I'm just watching some of the old matches now whilst I wait for it. There's also a schedule here http://esl.tv/channel/esltvlol/

that skin is just a sad excuse of a legendary =(

I quite like it except for the terrible attack animations

Mte. Only reason I haven't bought it.

I think it looks good though.

[NotValidAnymore]

I think people have been spoiled by recent 975 skins being so good.
I didn't hear much complaining when Galio's skin came out, which is pretty much just a red Galio with green spell effects.

I quite like Kayle's new skin.

An enlightening LoL statistics chart!

Very enlightening indeed, but you might want to resize it, it's quite a huge image. And is it just me or is the IEM Katowice stream laggy and the sound desyncs all the time?

Not just you, it laggy as fudge.

[personn5]

Mine hasn't really been laggy at all, but I've seen several people in the comments complain about lag.

[Deleted]

Hmm, my stream isn't laggy at all so far, been pretty good quality and sound is in sync.

Last week were for the teams still trying to qualify for the 1st half of the Season 3 pro circuit in NA.

This week is IEM Katowice. The best of the already pro teams (Azubu Blaze, Gambit Gaming (formerly M5), Curse, etc) playing in a tournament.


Next week is the EU Qualifiers for the EU teams still trying to qualify in S3.

We are still in Preseason before Season 3 so other than money, bragging rights, and ego, this week's tournament I believe has no impact on the Season.

It has seeding points for the next IEM, so that's one thing.

But isn't much else besides the prizes.

AZB raped GMG(former M5), and now it looks like MYM is stomping Crs.NA. I'm surprised how much GMG/M5 has changed, starting from being an absolute wrecking crew, winning all zhe tournamentz and lately they've been doing much worse. And I personally thought Crs.NA would do much better, even with a sub.

EDIT: MYM stomped Crs.NA.

[personn5]

I've never heard of MYM(but I didn't really start watching League tournaments until the season 2 world finals); where are they from, EU or are they some random NA team?

That anti-spoiler editing doesn't work if I read the message from the mail client

They've been a fairly strong EU team for quite some time.

They aren't known very well for whatever reason, but they just dominated crs.

[Creatinebrah]

NA teams

y u so bad

MYM's major tournament results, just as some additional info on top of what Isrozzis already posted.

And Benny, I'm extremely sorry for spoiling the first 2 games of the tournament for you :P

Whatever they are doing right now on ESL_TV is awkward as feck...
