Ryze and Rumble have steady dps, no real burst. Ez also ain't bursty like Graves or Corki too. On final note, against tanky mages like Fnatic's, Kog is the best ad carry to have by far. Yeah but lately we almost only saw Corki or Ezreal...
They are like the only adc's with good escapes. If you play kog or varus or someone who no natural escape besides flash you need to play protect the adc game.
edit: I guess graves as a minor escape but it's not the same :p

And Kog is the best scaling carry (only competition is Vayne really, but you need to be Doublelift to play him), so the choice is easy if you want to play protect the ad.

I hope Froggen finally shows a great game as we know it from him.

Ah, this started a little earlier than I'd expected - glad people were LRing this. Is the stream lagging for anybody else? First time I've had problems this weekend.
Very glad a Kog'Maw did well this tournament.
Edit: Wow, has Snoopeh always had a plush Snoopy with sunglasses when he plays? Stylin'.

They're stressballs iirc, referring to the Gangplank meme (oranges and it's k).

Stressballs. With Gangplank on them and the caption "Its k."

Casters dont even mention the role of Malphite that game. Instrumental in protecting Kog with perfect ults every time.
Stream fine for me on 720.

Karthus not banned, maybe well see a good game from Froggen now^^
and leona/ezreal for krepo/pete, they'll show lamia and nrated how it's done^^

Nunu as first pick again.
|
Another Nunu FP? I know they buffed his Q but seriously is there a hidden buff somewhere that made him good enough to warrant a FP?

Blood boil has always been pretty broken :D

He's a versatile pick with regards to where he can lane, and yeah, Blood Boil / Ice Blast are fantastic tools to tip the balance between the AD carries.
Jungle Cho'Gath, yeesh. Not sure of CLG.EU's teamcomp synergy, but I'm willing to be proved wrong. Laneswaps incoming.

He is very very strong in general and is able to fill three roles, making him a very safe first pick since the enemy team doesnt really know where he will go, forcing the enemy team to make two picks "blind".

CHO GATHHHHHHHHH!
Nom Nom Nom.
Also Nunu Jungler. Nom nom nom more!
|
Meh really don't like this at all from CLG. Team comp looks meh and froggen looks really bad on gragas tbh
|
Anyone can list the bans ? Didn't catch them
I don't like Wickd's Renekton, maybe he proves me wrong.
