The other ~80 all about comfort, playstyles, and drafting intelligently. By and large people saying champs are bad are totally misjudging them.

I think 20 is a bit too much.
I'm thinking:
Sejuani
Zed
Tryndamere
Volibear
Talon
Karma
Leblanc
Rammus
Fiora
Galio (unless CLG support Galio makes a comeback? Though Loco still needs to learn regular supports so doubt it)
Brand


Then there's really situational picks but I don't think it's fair to say they shouldn't see competitive play, hell look at the recent AP Yi, GP, and Nasus picks.

Heimer
AP Master Yi
Gankplank
AD Sion
Nasus
Mordekaiser
Poppy

Fizz gets a special placement because he's viable but no one plays him, at least in my opinion.

Swain probably also goes somewhere in the second list.

I agree that Fizz is viable too. I think it's because only Tabzz knows how actually to play him.


Could we not say that Karma would go on the 2nd line aswell? Seeing as SGS have their own comp built around having her in midlane together with a shield heavy team (didnt work in IPL it seems, but they took a game of TPA in the GPL finals with it, and a stronger mechanical team would probably have even more success with it).
I also recall YTJM (old WE jungler) telling me, back when they were in Korea for OGN, that Sejuani was the most broken jungler in competitive play. Then again their might be a reason he isnt on WE anymore

Noticed Syndra is absent from the list, opinions on her?

That's 'cause he forgot her, which should tell you about where he'd put her.

I think Crs and M5 are destined to play each other again. weird feeling crs can get the upset vs TPA


TPA are way too strong for that to happen. I can't imagine that at all. Most NA teams suffer from so much inconsistency in their play. It's kinda ridiculous how refined the Asian teams are.


On Jacky's back I wouldn't say it's impossible. Man that guy is going to be #1 NA cutest superstar

Rhux involved with 19 of the 21 kills, very impressive.
Kat also involved with 19 of the 21 kills.
Just very good team fighting, and grouping by crs.na
Cop is like 10/12 for arrows as well.

Is Crs.eu really going from winning TotL to losing to Crs.na? =/

no it's from the high of being supremely prepared for Totl, then having no practice then, getting smashed at dreamhack to losing your support for not practicing, to low of then getting beat by Crs.na.

These ults are pretty amazing. Probably their best game of the tournament. I doubt it will carry over to their other rounds, but nice to see them perform well.
