The 3rd and 4th Place teams will receive the prize money and Circuit Points they have earned, and all other results stand. No 1st or 2nd Place will be awarded for this event.
We all saw that coming. I can't believe players are that childish sometimes.

Even TSM who are one of the more unprofessional teams on the LoL scene called that out.

Try playing the game and it won't be surprising. People are ridiculous on there.

The ceremony was on the Red stream. A real shame, I wanted to see Leenock and First after the match, not the casters... they said the ceremony would take place on the Red stream.
Still, they should have someone else than (whoever is the overhyping guy that does the interviews now), someone like InControl or Day9, they're so much better at interviewing - this guy just asks a question, but never follows-up on any of the answers, which is really poor. Just look at Dreamhack, it was so much less stale, here, 3 minutes after the final it was boring and I turned-off the stream. No analysis of the matches, no nothing! Why intant-replay analysis of pool-play matches, but not of finals (or semi-finals or whatever) matches.
Boring finals, but that's PvZ atm. Leenock vs. TheStC made 100% up for that, what an amazing series with such good games, that was really, really exciting!

The crowd shot that they showed had every seat taken. Not sure what the problem is.
