NOTE: I am very lazy and rarely update this anymore. For up to date info the best thing to do is probably make a post asking.
This is a thread for discussion of competitive League of Legends events, teams, and matches.

I'm a bro and I approve this thread.
Why is the stream quality so bad?
The fact that the number of games is so large for the group play and we get to watch one of the games a night or so is just infuriating. Some genuinely good teams that we don't get to see a lot of playing and will not be seen.
Infuriating is hyperbolic.
No commentary streaming at least doesn't have latency between audio and video.
Cool thread Fedora.
Regarding the format of tournament reporting, I think I prefer the style of letting multiple people post updates as things happen. It means if you come along a little late, you can follow chronologically. Summarising everything into a single post for posterity is also a great idea.
I love the RainMan trash bag challenge. Setting goals is the key to success!
THE TRASH MAN
Watched a couple of his trash bag games... plenty of teemo top and mid sion. The guy crapped on TreeEskimo/Tryndamere top so badly that he kept getting 3-man ganked by jungle/mid =D
Thanks for putting all of this info together!
I have one strange question: Who's the gumpy looking guy with long hair and a mustache that's on one of the top teams? He was briefly a meme on r/league I think.
Ah, yes. That guy's appearance cracks me up, for some reason.
The no commentary no lag stream is up. CDE vs. Dignitas.

Game 1
cde: leblanc, singed, alistar, lee sin, graves
dignitas: gp, morgana, rumble, janna, ezreal
Result:
Dignitas pulls way ahead in laning phase, showing off their greater experience as a team. Wins it handily
Game 2
bans ryze, yorick, rumble, kass, sona, karth
CDE: Graves, Udyr, Soraka, gragas, Lee sin
Dignitas: gp, janna, vayne, morgana, fizz
Edit: Why run ads during champ select?! Crazy WCG, outdoing the bad streaming day after day.
Is gp the jungler for dignitas? My attempts at jungling with him have been pretty disasterous. Wish I could watch these, curse you work!
Also thanks for puting this thread together Fedora!
I only saw the first game of Canada v. Poland, but holy cow was that lopsided. I was watching Nhat Nguyen commentate, and he did a great job when Travis wasn't trying to interrupt him.
CLG got whipped up on by Poland, really? I'd love to see those matches.
Feds, you are the man.
Jesus, Karthus is a freakin wrecking ball right now.
My work internet came back up just in time for me to watch the last minute of that game =/
