterfinals.
In total, that is 40 matches.

Not sure why players like Doublelift, Nien, and Zionspartan are at the analyst desk. They don't really give the deepest insight into the game compared to say SaintVicious, Scarra, etc.

Doubelift is a huge star and will be someone the NA/EU fans want to hear his thoughts about.
The other two? I dunno.

Outside of monte they don't really have anyone who can give deeper insight into the game.

3 am? Dang. 5 am is great. Well, I'll be watching every game nonetheless. Hoping for some wicked sick games and GMB victories. It's a long shot against Ozone, but there's always hope.

Remember that they're trying to market their game to the public too. And public response better to good looking people. Dlift/Nien/Voyboy/Snoopeh/Krepo/Ocelote: All these guys are considered good/decent looking by normal standards. They all can hold intelligible conversations and not embarrass themselves in front of a million. In short, they're all marketable. Deficio: dunno much bout him, heard he's quite good looking though. Zion: not sure why he's here tbh, I've actually never even heard him speak + his team is in relegation. scarra: (i don't hate him at all btw) Isn't what you would call a good looking young man by today's standards, sadly. Even though Riot might invite him anyways to please the community.

Honestly I think I'd be fine if they just had Doublelift, Krepo, and ocelote at the analyst desk. I don't care about "in-depth analyses from the pros," I just genuinely like those three dudes and think the three of them could put on a fairly entertaining post-match show.

TSM TSM TSM! Looking for at least 1-1 while hoping to 2-0 on Sunday. Football or League, such a hard choice!
C'mon birds, shut down the Chargers quick so I can turn it off.

Not to say he's completely wrong, but when most people regard Meteos as an MVP who has extremely efficient ganks, saying he's only good because of his laners seems to be a bit extreme.

Maybe he didn't want to do it. Only explanation I can think of

Now that makes no sense. Scarra is like the best at it why is Zion there instead of him wtf.

Besides, we already have monte which is enough indepth analysis. Not everyone is a Monte fan. I prefer almost any player over him.
