Seriously Dignitas looked so much better than C9 its not even funny. The only reason they won is because Jensen was super consistent and Ray/Impact had a few good teamfights despite being behind. I think if Dig keep improving they can beat C9. The first game was a massive throw and probably tilted Dig, lod was 100% tilted in the second game.

I am really down on C9 right now. They are top3 or top2 but their play is so passive and relies on enemy to throw at baron multiple times. IMT/Dig have way better wins than c9 but they always have one big mistake per game which C9 doesn't do.

Fly and Echofox are so poo poo. Balls, Altec and Froggen look like decent players. Balls has looked good on carry tops like Rumble/Camille and tanks. This game he kinda got camped in a bad matchup and had some brainfarts in teamfights. Altec has always done well imo even when Flyquest were getting 0-2 by everyone. Froggen its the same story since Alliance got Kabbum'd he is never lucky with his teammates. Looper looks ok but definitely not worth an import. I mean atleast he isn't bad like KFO.

Yeah, I was watching multiple times when he went way too deep.

In fact, you could say he went...

Balls deep.

If I was a coach against flyquest i'd huddle my team up and tell them this: dont die early to moons dumb rear end cheese poo poo, win all your lanes because their players are bad, then walk to baron at 22 minutes exactly and wipe them.

Well, it's around 20 minutes and Flyquest have a small but meaningful advantage, so the next 5 minutes ought to be fairly tragic

There's something comforting in knowing that no matter what advantages EchoFox gets, you can be confident that they will lose.

Everytime Echofox plays I have to poo poo on Keith also. Why the gently caress is he down 70cs to Varus as Ez? Man Keith is probably the worst player in LCS right now. There are many bad players but he has the highest potential to lose you the game.

It wasn't game 3, that was game 2. Samsung just 2-0'd SKT. Yeah, the Samsung/SKT game is worth a watch.

I don't think Froggen ever had team mates who were near his level, but Keith is pulling one big Wickd Kayle revival show this split

Samsung rolled over SKT but I still think SKT are favorites for the whole thing because of their seeding, they basically only have to win 1 best of 5 to win the whole thing.

I remember Crown saying the interview before the worlds finals that the only way to beat SKT is through the middle. Crown always holds his own vs Faker throughout the game which I think is a game factor why Samsung won. Haru and the SSG botlane played really well too today.

most of the players he actually wanted to get for alliance they couldn't go with in the end. i think his only first choice was shook, who had his moments

Ulio
Feb 17, 2011


I am not sure but I think he wanted to get Edward but Edward didn't want to play with Wickd because he thought wickd was a bad player.

I forgot who the toplaner they wanted to get was... I think it was Jwaow or Zorozero not sure though. Jwaow was also pretty hyped up back then in the EU scene and he did play for Elements but never lived up to the hype.

The Alliance roster was actually pretty good. Wick/Nyph were meh but Froggen/Tabzz were a consistent core with Shook going off from time to time. Then after they got kabbumed they brought in Rekkles and on paper the roster had great players. Rekkles and Froggen were considered probably the best for their roles during that era. They managed to avoid relegations with a cameo by Krepo as their support and Nyph becoming the coach.

Behind the scenes and from Thoorin reflections its seems there was a rift between Froggen and Wickd/Shook. The management took Froggen's side and those 2 got booted off. So their roster went from Wick/Shook/Froggen/Rekkles/Krepo to Jwaow/Dexter/Froggen/Tabzz/Nyph. Somehow that team didn't even make it to relegations but Forgiven/Betsy/Cabochard/Sven/Fox/Freeze/Shook were all in relegations.
Also thats the split deilor received a weekly mvp award lol. Because EU LCS broadcast team just gave weekly mvp awards to every fnatic member.

Well thanks for al of that. I guess I will feel a little sorry for Froggen. What is the team he deserves, though? I think TSM and C9 both have better mid laners so at best you're maybe popping him into CLG. Honestly, he'd probably make it into a top EU team if he went back home. He is very consistent.
