that way they wouldn't have to play an asian team until round 4 of losers bracket (assuming TPA beats fnatic) then again i guess they did lose to curse.eu already l0l | ||

He has a shield, a spamable ability that gives him bonus damage and slows the target and an in principle also heal. There are better duellist, but he is scary as fuck because once you started dueling him, you either finish him or you die. There is no way to run from him unless you can stun him long enough to get out of his q range. On top of that he can ult you and even drag you closer towards potential reinforcements. So yes in theory there are other people that can duel better, but I guarantee you, that in most game you are not likely to really push the issue when facing him. The ult also allows him to defend against split-pushes. Getting ulted under tower, dragged to the base of the tower and then having to run out while being slowed is no fun for the attacker. | ||

OR is this under the same mindset that someone else basically said M5 is overrated and bad now.. Their support left, citing complacency and not enough practice. So they play with a sub (Patoy) this tournament. | ||

I really, really want to strangle this shaco announcer. Well, they are the voice actors for several characters, so at least its legit. Jax is awesome. | ||

I'm not trying to start an argument but from what i understand of curse EU. Their sub "Patoy" is a considered to be a very strong support so while they might not be at 100 percent of what their old lineup was, don't count them out because of that. I did hear about them not practicing and partying too much but to just assume they are garbage tier I think is under cutting them. They still have 4/5 with an extremely good sub, if they did happen to smarten up and focus for this tournament then they are a force to not under estimate. I can easily see them spanking CLG NA. After that they will most likely play TPA (unless Fnatic pulls an upset) and will probably lose to them. Again, I am no expert on League nor the Euro scene so please take my words for what they are, nothing really... lol EDIT: side note. Fuck, I didn't know they were playing the quarters on Day 1. I fucking missed them, were they good? I'm stoked CLG EU won even though M5 is a fave of mine (how can you hate a team that picks Ashe and AP yi). | ||

Misaya lost a TF game in the very same tournament he became famous for it, losing it to Ehome Max's Morgana. But other than that yeah... can't remember him ever losing any other TF games. | ||

I don't think CLG.eu could have had an easier set of games to make round 4. Good for them too getting an extra day to prepare for WE. | ||

Skarner is strong as fk, especially if he has blue buff. And depending on the hp they begin with, he can take it to any of the strong duelist junglers like Lee, Mundo, Shyv. If you're someone like Amumu or Mao, you better hope Skarner doesn't find you alone cause there is literally no escape for you. | ||
