I actually don't think SKT's teamfighting is that good. Or well, not the absolute best anyway, especially if faker is on a champion like ahri. I think the best thing royal can do is try to play their style by going even in lane and just transitioning into team fights over objectives. If it's just team fights royal can definitely win.

I think the game is going to be decided on whether Piglet/Pooh perform better than Yellowstar/Puzu. The fact that botlane kept getting crapped on in that series really ensured that fnatic couldn't be aggressive anywhere, but if Bengi can be aggro, I trust that he and Faker can make plays.

I agree. If SKT lose it's gonna be on poohmandu 100% and whether or not he ends up feeding. I don't think Piglet will get outfarmed but giving up 1-2 kills to Uzi would be devastating.

Tabe confirms SKT and Royal scrimmed two days straight. 23 games. SKT won 20 of those 23.

80/90% SKT favorites in Tabe's honest opinion.

They also lost to TSM a lot so not sure how we should feel about that lol.... Also their most critical player is apparently not trying his best in these scrims. I really don't think Royal will lose as easily as they lost in scrims. Real games with experienced teams always tend to be a lot closer than scrim games. Pressure can change things in a lot of ways.

Not sure how I would feel with Royal winning. It's guaranteed they will not be keeping the same players and I highly doubt they'll ever be as good as they are in this tournament. It's just another TPA story waiting to happen. Big showing for a short period of time and then disappearing and not being able to maintain their S3 image.

So Royal players make $1,000 USD a month. Chinese commentators make tons more through having their own Chinese Amazon shops and selling food, clothes, and gaming apparel; apparently making over six figures a year through that shop alone. With this being the way it is in China, Tabe is retiring after the World Finals.

Also add in the fact that the leagues don't let the players sell any of their own products even if they wanted to. What a load of bullshit.

I might be in the minority here but I think we legitimately have the best 2 teams in the grand final and they both have deserved their way here.



I think Royal prepped hard against OMG but I think OMG is overall the stronger team. I think the two best is SKT/OMG followed by NJS/Royal. Royal didn't look that prepared against Fnatic tbh, they even said in the interview that they were mostly preparing for the SKT match instead. (Uzi specifically insinuated this with Tabe during the Travis interview). They definitely did not look on form that day and I highly doubted they would've taken the OMG series if they played the way they did against fnatic.

I'm not entirely too sure how you can say OMG is overall the stronger team when Royal has beaten them consistently in the last few weeks. OMG are 0-5 against Royal currently. Royal shut out OMG in the regionals 3-0, and then did it again in the quarter final stage with a 2-0. To me, it seems that Royal knows what to do against OMG, and they do it well. I'm not sure how they can be called "the weaker" team when they are able to pull such a thing off.

OMG has dominated the chiense league for most of the year. they are arguably superior on 3 positions and have a 'cleaner' style of play. but they do suck in best of n series

As long as they can win the first three games it doesn't matter if they lose the next 20 lol
