[IEM] Kiev Discussion - Page 21

Prev 1 19 20 21 22 23 217 Next
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.

Oh boy, SK vs TSM. Predictions, TL? I'll just try not to be biased, or at least have Phreak cancel out my bias.
My modesty is awesome.

I think if Kevin and Bot lane can beast it up again, SK can def beat Solomid. If not, well then it should go in TSM's favour.

Also interesting interviews here. :o

TSM will take it. I'm saying that because SK had so many roster changes in the recent, but i don't know how strong they are at the moment playwise. Just feels like TSM is really serious about winning and they look very strong

What a lot of non jungle players don't seem to understand is that going to gank is more an investment in timing than time. You can't just snap your fingers and come out with an effective gank but you don't want to because those golems aren't going to farm themselves. It really shows in poor jungle players how much time they waste trying to gank lanes that need a gank but they don't pick their time.

I'm thinking SK if they play like they did in the first game against WL but at the same time WL is proving they are not on the same level of any of these teams.

Can go either way.

I just hope people dont bash the loosing team too much. It is just bo1, it really doesnt say that much.
Off-season = best season

I'm gonna say SK will take it. Oce is in top form (his form at tournaments is very changeable), the team is in a great mood, and they're out to prove something. Can't wait for this!

More GG=more skill. Seemingly thats in the air in Ukraine, cause thats what White-ra is telling all the time.

On a side note - gogo SK!
Though we strike at you from the shadows, do not think that we lack the courage to stand in the light.

TSM trashed SK first 3-0 in scrims, but after that I believe they lost their edge.
