    Maybe, if you're playing against TL, you should ban Azir. Might just be me, but I have a feeling that it would be successful.

    two open inhibs let's fight over TIPs second dragon! It doesn't help that they walked into every skill one of gates lasers.

    Got super greedy on that last inhib but now they can't kill victor or kog

    Edit: wtf TL!
    TL picks gate enabling a three inhib push but lose jungler on way out. Then piglet goes back and cedes baron to the 4 of TIP for no reason since Gate had to defend super minion waves

    For real though
    impact chasing fenix so far threw. Had he turned the other way they would have won that fight hard and taken two inhibs sealing the deal.

    Then they went for dragon preventing number 5 and got out positioned

    If he hasn't, free inhibs tho.

    Azir isn't that fast and Kog pushes harder. If Azir choses to try to counter with inhibs rather than backing and/or trying to make a hero play then TL loses the game as TIP takes the base.

    Betting on Gravity for this match. I think that TL took a lot more out of TIP than TDK took out of Gravity.

    @Sprout Congrats and congrats on 1st place as well.

    Thanks, I needed to redeem my poor showing last split. I owe it all to Fnatic, really. I think the team and Rekkles were the only slots on my roster I never felt the need to tinker with.

    It was broken when they had to play against CLG. Aphro can't carry the team against Xpecial.

    CLG certainly lived up to the name this game. The positioning and teleports were... interesting. Then again, I'm no pro. Standing next to a enemy Nidalee may be the best idea.

    i'm wondering how close liftlift is to retiring after that thresh hook.

    Pick/ban determines game again
    The TF pick killed CLG. Viktor is strong against TF in lane and in team fights and in fame structure and they picked TF into him. Most importantly it leaves no way for TF to get a fight but fizz being a hero and once Zion can't do that perfectly then gg. If TF was someone stronger in lane/team fights/game structure then maybe.

    Maan I suck with GP. I do much better with Darius, but he isn't really good as a teamfighter. GP technically should be, but I'm not having much success with that either.

    Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.

    GP is a split pusher and duelist. Not really a team fighter. You can, if you're good with setting barrel trap chains but that is not easy and better done as a defense while splitting.

    Anyone have any suggestions on item builds for jungle Xin? I'm building warrior/chilling on him currently and finding that works really well. But I'm thinking devourer might be decent on him too?

    So... Elise? I picked her up at launch because of her "Oooh shiny!"-factor, and then understood I did not get juggling at all...

    But since then I've played her as a cautious mage in ARAM, who also happen to eat the inevitable super hero wannabe who constantly step out of position. And those are way more frequent in these mark/dash-days. I love her human kit, but never spend enough time in spider form to truly master the E and timing in duelling. She seems to be on the way back, and these days I have tried a little more jungling. It's about time, then. Would anyone care to share some spidery advice for a noob jungler? And why are the champs I like the aesthetics on so hard to master :( Murrrr....

    I'm no expert (far, far, far from it), but I think it's Q,W,E for the first three levels, then R>Q>W>E. Runeglaive first, then AP/Tank/CDR. Taking creeps is usually "launch human W, Q, spiderform, W, Q" to maximize both Q's on either end. W helps with sustain, and use Rangers at least the first few times you play her, for the extra sustain. Remember you can use spider E while jungling to shorten your path.

    Thanks. I guess its back to Sion/Olaf for more teamfight synergy. They need to hurry up and give Olaf a new model already.

    He's funny, but I can't stand Brolaf. I just want his base model to be updated so it doesn't look so old.

    I probably haven't played in....god, I think 2 years now. But I'm reading these LCS spoilers.
    Kassadin? Jarvan?

    IRELIA?

    That is some serious way back machine stuff

    Now all I need is a Riven VU Revamp(Not a mechanics revamp, like, straight up Visual Update concept revamp. She is like, the one character in league that does not match her lore description at ALL).

    So after losing, and losing and losing on GP. I break out the ol' Darius and proceed to stomp the Gnar in my lane and go 20/3/9 to win the game. I know Dar has the noobcrusher rep, but can you actually be valuable to your team later on as you start fighting better opponents?

    yeah but instead of being the pentakiller you usually just end up fatting around and scaring everyone

    So the bodyguard/implied threat aspect of Darius does have value even in higher skill games? I just want to feel that I'm bringing something to the team.
