right now frost is barely a top 10 team by personnel, and their coaching staff is literally doing nothing both personnel wise and game strategy wise. the way other teams have adapted to s4 changes completely passed them by it seems.

this is more than enough to call frost shit

With how falcons with rynder looks 40 times better, KTA is recovering and hopefully IM #2 and NJBS won't get a group with SSB and KTB I see CJ frost not even getting out of groups next season.

Man I remember when GBM showed some promise, then he just never expanded his pool beyond zed/ori and now he looks even mediocre on these two. CJ should seriously contemplate looking into yolo queue now, or pull an atn and #FreeApdo.

I was rooting for GBM to do well but I don't think this was what he needed to do to stay on the team.

picking blitzcrank game 3 with vs. what was already on the board was basically "well we don't have anymore ideas" as soon as they picked it I knew they were broken even with madlife being as good as he is nidalee and Ezreal aren't going to be scared of that.

What I learned from today :

- Dade needs a haircut
- Even godlife's god hand can't carry frost
- It must feel weird to be one if not the best toplaner in the world and to be on a losing team

I think game 1 was an excellent game in the strategical sense.

picking Kha'zix (game 1) with an obvious fast push comp on the board was pretty greedy, jungle kha'zix needs time to grow to contribute, I honestly feel like it was a champ select loss, not because the champions they picked being bad (which might be why this isn't being said as much) but because their draft was very greedy in the face of what was on the board.

Does it? Just as you I'd love to see SKT take it again although their win record (and Faker's performance) tells us more than enough about LoL either way, even if they got knocked out by KTB now. Still rooting for them.

There certainly is something to said about their consistency. They've proven that although the game is ever changing to be a true top team you need to adjust to the meta and play accordingly. A repeat win would cement them as arguably the most dominate team of all time (otherwise I assume it would be the old Azubu Frost but even they had their ups and downs.)

faker's boys have displayed a skill level above that of all other teams ever. should appreciate that for a bit.

every post like "but tpa did this dumb shit so we'll see!" makes me facepalm. the 2nd generation korean teams represent the highest potential league has as a competitive game

Also I think nobody would argue against it if you said that the League scene today, especially in Korea, is much more competitive than it has ever been, especially way back in S2. Which makes it even more impressive what SKT have done. Thorin called it "one of the best storylines in esports history, nevermind just LoL in 2013", which seems understandable.

IMO, the biggest problem with the SCII scene (when I still followed it) was the seeming inability of any player to dominate (except, maybe MC for a while). It made it feel like results were too random and that tournaments were not totally determined by the skill of the players, but by a serious "luck" factor within the game.

Edit. And TPA + Frost not even making it back was a black eye, in my mind at least.

Oh I actually agree with that. I still like SC2 a lot and I often feel dickish when I say that, but it was somewhat surprising that with the impact of KeSPA teams we haven't seen someone consistently dominate at the highest level (so mainly in Korea), when at the same time it can be argued that the overall level of competition is lesser than in BW simply due to the weakened infrastructure SC2 has to work with. Back in WoL we had guys like MVP and MC, in HotS Bogus looked like the next bonjwa before he fell off pretty rapidly, but we've not seen a consistent god of SC2 in a long time, which in my opinion would help out SC2 quite a bit, especially if it happened to be someone already popular. It's a bit regrettable.

Oh, somewhat ironically Jeadong comes close in levels of consistency, but only as a silver surfer in foreign tournaments.

... but to come back to the original point. Even though SC2 is missing that I don't think it lacks legitimacy as a competitive game in the eyes of most people, except to some of the old BW folks (and a part of the Korean audience? SC2 had to take a lot of criticism from Korean SC1 fans).
