I tried to put together likely roster lists for the NA Expansion Tournament. The top 7 ranked 5s Challenger teams, plus six relegated teams from the Promotion/Relegation tournament, will contest it. The ladder locks tomorrow night.
Three relegated teams:
Complexity - Westrice, Kez, goldenglue, Demunlul, Lohpally
Coast - Cris, Impaler, Jesiz, MashMe, Sheep
Curse Academy - Hauntzer, Saintvicious, Keane, Cop, BunnyFuFu
LoLPro - Flaresz, Thinkcard, Yusui, KEITHMCBRIEF
[Not clear if Denial and XDG, who should have spots in the tournament, will be fielding teams.]
Notable Potential Ranked 5s Teams and their current spot on the list:
1. The Cackson 5 (also known as NME E-Sports) - cackgod, Inori, dawolfsclaw, otter, Bodydrop
[Spots 2 and 3 are held by Coast and Complexity.]
4. Fusion - MaKNooN, Nintendude, Huhi, Nien, Gleeb
5. Zen E-Sports - TheSoloKing, MiMo, Easy, alextheman, k1
9. Dank Dang Gaming - RF Legendary, Prototype Heaven, Chunky, EvanRL, ExecutionerKen
18. crushed dreamz [Ex-Complexity] - Hate (formerly known as i Kenny U), Xmithie, prolly, RobertXLee, Bubbadub
This tournament looks like it could be a great watch, especially if the ex-Complexity members can make it in. Lots of ex-pros and long time hopefuls chasing LCS spots. I would make Curse Academy, Fusion and NME the favourites, but these qualifier events are famous for throwing up surprise runs.
