Pretty Happy With MSI

Starting this by saying I am a SKT fan. No, I am not a fanboy or bandwagoner, when I started late season 4(Well, came back, but I hardly ever played seriously before), I chose SKT because they played the champs I liked at the time. Nonetheless, I always support NA teams too, and was getting pretty fking fed up with the NA team jokes. Expected MSI to be a Korea steamroll, and looked like it after day 1, but this year it got actually exciting. Glad to see SKT win, and equally glad to see that NA stepped their game up an hopefully wont be the butt of alot of stupid jokes anymore, or at least the butt of "NA sucks" jokes. Much more exciting MSI than last years, actually stayed up to watch some of the finals live, looking forwards to worlds now alot more than I was before MSI, GG both teams!

Yeah I was happy with MSI too very competitive and exciting to watch. I expected 20 min stomps from the Korea and China teams but upsets happened and it was a nice change to see NA be good for a change.
If MSI was a small taste of what WORLDS will be I can't wait.

Most importantly, i feel like i learned a heck of a lot from watching players at this level play the game.

That's great that you have a team you root for, no matter who it is. It gives that extra incentive to understand the game and evolve your play.

Legit tho, i take a lot of mental notes when watching these games. the first game of draft i played after watching the finals i went 21/2 with Ahri.
