Admittedly Soraka doesn't seem like the most sensible support pick here. I don't think Sypher lost this on their picks. Their game-plan seemed fairly sound (shut down triple anti-carry by not presenting easy focus-targets) but it felt like they simply just got outplayed (e.g. Tristana getting massively outfarmed bottom). They lost this game before what they picked came into play. On October 16 2011 00:45 spinesheath wrote: Meh, they just jump back in again immediately. Basically Janna has to ult immediately or else someone is dead, and Akali and Lee Sin don't even have to blow high cooldowns. I'd much rather have Zilean. Akali doesn't get a new charge for killing someone who has Zil ult on it. They tried Zilean the first game with not-so-good results (their Zilean player didn't look 100% comfortable with him). My guess was that they wanted to run something they were more comfortable with for game 2. | ||

Fnatic.Shushei: "xPeke. I hope he wins MVP." Joe Joe: "How did the Talon first game go? Tell us about it." Fnatic.Shushei: "Whenever I go for cs, Rammus was there to gank me. But that meant no pressure on bottom and they could do whatever they want. So Caitlyn was no a problem." Joe Joe: "What do you think of bans/picks second game?" Fnatic.Shushei: "Picking Swain was wrong. They let us have Talon, Akali and Lee Sin." Joe Joe: "Twitter questions! Who do you prefer to play in the Finals, CLG or SK?" Fnatic.Shushei: "I want a full EU finals, but CLG is more likely to underestimate us like they did in the Pool Stages." Joe Joe: "Will you do Talon Cosplay?" Fnatic.Shushei: "Hm, not sure haha." Joe Joe: "Zenon asks: Do you prefer dual-AP, or the Assassin/Bruiser style?" Fnatic.Shushei: "We like both of them, it really depends." Joe Joe: "What do you think of IEM Ghuangzhou China?" Fnatic.Shushei: "Asia was always strong in ESports so it was interesting to watch them play such as with assassins. There will be top Asian teams and they have the potential to make it to the top." Joe Joe: "You heard it here first, Shushei is transferring to an Asian team!" Fnatic.Shushei: "No, I love my team. We want to hold the front as long as possible." Joe Joe: "Why no Gragas?" Fnatic.Shushei: "We preferred Talon today. Maybe in the finals haha." | ||

Sypher.Skyart: "Fnatic was in really good shape and we expected them to do super good, and they did. We hoped to do better, but it happens." Joe Joe: "Tell us about the second game. What was the thinking about Swain pick?" Sypher.Skyart: "We know they like double AP so we banned APs they like. You don't want xPeke to get Kassadin. We expected it'd make Shushei go for Gragas but he went Talon instead. They had a lot of dash heros like Lee Sin who can jump in. And they did well with them. Lee Sin did so well in the second game and and ganked top so many times. I couldn't kill Talon. GP was always somewhere else. So annoying for me, haha." Joe Joe: "More twitter questions. *advertises his own Twitter* So, Zenon asks, why no Nasus?" Sypher.Skyart: "We know that Fnatic is an early-mid team. They are super good at mid-game. So if you take a late game hero, you use. It is hard to get to late game if they crush you. They have so much team play. I think they will win the finals." Joe Joe: "What do you think of SK v CLG?" Sypher.Skyart: "If CLG let SK get Koggles, SK will win. I bet my hand." Joe Joe: "Heard it hear first, Skyart is going to be handless." Sypher.Skyart: "Haha. I think it will also be a more fair game than the one you just saw. I think it really depends on the picks/bans." Joe Joe: "Why do you prefer Soraka over other supports?" Sypher.Skyart: "Our support player said Talon, Ez and Lee Sin are all full AD. So if you buff Swain at the right time, you can protect him so much from the Talon+Lee Sin burst." Joe Joe: "Who would you rather play for 3rd place? SK or CLG?" Sypher.Skyart: "I have no preference. Never played CLG before. I guess CLG because they are super famous so it would be fun to play. We've played SK more though so it would be a more fair game maybe." Joe Joe: "Anything else?" Sypher.Skyart: "Thanks to Sypher and Ryzenexus, Omer the best beer in the world and SteelSeries the best stuff in the world. Our sponsors let us come here and make it to the Semis." | ||
