Having the best showing and I do think that when mad are able to you know get nisi on something that he’s comfortable with he has been known to be a really big carry for the team as this is something saw in plays a lot as well
High priority on TOA Flex pick you can pick like a reekon put her in the jungle have the the Synergy there can sh M against a lot of picks that are popular right now um they also have the opportunity to pick Tristana for what feels like the first time this
Tournament um I don’t think it has been permanently banned but it’s felt pretty close the ran being the consideration of course another extraordinarily popular pick can be paired with the zire right here if they would like to but that does mean that that Tristana could go through
And like you’re saying blabber can head towards the jungle with the Tia or something like that has certainly been something that we’ve seen coming back hilly going to be picking up the raan here raan obviously a champion that feels like the most well-rounded support just does everything very well we are
Starting to see some drops in the ra priority I think ra very early on was something we saw a lot of uh the jarvin though going to give oid opportunity to make an early impact on the map while still scaling in a decent threet I do think that picking a jarvin this early
Though when you don’t know what the enem is going to be bringing to the ad carry roll can backfire we’ll see if cenan actually wants to lean into that or if they’re just going to pick something stationary and say hey it’s fine uh we’ll find a way to deal with the
Cataclysms once it gets to that yep you come to and that is going to be the Cante locked in here for fudge his most played Champion overall this year and has an incredibly High win rate of course they’re not really um strangers to high win rates C9 have done very very
Well and the Z going to be picked up here so not even looking at that Tristana that uh I guess I’m mistakenly spoke about a little bit earlier on nisi hovering some stuff we’ll see where he is going to land uh as we get this first round of
Picks finished up so the Star Cross lovers little bit of a sad situation there with raan and desire also means yeah also means that unfortunately for Berserker not going to have the best of times and this is the azreal now this is no slight to carzy specifically who who does love the
Champion but uh I think Ezreal has been pretty underwhelming thus far in theory it makes a lot of sense right Ezreal is a very self self-sufficient pick raan as he likes to do we’ll be able to have a lot of impact on the map particularly when you pair him up with jarvin and
Ezreal is fine on an island outrange the Zia but in practice just hasn’t really felt like the azals that we’ve seen D far have been able to pop off and particularly in some into something like the Cante who gets really beefy finding High volue Mystic shots can be somewhat
Of an issue certainly uh able to Lane relatively effectively against the Z does win that range battle with the Mystic shot so next round of band’s going to come through here as the natilis going to be taken away from zven makes a bit of sense there of course
Often just paired with z in general but just not wanting to allow that engage to come through from Z towards the bottom side we’ll see whether he does go with a rail like you were talking about which is still up and available might get a
Look at here in our next round of bands Rumble taken away from Chasey of course watching fudge in the final didn’t look like he was too worried about rumbles um Renekton just looking like a counter pick which is not how I was uh used to seeing that matchup Chronicle yeah my
Pick him’s also not too happy about that one I was a little bit more crocodile what I do like for the C9 draft th far is that this TOA still can go either to Mid or to Jungle to haven’t really given a lot away and I think the flex
Potential uh particularly again you get one shot right this is your first round of Swiss one opportunity and uh making sure that you try and give your opponent hard time as possible to respond to your draft in kind is definitely a big one now expectation would be to see
Something picked for Chas here you already know your match up in Top Lane and then save that counter pick for nisi or you pick Tristana and then last pick Gwen sure um I don’t know whether it’s a good idea I would I would have mind it I think Gwen into Cante obviously very
Comfortable match up but they’re going to do that half right um but that means that uh the TR going to be more difficult because of course like you were talking about the flexibility of the Tia could come through here the aliser going to be the option first and
This pick um I’m expecting to see a lot of play uh or at least a lot of attention in the draft uh in the in this stage that as that’s a Jack look in here for uh a look at here for fudge that would mean that cassant is going to head
Towards the mid lane something that M&S has done before so very melee heavy as far as solo Lanes but with the Tia that we can now Flex into that jungle they can make up for a bit of that where is Sven going to go now do like the initial
Setup here4 C9 it means that you have a lot of lanes to play through uh and and what the himer would do if it does get locked in is not allow hilly to actually roam as much going to be aliser instead which I do think works really well with
The comp it also means that in every single Lane you have toia set up right so no matter where blabber is going to go you’re able to make place off of that now for Mad knowing what you’re playing into into that Cante lot of options still uh open although as as mentioned
