Worried for LMQ. The team doesn't have the infrastructure that CRS has and tilt is a problem as well; it's really disadvantageous for them to be playing so soon after their loss. T_T

Nevertheless, go go LMQ!

Real question, is why the hell do we not have blind pick game 5?


I know it's from a whiel ago, but no one seemed to answer, so...
Because the whole point of the season long competition is to give the top teams an advantage.
LMQ qualified to this stage through their league ranking, so they get to choose sides, and they also get the advantage of the choice for 3 games out of 5.

It's their reward for qualifying directly. The higher seeded team gets to pick the champ selects.
HOLY CHECK!

their reward was having jobsecurity because they can't go to relegations and having 1 less bo5 to play... for some reason riot hates blindpick.

Blind pick is seriously awful anyways. Seeing double shens fight each other and ult on top of each other last year every fucking game was utterly brutal.
Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where, when facing a SlayerS terran, completing a hatchery would cause a medivac and 8 marines to randomly spawn nearby and attack it.

Blind pick is definition of optimal winning conditions, of course, you can't play every game blind pick in teamgame, but it takes those excuses like "they banned our blue-side strat" out and give a show.

Double Shen was fun, way better than double Gragas/Zac.

I care way more about 3rd place match than 1st place match, are you kidding? Way more on the line.

Did I see that correctly? Was Vasili crying when he was interviewed or something?

Looked like he was fighting the urge to cry in that small clip.

It feels so twisted that the third place match is more important then the finals tomorrow.
Hope Curse wins.

Considering how hard did they choke yesterday, i'm not going to bet on 3-0 at all.
Ofc, if Curse are going to play like yesterday, then it's going to be 3-0 even with tilting Vasilii though.
