GE lost a lot more than WE won.

The 3rd game was great, but GE looked tilted as hell after they tried to style G2 and got shit on. G1 Tigers and G3 Tigers is a totally different mindset.

Mindset's a big deal and is GE's big flaw, but still. I think people are looking at this as a lot bigger than it actually is.


it's 12th place LPL beating 1st place LCK.

Think to last year, there's no way in fuck last place LPL would have beaten SS Blue/White

Korea faltering has opened a window of opportunity for western teams. That said, I doubt the results of this tournament are much impressing the top LPL teams

I like how the two reigning opinions are either that beating GE is super-amazing super saiyan thing, or it means nothing, a mediocore feat to pull.

Still, this is why I like the LoL community, absolutely entertaining how people are not willing to accept some things.

yeah, one of them actually fought real fights in the UFC, and went back to WWE to recover from his surgery.

cena is a fucking panzy in comparison

I mean comparing UFC to WWE is just silly because one is real and one isn't lol. John Cena is actually a pretty cool dude though and has fulfilled more Make-a-Wish visits than anyone else (over 400)

It's one tournament. Let's see what happens MSI/Worlds before jumping on the LPL bandwagon.

it's a mediocre feat when there are 11 official teams better than WE in a single region.

IDK about the video delivery infrastructure, but I'd assume they use different networks/servers/etc., so it probably just isn't connecting. Connecting to Chinese internet is always sketch and random.

I wonder if that's what Caomei was doing last night, cause he was also around 450k viewers, but they stuck around for more than an hour after IEM stopped streaming. Unless Chinese streamers get half a million viewers normally. In which case, I need to reevaluate my career.
I'm currently on an indefinite hiatus from TL =(

TBH the most hilarious thing about LPL is how consistently awful all the games look, and then how consistently not-awful the Chinese teams do when they actually go to international tournaments.

Like literally both of the last two years, people have watched the Worlds qualifier and gone "how the fuck are any of these teams going to be remotely competitive at Worlds?"
