But whatever, i guess there is no way we will ever know if it was collusion. Stop spouting bullshit as if you know it is fact. This is a chance these teams have been working towards for months(and years for some of these players). You think Deft crying and Blue's despondent faces were all just superior acting? I despise the fact that the first reaction from people for out of meta picks is "collusion". If those picks had worked, these same people would be praising them about how they went "out of the meta" and made it work. Instead, you saw that White were ready for any picks because Looper is really amazing, and doesn't lose his lane ever. In fact, he specifically had Akali prepared for the Kayle pick, which people were starting to use more in Worlds. Blue lost due to more than just pick and ban stage. | ||

Really hoping that OMG somehow makes the finals competitive in some shape or form x_x If SHRC wins the SHRC-OMG semis we'll be in for another stompy 3:0 finals for sure. I have no faith in SHRC, SHRC this year is the same as RoyalClub last year. Changed a competent Mid+top for a uncompetitive Mid+top in return for a competitive Supp+Jungle to replace the weight that was Lucky (and to an extent Tabe) At least with OMG I can still summon some silver of unrealistic hope >_> | ||

Panic? Desperation? If you were going to collude, you wouldn't make it a massive one-sided Bo5 where you have a 7k deficit at 20minutes every game and lose massively in sub-30mins. You would let it go later and throw a fight late game that gives the other team baron or something. | ||

Sister teams duking it out with questionable team comps is not solid proof to say guilty but enough to be suspicious. I am not saying they are guilty but am suspicious. Without even having to consider what took place in-game, the question remains: what do they gain by colluding? Is it somehow true that the only team that has a chance in the finals is SSW? Of course that's not true. Either SSW or SSB could easily stomp the finals, so why would they collude to try to pass SSW into the finals? Also, unless you're also assuming that they're splitting all the prize money, then why would SSB agree to take far less prize money and lose a chance at the grand prize just to send their sister team to the finals? You don't have to see the games or comps to realize it's utterly ridiculous to suggest collusion. There's absolutely no reason for them to do it. ---- On topic: If SHRC can 3-0 OMG tomorrow, then the TSM fans will rise triumphant from the ashes like the phoenix. I pray for this outcome in the name of based Crumbledore the Prophet. | ||

I just have never ever witnessed such a one-sided series between what was perceived as two of the very best teams in the world. I mean am I the only one who thought that that was not the SSB that we all know as? And im sure im not the only one who was baffled by the akali and galio pick, along with a mejais on tf. And yet you are the only one throwing around the single most damaging accusation you can in sport with 0 evidence. | ||

Do you not realize how disrespectful it is to the teams involved to accuse them of any sort of collusion? This shouldn't even be a discussion without concrete evidence Mejai on TF was desperation move, he was hoping to snowball enough to carry What's wrong with trying out pocket strats that I am certain they have practiced and theory crafted Also you are ignoring everyone's reasoning why collusion is not even possible They is no REASON for it What is Blue to gain from losing? Without that concrete evidence this shouldn't even be discussed Just like the time people were accusing of match fixing during the group stages | ||

I'm sorry if you are offended by it, i didn't expect anyone to get angry about it. Although now that i think about the past, i guess i can understand why it is a sensitive topic. | ||
