I saw a video where they basically said NA vs EU just fight for the bronze now. Basically they've given up even trying. Also the B-team of KT went undefeated against all of EU at IEM. Didn't even drop a map. At least Dimaga and Yugioh could take out Flash. | ||

He will subsequently become extremely hyped for the next 6 months until he is discovered to be merely "great" by Korean standards. Sounds exactly like Faker to me Could have cleared that up earlier with LR, not many of us play LoL. | ||
