that's never going to happen. You'd be better off always competing in the same league.

Well all this will be cleared up at Worlds, though I'm guessing that SKT T1 K won't be there unless they manage to get more points. I'm totally blanking on the format this year. How many teams does each region get to send?

SKT T1 still has a good chance of making it to Worlds because they won OGN Winter.That's assuming they're going by Circuit points again.

If SKTT1K make the Semis they will be top 2 in circuit points guaranteed. If not, it depends on Blue/NJWS's placing + Ozone's placing. They are already locked into getting into the playoff for the 3rd spot, at worst.

Korea only got good because they wanted to be good much more badly than their NA/EU counterparts.

Established infrastructure and culture counts for a lot.

And why do they have this infrastructure and culture that westerners do not have ? I think it's because they are passionate and want to be the best at what they do, which is what they above mentioned. In general,westerners don't care enough for video games (relative to having a "real" life outside of games)

The western pro teams certain still care about LoL and have at least a skeleton of team structure. Its just that as long as you can stay in the LCS, being entertaining > being good in NA in terms of income and popularity.
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

Maybe I'm naive, but I truly believe that at least TSM, CLG and C9 are actually made of people that want to compete and be on the same level as CN and KR, or at least TSM's and CLG's roster changes would suggest so.
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

TSM and CLG roster changes are because they want to be beat C9. I can see C9 as being a team that wants to be #1 in the world, they were the first team to actually get a coaching/analyst I believe, but TSM/CLG's ambition doesn't seem to go beyond winning in NA.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

What makes you say that? What evidence is there of that? I think it's so stupid to question the ambition of players in LCS, especially teams that are viable for worlds like C9, TSM, and CLG.

CLG still want to keep nien despite his bad perfomances and no improvements in the past 2 splits. Same with tsm with theoddone/dyrus

If the NA teams wanted to win, they would play on the korea servers with bad ping. They don't, because if they suck, they won't have any excuses for why the lose.
