What a depressing tournament for the West lol, hope next year is better. It's not even the scoreline, the quality of the team's is just so bad this time. We need G2 back. | ||

Unless I'm mistaken neither Aria, Gaeng or Steal are Japanese nor have any played competitively in Korea. Which was his point. There's an enormous difference between NA importing Alphari, Huni, Ssumday, CoreJJ, etc and LJL teams finding literal who's on the Korean ladder and signing them. One is the right way to scout talent and foster growth and success and the other is not | ||

One is the right way to scout talent and foster growth and success and the other is not And the org having regular access to Korean soloq is impactful in the ability to do so. Japanese orgs have the benefit of scouting their native players and potential imports in the same ecosystem while NA orgs don't. Granted, I don't know the who's who of the English speaking world in League, but what talent scouts are there that can speak fluently with an org that has the finger on the pulse of Korean soloq outside of somebody like LS(as questionable as he can be)? | ||

If you don't have someone with access you hire someone. They're multimillion dollar organizations, hire a team whos literal job it is to watch solo Q/academy/amateur leagues/EUM year round. You could skip the entire 'fresh' (from soloQ) scouting process and just exclusively go to the academy and amateur leagues and find already scouted talents and watch them yourself as an org. Hell the super easy way is you just watch LDL from this year and take any player in the league, 99% chance they got axed from their org because of Chinese law. | ||

There used to be an organisation whose entire role was to pick up SoloQ talent, put them in a team house and liaise their meetings with Western organisations. No idea if that org still exists but I'm told the conditions were uhhhh not very good. | ||

Imo this C9 win was better quality than the first match RGE won. Hoping this group can at least eek out one closish game, maybe FPX vs C9? | ||
