Better Maokai play than Snoopeh
|
These guys make Mao look pretty strong. Wonder if that has anything to do with the lack of 2v1 lanes.

I'm really impressed with the picks from both teams this game. These are very modern picks; usually scenes outside of the really established scene often lags behind in picks/bans.
That lissandra + maokai gank was nasty.

I think whoever makes it to cologne will be the favourite for the wildcard
Don't know too much about CIS, Oceana looked weak and the turkish team did decently at Dreamhack but pain and cnb both look a bit better as far as I can tell, of course it's hard actually evaluate them properly without cross region play.

Pain and CNB looks pretty good from what I can tell. They're playing mechanically fine; but their map movement looks very rudimentary; but I doubt the other wild card regions are even close to how advanced CNB and Pain are.
CNB and Pain's picks are very modern picks; meaning they are watching other regions.

Yes! That's what makes it so exciting IMO. Can't wait to see how they match up!

CNB might have to ban lissandra next game. paiN is really good at utilizing her.

Pain out csing CNB so hard this game. Jungler ganking well for Pain; CNB needs to rotate lanes out better to force lane mismatch and take early towers.

That lissandra + maokai gank was nasty. Their general play style looks everything but modern though.

Yeah, both teams look kinda indecisive at times, running around aimlessly on the map or overextending without reason. They sure know how to skirmish, though - some great layering of CCs, and that Lissandra/Maokai vs. Zac/Elise/Jayce fight was pretty intense, with Maokai bodyblocking the Cocoon to Lissandra could blow someone up after popping out of Zhonya Stasis
Considering other regions, don't underestimate CIS. These guys can easily set up scrims with LCS/EU Challenger-level teams, and even though EU-NE is considered weaker than EUW, there's still quite a bunch of quality players over there
|
This is probably too late, but they should have had Zac be involved in more skirmishes and have Jayce farm the offlane vs Kennen.

CNB made major rookie mistake. With Cait/zyra lane, they should have 2v1'd midlane. Have the zac or Jayce in 1v2 lane; out push the mid lane, and grab early mid turret. Then rotate out the lanes. Also; not sure if I like the Elise pick into Maokai; Didn't get to see ban/pick phase, but something like nunu or lee sin would be a really nice anti-maokai pick.

Pain are doing a great job of assigning kills to Kog'Maw; v.unselfish play from the Liss.
|
Jungle elise pick is fine, but you're right about having subpar lane assignments and rotations.
|
This game is such a stomp; 10k lead at 25 min mark >.<

Jeez; i love watching a farmed kog; it's such a silly champion. Oh is that health I see? NOT ANYMORE. LET ME SPIT ALL OVER YOU. BLURGH BLURGH BLURGH. NO MORE HEALTH BITCH.
This nami is pretty good; she's hit a lot of her Q's and ultis in crucial times (not like it matters though, this game is a stomp).

SO nice seeing a Kog that isn't on the front lines. Forgot how much damage he can do when he doesn't die at the start of every fight

Pain WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING.
NOW THE FREE BARON. LOL. I guess it wouldn't be LoL tourney without the throws.
