Dunno about outplayed, Coast still threw 2 games from 4.
All series had to go like Game 3 with Coast just rolling, but somehow they choked even against team who they chose.
It wasn't as pathetic as NiP-KMT but still.

Zion surrounded with better players wont allow him to be focused. except the top tier top laners, even in NA, are always able to make an impact even if they get focused. Look at Balls or Dyrus. Yeah, look at Dyrus, he feeds 10 kills every game against Balls.
Fine, look at Balls or the Korean top laners. No point in being pedantic. Heck, even HSGG in his prime is a pretty good example.
Zionspartan is way overestimated. If you put him on Jax he really shines, but ban that out and he just seems mediocre against teams that focus him. This series I think wasn't a good indicator since Westrice, as much as I love the guy, is honestly not a very good laner and I expect to see him get crushed in LCS.

I think we're missing the real most important thing, we will bask in the glory bubadubb's stache for at least a solid 10 weeks. Truly this was gift.

Honestly as much as I like Zion I'd be surprised to see him in the pcs ever again

Agreed, CLB didn't impress me at all. Most of the teams they play against in the LCS will have a competent jungler/botlane, and CLB has fucking Westrice playing toplane for them.

C9T > CLB. EG just didn't choke like Coast.

I think robertabub can stand up to the LCS bot lanes, borkborkshard I'm not convinced on if he isn't harvesting nintendude.

dig Shiphtur makes a lot of sense if they really just weren't impressed with Goldenglue's performance. Scarra LOVES Shiphtur, so I can definitely see it happening. And if I were CLG I'd be a lot less enthused with the idea of taking Link out of mid after seeing Shiphtur's performance that series.
I would have guessed it would be obvious by now that it doesnt matter what Scarra wants.
He got removed from the team with no warning, and then he got put back on without warning. He has 0 say in anything.

Why the hell would CLG pick Zion over Zoro? Only if Zoro refuses to come to US and then you have still KR. CLG's new top laner from NA chances are incredibly now (and not surprising given the ability)

I can't WAIT for when Westrice goes against Balls.
Gonna get destroyed

What are you even talking about? this entire series Zion was the rock for his team. He was constantly doing what he needed to do. If there's a case to be made for zion, it's that he has a shit botlane, and jungler. Just look at s3 DL. He looked like shit, cuz he didn't have a fucking jungler, or toplaner. So guess what the fuck happens? mid and jungler from enemy team just fucking focuses botlane all fucking game. Only shortsighted fools looked at s3 and say "DL fucking sucks", or "DL is mediocre", when in reality there's no pressure being taken off him

that's probably the last time we've seen wiz and nintendude
|
Brokenshard seems like a really nice guy, but I think he'll get destroyed by competent junglers like Meteos. Then again, it's not like there are many competent junglers in NA LCS. Going by Cheep's measure of how he does when he's behind, I think Brokenshard played pretty poorly when he's behind. And, of course, he was going up against Nintendude.
CLB bot and mid lane seem stable, but their top is going to be a pretty big liability against TSM/C9/LomoQ, and maybe CLG if CLG gets a good toplaner.

only team that can lift this upcoming split is LMQ, which will make things a little more interesting. The roster changes are going to be a real crap shoot though.

Monte has flat out said CLG is not getting a Korean top laner, I'm inclined to believe him.

this is coming from the guy who put zuna in jungle.

Agreed here. Coast almost choked last time, this time it had to happen tbh. Shiphtur just crumbles under pressure it seems, no more than a shadow of casual Shiphtur.
And only this is already red flag for CLG, they can't choke more if they want to perform in Summer and on Worlds.

I still don't think they will be on Velocity level, especially considering NA LCS which is currently without all shuffles is top-3 + LMQ + other 4. 7-8 wins at least are possible, but they're going to relegations for sure if Westrice continues do this shit.
