M5 while not the favorites to win, will surely have a chance to prove themselves on big event as they've been doing good work in scrims against top teams lately.
TSM has been upping the scrimming lately, or at least been streaming them far more, so I'm hoping that pays off for them.

You notice that there's a pretty long delay during Counterstrike where Trynd is not taking damage.
At 4:56 you can see Tryndamere being damaged by a proc from Jax' ult, despite Counterstrike being in progress. At 4:59 there's still a quarter of the Counter-strike buff icon left to go and Tryndamere has mysteriously suffered a 175 critical. Where did those come from if not from auto-attacks?
Edit: The pretty long delay is because Phreak super-slowed down the video during that point in the exchange, hence the giant clock on the left side of the screen.

Also- CLG:EU scrimmin TSM soon.

Possible, I agree, as Counter Strike can't crit. It might just be a delayed number coming up from the last attack before CS was put up, though.

This, 100%. I could totally see M5 pulling upsets at Kiev. But again, they aren't going into their first IEM as favorites.

Wait what? Dignitas just won the last tournament they entered in. Dignitas does well whenever they practise because they have commitment issues. Whenever they practise they do well, whenever they don't have time they slump. They won a tourney which was missing 1 of the top 3 US teams, and won the finals over another top 3 team that was missing its usual line up. Was it a decent accomplishment? Sure. I just dont think they could stand up to a full EG, TSM, or (functioning) CLG.
Agreed on your points, I guess we will have to see in Kiev what Dignitas does.

However, here are the numbers on Jax' ult as they were in the spotlight. 20/35/50 AP/AD base, +20% of AP as additional AP and +20% of Bonus AD as additional AD. Bonuses are determined at cast time and do not update as buffs/procs fade. That ain't bad at all. Probably not strong enough to warrant building straight damage over tanky dps/bruiser/metablargl/whatever you want to call it, but pretty damn good. Do you happen to know the CD on it? Other than that, I kind of want to know the actual numbers on his new Counterstrike. I'm not on the bandwagon of "worst change ever", but they'll have to be pretty careful of making it too bad/good. The CD looks to be 75s at level 12 and 60s at level 18, so I assume it's probably 90s at level 6. The new Counterstrike reads to me like Jax can win exchanges at will against Tryndamere and Udyr, but I don't know of any other solo top champions who primarily auto-attack. The new counterstrike is trash against trynd, the old counterstrike is way better in lane. In no way is 2sec dodge on a 10sec cd better than having a passive dodge against autoattackers. 2 seconds of assured dodge against Trynd can very well block 4 attacks, and then he's stunned for ~1 second. 3 seconds of immunity to Trynd every ~10 seconds is technically better than his 5 seconds of immunity to death every 90 seconds. Of course, not as amazing against AP, but you get the idea. In the spotlight, counter strike looks to have an 18 second cd at rank 1 (or 20 seconds from cast), and doesnt reach 10 until max rank. If Jax only trades when E is up, Udyr will out-sustain easily, while Trynd probably won't.
As far as trading goes, this is complete trash in comparison to Riven's 11/10/9/8/7 cd stun that has a 1.0 AD ratio and costs no mana, and her 1.0 AD 10/9/8/7/6 cd shield+dash that works against more than just auto-attacks. It is also free.

I don't expect Jax to become top pick/ban overnight, but I just don't think this is as devastating as people are making it out to be. Since he's rarely seen in games as it is, this change probably isn't going to kill him off or make him less viable than he is.

Yeah, so he'll go from never being played in tournaments or scrims to never being played in tournaments or scrims. I don't know, maybe I'm just optimistic that it won't fuck up too bad. And hell, if it is, and he becomes terrible on an Eve level, it gives them reason to buff him to something usable.

Am I really the only person who saw those numbers and thought "LOL HI RELASE VAYNE HI" when I read about his new ult? :S
A part of me thinks something along the lines of Wriggles -> Triforce -> GA or Wriggles -> Atmogs is your best bet. Throw in a random wota and everyone is happy. Tbh he's getting so much free shit from his ult that he might be great for Atmogs, kinda like Jarvan was at one point.
Edit: Anyone got full numbers on all skills/stats somewhere? Wiki isn't updated yet.

dno, 2.5k+ gold value in offensive stats for 15 seconds before bonus AP/AD seems pretty damn strong to me if you build tanky.

Just hit 1700 rating. The majority of games are still decided before the 20th minute though. People only going tryhard comps, and just now I've seen the first jungle skarner not carrying his team to win.