Of the high profile picks have been banned away uh but but syndra has been perfectly capable and I think particularly into the I always really like I think having some form outside of the Asal poke of ways of dealing with a champion like desia forcing maybe defensive coold Downs early on in the
Fight always going to be really valuable yep it does mean that the Cante gets to dodge the Gwen matchup um by flexing it towards the mid lane another really cool thing here so mad not going to quite have that Ace up their sleeve necessarily but with another um melee
Matchup in that mid lane for the syndra to kind of pre on of course laning phase early should be something that nski can really take advantage of and then in the latest stages of the game their longrange pick is actually very very high with scatter of the week and then
The followup with TR sha barage things like that El yoya can then get on top you can engage from about a million miles away as the Javin so opportunities here for Mad to make things happen but I think the ease of execution isn’t the lowest on the Mad side of things they’re
Going to have to really be on point here in this game yeah that’s my main concern I think the Mad comp does have a ton of agency a lot of damage a lot of upfront burst and power plus I think a 1 14 setup maybe even one for one you know
With the mobility that they have with the sreal the jarv and the raan Gwen in a side lane but executing it then I think I really favor C9 this is a very straightforward front to back you have a good mixed damage profile high damage fra into toia you have the Zia with a
Ton of front line and Ja the match up that I think fudge is not going to be too unhappy about no exactly and you mentioned 41 something that fudge can definitely execute himself the fact that Weavers wall can get a TIA there very nocturnes who is one of the most popular
131 junglers uh to have it’s a very similar thing with the tier as well you’re always pretty close to getting into that lane to help things out if you would like to so I think eyes are going to be pretty glued towards that top side
Of the map and of course it does count come down to the junglers as well and with just these two beefy boys in the Solar Lanes blabber is going to have a lot on his shoulders on this Tia but here we are onto the rift for our second
Game of the day C9 trying to take down the Mad Lions C9 I always just expect to be saying first seat out of the LCS that is not the case this time around and so far no Shenanigans in this early game and our featured matchup is of course happening right now blabber
Versus El yoya presented by Mercedes-Benz blabber already just threading the volleys and there it is that’s the matchup right there it’s perfect he already got hit by uh by a flag post y that’s an oh yeah that’s a big Advantage uh mad in the matchup but
The threat of volley came back as well and and also hit I I miss the start of it didn’t really do a whole lot unfortunately uh the downside of TOA particularly in the form that she has current L right if you go back a couple of Seasons then she was actually really
Strong early game picked often with as we mentioned Point click stuns like the Renekton uh not nearly so much of it really needs to get her items I think at the very least you’re looking at picking up your Mythic before you really start to become a frat and that does mean that
Ooya has a ton of opportunity to try and make things happen early also jarin one of the few junglers that can actually get really really scary level two ganks off we’ll see if mad is going to try and leverage that also do know Chasey going for the ignite fudge also going for
Lethal Tempo so lot of aggression expected there uh in that Top Lane between those two no 100% not going we’ve seen like some of these ghost options as well um from the gwens um but the ignite very very aggressive like you were talking about in this mid lane we
Have so we have seen uh gante matchups actually work out relatively well against some of these Mages especially the skill shot based ones if you can use your dash effectively to get out of the way of things and and eloa is going to bring the flag down blabber waste no
Time flashing out of the way of that one and he is just going to get about his business just going to get away from this whole situation aloya feeling like the damage is being done though so blabber going to be able to still take his chickens yeah and nice to get the
Flesh there from yoya uh but because of the mid lane situation Ms actually able to get a little bit of early damage down uh and was able to already path towards those Raptors so Alo not wanting to risk also Hy was already moving up uh in case
We did get a longer play ended up not being the case does mean that ooya is going to be a little bit delayed in the outside of the flashh not get a whole lot we’re going to see if he’s actually able to get a lot going as yeah trading
Into an Aftershock uh for the syndra not a very fun experience yeah and uh so far m& is actually looking really good as hilang is already here just seeing whether there’s going be an angle looks like that is not going to be the case as fge jumps in or leaps
In I should say onto chasy looks like the’s going to be all right for now evening out the Cs it was looking a little bit dire for a moment there but of course that is just a wave moving towards the Gwen Chase is going to be
Able to at least uh do his best in this Lane there’s another dive forward here as Chasey does put down the uh the Mist but it’s not exactly an immunity situation against a point blank Jacks no the extra resistances are going to help you out a little bit but particularly
