Veil is spell blocker, Mikeal's is the cleanse. I would imagine he's got Veil because he's wary of getting caught by Apollo, Xpecial or Keane. Neither of these teams seem to be bothering with anything other than the most basic wave management at this point.

And sneaky and Jensen manage to break the base by just ignoring the objective. Honestly, a good call considering that Dragon fight is win or lose.

Fortunately, APX doesn't know how to close out games, even when handed an 8 minute ace.

I think Smoothie was off his game this round too. He seemed to not hit that much.

That game was too long, but fun. APX was all about dogpiling into any opportunity, but Jensen put the fear of Malzahar into them and that blunted aggression kept them from ever closing the game.

Even the C9 haters gotta give it up for that much CC dodging. That was loving horrific and Sneaky probably got ptsd now.

If he's still in the C9 house, he's probably the one who chose to back off rather than C9.

Although, for all we know he does this, and the minute the split ends it's announced that he's going to Apex to replace Xspecial

I find it strange that C9 decides to make Smoothie the full time starter for their main roster, and Bunny doesn't even get sent to C9C. I think he's pretty clearly an upgrade to Lemon. Oh well.

Bunny can't play on C9C this split because he's played in too many LCS matches. Even if he hadn't, depending on when the decision was made, C9C would have been roster locked for playoffs.

IM v EDG was pretty funny. I want to make a flow chart for IM's coach / in-game shot caller that looks like this:

"Are you about to tower dive?" -> "Is ClearLove not presently accounted for on the map?" -> "Don't do that dive."

But now would be good.

Jensen playing Taliyah badly shouldn't be a surprise, since Bjergsen has been playing her well and Jensen's always been the Kirkland Signature version of Bjergsen.

Jensen cost them this game so badly but At the same time it was mostly CLG playing smart to take him out of the game. Advantage from that swung bot lane. Bot lane rotated over and over to collapse map objectives. Game snowballed at level 1.

Just first pick Sivir every game. There's no reason to blind pick a top or mid laner early in a draft.

This probably only annoys me, but why is the LCS production not consistant between streams? I don't mean the studios or casters or whatever. I mean stuff like the streams straight up using different assets (I'm guessing one set is the old set).



Totally different LCS logos in the bottom left, different font spacing/size on the scores, "Be Right Back" vs "Coming Up", the difference in size of the Instagram(?) logo etc, it just bugs me :spergin:

Also the NV logo is the Liquid horse.

Why did Impact draft Trundle into his hardest counter. Did he forget the game he just played a minute ago?
