Really, TSM should have disengaged, they were too low, and with Nami's and Lulu's ults down, it was obvious they weren't as strong as C9. :/

I think bjerg was just too impatient. TSM could have played around that base as long as they dodged shots. No way c9 would run into a orianna ult, and the danger was there. That inhib / push down middle was very well done , but they just got poked too much/ took free poke.

I'm not good at assessing, but who has the better ultra-late game? Is TSM's best play to just stall out? Or do they have to press a risk?

Late game is for sure for TSM with hypercarry buffed by Nami/Lulu/Orianna, but it's still manageable by C9 with heavy frontline, they have ultimate comp for Yasuo if Hai doesn't mess up.

C9 has better late game considering how most of the advantage hinges on Tristana while WT's been playing badly this game.
TSM has no frontline while Braum and Maokai are pretty much the best combo you can hope for in the game in terms of raw tankiness. Add in Yasuo's Wind Wall for the absurd ability to negate almost all of TSM's abilities (both damage and utility), on top of Braum, and for the damage.

Once he gets farmed, Yasuo's skill floor is low enough that even Hai shouldn't be able to choke (contrary to WT).

Yeah, just what I said. WT really, wtf was that trash positioning. >_<

"Hey Maokai's teleporting, I'll stay in range, I can jump away anyway."
He can miss it too.
And if he jumps away then C9 gets to shoot the inhib for free. >_>

I really don't understand why tsm pick a comp that relies on your ad to play well and carry and you don't even leave him farm.....

Damn just realized how poor balls is. He's gonna need a couple more items before he can actually tank well.

He had enough up till recently because Tristana didn't have items either. Once he finishes FH he'll be fine, Yasuo can block a fuckton of projectiles aimed at him too anyway.
