They are still performing better than TSM. But, they seem to be...not doing what we would have expected from a team together this long.

IDK. Just felt so sad watching them today.

Man, they fucking deserve it. Get overhyped as the best team ever when they have less LAN experience than teams that have been around for half the time they have.

They're good. Comparing them to TSM is wrong imo as they're miles ahead of them. But they might be the most overrated team since 2010 CLG.

If you are talking about clg.eu vs. TSM match where tsm firstpicked Skarner, I think Froggen doesn't play Katarina, so while it revealed the teamcomp that TSM was likely to eventually run clg.eu couldn't really prevent that. It still didn't say anything about the lanes which is the nice thing about FPing a jungler.

who?
M5 attended pretty much all the Euro Lans ever since January 2011 except for the recent Dreamhack

which team has more Lan Exp and was founded mid 2011

also I wouldnt call top 4 overrated when even the asian teams said that they consider M5 a super strong, it's just that they are slumping recently and their style got kinda figured out ( lee sin ban 100% now) and they have to think of new stuff to do.

In fairness, Lilballz has also come back and stayed relevant in games where he chain-lost 2 Oracle's as Tiger Udyr. He's just generally good at playing from behind.

Thats why many teams have picked him. Always useful champ. Some top teams (e.g. TPA, CLG.EU) love him for a good reason.

Misaya and Froggen more or less showing that their reputations on their signature champs are well-earned.

I agree that there are a lot of junglers better than skarner right now and if you're gonna pick him, first picking skarner is nothing short of idiotic. I don't know what TSM was planning with that comp but it was horrible each time they ran it. I think the skarner picks are mosly because people aren't as comfortable with other junglers. Aside from the traditional tourney junglers that people usually pick over skarner. I'd consider cho, hecarim, xin, olaf as stronger champions and junglers. I'd consider cho to be better in every aspect.
