Like I don't see how a team with that bad communication can ever go from being just "good" to "great". Is it normal for LoL teams to have absolutely no real direction in games and communication? it really was terrible and disappointing. even ignoring the lack of positive communication, the amount of negative bickering and arguing was crazy. none of them should be saying anything that isn't looking forward in the game and helping them figure out the rest of the game. but after every mistake it was a bunch of arguing about the call. save it for when watching the replay imo pretty sure they dont do that which is why they want to deal with the problems there and then because they have another scrim right afterwards

I can't imagine how bad the arguing would be with Stvicious still on the team.

I think this is kind of an illusion. When he's on form, Froggen carries harder than anyone else in the world, which can make the rest of his team look worse than they are by comparison.
Wickd and Krepo are world class. Pete's teamfight is near immaculate, but I'm up in the air on his laning. Casters never want to show him laning when we can watch Froggen/Wickd instead, so it's kind of hard to gage. Snoopeh is almost certainly the weak point individually, but he's among the top of junglers in terms of teamfighting, and it seems like that's exactly what they want out of him.
I think they have a lot of real problems, though. They choke in big matches. Their level 1 is pretty weak. They often just let Snoopeh get fucked, which teams are getting better at exploiting. They have a tendency to throw leads, but play incredibly well when they're behind. And, obviously, they only really play one style.
I think if they could fix the choking and the letting Snoopeh get shit on, I'd probably pick them to win the whole thing. They have the most practice against all of the various styles and the best teamfight in the world. But they're always playing from a 10k hole because their early game is weak, in terms of both picks and playstyle. M5 to win with at least one Asian team right behind them. Everything else is going to be heavily bracket-dependent. But I'm really excited to see what crazy shit Dig and CLG.na bring to the table, because I think they're smart enough to know they're way behind everyone else in a standard game and both have shown they're capable of innovation and all-ins in the past.

It's all random until then. Anything could potentially happen and upsets aren't impossible. I think the real test of the tournament is which team is either the strongest in terms of overall meta or creative. Having a sleeper Urgot type pick could be a huge asset to a team if they have enough of them or can ride the momentum enough. The problem I feel is more in the players minds now, who is more willing to take risks for those big plays. Personally M5 have both the reckless abandon for the big plays and very strong overall mechanics for the meta. That's why I feel they're set to win anyway.

I don't think clg na and dignitas (100% sure by clg na) think that they are behind or worse in a standard game, that's just how it goes

Not sure I like the Soraka art, but it's at least way better than her old art. It does look like Soraka is falling closer in line to the other female splash arts though. The in-game moves though, are just great to look at. It looks clear and pretty damn cool, especially Q.
