Edit 1: VGJ.T stopped playing down to the competition. Edit 2: Maybe not. If FTM didn't draft themselves into such terrible lanes, they could have won this. As it stands, VGJ.T is just going to trip their way to the win. | ||

FTM could have won that if they hadn't drafted themselves into a corner. You see this from most Tier 3 teams when they make it to a LAN. They go for something they play a lot rather than the obvious strong Meta pick just because. They picked a WK when TB was still in the pool. That's why VGJ.T picked it. I'd say this is LAN Drafting 101, but drafting is a skill lost on nearly everyone. | ||

It's only good if you can survive the buildup period, and you need another item on top to make it rise above novelty. Maelstrom/Aghs is super-abusive if you can find a way around BKB. This NA build is terrible and deserves to be buried in an unmarked grave. | ||

Optic already won this , kinguin is just giving up their entire map without contesting even though they weren't really losing on skirmishes | ||
