he's been on the downswing for awhile, and since it became easier to play support in many ways, he doesn't shine above others as much as he used to through things like vision and map control

To eliminate side advantage in picks/bans. Also it still requires skill, it lets teams play their ideal team comps. Also it's exciting because it doesn't happen all that often.

There are also a ton of mind games going on behind blind pick, whether to pick a certain strong hero but not being confident in the lane matchup, whether to anticipate likely picks and try to counter, etc.

And mirror matchups give players a chance to demonstrate raw skill aka Faker Zed

Or, even better, you could just blink pick the latest released champ without even practicing them because you've heard they are OP.

SKT T1 K vs CJ Frost, what a hype :D
S were just outclassed, they're so lost without comfort picks.

He didn't, it was kind of rushed because it was the end of the show and Monte went "I want to go over this weeks predictions for Champions." Thorin told him they did and the predictions they gave, Monte stared at the ceiling for half a second and then switched.

you mean that same CJ vs KT Masters game where Arrows came super close to losing to Frost, and only won thanks to HACHANI THE LEGEND? Lomo.

i think the better argument for the arrows is KT B's historical strategic dominance of blaze combined with A likely being the stronger KT squad now.

I dunno, I think it's really hard to tell the current relative strength of teams in Korea right now...seems to me like the most accurate thing to say is that all of the top 9 teams are great and any of them could be the best on any given day--just look at how quickly Frost went from being shit to great, and SKTK from perfect to average.

That said, I'd also give the edge to Arrows.

How is Frost great? Their mid and jungle still suck, they just haven't played against a team that was well equipped to exploit that, and when they finally did, they win one series and then get destroyed pretty convincingly in the next 3 games...

blaze are still the betting favorites but the line movement definitely indicates that more money has been coming in on arrows. there's a good chance that their popularity is the only reason blaze isn't an underdog.

i don't know if coco sucks, but i think frost was doomed when they picked up swift, he was one of the weaker links on a mediocre xenics storm team and i'm not sure why they thought he would be able to return frost to the top tier of competition.

Perhaps "great" was a bit of an overstatement looking back at their results, but I don't think they were really outclassed by Ozone or Blue, and they did beat NWS in Masters, and have been used over Blaze in the past two Master's matches against KT and Najin.
