Riot will probably start opening up and running more international tourneys now that LCS is "established" per se, and Coke Zero Challenger League will be a large boon for the amateur scene (if TL ever ends up writing about it, I'd volunteer to help with that specifically).
Also loud criticisms of the lack of international tourneys.
I hope so, i also hope the involve other reagions and not just NA/EU.

Hoping for moarrrrrr, though.
Want to see how Brazil's doing in English language commentary/competition.

Cyanide has some games where he goes full beast mode but he has really shitty games as well.
I still think fnatic is the most incosistent team in league.
Gambit is sometimes inconsistent too, remember they lose to curse with RHUX as SUB.

By the way, does anyone know if Coke League teams are allowed to compete in other tournaments? Like EPS and so on

idk man there were a few plays where he showed exceptional game sense and mechanics, the fight where he traded 1 for 1 in game 2 when balls got caught, and the fight where they went 2 for 0 when balls threw down the ult, i think khazix is one of his mains but still he played much better than i expected both games. NA has a lot of good mids in LCS now though, Hai wasn't a mid main to begin with so we'll see how he does vs. godbelter.

Details haven't really been released yet I don't think, we don't even know how amateurs are going to qualify for it or basic tourney structure.
But probably yes. Not LCS.

Oh, they wanted to prevent another AP Kog domination game. Zamphira that game was true terror.

So anyone know what's up with the Karthus and Kog bans? I didn't watch/follow NACL so I dunno anything bout Cog.

Not to be to weird but his play reminds me greatly of LD last season. Focus heavily on assassins and getting that lead early on by roaming and Jungle support.

Fixed.
This mid lane Voyboy actually has me really worried. Hopefully their new lineup works out, they were the first team I followed and I want them to do well again.

Target bans on Zamphira. He's pretty much COG's key to victory.

Basically specific to Cog.
AP Kog and Karthus games from Zamphira were pretty oppressive, and he's their obi-wan.
