Damage in last team fight: 400. As much as Janna

E: I didn't notice until you pointed it out but yeah he stands like a mile back behind walls doing literally nothing in engages.

Ya you kinda forget about him because he doesn't make the game losing play but some games he has no impact. Pretty good on some picks though like Cassio, Azir, Orianna.

I seriously thought Dig would lose to TSM splitpushing them. Nice to see Dig being more decisive.

Don't think we are gonna see LOD or Big any time soon. Altec is an actual carry threat. Don't understand why Fly removed him over Wildturtle. Altec has much higher ceiling and is still really young.

Actually the more I think about it the more I think Righteous Glory is a really really smart buy but it's more fun to make fun of him so

What a team fight from Flyquest.

Though, I guess it goes to show if you have one super tank, if that super tank is split pushing things might go bad real quick for you.

I don't really think it was the pick potential and more that Janna countered everything IMT tried in team fights.

I like all the players in Imt, they seem pretty chill guys especially Pobelter but I don't think they will beat teams like CLG/TSM/C9 in best of 5. Same thing happens in NA every year, those top 3 teams always beat everyone else in big games.

Dear lord. WildTurtle has IE and Ghostblade while CodySun has just finished his BotRK.

And...a complete collapse from FlyQuest. Immortals just hit Balls until FlyQuest broke.

I'm still trying to figure out how P1 looked so strong at Rift Rivals then came back to get stomped by Team Liquid. Like yeah, I know Ryu is on vacation but there's no way he was that big of a factor in P1's games

Pirean is just that bad, look at how much Envy have improved since dropping him for Nisqy.

How bad do you have to be that MikeYeung, Xpecial, and Arrow can't carry you

e: If SKT lose a series against either Ever8 or ROX this week they very well may have to play the gauntlet to make it to World's although you can always count on Jin Air choking and letting them through but seeing KT/Longzhu/Samsung at World's without SKT would be exciting just for diversity's sake.

Nisqy definitely looks better them because he can play more than just Taliyah and is better in lane.

Ryu was really good in teamfights and was actually a pretty big playmaker. I remember him making so many big plays on Orianna, Galio or Corki. They basically had 2 great teamfight carries in Ryu/Arrow. MikeYeung won them the early game so they could transition their main strength of mid-late game teamfights. Problem is they fall too behind in lane and Pirean is worse version of Ryu so they fall behind even more. Only hope is Xpecial/Mikeyeung popping off on Thresh or Lee/Nid. Arrow is good in teamfights but in this tank meta I think it will be hard to solo win teamfights as adc.
