My biggest problem with the Eu Metagame is that they just use their junglers as an extra support. While I don't think the jungler should turn into the fourth carry every game, there seems to be zero flexibility in the Euro scene and jungler is just there to support always. Jatt plays a lot of "support" trundle, but it meshes very well with their assassin style. He knows when he needs to do damage though and is perfectly capable of it (see CLG game). I just feel like Jungling is one of the most important aspects of the game and Europe is behind in that regard. Perhaps I'm wrong and supports the way to go since Fnatic is dominating, but I won't like it ^_^ | ||

Carry junglers ideally work with more supportive solo laners that can afford to let them get farm (Zilean, Galio, etc.), but fnatic doesn't play those types of laners, so naturally, carry junglers don't make a ton of sense for them. | ||

I cant find a solid bracket anywhere TSM is out of the tournament losing 0-3 in the group stages to Dignitas, CLG, and Fnatic. From group A, the standings are: Fnatic 3-0 CLG 2-1 Dignitas 1-2 TSM 0-3 The op has all the information you need to know, I recommend re looking at it. | ||

Sorry lol, i have no idea how tournaments like these worked, i figured they would have a second chance in a losers bracket or something, oh well thats a shame. Theyre probably one of my favorite teams atm. | ||

Theyre probably one of my favorite teams atm. IEM tournaments play with a 4 team group stage format. The top 2 teams from each group move on to the playoffs while the bottom 2 are eliminated. Playoffs are single elimination bo3. Winners go on to the finals and the losers play for 3rd. I also really like TSM so I'm hoping they do better in their next showing (might be the Rampage series). Let's see how much they can improve after living together for a few more weeks. | ||

Trundle and Cait did really well together. Dignitas had great mechanics at times, but terrible team-play/synergy. | ||
