Jax.
Jax is only weak against AP because oh his dodge and ridiculous damage output combined with lifesteal. And his ultimate gives him ~81 magic resist at level 16 for 6 seconds...

He is also pretty good vs udyr and gangplank because of the dodge but does lose to lee sin so he'll need jungle support.

(Don't know of any counter to a well played lane lee sin anyway, except perhaps HOTSHOTNIDALEE GONNA BE BANNED ANYWAYGG)

I'm more worried about the other lanes rather than Wikid vs HSGG

How much has salce been playing recently? Is he in form to take on Oce?

Can Jiji + elementz handle that bot lane?

Yeah, if game 1 is any indication, HSGG is fine. Salce is the weak link for CLG atm. Hopefully it's just nerves. He has the potential to AP almost as gud as jiji imoimo.

Is Salce normally a Zilean player? I don't have any experience watching Salce outside of WCG when i was there, and watching EG at DH qualifers, and DH itself.

I think they should maybe try to find a more comfortable ap for Salce to fill, everytime i see him play Annie in a big game, big things happen. Make it happen CLG.

Then again i could be wrong, and maybe salce runs zilean all the time, idk, Of course Zilean was good fit for their team, with those melee carries, and of course Salce is new to this team, but i've always viewed him as an amazing ap, so we will see how everything plays out.

Also does anyone else(regardless of your feelings about Dota 2), Feel the way they ban champions is really interesting and should maybe be looked into for competitive LOL. For those not watching, each team bans 2 heroes then each team picks 3 heroes, then each team bans 2 heroes, Then each team picks 2. I feel like maybe it wouldn't work, maybe it would, but it does lead to some interesting things happening, where you could possibly ban a key hero or two that counters your strat they haven't been able to pick up yet, or banning a key hero for their composition,

I looked up Salce yesterday on LoL just to see what he played. He had a lot of Zilean games played.

Elementz has to be on Sona for him to play his best, Oce can rape Salce mid, regardless of if he plays his best or not. Wickd is the big question for SK, if he plays like he did vs fnatic SK might lose again. I heavily doubt it though, I see SK cruising to victory.
