I enjoy the unique aspect to it. I do wish Riot would also encourage teams to go to events like IEM though in the many ways they could. AllStars are okay. But not when they give fucking spot at Worlds just for lulz. They could give it to Korea anyway and all could be okay with it. But giving enormously important spot for region just because of "mix" who adapted to each other faster than other? It's kinda weird to say the least. Well I was responding to it being a "surrogate for real international competition". I can't say I really care too much about the reward though. It's really just the one team that doesn't do well doesn't get a top 8 placement, right? It just means that for whichever region does worst, the best team from that region has to make it out of groups. Meh. Riot said that this shit with bye rounds won't happen again. Thank God i hope it won't be like replays or Magma Chamber. #neverforget S1, S2 and S3 finals all had huge fuckups in terms of tournament format/running so I don't exactly trust Riot to not fuck it up. How was S3 a huge fuck up in that regard?
Tsm get the most difficult group, c9 no warm-ups

Caitlyn/Nid seige with Jax splitpushing... that sounds pretty scary.

International tournaments are whatever since it's just Asians smashing non-Asians.
Unless you get turned on by that kind of thing... Which can be common if you still run into people who still thinks NA/EU stands a chance versus Asian ppl

Last time they did this though Zion was splitpushing and 1v3ing while the rest of his team tried to kill themselves at baron.

Well actually SKT not being first was a problem with how the Korean league is. So many people talk about how good it is, but really it meant that the strongest team wasn't considered "first place" because results from 6+ months prior were still relevant with their system.
If that wasn't the case, then SKT wouldn't have been in groups.
As for C9 not getting warm ups, I didn't hear about that, but that's pretty shitty.

well...when you execute correctly - this is NA LCS after all (and not C9 or TSM)

Damn I was sure EG had that game.

OGN as a tournament has a great format, but the points for qualifying for Worlds is flawed
