Cloud9 vs TSM - Summer Split Finals 2016 / Pre Worlds Discussion

Best draven NA

 

Best draven in world*

 

definitely!

 

That final was a really good watch. Both teams definitely stand a chance at worlds (As opposed to getting destroyed in groups) as long as they're able to work on their mistakes and c9 don't tilt as hard at worlds as they did in the NA finals.

EU never really showed anything impressive IMO. They have some decent teams but I wouldn't say they have any chances at worlds. The rest of the regions are looking decent as usual, I haven't followed them closely enough to get a good idea of them though.

Liftlift did a little under 11k damage in that one fight. Wtf? @_@

 

Pretty huge upset in the LCK (Korean) gauntlet today. Samsung beat KT Rolster in 5 games after losing 19 straight matches to them. How brutal for KT. They beat SKT, have a game 5 vs Rox to clinch worlds, lose, and then lose 2 games in a row up 2-1 to Samsung and don't make worlds at all. Brutal.

I think that's good for everyone else, Samsung is a lot weaker than KT Rolster. We saw KT beat SKT and almost beat Rox, which wouldn't bode well for other regions facing off against them. Now they avoid them entirely. Lucky.

 

G2 was outstanding in eu imo, they came back from vacation and everything went ezpz

 

G2 is the only european hope. The other european teams are complete and utter garbage.

 

Compared to the other EU teams sure they're up there, but I remember seeing some very obvious mistakes the last time I watched their games (Mind you it was a while back) and I wouldn't see them having any hope at an international event.

It's pretty easy to look good when the rest of your region is poor, but it's also a big disadvantage because the rest of the world has had experience all season long playing against the best teams in the world.

 

Yeah, when I say the only european hope, I mainly mean to get out of groups, there's no way G2 is good enough to win.

 

C9 beats IMT 3-1 and sets up a trip to worlds! good for them!!!

Really happy for Jensen after being so crushed in the Finals.

 

idk man i'm sad for imt, such a good team, 33-3 throughout series, only to get crushed by c9 here. Imo it would have set the standards higher if IMT went to worlds tbh, such champ diversity they bring out.

 

I agree. I wanted the 3 worlds teams to be TSM C9 and IMT. CLG fell apart, I like CLG, but since MSI they've been dog piss.

 

Oh yes, I only like Aphromoo in CLG, the rest are meh imo, esp their huhi...

 

Freaking love Aphrogod. Quite possibly my favorite LoL player period.

IWDominate was my favorite and of course retired soon after I started watching LCS. :/

 

Aphro for sure one of the best supports and 'coach' out there , good quality videos and skilled af

 

Great personality too.
