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 | ||

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... | ||

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. | ||

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 | ||

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. | ||

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. On August 17 2015 09:03 Sufficiency wrote: No NA will will get out of world's, luck or no luck...

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 | ||
