I think it's more important to look at the match-ups than the intricacies of the teams since even if winning/losing has a big influence, Curse may lose against CLG and C9 in the spring split but Quas would dumpster Nien regardless while probably losing to Balls, which impacts his score.
I wonder how much lane swaps impact things too (the 4v0 is awful for early stats, making the match-up less relevant, but if they adapt to the "take one tower slowly so that if you see them push hard you don't kill it and zone their offlaner while yours has free farm"... actually I don't think it makes the match-up much more relevant :| but the off laner whose team does that is more likely to get cs and less likely to get dived and die).

Pretty sure you have to draft before LCS starts, so that would be too late. 3 hours left only.

I'm bored so I checked. First champ is quas, second is nien

Regular season:
G1 - Shyvanna vs Mundo, they never meet in lane (3v1) and Quas roams instead of farming so 20 more CS for Nien
G2 - Mundo vs Renekton, that's the game where IWDominate picked Nunu and they just pushed every lane, so Nien spends whole laning phase on empty lane while Quas either roamed with team or had to deal with Dlift, so Nien gets like 40 cs more
G3 - Shyvanna vs Renekton, Nien gets 2 ganks while Quas gets 0, so he ends up 50 cs ahead (pretty reasonable with pressure and matchup)
G4 - Renekton vs Shen, 3v1 early, later they meet in lane and it goes pretty even (Nien has more farm because he froze instead of pushing and didn't swap lanes like Quas did)

Playoffs:
G1 - Renekton vs Shyvanna, even farm, altough Quas tpd early to get a drake while Nien tpd top to get more farm
G2 - Renekton vs Shyvanna, 4v0 lanes, Nien has like 10 more minions because he froze the farm earlier while Quas helped get drake, later Nien kept farming while Quas kept roaming

Didn't check the endgame stats, maybe he has those 100 minions more in one game or another, but it has more to do with team's decision than with individual skill :f But yeah, I wouldn't pick Quas for my Fantasy LCS.
