As a C9 fan and NA enthusiast...
I still believe they can finish first in their group. Go C9!

C9 fan here. SKT would have to lose twice. AHQ and EDG wont do it, and even if Cloud 9 beats them once I doubt they would win the tiebreaker
C9 got the least close to beating SKT. AHQ and EDG were way ahead of C9 in their match versus SKT. Don't expect it to happen.
They can't, deal with it
What you want to happen is C9 to be @2 and get to fight someone from group C. Preferably Samsung Galaxy.
It's possible, but beating SKT is always an uphill battle. They didn't play SKT badly the first time at least and overall C9 is playing well. I'll just be happy as long as they take another 2-1 next week and make it out. Let's hope TSM and IMT take care of business as well.
EDG again, looks like s$it in groups but we've seen teams lose out in groups being up 3-0 so, EDG could possibly still get out from a 0-3 hole too. AHQ beat C9 2 years ago in the tie-breaker to get out of groups and while AHQ is nowhere near C9 in my opinion, it still could happen. SKT being SKT.
C9 would have to beat SKT and AHQ/EDG and also beat SKT again most likely since I don't see EDG or AHQ beating them to get placed first in group. So, basically dethrone SKT twice in 1 day, 4 games total in the "super-week", doubtful, 2nd should be where they will most likely end up( HOPEFULLY higher but no lower ! )
Right now I'm just hoping they make it out of groups. That's a win enough for me.
