[IEM] Kiev Discussion - Page 25

Prev 1 23 24 25 26 27 217 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.

Regi derps sometimes but tbh, there's little skill to Sion. He's very basic as a AP mid.
Sion's a great counterpick to LB though.

Ok im a noob im watching SC2 on mute cuz I understand it and I have LoL with some commentary. Anything i should be looking to in terms of learning wth is going on lol



For pro games the exciting part is the map objectives. Teams try to gain an advantage which lets them kill dragon which snowballs into a bigger lead into a baron kill which is a huge benefit. Jungle ganks and stealing buffs/killing champs with buffs are a big part. Often times a team fucks up and tries to dragon when they can't and get punished etc.

Also on basic comp, the bottom lane is the attack damage carry with a support who doesn't take any farm. Mid lane is the ability power carry, top lane is a mixed bruiser type and a jungler farms the neutrals and ganks lanes. You should be able to pick up from commentary/gameplay which is which.


And Carry is someone who is meant to do a lot of damage in the long run but needs to be protected super early on i take it?

Supports are more self sustaining they don't die as fast and are less reliant on items so need less gold?

Junglers are a pretty simple concept they make their money killing neutral monsters and are meant to just pop up and kill someone out of position? I would guess more the carries since if you kill them often enough you can delay their farm and item purchasing (which they rely on??)

How the hell do you not run flash vs Rammus ganks?
Only the weak link is strong enough to break the chain.

Rammus is just so good VS Vayne, they're right to pick him over Maokai. Maokai ult doesn't work on Vayne's true damage iirc >.>

This game really feels like a CandyCarry game though :p

Although i've seen a game (i think against CLG.eu) where rainman was basically carrying with teemo, just the rest of their lanes lost to CLG.eu Rainman was quite hard to deal with.

Dont like the Teemo pick at all.
Yeah hes great on lane, but later on not so much.

Overall late game looking much better for SK, early for TSM.
Off-season = best season

Carries focus on damage so they're generally squishy. Also, if you can fuck them up early on in a snowballing lane (solo in a long one for example, easing zoning once one's ahead) it can have a huge impact, thus why they're generally babysat by a support so they can farm safely until they've got their godmode items.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.
