Except headshot only works after a teamfight and bullet time probably isn't so good versus bruisers that are diving on mf anyway.
It takes one arrow to end an even game and neither of those ults have that consistently. The team also constantly has to play more safely than usual becaues of the threat of an arrow, wasting flashes and things that could be teamfight deciding later.

Well semi - finals are decided, kind of curious how this third game plays out..

Is it possible a team tries to throw the game cause they would rather play vs Mill, instead of TSM, Do you still play the hardest possible and show your strat when it's possible you meet in the finals?

-_-


If I was CLG, I would try to take 2nd place in Group B. They're secured into semis, so try to take the easier bracket.

But not sure if they want to "play" the bracket like that.


Has CLG ever played Millennium before? Did they lose? Because they lost on more than one occasion to TSM and that was with Chauster and not Salce and not Jiji on AD.

Unless Millennium stomped CLG in the past at some point. I would think CLG would want to avoid TSM.


I editted my post. I forgot that TSM first, M second meant you want to be first in Group B if you want to avoid TSM.

I wouldn't be surprised if Wickd said "I can take his Nidalee" cause he is that much of a kid.

Yeah I honestly wasn't sure on your analysis. I mean, some people might think CLG wants to face TSM considering they stomped them just recently in the China qualifiers.

I honestly don't recall if CLG and Millennium have ever met.

We need a LoLiquipedia.

I have a hard time believing any melee with mana can take a nidalee except irelia pre nerf to ultimate. Maybe akali and lee sin can. (Hotshot had to go out of his way to get chain mail and frozen heart rush when laning vs LS and that was mid lane...)

Late game, you wouldn't trade ECA for anything. But levels 6-13, I think Cait or MF might have been able to do more in team fights.

Dunno. Ashe is still a godly pick. Just wish jiji would line up his ultis better...

gogo CLG~

I saw a renekton bullying hotshots nidalee hard in solo queue some weeks ago, he was just perma aggressive but that probably wont work that well in competitive 5s because of better ganks.

the only reason SK lost this game was not spotting them at level 1 jungle and the fact that they didnt ban nidalee, they were actually doing really good at bot lane, dragons and doing quite well in mid with ganks from nocturne but they couldn't handle the push from hotshotgg and wetdream was so far behind from that first blood that he couldnt gank mid or top early


FB on Noc is definitely not the reason why SK lost. SK was behind in every lane except bot.
Candypandah never converted his godly farm into anything tangible in team fights.


inorder to stop nidalee from farming so hard is to kill her before she can reach level 6, WW got manhandled from lee sin ganks and nidalee while nocturne was still trying to clear his jungle, that first blood was gold because they stole wraths, small golem plus lizard which means nidalee and annie are completely free from ganks early and annie got that first blood puts him above ocelote and got a kill with tibbers as well. It definitely was a reason why SK lost, WetDream plays a SICK nocturne but he couldnt do shit this game he was not a threat at all throughout the game and he was 2 levels behind everyone.

I still think CLG is stronger, if China qualis are any indicator.

But wouldn't you want to take an easier route to the Finals? wynaut? You already got stuck in the harder group.

I gotta agree with Neo here, if Jiji stays on ashe and his arrows don't tighten up there will be trouble heading forward. No other team is just going to let Hotshot do his thing for free anymore if they are smart.


Except with Hotshot being such a threat top it can become a toss up between shutting down Hotshot or maintaining dragon and bot control. SK managed to take just about every drag that game if not all of them - with the trade off of letting free farm top go to Hotshot. Unless someone can beat him in lane the team will always have to swing top to shut him down and lose drag control, or let him free farm.
Wickd showed what happens when your can't at least match Hotshot in lane while he is playing any champ that he is competent with.

I see your point but I would credit that more to CLG's joint decision to steal Wraith/Red. Not so much the FB by Salce. Dying to Salce was simply adding salt to the injury.

I still don't understand why SK went for Rumble instead of a more standard AP caster - particularly coming out of the previous EU meta of two AP... seemed unnecessary and gave them really poor burst dmg


I think it's because Oce plays quite a bit of rumble and feels very comfortable with it.


I personally think it was to abuse the WW ult + Rumble ult dynamic. SK did first-pick warwick after all. They did that combo a few times in later team fights and it did crazy damage the one time sv didn't immediately stun WW out of it - they were just too far behind to really capilatize at that point imo.
