Open mid:

Korean: all 5 players on a team wait in fountain and let enemy team end game as quickly as possible.

American: wait for the enemy team to drop their guard and then all in.

The reason that happens is because only one person wants to open.

I think the main reason this happens in Korea is that most youths have a more strict scedule of time to play, other people also play in Internet Cafe's, so if many don't think the game will be win, they will try to end it faster in order to conserve time for another game. Same reason why in Korea ff@20 happens more often than NA or EU.

They don't call it The Classic NA Open for no reason.

As you can see, American strategy is superior.

In eu is 4 people go afk and 1 guy thinks he will 1v5 at the inh tower while we talk shit to him for stalling the game out

Im quite sure the none-korean version is when you all in them as the nexus is exposed and you already lost every chance to come back, but still stall the game out by another 3 min for no apparent reason.
