Is it just me, or is Ezreal very underwhelming so far this patch?

Also lol at the people thinking that we wont get another CLG - TSM final. Even if the whole IMT team has to get shot on stage to make it happen.

I liked C9 v. Echofox.

I love Froggens Anivia. Haven't really watched any of the games this week (besides Echofox and the first Schalke series) and I'm deadly afraid to watch the CLG games. Very sporting of them to give the rest of NA a headstart against the reigning two-times-in-a-row champions though, stuff like that is why I support them.

P1 was as terrible as expected though and I've never seen a team so deadly afraid of fighting (outside of EUW).

Darshan is bad and Huhu is bad and they always were bad. Aphro and Stixxay will turn the ship around in time to get them to playoffs and from then on its everyone's game

Hey Keven I don't think it's fair to call CLG the greatest team in the world since nobody was in play-off mode and there was very little on the line at MSI for almost any of the teams. All that came from G2 tanking was Europe switched one place with LMS and in the end doesn't even matter bc if you want to win worlds you've got to beat SKT anyway regardless of what group you're placed in.

I, on the other hand, think that Kevens assessment is spot-on. You can be the best team without having the best players

So I haven't really followed pro lol for a while, can somebody explain a few things for me?

What happened to Team Piglet?

What happened to Echo Fox? They went from "Can be relegated, could contest for 7th" to "Didn't win in 7 weeks" to "Getting 1v3'd by loving Huhi" and I'm pretty sure at least the last part was supposed to be impossible by the laws of nature, man and God alike.

The only thing that can top the spanking FNC is getting, is if they somehow turn up the heat and completely smash H2K 3 games in a row

H2K choking like the 4th placed team they are. Seriously, that last play wasn't winnable, even if they got the Gnar the collapse would've killed them and they'd still lose.

Also Odo playing really really badly. Giving up first blood for absolutely nothing, he couldn't stop thinking he was still in game 3

Honestly its more H2K misplaying so badly it hurts to watch. Although he's playing pretty well to be sure.

This is going to be a great series. If C9 gets poo poo on, C9 gets poo poo on, so thats a win. If C9 wins, CLG goes to worlds, so thats a win.

After doing everything right, Impact throws it all away and gives up first turret gold.

Huni just has PTSD from chasing Darshan around the rift in spring, which lead to him being tilted during the playoffs against TSM. He tries to chase those demons away by getting a backdoor finish himself, team be damned

TSM is comprehensively better than every other team in NA atm and standard lanes greatly suit them. If they don't take first it would be a massive upset and I don't think I'm telling anyone anything they don't know when I say that.

Probably true. I'd give CLG a better shot at an upset though - C9 is basically TSM lite while CLG has a different style. Maybe it clashes well against TSM? :shobon:

Alright, I tuned out for a bit after game 1 and come back to an impressive 0/4/0 Irelia. Are we seeing new levels of tilt here? Why is it always top laners anyway?
