Teams probably aren't mirrors not because there aren't OP champs, but because there are mind games going on. It's not necessarily about picking the best champ, it's also about counterpicking what you think they will pick.

Blaze or Frost supposed to be the better team? And who owned TSM last tournament? Was it frost or blaze?

There's also the fact the teams are thinking about synergistic compositions. From Blaze we have the Lulu+Shyvana+Shen+Vlad AoE lockdown combo with Sivir and all her escapes and shields (esp with Cleanse+QSS). Frost has Diana+Malph+Ali for their AoE with Noc semi-global.

Damn Frost reclaiming their spot as the A team of Azubu? I feel like since they are already ahead it's going to be really hard for Blaze especially since Frost has the better 5v5 setup with Alistar and malphite.

This was fucking genius to leave alistar with shen. Alistar can easily disable shen ult.

Donno which is suppose to be better but Blaze beat TSM

Blaze and Frost pretty close. Blaze beat Frost last time in OGN.

Blaze beat TSM in MLG Summer Arena.

To be honest, the champs they picked are the same ones that got banned every game. This seems to be about picking the champs that the individual players are best with. Lulu, Noct, Alistar have been banned CONSTANTLY throughout this BO5.

Azubu Frost with the better set ups for their AoE. I don't think Blaze has gotten off a Shyvana+Lulu combo yet. Diana is just doing work for Frost.

Also, Diana + Malph still have massive power seperately while Lulu+Shyvana requires you to get them both right and both have to be there at the same time.

Diana's E settin up so many malphite/ali combos for Frost. Blaze's getting gibbed before they can even do anything.
