I'm watching Fnatic vs TPA (that feature is really good btw) and wow, Vayne aggros Graves bot? TF and Shen immediatly ult there and Mundo rushes to them. 2v2 turning into 2v5 instantly. Ouch.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

I think CLG has a decent shot of beating Fnatic. Fnatic did play well but overall I think TPA was off their game and they were caught offguard by some of Fnatics picks. TPA also picked poorly. Toyz on TF and Diana doesn't fit his playstyle very well. With Ori/Aniv banned I think he should have picked Karthus or Vlad instead.

The one team I think CLG.NA can not beat under any circumstance is WE. WE is like CLG with a better bot lane (double and WX are somewhat even but support isn't even close) and better mid lane. They have a poor record against them historically.

That being said, I think CLG.EU actually matches up pretty well with WE. I feel like CLG.EU does better against asian teams than M5/TSM/whoever because they are very confident playing from behind. Asian teams greatest strength is getting early advantage through out-CSing and killing towers. Asian teams in general biggest weakness is they like to throw games which is how CLG.EU usually wins.. survive early game then wait for opponent to make mistakes.

To be honest, TPA played a bit ... questionably. They're good if you're a Fnatic fan since they've been considered a free win this tourney.


??

i don't think anybody who has been following LoL much in the past couple of weeks considers fnatic a free win. they've had some really good results.

Weren't there plenty of users who laughed when I posted Loco predicting a Fnatic win over TPA?

Chauster say they can handle Fnatic.

If you think that, you are clueless as fuck. Get out of your mind of the Fnatic with Shushei/Season 1. This is an entirely new team, just old brand name.

Yeah, Fnatic's problem was keeping Shushei on the team long after he showed no willingness to practice.

TSM vs Blaze was good. and CLG.NA's games were good as well. Fnatic vs TPA is a must watch though.

CLGna in the last few months has resorted to cheesy weird shit. Maybe it's because they like to "think outside of the box" or they don't like playing standard or maybe they don't think they can play standard against other teams or maybe they think that innovative strats are the way to play league. I don't know, I'm not on their team. But since they like to do weird shit that teams aren't always ready for it usually falls on to their opponents to adapt to it. More often then not, when they do something weird they tend to get lax and stop pushing advantages. Allowing their opponents to come back. In some occasions their opponents respond properly and shut down the entire strategy.

With a team like that they could definitely beat Fnatic if they run one of their weird comps or strategies. Even straight up, I'm sure bot lane will be in CLGna's favor or at least go even. Mid lane will probably go to Xpeke but jiji rarely loses lane hard enough for the game to be lost. Chauster is pretty solid in the jungle. Top lane's gonna be the only real weak point imo. CLG beating Fnatic will depend entirely on Hotshot playing smart and/or Fnatic responding poorly to cheese strats.

I never rule out CLG.na, obviously they're not the favorites to win the match, but they definitely have a chance.
in doublelift and chauster I believe. need more pentakills.

They've said they've completely dropped cheese until they can play standard with the new roster. Considering they haven't practiced any cheese, I doubt we're going to see anything wacky.
