TSM this whole tournament looked like Koreans playing NA teams.

They were a legit notch above the EU teams in almost every aspect. I think the biggest difference between NA and EU was NA jungler strength, however. Every NA jungler popped off against the euros. Sven looked great on Khazix and Gragas in addition to Lee. I don't know if that will translate back in NA though, or at worlds, obviously. As much love as EU mids get, it was great to see Bjergsen dumpster all of them. And Doublelift's positioning was immaculate all tournament long.

Pretty much. TSM and NA in general did what they were supposed to do, beat the worst region and do it convincingly.

You know EU is 100% scrambling back to the drawing board right now, you have half a split left to get your shite together for Worlds or you go in there in current state and won't get a single team out of groups and get smashed by most.

Did what they were suppose to do? You were the one talking about how nobody expected NA to win more than a few games.

The salt online from the EU kids is real

"This tournament doesn't matter"

"0-10!!!"

"LCK will stomp everyone anyways!"

I want to believe TSM is finally clicking with the more diverse picks/strats that they have been branching out with. I just don't know if EU was good enough competition to really prove that.

EDG just took down Samsung to start off LCK vs LPL RR Finals. EDG hadn't won a game at 0-3.

And WE takes down SKT holy shite LCK has to reverse sweep or LPL wins Rift Rivals.

RNG takes down MVP and the LPL wins Rift Rivals over LCK 3-1.

Nah I don't think they or any LCK team for that matter took the event too serious.

SKT is in that yearly phase where they begin to swap junglers again because Peanut is struggling. Blank to the rescue!

Now a team with serious issues is KTR.

But have to give LPL credit, very strong region. WE is a legit threat.

SKT's bot lane is trash and Peanut can only play Lee, serious issues for that team right now.

It's funny how you're saying the best team in the world 2 years running that their bot lane is trash. Trash as in they will once again be the heavy favorites at Worlds this year?

Yea, TSM's B-tier ADC shite on everyone at Rift Rivals and hard-carried most mid-late game teamfights.

Ashe I have determined her being on the bottom of champion.gg ADC rankings is a bit misleading. her playrate is really high, has loads of utility, she just doesn't have the high dmg numbers due to no crits, I suppose

She gets crits from her passive if I'm not mistaken. (although it's been a while since I've played her).

That and any team oriented champions seem to have shite win rates, but can be beastly if you play with people you know who will actually coordinate with you.

Same reason why Tryn, Pantheon and Teemo all have high win rates, yet we never see them in LCS

This combined with the fact that if you happen to get in a game against a single player on an engage champion that knows to prioritize you, chances are you aren't going to get any peel worth a shite until you hit gold. I like Ashe too but I had to drop her because she just relies too much on the team. You have to be able to protect yourself.

Kayn is so fun holy shite. Shadow form is weak and will need some tweaking to be strong he's Durkin every time right now.
