No mirror that could mean that the game is really balanced.

Oh geez another nocturne gank on Vlad. He escapes, but had to pop ghost and got chunked too. Shyv heading up top. Tries to gank mid but lulu spots him and he merely pops sivir's shield with duskbringer.

Is there going to be a write-up for this semifinals? I certainly hope so.

For the semi-finals itself? Most likely not... The MLG article took an insane amount of effort to get done as quickly as it did and set a very high standard for myself to meet again. For the overall OGN tournament however there is the possibility. Main problem is that I also need to work on EU Regional Qualifiers, MLG Raleigh and NA Regional Qualifiers. Hrm.

Champions both teams consider OP being chosen. For example the previous example of a final game blind pick resulted in 3 out of 5 champions being the same on both teams.

Alistar hid bot and prevented a shyv gank on diana, but the lack of his presence mid leaves graves to die.

If you can see what the other guy picks, you counterpick them. That means less chance of picking the same stuff.

In Blind pick, you want to choose what you think is "The best 5 champion combo in existance" because you're not being stopped by bans. Last season in the blind pick (MiG Frost v Najin E-mfire) the two teams were almost identical because both teams believed that certain champions were simply "the best" for their role.

I was thinking about writing something but I have never been a good writer. I am better at speaking.
Maybe I will try something.

Apparently there aren't many, because we see 10 different champions being chosen, rather than something like Alistar Malphite or w/e on both teams.

In the MiG Frost v Najin game last season semi-finals the overlap was between Ryze, Olaf and Urgot iirc with Urgot Ult'ing Urgot and reverse Ult'ing the other Urgot shenanigans.
