    The LPL casters have not been invited to join the commentary team.

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 06:25 AM PDT

    According to Hysterics https://twitter.com/hystericscasts/status/1305858488220946432?s=21

    I find it really absurd that in the tournament hosted in China with LPL teams being considered as a tournament favorites, the casters of this region don't get an invite.

    Are we really going to listen yet again to casters from other region talking like they've been following the LPL for years when it's pretty evident they just saw a couple of VODs?

    What a silly decision.

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 10:10 AM PDT

    Season 1 Group A: EpiK Gamer, Against all Authority, Fnatic, Pacific eSports. Fnatic went on to play CLG, Epik and aAa. Group B: TSM, CLG, Team GAMED.DE, Xan. TSM went on to play Against all authority and EpiK Gamer only.
    Season 2 Fnatic did not qualify for worlds. TSM played vs Azubu Frost in the Q.F
    Season 3 Group B: Fnatic, Gambit, Samsung Ozone, Team Vulcan, Mineski. Fnatic advanced. Group A: SKT, OMG, Lemondogs, TSM, GamingGear.eu. TSM did not make it out of groups.

    Astralis Group to merge all activities and teams into the Astralis brand, including their LEC team Origen

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 01:14 AM PDT

    It feels weird to see NA casters do the groups draw while LEC has a studio they can use

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 05:19 AM PDT

    I'm looking at the draw show and am surprised they aren't using the LEC studio instead of the shitty webcam and sound setup from the LCS's remote setup. Is there are a reason the LEC isn't doing this? Because right now it feels like a suboptimal way to do the draw show. If they really wanted to have LCS talent on there also they could let them call in like the LEC did with players all season.

    And just to be clear, this is not about LCS vs LEC or anything. If the roles were reversed I'd feel the same.

    Edit: When thinking about it they also have Frosk to discuss the LPL and YamatoCannon is in Europe right now to talk about LCK seeds. I've got a bad feeling about the Worlds cast right now...

    Edit2: The broadcast plan doesn't actually look too bad, they will be using the LEC studio for most things apart from casting.

    Edit3: So this kinda blew up and seems the LEC crew is on holiday. And I have to say LCS production looked the best it has all year. Hope they let the LCS team cast the games that are later on the day during Worlds, so they don't have to roll out of bed in front of the camera in the middle of the night.

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 07:23 AM PDT

    Hey everyone, I am back for this year's worlds. I haven't found much salt yet, as it was mostly them laughing at the tweets from Finn and Larssen, but I'm sure that'll change. I also found that they call YamatoCannon TomatoCannon. Anyway, see you again on the next one.

    Can Finn even cs vs Damwon? He 100% gets put on a tank and is told to survive I feel like he's gonna get 3~4 cs/min

    올해 담원까지 안되면 LCK는 답이없는거다

    If Damwon can't do it this year, LCK is doomed.

    3팀 다 8강은 갈듯하다 d조는 drx라 불안한거임

    Looks like all 3 teams will make it to playoffs. Group D is only iffy because its DRX

    Lcs 이번엔 분발좀 해봐라

    New Ultimate skin will belongs to a popular female marksman

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 10:27 AM PDT

    Weibo screenshot

    It was posted by official weibo and has been deleted.

    According to this weibo, a popular marksman will get the new ultimate skin. And they refer to this champion as "she" in the passage, so it must be a female champion.

    Chinese Reactions on group draw

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 07:31 AM PDT

    Selecting top three most upvoted comments from each thread:

    https://bbs.hupu.com/37950264.html

    Title: Twitter:This is TSM's greatest chance of advancing from group stage

    ¡ǝp ƃuǝɥs uɐɥz ǝʞ nq ᴉɥs pפ˥ uǝɯ oʍ (Explanation: Classic LGD God'v meme, pinyin of noone could beat us in reverse direction)

    Group C is group of death and life at the same time

    It's so similar to s7: WE,TSM,MSF,FW in one group, In the end, TSM get dragged by 0-5 FW , lose to Misfits in tiebreaker

    https://bbs.hupu.com/37949898.html

    Everyone thinks LGD gonna be happy after first two rounds, then instant attitude change in the third round

    Group C is too ruthless, SN laughing while LGD crying[chinese slang, hard to translate]

    Actually not bad for JDG, they can only meet dwg in finals if both advance

    https://bbs.hupu.com/37950223.html

    Title: Among four lpl teams, who will advance in your opinion?

    tes first place ofc,advance shouldn't be too hard for sn and jdg, the only suspense is in group C which LGD in

    Replying to :Actually sn and jdg is quite hard to say,especially jd -> jdg can't beat these two noobs? don't joke, jdg can actually beat dwg.

    Replyint to the first comment: Don't conclude too early, last year rng lose to their son,fnc

    https://bbs.hupu.com/37949844.html

    After the draw, every team in group c think that they can advance, that is actually quite scary if you think about it close

    group c gonna be fun

    group c actually is fun, if LGD makes it, the gap gonna be small, actual group of death

    https://bbs.hupu.com/37950577.html

    Title: EU casters: The god of bo1 gonna smash dwg and jdg

    Are eu teams all troller?

    group b is also group of death, don't underestimate rogue, their carries are good, top/jg are roleplayer

    rogue midlaner's quote seems quite familiar...

    https://bbs.hupu.com/37950884.html

    Title: MAD adc said that he will make into group d and smash deft and jkl

    Culture is actually different, chinese perfers humble but not confident

    Western brothers are so confident, I couldn't image xiye saying he will smash bdd,bjergson and sour king(nemesis).

