Time to watch LPL exclusively and give up on LCK. Damn I'm so happy for Spirit that things have turned around, he's worth every penny.

Another reason to love LPL: Iron Chef competitions.

I'm currently on an indefinite hiatus from TL =(

the amount of chinese nationalstic chauvinism unleashed by this victory has been tremendous. all those years of pent up frustration let loose like a biblical flood.

I really don't think so. There's still a long time between now and Worlds, expecting a Korean team to be the winner still seems fairly reasonable. SK Telecom T1 #2 played their first competitive game on like the 8th of March in season three and they won worlds. I guess we are in a more competitive era than season three, but Korea has a proven track record.

Samsung obviously going to be repeat world champions.

Btw huge respect for Joe Miller for sticking with us, even tho he could be casting cs major and everyone would suck his dick. Hope that Riot will try to get him to cast Worlds this year.

Joe/Monte/Deficio for final please.

China actually has a longer proven track record in MOBA games excellence. Think Dota and Dota2. I mean if GE Tigers is by far the best LCK team right now (and they are), it doesn't really bode well for the level of competition in KR now comparing to China. You could argue that GET underprepared/underestimated their opponent, but still...and it's not like WE actually prepared anything. They played it out like a Chinese challenger ranked game.

Whether or not and by how much can KR improve is a matter remains to be seen.

Dota/Dota 2 never was big in Korea if it was Korean teams would be the best.

even if you think this is a harbinger of doom for Korea, LCK is still worth watching because it's by far the best production and they have Monte and Doa.

Yes, if only for historic factor.
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.

samsung's badness is actually one of the signs of the impact of the talent drain. their 'soloqueue stars' are not stars but leftovers. the actual soloqueue stars like THE SHY went to china.
