A high elo soloq player. His appearance was a surprise for the Chinese fans as well, since San was praticing with Bigpomelo for the last few days. He was (is?) #1 on the Chinese soloq by playing support, so definitely a good player with the skills. But he don't have much tournament experience. Nobody knows if he has secured the starting spot in OMG or not.

Ugh. Cool is playing awful in these games. Just a shadow of his former self =(.

He played fine given how bad everyone else on OMG was playing. I don't think he played outside of my expectations.

He also hasn't played mid competitively in a long ass time.

I mean even so, he was still playing as well as I'd expect from him.
Honestly, if anyone really looked out of sorts that EDG series, it's Lovelin, not Cool.
|
In case people were wondering why Lovelin changed his id to "drug", it comes from his Chinese id 灵药. This is closest to the word "elixir" (as the medicine that cures all ills). However, English is certainly not the strong points of Chinese progamers, so it becomes "drug". By the way, "clearlove" is most likely a not so successful attempt at "purelove".
|
Haha I was wondering why he had the name "drug".

The teams with Koreans predictably have poor communication come teamfights and WE is no longer the glorious WE that actually peels for weixiao and has amazing teamfight initiations from their midlaner (and later jungle and support at times too when clearlove and fzzf first joined).
WE makes me sad. Even if they're doing well in LPL and just won IEM, they used to win or lose gloriously based on their laning and teamfights (vs poor map control). Now they're just another somewhat Korean-looking LPL team that has little consistency because they don't actually have a playing identity (or communication either lol).
|
United Kingdom50293 Posts
2-0 WE, 2-0 EDG, 1-1 OMG.
Young Glory are the real deal. Real shame that they're blooming way too late, they have pretty much no shot at playoffs and are unlikely to overtake LGD.
|
With a disasters throw in their last game, Team WE lost their chance for the playoff and S4 qualifying matches.
They have the same point as LGD, and went evenly head to head with LGD, but LGD was able to win their games faster against WE, so WE is eliminated by head-to-head game time comparison.

Chinese Orianna remains creepy as all fuck.

Chinese tournament names always look so sloppy when they get cluttered with sponsors. LGD1006TVXQ I mean, really? Only the bold part is needed.

Dat shockwave tibbers combo.

wombo combo.
Graves doesn't fit with LGD's comp, IMO. =/ no way of safely attacking the tower without being in constant danger of being ori-ulted.

It's interesting seeing Jax and Kayle on this patch.

Won't be surprsied by double Jax either l0l.
Ah, it's not blind pick D:
Dammit.
Ye, i like OMG's comp way more.
Cola's Jax blows and San has safe trinity force adc.

Cool, why are you so cool.
What a legend, Uzi will rage hard soon.
Teamfighting by OMG after first two games is hilariously good though.
Props.
Safe to say though, that SHRC should be favourites against LGD and EDG should win against OMG in bo5 if Clearlove appears.
Still, EDG, OMG and Starhorn Royal Club are my picks for Worlds.
On the other hand, you never know what will iG do.

So I return to see a reverse sweep from OMG and cool going a 20/1/8 on yasuo.
Goddamnit starhorn, now OMG will think that they should keep dada for regionals. At least cool is a god, now if OMG can get San a support who doesn't suck or insults him all the time then OMG for best non-Korean team dream is alive.

Honestly, watching Dada and even Cloud make me feel that pomelo was better.
Still, i just hope that Starhorn qualify, Uzi tries to carry 2v8 with Zero and after Worlds, corn and Cola are going to land in land of apple pie.

I won't say that San is upgrade from Space, so no.
Anyway, China can collapse hard those Worlds or can go hard and reach semifinals.

