As much as I like playing Renekton, seeing him and nasus in competitive games is just such a trite combo. I hesitate to call him OP, but having them get HP gain and AOE damage while already being buff and having sustain is just, kinda unexciting 'oh look they engaged and the Ren/Nasus double ulted again and ran around till everyone else died' I realize you can eventually zone them and if you put them behind ignore me a bit, but meh.

I kind of wanted TSB to win, but letting Nasus/Renekton through a second time was so dumb that they simply didn't deserve it. E: Wait, was Nasus even in the second game? I already forgot. Comrade Question fucked around with this message at 23:38 on May 10, 2013 |

Miftan posted:"It's a good thing Velocity has a drill sergeant". Studio shoutout on stream by the casters. I think they're referring to Maplestreet when they say that (to tie it into TheOddOne being "The General"). Or was the context for that one different?

Vileroze landed all the right lasers as lux, though, he's definitely the reason they edged out those last two games

Fair. So what makes Varus' ult so hard to land? I've never played as him.

The projectile seems pretty slow, but I think it's mostly confirmation bias. IIRC, there was a game where Yellowpete missed a bunch of them and now everyone just goes "OMG VARUS ULT" whenever one misses.

I've never really had issues landing Varus ult but I'm guessing the pro's can just tell when you're trying to land it and move out of the way. It travels about as fast or faster than a Blitz hook so E: I was curious so I checked. Varus ult travel speed is 2000 and Blitz's grab is 1800. So Varus ult is easier to land than Blitz grabs.

Why doesn't Shen ever get banned in pro games? He's the most boring/annoying/confounding son of a bitch in the whole game, and he's in every game! What is the counterplay to Shen splitpushing with his ult up?

Studio posted:Was it l0cust? His Sona ults are kinda rear end. L0cust played a really solid Thresh the second game. They were just all around solid not making many mistakes or throwing. All I remember is that Otter had good positioning and never got caught out. Most of the plays were failed initiations on L0cust and TS just cleaning them up after. Captain Korea had enough AP that he melted the tanks before they could take down the enemy AD carry. IBentMyWookie fucked around with this message at 02:52 on May 11, 2013 |

What's everyone's predictions for today? I think Complexity will 3-2 Quantic by playing non-standard. That's Quantic's one real weakness right now and Complexity should know it and how to abuse it. MRN will 3-1 Velocity. I feel that this one is far more of a tossup, but I have faith that 10 weeks in the LCS did MRN well and we'll see more solid play out of them than we did Velocity yesterday.

Riftling posted:What's everyone's predictions for today? I'm really torn on Quantic-CoL because I really like both teams. I think it'll be a toss up either way. As for Velocity and MRN, I really want Velocity to win, but I don't think they're up for it. MRN's improved a lot from their qualifier until now and we're about to see how much better 10 weeks of LCS matches make a team.

Quantic 3-0 Complexity - Quantic are a good established team while Complexity have the experience of LCS but were never really up to it apart from the odd game. Marn 3-2 Velocity - Megazero will be the difference I think, he'll win his lane every game and tip the balance.

It travels about as fast or faster than a Blitz hook so It's easy enough to land on one person, but it's incredibly hard to have his ult hit the majority of a team.

I'm most interested in CLG vs AzureCats. CLG has seemed like they've been in a huge meltdown and AC seems like they've got the proverbial "hunger" to move to the next step. They definitely had some weak spots though from watching their games yesterday.

Riftling posted:What's everyone's predictions for today? Quantic 3-0, I don't think Complexity is that good. MRN will 3-0 Velocity. Velocity is a really shaky team and seemed to barely win it yesterday. MRN is inconsistent but with 10 weeks of LAN experience they are not going to have the nerves that Velocity has. TS vs Dignitas, Dig seems to be on a really bad tilt at the moment so going to call it 3-2 for Dig. CLG vs AzureCats, 3-1 Azurecats. The way CLG has been playing losing to MRN and Vulcan just shows how easily they can fall apart and throw. Azurecats have a better top lane and jungler. Link vs Jiji is a wash since neither is all that aggressive. Doublelift and Aphromoo are fine if left alone but they are going to get ganked and Chauster will not be there to counter.
