I see MF picked like in every one of those games right now, even if there is no Ashe or Cait on either team. Is she that good (I always thought Ashe/Cait/Corki are better) or is it because Ashe/Cait are banned every game?
MF has the highest dmg output for a carry, I think, maybe except for vayne.

I feel like the whole support/carry strat is really vulnerable to burst and CC lanes. The whole support/carry bot strat is riding on a very fragile string that needs to get the farm to transition well out of laning phase, and can be abused soon, because it gives up a lot of early control. I thought part of the reason it started becoming popular was because of that whole discussion where Chauster/Doublelift's Blitz+Ali fought Saintvicious/Chaox's Taric+MF to a standstill, and so people started thinking that burst/CC lanes weren't as good against babysits as everyone thought? Blitz + Ali is not a good enough lane combo. You've got to go deeper than that. More bust, reliable burst like annie sion, maybe heimer, lux, malz, etc So you'd say stuff like annie/sion/malz + blitz/ali/lux would do the trick? Aka reliable burst + someone who's cc heavy and not that farm dependant?
It's a feeling, so don't take what I say too heavily. Unless it's been tested, etc, it's just theorycraft.

Sidenote: Apparently there was a massban vs flamers, at least on EU:
"SOFIABG: Marten The Blind has been banned for 274 years."
Quoted to make sure this doesn't get lost and give our resident EU expert a chance to comment.

Don't forget it's almost impossible to run away from her.

Nah EG was just superb. Well played by them. The fault here is that CLG should not have had to play against them... and this seeding is so fucked up. What the fuck was riot thinking..... Sigh this entire tournament is losing its credibility with all them dcs and shit.

Doublelift has always been good at small-scale plays like that, he's just prone to being way out of position or having bad map awareness (both of which can be mitigated with good teamplay).
edit: @Hynda: Welcome to every single event Phreak has cast. His map awareness is worse than Doublelift's.

Am I the only one but is the quailty of the casting in the Season 1 Q just atrociously bad? I feel like they are never ever watching the minimap. Missing out on so many killls going "oh oops we missed that one".
I can't tell if it's supposed to be a fun action type of casting or a analytical because they are doing neither. Perhaps I'm just spoiled from Broodwar and SC2

Treeman(Flash/Ignite)+Xin Zhao(Flash/Exhuast) bot > all fotm bot lanes so far. Beaten Cait/Janna, Soraka/ashe, Taric/Garen, Cait/soraka + Ali/Blitz + w/e champs you can think of.
Level1 you have insane burst/cc with Xin's q, root, exhaust and ignite. Get brush control level1, let xin last hit while Treeman zones them from inside (fear of ranged root into Xin follow up). Once level 2 hits just zone even harder with those little sapling buggers, and keep letting Xin cs. If jungle ganks just kill jungle lol, you've enough burst to kill him, then peace before laners can reach you, although I do normally b to get a ward at lvl3ish.
Seriously have not lost a lane with this combo yet.
Note: Games can still be lost due to bad team mates, but the early game lead you gain should carry bads pretty far.

I'm just not even hyped up about this tournament. Dreamhack should be such a beg deal.
All this mess and controversy has just totally turned me off it.
I hope I get back in the mood to watch LoL tournament.

Meh. It had potential. Then they took the game, made terrible balance decisions that basically ruined 6+ months of play (IE+LW change) and refuse to actually support the competitive scene, and instead go ahead and make it a freakin joke. Like wtf? Riot doesnt deserve the spot at dreamhack for this game. Nor at WCG.
