So who won? I came in a couple minutes too late.

Also I watched him play a game of nidalee, where he was soloing morgana soraka in his lane. His nidalee really is quite epic. I played against his nidalee before. He went some 12-1-10 (but still lost).

clgaming beat us. we were dominating but a bunch of silly mistakes kept getting us caught and killed. we could have easily used our early game advantage (my spear was 2shotting HS's taric) but gave it away

. shoulda banned lilballz udyr.

It also uses an alternating draft, with champions being exclusive picks (you can't pick champions if the other team has). It starts with a bans going 1-2-1, with neither team being able to pick champions that are banned. Then, champions are picked 1-2-2-2-2-1, with the team that banned second getting first pick of champions.

Because he is banned in 99.99% of games.

And rightfully so. A well-played Shaco is like impossible to kill, he is almost impossible to gank in jungle leading to him controlling both buffs at least on one side of the river, he slows with just autoattacking and get kills on almost anyone. With a BR he is also like Warwick on steroids when it comes to killing tanks.

Why are people surprised at how some of the top1500 teams are getting stomped, I mean even in SC2 where the player pool is like a 100 times as big if you put one of the top 100 players against someone whos not top 1000 but over top1500 its going to be a crushing victory 95% of the time. I mean on the ladder the top 500 players prolly never play with anyone under top 1000, so some of the WCG rounds are bound to be "noob" bashing time regardless of name value.

That's not true, the top 500 regularly play with top 1000-1500 players. I queued against them often enough at 1500~ rank.

It's not like they're all on at once.

Meant top100 players, my bad, but yeah never is still a dramatization then ofc: but top 100 on US is currently above ~1650 rating and and top1000 starts at ~1450 rating so a 200 rating difference. So unless the top players are qeueing with someone who hasn't really played with them and is thus low rated or you are qeueing with some high rated players yourself you really won't be playing a whole lot vs them in premade qeue.
