Teams need more bans vs EG! :p I thought Renekton was starting to be at the point where it's going to just be a standard ban, seems like the most popular solo top atm. This, pretty much. Since Olaf got nerfed (and he needed it!) Renekton is, hands down, the best top-lane champion. He's basically Olaf with better sustain, better defenses and a little lower overall damage output. Oh, and he takes way less skill to play. This game was decided in picks/bans already - few teams can pull off teamcomps as squishy as the one Giants was running, and surely not against Kayle and Renekton. It's interesting though because then it leaves something like Shen open. Aniviva being a 100% must ban vs EG is pretty powerful I'm not sure any other team has the same kind of priority ban needed. I think it gives EG an advantage before the game even starts.
i think kassadin was banned 100% vs GIANTS too

Then you have not watched many. For example CLG.eu vs WE at IPL5 (game 2) was one of the most exciting games in LoL history.

I think people fear Froggen too much. Yes, he is the best Anivia player in Europe, possibly the world - but unless you pick champs hard-countered by Anivia (hi GG!), she not all that powerful in the current metagame, dominated by health-stacking, gap-closing bruisers. S3 unbalanced the (only allegedly stale - people just shied away from innovation too much) game to a point where I'd rather ban standard OP picks than fairly standard non-OP champs. The only exception would be non-standard picks against players with standout performances (AD Kennen vs Jimbo, Fizz vs Tabzz/Bjergsen etc.)

Triple Dorans Draven is an interesting build that i kind of like (extend Draven's early dominance)
|
Triple DBlades for Hosan's Draven, forcing Caitlyn to do double DBlade herself and still heavily denies her

Seems like a bad idea. I would've rather have seen that vamp scepter bought. It gives more paths later on.

I watched that game, and I only found it exciting because they had to restart it thrice. I mean how is a game exciting where they have to cheer when they kill wards?

It pretty much single handedly started the nerf rango campaign.

DB looking good.
Edit: That zyra ult

Getting Kage's on Taric after Philo seems really bad unless he is going to build twin shadows and even then I still don't like it.
Taric should be a tanky aura bot, not a gp10 collector
