Before 5 gamechanging patches more? Probably, we won't see neither Alliance, Fnatic or SKT T1 K in Worlds, it doesn't mean that they're bad. This so much. There is no international competition in LoL. Riot shut that down. So pointless to talk about that stuff. Well IEM is allowed to do that, but it's still divided between East/West.

Froggen is overrated Wickd is a bit overrated Shook is strangely overrated (not sure why? o.o), Nyph is really beast as far as I know but he didn't really deliver this game. I don't see Alliance having the potential to be the strongest team.

We'll see what happens with the team going forward. Honestly, this split really means jack shit, and getting hot in the later of the year/right around world's is much more important in trying to win World's. For example, had World's been in the spring, Ozone would've probably been the world champions. Anything and everything can change in a few months. Everyone needs to chill the f*ck out. China is still playing tournaments on the S3 patch and people are talking about Worlds lol
If anything it just shows how much people want international competition. Worlds wasn't enough to satisfy that thirst ;(

agreed there Alliance surely has good individual players but they are not like top 1-5 in europe and they need to get used to play with each other, so its possible if they work together but I dont think they have an advantage over other new lcs teams

IEM is basically based on invites so it's not best kind of competition, let's be honest.

I think I will rather believe those.

Not the best, but always fun.
I agree, Froggen's been overrated since karthus/anivia fell out of flavor. We'll see as the season goes on.

I never understood the point of power rankings, it's just meaningless subjective drivel. If you want to rank anything come up with an algorithm damn it.

Well power rankings in BW used to be pretty cool since there was a lot of data there to actually get something meaningful. These pre-season rankings are rather meaningless since there's almost zero games between the teams.

I dont know it maybe they will be top 3. I just dont think they are stronger than most of the established teams likes fnatic/gambit and im not sure if they are stronger than cw/roccat or other "darkhorses"

Froggen is still top-3 midlane in Europe, just not top-1 for sure like it was in S2. In Europe, where to survive you need to have world class midlaner, it's basically very decent.
And he's still stepping up hard in playoffs, so hard that sometimes you wonder why can't he play everytime like that.

Typical shortsighted players here, losing one game doesnt mean shit, I mean omg will 1 game vs skt and suddenly they are high rated. Weeks ago they china sucks and is worser then NA.
I just fucking hate how everyone always count last game= 12 months perfomance each fucking time god is so annoying.
