TL 3-0'ing C9 would be the greatest gift they can give to CLG and their fans.

thats the most upset I've seen meteos

even more than that shitfest at IEM

Going 0-2 at IEM sucks but NA LCS has been their stomping ground. He has to hold himself to a higher standard than anything less than second place being a disaster. Like if TL died here, got reverse swept and rekt in third place match by impact people would still be positive. But if C9 loses here? Shit man that's a certified disaster even if they godstomp TiP/TSM in the 3rd place match.


Could it be that (finally) the competition in NA LCS has gotten strong enough so that C9's strengths (pick/ban, usually decent team comps) can't outweigh the team's weaknesses (Hai's champion pool, Lemon's low mechanical skill, Balls' apparent inability to do well on a non-carry top laner).


yeah it's pretty much this, their strategy is finally not enough to keep them near undefeated anymore since their mechanical deficits are causing losses.

Whelp. At least we have some insight into why CLG draft phase is absolutely terrible.

And? Most of us want C9 back to what they were and that can only happen if Hai either gets massively improved or leaves. Unless they want to be like CLG and live in the past while slowly fading to irrelevance.

their teamfighting was much worse than their p/b tho


Drafting is the foundation of the team though so if there's a problem in the draft it just makes every other problem you have get so much worse.

Saint's casting was pretty fun. Hope to see it again sometime.

I hope he moves into casting once he hangs it up as a player but I don't know if he really wants to do that. Could easily Scarra and become a coach or something or just stream full time

There's quite a few players that do a good job casting. I hope Riot ask them to cast more often!

Should rotate out the old pros like Jatt or whoever for analysis cause they say some dumb shit sometimes and update with more recent retirees

Like Riv or whoever is fine cause he understands he doesnt know the game at a high level and is there for the voice/screaming but your analysts should be able to, you know, analyze.

Like I said earlier in the thread C9's biggest advantage was understanding strategy and rotations better than anyone in NA but everyone else caught up;

yup

also he put up decent stats when they first came up he just didn't keep up with the rising talent level

Just 1 year ago, before his collapsed lung, Hai was in his best form of his career. They 3-0'd TSM in the finals with Hai dying ONCE in the series (he got like a 42 KDA in 3 games) and got the playoffs MVP. He was looking really good and then he got his collapsed lung and he never recovered his form. It's sad to me, because maybe if that didn't happen he would be in a much better spot atm.

Championship Points
  • 1st place team of the Summer Split will automatically qualify (AQ) for Worlds as the first seed from that region.
  • Team with the most Championship Points qualifies for Worlds
  • The team that has accrued the most championship points throughout the season will also qualify for Worlds as the second seed.
  • In the event that multiple teams are tied in the standings at the conclusion of the Summer Split, then the team that gained the most points in the Summer Split will be considered the holder of the tiebreaker.
  • The final spot for Worlds will be determined at the NA and EU Regional Qualifiers, the winners of which will be the third seeds of their respective regions.
