TSM took down World Elite and CJ Entus (China's 12th place and Korea's 3rd place respectively). World Elite fought their way back into the semi-finals where they took down GE Tigers (Korea's current 1st place that had yet to drop a set). TSM beat Flash Wolves (LMS #1 team).

So we have NA's #1 team against China's 12th place as the finals for IEM.

Also, World Elite are using substitutes who haven't before played with the team. So yeah.

It's because in the past, Korea's Esports scene as a whole was a national identity for them much like MLB or NFL in the US. In the US, however, the Esports scene (though it's grown a lot since S2) has been more like the Minor Leagues. NA is getting close to being on par with the likes of Korea and China now, though and it won't be long until an NA team wins the World Championships.
