Hello,

I would like to share with you my opinion on the quarterfinals that will be played on October 20, 2017.

SKT vs. MSF

SKT are in great shape, which also proves the fight against EDG. The reason why they lost against AHQ is that Peanut has been inconsistent lately and Mountain has been carrying his team with perfect Seju in jgl. Also target bans on SKT bottane (Rakan, Twitch, Xayah) helped AHQ to win their game smoothly. Bang literally did not do anything, but that's not because he's incosistent like peanut, he just couldnt do anything against that fed teamcomp.

MSF**** Young and talented players. PoE and Maxlore are in great shape,they are playing even better than in the EULCS. But honestly BO5 against SKT, I think they can win one game.

RNG vs FNC

RNGs have a high potential for winning the championship. A greatly synchronized team and Xiaohu and Uzi ... need nothing to say. Simply God tier team right now.

FNC in the second week of group stage, proved everyone wrong. With the EU star Rekkles they managed to 4-1 and they got to the quarterfinals, but this is probably their ticket home. RNG will win 3-0.

LZ vs SSG I honestly do not know what to say, a balanced match 3-2 for Longzhu.

WE vs. C9

This is 60 to 40 for WE. But C9 have a high chance of winning unless they do the same against SKT, but WE is not SKT.

What are your predictions ? Tell me in comments ! [garen-swing]

MSF - I want to vote for them so hard, but they can't close. And that is a deadly sin against SKT. The Korean team known for taking any single mistake and snowballing the teamfight to win (see EDG... twice). Even if SKT is not "in form" they will win the teamfights over the course of 5 games.

RNG wins, but I will not put them at winning. They just don't have it in them.

SSG wins because they are clutch... except BDD is literally the best player imo. If he was not on LZ, I would say SSG cinderella story again, right now I am conflicted. BDD is just too good.

WE wins for sure. It is C9s best opponent, but they just don't look good enough on an individual level.

Not to bad. I tend to agree

SKT vs. MSF They are playing too many late game comps. I wonder what will happen if they face off against teams who are better at closing games. EDG was horrible at it. Even against C9, they had a hard time.

**RNG vs FNC **I think this will be a stomp against FNC. Outside of Soaz, i don't think any lane can do well

**LZ vs SSG **LZ will stomp. Nothing else to say here

**WE vs. C9 ** C9 need to ban out Cait, Galio, J4 to have a good chance. These chinese teams can't play team fights well but the snowball better than korean teams. It's why the Galio+J4 works so well for them
