The discrepancy between challenger and LCS teams is pretty huge. Just look at how hard Coast romped on teams during the off season and how they're doing now. LMQ getting new roster if they get into LCS tho.

He's on a shortlist of good toplaners in NA though; so it's not too far from truth. | ||

Uzi mid didn't seem really good, if he was ADC again it'd be great but since he can't play without tabe it's pretty meh. I really don't think uzi will actually be an improvement that much over xaiowexaio if they really bring him over. Maybe he'll do better on a different team from zombie royal idk. | ||

Your evidence involves the use of the NA challenger scene. I hope you realize this is the same scene that gets dumpstered by coast. | ||

Yeah I don't think anyone can jump the gun and call it "evidence" of how good they are. They do seem to be doing better than Coast and I would guess they could beat Coast pretty easily in a bo5, but at the same time I don't think it makes sense to call them beating challenger teams "evidence". | ||

Jokes aside, you are right, it's incredibly hard to judge when there aren't any head to head results. There were those Ranked 5s games they played against TSM and they won one and lost two but that's much different than a real competitive environment. They are at least better than Quantic... | ||

Global means it's going to be strong with some comps. zzz I actually feel TF was legit strong in S3. The difference I feel about TF and Pantheon is that TF has a very smooth transition into the late game. TF scaled fairly well and his W provides a lot of CC for the team at a distance. TF is also AP so Zhonya's is available. Pantheon is melee yet he is sort of an assassin; he is a lot harder to itemize and his late game is a bit bland. | ||
