This is exactly what I saw as a serious risk for EG. Alliance's aggression and cohesion are just miles ahead of anyone but some of the Chinese teams, like how VG was at their peak. EG relies so much on individual skill that their team cohesion is lacking, making them hugely vulnerable to this kind of play.

Except VG never beat PPD's team. Why do you even bring up Chinese teams when they've never done well against this very team?

EG will have serious problems to deal with that WK. Their supports and Luna will just pop esp if the dreamcoil is well placed.

Alliance did the same thing to Liquid. DS just doesn't work against them.

Why don't you get a bit of common sense? Of course I was talking about 2014. Do I actually need to explain what a figure of speech is?

Wisp was third picked. So went through two ban phases.
