I'm not sure if it's changed by when I spoke to Neo yesterday he said the place was pretty empty and sent me some pics. The stream numbers for league have been pretty good at least. SC2 is still barely scrapping more than solo streamers at this point though.

Zed and talon is reasonable waveclear. He also played a decent amount of syndra but syndra's about as much utility as hai gets since lulu mid got the axe from riot disapproval.
He was also a jayce player but hasn't played jayce in a while. He does play orianna when the team wants him to but it's basically dade levels of at the bottom of the pool

Question for game 3: Did team realise that Jayce was open whole time?

I forgot who's tweet i read, I think it was carmac or one of the higher ups pretty much saying they were banking a lot on this IEM to be a success.
Sort of makes you wonder if thorin's comment about hosting IEM in poland was right.

Talon's wave clear is not safe, very short ranged, cant do anything vs a 5v5 siege. Zed can't fight if he's constantly wave clearing due to energy management.

Yeah, Zed actually has really good wave clear for an energy champ+assassin. Talon's decent damage-wise (not sure how he holds with the changes to increase minions' HP though, it actually hurts physical waveclear more than magical), and Rake only has 600 range so it's nowhere near enough when getting sieged (he has no escape too, E on a minion doesn't work in these situations).

Ye at this point I don't know why they putting money into SC2 instead of Dota 2. I get there's a lot of dota events these days and they may be too late but dam it's better to be late than stuck on a ship that's all but sunk at this point.
