RoA Seraph's builds are probably the biggest outlier in that they are incredibly cost-effective when fully charged, and the health+shield is approximately equal to a warmogs. However if you are playing a champion who benefits hugely from alternative builds then a faster defensive item isn't bad. Of course RoA Seraph is strong. It's essentially equivalent to double gp10 except instead of giving you direct gold, it's giving you HP/mana/AP.

On gank-oriented APs, there's obviously a need for damage, but on the more teamfight/farm-oriented mids like Anivia and Orianna, there's not as big a need for immediate damage. Teamfight strength comes in many forms, and so long as your other teammates all have the ability to provide damage, defensive utility is good. Froggen showed us this best on Anivia--he can maintain a very high teamfight presence in early teamfights even with an utter lack of damaging items. The logic is sensible, it's just that Froggen chose to buy selfish defensive items like Warmog's. We can achieve higher effectiveness by simply opting for team defensive items rather than just selfish personal-stat ones. | ||

![]() Royal treating Ming9's Sona like just another minion, killing her every time TF ult is up. There's not much pressure on Mundo, and Ezreal is fairly even with Caitlyn. Oh man, MVP's bot lane is getting demolished. 1-7 total. What happened to the MVP White of OGN Winter's group phase? Got destroyed by Sword, Shield and now Royal. Both their bot lane and Dandy look horrible - Dandy just severely mis-timed the TF port-in time and blew his ult too early, losing all chances of survival. Really makes me regret naming him one of the, if not the best jungler at one point... 21:30 surrender from MVP White. 21-3 final score. Man, they got dominated badly. Always ban TF against any chinese team. | ||

I think they did even have twitch but no idea why they stopped using them Thanks, I'm not familiar with daumtv and afreeca, sadly. Might try and have a look into that, going back to SWL for now anyway. Think the twitch is for bigger events only, those that also appeal to the western crowd, like the IEM qualifier last weekend. | ||