With the lethal Tempo like longer trades just aren’t really an option we see as well M&S actually doing a great job here aggressively keeping nisi on the turret and particularly with Doran shield and After Shock like the ability of a Syra to bully out kante not really looking
Too hot might be a double Scuttle situation here so C9 actually able to absorb the early pressure from aoya and then get out the head although as long as blabber doesn’t get punished for his lack of flash which could of course still happen yep and he can move
Relatively quickly around the map and things like that as long as C9 keep some uh vision control blab should be absolutely fine he’s going to ride the wall and look to head back down towards this bottom side it looks like the crow Camp as it is going to be coming up
Relatively soon is going to be his first Port of Call and we also see blabber already picking up his L chapter actually wasn’t able to get a look at his runes but particularly uh something we see very often with junglers that are looking to get their Mythic as soon as possible or
Are very riing on initial item Spike can be lost chapter can be Durk see Future’s chapter used a lot Y in this case though blabber uh already has his lost chapter meaning that he is going to be completely fine in terms of mana and also as mentioned the current Foria
Really looking to get to the Mythic as soon as you possibly can and uh despite aloya trying to introduce some delays not going to have have too much slowing down now could be an angle here will get spotted just going to immediately back away did have that Ward there but leap
Stried a little bit early that is going to be the flash to follow up still gets the knock up and that is First Blood with the last tick ofing knite for JC amazing follow up there from El yoya if fudge is able to complete that leap
Strike able to flash out that was very close to a botched one as well because that was right at the end of the flag and drag it really was and uh if you don’t have that flash and and that play doesn’t work out it’s a disaster instead
Really big winner cuz the the kill goes to Chasey as well so chy in a match up that I do think leans towards ja but is by no means uh one that that if you get far enough ahead is unwinable or unplayable for the Gwen not going to
Feel too bad now chasc did have to back the shove in from blabber means that uh we’re going to have a little maybe two minions gone but with a cannon not going to be the end of the world and fudge here uh crucially um didn’t use one
Until the end and then aoya doing an amazing job there maybe if you flash upwards could be a little bit too far off for ooya but uh fudge not able to get out of that one and I feel like fudge did almost as much as he possibly
Could do because he waited until the most opportune moment to get that flash off but the reaction time from aloya just incredible to make sure that he still gets the knockup blabber in position we’ll see whether he can find himself a seismic shove under Chasey exactly gets a ward down as well laber
Had vacated the area leaching Le is in his back pocket though he is pretty scary on this Gwen closer and closer to this Rift maker more devastating you can get as these snip Snips really do start to take their toll I I don’t think they have the damage especially with Gwen having ultimate
Available and looks like they’re going to decide against it Chase he also clearly knew that something something suspicious was going on as hilly running towards Top Lane as he does try and particularly without Flash fudge can definitely be a somewhat suceptible Target also not sitting on the ward
Right now no pink in inventory is about to hit it it’s pretty large minion wave um but J is going to push this one in so hilly I don’t think is going to have too much of an option as fudge probably not just going to dive on top of Chasey in
This moment but still full Lane control here for the Gwen and like you were saying this is a flippy match up as Hill just expecting something to happen he’s like I’m going to leave but before I do let’s see hey he got a cannon stack yeah um that’s uh
That’s that’s not going to be the best uh because as a result Cari is still going to get zoned off here he’s going to get berserker his first plate this is something you do expect to happen we did see though that C9 not actually being
Able to like deny a huge wave not able to get more than one plate I think playing it safe as well because they didn’t actually know where hilly was paying the respect that he does deserve yep is uh yeah shows himself right as the way is going disapp be fine on a
Ward here is not going to about the presence of the cow towards the mid lane and is just going to mosy his way down towards the bottom side of the map Blaha now towards this top side uh the first Rift Herald has spawned we call her
Shelly uh in the LC second one is Shirley just to catch you guys up try not to use too many LC isms um because they can be confusing but sometimes we can’t help it yeah there is all lexicon at this point yeah there is uh knock up
On Spen though he does have the unbreakable will so no real threat of dying but if they put that ultimate on cool down could be a problem as Berserker going aggressive on aazy bottom side laying down the L for the moment Ki not exactly feeling the
Happiest as the ezil in this match up at this point in time also seeing mad what did want to do we don’t want to contest with hly moving back up looks like that is indeed the angle here might be looking at a four versus four here fudge
