Group A: SSW & Edward
Group B: SHRC & TPA
Group C: SSB & OMG
Group D: C9 & NJWS
^ The gospel. Although, Group C is fucking crazy, anything could happen there. SSB is pretty much a lock to get out but FNC/OMG/LMQ could be a shitshow (though on paper OMG should win, probably). I'm rooting for FNC though.
Alliance hype train is too much, they'll obviously beat Kabum but C9+NJWS will just steamroll them.

I think SHRC is a lock for Group B. Is TPA playing Chawy or Morning mid, because that'll actually make all the difference against TSM

Alliance, TSM, Fnatic, and C9 are ridiculously overhyped
I agree with everyone but C9 in this list, although I wouldn't say TSM are overhyped because nobody actually expects them to make it to the semis

This is laughable. WildTurtle (as you stated), Amazing, and Dyrus are not anywhere close to world class/top tier.
In post 1365 , BROseidon wrote: Metros and balls.
Sneaky is not on the level of deft, deft eu, imp, etc, and lemon's strength is what he brings outside of straight up mechanical skill.
Meteos & Balls are both world class obviously, but Hai/Lemon/Sneaky's synergy comes from the shot calling and rotations/map mechanics. Individual player skill matters less in competitive team games than team synergy. Case in point: Doublelift.
In post 1371 , BROseidon wrote: Dyrus almost always goes even, and he's been doing fine vs Ackerman (who is very clearly a world-caliber player)
Amazing is world calibre on lee and Elise
The only thing Dyrus has going for him is his Renekton play. He had shitty games on any other top laner he tried this season (namely, Gragas, Lulu, and Shyvana). Also, saying he's "going even" in lanes versus the trash top laners in NA LCS doesn't really mean much. And it especially doesn't mean much when tons of games don't even have him GO to lane at the start.

Yes, so you've listed two people out of the 8 teams in the LCS. Seraph isn't actually that good IMO. Balls & Ackerman are the only two I'd consider great top laners in NA, and the rest are all very lackluster.
I don't dislike Dyrus or Turtle as people, wtf is this shit? I just don't think they're as good as others mechanically (since apparently individual mechanics are how we judge a team).

If we were going just off of personalities, TSM would be my favorite team, bar none. Watching them goof around and watching them bond is fantastic. As far as just being of a fan of the team/mechanics, it's gotta be C9, though. They just consistently put on exciting games.

I'm gonna be kind of mean here.
The fact that you didn't say Quas substantially weakens your authority.
Quas was great the couple of Nidalee games I saw him but most games I saw him he was playing Lulu and it was not pretty. Not to mention like I said earlier the meta of top laners roaming with junglers kinda skews the ability to tell how they do in lane
