Maybe this is a 4.20 thing, but I feel like C9 should be ahead by more gold.

It's not even C9 playing especially well. UoL are playing significantly worse than in the semis, especially wrt their map movements.

Y'know, they could also really use a fucking Locket. Or even two.

Braum just got hooked, so... does that mean PoE just pulled off a Zuna with fucking Lux?

What a joke of a game. PoE made it a 4v5, couldn't even waveclear properly, and then the rest of the team decided that they loved to ignore the map and either stay too long or 2v2 people then end up in a 2v4. Meh, guess I was too happy to see a decent team yesterday, but it looks like the exception more than the norm now. ><

I actually disagree. Their warding is worse, but that's because it was easy to ward against a TSM team that never really shoved and more or less rolled over and died in the laning phase. With C9 pressuring lanes, Meteos is able to control vision better than Kikis. I don't think UoL is playing worse at all. TSM just played like shit.

Yeah that's why I asked what their plan was, guess it really was "Kikis will farm and carry us".

And I agree with Ghandi, I think UoL are playing the same (they are still trading and stuff), it's just that C9 had a more clear plan.
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

How does one waveclear properly against a Syndra as Lux?

Meteos played like a beast, essentially allowed Hai to keep pushing over and over again without being scared of Kikis at all.

Meteos didn't snowball much, botlane got ahead when there was that retarded "gank" while Lucian was still at the t2, with their t1 down, and Balls' TP got both of them killed, while Lucian burnt his dash to try and finish Lemonation, meaning he was a free kill for Corki+Lee without tower nor escapes.

Maokai was actually ahead in farm despite the first blood, and beating Lissandra in trades, the first blood didn't snowball her or anything.
UoL would have needed to actually group, and be content with towers. When they could get a tower they'd just take ages to act upon it and then Braum/Lux autos the tower twice before C9 arrives and they have to leave, or when they take the tower they stay for an additional creep wave then try to fight, and get 3v5'd.

No reads on the map, bad rotations, and getting caught in bad fights because they lack vision/don't pay attention to the one they have.

More in the sense that they lost their t2s way too easily, especially when they sent Lux back to protect it while 3 were taking C9's top t2. She didn't do anything, and C9 had all the time in the world to kill the tower, then move to flank the 3.
PoE was generally too late in the right lane, if he was there at all. Awkward when he's their waveclear.

For all the talk about Jayce earlier this event, why is he not getting picked Oo
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death
