I think he might get replaced if they don't make it to world's.

Surely Uzi would want to take a shot at this NA advanture.

I think we should not get overboard with this. As far as we know they dont want to be Americans but NA LCS players.

The fact that they're using a translator rather than making an effort to give interviews in English after being in the states for almost 9 months seems to support this idea.

Nobody in China should be happy with the state of any of their teams, period.

EDG's still not a very good team. They just happen to be less trash than the rest of China right now.

Man so about the pregame vasilii tears in that video, does he know something we don't ? he said i only wish we could play together one more time...does it mean he knows that lmq will either get pulled from LCS or will ownership change team members after worlds is over ? Gets me kind of sad thinking about it

Phreak probably offered him money to do that just so he could make that retarded tear joke.

In their defense, Vasili made tremendous effort in building the LMQ brand. He basically MADE the LOMO franchise. While its creation was somewhat accidental, it happened while he was streaming (essentiall for his fans for free).

It's just that NoName/Ackerman/Mor don't give a shit.

The biggest issue with it is still not the players, it's the fact that a (kinda shady) Chinese organization is able to just step in and run everything from outside the states.

Granted, I know other organizations do this (Dig, for example), but when a Chinese organization sends Chinese players to the US, it worries me a little about the possibility of a future where the NA LCS is made up entirely of 2nd-tier Korean or Chinese teams.

More complicated than that to be sure. But you never know.

Afaik, you don't need to worry about another team coming to NA. LMQ went to NA just simply because ex-boss of Royal want to show how great he is and he is much powerful than the boss of OMGPE.
And the one want to leave is Ackerman because Sharon or LMQ refuse his girlfriend come to US, he wanted to go back. So I think what VASILLI means is this

I'm pretty sure Riot would close the door once abuse like this happens.

I somehow learn that by knowing some people and some experience in Chinese scene. I don't think any teams (at least for CN) want to come to US since no incentives for them. LMQ case is simply because of the boss who always want to be the first and now bankrupt.
I am curious about who will replace Ackerman when he leave. I am not going to say 100% he is leaving, but at least 80%. According to LMQ members(privately), he has expressed multiple times.

Super strong maybe in soloQ but not in competitive, so easy to drop a pink in a teamfight or oracle lens and shes done

I suddenly have a perverse desire to see SHRC qualify and then have a teamkill match against LMQ alongside the Samsung Blue-White.
