And the WE vs YG matchup will reveal the same for CN: if they play just as poorly as FNC they might actually lose and make me look like an idiot for hyping them as possibly the best CN team. | ||

But if your enemy doesn't know where you are, they are shitting themselves while you are farming efficiently. The superleash into full clear is the extreme example of this principle at work. You may laugh, but I got challenger with no pre-6 gank Evelynn a few seasons back xD Isn't there a timing where you can say "ok they are probably farming and have backed by now"? | ||

I'm guessing that fuzziness adds to the pressure of not seeing the jungler. In your head you're saying "he's got to have backed by now", but the discipline you've trained into your subconscious tells you to still play safe. | ||

They see him and think, "what could he have possibly done to take all that damage?" Then have no clue what his path was. | ||

Out of the 2nd-place teams, YG, Lyon and HKA all look moderately threatening. One looks far weaker than the rest, though, so Fenerbahçe got their ticket into the main event on a silver platter. As for the 1st-place teams, C9 and WE definitely look like the teams you'd want to avoid. Lyon couldn't face WE because they were on the same group, but then drew the short stick and got C9. C9 > Lyon and Fenerbahçe > One look pretty one-sided. WE is favored over YG, but I can imagine an upset happening here. HKA vs. Fnatic looks pretty close, but I favor HKA. | ||
