So apex is literally just Curse rebranded with the "scale to late game" strategy every game. Exciting.

Shoutout to my boy keane, my boy xpecial oh and you know I'm not forgetting my boy, the legend, the NA Grandmaster, the best jungler in the world, Saint... Viscous. Sounds like you've been watching the wrong region. Might I suggest checking out some EU games?

GreyPowerVan posted:Who said that. when you look at a c9 interview through a Rabidsquid lense it is actually all 5 members of the original team beating Bunny with socks full of quarters. He's an empathetic person and it goes to reason he would not be a fan.

This meta doesn't seem to suit CLG at all. Aphro is without his engage tanks and Huhi is completely useless on every champion they put him on. I don't think they are going to fix either of those issues any time soon.

In a stunning surprise, C9 looks better and better as the split goes on. They owed a lot to Impact there though. Best games of the split by him by far.

c9 is being punished for their patience and willingness to let the first 3 dragons of a game go in exchange for turrets. Smoothie is also not adding much though.

How do you give every member of CLG their favorite champions two games in a row?

Man, as a c9 fan these were hard to match. C9 looked like garbage and Jensen would do more good by leaving the game. He certainly isn't going to leave his loving lane.

That game was too long, but fun. APX was all about dogpiling into any opportunity, but Jensen put the fear of Malzahar into them and that blunted aggression kept them from ever closing the game.

Even the C9 haters gotta give it up for that much CC dodging. That was loving horrific and Sneaky probably got ptsd now.

Would C9 really sell those players off to another organization? I assumed they would just sell off the spot and keep them all in perpetual enslavement.

Firebert posted:I have to imagine that 3 of Altec/Balls/Hai/Lemon stay on when the team is sold and C9 puts Contractz on their main squad as a sub or even replace Meteos with him. They'd be stupid to let let such a promising young jungler go. Oh yeah. Well in that case I would hope they retain Contractz and the others are finally severed from C9. I could see Hai leading a team for the hell of it and then rejoining C9 if it doesn't work.

Do to a lack of chanpion points does c9 need to win the playoffs tournament to get to Worlds, or is there another route?

This seems like the worst match up C9 could have with their cautious style, but this is already the best game they have played all split.

Is Syndra broken or is Jensen just really good on it? He is rarely in any kind of trouble, wave clears, seems to be fine on mana even without a blue buff. It all looks so effortless.

Hasn't target banning Unforgiven and Doublelift been pretty big, especially with Lucian at his zenith? Imp's Twitch was also terrifying.

If IMT played to their strengths and had C9's comp in that game it would probably been over in 20. They have to drop the ball pretty hard to lose this series. Go C9. Catapult yourself once again off the startling incompetence of a better team. This is the cycle and it cannot end.

C9 really did improve there from game to game and by game 5 they were looking like the far superior team. Impact styling on Huni. Jensen never really pressured. Bot lane crushing. Some actual attention payed to dragon control. Good for them.

Maguoob posted:Wasn't it DIG vs REN last split with the deaths to herald and bot tower? Look where both of those teams are now! May the same fate fall upon Immortals. C9's biggest strength has always been to learn from their games and fix their flaws. They even got a legitimate coach this season. I don't think, given time, they will face the same problems.

CLG looking like the 4th best team in NA. if C9 beats TSM does that put TSM in the second seed and force CLG to go through the gauntlet?

I think C9 looks like the second best team in NA right now, but they just don't have as many tools as TSM. If they play like they did in the later games vs immortals and don't give away the first 3 dragons then maybe they can match their tempo and come out ahead. Ah, gently caress it. You can do it C9

Should have stuck with the Shen. Also TSM remembered that shutting down Jensen stops C9 dead in their tracks.

C9 has never been willing to give up on picks because they lose a game. They always think they purely missplayed. This has burned them, but ehhh I can see their thinking here.

Is Samsung good again? I haven't heard anyone mention them the last two splits but here they are going to Worlds. Apparently Skt is also sneaking in off the back of weak finishes just like CLG? Is this the weakest Korean lineup we have seen going into Worlds or are they expected to slaughter?
