It is honestly not just the draft here, LGD thrives on team fight execution and they are really lacking in that department right now, a far cry from their last series vs. Liquid.

But they're lacking precisely because they can't see a clear plan for how to execute the teamfights, nor have they the means to get a lead in other ways that compensate for it.

Wow, salty much?

Both teams played really well, but OG managed to get the win, and you say that, ok mate.

LGD simply did not play well enough to deserve to win this game. They had the tools for actually making it work, but Fy alone had some really uncharacterisitc misplays i this game.

AH. So Chinese fans are proto asian parents.

Makes sense.

If you were better you wouldn't be flamed.

Fy basically wasting Winter´s curse not once but twice had a huge impact on how the most important team fight and thus the game turned out to go.

Pretty sure people didn't just comment as much, since OG has been fucking garbage before TI.

WW was terrified of dagon, if topson went for another build fy could have been picky with his curses.

I find the new OG much more fun to watch than the old one. Topson has a pretty fun style. And their drafts have also felt more interesting compared to the Fly iterations
