EPTUgh, I wish we'd seen the Caitlyn with Zhonya's on Karthus you were talking about. A 3 man dive onto that would've backfired so unbelievably hard.

Nasus is ultra strong at early dragons, but with the fear of shen joining and zion having no teleport, they could never utilize this. | ||

No, this is where we'll have to disagree. If a game is going for that late, that karthus passive is not enough to justify dying so early in a game that is pass the 45 minute mark especially when he dies out of position. | ||

Holy shit that press-R comp from Crs. That is some serious AoE disable. Oh Saint is on the Zac, that makes a lot more sense. | ||

People complain about me having wild ideas but at least I have the ability to think outside the box enough to realize something as obviously powerful and synergetic as that. In fact if Vlad used pool and Zhonyas near Jintae as well it's quite a bit of Defile dmg. Defile DPS is around half Fiddle ult DPS and then you add in Lay Waste ... Yep definitely don't think that kiting was the way to go at all. In fact, I'm going to argue here that Cait "kiting" and getting 1-2 extra shots off would have been less overall damage than Cait flashing on top of Jintae and instantly dying.

I don't actually like the blitzcrank hooking a kennen once his zhonyas is done, malphite, thresh or zac is just being "helpful" after a while varus feels like the only one where it won't just be a free initiation for crs. | ||

People don't really complain about your ideas, it is how you present your ideas. That attitude needs work. I have nothing against your idea of hourglass on Caitlyn. I recall one of the older LCS game where I said the same thing for doublelift on vayne. | ||

Maybe, but I think they'd be able to back off too quickly if she "instantly" died. If she has Zhonya's like you proposed though it's a whole different story. If Jintae gets Zhonya's too, then it's GG. I still think the biggest problem was not taking a TP against Shen, every fight in the mid game was 4v5 and that's what lost GGU the gold lead in the first place. | ||

IIRC Jintae is the best TF in NA and Crs comp is really weird. Predicting GGU win. | ||

IIRC Jintae is the best TF in NA and Crs comp is really weird. Predicting GGU win. It's like an anti-Blitz comp. Anyone besides Cop is either tanky or has an AoE ult that can punish the pull. I like it. | ||
