LOCK//IN TOP 8 -

  • LEVIATIAN/100T/TALON - Failed to qualify
  • NAVI - Grouped
  • DRX/LOUD - Struggling

LOCK//IN FIRST ROUNDED TEAMS -

  • Liquid - Beat Fraudnatic and became EMEA first Seed

  • PRX - Beat frauds DRX and became APAC first Seed

  • EDG - Eliminated NAVI/T1, close match vs Liquid

  • EG(Second Rounded) - Owning

Morale of the story - SENTINELS were shit at LOCK//IN, and also in regular season.

Even riot said it wasn't supposed to be a super competitive Tournament, its to showcase all the teams. You have to remember so many teams were new and had like less than a month of actual practice. Still its a pretty sick tournament where its one game and you're done type of deal so I wouldn't say its meaningless. It does make it really hype and everyone got to see all the pros play in lan.

I am not complaining. Just saying it's not on the same plane as Masters and Champions.

At Lock-In, some teams had new rosters with not much prep time.
After Lock-In (and during the season), teams got the time needed to improve.
Bro doesn't know time exists and teams can improve ๐Ÿ’€

That's why it's not a major.. You literally just typed out my exact point.
In majors

  • You don't automatically qualify for it
  • You don't play your first officials right at that event
  • Riot itself know that and this didn't have Lower Brackets. They themselves said "This is an exhibition tournament to present all the franchised teams".
  • Cry More.

My point is that you can't say Lock-In was meaningless using the teams performances as the only argument(#1)

The 3 arguments you make here (#11) are better
