LMS only has 2 spots, but yeah, those teams are pretty solid ones. I don't think ROX is going to actually be top seed for KR. They choke too hard if they play against SKT imo, and SKT are pretty good in Bo5s to begin with, so I think they'll take 1st seed with ROX getting second and SSG or KT taking 3rd. I think NA can still see CLG pop into the equation if CLG gets it together well enough. Someone else had pointed out that all CLG has to do is get a singe place below IMT this split and they win the second seed, leaving IMT in the qualifiers and I think we can have a pretty decent bet as to who would then win the third seed for Worlds.
I'd put more money on WE than IM. As for Korea, I wouldn't underestimate SSG, as they are top 2 in the LCK currently and could very well make a gauntlet run or even deep playoffs.
I say C9 rather than TL cause they just been a bit sloppy lately. Also, CLG could actually make it due to their victory in Spring if IMT don't take 2nd. Also, I say SSG rather than ROX.
I would guess the same
Forever remember the c9 counter sweeps
C9 or TL... putting my money on TL. I definitely think that whichever team wins the last game in the season (Literally, they play week 9 Day 2 vs each other. Can't wait!) will probably decide who will go to worlds. TL does look like the team that will make it for me, b/c they do have sort of a trademark aggression thanks to the four man carry potential and Dardoch and Matt's decisive shotcalling compared to C9's more reactive play, with huge playmaking potential thanks to Sneaky and Jensen (Don't stop bodying fools m8 ;) Can't wait till worlds! Trying to get tix to Chicago so hopefully I'll see an NA team. See you there NA (?)
Its a coin flip for Cloud 9 and Team Liquid as Team solomid and Immortals are two of the safer picks at this point. It sucks for C9 and TL as both show great promise but only 1 gets to go. IF Cloud 9 doesn't go it won't feel the same as C9 has always represented NA at Worlds, and it will mark the starting point of a rebuild in my mind. IF Team Liquid doesn't go it will be just another year that Curse/Liquid falls short for Worlds yet again, its also sad to see such a young group not get a chance at Worlds after working so hard.
SSG looks really good and should not be underestimated as the once proud SSW and SSB you know that Org, looks to be a Juggernaut once again.
ROX looked really good and at 1 point I thought they were the best team in the World but then they fell off some but did they really fall off that much competing with an all ready Worlds environment in LCK.
Nice post and Have a Good One
