I don't think you understand extended series. Any tournament with a loser's bracket should do this. It isn't fair that the people that haven't lost a set yet,, if they lose one, is out of the tournament. They deserve the same chance as the people in the loser's bracket got and that is to lose two sets and then be out of the tournament.

It's not extended series, it's double elimination at work. Only fair that if CLG can lose a set to dignitas and still be in, TSM can lose a set to CLG and still be in.

This is what TSM gets for not banning shen and always banning the same people.

If they don't ban Urgot, they get Anivia+Urgot whombo combo. No Yorick = triple Vayne or double CassiOPeia. No Ali ban = Chauster terror bot lane. Wut do. Still have Nidalee, Malphite, Nautilus on permaban as well. =(


But DL's Urgot isn't even scary ~_~

It's the swap into wombo-combo that's scary though D:

IMO, Chauster's Alistar is so damn scary I would've taken the chance on HSGG's Shen too.

Joe had a good point. Instead of banning Shen they could just get Dyrus to run teleport...

If it makes you feel better, Voyboy told xHazzard how to play Malphite and told him to play lots of Malphite at MLG =)


No doubt in my mind that Voyboy would be playing even better than xHazzard. I dunno how anyone who watches competitive LoL could think that Voyboy wouldn't be doing at least even with xHazzard.

Well that was a weird throw.


Just because CLG wins, it's not a throw. TSM did a risky baron(interestingly, TSM is known for it since the beta days) trying to be sneaky. Before this point, it was VERY close. They almost pulled it off, but Hazzard was able to disrupt VERY well. It's why everyone is praising xHazzard there. He made that amazing play happen. Not as good as Chauster's baron ward, but definitely deserved to get the advantage for that courage. He went in around 2-3 seconds before his team got in, which incidentally was the perfect time.

Malphite is a good pick into a team thta doesn't do much ap damage (morg). Eat the ult and maybe a q, have lots of armor and do what you want.

Exactly. If you keep winning in winner's bracket, it's only fair you get a 2nd chance like CLG did in loser's bracket.

Just re-watched the Baron fight. Malphite's ult didn't even hit TOO (did land on 3 though), and TOO was standing at the edge of the pit so he wasn't CC'd. Kog's ult somehow stole Baron before TOO was even able to get a smite off.

edit: TOO did get a smite off. Malphite ult'd -> TOO missed smite -> Kog ult stole Baron.

I've been saying Malphite is sooo stronk top lane for ages now. Such a great champion, just totally shut Ashe down.

GOGO CLG!

Alternatively, as another analogy, think of it as CLG knocking TSM into the loser's bracket with them where they play the Grand-Grand Finals.

I think Voyboy would never play some of the champs that Hazzard does (e.g. Yorick, Malphite) which arguably let them win games they might not have otherwise won with more "standard" Voyboy picks. I guess we'll never know who would have done better anyways.

People just misuse that term instead of using the proper double elimination.

The sub gets a split of the cash though right?
