SSG will win when they throw Note 7s at SKT which then explode distracting them at a crucial moment

The prize pool has been upped to $5 million but I still say if they included the Riven skin it would be up to 30 million by now

having just watched HuHi destroy Faker in soloq, I still believe in CLG

Faker isn't all that great tbh. We talked about how weak the NA soloQ ladder is and yet there are still three people above Faker.

Yeah, and febiven has solo'd him multiple times in international play

Here's your hosed up Worlds fact for the day: the prize pool is now at $5 million, up from an initial $2.1 million, all due to the 25% cut taken from Championship Zed and Championship Ward skins for the pot. That's insane.

SKT win 3-0 and Duke plays the series of his life, is my prediction.

Faker is from a time when if you went ham and styled on your opponent once you could effectively do it forever and then go to other lanes and do it there too but that's not the case anymore so you sometimes see him be way too cocky/aggressive in a way the game doesn't support as well anymore but he is still very very good

Literally the first I'm hearing of this, Riot's holding an "All-Mid, All-Star Tournament" in about 15 minutes. I thought it was just regular PTL poo poo but apparently they're throwing a whole carnival. http://watch.na.lolesports.com/en_US/worldchampionship/en "Duane Wade stuck his unicorn horn in my rear end" -Mark Cuban, Primetime League Wow these all-stars...The drummer of Imagine Dragons & Voyboy versus Aphromoo and some other goons.

the fun fact is that even if faker isn't the best player in the world any more skt probably still has three of the others between duke, bengi and wolf (and it's not like blank or pray aren't good either, they just have actual competition like peanut and BUNG)
|
# ? Oct 29, 2016 08:25 |
|
Wolf, Bengi or Duke are not even remotely close to the best players at their positions and Pray is on Rox

Peanut > Ambition > Score > Jankos > Maybe Bengi Smeb, Ssumday, and CuVee are also better than Duke There are a lot of supports better than Wolf right now Bang/Faker are the only two you could put in the running for best in their roles. SKT are great because they have the best coaching staff + shot calling in the game right now, and Bengi has such a fantastic mind for the jungle and so much synergy with Faker that it makes up for him being pretty mediocre mechanically. And I don't know, but I think Faker might be fifth best player right now behind Smeb, Bang, Peanut, and Ambition. RealFoxy fucked around with this message at 09:37 on Oct 29, 2016 |

Lol nah, cuvee isnt better than duke and definitely jankos but maybe even score too are worse than bengi

the best player is the one who is holding up the world title with his team

Faker is still the best player in the world. e: imo, of course. He puts more pressure on the lane than any other midlaner. He has an insanely big champion pool. He plays every type of midlaner well (waveclear, poke, assassin, etc.). You can see it in the matches against Kuro. He knows Kuro is a great Viktor player but he pulls out Ori (which wasn't out of the meta, per say, but which hasn't been played that much) and pushes his poo poo in again and again. He makes mistakes, sure, but he's the most effective combination of aggression and knowing your limits of any player in the game. Sexpansion fucked around with this message at 14:53 on Oct 29, 2016 |

Faker is not the best pro player in the World because of his 1v1 or champion mechanics, he is the best pro player because he has an enormous control over the match and just like his nick implies he is really good at mind games and faking situations to bait the enemies into a bad position. He has good control over everything, from the p&b to the laning phase to the teamfights to the macro war in the match.

Why do people always get upset that prizepools are low? No major sport has great prizepools for their championship games. The superbowl only pays each player on the winning team $100k each. Sports will always be about marketing and sponsorships and not playing for a prize. I understand League people might feel inadequate when they compare themselves to Dota 2 TI, but that's purely groupfunded. The high prize pool and no other stable income kind of ruins the Dota esports scene since it's the only thing that matters all year long so you get weird team moves.

Traditional sports isn't about sponsorships, the vast majority of the money comes from TV broadcast rights. E-sports doesn't have that luxury, so sponsorships and prize pools are a lot more important to them.
