Zenon or Deman (I forgot who said it so I'm just going to name both casters lol... Too sleepy)
said that Saoz is known for his Irelia as well... Maybe he thought he was playing her last game!

Zilean didn't really fail, there was just not much he could do.

Also mileniums alistar was pretty bad he popped ulti in 3 situations that game he wouldn't have had to with good positioning and died shortly after each time. Maybe counter picking elementz is not so hot.

Really? I've never seen Soaz on a bruiser. His AP is not bad if he doesn't choke.

The only reasonable explanation at this point for why they didn't is that they underestimated it's strength (showing their inexperience at using AP Zilean).
Incidentally, IMO Millenium might have been better off with ANY OTHER AP carry that's not Anivia--the conflict between Anivia and Zilean in their need for blue buff just makes things more problematic than they need to be.

Also brand lost his lane to anviia by more cs then zilean lost to jax. Yeah but letting a jax get almost as much farm as a blue buff anivia loses you the game. Anivia always should have the most cs. Anivia usually gets wrecked from 1-6 and then needs to play catchup. I think the fact that Anivia had the most CS in the game even while ganking/controlling dragon means he won his lane really hard (especially laning against Brand).
What lost them the game was Zilean and Anivia both getting caught at the exact same time (as well as both burning summoners like Zilean burning TP and getting killed). Then CLG just snowballed and M just couldn't stop the momentum.

It was a terrible pick, none of the characters hotshot plays loses to a zilean.

Haven't seen a good EU Zil before. Like how we haven't really seen a good NA Rumble.

I've never seen eu run zilean + strong bruiser such as jax or irelia, it is amazingly strong.

I thought Jiji was backing Rumble as OP for a while. Is that gone now?

No commercials for me, refreshing the page on the stream should help.
Nidalee first ban again, CLG goes for Oriana ban (?!?!?!), Jax ban from M, GP ban from CLG (!?!?!?), and final bans are Zil for M and Udyr for CLG (?!?!?!?)
|
As someone who doesn't know this game very well, I'm really enjoying this stream. The casters have a good balance of commentary as far as I'm concerned.
|
I wonder if CLG is banning the champs they are good with just because they are super strong and CLG isn't afraid of anything from EU meta
|
"Why are they (CLG) banning these characters (Orianna) they're so good at?"
Brit not paying attention to the fact Millennium's first pick.

Solo Q, don't think jiji's consistently played Rumble in any tournament.