    If you got balls, play sona against TES

    Edit: fixed spelling mistakes

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 08:07 AM PDT

    It's pretty crazy that teleporting botlane and giving your toplane opponent 3+ plates so you can no longer 1v1 him, is still the correct play

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 03:03 AM PDT

    Literally the biggest bitch move you can make. Especially because you usually want your adc to get the kills.

    So you come back to lane after your opponent has recalled to spend his plate gold and can no longer fight him. And as he flexes his now completed item and pushes you under tower, you flash a bloody smile, for you have accomplished the only important objective in the game - get your botlane ahead.

    Your smile grows wider as the enemy Nunu jungle snowballs happily under your tower for the obvious dive. None of this matters, you think maliciously, for you have already won the game.

    you have been slain

    [BUG] Malphite and the not so unstoppable force

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 04:55 AM PDT

    I come from the future, I've seen how Worlds plays out.

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 12:16 PM PDT

    Its October 10th, the 7th day of the Worlds 2020 Group Stage, the fateful day that will decide the outcome of Group C.

    LGD has just secured the first seed with their 6th win of the tournament against Fnatic, adding another 9 deaths to Hylissangs tally. Truly a shame, as he was only 3 deaths shy of completing his fifth dozen. The camera pans to Rekkles wiping one last tear off his face, while Selfmade hugs his life-sized Evelynn pillow, mumbling about how unfair it was that she was always banned against him. Not before long, we get into the draft for the tiebreaker game of Group C, GenG vs TSM.

    Both teams had finished at 3-3. TSM convinvingly took down GenG and FNC in the first round robin, however in Week 2 they seemed to be struggling to stand their ground, a surprising twist for NA's representative. GenG, however, came out swinging in Week 2, with their midlaner Bdd suddenly returning to form after a shocking Week 1 performance.

    TSM are on blue side and ban out Ruler's comfort picks, while GenG attack Spica's champion pool by banning Shen, Sett and Graves.

    "They're taunting us!" screams Doublelift. "Soren, don't you see what they're spelling with their bans?" Bjergsen, however, is not listening. He is too busy telling BrokenBlade to first pick his Zilean, which he hasn't been allowed to play all tournament.

    "But wait a minute..." Spica whispers quietly, "They didn't ban Lucian!"

    No red side team had let Lucian get through the first round of bans all tournament long.

    "This wouldn't have happened if they remembered to download the Blitz Esports App before playing", he remarks.

    As BrokenBlade locks in the Toplane Lucian, we hear Doublelift whimpering in the background.

    From here on, the draft goes by without any surprises. Standard comfort for both sides. Until it's TSM's turn to pick their last two champions to round out this draft. DoubleLift locks in the Zilean for Bjergsen, now Biofrost just needs to pick the AD Carry. However, Parth has a different plan. He looks Peter in the eye and says:

    "Do you trust me?"

    Peter nods his head slowly, as he watches Parth walk over to Bio's chair and tells him to pick Kennen. Vincent looks at him in shock.

    "A- Are you sure?" he says, his voice shaking.

    Parth nods. Him and Peter lock eyes one last time before he walks out of the room to get his teams Grubhub delivery.

    3 floors below in the same hotel, Bdd is grinning like a child that just found his favorite candy in the cabinet. He looks over at Life, and Life looks back at him, smiling, as he locks in Viktor.

    Fast forward 30 minutes. TSM and Samsung GenG are locked in a nailbitingly close game. The Koreans have adapted to the NA playstyle and are posturing around Midlane with all 5 members, while TSM, of course, does the same. But then comes the moment we've all been waiting for. Clid engages onto Spica and Biofrost, but at the same time BrokenBlade's Kennen tears through the backline of GenG.

    "WE BUILT DIFFERENT!" he screams, as his teammates secure two more kills.

    "Baron! We have to get Baron!" yells Spica, as he runs towards the purple worm, Bjergsen and Biofrost tailing behind him.

    "Peter! You have to come with us, we have no damage without you!" they cry, but Peter ignores their screams for help.

    "There's just something I gotta do." he says with an earth shattering determination in his voice, as he moves his character towards the Viktor. The Q and Lich Bane empowered Auto immediately chunk him for 80% of his HP. Bdd is laughing to himself, thinking what a fool Doublelift was to not have learnt anything since 2016. He had been studying that particular VOD for weeks now, preparing for this moment. As he casts his Death Ray to obliterate Lucians existance and TSM's hopes, he can't believe his eyes. Lucian flashed the Death Ray and is still alive! After a brief moment of confusion, he gains back his composure and casts his Ultimate. Lucian, now on a sliver of HP, flashes again, out of the Chaos Storm and swiftly lets Viktor feel his wrath. Finally, the past years of saving Flashes had payed off. After 3 years of constant memes, losing two jobs, and bombing out in groups Doublelift had finally redeemed himself. TSM take Baron and end the game less than 3 minutes later.

    All hell breaks lose in the TSM hotel room. They had finally made it out of groups and now get to play the surprise 1st seed from Group B, Rogue, in the Quarterfinals.
