Malphite and Rumble are just stronger champs atm. And then there is still his all time favorite Irelia. Oh and btw, against SK's GP Kevin, why does noone pick Riven (the old triangle with GP/Irelia/Riven, remember)? Wickd played a pretty good riven I remember. | ||

Would have been cool if everyone played everyone for the remaining 4 teams, although point wise that is less fair, i guess :D Yeah it sucks for them. But I guess in the end the 3 most deserved teams made it. Initially I wanted SK to get the 4th, but after yesterday I just have to like them. Was just amazing how happy they were. Starting from 3:00. Best winner emotions in the history of esports. | ||

Glad to see them back on form, but I can't be sad at a shakeup for the finals berth - keeps things fresh when A NEW CHALLENGER APPEARS, etc. Fully agree, they were so lack luster yesterday, SK's aggresive play did not get punished a single time. Happy to see CLG going through though, i just think overall they will perform better for EU at the big finals. | ||

GP vs Riven sucks for the Riven. You need to be 100% on top of your reflexes to play around the Parley: Shielding it everytime E is up and staying out of range otherwise. I guess in a stressful tournament environment your attention is already divided enough that it's not worth picking a champ that only counters if played perfectly. (GP can just WE if Riven tries to W and slam her hard) | ||

Oh and btw, against SK's GP Kevin, why does noone pick Riven (the old triangle with GP/Irelia/Riven, remember)? It's all about player's comfort zone and what they've practiced lately. When Darien comes up with GP from nowhere, no one is ready for it. I remember Soaz playing a wicked Nidalee, wish he had practiced it and surprised people with it.Wickd played a pretty good riven I remember. | ||

(GP can just WE if Riven tries to W and slam her hard) If you can do it right though I think Riven just crushes GP. I think it's more of a case of GP being a late pick, Riven not so strong 1 v 2 and God was up. | ||

He says its doable - IF you shield every Parley and stay out of range when your shield is down. IF you instantly flash out of his ulti. IF you immediately turn and run when he comes after you. IF you NEVER engage him 1v1. Yeah, totally "easy". | ||
