I skipped Champions tonight to do some studying, and got hype for IEM... then 30 minute delay before first match. Here's hoping things roll smooth from here on.
I say this every international tournament, but I need to watch more LPL.
Meh Fnatic. First they once again go for their fail double AP comb, then Soaz shuts himself down by pushing first wave in a 1v2 and YellowStar gets picked up left and right. Cyanide hadn't any impact at all which also lead to Peke beeing miles behind Zz1tai. The only one really performing was, also once again, Rekkles.
Yeah, no clue what Soaz was trying to do that game. IG didn't look too strong overall, though. Good rotations when they saw an advantage, but lots of hesitation when there wasn't something obvious to do on the map, and some sloppy play around Baron. They really just built a lead off Fnatic playing the lane swap poorly, and having some crazy Yasuo synergy.
KT B better have worked some shit out over the past 2 weeks. If they can't even beat Millenium, then I don't even know anymore.
Very convincing stomp. No time wasted, focus turrets, never gave MIL any time to breath. Really excited for iG vs KTB now as both teams represent their scene meta so heavily.
KTB wins this whole thing. Calling it now.
I still like Gambit's chances. As happy as I am to see KT B blow up Millenium, that one game isn't enough to convince me that they've worked out all the problems they've shown over the past month.
C9 vs WE.
USA USA USA USA!
EDIT:
This game is fucking crazy.
THAT LAST TEAM FIGHT WHAT EVEN THE I
CAN YOU TASTE THAT DELICIOUS APPLE PIE
I can't believe that last 5 minutes. C9 just showed how to counter aggression with massive rotations.
reddit is amazing right now because EU got fucking wreck and C9 just bounced the second best team in china
My friend just texted me drunk from the LoL bar 20 blocks from here and it reads.
"America has defeated the vile Communists once again, the national anthem is playing. This is the nerd Miracle moment for me."
USA USA USA and all that. But TPA is tough as fuck
APPLE PIE! APPLE PIE! APPLE PIE!
WE is definitely not the 2nd best team in China. OMG and EDG are blowing up the LPL this season. WE has four times as many losses as those two teams combined.
I agree on Reddit being amazing, but for a different reason. The thread for KT B vs iG has a lot of comments saying it's the best game these guys have ever seen. Those are dudes that weren't watching CJ Frost vs IM#2 from a couple days ago, and they sure as hell didn't see CJ Blaze vs SKT T1 S from Masters a couple weeks ago. With both NA and EU LCS being pretty boring this split, I hope IEM convinces more people to check out OGN and LPL matches.
Good shit to C9 though. I would be happy to see them take the whole thing.
That was a surprise. The analysis desk needs to slowwww downnnn
It's official. The whole world has turned on its fucking head.
i post here maybe once a month, i mostly browse, so i don't know, maybe you're confusing me with someone. this thread is full of gold/silver/bronze players praising korea/ogn in every post i simply suggested different threads for different regions.
though i can understand talking about them every once and a while(IEM) i'm guessing on an english forum 99% of people dont want to sift through shit about regions that the games take place between 3-5am in the morning
