Now that we're at the business end of the tournament I imagine if teams have anything special prepared, now is the time. Or perhaps there's going to be some sick series specific meta that's going to develop. In groups orzeu called AD Kennen;

I'll throw in some LL gold while I'm at it depending on how awesome your prediction is 
For me, 1) AD Kennen will be a contested pick between fnatic and Koo (yes, Koo won't be flexing it to top/supp and neither will fnatic). 2) If we see a lot of jg bans in fnatic-koo then Hojin might go Zac 3) Easyhoon will pick Anivia just to spite xPeke 4) Koo will reverse sweep Fnatic

I think with the newly contestible jungle picks (with gragas gone) there are now so many "must ban" champions that it's no longer in red sides favour to try and ban them all out. Since there will always be at least 1-2 top tier champions making it through, and there aren't many things the teams left in the tournament "can't play", that we'll start seeing pick bans where 3-4+ of the ops make it through the ban phase.
I see the focus shifting much more to target banning comps, or specific players on champions, then both sides having the option of picking some of the lulu-morde-darius-fiora-elise-reksai-azir-tahm-etc tier champs, and it coming down to specifically prepared team comps to deal with the 2-3 op's that they let through, rather then just trying to ban them out. Like how FNC let EDG get Morde in the game that never was, while drafting a crazy disengage/scaling team to make it impossible for edg to take lategame teamfights.
TLDR: less op's banned, more prepared teamcomps to deal with the op's they bait the other team into by letting them through.
Overwhelmingly bold I know

Okay dokay.
1) It's OG.Niels who will go with the AD Kennen (http://euw.op.gg/summoner/userName=OG%20Niels) he's been playing it a lot as well, more than PraY. 2) Fnatic vs KOO won't be as onesided game as people thing, I think we might see KOO winning 3-2 here, dropping first and third game. 3) Bang will have less than 3 deaths in whole series vs Origen. 4) We will see Bengi picking Nunu at least once.

Oh some other things
FNC are gonna put rekkles on a hypercarry, then Koo are going to punish them for the fact they don't know how to play around rekkles early on and tear them a new one.
The casters are going to go on and on about easyhoons soloq rank every time the easyhoon/faker topic comes up
Darius isn't going to be played much, contested top-capable champions will be lulu kennen gangplank and fiora, with gnar and malphite as reserves.
For junglers, I doubt BOTH reksai and elise will be banned, and it'll just be lee stepping in, with a bit of nunu/jarvan spice. Potentially a nocturne or two from the koreans too.
|
Lulu + Zilean + Jinx/Kog (too bad it depends on lulu making it through bans)
jungle Kench
also think origen will come up with some sort of cheese comps to try and surprise buttsex skt, best guess it revolves around as many globals/TPs as humanly possible (think ashe adc, reksai jng, tf mid with tp, obviously tp top, good roaming support like bard) even bolder, it wont work and they'll look like idiots doing it

SKT will at most lose as much inhib turrets as fnatic will lose games. We will see either GP or morde get picked, but not both. Montecristo will predict fnatic to win against KOO. Phreak will win a pun war at least once.
|
@ FNC vs Koo
1. Lulu and Darius will never be banned and will only be picked once or twice by Koo 2. Kennen will be first picked every game by both teams 3. Riven will be the most picked toplaner by both teams 4. FNC will leave Fiora unbanned G1 and ban her the rest of the series. 5. Tier 1 junglers (Reksai and Elise) may see more play than most ppl expect (will not get banned every game)

1) fnatic to 3-0 KOO 2) SKT to 3-0 OG 3) fnatic to 3-1 SKTedit: nvm it's not semi finals :D 3) koo to contest ad kennen
|
1) Peke will go off on LeBlanc in one game vs Easyhoon, OG will lose that game. 2) Reignover will play Skarner (Elise/Reksai banned). 3) Fiora will not be banned at all in KOO vs FNC. 4) FNC will leave Morde/GP open on red side (KOO first picks GP). 5) MVP of FNC vs KOO series will be Rekkles.
|
1) Both EU teams will fail to advance (I know only Fnatic is favored but I wanted to make the point as a whole) 2) Easyhoon will have a negative KD game. 3) Sjokz will make a Freudian slip that will refer to male genitalia.
|
3) fnatic to 3-1 SKT
??? You're joking right? lol?

1. If Easyhoon starts Game 1, he will blindpick TF if OG doesn't ban it (do we know blue/red sides yet?) 2. SKT will ban Lulu all 3 games
I can't think of any bold predictions
|
Yorick, Lux, Kha Zix, Amumu, Ezreal or Soraka; one ore more of these will be picked.
OG 2, SKT T1 3. FNC 3, KOO 1.
There will be at least 2 level 1 fights, each initiated by a different region.
Gotta go balls to the wall, or it wouldn't be a bold prediction.

Real bold prediction?
OG wins every game xPeke plays Anivia, loses every game he doesn't.
|
OG beats SKT, then all SKT fanboys blame Easyhoon and swear they would've won with Faker instead
|
Xpeke will farm even harder than easyhoon
