This time it came from old man Sven. I think Sneaky has been super impressive on the Lucian too. That’s a signature Sneaky pick, and Afreeca just can’t handle the bottom lane once Sneaky starts snowballing. I thought the 5/1 Ryze would control it, but nope. | ||

I mean, props to the analyst desk for pointing out that once Sven got some gold, he basically grabbed Zayzel and Jensen and they almost immediately started diving the Ryze and forcing the baron play. That lead to Jensen getting a stupid good slow AoE hit with his active items and basically froze Afreeca in their tracks after C9 got the baron. | ||

That 2v3 under tower to feed Sven shouldn’t have happened in the first place. They should’ve focused vision and support top side. Instead they focused bot side after taking inner turret, basically greeding for an inhibitor | ||

Infernal with 5 people piling on. Taken by Sven. 5v3 for baron. 2 people go in and taken. Beautiful play by Jensen and Licorice.

Sneaky isn't feeding despite one of the hardest pro camps you'll ever see, although Kramer is pretty far ahead. I also like liss as a pick when trying to do an engage comp. Just sets up everything so well from midlane. Moderately high damage, but excellent control and good survivability. | ||

I just need 2 more points for the 34 points mission in the LoL client and I thought I'd get it, now I'm worried I won't. | ||

Yep the liss engage onto 5 just ruined Afreeca. You can argue about how you don't like the pick, but the amount of damage and control it provides at the very start of fights is undeniable. | ||

It wasn't just the Lissandra engage, it was also the continuation of the engage and the chase after the fights occur. Zeyzal kept ulting onto Sven or Licorice on the engages, then Lissandra follows up, slows and snares the enemy and ults herself and Zhonyas and for 5s basically lets Sneaky and Sven just smash Afreeca. | ||

Similar teamfight impact and CC but worse roaming which basically makes her game impact lower. At least she has a better engage than flash taunt. Just generally Lissandra with Lucian ADC makes me uncomfortable since Lissandra is relatively low damage in exchange for her CC. If you fall behind it's an autoloss since you have no damage in AD or mid. C9 made it work so good for them, but even RNG won a couple games with Lucian comps. | ||

With how Korea was playing the Galio it was reactive, where-as basically every other region is trying to be pro-active and choosing to fight on their terms vs. reacting to a play the enemy team makes. | ||
