NA is a joke

Worlds should just be the 16 best teams at this point. Pretty sure tsm would be in relegation every season in Korea and struggle to make playoffs in china. Worlds should probably be 6+ lck teams and 4+ lpl teams.

I've been asking for awhile, please send an ENTIRE NA team to korea for a year. It would be super interesting, send like any team 1-3 place so they have something to do. Likewise add the third place korean team to NA.

Never forget OGN 2012 days. The original competitive standard.

NA is a joke or TSM is a joke? There's a difference somewhere in this

NA as a whole. I didn't even bother watching Nalcs this year because I know it's just a waste of time. It's like watching d league basketball... completely meaningless except for the players who might make some money. Playing against other na teams does nothing but breed a losing culture. For what its worth, Jensen and Impact are the two best players in NA imo, so c9 should survive, but mostly because their group is terrible.

That's pretty boring. It only tells me you watch what matters and make your judgment off of that. In this case it was TSM. I feel you sat strongly on the "TSM is NA" mentality. You want "the best" and "the best" is not getting it done for the region you want to prevail.

TSM isn't all of NA, but if they are the "best" and look incompetent it's bad. Usually most weeks throughout the season based on patches I know who to expect to win based on team comps alone. Just like in sports, you study the better players, not the guy who sits on the bench the whole game. That's why I don't care to watch NA. Who cares if you can beat up on a bunch of over the hill gamers and people who shouldn't even be pro's.

Sidenote: Riot should have disabled ardent censor once it became 100% required, this is just as bad as fiora essentially destroying all of worlds all over again. It's clearly broken.

Just Fire Parth and Sven and bring in new coach and jgler............................................. and also i think biofrost need to learn to play janna/ taric if he was to play those champ and draft around them i think they could have at least won.

p.s -__- i wonder y Parth didn't allow DL to play xayah?????? imo xayah is like the best adc with protection and outplay p.s.s NA still suck if they can't even draft correctly zzzzzzzzzz

Ya draft's are predictable and obvious. Essentially everyone on binary, skill less champs who are stat checks as a team concept every game. Outside of his one cass game bjerg didn't really play anything skill shot based with any sort of agency. TSM is easily the most over rated team in recent memory. Any time impact went against them he made them look bad, contractz is so much better than sven it's a bad joke. I would have loved to see Adrian in these world finals. The meta fits him so perfectly. They simply rely on teams being bad or making mistakes to win, and that will never work against actual good teams.
