even w/o that invade, GG would still lose that one. just stupid picks overall

never get this Nasus pick, they won games with him, but he never won them the games.

Nasus was lvl 1 at 4 minutes because of that invade.We really can't talk how game could've gone if it wasn't for it.

EG never called themselves BEST team in the world. M5 did. if you make a claim you better back it up. especially when you are losing to the team that mayyyyyy be top 5. if this was world elite i woudlnt be nearly as upset, but these are people who almost lost to millennium . if you dont win against them on the 2nd biggest stage in lol wtf are you going to do in season 3 finals?

this is gonna blow your mind, but even Flash and MVP have been known to lose once in a while.

lol I think you are the madest fan I've ever seen i the LoL forum not sure if it's ironic or understandable since you're like the only person I've ever the seen sporting the "russian federation" tag here. You seem to take it personal that Frost beat GG, like the chinese forum people do when WE beats iG or vice versa.

While I'm sad that GG lost this, it's still 2:1. Not sure if people really expected GG to completely stomp them again like @ Katowice.

I do quesiton Genja's stubborness to stick with ghost vs skarner/olaf and the TF pick though, especially considering that they were thinking of Ryze first and Ryze does pretty well vs Khazix and is one of Alex's best champs.

EXACTLY. that TF pick that NEVER did anything, Genja's summoners. My problem is that FROST hasnt shown ANYTHING truly innovative or special. they won by being boring and stable because gambit 1st had wrong picks and 2nd had wrong plays after that 1st blood. game was lost in first 3-4 minutes
it is personal- have you ever watched soccer with a European person? its like that, they are effectively a national team. they are the ONLY Russian team.

I feel like the casters took every opportunity they could to say "FatMamma" during the millenium games.

Frost deserves it when GG has such a homefield advantage. Literally it got to the point where the audience would literally only clap or cheer during GG kills and immediately stop if any kills arose on the other team. @_@.

Always disappoints me when top tier teams lose matches due to "preparation". ;_; I guess you can also chalk it off to greed, got away with FB but doesn't base. ok...

I like Blaze/Frost the most out of the Korean teams but frankly I was cheering for Gambit again to keep things interesting. Game 3 picks made me facepalm.

Yeah I'm hearing almost nothing from the crowd when cjf is getting a kill. Looks like the better team wins.

Gambit Gaming is the great European hope, playing in Europe, in a final 4 that was 3 Korean teams + Gambit. Obvious response was obvious. I don't follow LoL a lot but it was only a matter of time before Gambit's streak vs. Korean teams ended. It's the other EU / NA teams that need to step it up. What even happened to Fnatic and CLG.eu-now-EG?

EG and Fnatic both got knocked out of group stage. zzz
They're going through a rough patch I guess. EG, possibly the worst I've seen them since ever?

EG doesnt' seem to have team cohesion lately. I don't know why but I always get the feeling that their team seems annoyed at Froggen. Snoopeh is always unbelievably poor for a jungler. Like he's not even 4th position. He's like 5.5 position.

I think Gambit was playing out of their comfort zone when they started invading. It worked well in game 2 but really screwed them over game 3. I also can't help but feel that they didn't feel confident enough playing straight up thus they resorted to invading. Invading on blue side is also generally more unnecessary than invading on red side.

Problem is with EG they still expect to win through froggen dominating or team fight turtling to victory. Game has changed and even the mid tier to low tier teams have caught on. You can't just sit and farm in your lanes passively anymore.
