Yeah, C9 was kinda sloppy this game, but it doesn't even matter because they're still leagues above Dignitas right now.

Choo choo

Watching Hai just murder Scarra at will is hilarious to watch.

yeah, i think C9 clearly has a skill advantage (mechanics and understanding of when to pull back / go) over other teams that helps a lot, but so much is just understanding team compositions and map rotations. zac / shen / zed / twitch / zyra is so amazing at split pushing (shen with stand united and zed is an amazing duelist), picking people off (twitch and zyra and anyone else is a lot of dmg and cc), disengaging from bad spots (zyra roots, zac's bounce), and diving towers as 5 once they get an advantage (zac's bounce, shen's taunt).

once they get any advantage its over.

whereas dig has a kassadin that has a slow start.

i blieve dig's only chance would be for elise to hold down shen early and for j4 / graves / fiddle to engage and do massive aoe dmg in early teamfights, but even then there are better compositions to do aoe burst.

Meteos's Zac is just too good.

got to watch the c9 game from like the 25 minutes marker and on.

Quite a bit of kills that game.

That CLG stat was truly Counter-Logic.
08-01-2013 , 05:08 PM
Of course TSM's Karthus is the most banned. Regi can only play him.

Coast's comp looking very Korean.

as does CLG's (no surprise with montecristo's addition as analyst)

CLG has a crazy wombo combo comp with j4 cataclysm into zac's bounce and oriana's ball on either. their ability to dive is great, and thresh can easily zone for ez during teamfights. however, they really don't have much in the way of a duelist for split pushing, so they will need to do decently early, grab some objectives (dragons, most likely) and snowball into some five man pushes.

Coast with shen, ahri, and elise has an excellent pick and split push comp and a lot of disengage with nami ult, and everyone else having the ability to escape. so if they get some good picks early they can just split push and pick people off while they make rotations or try to farm.

it's also probably a good team to survive a tower dive because so many people can get out of cataclysm and dodge zac's jumps, a nami ult, and shen's ult for twitch.

i guess i think coast's comp is a nice counter and they probably have the edge if they both play it to full ability, but the fact that they have to concede basically all early dragons is something of a bummer

I want so badly for CLG to be a worldclass team but they just keep derping
08-01-2013 , 07:49 PM
