For SKT, it's fairly reasonable considering the Lemondogs lvl 1 strat and Lovelin's crazy dive, but for Ozone, I think it's a bit more telling of weakness. A lot of this has to do with their weak lane picks, but yeah they've played really poorly. | ||

You could chalk it up to a lot of possible reasons (arrogance, trying to scout their opponents, stupidity, poor understanding of how to play this version), but regardless of which one it is, it shouldn't be surprising that the Korean teams have ended up on the back foot in their lanes given how they've drafted. | ||

I like Jatt up there with DoA/Monte as my favorite english commentators by far. | ||

Fair enough, it does make more sense thinking back on the bot lane matchups in retrospect. Although, I have to say that I hate gragas picks every time I see them, for some random internal reasons. He seems to be really poor when the team is behind. | ||

Used to be my favorite color caster but now he makes quite a lot of mistakes, maybe Riv is rubbing off on him | ||

Now that justifies questioning his sponsors and calling them an embarrassment before they're even out the tournament It definitely worrisome. If you spend that kind of money on a team, especially expecting the best in Korea, and what you end up getting is a team that's around as good as a #2-3 NA team? I mean sure, Vulcun is pretty good, but when you spending 500k + player income + expenses + etc, you want the world's best, not the world's average. | ||

I don't have a problem with Rivington pointing out things happening on the map(although I hate his voice), but when he gets into predicting the outcome of ganks or he starts describing game strategy for either team it makes me want to turn the stream off. Also I never want to hear Rivington refer to Nasus and Renekton as the "bash brothers" ever again, it makes me cringe. | ||

He doesn't win any lane but he really doesn't lose any lane hard either. He's also a pick that's very resilient when you expect multiple lane swaps, since you can swap him into pretty much any lane and expect him to do OK, which makes it easier for you to get good matchups for your other 2 lanes. | ||
