[Elfstruck]

The 2nd seed of EU beating Korea's star child would be delicious.

 

[Leezard]

Faker just outclasses Ryu, he pretty much turned around the deficit by himself.

 

[Type2]

The next fight should have a useful gnar but trist is also picking up steam.
I love skts comp and I'm not sure h2k have any sort of chance if they don't make something big happen in the next 5 mins.

Faker outclassing your mid is going to be the reality for any team going against them. You have to play around that.

 

[Ambition]

Fiora so broken.............................

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Marin BOYZ!

 

[Godan]

Such a bait.

 

[Leezard]

H2K got a great start to the team fight but Marin turned it all around. Great play.

 

[Merovin]

Fiora is disgusting.

 

[AcridMeat]

Hahahahahahahahhaahha oh H2k...just take the W on that fight man.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Who needs Faker when you're not a worzee opponent

 

[Elfstruck]

Bad play from h2k. They shouldn't chase bengi, but focus on fiora.

 

[Edwardo]

Lol

 

[KumaJG]

Marin a god!

 

[PhillipCostigan]

best champion :^)

 

[Leezard]

The Marin play was so important for this game.

Thanks for tainting the west's win rate, H2K

H2K honestly put up a good fight against one of the favorites of the entire tournament.

They had an actual chance to win, they just blew it.

[Ambition]

H2K got blinded by greed. So far SKT looks beatable.

 

[Prototype Viktor]

Good try H2K

H2K wildly exceeded expectations. They still lost, but they did a lot better than anyone could have predicted.

Next game will be over in 15 minutes

 

[cHinzo]

So.. EDG to win this all?

I thinkg EDG and LGD are the biggest contenders for this years championship with FNC and SKT close behind

I thought the game was dying.

Yep. I question any team picking an assassin into Faker. Just give up on the idea of winning the lane and holding back Faker and/or pressuring the side lanes. Just pick a strong teamfighter.

Bad play from h2k. They shouldn't chase bengi, but focus on fiora.

I disagree. If Ryu followed his team in following Elise the end of that fight goes from being a 3v3 to a 5v3. Fiora, Alistar, and Trist were not in position to help Elise so there was no reason for Leblanc to attempt to zone them out. If Leblanc follows the rest of the team, she lives, Braum can reposition away from the opposition instead of towards them in a vain attempt to save LB, and Leblanc is then available to blow up Fiora if she jumps anyone. Even then the fight was winnable. The announcers went on and on about how great a play Fiora made at the end of the fight, but all I saw a Sivir who was at the head of her team, stupidly well in range of Fiora, and easy to isolate by headbutting the champion on her right. Fiora's triple at dragon had a way more to do the other team being dumb.

After Faker went down that fight was won and red side threw hard.

EDG blew it in the playoffs, and LGD was 5th in the summer split.

I don't think it's that clear cut where SKT was 1st in summer split and winners of the summer and spring playoffs.

DAMN MARIN!

Back to reality
At least Ryu killed Faker #worth

It's dying for GAF. We're too busy playing our new favourite game.

 

[Type2]

Well, I guess I should cook my breakfast now. I feel like these group outcomes could be a little more interesting that what people initially expected. Maybe teams not leaving as cleanly as we thought although the outcome will be the same.

 

[Cuddler]

Faker didn't even play that well imo, what are you guys talking about?

I would give Flash Wolves a better chance to beat CLG than Pain beating Koo. :d

I think the majority here agree that H2K fought well against SKT. Faker did in fact play better than Ryu though.
Edit: I like Pawn's new haircut. Not bad

Here's a link to the 'game' a lot of people are playing. It offers and explanation and rewards http://pickem.na.lolesports.com/en-US#how-to-play

Riot is running a promotion that if you guess all winners correctly you win a rare skin, might be that

If you correctly predict all results, you get a rare skin that you can't buy anymore.

Well RIP my skins is a reference to the gambling that goes on for CSGO matches, but Riot ran a thing where if you pick the winner of matches correctly you get Championship Riven, which is a highly desired legacy skin.


Ah yes, the mid-worlds patch will surely bring Veigar back into line.

Thanks!

 

[thestopsign]

Awesome first three games! Go C9!

Streaming numbers are pretty insane considering it is the middle of the work/school day for most of North America. They are only going to go up on the weekends.

 

[Cuddler]

I agree with that, I just don't think he outclassed Ryu today.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

I agree with that, I just don't think he outclassed Ryu today.

They both played nerfed champions.

Azir is way more nerfed. You can see Faker had to buy an early boot because of the movement speed nerf when Ryu was nearing a Morellonomnomnom.
