Now the question is does the yasuo scare tsm into banning it. Trist will surely be banned unless they plan to put turtle on it.

Yasuo was a counterpick. I don't think it'll show up if Dyrus picks another champ.

 

[thestopsign]

oh i just meant that he was looking fidgety and uncomfortable like he had something he wanted to say but didnt know if he should

English is not his first language, he normally talks/acts that way on camera.

 

[AcridMeat]

Quas looks way more comfortable in front of the camera than Xpecial imo. Xpecial's responses at the start were awful.

a late game mid and a late game adc should be able to take each other out in usual situations so when you got a mid that can't even kill or even chunk more then 15% of a top's hp you have a 1 comp threat (assume your adc can do damage as well) you auto lose

my ode to Ori hatred

 

[TharpDaddy]

CLG has a pretty immense champ pool to ban out. You can't give Double Kalista or Trist really. Alistar is a good ban against Aphro. Then you have many options on banning out Xmithie and Zion.

I want to see TSM ban/pick out Xmithie entirely, force them to come up with something less comfortable for him. If they can make it a 4v5 they have a much better chance of winning. I'm betting CLG prepped for that though, I think Xmithie probably has put a lot of time in on Elise lately to back up his Grag and Ekko pool.

With CLG on red side this time I don't think TSM could risk banning 3 junglers. CLG would be able to grab so many high priority picks on their first pick rotation. I don't think TSM's bans were the problem, their play was.

Yeah but tsm play the same comp they haven't show anything else all season. If Mao is banned as well as say shen what can dyrus play? Olaf doesn't make sense in every comp. I just think turtle and dyrus have a very predictable pool and may not be able to deal with certain match ups.

 

[brian!]

i dont think quas is one thing or another, he certainly seemed pretty confident when he talked

jus wanted to make a kanye west joke

 

[Stone Ocean]

Bjerg needs to use his super secret totes not Diana champ

 

[Type2]

I like both teams bans better this draft. Tsm gonna draft towards bjerg now.

 

[TharpDaddy]

Jinx is the only champ I feel WT looks impressive on. Smart of CLG to take it.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Counterpick the top would be really smart.

 

[NormalFish]

I believe in you aphromoo

 

[Type2]

Bjerg maw this time. Might be flex for turtle but the disengage is coming.

 

[Mister Negative]

I want to see doublelift on vayne

the crowd would go fuckin nuts

 

[Prototype Viktor]

time for bjerg to lose by picking Yasuo

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Top bard

 

[Leezard]

Leave Viktor up all day, what can go wrong.

 

[NSESN]

IDK, i think Yasuo mid is scarier tha Top because it seems harder to shut him down.

 

[thestopsign]

Scary comp from TSM. If they get ahead they will stay ahead. Zion does well on Gnar typically, I think a lot of the game might come down to him.

 

[Type2]

Naut is perfect against jinx. Xsmithie will probably using barrel to disengage most of the time. Viktor gonna put he hurt on once again.

 

[Nekofrog]

i dont understand putting turtle, one of the worst positioning "top" ADCs, on an immobile carry like Kog without a front line like they have in this game. like WTF why would you ever put him on Kog with a nid/ori in game 1

I don't think Ali can save turtle lol. The Ekko w may be enough.

*Aphro, I believe in moo.

It's the good old "If the Koreans can do it, why can't we?" without understanding their lower quality players.

 

[Mister Negative]

Naut is perfect against jinx. Xsmithie will probably using barrel to disengage most of the time. Viktor gonna put he hurt on once again.

gonna be a polar opposite of last game. lots of disengage for double on the jinx.

 

[Imperfected]

Jatt, Jinx doesn't take towers that fast early anymore. A lot of her attack speed got pushed off into late-game.

 

[ChaosZeroX]

God I hope CLG beats TSM.

 

[Nekofrog]

RIP

 

[Type2]

CLG mashing tsm with rotatoes

 

[thestopsign]

CLG looks godlike in the first 5-10 minutes of games.

 

[Nekofrog]

my theory for why everyone uses zion's real name, even casters, is cause his name is so fun to say. darshawn.

 

[TharpDaddy]

Jatt, Jinx doesn't take towers that fast early anymore. A lot of her attack speed got pushed off into late-game.

When fully stacked even at early levels you still end up with more attack speed than most adc carries. It's not as significant as it used to be but it's still something.

my theory for why everyone uses zion's real name, even casters, is cause his name is so fun to say. darshawn.

He has a great name. He should change his name to just Darshawn next season like Wizfujin -> Apollo.

 

[Nekofrog]

HOLY SHIT THAT TP MEGAGNAR

 

[Shining Sunshine]

omg mega-gnar teleport ulti

crazy timing

 

[Imperfected]

Guys I think Santorin might not be a very good player.

 

[thestopsign]

DARSHAN!!

Nice plays by Rush Hour before hand too.

 

[Macattk15]

This game is over.

 

[Mister Negative]

remember when zion was on dig

good times

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Guys I think Santorin might not be a very good player.

He's not Amazing, and he's not amazing.

 

[Roybr]

Guys I think Santorin might not be a very good player.

But he is the rookie of last split!

 

[Type2]

I wish some pink hair dye was on the line for Reggie or maybe some rubber ducky face paint

 

[Macattk15]

If they were planning to do a Yasuo comp ... why the fuck did they pick Ekko 2nd and not Gragas?

 

[TharpDaddy]

TSM just seems outclassed in almost every lane. Pobelter is even doing better than Bjerg. Granted it's only 11 minutes into the 2nd game of a best of five but TSM's style of "suck early win late" doesn't look like it'll work against CLG.

 

[Mister Negative]

exhibit A

 

[Tizoc]

Dat failed ult.

 

[Omnicent]

let the throws begin

 

[clemenx]

Lol what a fun fight.

Sad trombone at that rocket.

 

[Imperfected]

Yasuo just does so much if he's able to show up late to a fight when all the CDs are gone. He just does way more than most champions in a split-up brawl.

 

[Nekofrog]

HOLY SHIT DARSHAN GOT MOVES LIKE JAGGER
