I think it's a very weak buy, because the MR it gives you is...IDK...not all that helpful vs. the burst for the investment you put in it, it doesn't build into anything useful, and just sets you back on damage too far to justify the meager MR increase. | ||

TSM's comp is inherently stronger in that regard, so even if VES positioned better, they should have disengaged whenever TSM tried to force. I think they're mechanically competitive but as a team, they make bad decisions and just get out maneuvered. There are lots of players who are mechanically good. That's the point of solo queue, and a pre-requisite to be part of a top team. The bottom 4 teams last season didn't start winning matches until several weeks in, so maybe this is growing pains for VES, but they have a long way to go. | ||

I think it does not matter that it sets you back, if your 5v5 teamfights are so much stronger (due to the teamcomps) that just being safe early on is enough. The only chance for the VES comp was to get picks and snowball with them. With these compositions they did not need a high ap Karthus so quickly. Maybe there are better options that achieve the same though (cataclyst before tear for example). | ||
