FUCK THIS SHIT
I feel like if you want to run mundo you should make sure the enemy can't get Fiora and abuse her tank killing ability to destroy you. Mundo can't fight her at all especially if he is behind like this

I can see him being more useful in teamfights but splitpushing is hard vs. all that scaling true damage

They also let the enemy team get Trundle. Bad times for Mundo.

This game has so much wasted map movement it's really starting to bore me.

So... is this entire meta built around splitpushing now? I think it's been in every game we've seen in na.

Split pushing is viable but I would never base any meta on what NA is doing. NA is playing season 5 still.

They need to learn to play with Moon. In their game yesterday they were feeding the CS to Altec but today they went with a 1-3-1 where Impact got most of the CS and GBM seemed to be the secondary beneficiary. That's of course because Impact can dumpster RF especially since Fiora v Mundo is already tilted really heavily to Fiora.

Maybe NRG chose to funnel gold to Altec because of pick ban and the roster differences yesterday. We'll see. We got no idea of what Moon intends to do based on this one game.

Oh they just said that they don't have any particular lane they want to play around. Not entirely sure that's a good idea without the team established yet.

Also Renegades should be playing Alex Ich top lane and should have signed like Pobelter or something. Alex really enjoyed playing top lane before.

Bud I know it's cool for you to post that NA is bad because you feel it makes you seem educated but let me drop a little high level analysis on ya: NA top laners aren't super great and NA meta tends to let them get hosed at every instance but they're pretty much all actually good at the game and RF legendary is basically like voyboy after he got depression except with no upside or ability to carry games and also he can't win lane against anyone in the LCS on a meta champ if he ever was somehow put in a 1v1, which renegades can never ever let happen which is extremely limiting for them.

Renegades match up sort of poorly with C9, unless Renegades can do something about C9 hiding Sneaky from Freeze it is going to go down exactly like Keven said

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.
I am glad to see that the absolute coolest team in NA-- NRG--won.
