ALL-STARS

Dyrus Interview important notes:
"China > Europe > Korea > NA is the current fan pick, so I'll just go with what they say."

Alex Ich interview is next!





Discuss the All-Stars!

I'm gonna regret having to stay up. Planning to watch at least the 2 v 2s...I have to get up at 9:30 (EST) tomorrow.

Edward is the best player of the EU team.

My Opinion on lanes:

Jungle: Korea = China > NA > EU > GPL
Top: Korea=China=NA > GPL > EU
Bot: China=NA > Korea > GPL > EU
Mid: Korea > China=Eu=NA > GPL

Holy sh'it NA ADC/Support just dumpstered GPL.

That was the fastest game; then again it was 2v2.

I hope SaintV dumpsters Insec.

3 options for the Korean team to win; they actually reached it to that decision. Amazing.

Wow that was the best 1 v 1 (SaintVicious vs Twitch).

Nice strategy with the Heimer.

Not enough #dongermechanics .

Seriously though that was really good. If there wasn't the 100 cs thing SV wouldve won. I personally think that is a bad rule.

I personally think they should have like Best Riven NA tournament-must have 25 cs above opponent (I guess 20 or 15 in this case).

That Ace in the Hole by Diamond. Bah!

That cheesy acting.

I blanked out while the cosplayers were on stage. I tried to listen to Jatt and the others but the weird action just caught me off guard.

Jesus Christ NA threw.

Good guy Dyrus fell victim at the last fight.

That Zed Assist bug in Game 1.

TSM is better than this line-up.
This is just a shitty version of CLG.

Are you kidding? Their play was nothing like CLG. Doublelift and Xpecial were steady in lane both games. Saint spent more time helping Scarra and Dyrus. Doublelift didn't need to be babysat to be a threat, hell, no one needed to be babysat after the first tower exchange. The only standout weak point with NA was their teamfighting, but in both games China arguably had the better comp for teamfights to begin with.

Game 2 was played well by both teams, China just played better. Both of the teams played to their comps' advantages--NA had excellent pressure early and midgame, plus those two dives on Doublelift that were reversed, and they had a huge lead by like 25 minutes. The ace at Baron was a result of China being aware of NA's advantage running thin. They were already starting to transition into late game status with Weixiao and Misaya were getting close to three items, and the few minutes before the ace at Baron was China turtling perfectly so that NA's only option was to try to force a bad fight. The first game though was mostly Saint playing badly the entire game.

I kinda new that it'd be Europe and NA in the Loseres bracket. NA has a definite chance of winning, they just gotta do like they did in game 2 against LPL and just show that they can do things together.
