EDIT: I really hope tiebreakers won't be decided by time-ratings. On one hand it makes for interesting 'against the clock' matches (which happened once or twice in DotA2, can't rmbr which team) and punishes the refuse-to-win syndrome that seems to be plaguing this group. On the other hand it's really shitty, and league of legends as played on summoner's rift wasn't designed to be a time-gated game (as opposed to say, CS:GO). | ||

Hell SHRC loos like best CN team(Well aside from LMQ) at this event which is pretty sad. Hopefully bracket play is better. Honestly China has been pretty mediocre, EDG are the best but are absurdly abusable as evidenced by AHQ and SSW abusing the fuck out of their early game. OMG have been strugglers since dada replaced cloud and they took on a former iG coach, YG has an awful ADC but may be something good next split. WE.A just failed best not to think about it and iG still iG. World Elite is currently rebuilding with their last two legends retiring and LGD did have promise but they haven't refined their mid game enough and their top/jungle are completely worthless (Unless jungle gets lee, then he's pretty good). I had hoped that the games where starhorn and YG just abused their early game were blips but looking at worlds it seems less so. Oh and starhorn is just a stupid team, they rely on going HAM then crying to zero to bail them which I guess worked so far? | ||

Some bug involving Khazix's homeguards not being cancelled by kogmaw's auto during the last moments of the former's recall. Which is important because that brief moment of homeguard regen allowed Khazix to regen faster = come out of fountain faster = kill Rumblr faster = Nexus saved. There's debate over what is actually considered as 'entering combat', among other things. Two posts regarding it hit the frontpage alr, possibly more to follow. I'm just popcorning because Riot + bugs + competitive = mess. lol. Edit: more details. On September 27 2014 23:36 Numy wrote: They mentioned on stream how it will happen. They will play a round robin tie breaker. If it's still no winner after that they will do a single elim bracket with the team with with time rating getting a bye in first rounds. It's not the best but I think it's a good compromise. Any mention if it's all gonna be right after the reg. group matches are played or are scheduling it on another day? | ||

It's bullshit, this "bug" has been around for a fucking long time, everyone knew it and it's only now that their favorite team are going to lose in groupstage that they're trying to find anything they can to save them. Such a pity Sad thing is that it's going to serve as another excuse with the "that was the hardest group" to explain while FNC lost in groupstage. Hardcore fans are fucking annoying omg | ||

If OMQ wins against LMQ, Fnatic are done, even if they go 2-0 vs Samsung team. For C9. C9 > Kabum C9 > Shield [A] > Kabum All three teams at 4-2, tiebreakers happen. Or. C9 > Shield C9 > Kabum [A] < Kabum Highly unlikely, though C9 and Shield are through with C9 playing tiebreakers with Shield for 1st spot. | ||
