The thing is all lanes are very late game oriented. Froggen plays Morgana, Karthus, Anivia, Orianna and Ahri mainly. Ahri is the only one of those 3 that falls of a little lategame. What CLG all do is play passive and then center around clutch Krepo/Yellowpete play and good strategical movement. Bot is always super safe compared to most other teams and Snoppeh rarely ganks early. Their team is centered almost always around Froggen which makes him look amazing. M5 for example often center their team comp around Genja or Darien.
People look to much at KDA and CS. They focus froggen because he plays the champs that can be pressured while bot and top usually play safer picks that are harder to focus ganking on and Froggen is the center of their lategame play.
Alex ich is just as good as froggen but his rooster is more team oriented than Froggens carry oriented one (also diamonprox get more jungle than snoopeh). This is also seen in the difference in playstyle and plays m5 vs Clg do.
Froggen is really good but he is not miles ahead of other big star EU mids.

Crush Froggen's spirit. Have first pick, don't ban Anivia, let Froggen think he can play Anivia, pick Anivia.

This is not correct Morgana falls of way harder then ahri and lategame shes mainly usefull for her blackshield (she is still stronger then some other aps like sion) ahri has always the potential to oneshot ppl with little to no risk
Froggen is really good but he is not miles ahead of other big star EU mids.
I agree 100% not to take anything away from froggen he is obviously insanly good and one of the best aps in the world but you have several other top aps in Europe: Moopz Alexich Moma xPeke and others there are so many insanly good aps in europe

I would personally say that its not really true, that while she isn't as strong as the rest she get really good in protect the carry comps. She is situationally scales well vs anti carry comps.
Which when I think about is slightly worse than Ahri.

Surprised how vlad can farm vs kayle without revolver. Also flat mpen OP

Darien gonna rape Curse yea.
Edit: Sona trading with Ezreal, lolwtf.

I don't think linking to the twitch site stream is particularly encouraged. Clicked that and the chat is so incredibly toxic and intelligence draining. Best to watch it embedded somewhere without the chat.

Hmm, that is the official Twitch channel so it would be unfair to ESL if we give their traffic to another site. I guess I could rearrange the links a bit to emphasize Riot's portal, which has an embedded stream.
Game 2
M5 vs. Curse.eu
+ Show Spoiler +Bans:
Malphite Yorick
Maokai Urgot
Karthus Shyvana
Picks:
Sona Nunu / Orianna
Udyr / Jax Vladimir / Corki
Ezreal / Zilean Soraka

Now here I thought that "top eu" teams are close to M5 and clg.eu but M5 absolutely destroying curse.eu lol and I expect nothing less from the sk vs clg.eu match.

I think they dont care if we watch on the twitch.tv site or one embedded on clg.net or whatvever. Only thing they might prefer would be people watching the one embedded on the esl site.
I only watch embedded streams because the twitch chat makes everything lag for me.
Btw, is there really a working stream on the Riot site? Because for me that one does not work.

how hard is it to watch the minimap and talk at the same time, i dont understand
|
this whole game Ive been hoping crs would get even one kill
sigh

The stream on the Riot stream has (or it had earlier, not checked) the wrong stream, they've switched over to esltv's twitch stream.
As for the chat, just click the cog under the chat channel and click the middle option - 'Ukryj chat' to close it, don't know if it'll help out with lag, but it'll hide the idiocy at least.
M5 just stomped Curse EU, Curse played horribly. No map control at all, they just gave M5 every dragon, never bothered to ward it or even try and contest. I hope someone catches out Gosu P's Sona and just crushes his aggressive playstyle because I find Sona one of the squishiest supports ever. Still, looks like a CLG EU vs M5 finals again unless SK find a miracle.
