Fuck riot

maybe kickoff was fluke idk but if SEN dont qual bc of this bullshit format even with 4-5 wins then im going to agree that madrid was a fluke

theres no doubt madrid was a fluke

xd

If nrg doesnt qualify for shanghai, you're gonna yap about shanghai being a fluke

why would u call it a fluke when its the format that's fucking them .. lmaoo what is that logic.. sen has 2 clean 2-0 wins and in the match they lost it went 17-19/11-13.

you cant call a event a fluke lmao, obv any tournament later in the year will be tougher its the same thing every year, sen was just ahead of everyone and had plenty of prep time before others, they also have the most film on them out of any team so its easier to anti strat them ( losing to lev ) but sen is still top 3 in Americas and looks like theyll finish that way, maybe not number 1 but if you say they arent top 3 thats pure hate.

problem with kickoff for most vlr people was single elim playoffs to qualify for madrid, but that single elim wasn't partial to any of the two teams playing; 1 match to qualify for the next game is fair to both teams, whoever shows up better wins. Now for the stage 1 format(for americas rn) one team in group alpha can have more than 2 wins and still unable to qualify for play-offs if group omega has 3 teams with 2 wins, but then again group omega gets to play one less match compared to group alpha...
