iG is just starving out G2.

They're doing a great job of disengaging as well, and just not letting G2 get a chance to come back into the game.

iG is playing like they're bluffing: take all the towers and bully G2, then when they get engaged on they run away as fast as possible. It's really interesting to watch. Some of those fights could've easily ended in a blood bath, instead we're at a 3-1 at 24 minutes.

And I end up eating my words, inhib dives at 24:30 :/

24 minute diving inhib turrets with an inner still up.

This game is donezo.

Can't play for mid game when the early game goes that poorly.

Well, game 1 was kind of a stomp.

G2 needs to pull themselves together and not draft 3 losing lanes.

I know this might not make entirely sense, but imo the game was won by that Akali pick. It was winning top lane drawing attention from Jankos, and caused the other lanes to lose even harder. Also that shroud diving forces really defensive play from G2 when behind, because Akali will just blow up any low health champ. It's also a ticking time bomb because eventually Akali one shots everyone, and took a possible Perkz pick away.

J4 was also a good counter to Sivir, the whole G2 comp really.

Which is bizzare because they had last pick. They intentionally drafted at least 1 losing lane that game.

Jankos' early jungling looked like he practiced it in scrims with chinese teams /s IG's deep ward showed him trying to gank Akali when she was lvl 2 and from that point it looked like Ning was always at least one step ahead of him.

I did not think Akali vs Swain would be a winning lane at all. G2 probably did not either.

I think it is more accurate to say G2 lost the top lane, not drafted a losing lane.

Man, your analysis is so one dimensional, idk wtf you're on about.

S1 doesn't count, LoL was a tiny game and it was Western teams with some random SEA teams.
S2 I'll give to you, although keep in mind the game had just been introduced to CN, the scene wasn't developed at all.
S3 OMG did very well only to get smoked by Royal. Royal still demolished FNC handily
S4 SHRC again took out the other CN teams
S5 iG and LGD played atrocious, absolutely their worst year.
S6 is you looking at the pure rankings, what a load of bs. CN was taken out by KR, SKT and ROX were arguably the strongest teams in the tournament. H2K got ANX who hilariously made it out of a group with CLG and G2
S7 was without a doubt a CN

S6 is when people starting considering CN a juggernaut region, that is when their scene fully developed and the money started flowing (technically S5, but that is why we meme'd them for the past two years). Before that they were the same as any other region, except KR with its infrastructure and hence domination of the scene.

For S6 that's pure logic actually. Yes H2K had an opponent that CN teams would have probably dominated. Then they lost to KR. CN lost to KR. That doesn't mean that CN teams would have been able to beat H2K, so we judge based on placement and H2K went further.

So yes EU had more good showings than CN

G2 just with too many mistakes on the solo lanes. They play it super risky, could have worked out but oh well.

He does. But the 1v1 kill was straight up suicide. And I think Wunder misplaces the W when jayce goes all in.

Then you have Perkz dying on the allin because there is a jungler he did not expect and Jankos missing an easy bot gank by screwing up flash body slam and you should lose the game vs a good opponent.

Rookie and TheShy are also arguably the best Jayce players in competitive play, having a double pocket pick is a nightmare.

G2 first tower only fell at the 13 min mark, they're are doing better than last game, but not by much. Lets see if scaling kicks in before they crumple. Also Hjarn is winning bot lane, that's hilarious, Wadid is solo carrying two lanes.

Every time Wunder places the W too far forward. It does nothing.

Damn, Jackey played poorly but who cares when Rookie and TheShy dumpster the whole game by themselves.

Frosk and Deficio predicted 3:2 G2 win. Jatt confirmed the best analyst - he said its gonna be 3:0 for IG.

So just to check your logic on this: If G2 and Fnatic both lose their semis then NA > EU this Worlds because C9 would make finals?
