World Championships 2014 - Page 8 - League of Legends -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Anyways, I thought it`s funny how similar poker and league nationality wise. Like you rarely see any good Italian/Spanish players and Scandis got a lot of talent.

Murricans to fat to go outside and in Scandinavia its to dark to go outside.

So I just realized that they're playing the rest of the A and B group stage matches out this weekend. Does that seem a little unfair to anyone else? Gives group A/B teams a full week longer to prepare for their knockout stage matches than group C/D teams. Why wouldn't they just have C/D play this weekend, then C/D play next Thursday/Friday with A/B playing next weekend?

?

Why would they have to move it back and forth? Have all games played at this weekend's venue regardless, then have all games next weekend played at the other venue.

Well its Riot so you cant expect them to think about stuff like that. I do agree though that they should play all groups at the same time and if they want 2 venues they move them all for the 2nd round of groups.

Half the teams think lucian is better, White rates twitch higher as well

I think you can argue that Twitch is better in the hands of better teams. If a team can control the vision battle and set up picks then Twitch becomes much more valuable. So for a team like White who play Dandy on aggro junglers Twitch sets up better for a lot of their team comps.

Congrats TSM

did they say how they handle tiebreakers if EDG beats White, or TSM beats Royal?

SSW did give up a dragon and 2 kills in the second game, such a poor showing

I think they mentioned, in that case, they have a playoff for the top spot.

This is obv not the case for group A and group B but it would be funny if becomes +EV to lose the tie-breaker game.

SSW in a position where they could lose 0-2 to dodge Blue semi matchup

the China teams have looked pretty weak so far, at least when it comes to beating a Korean team. Royal does have some equity vs SSW where TSM doesn't

it is +EV for SSW to lose a tiebreaker, they dodge their sister team Semi-final to get the final Riot doesn't want

Blue could lose group games, and conceivably get 2nd in C omg/fanatic are worlds tested teams
