I think Hauntzer on Kennen is a more questionable pick than Jhin tbh, Jhin/Syndra is insane and he's still one of the strongest adcs even after the nerfs

How much of the post-chinese Exodus Samsung is still alive in this team? Would be cool if it were the same team of rookies that was so mechanically gifted and completely outpaced on macro play in S5
If by "post-chinese exodus Samsung" you mean the team Samsung build after White/Blue went to China after winning Worlds, then CuVee and Wraith were both part of that new squad they formed at the start of S5.

yeah super questionable.

was not trying to say jhin is a bad pick in the meta, i just feel like it's not a great match for what i perceive dl's style to be.

this is over.

Every time Gerard Way says something good about TSM he ages one year.

By the end of the game he will be naught but a collection of dusts and swamp gases.

I can't believe how good Syndra is. That's a champion that should be banned the rest of this tournament.

It was interesting that the SI people thought Syndra would maybe be too 'punishable' to be such a dominant pick, but the way most teams are playing I dont see it.

Syndra is good because of standard lanes plus Ghost buffs give her more mobility options.

They were saying that she was too easily gankable, especially with Lee Sin being a priority pick.

I don't know why people have been so hyped about Samsung, they have spent all of 2016 flipping between like 4th and 8th best Korean team and somehow won regionals off the back of a godlike CoreJJ performance which in retrospect seems like the most unlikely thing in the world to have happened in 2016.
