I really love how the KTB coach walks in after the win to congrats his team for a strong performance and then it pans to Fnatic and you see them just sobbing in their chairs. Where is their Coach/Manager giving them a pep talk and some feedback after the match ?

and you posting it for the 10th time this weekend doesn't make that fact any more valid either.


I hate reddit threads that saying c9/tsm/fnatic/gambit can beat top 8 korean teams LOL stop being delusional, maybe those 4 teams start to believe it thats why they doesnt even tryhard in lcs.

TSM could do pretty good in OGN imo, not top 4 or anything, but they'd hold their own really well.


If they would get out of the Group stage I'd be surprised. Imagine if they would be in Group A with KT Arrows, SKT K and S instead of Prime Optimus. You really think they'd ever reach RO16 ?

With the current state of things, I wouldn't put money on any team in Korea outside of Ozone getting out of that group if they get swapped with Prime.

What is TSM's record vs Koreans again? like, 0-16 or something?


Something like that, they have zero wins vs. Korean teams.

And usually are in a position to play a top tier Korean team.

Why does everyone believe that banning KhaZix would completely ban out InSec?

Insec without lee/kha isn't fantastic.

They can't play the current riot-approved meta since the version of LoL they play is several months of patches behind. This IEM also involved a pair of teams that aren't top4 in China.

I thought your higherups told you to stop posting this crap?

Pantheon is a weak pick i think. Aatrox got countered and vayne is going to go hard either way, hopefully freckles can do it

Interesting to see fnatic banning out the kassadin. Would have expected a lee ban last ban, then ktb either bans kassa or elise, and fnc picks the other one.

Kind of funny that Peke doesn't think his own kassadin is strong enough to first pick, but still doesn't want to give it to ryu.

I was told that LR threads have significantly higher tolerances for shitposting, and nothing I've posted even falls into that category to begin with

except the same old repeated song from you with riot approved meta.

Yes Korea. It's just like Starcraft, even the same teams that are good mostly.
