Why am I getting the feeling that SKT might win again this year?

We all know how skilled these guys are, but what makes me even more concerned is that if SKT manage to win this years' Worlds, then what are the chances that they might win yet again next year?

Don't get me wrong, I like SKT, but I don't want them to win every single year and not see other teams get a chance in winning even once. I was hoping Cloud9 might have a chance in getting to at least the semi-finals, but with SKT back at it again, then there might be no chance for any other team to win Worlds 2016.

These are just my thoughts, though. I just hope other teams like Cloud9, TSM, EDG, or RNG could beat SKT out before they have a chance.

This is the weakest that SKT has ever looked going into worlds. They will probably make it pass Groups, but the chances of them winning are minimal at best.

They could win, but their competition this year will be better than it's ever been in the past while SKT itself is slightly weaker than last year (EU possibly excluded - I haven't kept up with them a lot this year but people seem to think they're not-so-hot this year).

SKT placed 3rd in summer split LCK so yea, they are beatable.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if C9 beat SKT at least in groups based on how Impact has been playing.

That's not how sports work, you can't just ban good teams because they win all the time lol

6 super bowl appearances in the last decade says otherwise

Really? Because 3 superbowl wins and the most regular season wins of any QB in the last decade combined with this 4 game "deflate-gate-bate-mate" suspension thingy kinda proves true.

SKT hasnt looked super strong lately teams like EDG, ROX, and MAYBE SSG looks stronger than them

I'm trying not to be too biased on this one but I think Cloud9 could give them a really tough time or maybe even beat them in groups

There is a good chance. The favorite in the tourney Rox Tigers has been unable to take a single game off of SKT in the summer split. I think your teir list is wrong I do not thing C9 or RNG are threats (could be wrong) but ROX was the only team to take a game of off them last year. The thing is that they are all saying SKT looked like shit but only lost 2-3 agaist a team that lost 2-3 to ROX. Based of off this if SKT actually shows up they will crush everyone, but in the end we shall see.

only way to make skt not win is knocking them off ogn regionals/playoffs only ones to do dat were pawn and kt only thing skt ever lost internationally was msi 2015 with faker getting 5 man counterpicked and getting his 1st loss on lb basically what im saying is dat if they go to worlds they win simple as dat final will prob be skt vs ssg
