[IEM] Kiev Discussion - Page 201

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.

Everyone hating on RM is pathetic. They most likely don't let him pick whatever he wants in a 3rd game of a Bo3 of an IEM finals. It was a team decision most likely, so it was TSM fucking up there, not him all by himself.


No it probably wasn't. I guarantee you he asked for Irelia.

Yeah, I agree with this. I'm not sure why TRM takes the sole blame for Irelia pick, there's no way he made that on his own. I don't think he played particularly well this game, though.
Zero fighting.

TSM may have team picked Irelia but then Rain Man should have to competency to say "fuck no, game 1, Shy raped me anally. Not a second time plz".

So, is Shyvanna just broken? Or was Irelia just a horrible choice to counterlane?

M5 treats jungle buffs as a 'free' champion kill.

You can do the same shit with udyr lol.This shyvana hype is just annoying.


If you catch udyr in your jungle you can kill him way easier then shyvana who is faster and can ult across walls if flash is down.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Same. Jungle changes proved to be really nice and even most obscure (Shy, AD Kennen?) champions keep catching us off guard. I love it.

Well, kinda.

TSM may have team picked Irelia but then Rain Man should have to competency to say "fuck no, game 1, Shy raped me anally. Not a second time plz".

And vice versa, if he called Irelia, they should have reminded him how that went in game 1. Still a bad team decision in my eyes.

Also, top lane is Rock, Paper, Scissors. Rainman should know this and know that it's not worth losing lane and jungle just for some fanciful team comp that will collapse on itself.

I think TSM really needs to group. Or maybe group 10 min ago. Because M5 is just toooo mobile.
