Keep the rage to a minimum. This includes wait times between games, music, and balance.

Fair warning to all.

It's interesting looking at the difference between how teams drafted at TI2 and how they draft at LoL WC. I mean you have those awesome Navi moments of LoH laughing and puppey doing screen pointing. Okes need to get more into it!


A big part of it is the more "static" teams of LoL. there are a lot less lane options being used and without a second ban phase you cant react to the sorta team your enemy is building.

Ez/Taric vs Graves/Blitz? That seems odd to me.

Speaking of Odd, Maokai. Finally.

I like this team comp a lot better for TSM. Let's see how they stand up against Frost now. Hoping for a game 3.

Whats the point of darius against jayce.Jayce won top convincingly and snowballed hard.


Chauster also thinks that Darius is a good pick against Jayce, I think Dyrus just got outplayed.

Except that Darius is actually a horrible pick vs Jayce

except its not and both westrice and dyrus said in on their stream (funny how elo hell people think they know better that pros lol), the lane snowballed after the fb

Thats why both of them lost their lanes - and would have lost regardless of jungle ganks.

Good to know you can actually think for yourself.

you are clueless and ignorant

Katarina probably does well against their plan so they banned her.

Game 1 was a 25 minute stomp.
Game 2 was back and forth with some fantastic plays from both sides.

Also to be fair no one on TSM is that known as being super scary with 1 champion like Froggen for example is.

So the smart way

banning a champ your opponent doesn't play doesn't seem smart. i'd call it the safe/conservative way

I figured it out - the last two champs Regi played in solo queue were Ori and Kat. Frost just quickly looked at his profile to decide what to ban.
