@lorx: They only showed two matches. It's round robin style, so everyone plays one game against each opponent in their group once and the top 2 move on. aAa, or Team France, is in Group D, should be playing tomorrow sometime if I remember the schedule correctly. Fnatic doesn't exist for this particular finals btw. Everyone got split up by nationality, so you end up with CLG Canada vs CDE which are essentially TSM and CLG split in half with half in the US team, and half in the Canada Team.
Not sure if they'll showcase any France matches though because WCG are being idiots and only showcasing like 2 hours worth of LoL games, which generally means we get two matches selected from all the ones played that day. Here's the match results so far, but I'm not sure when they'll get updated.
First streamed game was Germany (Acer) vs Vietnam (Siol). Germany beat them pretty solidly imo. Hated the poor camera control from whomever was doing it, which was not Elementz or Daemon. Elementz proved to be insightful and fulfilled a lot of my expectations as a caster. Hope he'll do more of them for the showcased matches.
Second streamed game was Spain (MYM) vs US (Dignitas) and streamed a solid 20-30 minutes late. Quality was terrible, but pretty solid play from Dignitas. Didn't have Elementz casting, so I ended up watching Dan Dinh talk about it. Way more insightful than whomever they had doing it even Dan was a little inebriated at the time. XD
Overall, debating whether I'll watch any more due to the average to terrible stream quality, but still enjoying watching top teams/players competing. CDE vs CLG Canada is the one I think everyone's looking forward to as far as NA goes, but I'm also wondering what some of the other teams will look like compared to them.
