H2K's jungler won them that game, but I was right in Ryu being strong, he didn't end with any deaths anyway.

She isn't lane dominant anymore, she's utility-based, like Lissandra but Lissandra still does damage.

Giants have a really great team comp, Unicorns have a lot of good champions but they're all very untested, no one besides Koreans have been playing Gnar/Rek'Sai well.

Giants has a decent teamcomp though. Don't count them out, they can instantly explode Corki and parlay that into a win.

I can understand UoL not wanting to FP Reksai if they didn't think it would even be open as well as being set on picking Gnar. But Giants not picking is pretty drat :psyduck:

UOL has a better team comp imo. Picking Annie into Leona is like Annie's worst matchup. Gnar is way better than nerfed Maokai right now and Maokai isn't a very good choice to lane into Gnar. Kass/Leb is a wash. Rek'Sai is better than Vi (if Kikis can play her). I like what UOL got much more.

Honestly Rek'Sai is so good right now that if Kikis is at all good at her I think UOL will win. I also highly prefer Corki over Jinx in the competitive meta right now.

On the other hand, short of a really good play by the young P.O.B. last week no one has been playing LeBlanc well at all, either.

Yeah uhh this is not gimmicky at all, how do they get a draft like this :confused:

Some pretty cool plays being made though, neat game.

I don't think she's that difficult to play and why she had such a high winrate in solo queue for so long with such an effective kit as hers.

Well yeah obviously. If you give up Rek'Sai and Gnar you definitely drafted bad. That said, Werlyb carried two games massively on Jax last week, this week it got banned and his response is a truly awful Maokai game.
