Played perfectly, I think that Diana (jungle), Malphite, Orianna, Zyra, Miss Fortune/Graves/Ezreal (probably Ezreal) would be incredible. Always perfect AoE engage, never die.

The fact that we're shifting toward a game not about picking/banning OP champs means that a second banning phase would be sensible.
But Riot somehow believes that counter-bans shut down varied teamcomps harder than counter-picks which is flat out not true. You can alter your pick order to suit counter-bans in the second phase, and you can adjust your second-phase bans to prevent counterpicks. But if you get counterpicked, you can't do anything about it once that pick is on the table.

If 10 Blitzcranks stand in a circle and grab the guy to their left, WHAT HAPPENS?!

I think a ban system like the one they have for DotA would be interesting. Not sure what impact it would have on pro LoL but it would make team comps more unique than now.

They've pretty much said they feel it's too complicated and will just confuse non-hardcore players. It's less straight forward, but after one explanation it makes sense. I think they are just making excuses zzz.

If Renekton can shut down Irelia hard enough in lane (assuming no swaps) and Zyra on Diana then M5 is in a good spot.
Last time Renek got played vs Irelia, Irelia got pooped on super hard

5 Teemos, fungal fortress everywhere, zoom zoom around while they are slow as all hell, and split up enough to global taunt just has them running around in circles chasing hallucinations.

Well the variety of picked champions is quite good atm, so in that regard Riots strategy seems do be doing ok.

Not a fan of Hotrod Corki from Cpt Jack, really like Red Baron Corki!

Meh. Lee+Renek? I don't like that comp. :/

He was bashing WE, iG and TPA and previously Korean teams in the LoL forums too iirc. I remember him saying something like WE, iG and TPA being worse than TSM just a month ago.
-__-
Blaze still the strongest team in the tournament along with WE. My prediction of Blaze > TPA in LB finals and a very close WE, Blaze finals still likely imoimo/
