EPT[IEM] Kiev Discussion - Page 174
| Forum Index > LoL Tournaments |
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. Neo, 20.1.2012 | ||

TRM kept trying to trade with shyvana, losing, and having to back out - because he doesn't know when he's stronger or weaker than her. Thats a terrible mistake for a pro player to make, but its also pretty much inevitable when you don't fully know how the other character works. In short, they 100% should be banning shyvana imo, not because she's strong but because they don't know how her well enough. I worry that they aren't because they think banning her is admitting she's strong and they are too stubborn to do that. Also they shouldn't really bother banning APs - Alex is the most versatile player on their team. Diamond on Lee Sin just looked a LOT less strong than diamond on Shyvana. If they banned out GP and Shyv, then their top and jungle would (I think) just be weaker whereas Alex Ich can just play a different character and be okay. My opinion, anyways. | ||

They didn't lose the game because of Galio, Ryze or Gangplank either . . . . . . . . galio was definitely a game-changer with his ult. ryze/gp bans was 'cause of strong showing all tourney by m5 on those champs. that said, i honsetly think shyv ban>galio ban | ||
