Can't let Rakan/Xayah through again for that very reason, too much playmaking potential.


At least not the Rakan. Placing a ban on an adc would seem bad here correct?


Honestly I wouldn't ban any adc against Perkz outside of specific circumstances, dude has an infinite champion pool comparatively

Varus is a significantly better laner than kaisa losing a game this quickly wouldn’t be solved by swapping in kaisa

My guess is that TL will probably aim to first pick the J4 as they're on blue side now and force G2 to ban Rakan themselves.

I think this draft is going to be so focused on first pick and getting the early game champs that unless a major outdraft or outplay happens, the last pick counterpick option for Red side isn't going to be enough.

The point I was trying to make is I want to see TL's bot lane be on more aggressive, active champs and we know TL has had success with Kai'sa + Braum before.

I don’t think this game was an out draft TL just played poorly

My personal opinion is that TL wanted to see if G2 would let them pick a pre-MSI type of composition and let them get away with it.

Spoilers, G2 won't.

Yes, meant the combo, not the individual champs. Xayah/Rakan themselves are fairly balanced right now, but combined they offer huge pressure at the pro level.

I mean there’s too much wrong about that game to cover it all but I’ll just say the play where it looked like Doublelift didn’t even notice caps walk behind him to bind him tilted me

Yeah, DL really underestimated how much his Q charge slows him, Caps had ample time to walk up to him and Xmithie. If not for the burned flash, I'd have said Caps TP was a huge waste, instead it turned out super good because it snowballed the lane harder.
Fixed a bug where LeBlanc could lose

It’s not a draft problem bot lane, Varus isn’t a stall till late adc, Darkcore was correct CoreJJ flashing level 1 actually removed all lane pressure Doublelift should have in that match up

If corejj has flash he can just pin Xayah under tower for 5 levels

I'm not 100% sure I agree with first-picking Akali, but I think I'm ok with Braum + Ashe for TL. However, G2's draft is scary and I'm certain they read TL's pick of Kennen. Impact's going to have to be so careful top and probably have Xmithie hang around to stop the Pyke from scaling out of control.

Either way it's Caps on it so it's going to be devastating if it gets going.

TL should have just knocked down the mid turret and not chased for kills.

That felt a bit greedy from TL after that first part of the fight.