Ahrl and sicca would be good choices but idk what ahrl's been up to since he left WE.A (I know how WE.A went without him though hehe) and I don't know if sicca has any will to live without his waifu namei.
Anyways my expectations for China are pretty low tbh, while EDG look like a team on a rebound (or more likely, a team actually taking matches seriously to get that free seed to worlds) OMG has dada which leads me to a new theory, that San can only play well with a good support. I know that sounds odd but I mean that with a bad support (dada, pomelo) san looks like crap because of tilt or whatever but since he improved he suddenly looked like a god with cloud or allen. He'll like completely reflect the quality of his support now unlike say wexaio who has a worthless support in conan but still performed before his team went on full tilt. I still think that EDG or OMG with a good support can win the non-korean in the top 4 and maybe not look like crap but it's not the most confident prediction, I don't think either of them are much better than alliance. That all being said I'm waiting until regionals to make a proper assesment on China rather than this playoffs since all the teams here already got their regionals spot so I wonder if any sands are being bagged here.
LGD are gonna win worlds tho #LGDHYPE :>
When I think about it what I just mused on China sounds borderline Asian parent "YOU ONLY TOP 4 EDG/OMG? YOU BRING SHAME TO FAMILY"
|
The land of freedom23126 Posts
What do you think about real chances though?
We're ofc not as hyped about LPL as Froskurrin or Kelsey Moser but still, we have eyes and brains, not worse than their.
If there will be two groups with Chinese/Korean team, i don't see Chinese team advancing from the group.
SHRC have dead meat on toplane, Corn is passive as fuck like it's Season 2 again, Koreans are hit or miss and their vision control sucks.
OMG will probably forced to laneswap, so they lose their second biggest weapon from Gogoing 1v1 on toplane, which isn't bad and Cool's back was already broken last Worlds when they hit RYL.
And EDG have what, better Corn, absolute hit-or-miss jungler who doesn't gank lanes early anyway, godlike bottom lane which will be forced to play 2v0 and random decisions who're making people facepalming in coaltier?
I'm really worried for them, i don't want them to get crashed but if suddenly Uzi/Cool/NaMei don't enter God modes at Worlds, i don't see them succeeding at all with bad luck in draws.
|
United Kingdom50293 Posts
Koro1 and U will be fine, they won't be bodying the lanes or anything but EDG were never really the team to crush the lanes anyway. I do concur however that clearlove has been amazingly hit or miss recently which may tip the lanes heavily away from koro and U. EDG have a very narrow set of win conditions (Teamfight well or "namei senpai pls", they aren't going to be the kind of team to win lane and steamroll game or ognTSM gyrate their way to wins) which concerns me against the samsungs but gives them a reasonable match up to the 3rd seed whoever it is from Korea. As long as clearlove doesn't have a heart attack I think they can beat up western teams and our future garena overlords but actually beating Korean teams is idk. The only way I see them beating Koreans will be "namei pls" because relying on going even and straight up 5v5ing would be a terrible idea against the samsungs.
I've stood by forever that starhorn aren't that good and are carried by zero, I still stand by it. I'll give corn a few props for some improvement throughout the season but he's still middling, cola is terrible and will get his face smashed in if he goes to worlds. Insec had a good run today and outjungled drug but meh, even if his game was stepped up for worlds his solos are too weak and insec is not going to be the able to put in work when cola/corn are shitting the bed. Real shame as well because uzi/zero are a damn good 2v2 lane and have been excellent especially with zero's engages/disengages but likely the solos will have a heart attack at worlds and uzi can't carry.
OMG, idk about allen/drug jungle anymore. I mean he's still better than pomelo but that's not a good base, he hasn't played well in a while and while I honestly think that cool/gogoing can dance with the ssumdays/dades/froggens of the world the jungle difference may tip these lanes away from them. Besides dada7 will probably feed them anyway which causes sad san to appear so they can't fall back on san. If they had a good support like ahrl/sicca and drug gets it together for worlds then I think OMG can go deep at worlds.
My musings overall is that EDG might be able to take a snatch a few wins off the 3rd place Korean team and maybe even one off the samsungs because of their playstyle matching up decently to either SKT K/NJWS/KTA and will do fine against the west. So I think any draw short of getting a samsung in the RO8 will be fine for them if they play like they did vs LGD and clearlove shows up (Clearlove is a player who does perform in the clutch so I'm relatively confident that he will).
For OMG drug needs to refind his groove and they need a support who will get rid of sad san, they have the only two solos (and froggen) who I believe if anyone could match up to their Korean counterparts it'd be them but sad san + dada7 and drug being bad makes me think that up against the biggest of boys cool/gogoing will keel over, especially because sad san requires laneswaps which removes gogoing's chance to 1v1 their way to an upset.
SHRC/LGD I have literally zero expectations for, they're probably worse than alliance and won't stand a chance against Korea. A sufficiently bad draw like Korea 2nd/3rd seed + alliance and I can see either of them out the group stages.
Finally for iG, don't have expectations for iG. Expecting anything from iG either way is asking for trouble.
I'm under no illusion that China is going to overthrow our Korean overlords, they may fare better but they'll lose like the rest nor do I believe that China is that much better than the west, Alliance beating EDG/OMG is a result that wouldn't surprise me too much and I don't think fnatic beating them is outside the realm of possibility. I'll reserve my judgement on NA teams relative to other regions when their regionals finishes.
|
I wonder how will it change during rest of playoffs and regionals, but for now I'm sold on Cool/Gogoing/Drug doing the best of the three teams, and I don't think San/whatever will do badly against other regions where the botlanes are supposedly not as good as in China. And I'm really unconvinced that ALL and FNC would take games of any of these.

