EDIT: Maelstrom already dropping jokes about 4CL having 5 days to disband and reband. | ||

I mean, for fuck's sake, they are getting stomped by a team that was knocked out of pre-qualifier by bunch of greeks (even tho LC were legit tier 2 team, ain't no questioning that). | ||

They can't really do anything with these line-ups, and because they're getting absolutely stomped, they look like they play extremely bad. But I think them getting stomped really is a consequence of their horrible drafting. I mean, Gyro offlane, getting zero farm, having no game impact whatsoever, that's just dumb. Plus, Bamboe just plays exactly like I thought he would (like a 2k scrub). | ||

Their teamwork will probably be better than 4CL's was this game, but they'll probably still be significantly outclassed.

Am I the only one who thinks the ex-London Conspiracy team is actually a quite good tier 3 team*? *My definition of tiers is, very roughly, tier 1 is a real threat to win TI/big international major, tier 2 is teams that consistently qualify/are invited to the former, and tier 3 are the teams who consistently show up to the big qualifiers/do well in smaller, more regional tournaments, so I don't see tier 3 as an insult.

I mean, for me tier 1 is regular premier visitor, tier 2 is qualifier warriors that are pretty good in small tournaments and tier 3 is this game. So, by my definition i can agree with you, LC/GB are pretty good tier 2 (in my terms) team. | ||

I don't actually think so, they had a serious midgame disadvantage, not only because of their bad plays (although they were a huge factor). It was better than the second game draft though. | ||

Their midgame disadvantage was pretty easy to dicipher: Yaphor (his name, right?) farmed, while EGM/Saksa did not do nearly enough to compensate for that. | ||
