Man. This is the piglet we thought we would see day 1. What a solid performance. The rest of the team did well to protect Piglet when he mispositions, though. Still, that's what a team does. I'm really hyped watching this TL play.

Maybe he expects/hopes to get the black shield off so they can push Mikaels back a bit.

Don't really agree with Phreak here, when paired with Draven it's more about the black shield than the binding, not being able to CC draven is the idea here, sure if you bind them it's free damage but that is Morg in general not so much in this match up.

Cop cannot carry that game the same way Piglet did.
"Anybody can get it....the hard part is keeping it MOTHERFUCKER"
Sorry, Dre possessed me for a moment. Seriously though, Piglet has gotten serious and that makes Liquid dangerous
However, I fully expect to see C9 start laneswapping now, and I think they are typically much much better in laneswaps than Liquid. Has that changed at all after Liquids apparent rebirth here?

Sejuani is not only % health damage and Sion does also a deceptive amount of magic damage.

Did Zion just say TL only win if Lucian gets ahead?
Uhh...

Doesn't change Mikael's being the better buy when your only real damage threat is the Draven. You have to keep him autoing as long as possible during a fight. Corki doesn't shred tanks as well and hecarim was diving onto lucian

Well yea that's why I used that example. It could just be a case of a strong jungler being played by people that can't play him so they should stop playing him much the same way as they did with Rango eventually. Need to learn from their mistakes sometimes

Asking a CLG player about communicating better? Lul?

Everything from Zion is "blah blah blah I'm salty I got dumpstered".

None of these teams can play well with Gragas, so why focus on him? The champion might be really good (personally I don't think so, but let's just say that he is), but if you can't play him/with him it's competely useless to focus him.
