Season 3 World Championships

[Sullla]

The IPL5 format required way too many games and was nearly impossible to understand. This was what the bracket looks like, for crying out loud:




There's no need to mess around with this confusing double elimination format. Just mimic the format from the world's most popular sporting event.

Some very interesting games again. I was very surprised that Ozone beat Gambit, but in a certain way it was a textbook strategic performance. At 27 minutes the kill score was only 2-1 yet Ozone was completely winning. I have rarely seen such a perfect poke comp play before.
I think Ozone had a really nice start agan Fnatic, too. But why on earth Dade got himself killed two times in short succession in the 1v2 lane was a little hard to understand. It turned into an entertaining stomp by Fnatic though.

I guess Fnatic will go through in group B, but it seems Gambit, Ozone and even Vulvun could still grab the second spot.

Europeans got lucky for once, the games that matter are going to be played first today and the irrelevant games are in the night

The crowd tried to help TSM win by warning them about ganks. Dyrus said in Reddit that he did indeed hear the warnings and understood them.

Dyrus's post was a joke.

Well HotshotGG's definitely wasn't a joke and he also thinks it's a problem.
Here is the post:

Riot, please stop this bullshit and get soundproof booths. The extra production value is not worth it. Putting the white noise up DOESN'T HELP, so please stop that too. I'm sorry, but this issue has gone on for too long. I've heard countless Barons and ganks as they were happening because of the speakers + audience. In my pro career I can safely safe I've heard GAME CHANGING things from the outside at least 5 or 6 times.

Ruining the spirit and fairness of competition is NOT worth it. I love Riot and everything they've done for the scene but this just boils my blood to hear about every time. Sympathize for the players, I know a game where it was lost for a team due to players hearing outside noises. Even if there is a small chance of it happening, this is a teams future being diminished because of negligence.

holy shit that game

[Krill]

I was routing for GG cos I want them in quarters now that the dream of Mancloud versus Faker is dead, so I'm pleased...

I hope gambit makes it. They have played very well so far and deserve the quarter finals, if not the semis or the championship.

Awesome two games.
