crazy how rumble came out of nowhere and seems like he's gonna be one of the deciding champions for worlds

my early guess is that worlds champions skins are gonna be (if no repeats are allowed, so no new lee sin): rumble, khazix, yasuu, trist and threshie

Yeah, both teams are definitely making quite some mistakes. The question is, is LMQ stronger than in NA LCS or is OMG worse than usual?

supposedly omg looked pretty bad at lpl playoffs, so this may not be the same omg we saw last year

Ah, I see. I did not expect much from LMQ due to their disappointing performance in NA LCS. The second spot in group C can go to any team, then.

 

[Ferga]

Man I saw that shit coming when their mid game power (Elise and Yasuo) had 2 deaths each but I was hoping for OMG to pull off some amazing team comp play.

But nope.

That baron shit OMG pulled was terrible. Elise gets jumped on by 2 players over baron pit and OMG just let her die for free instead of killing jarvan and thresh since they were split up for a good 5 or so seconds.

Then maokai just Ws onto the syndra instead of setting up the 3 man Yasuo ult.

So hard to watch.

It's like they gave up on decision making for the last 10minutes of that game.

 

[Hazaro]

Rumble Ult seems to deal 99999999 damage which seems good

 

[Musician]

Great... now Rumble isn't my secret weapon any more. Then again, I am pretty bad with him.

 

[zkylon]

yeah omg looked like they struggled against the rumble pick

still lots of ways to go, i really liked omg last year so i hope they turn it around and come up with some good games

 

[KumaJG]

Yay for LMQ!!

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Sindra dominated their mid. Twitch picking off Trist. Rumble's ult melting 4 of their opponents. Not much you can do at that point.

OMG should have splitpushed, but I think they forgot about that and kept teamfighting with a worse comp. :d

LMQ was beasting that game. Great to see. Now we wait for the Kabum upset. :>

You know, I hear people complain about this a lot and I honestly don't see it that much in game. I occasionally play on a low level acct with my friend and his gf, both of whom have just started playing recently, and I don't think I've seen someone rage once.

In ranked I might report someone for being abusive maybe once every 20+ games. Based on my experience, if someone sees people consistently being abusive in chat then either they are instigating something or they have exceptionally thin skin and get offended at any type of criticism.

That's just my experience though, so ymmv.

I was going to start off tonight on Co-op vs. A.I., but I didn't expect the maintenance. I'm going to give it a shot anyways. From hearing the complaints I can't help to picture the abuser literally breaking into someone's house just to punch someone in the face for being horrible at the game.

How did people get the Riot match history o_o

LMQ looking pretty good. What would happen if we get 3 NA teams in the quater finals and 0 EU!?

I think Riot is publishing it somewhere.

You can find the match history of every game in this reddit wiki:

i think in that case there would be 3 teams from NA in the quarter finals and 0 from EU.

Gorilla just flaying Lucian for days

 

[cHinzo]

Kabum losing against Najin Shield. Nothing surprising to see here I guess. :d

 

[CRS]

Thresh Championship II incoming soon.

God damn.

 

[PhillipCostigan]

I'm about to start a lecture and our lecturer doesn't allow laptops.

The Alliance C9 game is next. Rito pls.

 

[Melchior]

That game was hilarious.

 

[Diprosalic]

it's not.

Just make it run on your phone, I did that last week during a boring lecture.

 

[PhillipCostigan]

Oh OMG vs Blue is next

I have to drive home after this anyway so I'll still miss it.

 

[Wolf Akela]

dis early dragon wow

why is this match sooo gooood

 

[Leezard]

SSB is obviously the stronger team here, but OMG appears stronger than in their match against LMQ. I mean, they are behind more than in their match against LMQ, but considering how much stronger of a team SSB should be it's not bad.

 

[Makareu]

9 min in, the laning phase starts. This game is different.

 

[bokn]

Dis match is surprisingly close

Perhaps OMG prepared more for SSB and didn't respect LMQ?

SSB are doing some weird things too.

 

[Leezard]

Perhaps OMG prepared more for SSB and didn't respect LMQ?
.

That might be the case, it feels strange to have OMG vs SSB be about as close as LMQ vs OMG.

 

[zkylon]

this game is pretty insane

already a much better omg

 

[Wolf Akela]

Thresh got burned by hooking Rumble. :lol

 

[bokn]

Ok nevermind

SSB are godly at team fighting

 

[Nekofrog]

cool cant land a charm to save his life

literally

edit: cool dying just because he didnt want to use his ult until it was too late in his own base, with an inner turret still up. jesus. so bad.

 

[Type2]

Yawn* I just woke up for some apple pie vs all.

 

[zkylon]

i feel like san's damage at the end of these games must be super low

 

[bokn]

Those Nami waves

 

[Type2]

Just wanted to say that I told you so on the rumble pick being big this worlds.

 

[garath]

I just started watching. Wow, LMQ beat OMG. Awesome!

 

[cHinzo]

Yeah who would have guessed when players started to spam that champ in Korean solo queue after arriving in Korea. :d

 

[Ferga]

c9 vs alliance

Yessss. Bring it on.

 

[HaterIsHating]

Most intense Pick & Ban ever, I feel.

 

[zkylon]

very good comps from both teams

alliance needs to give up dragons

edit: lane swap is another way to do it, smart

 

[Kotetsu534]

Three immobile squishies as your top, mid and AD seems a little risky against a Rumble (Kayle, Xerath, Kog). If ALL position well and keep the game to a poke war they should have the edge, but if C9 can get Kha'Zix involved it could go heavily in their favour.

 

[zkylon]

also very weak engage against a janna

i don't get hte kayle pick

 

[Leezard]

Alliance is going to siege and poke. If they get an Elise stun on someone, they kill it. It is up to C9 to engage really. The Janna disengage does not do much against Alliance as they are not trying to get into the faces of C9 anyway. It still has value against Elise and Kayle, but Alliance does not have a dive comp.

 

[bokn]

Whars the logic behind all the Kayle into the rumble picks?

Is she meant to ult the rumble ult in team fights? Push him into tower in lane?

Or maybe it was just for syndra