Does have pry towards top side so should be able to rotate through earlier and we’ll see picking up an early Herold would be big here JC moving a little bit late can actually go back for that one minion fudge comes on down that is going to be C9 locking down the
First Herald m going to collect that one just the tankiest one had the most chance of survival he’s going to be able to get out not going to be a to collect the crab and mad will back away as well so still just the first Blood
In this game and C9 back on the board as far as their ability to make some gold this game so should be a very even situation after that charge does come through yeah would expect him to use it towards the mid lane try and crack that
One open as soon as possible as blabber first time no success save the second time hits here of course Chasey not having a flash or ghost makes gangs all the more exciting as there we go there it is the unravel Earth comes down Chase going to try and get himself out of here
The Counter Strike doesn’t quite work but he doesn’t have too much more cataclysm going to come on through can he get any kills back aoya not going to be able to find it Z just uses the ultimate beautifully to survive everything and C9 are on the board
Really nicely done there even with BL not able to actually find the knockback because Chasey used the W blabber wasn’t in range the followup is enough Zan immediately grabs turret argro which ensures that with his ultimate he is fine fudge might have to pay the price here though perhaps sisang looking for
His opportunity grand entrance does come through there’s the counter strike though one heck of an ability the ignite comes through quickness going to be utilized as well they do not want to leave anything to chance and eloa is going to skew the Jacks for a second
Kill from that and the RO from hang working out this time around as Berserker and Cary they’re still here guys don’t worry they’re in this game I swear we saw like one ultimate from carzi uh maybe as uh yeah the we is well going to come on through
Here is ky going to try and look to try and get himself out of the way and he does so beautifully seismic shove has to land if he’s going to make that one work TR sh barage connects as well but he’s overstepped and gaz’s going to get punished by Berserker we could say
Baited by blabber but unfortunately I think it was more of a kazy stepped a bit too far forward desperately wanted to get the kill there on blabber who still had his flash available as well and into the welcoming arms of berserker Zia getting an early kill particularly in a setup
With as much front line as this always going to feel great and mad able to get that top side kill was nice but one of the reasons why the Ezreal is seen as such a safe pick is because it’s so incredibly hard to consistently lock him down um but the
Moment you start falling behind with a pick like that particularly if there is front line in the form of Alistar and Cante can definitely run into some issues that’s going to be a lot of Cs missing now they the plate not going over to C9 is nice but in by itself not
Enough and I think that you just have to accept right you you absorb the gank maybe your team has an opportunity to uh go extra aggressive on the top side of the map get some extra damage down oh you you can like you understand exactly how he was feeling right like
You see that health bar like that that’s one Q that’s one q and I get him not the case flash as well so still getting caught by the rude unfortunately is chasc yeah blabber is going to spot him out and he says nope you’re not going to
Be able to steal this one away from me going to overstep as well as the Gwen is pretty scary does just have his SK steel caps completed after that leaching Le that he’s had for quite a while so je shop perhaps blab is going to move himself
Towards his bottom side so First Rate goes to C9 as all right that is going to be M&S finding hilly he’s looking to try and get himself out ground entrance going to be enough in order to do so does have to burn the Flash not exactly
The favorite thing for a raan who wants to use that to get these fights started yeah overstepping a little bit mad was also invading the top half of the map where they have great vision control so Hy then trying to also apply some pressure get down some Vision in the
Bottom half of the map will end up getting punished let’s get away with his life as uh M&S does have to tank a little bit of damage we will be able to pick up his little Cannon there and uh carzy obviously Ezreal you’re always going to be fine uh if it’s one maybe
Two of those kills uh if they start stacking up though we definitely going to be in trouble and we do see nisi as mentioned early game I think Cante does have a lot of agency in that 1 V one the moment that uh the LeAndre has done
Really changes uh niski is going to be able to whittle down M&S as we see there as uh gold lead here for Berserker it’s not insurmountable but uh for a guy who has been great with leads and very pivotal to C9 on a hyper carry still
Going to be feeling pretty good yeah uh he’s looked incredible just get berserker the items that he needs and he reliably carries has been a bit of a mantra for C9 another weave is W going to come on through here as blab is going to show up Chasey in a whole host of
Trouble the needle workk doing a fair bit though here as fudge going to try and get out of there it’s Ben going to be the one to lock it down though and bit of the question mark I think the answer to that question is you got a
Kill and this is a lot invested and and the problem for m is that there is no crossmap response right uh aoya was actually backing not able to make anything happen there’s no dragon on the map uh and the rest of C9 playing respectful as well we don’t see
