I actually prefer Diamondprox as a jungler too. Like you said inSec's contribution to victory was adequate, no more, no less, Ambition was the best player in this game by quite a margin. Diamondprox did better than inSec, but he didn't really amaze me this game either.

I see Madlife picking up Thresh or Blitz and showing Edward how it's done. See probably Diana, TF and Jayce banned. I guess they could ban Lee Sin, but Insec's champion pool is way too deep. I expect hooks from Madlife in game two.

I love how EU fans were telling everyone how Edward compares to Madlife and I just saw him get completely dominated support wise and Madlife was an absolute monster in those fights. His control/map presence and initiates were just ridiculous, and Edward was downright awful on Blitz.
Am I the only one that saw Madlife "miss" wards and then think when they did Baron that he did it purposely? That way he'd know where EU had vision, EU thinks Baron was safe and Korea could take it without having a problem. This is a guy most known for his vision control, I don't see him missing those wards with an Oracles.

Too bad that he has such a bad team lol what a joke ^^ As I thought EU playing really bad, Soaz was decent despite losing his lane, Diamond was a beast, but Alex, YP, Edward failed pretty hard. I'm especially disappointed by Alex :/ Yeah, Kennen and blitz were bad pick to be fair. If EU had managed to layer those Ults properly it could have been a very different game. The problem is they didn't.
First Dragon fight, sOAZ burns Equaliser on Alistair ASAP which doesn't kill him, and now they're down an Ult while the KR team all proceeds to funnel into Dragon area. It's all downhill from there as the remaining Ults don't get chained either.
Second Dragon fight, they think they've caught Madlife again, but he just Headbutt-Pulvs right into them and KR engages onto them. EU tries to panic use spells but this means Kennen just gets knocked away by Lee Sin and everyone calmly walks off Equaliser. Don't think Varus even used his Ult. And again all downhill from here.

Insec was spot on in teamfights, he did much better than diamond when it mattered in 5v5s

Alex did not get more farm. Ambition took blue and wraith almost all the time while Alex did not.

Korea's coordination in teamfights was pretty impressive especially considering the time they had. Also mid and top won pretty hard eventhough getting killed by diamond several times. Mechanics op.
Let's see which champs EU picks up now.
Also Godlife, zoning everyone, always, as support.

Damn Team Korea sooo good Ambition has so much cs, Good plays from Madlife, and inSec.

That is more to do with the champion than any fault of Alex. Jayce can clear wraiths quickly and efficiently unlike kennen.

That's the only reason I can't root for any EU teams (despite me liking individual players). Their fanboys put them on such a ridiculous pedestal.

That was my point. I did not think Alex was innately outplayed as much as on a champ that is not typically his style. It was a comp and gameplan that they clearly planned out to try to throw OGN off it's game.

lol these discussions are pretty heated considering that the favorites won all the matches played so far. Imagine what crapfest NA vs EU will spawn on message boards.

EU problems:
1. alex losing out on cs for no good reason 2. opting for a (successful) gank on Shy and losing out on dragon as a result 3. hooking alistar. really? 4. yellowpete. meh
KR problems:
1. PraY missing out on CS at the start, though it's forgivable considering the expense edward went through with pinks to deny vision / threaten stealth eve ganks 2. PraY missing lots of Q's
other than that everyone played really well. i'd like to highlight madlife's subtle but significant contribution in peeling as well as making himself available as an early initial target during teamfights to soak damage. props go to inSec for great initiations / kennen kickaways as well as jayce with mad CS. also Shy for opening himself up to a gank so that his team could nab a dragon

Here is the thing : if you land those hook with blitz, then he is a god, but if you don't, then you are the fucking worst support in the game.

Yeah we didn't really see him do anything during laning. but he was a monster in teamfights -.. amazing execution

Kind of hard to move on when everyone is hyping how Diamond is so much better than Insec based on his early game. Too bad there's more than 1 phase in the game and Diamond failed to deliver in the latter portions whereas insec did not.
