Playoff Predictions

Well these are my predictions for playoffs. 

The first game is between Dignitas and Phoenix1 and i think Phoenix 1 will take the win here and play against Cloud 9.

The second game is between Fly Quest and Counter Logic Gaming. Counter Logic Gaming will win this one and go to play against Team Solo Mid.

So the following week will be Cloud 9 vs Pheonix1 and this one can go either way, but i think Cloud9 will win they have more experience then Phoenix1 does.

Then Counter Logic Gaming vs Team Solo Mid will be in TSM’s favor because they just look undefeatable even by their former rivals of CLG.

So i think Finals will be Cloud9 and Team Solo Mid again. This year i think that Cloud 9 does stand a chance to beat TSM especially with how TSM Svenskeren has been performing and TSM Wildturtle if these two dont step up they will definetly struggle against the Cloud9 Squad. But im going to have to give the edge to TSM.

I think TSM will win the 2017 NALCS Spring Split Championship.

Week 9 - Now Its Time For Playoffs!!

So the regular season is over and looks like we have our 6 teams that will be competing in playoffs.

We also have our two teams that will be playing in the promotion tournament in hopes of keeping their spot in the NALCS. Team Liquid will be playing EUnited first and Team Envy will be playing against Gold Coin United. Both of these teams have a lot to prove and want to keep thier LCS spot and not give it to one of these challenger teams.

The Upset

Can anyone actually believe what happened on the second day of play in week 9. I know that i certainly can not believe it all of the TSM fans must be in complete and utter shock as the 9th place team takes down the KINGS of North America TSM. The score was 1-2 and we have to give props to Doublelift and Team Liquid for taking down a giant. This is the step in the right direction from TL fans and the TL organization lets hope that we can continue to see that top level of play.

The last regular season week.

Week 9 started on Friday with two games between C9 & DIG, also EchoFox and Fly Quest. Both of these games went as everyone would expect them to go. With C9 picking up the win and Fly Quest picking up their win.

Week 8 TSM looks like they are untouchable in that first place spot. Maybe Pheonix1 can make a move for the 2nd place and take it from C9

CLG

Counter Logic Gaming off the back of a 2-0 week have now received their fourth place spot. Is the CLG from last spring back are they going to win it all and go back to MSI. If any team can make it into the finals of playoffs and take down TSM it will be CLG they have shown they can do it before lets see it again CLG

The Fall of Fly Quest

Week 8 has definitely been a struggle for Fly Quest and their fans as they have lost both of their games this week to TSM and CLG. Fly Quest has now moved down to the 7th place spot. It seems like in the beginning of the split Fly was dominant but they haven't appeared to get better since then, like all the other teams have.

Immortals Live and Die by Dardoch

Immortals has taken down Cloud 9. I feel like the story line from the games was all Dardoch or Contractz putting the team on their backs. However Joshua "Dardoch" Hartnett was able to pull out the victory for his team this week. This is not good for C9 fans as we head closer into finals if their losing to a middle tier team this might not be their season. However Immortals look like if Dardoch isn’t having a good game Immortals will not get the win.

Challenger Series Finals

Between week 7 and 8 of the NALCS we had the finals for Challenger Series. This years finals was between two new NACS teams, Gold Coin United and EUnited. Both these rosters have some big names especially GCU they have LoL big shots like Madlife, Santorin and Fenix. EUN has some well known names to like Gilius and Fox, coming over from the EULCS. However Gold Cold United ended up taking the victory over EUnited with a score of 3-1. Both these teams will be going to the promotional tournament in hopes of making it into the NALCS.

Week 7

TSM moves to first after Cloud9 lose to CLG.

Team Liquid and Team Envy still at the bottom of the standings.

Fly Quest VS Phoenix1

This week put FQ vs P1 in the battle to claim the third place spot. Looks like Phoenix1 came out on top of that one as the went 2-0 this week. While Fly Quest has dropped down to 4th place. Seems as of now Phoenix1 has a solid hold onto the third place spot. Can CLG or Immortals make a run at that third place sport.

Week 7 Bringing back the Doublelift

Yilliang ‘Doublelift’ Peng has come back to the LCS no longer on his old 1st Place team he is now on the last place team hoping that he can keep Team Liquid away from the relegation tournament. Lets hope the Doublelift is still in form and can perform for his new team.

Doublelift has often been considered to be the best ADC in North America and some people say he contests the position for best ADC in the world. Will this break that he took hinder that progress towards the best ADC in the world?

The Giants of NA

Week 6 for the NALCS was dominated once again by the top two teams Cloud9 and TSM. At this point in time these teams look untouchable by the middle tier teams.

Rise of Midlet

Week 6 of the NALCS had some shocking news Team Liquids AD Carry Gwang-jin “Piglet” Chae switched roles to the Mid Lane. Piglet has won a world championship with his AD Carry play and now time will tell if Piglet can get back on form in his new position. Or will this switch over to the mid lane hinder TL even more then before.
