EPTFroggen's area control is pretty damn impressive. Makes for great followups with their line-up, considering they have three tanky champions with stuns and gap closers. Meanwhile Yellowpete just shreds through their whole team.

Seems more like they're giving up any chance at aggression at this stage when their comp falls off hard compared to CLG. Just seems really sad to me. Yeah, Kog is benefiting a lot from Anivia. Great synergy. Can't push vs late game Anivia or Kog. And CLG pushes it through and takes the game! GG! @Asnsensation: I think they were planning to use the double global against the Kog+ Anivia. Anivia can't wall vs TF/Noc ult, and both Kog and Anivia don't have an escape on their own other than flash. Of course, CLG were in the lead from the beginning due to Kog's lvl 1 FB. | ||

I'd argue that CLG's supporting heroes are far better early game. Maokai is a better early game ganker than Noc, and Ali is a better support early on. I'd even argue that Irelia is better early game than Vlad. M5's lineup really looked focused on lvl 6 and higher (not late game though). @Zenon: The lvl 1 kill contributed a lot, can't let a Kog get a lead in lane early on. Other than that, their picks just didn't work out. CLG played protect the Kog perfectly, and M5 wasn't able to edge an advantage out in laning phase, where they should have the advantage with double (semi)global ultimate ganks. | ||

TF and Noc ult at lvl 6, that's pretty game breaker from 15-25 minutes. All of the games I've watched with M5, this is around the time when things really spiral out of control. But yeah, in late game, TF and Noc ult are pretty much useless vs that CLG team comp. | ||

He seems to be so stupid compared to any other support player. | ||

Yeah, M5 ran a mid-game comp, not an early game comp. But his point correct in its idea. They were hoping to get kills on Kog with double-ganks from Nocturn and TF globals. Unfortunately, TF was always pushed back by Anivia, and Nocturn was afraid of being counter-jungled by the roaming Irelia and a weirdly agressive Maokai. M5 won the mid-game, but they didn't win it by very much when they needed to absolutely crush it be able to compete with CLG's late game. | ||
