challenger teams that 'try interesting stuff' just get smashed in LCS because teams full of better players will destroy most of your 'weird comps' by simply getting all the power picks you leave open by running annie mid. That being said, Gravity & Team 8 both did a solid job of playing meta while also bringing in some interesting picks so maybe NME can do the same. Somehow I don't think Innox, LCS midlaner, is going to pan out though.

AttackBacon posted:Anything is better than Coast If we get WFX vs TDK, I think we might see WFX bite it. Seraph is MUCH better than Avalon and can carry. FSN probably would have much more even matches with both teams, though I can still see them winning, especially against DIG. One of the EU games is gonna be lovely (because CWA is an awful team), but both NA relegation series will be boss as hell.

I think TDK and Fusion have a shot, Dignitas going out wouldn't surprise me. Winterfox probably won't, but who knows. Still, odds are probably in favor of the LCS teams but we will see. Dignitas going out would make me happy at least, I've never liked that team.
|
Dig's lanes are better than TDK's so they're fighting uphill in that matchup. Both Fusion and Winterfox are schizoid in performance, could go either way.

A lot of times a good environment and good momentum can cause players to really step up their game. I doubt he's going to be beating Bjergsen in lane but who knows, maybe he'll bloom in the LCS on this team (as opposed to the horror show that was EG) like a beautiful butterfly.

Seraph was never that bad, but he was on CLG during a time when they were probably one of the most miserable teams in LCS since Velocity. Winterfox should have just taken Seraph instead of trying desperately to make Avalon work. They're so loving dumb they put one of the better AD Carries in NA on support but wouldn't change out their top laner. I hate to say it, but if WFX want to continue in LCS they need to get rid of Helios and Avalon. They can still build a Korean team if they want but jesus christ

I think Innox on mid makes him more trustworthy too as long as he doesnt pick Nid. One of my biggest issues with Innox top is that he'd try to do the solo-queue carry thing sometimes, to mixed results. At least in mid its more straightforward.

I hate to say it, but if WFX want to continue in LCS they need to get rid of Helios and Avalon. They can still build a Korean team if they want but jesus christ Doing the FSN/TDK vs WFX/DIG head to head... Chunky: Beats Avalon. Make-or-break match vs Gamsu, who's the DIG heavy carry. Probably advantage Gamsu, but not too great. Nintendude: Worse than Helios. Reasonably worse I'd say, but not absolutely terrible. Equal or better (probably better) than Azingy. Huhi: Outmatched by Pobelter. Probably an even match with Shiphtur. Nien: Outmatched by Altec (but by how much? Hard to say, if we get top form Nien it could be pretty even). Probably even with CoreJJ. Trance: Worse than both Kiwi and Gleeb. Hard to say by how much though. Seraph: Will body Avalon. Jungler-decided match with Gamsu. Kez: Fairly worse than Helios. Even with Azingy. Kyle: If he keeps these performances up, worse than both Pob and Shiphtur. If he gets one of those legendary Jayce games, easily better than Shiphtur and at least an even match for Pobelter. LousixGeeGee: Vayne Mayne strats are not going to work in the LCS. Likely to get smoked by Altec and CoreJJ. Smoothie: Really has not impressed. Very likely to get outplayed by Gleeb and Kiwi. Overall FSN and TDK feel like they have chances to me, but it's tricky to say who wins because WFX has reasons to want to duck both of the teams. You don't want to trust Avalon to do poo poo on game day against a carry toplane when your LCS life is on the line, but TDK's botlane feels way worse than WFX's, which is important because if FSN's botlane gets going you're really screwed due to giving a morale and focus boost to both the main carry AND shotcaller. It's gonna come down to who exploits their strong lanes better, and whether Pob and Gamsu can go off against their opposition - if they get shut down, I feel like WFX and DIG will bite it.

This actually explains a ton: -why CLG's p/b was such rear end (yeah let's just use TIP's strats without understanding why they work) -why Gravity banned TF/Yasuo so many times (scrim results leaking?) -why Liquid started banning TF quote:Yeah, I don't think we need the tank junglers. But if the tank junglers are really strong, he'll learn them. Coach doesn't think we need to learn it yet, but he's been playing 'em. This is really concerning though, I hope they're mindgaming or something in this interview. Definitely think that he's giving too much to Loco to prepare with here.

I hope WFX picks TDK so I can see Seraph vs Avalon. I wanna see Avalon try to deal with that smite shyvana or some other poo poo Seraph will pull on him. That being said, I'd love to see it but then have WFX still win the series since Pob, Altec, Gleeb, and Helios are cool. Maybe they can poach Seraph after.

I'd actually rather see WFX eat relegation, so all its players (except Avalon) can get poached and put on better teams with more logical PBs and rostering. Imagine CLG Altec, T8 Pobelter, etc. There's a huge well of talent to mine there.

I legit fell asleep last night watching the NA CS finals. That's saying something. Grats on NME making it in, they all seem like good guys who haven't had a good chance before. I don't like their odds against the NA pool of teams but who knows.
