VEC picks minimal CC and gets rolled by AD Tryndamere.

I hope everyone learns a lesson from this.

That game was pretty much carried by Voy's trynd. I would also have not like to see kayle in the 1v2 lane. I'm really not sure why they did a 1v2 for bot lane all things considered. Ed and Cop haven't had practice so why not just fight them straight up in a 2v2 and win the lane?

His stats looked pretty good, but so far in two games Saint hasn't seemed as on top of it as he was at allstars or in soloqueue

Yeah, Trynamere's main gimmick is that he can snowball out of control without any kills, just some farm. Once he had his Shiv, the wave was constantly at the turret, and that helps keep pressure down. VES's only form of hard CC was the Varus ult, and I wouldn't call it a hard CC, since Trynd can still auto attack people next to him in it. I was thinking it was too dominant, but instead it was just a perfect pick to counter a CC-light team comp.

Chauster's crutch ult was amazing but other than that this match has been terrible. Boring farm fest for the first half followed by dignitas throwing away their lead in the second. Fire both teams into the sun and bring on some cloud 9.

Aside from the level 1 brain fart, Chauster is much much better on a support like Janna than Thresh.

Yeah, when he burned his ult into 5 people in that midlane and nobody else on DIG followed up, he's lucky he got out alive but I also didn't see the point.

I'm not even sure either of these teams are going to beat anyone aside from each other. Its like their games haven't evolved from previous seasons at all and the game has kind of passed them by a little bit.

Judging from the comments in here (can't see the game myself), it sounds like what they're doing is "Being North American teams."

The only reason either of these teams is going to win this game is because someone has to eventually.

Don't put points into luck, they said.

It's a useless stat, they said.
Not to break up the hivemind, but this is really Dig's flaw moreso than CLG's. CLG is coming in with a reconstructed team, and the two people from S2 CLG that stayed in the same position (Doublelift and L1nk) have been playing incredibly well.

I don't really know what Dig is doing, though. This was their game to win. I hope they can break out of this funk and this isn't going to be the norm for them in the future.