Berserker overextended by himself and even with the vision control that Matt have in the enemy jungle doesn’t actually end up being enough to find a counterplay C9 pulling ahead going to be a pick up first brick here as well o great little pick up there as V going to
Have to blow the flash get himself out of the situation does have hex flash so getting that flash on cool down very very important something that I’ve spoken about many many times as kazy be able to take down the turret on the bottom side of the map and the
Lane economy snapshot provided by MasterCard is going to show us things going well 4 C9 outside of support and mid lanane otherwise it is all blue and this is exactly the same combo they used earlier right the trio of blabber uh fudge and Sven and for Chasey even with
The sustain that Gren has there just isn’t really enough you can do they don’t even really need to rely on svent tank thinking right fudge is able to take a few hits then drop out the ignite not going to be enough Rift maker is now done I was kind of wondering if we’re
Going to see any of the rocket belt uh Gwen also has been a really popular build but instead it will just be the classic Rift maker uh really strong in the one V1 and makes Gwen feel like a real Champion able to win these longer fights and make those you know iconic on
V multiple people Gwen plays where uh with your ultimate you sustain for everything I’m wondering when we going to see the a Cari answer once again on the top side of the map I know a lot of topers have been playing a heck of a lot
Of AAR in SOL SOL doesn’t give us a lot of information and okay chasy knows we’re ganking the turret exactly it’s out of turret it stands no chance where’s your flash um fudge is going to be able to take that one down Spen of course making sure that no one’s going
To turn up chasy is going to do so M getting information Spen not going to be there but still fudge going to be able to take this one down so one to two as far as these turrets are concerned things working out as far as Sid Lane
Priority for C9 as well feels like the Jacks is working out here for fudge and we did see the herald being taken on the other end for mad and they will be able to get a charge tur very low and picking that up going to be a
Big boom for them NY now we’re starting to see Matt actually pick up some standing gold on the map equalizing these objectives making sure that they don’t fall too far abon honestly very similar to the previous game uh we actually see it going very even yeah
We’ll see if C9 can build themselves up a drake lead here that’s going to be that hex tech Drake and it will be secured there good Smite from blabber as n is going to have to flash fudge is going to flash immediately after him as
Well blast cone he wants to get over and he’ll find it beautifully solo killed by fudge locks down the cnra and the ja is only going to get worse from here for Mad really big win C9 get the dragon nisi gets caught on the opposite side of
The map and invest his flesh as well and that to me is the biggest part of that because ref fudge with leap strike and the inate safety it provides it’s actually really hard to uh consistently take down the Jacks um but yeah the moment that you know you’re in a long
Lane alone I think some of the members of Matt actually being spotted fudge knows he can go in you’re never getting away from that Jax yeah beautifully played by fudge even gets a ward there that is now very useful like it’s just success after success um chasy though going to try and answer
Here by pushing in this bottom Lane Side Lane pressure here for both of these teams is working out and blabber wanting to Clear Vision aoya wants to steal away this Bramble back the seis m shub’s going to pull it back that is going to be blabber locking that one down aoya
Actually takes a little bit of a journey as well he will be all right C9 just trying to keep themselves with some control of their jungle CU of course the mid lane it’s sort of pseudo safety in the fact that their Tower is very very low he P does come through
That is going to be all the CC and provided to make sure that the seismic shove is going to work out but hilang not going to dash through the Rocks absolutely fantastic just looking at him you don’t have enough damage yeah I’m fine uh no bother the main thing and I
Do think that this is another situation where you can claim that both teams have really good elements of scaling I think that Ezreal once he hits a certain point can take over team fights uh we have the Gwen who even though into the Jack particularly with the ja having a lead I
Don’t think you’re going to be super excited about still is a really team fight threat uh but for Mad the execution is a lot harder right because you don’t have a traditional front line you have a yoya sure is a Bruiser will be able to take a little bit of beating
But particularly with the itemization right Kraken Slayer we have the leandri as well Divine suer isn’t really going to provide you with the safety that nisi and Cari might be looking for so it all comes down to initial setup initial engage from aloya and hilang whereas for
C9 like Sven and a man promotes so much Frontline and counter engage that if they’re able to just keep blabber and Berserker safe I think it’s going to be hard for Matt now Matt’s vision control though has been really really good and I think that that is pivotal as a little
To stop the backs little cancel it’s going to work out we do have Baron spawning in 3 seconds time don’t think anyone’s going to head over there just yet as Chase still demanding some respect here from fudge will leap his way out of what could have been a
