Happens to rtz all the time in pubs. It's unfortunate, imo it's a risk you need to take, as the chance you lose the item is like 1 in a 100.


its not a risk you take in an elimination match in the international with a 18M prizepool. The small gain you get from efficiency vs the possibility of getting ganked/losing your item isn't even worth it. if you lose an item in a pub who cares, losing an item when you are already behind in the international is a whole different thing


It's hard to say. Like obviously it's a lot of money, but if they did standard stuff, they'd simply lose. They had to do every little thing to gain the smallest advantage, have the stars align, and then just maybe, they could win. Playing normally they simply couldn't.

Its VP, dropping a 3k gold item for a small amount of mana does not increase their likelihood of making a game-throwingly bad mistake, while losing it increases the number of mistakes they can make and still win anyway.


It doesn't if that's just one time, but there might be another 50x where you drop the item, and it adds up.

I dunno, this occurrence is so rare, that I don't blame him, but oh well. Clearly didn't pay off this time.

"Rare occurrence" would be fair if getting ganked was a random occurrence, but it isn't. The actual act of dropping Eul's to bottle is fine, its doing it when you're in danger that isn't.

If you drop Tranqs jungle with a BH running around inside your jungle, thats not bad luck when your Tranqs get stolen, thats you being stupid.

CoL took one game. Empire and C9 both got destroyed 2-0.

In the past, Arteezy does improve after a lose, and from what I remember, so does Puppey. The other three, though...

I expect Secret to win but somewhere in my heart I want to see them lose for the big upset.