You really underwhelm Europe so hard :D I can understand it, but it's too pessimistic.
San/Dada botlane is just atrocious, San/pomelo lane pre-S3 Worlds wasn't that bad, and it seems that Cloud got dumped.
EU midlaners are totally capable of not feeding Cool in Ryze-Yasuo matchup though, so i'm not that worried, only problem is Gogoing but it's fixable by laneswaps, if you're that scared.
I'm pretty sure that EDG are going to beat OMG and win LPL Summer aka clinching #1 seed.
OMG should really be ok in Regionals though if suddenly they don't get wild iG in first round and iG don't enter another berzerk mode by slaughtering OMG.
LGD really looked lost last time against EDG, We1less and XQ are good but toplane is worst lane in every region it seems l0l.
And Starhorn just need to stop derping hard and pick legit carries for Uzi/stop throwing in teamfights near Baron Nashor, that's it. Fixing vision ain't easy but they can deliver, i believe.
In general, i guess, EDG/OMG will advance from groups just to be slaughtered by Koreans who will abuse Clearlove or poor San but third team is just doomed unless it's iG and you never even think about trying to predict what will iG do.

Im sorry, but can someone convince me to watch past G1? This was literally an atrocity. Several thousand fans cast themselves into ravines seeing that game. It was worse than EG vs. complexity strategically and inSec (in-fing-Sec!) was the best player at all times in that game by a huge margin.
The English cast was atrocious (even if the bad Baron call can be excused via the montecristo corollary, P.S. I saw orianna got it immediately), but that is fine, I can listen to an E-book (but I shouldn't have to considering the hype they just got on SummoningInsight!). But the play. Its like the mechanics of a good NA team with the plans of a bad NA team. Plus, as a viewer, mechanics get lost half the time outside of your rare inSec plays.

Lol. I love that teams still think that Yasuo has lane counters. The only counters to Yasuo are being a significantly better player, and your entire team playing with more exhausts than is optimal.

The true yasuo counter is just to have a lineup that is skill-shot-less

No idea what SH were expecting in that game 4 with Fizz/Vayne/Jax once they gave up baron; their largest source of waveclear was, uh, Duskbringer.

Not sure how it was in earlier LPL seasons but seeing this halfassed postgame handshaking (which I assume they adapted after all the events involving riot and the western teams) is super funny because the winning team kinda makes an effort about it but there's still this chinese bm and the losing team sits there reluctantly shaking hands while looking at their screens.

Can't wait until those comments are going to be mainstream at Worlds, even when SHRC will beat anyone l0l.
Don't forget, tonight.

Forskurinn is pretty much a chinese fangirl and the dude just isn't very good and says lots of nonsense 
|
Haven't seen a Cait in forever.
|
Facking OMG =\ =( =( =( =(

I've learnt a lot about the Chinese scene in general from people like Froskurinn, all you have to do is just ignore her once she tries to get her agenda across and start making comparisons to hype the Chinese region. It's quite obvious she knows less than even a casual viewer when it comes to the other major scenes. Kelsey Moser is much more succint and objective in her views, in my opinion, but Frostkurinn seems to be more of a "face" of the Chinese scene for English viewers.
InSec, Lustboy going to the World Championship after displaying really lackluster performances in thier previous teams makes me feel iffy to be honest. I mean even with the restrictions Riot Gaming has placed, it must really mess with the mentality of middle of the pack Korean professionals that these players are qualifying for a competition that even some of the best players Korea ever produced performing at their peaks failed to qualify for.

That Cool death was real terror. Dada double buff thresh is really scary, and San is really underwhelming in this first game against LGD.
Also spectator lag lol
25 min in, 5k ahead, LGD just pulled an iG with that baron misplay
|
ROFL WEILESS. What was that?

