Hope to see Flame/Ambition or Shy on Jayce now that he's not a priority ban. Would be nice to see if the best Jayce players could find another way to play Jayce with the tear nerfs.
The next two days of Champions is going to be awesome. All four matches have playoff/tiebreak implications, and it'll be cool to see the Rookie Kings CTU go up against one of the Korean Kings in CJ Entus Blaze. If the season ended today, I'd give Riris or NoNamed the Rookie of the Season award, so it'll be cool to see how NoNamed does against Flame. As a Blaze fan I am fearing Riris eating up CptJack in lane phase. I think we could definitely see Hermes and Muse make their Blaze debuts. It'll give them a chance to see if they mesh with the teams before the playoffs.
First place in Group B is quite huge. Whichever team finishes 2nd will have to face SKT, KT/Frost or Ozone in the quarterfinals. If you get first, you'll get KT/Frost, Blast/Falcons, or Shield/Blue/LG-IM #2. A 2/3 chance to get an opponent that are not at the caliber of the current leaders of Korea.

Wow I thought there was a decent fight from IM, then ssumday just annihilated with his sunfire.
Midking should change his name to midserf.
LG-IM 1 disgusts me, how can the team behind MVP/Nestea create such a worthless league team.

Even though they lost can anyone post the corki build that was used in last nights game?

Looks like Chobra will be casting with Locodoco and Bischu while Doa and Monte are away.

Ohh so it's speculation time? 
Well, Maknoon should have time, too...

Every league needs a gatekeeper. The job isn't fabulous; but someone needs to do it.

That's a bit harsh, LG-IM teams are still quite decent, just not on the level as top Champions teams and there's nothing wrong with that. There's bound to be weaker and stronger teams in any given tournament with 16 teams in it.

Their #2 team has a lot of promise. Their drafting seems very solid from what I've seen.

Item build: Starting item: Doran's Blade.
Then: Ruby Crystal, Longsword; Sheen; Trinity force + Boots of Speed; Vampiric Scepter; Berserker's Greaves; BF Sword; Enchantment: Homeguard; Bloodthirster;
Skill order: QWQEQ, then: R > Q > E > W
Summoner spells: Barrier and Flash
Also note that Corki gets exactly 1 AP per level (from masteries of course). As such, he might have taken 8% Magic Penetration mastery too.

Will be very interesting to have Monte+Chobra cast tomorrow!

Going to be weird to watch Chobra in the glorious suit after being used to looking at them beautiful dresses.

I think the worst thing about LG-IM #1 is that they simply haven't improved after almost a year in Champions. Losing Lasha and kicking RingTroll were huge losses, and it put a lot of weight on the shoulders of MidKing, a player who just isn't good enough to stand against the other top mid players in Korea. They just haven't fixed any of their problems and are continually an inconsistent mess.

I would start Hermes/Muse. If they're going to play, this is the perfect chance. Riris and Wolf are a strong bot lane and would be a great test to see if the two could handle being Blaze's starting bot lane. If they fail, then the worst that happens is that they go out 2nd in the group. While they would certainly want first, I think that Hermes and Muse deserve a shot to see if they can steal the starting job for the playoffs.
With Lustboy and more so CptJack, we know what we're going to get. Shitty positioning and first blood in lane, great 5v5 fighting and play calling at the end of games. I mean, just imagine Flame and Ambition if they could have a bot lane that actually won their lane? CptJack and Lustboy actually did that against Frost last season in the playoffs and the games were an absolute joke. Blaze steamrolled. Blaze have possibly the two best solo laners in the world, so while Hermes and Muse don't look like the cure, it would be worth a try.
Wolf played terribly last season, but moved teams, got a new partner and is now a beast. While Madlife is better than Muse, Muse still looked like a top support last season and he might just work better with Hermes than Madlife did. We won't know until they try out.

This highlight reel really lets you appreciate how insane Ganked By Mom's Orianna play was against the Bullets during the second game.
