i mean, IG just won the S8 champion, And it was the first champion for LPL region, right? How is there...almost nothing on the first page that mentions about IG? The only essay that contains the element of "IG" is an article from 3 days ago. Did IG do anything wrong or do they just enraged Rito buy beating FNC? XD Honestly, If i were a new league player, I'd think of the a team called "K/DA" won the world champion instead of some "random team called Invictus Gaming", because their pictures and related links are all over the sites. And IG? "whos IG i don't even see them?". That is a little bit unfair and hilarious, I think.

I think it'd just unfortunate timing of events on top of the outcome of the playoffs overall. In a way the quality of their win got pretty immediately drowned out not only by the new popular skin line but also the presented reasoning behind like 5 teams under performances at intervals of the playoffs; most notably FNC and C9 who had explaining to do in their respective camps. Then that turned into "who's really 2nd place" out of said group. Then it just goes to show that not a lot of people were really invested into IG taking the whole thing but instead were "the next best option" and nothing more.

There have been some articles that cover their win. But in a fan and community loop, the World's hype is pretty much all wrapped up. Now we're working on the last week grind!
