You guys should analyze the differences in champion picks between EU and NA once you do the EU write-up. Because they are really huge.
Though it could partly be due to the champion meta in EU not being consolidated yet because of fewer scrims.

Spellsy has a thread up on reddit that goes over some of them.

Official or not official doesn't really matter. It's still about dedicated individuals volunteering to produce these wonderful pieces.

And the more volunteers we get, the more legit this subforum's content becomes.

Nice write up, surprised you chose c9 vs curse as game of the day over clg vs dig, as that was much more dramatic, albeit with a lot more mistakes.

Mistakes doesn't even begin to cover it. If there's ever a reason a League games goes on for over an hour, it's rarely because it's a clean, climatic game. :X

As for C9 vs Curse, this was the one game example that Cloud 9 is capable of buckling down and pull out a come back despite a huge early setback.


Given how many BW vets are on these forums, I think most of you will get this comparison.

BW TvT was considered for a long time to be a long and boring matchup. That's because the skill level and game sense of the players weren't at a high enough level, and they're afraid of making mistakes. Some of those games lasted goddamn forever, CLG.EU style.

Most NA LCS teams play like Canata's playing TvT. C9 in comparison is like Flash's. Not just in the sense that they're better, but that they can create or capitalize on an advantage to decisively push through and win the game. Flash had his share of longer games, but what was amazing watching him was that if he created an opportunity he would go straight for the kill. Other players aren't at his level, and can't/won't end the game because they're not sure they can.

They're looking stronger by the day. As Nien figures out top lane, his already relevant team fight phase will be complemented by his improving laning phase.

I don't get why people give CLG so much crap. They have 3 guys in new roles, and practiced for only a few days, and they're immediately playing the top teams in NA. Of course they'll struggle early.

Now, if they don't improve for 2-3 weeks I'd be alarmed. But it's quite clear they get better every day, both individually and as a team.

You don't know why CLG catches flak? Really?

I like the new CLG. Taking two people for roles they are not accustomed with is ballsy, and I like it. Plus I like how they play already, jiji is a pretty good jungler (already better than Chauster).

And I hated the old CLG. Way too cocky.

Nien is a likeable guy. Jiji was the one calm voice in the SV and post-SV era. Doublelift is still cocky as shit but at least he's starting to understand the game better. Chauster (hopefully) realizes how behind he is and has to improve. Link I hope will be the new face of CLG. Likeable, well-spoken, wide champion pool, and has gone from mid-lane-support to carry-every-game in one split.

Depending on how their bot lane meshes and present themselves going forward I'll definitely be rooting for them.
