Mid because it's incredibly easy for him to bully mid laners right now. Blinding shot + free poison on aa + move quick = easy harass. It also allows for his team to have a real bruiser top while he sits mid being a stupid little shit.

Mostly I see 1 dring -> pick -> sorcs -> cap/dfg, I assume blinding max first and then poison. Sound right?

Oh my god yes. Someone else that does this. It's usually in the corner of your screen somewhere, you can drag it back. if u drag it far enough u cant reach it agen also sometimes my spacebar and f1 and all that position shit decides to stop working also annoying

what about the ad lux and support gragas? jungle galio is only about as crazy
|
Sounds kind of like a TF build, I want to try it out. What runes/masteries would you be running there? 21/9/0 AP masteries and MPen/armor/MR@18/AP? Would split pen runes be good on him?

Is curse actually playing seriously with their new secret strat, or is this tournament unimportant or seomthing like that
|
it's a showmatch I think, so they don't want to show any of their secrete stratz
|
watch out guys, they'll win the tournament but be DQ'd for not playing normally.

EDIT: Fail, meant to edit not quote >.>

What are you guys watching, anyone got a stream link?

Given that they were operating on a 14-16 hour practice day in those weeks before the tournament, that means that upwards of 1/3, and on some days as much as 1/2 of their practice time might be allocated just to discussion/replay analysis.
Obviously many of the top teams in LoL are making time for this sort of analysis, but I don't think I've seen any that allocate such a LARGE percentage of their time to it. I'm trying to learn DotA 2 (and failing badly while I'm at it, lol) but I think that because it's more chaotic and there are generally more plays being made so you have a chance to learn more from your replays. The game is also longer, with each phase having a large impact. With LoL I don't think there's as many moments that you need to analyze and watch. When I watch my own replays I find that there are not many moments that I can deeply analyze. I feel like laning phase is more typical of something like Street Fighter, in which you need to develop experience, intuition, and mechanics more than broad strategy.
same goes for dota if you analyze the game from a solo perspective. If you specifically try out stuff as a team and want to know where the weaknesses and strengths of your strategy and teamplay is, then you will find alot of stuff to talk about.
soloq 'strategy' atm is limited to picking a different top laner, which results in you having either a aoe'ish comp with double ap or a zoneing comp with double bruiser.
lol has much more potential though as far as strategic depth goes, but the way even the most skilled players are talking about the game right now did not yet tap that potential as fully as one could imagine. there is alot of build analysis around but no real champion-role and synergy analysis for example which is very common in dota even at lower levels. for example there are classical duo/tri lanes/combinations that people know. there is also more talk about the powerlevel of a whole teamcomp and how to make use of that.

Thanks.
So is Diana playing toplane?

"sorbooze1: this looks like a normal game in the brazilian server" Stream chat comments from Crs EU M5 game. Internet monkies 1 shakespeare 0

Curse is getting stomped this game. Down 5k at 14 mins with a free farmed Sivir on M5. I can kinda see what they are going for with the team comp but M5 is playing against it well.
edit: Not to mention the even more farmed Mord.

Lol, Diana's ghost is too strong ^^ Lux misclick, fires laser into the nothing.

@TheYango: That might also be because Riot still doesn't have an official replay system -.-
If we were still in the first days of LoLReplay you'd have been correct, but we're not. At this point LoLReplay is exactly the same as Spectator Mode, you see everything except team chat. For competitive teams looking to do analysis the tool is there, and the fact that Riot didn't make it shouldn't stop them from taking advantage.
