Lucians gonna be a top pick ADC in worlds along with Vayne and Kalista, I can feel it.

I'm gonna go get my Lucian freelo in, as soon as that new skin comes out!

Edit: word

 

Watch this short Dlift interview. Now, I completely hate Travis, and the interview itself is unnecessary and not informative, but I thought that all the small interactions between Dlift and Gosu were very heartwarming. You can just tell that she keeps him grounded, helps him with nervousness, and they often share the same thoughts.

My day is made.

 

How can it be confirmed when it was known all along? :facepalm

 

gosu? Who's that?

LCK playoffs gauntlet: Jin Air Greenwings knock out Najin and CJ Entus to face KT Rolster for 3rd seed. Somewhat surprised by those results, though admittedly the last time I kept up with OGN was when CJ Blaze was on a roll and there were sister teams.

 

wut? he didnt get changed at all

 

I wish Trundle wasn't so incredibly, stupidly easy to kite. He'd be perfectly balanced if they made it just a bit harder to kite him.

 

AYYYYOOO.

What a glorious day, Kakao and KT qualify on the same day. This seals the deal, for all I care Western teams can flunk out of groups to Wild Cards. Time for KT (and ex KT members) to show SKT which Telecom company is superior.

 

I think you're forgetting a certain LCK final here

 

He got some small buffs to his passive and his W which really helped out and with the meta shift taking place a mobile adc like Lucian is gonna be huge, just wait til worlds. Top three adc.

Edit: He also got a cool new skin

 

I know it is unlikely for KT to best SKT, but you need to hold in mind that Faker hasn't really been challenged in his supremacy since the Korean exodus, barring the EDG set.

I'm curious as to how the 3 Chinese representatives show up, because they are all formidable teams in their own right, each fulfilling a different style and niche.

IG for worlds baby.

 

I'm sad QG didn't make it but I love Zzitai so it's k

 

I'm fairly confident that Faker is still the best player in the world, however I don't like Wolf and Bang's chances again a bot lane like that of LGDs.

I'm hoping SKT wins worlds as Bengi and Marin have been playing really well in the play offs and the bot lane is consistent but not remarkable.

 

Logged on for the first time since the server change last night. I've been getting the black screen firewall error every. Single. Game. Doesn't matter mode or map. Any advice?

 

http://www.twitch.tv/riotgames worlds groups draw just started!


Pool A-----------Pool B---------Pool C------------Pool D

CLG---------------FNC----------SKT-----------------LGD
Flash Wolves------IG-----------H2K----------------KT Rolster
KOO---------------AHQ----------EDG----------------TSM
Pain Gaming------C9-----------Bangkok Titans-----Origin



Thoughts:
Group A: CLG! KOO tigers are the only beatable Korean team to me, and both teams should be able to beat Flash Wolves and pain gaming. This group is the easy group by far. Flash Wolves might beat CLG, because I am a clg fan and understand well the pain of being a clg fan, but this was by far the best possible draw for CLG. Like, this group looks rigged.

Group B: Fnatic looks pretty strong here to me. The amount of research/coaching they do make me not worried about AHQ. This group is the Hardmode version of Group A- It's not the easiest group, but its close.

Group C: Ryu vs Faker. Will Ryu ever stop dying? SKT and EDG are coming out of here. I feel bad for H2K, but their only chance of getting out of groups was if they were in Group A.

Group D: LGD and KTR. If CLG got the groups rigged for them, TSM got them rigged against them. I almost feel bad for them, and I feel Origin has the better chance of pulling victories over KTR then TSM does (I dont think LGD will drop a game)


Overall, I expect CLG and KOO, Fnatic and IG, SKT and EDG, and LGD and KTR to make it out. Sticking SKT and EDG in the same group sets up an SKT/EDG finals (teams in the same group can't meet again until the finals due to bracketing rules), which would be the most dramatic by far (who's the best in the world? Faker or Pawn?)

 

Yeah. This shit is def rigged.

I am ready for Cloud 9 to lose the first 2 games in groups and then win the rest and come out first, heard it here first.

 

God please, my CLG fan roommate won't let me hear the end of it if CLG makes it out of groups and C9 doesn't

Typo

 

Only CLG could possibly fuck up so bad that they DON'T make it out with the group they've been gifted.

 

Pretty cool fanmade Worlds hype video. No clue where the quote is from, but it gave me chills, especially near the end.
