Dignitas probably know they are behind I got that feeling from hearing Scarra after NA finals. CLG however considering they seem to focus on streaming and not practice really are in for a shock.

PS.
the soraka art is imo ugly but the spell effect do look nice. guess i can live with a bad looking splash art in trade :p

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.

CLG completely raped TSM in a bo3 yesterday. Granted it was an online match but still.

TSM has been playing poorly, or sandbagging, lately (since regionals). I can't tell which.

I see this as a possible counterjungling strategy before the inevitable hotfix. I don't see how it could possibly be helpful to your own team. Your top/bottom lane helps your jungler with blue while you set up red for him, then he runs to their red and takes it for free.

You could certainly throw red into baron/dragon. The leash is a decently long timer

You can even use singed flip to throw red into dragon/baron
