I don't understand how you surmised that from this game. The fights that TSM have won consist of a failed tower dive by Azubu, and fights where TSM picks someone off early by someone from Azubu derping and being alone. Has nothing to do with Vlad's late game strength. Which is pretty damn solid.


You can't really threaten the opposing AD carry with a Vladimir. He gets melted. What won the game was Ahri and Maokai imo.

Ahri and Vlad carried pretty hard.

Gave Graves that nice buffer.

Chaox real 1v9.

Vlad is unique in that he can get into the middle of the fight and FORCE the enemy team to switch focus to him.

When they do he simply, pools/zhonyas.

This allows his team to reposition themselves and win the team fight.

Vlad was CRUCIAL to this team comp from Azubu.

Game really spiraled out of TSM's hands after Regi died. From there, TF literally did nothing all game. Even that 5 man TSM gank bot didn't net much gain. All the while, Vlad got monstrous top.

Navi's loving the SOUL SHROUD by Blaze. :D

Pretty hard rollover from Blaze, I only see clg.eu holding this with turtle comp or m5 straight up outplaying them.

this guy hates america or tsm. either one or the other.


What i. One of the biggest tsm fanboys lol but azubus teamcomp was much better and i dont know if u got dr pepper stream too but they had no plan what to do and got lucky that blaze did a stupid towerdive and chaox got all the kills

TSM ran a global gank comp, so Azubu pushed really hard for objectives so they could group, negating TSM's gank comp.

Smart play, but expect TSM to not be caught so offguard.

The only problem with that his range is so short that he usually gets destroyed before anything happens.

Yes, I am biased against Vladimir. I think his mid game is incredibly strong, but his teamfight utility is pretty poor (he can only do some damage and be somewhat annoying). And yes I do know what his ult does.

Both teams started to make quite a few mistakes after Azubu played a really nice early game: Dyrus rarely ultimated the really fed corki (mostly ulted himself) Chaox got overeager and wasted his flash/got caught too hard last fight. Azubu obviously shouldnt let TSM come back that hard and nearly take it (considering Azubu had the in my opinion better teamfighting composition it was still acceptable)

Overall I think it was mainly that Reginald didnt do anything throughout the whole game his early ganks didnt do much he didnt got a single kill out of them (when they ganked with 5 ppl bot for getting the drake he got a single assist I think) plus not banning Ahri (didnt watch the bans but that just seems straight up stupid) cost them mainly the game (besides well executed pushing by Azubu which really shut down TFs ganking potential)

Edit: overall for entertainment purpose probably good to watch game because it got pulled around a bit and nearly managed a comeback but filled with quite big mistakes all around (yes I dont like badly executed games )
One interesting thing the commentators said: 73% of the games where 2 inhibs are down are lost by that team. That number is really low, that means that 27% of the games are WON while being 2 inhibs down Oo

Well TF was a stupid pick. It was funny how the rest of TSM was all "are you REALLY sure you want TF?" in voicechat and Regi insisted.
