man darien carried those games pretty hard, good job by him! kinda sad that froggen couldn't go but w/e

so far for worlds we have:

fnatic
lemondogs
gambit
GG.eu
najin b. sword

c9?
vulcun?
clg/tsm?
ktb/ozone/sktt1?
iG/WE/OMG?
TPS/SS?

I think the finals are going to be some combination of ktb/ozone/skt facing each other, depending on how the bracket will work out. if not, then ktb/ozone/skt vs omg. c9 might make it to the semis if they get a good matchup, fnatic will get out of groups and lose in quarterfinals. gambit is good but not as consistent as they were in s2.

Gambit Gaming
NaJin Black Sword
GamingGear.eu
Team Mineski

are in so far.
i dont expect vulcun to do anything decent even if they enter worlds lol
clg/tsm gonna be the hottest,I guess clg will take that but i'm kinda biased :/
lemondogs wont do much in worlds tbh and fnatic will be able to go far.... i dont expect gambit to do so well
gg.eu and mineski won't do much either. no idea who will win though,tbh korea seems pretty overrated,i think they're ahead of others but not like they'll stomp them as hard as people make it out

One of CJ teams is probably gonna make it. Frost is the most consistent team in competitive LoL, and Blaze just needs Ambition to pull himself together.
SK T1 are overhyped just like in Spring season, but are definitely one of the best teams in the world.

Fnatic can play the map and control the objectives almost as well as Koreans, they just have the same problem as KT Bullets - one week the preform like team that can win World finals and another week like they can lose to challenger team.

From NA, it's probably gonna be C9, Vulcun and CLG. TSM seems to have so much problems in and outside of the game.

Frost can potentially still make it if they make it through regionals, but I wouldn't say that they're as consistent as people give them credit for. I think teams have figured out by now that target banning Madlife is the only way to deal with him. Also, CloudTemplar has bad earlygame impact, and the midlane issue with Frost is still there. Rapidstar is very inconsistent and GBM is subpar on everything except Orianna. How far Frost can go depends mostly on how hard Madlife and Shy can carry them and also whether they can get off good teamfights or picks (they are one of, if not the scariest teamfighting teams in the world). A huge reason they got 3-0'd by KTB is because InSec flat out beat Shy in all three games and they also took away Thresh, Blitz and Sona from Madlife every game.

I think if KTB play vs SKT like they did vs Frost, it will be an easy 3-0 or 3-1 win for them and they will go to worlds, and the third spot is a tossup between Ozone, Blaze and SKT in the regional qualifier.

If SKT wins against KTB, SKT will get the second worlds spot and again the third spot is a tossup.

The Korean system is really weird imo, they should have straight playoffs instead of using circuit points.

I'm really hoping that CLG will make to worlds, but I'm pretty sure that they won't do well there..

Also, i'm sad to see EG kicked from the worlds D: at least, GMB and Fnatic are in... let's see what LD have to show

Chinese/Korean teams are the strongest by now imo, but i don't know much about them, but as far as i know OMG has been stomping almost every game

Frost has made it to at least semifinals of every tournament they took part in. That's a fact, no other team in League of Legends comes close to this.

It's not. Even in Korea, you could see top teams losing fights despite being 10k gold ahead of the enemy, throwing games at Baron, a lot of bad TF ults and funny mistakes by best players Korea has to offer (dade's teleport in middle of SK T1 just to flash away comes to mind)...

LCS system sux, circuit system is by far more dynamic

In lcs you can go like 0-10 in the first 5 weeks, but if you are at least 6 you go to the playoffs l0l

Do you think frost will win regionals? And yes, it's better than the lcs system but still flawed. Do you really think najin sword deserves to go more than ozone, blaze, frost, ktb or skt? Because three of those five will not get to go.

It's very hard to predict regionals, but I think that either Frost or Blaze will take that last spot.

That's a good question. NaJin, while definitely not good as KT Bullets right now, won something in Winter, Spring and Summer. Personally, I'd rather go with that than with chance of Cloud 9 not going to World's after stomping every other team in region except Vulcun for 9 weeks.
If it was up to me, Korea would have one more spot. It's kinda sad that Gaming Gear who lost to bunch of EU challenger teams and MYM who placed last in LCS gets to go on World Championship while Ozone potentially stays home. Taking one spot from EU or NA to give it to KR would work as well.

ADC left about seven minutes in, claiming there was heavy lag. 4v5 win though!
Lux then said to surrender at 20:00 right after that... then we started winning.
Lux and I were ripping people apart left and right. I demolished a Vayne that went top (which is funny to me). Rammus was tanking really well and Nami was hitting every bubble and her ultimate was hitting the entire enemy team. They were actually VERY grouped up in team fights... which is odd because the ultimates from the four of us are all AoE... Why group up? lol.

You shouldn't start ranked after you got 30.

I started rankeds when I considered myself at least decent. And when I did, I was not decent enough. But you should practise a bit more... not a lot, but at least a bit

Tiamat/hydra is pretty common on most melee/ad or aspd top laners. I even get it as a second or even first item as Warwick because top has started to devolve into this split pushing role. They better fix this for season 4.

I hate split pushing. It's a cheap strategy and it's sad that it is even viable in competitive play at all.

That's why I wrote "botrk+tiamat", cuz both of them are viable items, but you should not buy both of`em. That doesn't make sense.

