Those are the reasons I have for cheering for OG. + 3 guys on the roster from Scandinavia. Team Nordic Countries. | ||

Unless of course OG peaked too soon last year, to explain their flop at Shanghai. Or peaked too soon this year, to explain their flop at TI. There is a correlation between peaking physically and mentality, and the first is not reserved for sports, as it is more a mentality. | ||

Jerax alone makes this false, s4 is amazing too, notail is very interesting in the sense he acts very differently from the typical carry, fly on defensive supports is the best in the scene, I don't know, I'm not an OG fan but they're very far from boring. | ||

Those are the reasons I have for cheering for OG. Yeah, but the way I spectate them is that Jerax saves their asses in some almost absurd outcomes during the game, and Notail plays a brainless style either enabling a push or playing afk carries. He struggles a lot with positioning, but whatever. Ana plays like 90% of lanes and games from behind. Fly.. drafts well. S4 has flair and is crazy in play and lucky with runes to boot. Honestly, when I am talking boring, I am talking about their drafting and playing style. It honestly feels like a drag, like watching defensive StarCraft 2 protoss play. | ||
