I'm not even going to try to predict the C9 vs FNC series.

However, my boi, the legendary Hjarnandonger himself, will take down IG.

(Seriously though any of these semis could go either way. I have IG over G2 because of the stylistic matchup, with IGs sololaners being superior to those of G2. FNC I have winning the entire thing in my pickems, but that's just blind speculation and hope at this point.)

 

Jensen is the worst of three western mids, I'd say.

 

Don't say it!

I think they're all around the same level and it'll just depend on match ups and who shows up on the day.

 

Fnatic will win against C9, hopefully in a close 5 game series. Then they will beat in 4 games the team coming from the other side. G2 vs IG can go either way.

 

I agree that Fnatic is the favorite in the coming match, so if this tournament is true to form then C9 will win.

 

*Looks at Western Hype*

*Looks at bracket*

*Sees one LPL team remaining*

See y'all in two weeks.

 

I managed to score 34 points in my pick ems in the group stage (still not sure how though), which is good because nothing is going how I'd expected it to go in the knockout stages.
If everything goes according to the way things have been turning out so far; it's going to be a C9 vs G2 final with either Sneaky's Sivir or the Hjarnandonger clutching it in game 5.
...I miss the certainty our old SKT overlords used to bring to these events.

 

Sitting at 39 points in my pickems thanks to faith in C9

 

I had faith in Kt, rookie mistake really, I should have learned by now (TL certainly learned the hard way).

 

I had 46 points in groups but only got 5/20 in quarters lol

 

Faith in KT has been a mistake for years.

 

Just got to watch G2 Wunder get cyberbullied in the flesh, AMA.

 

Was your ear raped by Chinese fans as well, or did Riot specifically choose that audience for the fan sounds?

 

TheShy is so good, too bad his Worlds is going to end with Licorice shitting on him.

 

You mean Bwipo... The G2 games were painful to watch and I knew they would lose the series beforehand as IG just wasn't a good match up, but I didn't quite expect them to lose like that.

If IG plays like this in the final, it's gg ez no matter, if it's Fnatic or C9.

 

Bad matchup overall, G2 needs to win and snowball solo lanes to have a chance at taking a game but you can't do that against IG.

I'm a lot more confident in Fnatic's chances against IG than I am of C9's, but I'll support whoever wins the other semi.

 

All I need is for Broxah!Jesus to pop off and Rekkles and Hyli to get ahead (don't you fucking dare to go int!Hyli on me!). I'm confident that Bwipo/Soaz and Caps can go even in lane against TheShy/Duke and Rookie, or at least not fall behind as hard as G2 did in those games (because that was fucking horrible to watch).

First they have to play C9 though. I'm hard biased, obviously. Fnatic all the way. Stomp those NA peasants.

 

END MY SUFFERING

 

Effortless games, good fucking series.

As a TL fan since cursemurse it feels good to see C9 in the dirt, after repeat worlds denials, especially after how damn smug they were at getting out of groups again.

 

Well that sucked.

Go FNC?

Also C9 best team in NALCS history
