Two things as public notice: 1. + Show Spoiler [Quarterfinals 1 spoiler] +Congrats to Fnatic, they played superbly and glgl to them in the Semis! No one is saying that Fnatic only won because of the level 1 in Game 3. Please keep the nationalistic statements out of our subforum. 2. Riot's Worlds format is atrocious. Let's not beat a dead horse here. I will certainly be talking to Riot's eSports dept about it in the near future. I simply ask everyone to be civil. Humble in victory, graceful in defeat. Enjoy the games~ -Neo, Sept 23rd, 3:20 PM PDT, page 120 |

First pick vs second pick drafts very differently. I don't think it's coincidence that drafts from purple side are worse.
EDIT: In fact, part of the express purpose of changing the multi-phase ban system in DotA was to mitigate the first pick draft advantage (e.g. second pick in first pick phase gets first pick in the second pick phase).

that'd almost have brought them on the same level. The horror

I wonder how deep Nagne's champ pool is. He's only played Ahri so far, even in NLB he only played Ahri.

This was fixed like 2 days after they realized it. It was fixed first on the tournament server. As much as people are having fun with the blue side op stuff, please don't spread old information around.

Yeah, plz. blue side's op'd has to do with the hidden aura, not something as blatant as xp differences.

Monte, you're normally so smart, but the fact that you're missing out on this blueside thing. I've lost faith...

Well if there was a disconnect between FP and Side then maybe there would be a choice at the coin flip but there isn't so it's silly that coin flip isn't just who is blue lol(I guess it is anyway)

Calm teams in player cams >> Screaming teams. All that matters.

Why does the OP say NJBS is 2-0 when I'm seeing 1-1 on my screen

Nagne was one of the best Junglers in Korean solo queue. However with the poor performance of Ssong, he switched positions mid. His best champ is zed

It's very much a common saying in Korea too

I think I have this intermission song burned into my brain. I wish they at least got a different song between rounds. Also that sound of the game thing is nice. I wish they did it more.

It's very much a common saying in Korea too It was just so damn dramatic. I wonder if it was on the 5 man ori shockwave?
