personally i think tl had some odd item choices :/
also i think every game xpecial sold his gold item to get an early locket / agies. he always seemed to just get really behind lust boy.

You do realize this is the 1st time CLG has made any sort of final since before LCS right?

They were literally in IEM final last year.


I don't think it counts if all you need to do to make the finals is win one Bo3 against Roccat.

Well at least we still got a decent shot for Worlds, but I gotta root for TSM to win. Ughhh feels so dirty.


it's opposite, root for clg so we can go through straight by points.

if clg win tsm go through with point

literally casters said tsm are guaranteed a place at worlds


wait you're right.
but then that's actually hilarious because TL by losing, arguably has an 'easier' road to worlds.

had they won, they would need to beat CLG in finals to guarantee auto qualify unless TSM beat TIP in 4th/3rd place.
since they lost, they just need TSM to win and they need to beat TIP.

option 2 seems easier, no?

dont think there is a difference in the difficulty tbh.Also losing confidence from losing etc is annoying

Sorry, finals with any sort of relevant teams
Just looked through the teams of Cologne and it was as ugly as I remembered


> Implying that TSM won any gold since before LCS with any relevant teams in league.

Anyway, cya TSM fans in finals <:

You're right winning tournaments with those shitty CLG.EU teams in season 2 was really easy
And you forgot IEM Katowice this year where TSM only had to contend with 3 other teams that will, or at worst have a good shot, at attending Worlds

So assuming TL wins the 3rd/4th place match they'll be the final boss in the NA gauntlet, right?

I mean, ideally speaking CLG wins finals, TSM qualifies via points, and TL win the gauntlet.

Also, what was that thing at the end, Riot showing off a new champion or new skin? It flashed Project, so...

I think the most disappointing part is that a hot TL playing up to their potential was our only shot at NA having an elite team. TSM and CLGs weak points are too abuseable against international teams. Instead we get the same questionable pick and ban and great players choking hard from TL that has been plaguing them for God knows how long

Dunno if I buy that a hot liquid is na's best hope. When tsm was hot last season, that was probably the best an NA team has been relative to international teams since S2. I also think the way clg played last week was seriously solid.

at this point worlds could become more of a trauma then practise for TL.

The only LCS team that could get a decent showing at Worlds is Fnatic anyways. Hell if Fnatic somehow land in a nightmare group with SKT and EDG even they won't be able to do anything.


SKT is almost guaranteed 1st seed I think. So I think the worst case scenario is Fnatics with EDG and KTB/KOO


That is still a very bad worst case scenario.

Yeah KT would crush us no doubt and we'd have a slim shot vs Koo


I can totally see it happen too.

CLG could be good if xmithie plays low mechanical junglers, but caughtturtle has been a liability against elite teams for so long, it's actually hard to believe a player could struggle with something his entire career

Let's be honest here: as things stand, all of the NA teams would be lucky to get out of group stage at Worlds.

Turtle and Santorin on TSM are so weak/abusable it's not even funny, TL obviously has some draft and teamfight issues, CLG is so boom/bust because Xmithie is probably the weakest jungler in NA right now, TIP without XWX is a shadow of it's spring split form, Gravity collapsed under pressure, Dig is dig, and C9 is still rebuilding.

Hahahahahahaha you think that how teams look in their LCS has any correlation with how they perform at worlds.

I can still remember last year when Alliance finally gave Fnatic their first playoff series loss in the LCS and people talked about how great Froggen was, and how he was the only western player that was Korean level.

Or heck two years ago when C9 was NA's great hope. That story had a happy ending too.

Eh they might be able to beat h2k and origen and the taiwanese teams. I bet 1 team from NA will make it to quarters