I wouldn't on darius (I know thats the point of your post I'm not ignoring that), but on a bruiser that scales well with attack speed hell yeah I would. They would have to send 2-3 people to stop your split push because you can just run away with botrk active. While that happens your team is taking dragon or taking turrets elsewhere. Attack speed with tiamat passive is not bad at all. Also botrk pretty much makes Warwick the ultimate 1v1 king so yes botrk+ hydra is viable on stuff.

See how cheap split pushing is? Only real way to counter it is to counter split push.

Or they'll fark you team 5vs4(so easy if they have strong initiate abilities like malph's ult) and do a baserun.

Easier said than done.

Even silver players know to not engage 4v5. Half of this split pushing non sense I see is from diamond 1 streams and even recent tourneys. If it was that easy to deal with it wouldn't be a viable strat now would it? Also proxy singed and AP trnd would have never been nerfed if it was so easy to "just force a fight" and base race.

It was more of a dear diary post. D: I don't like the rewards at all even though a free 6300 champion would be nice. If you don't own Elise you will get her for free when you get gold+. Doesn't mean they are bad rewards. I just don't like them and think it's a waste of effort on my part.

The same thing happened last season for me as well. Got to like 1460-1470 elo saw rewards weren't great and stopped playing ranked. I know I can get to gold + easily probably even diamond if I played enough. Problem is solo queue in this game is awful, frustrating, unfun, and makes me hate people more than I should. It's bragging rights in the end anyways and I really have nothing to prove to anyone.

Will try for plat in ranked 5's if my team ever gets online. =\

I would really like for you to elaborate as to why?

So I'm dumb for only wanting to play ranked solo queue for the incentive which is the end of the season rewards? You do realize that is part of the reason why they have season rewards to begin with right? To get more people to play ranked. Turns out I didn't like the rewards as I'm climbing? I stop. If that really bothers you then you have some serious issues.

Not everyone enjoys ranked or even wants to play it. There is nothing wrong with that because it's not a mandatory part of the game. If you only like playing against bots then who cares? People enjoy different aspects of the game. Hence why there is like 5 different game modes. =\

As I said like a millions before in this thread solo queue is a complete joke and it always will be. I'm pretty much about to hit gold (if i keep going) by only playing Warwick a champion that a majority of this games community considers a troll pick. Some people really make this game harder than it seems.

Also you will learn and improve a ton more from playing premade 5's assuming you are seriously playing and not trolling 24/7.

She is also most banned and most picked for pretty much all tourneys this season. Thresh is pretty close too. Makes sense they chose Elise.

The only thing you'll get by rushing to ranked as soon as possible is screwing up your MMR and being placed in Bronze.

The only thing you'll get by rushing to ranked as soon as possible is screwing up your MMR and being placed in Bronze.
Spammed ranked the moment I hitted 30 and got placed silver #RARE #TYBG #SWAG

Lucky you xD
Although tbh, Silver V isn't much better than Bronze anyway

Yeah its like that between every league,

Bronze 1 is better than silver 5, silver 1 than gold 5 etc

This is purely from an attitude perspective though.

My friend tells me I sit at Gold V as long as I can win my next 5 placement matches. I just hate playing ranked because I always get stuck with a mid that feeds because they're not passive enough.

win all 10 = gold 2/3
9 out of 10 = gold 5
8 out of 10 = silver 1/2
7 out of 10 = silver 3
6 out of 10 = silver 4
5 out of 10 = silver 5

and i guess you can guess the rest

it's an estimate; it also depends on how much impact you have on the game

i don't think that you can start gold with 10 wins if you were unranked last season or no more than silver, got some friends who won their 10 games but were silver last season and are still silver now. i was gold last season, i won 8 games/10 and then started gold IV. so its all about your last season elo i guess o_o

The elo system is still used. But now its hidden and called MMR. Your ranking is determimd by the value of your MMR at the time of placement. By default all players have an elo of 1200 before placing. This value changes drasticaly every match because of the formula used to calculate your mmr. The more games you play the slower this value changes. When matches are created the match making system does its best to match two teams of simar skill. So if you're a brand new player at 1200 duo queueing with a gold 5 player (roughly 1500) it is very likely that u will be matched against a team of silver 2-1's because they range from 1350-1450. If you are winning these games the likelyhood of you being placed into a high division is very likely because when your current rating is increased according to the value of the team you just beat.
This is to be compared to queueing alone or queueing with players that are currently ranked lower than the default elo. Winning these games will increase your MMR at a slower rate because the closer you are to the average skill level of the rest of the players in the match the closer the values are when calculating differences.

TLDR: its all about who you play with when placing. If you really care about where your going to end up make a friend and win some games

Ps: sorry if this is difficult to read, I'm posting it from my phone in class.

Your ranking from the previous season has a heavy impact on it as well since it was a soft reset not a hard reset.

I lost 6 out of my 10 games and got put into silver 4, but I retained my MMR from the previous season. Which is why I got like 50-65 lp per win in silver 4 and ended up skipping silver 3 all together when i was promoted.

If you were diamond in season 2 you should have never have been placed anything lower than gold even if you lost all 10 of your placements.

where you place in placement matches is entirely dependent on your MMR and others' MMR. You can go 10/0 and still get placed in silver 1. Or you can go 10/0 and get placed into gold 1. I went 6/4 (which is really bad), and got placed into silver 2, because I was duo queueing with my gold 3 friend.

I actually get carried, I'm currently going 3/2 (lol).

I might have to start playing ranked this weekend, sadly.
