Vulcun stands no chance. If they lose one game, they always start struggling for the next few games. They can't afford that during the groups. Gambit is pretty much already in semi, they just need to win 2 out of the remaining 4 to cinch it.
Predictions are SKT and OMG out of group A and GMB/FNC/SSO who get out of group B.
Group B probably has the most uncertain outcome, but it's still going to be two of those three. Either VUL needs to get a massive kick in the ass to pick up their shit, or they're gonna come out center pack.

I can't see Vulcun beating any of the big 3 teams in that group unless they have another spectacularly good level 1 and manage to snowball. Ozone seems to have massively underestimated the Western teams and they're really paying the price.
I wouldn't count Lemondogs out of group A yet. I don't think they were particularly confident going into the SKT1 game and felt that they needed to surprise them with some strange picks. Perhaps they will see the shenanigans going on in group B and think to themselves "well if they can do it, so can we!". Some huge games for them tonight, OMG and TSM. If they win both of those they are in a REALLY good position.
It would be a lie to say I hate saying I told you so. But yeah, I did say OMG were a threat and now I feel so smug.

SKT already got 2 of their matches against top contenders for group A and won against LD and lost against OMG. Statistically speaking, since LD got their win against GG, SKT has a smaller mountain to climb to get out of groups, because let's face it: regi is gonna get dumpstered and GG isn't the wild card that TPA was in s2, while LD still has to play their OMG match, and regi is going to get dumpstered.

Group A
First seed: OMG
Second seed: SKT T1
Group B
First seed: FNC
Second Seed: GMB
Vulcan's throws against Ozone, extremely weak performance against GMB and struggling match against Mineski is going to make it tough for them to bounce back. It's things like these you can't do while trying to be 1 out of 2 of the best teams in your group.

In other news, kev1n and hyrqbot left SK and joined NiP. It's hard to tell exactly what is happening, Nyph has been playing with another ranked team, SK might be looking to pick up 2 of those players; whiteknight (#1 in EU challenger tier, and the guy who replaced Creaton when he broke his hand) and Saphe (another challenger tier player, don't know of any previous teams).
CJ Entus are rumoured to be having a "roster reshuffle" and flame has been playing a LOT of mid lane champions in solo queue which means that there is a possible superteam being formed with shy, flame and madlife, as well as some other cherry picked players.
