Seriously though, I still don't know why nobody can exploit TSM's strategy. Every game it's like this: santorin/lustboy go mid to help bjergsen, getting him ahead. Then since bjerg's ahead they control vision and get picks. every single game, with little deviation.
Probably because knowing that a strategy is going to happen doesn't guarantee that you know what to do to shut it down.
Day9 mentioned something in an SC2 daily that stuck with me since I heard him say it, and it was something to the effect of: It's ok if your opponent can see what you're doing, if what you're doing is the right (or is a good) thing to be doing.
TSM plays very well to their strengths. And that last word there is key, "Strengths." It's often the case that when a team is really, REALLY good at something, the only way to shut it down is to do the same thing better than them.
I woud also argue that not only is Bjerg the strongest mid in NA, but Santorin and Lustboy are arguably the best players in their respective positions as well. It's really tough to shut down the 3 best players in their position, executing a strategy that amplifies their already natural advantages.

Same reason why China is such a strong region even with their incredibly questionable tactical/strategic play: mechanics.
Starhorn Royal Club last year made it all the way on finals on largely mechanics.
Don't get me wrong, Lustboy and Santorin have very good roam and rotational play, but it's easy to use the same strategy over and over again when your mid laner is currently in contention for one of the best mid laners int he world.

was it about momentum Are you following Thooorin's twitter too ? :D Tell me, why people care about opinions of this idiot who tries to be edgy? From what I know, he is just talking head, trying to climb up over the head of e-sports. I don't remember him being skilled player, e-sports promotor or anything. It's hit and miss, but sometimes he actually offers up truly insightful thoughts and ideas. He's not just some edgy retard trying to bait clicks and incite anger with offensive slurs. He puts a lot of thought into SOME the things he says and is skilled with getting his ideas across eloquently. fixed Thorin makes some very insightful observations. He also says some inane, truly retarded things that he doesn't even think twice before saying
Sure, but I figured that was covered when I qualified my entire statement with "It's hit and miss."
But thanks anyway.

Yeah TIP with the fucked up juggermaw, but TSM picked a low dps comp also. Looking at the teams though, urgot is going to be a terror. Looks like TSM should take this 3-1 unless they mess something serious up.

How can TSM ever get thru Shyvana/Nunu/Alistar? Urgot/Corki no damages. Should be a pick ban win for TiP if they dont feed

Seeing Nautilas chasing two people is so funny

Naut solo invades are amazing..

Incoming interview of C9 Lemonation: "TSM Stole our Strategy"

Nautilius lev. 1 powerspike is real

This Nautilus level one is such a joke.

TiP is boned. Game might be over

Juggermaw vs tanks would have been a good match
RIP TIP
