At any point of IEM Season 6 Championship, if you think of an interesting byline, please drop a sentence in the Pro Scene thread.

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

Thanks.

Lets be honest guys- TRM could have been ANYONE this game and he still would have lost just as badly as he did. SK just took him out of the game because Regi took himself out.

I could kind of agree, Reginald has been playíng godawful. I mean I'm not a good player but there's only so much Galio can do. Cassiopeia definitely should be able to farm the midlane especially with Galio roaming that much. Even without blues you can get nearly 100% of the minions with just autos, especially freefarming you should get it all(And I actually do this so I definitely am qualified to say that). He's just playing incredibly bad. He should be at like 300 minions.


TRM derped hard and got firstblooded, that's a problem. However I still think TOO should have camped top. Even if TRM was another player, Udyr stomps on Irelia hard. I don't get why we didn't see more Shen ganks. Another one is that Regi should follow Galio when he goes to camp Irelia. They didn't even ward the river entrance I guess, and Regi didn't ward behind the river at the entrance to wraiths, which was another mistake.

I don't really get what they're thinking. I still think that Graves IE > Kog with Zeal and Lantern, but it's not enough of an advantage to be able to win that. Regi should have been getting like 200+ minions by 20min with all the space he got, and TOO should have been camping top far more because regardless of how good TRM is, Irelia vs Udyr is just about impossible.

Still Zerkers are retarded and both Tabi or Mercs would have helped a ton, if only for surviving those dives until shen ulti finished.

Meh, I think a lot of the talk that TSM is garbage now is somewhat ridiculous.

M5 won obviously, by TSM stomped Kiev. Absolutely destroyed everyone, including teams like Dignitas who are first seed here.

TSM obviously played really really badly here, but I think people are overstating their problems.


How so?
EHOME was a joke team, Sypher did little better. WInning against 2 C class teams doesnt matter for anything when you get crushed by the rest.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Edit - Because playing badly at a tournament does not mean that a team is terrible or will not perform better later.

Except in the real world, Drago actually punches a hole in Rocky's head and goes back to Syberia.

It's not just this tournament though. Their scrims since Kiev have been abysmal. Infighting and everything else combined, it just seems like they have begun to fall off. I know scrims can hardly mean a thing, but the evidence is pretty strong. Who really knows what happens, but I just haven't had the same feeling about TSM as a fan as I did in the past.
This is well below quality expected of a post in any forum. -Empyrean

Picking Irelia so early was an awful idea. Udyr was a beautiful pick by SK, since he is probably the second best counter to Irelia.

Nocturne+udyr was just so ridiculous. TRM hugged turret and couldn't get a kill off. Just the way Irelia works unfortunately. She needs farm and doesn't become god mode until around mid game when she has 3 or 4 items.

I'm really hoping the winner of this event is either CLG or aAa.

Rage much? This is just another example of server superiority... CLG.na is the only team that can handle the europeans.
- trm might be their weakest player, but regi has had some awesome games; didn't seem to be his tournament this time around and as for theoddone, well maybe he should've went for one of his more standard picks... But it's hard to help your team when ever lane is getting so heavilly dominated (yeah including bott lane post dragon.)

I think that this game was pretty much won in the picking phase; cassio vs galio (ocelette playing vs HIS champion??), irelia vs udyr, even the shen pick didn't really make that much sense (though some)... Whatever but it was either going to be Crs or TSM through to the brackets, not both, not with M5 and SK ;o.

It'd been harder to critcise if TRM could farm under turret with the best champion in the game for it.

Since Kiev, what has TSM done? Don't get me wrong, they're my favorite team that actually plays in tournaments(I'm looking at you EG *sigh*), but they haven't done anything since Kiev except decline.

Teams aren't going to lay down because of an old reputation. Their reputation now is "we can't control our jungle so our solos are pushovers."

I think the whole problem is the format of gaming house they have in TSM. Gaming Houses without managers don't seem to work very well (EG Lair lacks results - PuMa is the only one of EG with good recent results and he is living in the SlayerS house).
They lack the discipline.

Missed first part of interview.

Rivington: ???
Ocelote: It's really all about the Irelia pick. You just have to gank her and pick well and then she;s useless. It's not a Rainman thing, it's an Irelia thing. You just gotta gank her. She's going to lose the lane so fucking hard, lol.
Rivington: That lane was so tough for you. You kept getting ganked, and even coming around from the Blue Brush.
Rainman: After the level 4 gank, it was over for me. Udyr got so strong, and then there was nothing I could do from there.
Rivington: Were you expecting that first gank? You dashed, got out, and then Flashed but then they double Flashed to kill you.
Rainman: No, definitely not expecting that. Once that happened, I was put really behind.
Rivington: So how were the picks decided? For example, you picked Galio but never really played him before.
Rainman: We've been practising Galio recently and we wanted to save him for a special event. And he just fit in well in this team comp, such as against Cassiopeia.
Rivington: So how was your comp designed to beat them then?
Rainman: Our goal was to stall and wait for late game with Shen but we never got to lategame. So yeah.
It's like, "Is the Federation's Mobile Suit some kind of monster?"

Meh. CLG and Dig went a combined 7-1 yesterday against Europeans. Bigger problem is that TSM literally have been broken since Kiev.
