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. Neo, 06.03.2012 |

In the mean time, can't wait for the next set Ocelot is one of my favorite players. CLG's playstyle actually counters M5... CLG might have the best knowledge of counter picking also, super safe early game while dominating all lanes.
the only thing what im worried is dragon timer... CLG never take first drag huehuehue

You realize that the amount of people doing it has nothing to do with it being backdooring or not? It's all about having minions.
Did you even know that in League of Legends there's a slight anti-backdoor system that gives structures additional armor and magic resist when you are attacking them without your own minions around? If you don't know the terms just don't say anything.

Right, I know nothing and you know everything. Forgot who I'm arguing with.

jiji did not miss a single ult that game that wasn't not forced away (saint kicked) or unidentifiable (projectiles going @ chau who was standing on top of jiji as well)
he applied very successful early game pressure which CLG constantly laments the lack thereof
and good lane control (until crumbzz and nyjacky coordinated their ults for a kill after revive, which saint should ideally try to be in position to countergank with wards to see when crumbzz is camping as after nyjacky's ult is down they have 0 kill potential vs him)
a very exciting game, good for nyjacky and jiji fans

He repeatedly died to ganks, and started 0-3. Over and over dying to ganks.

Kind of, one thing I don't get though is why mundo didn't go Frozen Mallet/atmas instead of Atmogs. The guaranteed slow and guaranteed cleaver hits would IMO have been more useful than the extra hp from Warmogs. Maybe he was certain he'd land the cleavers but yeah.

I doubt they just stumbled upon it consider they first picked Mundo/Zilean...

CLG will just trade first dragon for top tower like they do every game. It's a pretty even trade. I'd almost rather have the top tower than dragon tbh.

SV timing the 2 enemies recalling in the brush blindly and going in right when 1 recalled and the other not was my favourite moment! Too bad the casters didnt appreciate how good that was.

So you ace them 5-0, all yours up, but minions are in your base and they have naked nexus. It's backdooring if you attack their nexus. Lolol.
