It's actually a pretty big upset that KOO made the Finals, before the tournament people were talking about KOO being significantly worse than KT.

Did anyone in the pick'em league have KOO in the finals?

I'm happy for KOO, they've been my favorite Korean team all year and they vastly outplayed my favorite EU team. I wish it could have gone more games but that last match was just a one way ticket to pound town.

Stat rosa pristina nomine, nomina nuda tenemus.
I had KOO losing to KT and KT losing to FNC in my pick'em lol.

But I think we can say that FNC is a top 4 team this year (SKT > KOO > FNC/KT > Rest of Korea / China / AHQ). Better results than last year at the very least.

SKT are so much better than everyone else that it's actually boring. Honestly OGN this split wasn't even very entertaining except for games between the lower tier teams.

Yeah this is gonna be pretty boring and totally expected. Like without wacky one liners what other regions have to do to be on the same competitive level as Korean teams? Did this worlds seem like western teams are getting closer? Or same as always?

KOO should go back to wearing cardigans or bunny ears or w/e if they want any hope to defeat SKT

China needs to change their practice / coaching culture. NA and EU need at least BO2 and more time. Koreas infrastructure is holding them up. I don't think the west is any closer than they were before, I mean NA went 0-10 in the second week. The international teams being viable is the biggest takeaway this year I think

We can talk about the Korean guys who retired to China instead if it gets you to ease up off the gas pedal for a few pages.
