Or wait nevermind CJ doesn't seem realistic at all, they have a Masters match on the 13th and IEM starts 14th. | ||

From Korea: Jin Air Stealths (Kinda stabbing in the dark since it can't be a team from masters at the time so CJ entus and IM are out and I doubt samsung and KT want to travel to Poland and back for masters, Jin Air Stealths are a really strong team that somehow choked in qualifiers so it'd probably be in Jin Air's interests to get stealths any showings they can until next OGN) As for TPA they're still looking good, 5-0 in their GPL group (Though they got the lucky draw of not having TPS/AHQ and instead got yoe flash wolves who continue to suck and are actually at the bottom of a group with full louis and manilla eagles). Since TPS made recent roster changes and TPA are reigning GPL champions it makes more sense. Though AHQ would have probably been better imo | ||

Not sure who I'd like to see from Europe now that Fnatic seem to be in a slump of biblical proportions. Or wait nevermind CJ doesn't seem realistic at all, they have a Masters match on the 13th and IEM starts 14th. And Champions Spring begins on the 12th which might exclude some more teams from the possible list | ||

OGN pls If SKT were being represented I'm almost positive SKT would send S over K. Kkoma would want them to get more international experience. SKT K are so well known at this point that they don't need to win outside tournaments whereas putting S out there would get them more fans who don't know that much about them. IEM will be amazing though. This is TPA's chance to show the world how strong they are, but I still think they'll get overwhelmed at this point. Season 2 skill level vs season 3-4 is completely different, and a small region just can't compete against bigger ones. Normally I'd say the chinese teams would be favored here but I was really unimpressed with their games in LPL and I honestly believe C9 would beat them. Who wins depends on which Korean team is sent though. | ||

YG is iG's 2nd team and WE.Academy is WE's "academy" team, but actually the 3rd (?) team behind WE and PE, unless PE is a separate entity now. Having said that, they're probably still better than LMQ, the team that came to NA to take American money, EP.HK, PE, and the current Royal Club. LGD is supposed to be quite good, but I haven't seen them play for a while now. LGD is Yango's hipster pick to be good, but he said they won't be good for like a year. Their current LPL performance is one of the most terrible things I've ever seen it was disgustingly bad. Though apparently they went 1-1 vs EDG earlier today and I didn't see. Yango too good?

Like, you're watching Chinese teams play vs. other Chinese teams so it looks lackluster (and yes, LPL is weaker than before, at least right now), but they're still miles ahead of LCS. Also for an example of how bad PE is please refer to the WE vs. PE rapefest that's currently occurring. 10k gold difference at 15 minutes, 16k at 21 minutes, completely outclassed. | ||
