Holy shit Zion uninstall the game.

Both teams looked thoroughly mediocre. They were just playing passively, waiting for the other team to throw, and Darshan took the initiative because that's how good teams play right? Except his play was bad, and his team wasn't on the same page. What a depressing end to the series, with the team that plays passively for longer being rewarded with the win.

It will probably be a 3-0 beat down, just like this series was supposed to be.

Watching Post League Time after the fact is hilarious. "Darshan is the most improved, he's so much better than earlier in the season when he was inting." Scarra cursed him! And all of CLG.

Well, with how awful Flyquest's 2nd half of the split was, I find it eminently reasonable to have predicted a CLG win over them.

honestly the meme just keeps giving

pretty sure the amount of times CLG has disappointed as the favorites and surprised as underdogs is far more than any other team in NALCS

Does it feel like CLG is always aiming for mediocrity? There's no risk taking to find a star or anything like that. Just that team that will always be sorta good but not great.

Like I dont' think xmithie, darshan, or huhi (except for when he's on asol) can take over a game. They get recognition for being solid and playing solid, but you'd never image them 1v5 outplaying the enemy team. And that's really worrying that you can't play around your sololaner or get a game where your jungle just gives you a huge earlygame lead.

And its compounded by the fact that adc and support are the worst roles to try and carry a game from. The dual lane just doesn't have the freedom to affect the map.

Honestly, I feel like they gave up after Doublelift left. Stixxay and Huhi were moved from a sub to the main roster and they were able to get by with success in the spring/MSI due to Yellowstar being washed up. Their results have slowly decayed and the only reason they made it to Worlds was because of the massive point load up they got from winning Spring was aided by TSM winning Summer.

If they made it to Semi's and had a shot for 3rd in playoffs I'd say that maybe the org is trying to keep the band together to hit Worlds one last time before calling it quits, but after what happened against Flyquest... that team's in need of a tear down. It needs sololaners bad.

I don't think Stixxay is that bad, and Huhi played better in the series than I'm used to seeing. But Darshan made some pretty bad plays, I didn't like his Fizz in the third game, it's a pick that requires good decision making because it's risky playing without Flash and Fizz can be pretty useless when behind (he killed Balls solo but Rumble will still be useful in team fights).

that team's in need of a tear down. It needs sololaners bad.


Agreed, Darshan needs to go, and if they find a suitable replacement for Huhi, then do it. Only problem I see is that picking up rookies means CLG will be even more passive than before, who shotcalls for them anyway?

Pretty sure CLG's shotcaller is Aphro.

As for CLG aiming for mediocrity... they have their ups and downs. They've had to fight for their lives twice in the promotion tournament- but they've also been NA champions twice, one of only three teams to ever achieve that.

I feel CLG has improved dramatically from where they were back in seasons 3 & 4, the team feels cohesive nowadays instead of being in a state of perpetually breaking down in the middle of the split. Sure, they look underwhelming now because they're in a downswing from the lofty heights of their back-to-back championships in S5 Summer and S6 Spring, but NA has also gotten a lot more competitive with time.

Their loss to Flyquest is kind of pathetic, I won't argue that. But CLG isn't a team aiming to win international competitions. TSM aims to win Worlds- sure, they inevitably get completely run over at Worlds when they get there, but at least they're reaching for the sky, and are not content just to do well in NA. CLG, on the other hand, seems perfectly content with making playoffs in NA. I wouldn't expect more from them, because they aren't looking to be more than that.

That was such a weird game. Nothing happens for 25 minutes then C9 gets a small advantage and game is over 5 minutes later. Contractz is playing like a beast so far.

I'd be very surprised if P1 ends up winning this series, after going 0-2 vs. TSM & C9 in week 9.

Off-topic: Is it just me who finds Arrow to be kind of overrated? He's a good ADC to be sure, one of the best in the NA LCS, but all the credit he gets as far and away the best ADC in the region and one of the foremost candidates for Spring Split MVP seems completely unwarranted to me.

P1 is so weird. Stunt plays a bunch and in series before this. Now he's not playing. Meteos comes in does a great job, now it's just Inori every game. What the hell is going on.
