Well, I mean, the CS finals were DigEU/Splyce vs Mouz, so yes, I think you did imagine it

Went back and checked esportspedia. Wunderwear on Gangplank hard carried game 2 of the semis against Denial, and otherwise did ok but tended to have most of his team's deaths. Still pretty surreal to me that Mouse actually got to the finals of a CS, bit of a change from them coming in paddy fuckin last all the time.

So Vitality literally flips a coin to see whether they're going to be good or bad any given game, huh

this seems to be both the shook and nukeduck way of doing things. Some games they look incredible and others they're totally worthless

Am I the only one who thinks mid Morgana is garbage? I have yet to see her impact any game this split.

I haven't seen much mid-Morgana at all this split, aside from Trace inexplicably playing it top a couple of times, I've really only seen it support.

In my brain I want Roccat to win, but it just feels mean cheering for anyone against Giants at this point.

She's been picked/banned in a third of all games this season world-wide. She's not a niche pick that Europe "discovered"

I guess I've just been out of it this season so far then. This week she's looked like the Quinn I'm used to (i.e. useless and unable to contribute) so I was wondering what's up. Are people trying to capitalize on her being a lane bully or did she get adjustments in S6?

edit: what in every gently caress was that

i feel like pushing the SHOTCALLING angle is a thing they talk about in the pre-broadcast meetings because nothing is really happening early

It's because reddit believes that shot calling is real and the most important thing. It's the David Eckstein scrappiness narrative come to league.

tbf it appears that it actually does exist in the case of c9.

yet another reason why they are bad and should go away imo

Quinn is a pretty strong split pusher similar to fiora but with different lane matchups and more team fight / objective not utility exactly just a ranger auto attack. Europe loves her because Europe is a collection of cultures, languages, and histories United only by their love of dumb rear end solo queue ad auto attackers top lane.

Link playing for Hai actually showed that it does not exist. A lot of other things have happened to make the team a lovely environment and the fact that they think they're useless does not make Hai's ability to play a 1-3-1 comp a magical power.

Highs shot calling just translates into losing in a slightly different, dumber looking way against better teams anyways, like when in solo queue your Inhib tower is going down but your 0/3 top laner is getting bot outer at the same time.

OG v VIT

SPY v GIA

Origen won yesterday so they'll take today off.
UOL will remember that they're UOL today.
G2 will have a chip on their shoulder after yesterday's loss. Expect a bloodbath.
Elements and Roccat will play an 80 minute game with 6 Baron throws, multiple 5 dragon power plays, and less than 10 kills total in the entire game.
Giants will shock the world today by going 2-0 for the week.

Unicorns of Love will battle against the obviously racist FNC and defeat them. Origen will lose because they're jackass morons who are going to waste an entire split or more because too many team members believe they're too talented to listen to coaches or analysts.

Wild dogs will eat the rest of the EU teams probably.
