What the gently caress is this Jungler build with a icy/challenging smite and a Sightstone? No one needs to challenge/icy smite anyone in a pro game, no one is 1v1ing on a jungler beyond like 10 minutes, it's ridiculous. Just get the green jungle item and get a better item in the other slot instead of a Sightstone. What the poo poo.
sven has literally just walked into clg's jungle and taken camps in front of xmithie in both of these games and he can't do anything about it because he refuses to build damage or combat stats

I thought the Item Shop specifically barred you from having a jungle gold item and a support gold item? I guess not. That's the first I've ever seen that.

My thoughts mirror the analysts. It was dumb to have Quas 1) lane swap so late 2) not use TP to swap, losing CS 3) lane swap while Ez and Karma could see. IT was responded to so quickly it was a pure loss. Santorin didn't do anything on Kindred. Feels like the same nonexistant, safe player from TSM. I didn't like Ziggs in the comp, unless it's a specific counter to Liss. I think the game was on tilt from the lvl 1 poke. Hoefully NRG pulls it together g2 and g3

relegation zone. Probably still there, but it looks like NRG is right there with them.
