First game and C9 didn't make us wait when C9 Jensen took FIrst Blood against AFC Kuro and then again a solo kill and again killing Zayah, this game got carried hard by him and C9 Svenskeren even with the spilling problem that and that WEIRD Victor top pick by AFC
Ok, AFC repeated the Viktor top pick... ok, at least AFC Kuro seemed better and the game wasn't so one-sided, in fact this game went good for the Korean squad but C9 had an ace under their sleeve, a sixth player THE BLUE BUFF and after a couple of picks in the jungle the NA team took control, Baron and the game placeing themselves in match point
This game began with a huge mistake by AFC Spirit on Gragas invading the jungle, but in spite of that it was closer, the Korean team took advantage of several mistakes by C9 but everything changed when 2v5 C9 Jensen and C9 Licorice on Ornn stole the Baron with an auto-attack... yes an auto-attack this put them in the fight again and after several teamfights they knocked out the last Korean team from Worlds... WAIT!!! WHAT?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! MY KOREAN TEAMS T_T

The first game between FNC and EDG was a statement of how aggressive can be the Chinese teams, they didn't care about the great macro play nor the objective control, they took fight after fight and the European team was Aced time and time again, poor fellas, they got punched hard and a lot
FNC needed to bounce back and they locked in Viktor top for FNC Bwipo... oh crap... Well, it looks like FNC Caps didn't care because he took the game and carried it outplay after outplay on Irelia I smell a nerf but I think the plan was to keep Viktor dead so FNC Bwipo could shotcall properly
Last time was FNC Caps turn to carry, now he's the "shotcaller", and FNC Rekkles was the carry, EDG fought hard but I guess it was too hard when EDG iBoy used Killer Instinct to place himself head first in the middle of five members of FNC and instantly die, after a Baron steal from the Chinese team that went wrong FNC won the game getting just a match closer to go to semifinals
EDG looked on fire in game 4 looking to take the series to a game 5, but after a bunch of scrappy and weird teamfights FNC was in control again, the Chinese squad was doomed after a skirmish in the Baron Pit where the lost most of their team and the Baron Buff, from here the European team just had to push their way to victory and the semifinals
Well yeah... the korean hype train got to a full stop, is the first time since 2013 that all Korean teams are disqualified and is the first time a NA team goes to semifinals, another first is that a Western team will be in the finals sinces S1, a lot of hype for these guys and well deserved... Just wait until SKT Faker comes back... just wait guys...
