The only real change I would do on the Korean team is Pray for Imp. Faker might be the better player between him and Ambition, but you don't need four guys trying to make plays. Ambition fits perfectly in the team composition, and he can be the 4th option behind Insec, Pray and Shy. I think Flame is a better player than Shy, and he reportedly dominates Shy in practice, but they're probably the two best top laners in the world, and with Shy having the more international experience, can't really complain. I just think Imp would fit the Korean team better, and he carried his team to the semifinals. Pray had an off season and wasn't that great after a coming out party in the winter season.
Hoping for NA/EU in loser's bracket, and I want to see a Korea vs. China final.

Not exactly true..

I feel like the European team could have a lot of potential to win against Korea if it wasn't for the fact that Shy is an absolute monster. Alex/Diamondprox are solid and Edward/Yellowpete should be fine against Pray/Madlife. If Soaz can hold his own against Shy (in terms of contribution to team if not directly head-to-head in lane) Europe they might be able to upset. Realistically I think that Shy and Insec are going to stomp over everybody though.

EDIT: Fixed, sorry for the confusion guys.

SEA is yet to be highly rated by any community for this tournament yet. I guess we'll see, though from the 'hype video' about them by Riot it seems like they haven't been able to practice together a lot so that might be key.
Either way: I'm looking forward to some sick games =D

I'm excited about the skills map as a tool for future use. Imagine if it was actually useful for practice, so much potential if they make a few 'scenario' maps, even of they are only made available to lcs teams. Like, if a team wants to focus on tea fighting, or late game play, then they could load up a scenario where the game state is a typical game, 40 mins in. Some may say it wouldn't be that useful, but it seems a whole lot more efficient and targetted than current methods.
