GG TSM!

honestly, I'm very disappointed by the observer for the final fight. Xpecial managed to keep Chaox alive against Malph+Rumble. Must've been some pretty pro moves, but the obs was too confused and we didn't get to see anything :[

With Corki's lifesteal, he can keep himself alive against Rumble and Malph. Sorara just makes it even more obnoxious with her Aegis and passive. Needs a co-ordinated effort to take him down. he fight became really stretched out though from the nexus towers to the base entrance and that's all TSM needed.

What a close game! So much back and forth, it's too bad SGS lost due to some mistakes, which I believe is due to inexperience, but still a good showing.

Curse running Vlad 2v1 against WE. Is Vlad good in a 2v1? He's up against Graves-Lulu but that just seems to be rough for him.

It helps that SV is constantly ganking that lane.

He's really not that awkward, but that interview was terrible. First rule of interviewing is not to ask questions that lead to one word answers:

"Why's that" "I died"
"How did that make you feel" "Bad"
"Did you feel prepared for the asian teams or did you think you'd lose" "Maybe not prepared, but didn't think we'd lose"

Need to ask more questions like:
Walk us through that last game, especially when you got caught in bottom.
What lessons did you learn from playing Azubu Blaze, and how have you incorporated those into your play here?
You get Legion up next, have you been able to watch any of their games? How will you be able to stop them?

More open-ended questions = better. When you ask closed-off questions you end up making your interviewee look awkward.

The interviewer did ask a very similar question as the one you listed: "What lessons did you learn from playing Azubu Blaze, and how have you incorporated those into your play here?"
Chaox replied: "Prioritize towers" "Just small adjustments, prioritize towers"

I didn't get the exact wording of the question, and it was similar, but it was subtly different. Because Chaox answered it with "Well, they play pretty standard, they just prioritize towers". That didn't touch on what they learned and gained from it, it was more about what makes them so hard to play against/how standard they are or are not.

Subtle but it makes the difference in these interviews.

EDIT: Regardless, best interview is always TOO. He should do all interviews, haha.
