Inven release their NA LCS power rankings

1. TSM
2. TL
3. CLG
4. 100T
5. C9

Rest, who cares.

Interesting that their weakness for TSM is Mithy saying:

quote:

Arguably, the more worrisome player, however, is Mithy. Although his synergy with Zven is definitely something else, Mithy gathered experience by playing through Lemondog, Origen, and G2 - and all of these teams had troubles in macro and securing objectives in the late-game. Also, in the past, when TSM had Bjergsen as the main shotcaller, the team showed signs of struggle.

I'd say it looks like they have it 1A 1B, they don't list a weakness for TL.

The Most Unpredictable Season: 2018 NA LCS Spring Split Power Ranking

Plus that title.

Aside from TSM, TL actually looks to be the most stable out of the 10 teams in the NA LCS - not to mention the potential of the carries in the team. TL’s advancement to the playoffs will not be a surprising one.


I would not have 100T over C9 either, jungle and adc are too damn important in this meta and 100T has frickin' Meteos and Cody Sun. Not to mention how bad Ryu was.

Meteos is still a good jungle. And cody sun just played in worlds. Ryu was great on that team wasnt he? He just grew tired of playing and sat out like the last 3 or so weeks I thought?

I wouldn't call Meteos good, not with the other junglers now in the league. Below average.

Ryu was terrible all summer long, he gets so much shite from the League media. I've watched Thorin and Gafford's late night talk show and jesus do people think Ryu is shite now. Maybe he surprises but I doubt it.

Cody Sun is terrible.

Your stats site you use labeled him as the 2nd best ADC behind DL last year

Not trying to rustle any jimmies I just think thats a fine team that could end up making the playoffs fairly easily. I could see those two teams fighting for the 4th spot very easily.

No but these new team names suck.

Agreed. Shitty names in multiple regions this year.


On another note how's placements going errbody? I'm sitting at 4-4. Most likely staring at a low-mid silver placement.

I went 6-4 on my secondary account and got sil 1.

It was gold 5.



And now its gold. That was without a doubt the easiest ride to gold ever.

Friend of mine came over this week and got stuck at my house for the past couple of days so we decided to duo our 10 placements to see how we could do.

He plays jungle and I play mid.

We go 9-1. He hasn't played ranked the past two seasons, gets placed Gold III. I finished Silver III last season, get placed Silver III again. We were the only two not Gold + in the placements it seemed like.

Man I was salty. I was really hoping to get placed a little higher even though it was a long shot.

Hopefully my MMR has gone up so I can climb faster.

LCS going back to one game series is going to feel so bad. I'll watch the other games for the first few weeks but eventually the pack will separate some and I'll completely disregard the lower ranked teams games again.

Game 3 of JAG vs. SKT took 98 minutes. JAG took the series 2-1. SKT took SIX barons and FIVE Elder Dragons and still lost. JAG themselves got 3 barons and an elder.

TSM is still piling on sponsors. Now partnered with Dr. Pepper.
