  5. Are some of these teams legit or just reusing names? Or are they sponsors? Like I thought AAA disbanded?

  6. Off the top of my head, I think it was something along the lines of basically getting a new roster, however don't quote me on that.

  9. We've seen at least half the European teams already play in big tournaments. Including some of the online qualifier teams. That just goes to show how far behind and how little competition America really has.

  11. Wow... I remember when against all authority played Fnatic for the S1 championships... wondered where they had been in the last year and here they are having to go through all this qualifying. I hope they return to being a strong team again.

  12. Hey all, this island near Ionia is awesome! You should come to this island, Darius, that "blonde demacian girl" isnt here, but there are lots of good girls. I can give an VIP invite to you and to your brother, so he can try to convert himself. And Lee Sin, I dont know if Irelia sent it to me, I just got one "banner" by mail with the prices. I don't know if Irelia is here, this island is bigger than it looks. But I got one "free standard invite" by buying a VIP one, I can give it to you, you will have access to everywhere on the island, but not to everyone.(only a few girls) But... After this can you tell to a friend of mine in Zaun about that thing you did that destroyed an entire city?

  20. anyone know if former CLG.EU still qualified? in a previous S@20 post, it was mentioned EG MIGHT be taking them and they'd have already qualified for S3, but i don't see them on the LP pictures, will it be updated once they join a team? would be major disappointed to not see the turtlemasters in s3 :(
