Eh? How is ludens better than Zhonyas or QSS in any situation as a defensive item or survival. He took tp and split push but it was obvious they kept sending Nocturne to gank him. I don't know if you knew but you can't run away from a Nocturne ult but you can actually Zhonyas or cleanse the fear. Cleanse also makes Malzahar beyond useless in teamfights since he has to ult Gnar or support. If Expect wasn't dumb and didn't tp with mini gnar he would have survived those ults.

Actually Immortals would've saved Christianity, the western civilisation and humanity itself if they would've gone to worlds. Instead we have Huhi playing the worlds saddest Syndra

imay probably won't beat skt (because they're actively terrible in mid-game and skt are skt) but they'll likely have like 10 minutes where they'll look like they're going to (because they'll 5-man bot at 10 minutes) so that's gonna be fun

Don't know what Jatt was on about Meteos having a good plays late game. It was basically 4v5 thanks to him. He landed some good kicks because Flash Wolves decided to go Elder drag without warding their flank with a poke comp.

yo, here's my pick em, what's your hot take on my Group A? I made that firmly believing that CLG would go full CLPee and they did today but I wonder if that will happen again or not. I'm not sure if today was a fluke or what but if ANX can get a CLG that makes the same mistakes they made today then I think there's a pretty good chance that G2 can also get that CLG and go 2-4, tie with ANX and then beat them to go on. Thoughts?

In Honor of C9 winning over flash wolves and securing the 2nd seed out of their group lets all join them in Cumming and then lets say the n word in a robot lady voice for 15 seconds.

The reason that SKT struggles against the Freecs is that Mickey plays really aggressively in lane. Most Korean teams don't play that aggressively like that, which is why BaeMe is playing over Athena, who is not remotely aggressive. They're hoping to pull a Freecs imo

that would be pretty funny and is totally possible. the CoreJJ part isn't nearly as likely as the RNG running around like stupid dicks part

That's the same for every group, friend. After tomorrow, it's three games per team, each day reserved for a group

i'd be surprised if ANX were able to take a game off G2 just because Zven vs aMiracle is just such a significant mismatch in terms of contributions, both G2 and CLG have weak/inconsistent solo lanes but Stixxay (who did have that ridiculous damage per minute this game) isn't as well-positioned to just stomp lane vs A Literal D2 ADC because of how he plays. CLG will probably play a far tighter comp against ANX next time , it's possible bc they have to be thinking "three support bans" which is a fun limitation but yeah i think we settle back pretty firmly into ROX > G2 > CLG > ANX for the remaining games so no hilarity

btw this is exactly what imay need to do to win this game, ganking jungler, ryze to roam, an adc who has stupid damage when ahead to cover up jinjiao's deficiencies

they probably still lose though because sivir-karma probably makes getting those kills difficult

they talk about the easy level 2 gank on faker, which is true, but they also have an easy jungle invade on nidalee, which i think is also quite likely