So I found out that OMG are now being coached by iG's old coach. It makes way too much sense

OMG putting their cards on sad san scares me for OMG but improves the odds of the LGD worlds dream
Pretty EDGesque comp from OMG
LGD couldn't killien the zilean
|
San doing his job as koggers. wowow
I don't know if it's caster bias or what, but the english casters are trying reallllllly hard to find every single issue with OMG's current situation. OMG is so far ahead, and they are winning every single team fight. There's no way OMG lose this especially with how far ahead Ryze is right now, and how San is 15/0/6.

XQ with one of the dumbest recalls I've ever seen

Well this ended kinda random. Those recalls.

lol #LCS BIG PLAYS. Seriously though that steal was huge even though it was basically luck. If OMG can stall for a bit longer, they might actually be in a good spot.

Cool is putting his carry pants on.

no it wasn´t even luck. It was just Quan being a terrible smiter. I know nerves and shit, but that makes a decent pro player: being able to execute at least the easy tasks, when under pressure.
I don´t think any KOR/EU/NA team has to fear those chinese guys. I´m looking forward to see if EDG can step it up. But SH/OMG/LDG don´t look scary to me at all.
|
This LGD caster bias is real. The longer OMG stalls, the better they are for the whole game. Casters want to ignore this point.
|
Barring a Forellenlord 3k Elo ult, I don't see LGD winning this.

If nothing else cool's ability to consistently solo carry his team is impressive.
As is dada/sad san's ability to get caught
|
The throws are real
China applying their ping-pong prowess to LoL too I see.

Also I see my opnions about Ahri confirmed. Really, really strong.

OMG's botlane is just too terror and Uzi/Zero were best botlane in Regionals, team just blew dicks against EDG, else Royal could be 1st seed second time in a row against all odds.
They're not good at all, that's the thing, only Froskurrin and Kelsey Moser can blindly hype shitters who're getting carried by Zero, so i will still take OMG over SHRC, if Allen, Cool and Gogoing just keep San away from Vayne and everything which is not Kog'Maw/Corki, so he's going to be useful at least and not just sad because his supports blow if they're not called Lovelin.

I'd say that SHRC's picks (as in, the ingame strategy) are pretty terror (as in, scary for the other team). They are the embodiment of "chinese aggression", constantly looking for fights and kills even if they don't necessarily get any objectives of them. I wonder if a western team could out-lol-rotate them, but as of right now, I expect some funny stomps. OMG will probably look against the west just like KTB and T1K looked at IEM/All-Stars.

All SHRC gameplay is like:
- Pick what we're ok with, like corn's Orianna, some legit adc for Uzi, get Cola into 1v1, because we suck with laneswaps.
Then there is a crotch:
- If corn and Cola didn't feed and Uzi/Zero are okay or better - inSec doesn't choke and we can control pace of the game.
- If corn and Cola are in bad spot, inSec chokes and we can't control anything, so let's raise a puppy.
Then there is another crotch.
- If puppy is raised, we can just throw Cola and inSec under the bus, let Zero just peel for YouZeeAy and let puppy bait everything and everyone as much as possible.
- If puppy can't bait anyone because he's dead, well, let's go next.
Actually, i want SHRC with C9 in same group to see, can Hai feed to corn or not.

I dunno I wrote SHRC off but they looked really prepared during the OMG series and the EDG series. I was really impressed on how the Janna/Caitlyn game went.

>> Prepared.
Please, it's China.
SHRC don't have big enough champion pools for their terror sololanes to fight in bo5 on big stage against top Korean teams, EDG and probably even [A], that's the thing. Also they really struggle to close out bo5 series, they have already lost to OMG twice during Summer Playoffs, once being 2-0 up and second time, still going to game 5 and losing there.
I have no idea, why Regionals were bo3, but as Shibedoge says - #justTencentthings

How I would call it is that InSec is good at snowballing leads, but crumbles when even/behind. Sololaners are no stars, but I wouldn't underestimate them, especially against Western/SEA teams. And YOU ZHI AI with a Korean is really scary. I really don't see them losing to ALL.

Hai vs corn with 6 mid bans would be glorious.
Corn isn't awful, but his champion pool is pretty meh even with his improvements. But too many priorities elsewhere to target just corn especially zero's legend fiddle. Just taking out fizz would be good enough for corn though
