All this could mean a net loss of 20 points. *sigh* If we win the round it's not that bad. Also this means you get an extra day of looking at Zest, isn't that a net positive? | ||

The points table looked really close last year. The 10 points we lost today is a lot! If we had 2nd place, we would get an unprepared JinAir as first match which would be very winnable; and then a good shot against SKT because we are no exhausted nor exposed previously. But what do we get now? An extra match which we will win most surely, but we will have to prepare for. That means some exposed builds and no time to prepare for JinAir, but the worst part is that JinAir will be prepared that I think is our death sentence. I don't think we're gonna make it to the finals. This means 2 matches total, just as if we got 2nd place... so no extra day of looking at Zest. It's a net negative! | ||

Jin Air just got lucky they got SKT on the matchday SKT didn't give a shit anymore, otherwise they'd have been in 5th. | ||

No way they would've been 5th. 4th at least in the worst case. Against the A-team it would've gone to the ace match, 1-3 loss worst case. Still enough to make the playoffs. | ||

I don't even know how Jin Air got this many wins considering how crappy they were playing like 3 weeks in. All of them one-sided, too. | ||

Sure Rogue sucked for a while and the loss vs Afreeca was bad. But aside from that they did really well, losing vs KT is no shame, they were super good on that day. | ||

Rogue sucked real bad for a bit and sOs took a few weeks to get a win aswell(also I still believe better players would have beaten him this week and last week). Not to mention Creator, Cure and Trap combined got as many wins as Rogue and more losses. It really looks weird that Jin Air only has 1 player with an actually good record and still makes the playoffs in 2nd place. But then I guess that's the prize you have to pay as a KT fan. Leenock, Losira, jjakji and SpeeD are at a combined 0-6. Our 4th player is close to being as bad as a forfeit. | ||

Well we still can make it, Zest and TY are both top 5 in the world. No other team has that setup | ||

No other team has that setup I think SpeeD just needs more practice and experience, he could become the 4th player eventually. His performance today was solid (he got a bit unlucky with ByuL going for a nydus) and he does many things right in general. Losira and Leenock have been much more disappointing to me (and nobody expected much out of jjakji). | ||

We should be able to defeat CJ but noooo, we have to lose 3-1 and lose our 2nd seed place. Man if JinAir wins against KT I'm going to cry (before you're going to ask, I believe in KT vs SKT rivalry more than JA vs KT or JA vs SKT) But if you like both teams equally, will you also cry if JA loses? | ||

And I'd assume he had the reapers at home because he was hoping Bunny would attempt to get up the ramp with hellions, in which case he'd have gotten caught and TY could have actually done damage to Bunny. | ||
