[IEM] Kiev Discussion - Page 110

At any point of IEM Kiev, if you think of an interesting byline, please drop a sentence in the Pro Scene thread. (e.g. "Day 2: M5 hype was everything people expected")

At the end of the month, I'll catalogue the results of Kiev but also any interesting facts or events that happen over the course of the tournament.

Thanks.

What do people think of the whole Wriggle+Doran stacking? The Chinese teams also used this build at IEM last year so it can't be a coincidence. MF actually got an IE this game, but opened Wriggle triple doran zeal zerkers before starting on IE (boots 1 somewhere in the wriggle/doran area).

M5's bottom only looks bad because their other lanes are so good that their bottom looks bad in comparison. When the bottom was on stream it looked like they were trading very well with Candypanda.

I think the Wriggle's+Dorans lets you trade well 1v1 against the other AD, so if you throw a support in on both sides Wriggle + Dorans will come out ahead.

and respect to Ocelote for admitting that M5 is just straight up better

TSM started the whole wriggles trend. They stopped when NA teams started countering it.

I actually thought these games were incredibly exciting. The strategy involved is just amazing.

Ocelot has a great spirit imo, he just admit the obvious : "they are better", but don't feel down for that.

TSM did wriggles instead of doran blades though and then got BF after.

It's like watching a perfect build being carried out by a player in SC/SC2, it's exciting watching how it all connects and work together, especially how hard it stomps someone.

Sleazy is a sub, and is Kevin even definitely in the team now?
