StJohnHospitalJan 13, 2015128 votes

surprised bjergsen isn't on this list, i think he stands out as a strong player in the lcs

KybreJan 13, 201595 votes

He's not one to watch. Everyone's already been watching him :)

BewitchingCougarJan 13, 201515 votes

There's quite a few players people are already watching on the list tho

Winged AlpacaJan 13, 201534 votes

And we aren't watching Faker?

GenisysArcJan 14, 201574 votes

yeah faker isnt in the lcs hes in the fcs. Faker Championship series cuz hes in a league of his own

Total 5 DestinyJan 13, 20155 votes

UZI and doublelift are both famous too but they are on the list...

QuietDanJan 14, 20152 votes

Uzi just transferred from Royal Club to OMG. I think this is more of watch and see how he does with his new team.

LumaiusJan 13, 201512 votes

And where're Deft and Imp when there's Piglet.. Who the hell made this list?

GoutineleJan 13, 20157 votes

I think piglets only on here because he transferred from korea of all places to na.

imFalnJan 13, 201524 votes

because PowerOfEvil is on this list.

Doomsday9901Jan 14, 20155 votes

Ahahaha this comment so true

VexxedJan 13, 201538 votes

Kiwikid? Is that a joke? Are we watching him to see when he finally gets benched or just to see him feed and lose games?

Azure The GodJan 13, 20152 votes

agreed

iosefstalinJan 13, 201534 votes

Where is Vizicsacsi, who made Swain and Poppy top a meta? Where is Kikis, who had incredible picks on IEM, like Wukong or Twisted Fate? I think they - along with PoE - will be the most interesting players in this split... maybe not in the world, but I'm sure at least in EU.

TCFactoryJan 13, 20154 votes

Seconding that. I'm really happy that Keane with his midlane Heca made the list, but I'm missing Kikis and Vizicsacsi too. I think Gravity and UOL will be the two most interesting teams to watch this season.

The best ADC NA hands down in my opinion. :)

KanaHighJan 13, 20158 votes

lol? piglet and rekkles are much better

RydJan 13, 20151 votes

What team did Rekkles join??

JohnWithaHJan 13, 20153 votes

Elements, its the new alliance team

Lokkenload1Jan 13, 20151 votes

neither of those are na

GoutineleJan 13, 20156 votes

you know piglet is in na now right?

GoutineleJan 13, 201514 votes

idk about rekkles being much better at all lol. sneaky has for the most part performed well against alliance let alone rekkles.

sacamuelaJan 13, 201517 votes

So, 11 NA players...... Where is Kikis(TF Jungler)?,vizicsacsi(Playing Top Poppi and Yoric), Pinoy(overaggressive ADC), Forgivengre(new in SK), and the new teams...

Kiwikid....srly?. And who doesnt watch: Hai, DL, Faker, shiphtur, etc?

SkanahJan 13, 201510 votes

Players like Hai and Faker don't need extra attention, everyone already knows to watch them.

Sloth the GodJan 14, 20151 votes

just because kikis tf jungle had a good game doesnt mean he is someone to watch, the main thing there was the surprise element and catching tsm off guard. i do agree he was innovative but not someone to watch, or at least not in the top 20

sacamuelaJan 15, 20153 votes

I think he deserve it more than Kiwikid and at least 4 or 5 more people in this list. Innovation is something that not a lot of player have and this guy has it, like Diamonprox. Most of the players on the list are already famous and everyone watch them.

NiSoKrJan 13, 201512 votes

Where are Froggen and Rekkles? And why are Woolite and KiWiKiD here?

EyeDragonJan 13, 201512 votes

Rumble C9Balls is too good for this list. summoner 14

WindsighJan 13, 20153 votes

Kinda impressed that he is not on the list, huh.

DeltaRavenJan 14, 20157 votes

Everyone's probably already watching him, who could forget the cheers of "BAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS" every time he was on screen last season.

damaskedbuttholeJan 13, 20157 votes

Meteos? After all the talking he gets no one is interested in his coming play?

BoilTheOilJan 14, 20157 votes

"Doublelift is god,Everybody else sucks".

MimiDivineJan 13, 20156 votes

How about Impact :D he going to play in NA LCS this season

WillFurnoJan 13, 20155 votes

Seems to me the list is heavily weighted to players on NA teams. Just an observation.

DarkLordBruceJan 13, 20154 votes

Faker all the way for 2015 :) Akali

MAD LibertyWarthJan 14, 20154 votes

Uzi and Faker are the truth of this game

SVzgUIiH6sJan 14, 20154 votes

I'm excited to see Diamond from Gambit, Gambit played amazingly in December at the IEM in Cologne and I'm really excited to see how they do in the upcoming lcs, and most especially Diamond jungling with Sejuani,

KageKitsune15Jan 13, 20153 votes
