League of Legends World Championship

Anyone watching? What team are you rooting for? I'm rooting for CLG at the moment but whoever Riot contracted to provide internet for this place sucks as it keeps going out and screwing over the players and requiring rematches...

Anyways. Been watching? Let's discuss!

Oh and question, why aren't they just using LAN? Does LoL not support LAN?

I honestly don't get all the excitement, I love playing LoL but to me there is nothing more boring than watching other people play it. Starcraft 2 I can see the entertainment value in but LoL? I just don't see anything in it as an eSport. I mean the game isn't balanced enough to take the ranked mode seriously.

I've been watching it, but yea I agree, when every single match for 3 days is almost literally all the exact same picks and bans it doesn't lend a lot of credibility to "balance."

Also the internet issues=almost 8 hrs for the first match up today, with 3 restarts and almost 2 hrs of downtime (maybe exaggeration, I wasn't counting, but its been a LONG time) do not make a good tournament.

Other than that, I'm liking Azubu Frost, they seem cool, but CLG.EU are pretty cool as well. I'm enjoying watching the actual games quite a bit.

I offically love SK for that crazy double teleport splitpush win on the first day. Trolololol, love the Flash just to ensure the last hit on the base is safe. I can't watch all of it though since UK times make it last through to like 4 in the morning.

Also all the Ezreal picks, love it.

Azubu Frost are probably my favourites to win but I honestly don't care about who wins as long as the last games are HYPE AS FUCK! ^^

I find it ridiculously silly that people are using other people's clan symbols as their avatar things in LoL. That's about all I have to say on the matter I suppose. But then if you read any of my previous posts you'll see that I'm somewhat against labels of any kind, I guess, so no surprise there.
