If you have any questions you want to ask C9 Meteos, PM Neo in the next 24 hours. Interview will be conducted this weekend. |

C9 is really what the NA scene needs. They really exemplify the raison d'être of the LCS, bringing the game to the next level. Their existence as a dominating power should force other teams to step up, and inspire others to give it a shot.
inb4 C9 bombs for the rest of LCS and I look like an idiot.
I feel like the main different between them and most NA teams is that their ADC isn't this huge farm sink. Mid+Jungle(Sometimes top) become the big farmers where their ADC gets what he can instead of other way around. It's basically how other regions play instead of this huge focus on ADC

Cop's skill aside, I feel this game showed why Draven isn't really used outside of NA. If you don't get fed early (which happens often in NA), going all in in teamfights is way too dangerous. Way too punishable and targetable.
Generally yes but if cop didn't do a no boots build on an ad that relies on being mobile he could've killed all 4 that teamfight.That's like going no boots on vayne but worse.It was obvious he was planning to just afk and hope edward gets a grab so he can burst instead of actually being an ad.He is too used to playing shit like mf.

Ahahahahaha...Cop needs to die.

C9 looks pretty stronk to me. Don't know if it is because the opposition is weak, but the way they IMMEDIATELY capitalize whenever they see an advantage was pretty impressive to me.
Their willingness to dive is unparalleled in the NA LCS

Because NA teams don't have the technical skill to punish teams for playing him and just feed him kills or focus incorrectly (generally).

Curse really has a terrible teamfight comp as opposed to C9. Blitz+Mao is just not enough cc for draven to auto comfortably.
Their team is obviously not a team fighting team. But they should have look for picks with a 10-1 kills advantage with a TF + Elise split push. But they decided to team fight and throw for some reason. I mean 10-1 kill advantage with a fed Elise + TF should mean guaranteed win. While I was watching the game, Edward did a great job with roaming/making plays with Blitz but I felt almost zero map presence with Nyjacky's TF. How does Blitz have bigger map presence than a TF?
I have no idea. NA's game strategy is so one dimensional. It is consists really only of laning phase into team fighting/objective phase.
Koreans are so much more studied and advanced in terms of team oriented goals, strategies and knowledge of game play (abusing advantages, using map presence as a threat, snowballing, objective control, etc). But not only that, they are mechanically superior. That's why TF is such a threat in Korea because TF is epitome of all that is Korean high level play. NA (excluding C9 atm - yet to be seen) will never be able to utilize TF fully (that's why NA gets shit on when even if they have TF) with poor team coordination, game knowledge, pressure
If this is continued, I see West vs Korean BW level of seperation here. C9 is really the only hope for NA; let's hope they practice and continue to model and learn from koreans.

Balls reminds me of Villager from the new SSB, there is the mind of a cold, calculated killer in there.

When I saw the 1-6 and one tower behind I just said "fuck it" and fired up soloQ, while keeping the audio. Looks like I shouldn't have, this time.

I think that CLG game is showing that GA should be nearly a must buy after 40-45 min now that I am looking at Kobe showing the recap.
