Would you agree, or do you think if they keep the roster as is, they will somehow improve as a team (relative to the top 3)? I wouldn't use only a few weeks to establish a team as anything, Dignitas was doing horribly in the first few weeks. Curse and Dignitas are cemented as top 2 I feel, I can't count on TSM to be consistently top 3 yet though. We'll see what happens with wildturtle.
Does this mean you think CLG has a shot at #3? If so, what odds would you give for that?

But frankly I think that their chemistry was bad enough when they were successful, so now that they are going through a difficult period I don't have much faith in them.

CLG will probably still finish 4th. Although this game against Vulcun is gonna be pretty important.

lol of course people want to bench HSGG.

these analysis videos by phreak are funny, breaking down the dives and everything.
it's probably because these fights happen when one team has 4k/5k gold lead. i think we know why that team won.

lol another top AD "in the world"

is what I would have heard if I used megazeros build. Really? I think it makes a lot of sense lol. I assume most people in soloq would bitch and say something along the lines of: "dude wtf build fucking tanky"
Donno. I almost never criticize someone else's build, because they already built it and whatever I say won't change it.

Congrats, you are way more level headed than a lot of people I've been matched up with playing this game haha.

Liquid112 looks and sounds very professional. I heard he had a bad reputation in the past so I am pretty surprised at how well he present himself.

It sounds like this guy worked at Wall Street.

Those videos are awesome. <3

As much as it would suck, I think CLG needs to move Chauster back to support and kick Aphro. Not that he's playing that badly but they need to be able to compete at an international level in at least 1 area with what they have instead of splitting their strengths around, then they can focus on their other problems next. And having tryouts for jungle would go slightly better than for support.

Oh god, here we go again. Let's hope round 2 goes much better than the first.
