So after a whole 4 days of hype...
Worlds results proceeds as usual, with the one exception of a wild card team breaking out of groups. But, NA crashes and burns, China does 50/50 games: either we win hard to lose hard, Korea demolishes the competition, and EU sneaks in a team or 2 because KR and CN can't fill out the entire quarters. This has gone from being the most exciting Worlds yet to now the most boring worlds yet. They dangled a possible breakdown of the regional rankings in front of us, then laughed in our faces when things returned to normal. Why do I even bother watching anymore? I skipped last year for good reason, should have skipped this one too.