Precarious situation things as far as CSA a very very close between the two top laners um outside of that fudge with the extra kill so still feeling all right as the Jacks but not wanting to take any risks didn’t have full information not wanning to give away
Anything here as Ms just uh spending some time towards that top side but I want to go back to what you were talking about as far as setting the stakes for what’s going to happen later in this game cuz this looks like a very quintessential C9 composition of it’s
All right Berserker you do your thing you’ll get in the front and cause a rockus you kill everyone and that could just be what happens as we get later and later in this game mad’s going to have to really focus on eliminating the Z thing that can be difficult given uh the
Safety that feather storm provides I think you see some of the building as well blabber going for riy seconds obviously to Leah I think applies it very well but it’s also another extra angle of safety the slow combined with the normal peel that you can provide for
Yourself but also for Berserker uh with the e is something that C9 might have to rely on to now Matt’s vision control again I think goes really deep and I’m hoping that they can deny the dragon stacking because if Matt start picking up a couple of infernal Dres it really
Tilts uh I I think the ease of execution because if you just press your buttons on someone they will die right if you get enough AP if you get enough ad uh and even especially if you actually able to get an infernal proper look for Berserker here who ice C
Just going to stand it and he will say you don’t have enough much like we saw on the other side of the coin previously I wonder if C9 want to set up a situation where they’re like okay Mt you go for the dragon we don’t care it’s
Only a single Dragon for you and then we just rush bar hard run yeah to Baron uh which is up and they have you know leandri to Leia they have a Zia that’s sitting on two items quick blades and crack and Slayer both done so Baron definitely going to get shredded very
Very swiftly you will this mask also completed here for M&S so blabber is going to be doing a lot of work if M can get himself in there and of course tiia as the solo source of magic damage it’s not going to be a lot of magic resist
Built this game it it also works both ways because I think that mad actually are are pretty reliant on their magic damage for a lot of their burst and sustain damage right Cary obviously is going to be able to burst but MNS with aysl and Merk Treads I think can just
Keep stacking these resistance goes that’s a flash right on top of n gets a flash in response good reaction there from the mad mid L to get himself out of the way weav as well going to come through here it’s in trade for that one but the knock up does come through here
From svan who wants to make a fight out of this hasn’t actually altered just yet and is now looking to potentially go for a reset get the health back just take the trade they’ve got Flash and ghost out of Kazi now the summon a trade favorable for C9 but the positioning
Much better from that they have control of the river and they will be able to deny the dragon stacking not allowing C9 to pick up a s Point 23 minutes into the game getting it for themselves so in the short term a favorable trade for Mad
We’ll see if C9 is able to maybe go for an aggressive Baron play and then use the fact that NY and Cary don’t have flesh available I actually like this I think playing aggressively in this way is great that wardo not blocked by the pink I think or actually no it is fine
Is going to be able to see that there is a ward in this pit but I don’t know what they’re going to be able to do about this cuz it’s going down so quickly Berserker is even the one that gets the last hit on the baron because he does so
Much damage Chasey now looking for the needle work on the m& this is the matchup that he wanted in the first place but of course kante’s got the dash he’ll get himself out of there and fudge it’s just doing things in the bottom Lane oh dear mad they deny the dragon
Stacking but the baron stacking chronicler yeah you take that uh feel good not not going to be sad about that one C9 identified a mad after uh being able to pick up the dragon not in a position to actually contest that Baron pit Red Baron power play for C9 should
Be huge here fudge already picks up an inner they have the bu on every single person they didn’t have to give up anything besides blabber’s flash which you’re going to be very happy to pay we’ll see if they’re able to really break open the map because Mt I do think
Uh do have a decent amount of ranged wave play but these outers definitely all going to fall right the the mid outer that is still up 100% going to get taken down here by Berserker and M&S yeah Hill tank was looking for some sort of follow up angle nisy not really close
Enough doesn’t have Flash so could be dangerous absolutely Chasey here towards this bottom side just doing the Gwen things but so much harder it can be so snowball if you have one for one compositions pitted against one another as soon as one of these sideliners gets the advantage it puts on way more
Pressure see where the Mad can find themselves some team fights to get themselves back into this one of course Jax and Gwen both great team Fighters as well but with the fact that fudge has this Edge especially with the baron can really be a worry and like you were talking about
The Red Bull Baron power play sitting at 2.2k I think we’re just getting better and better as far as these uh scaling yeah Power plays are concerned uh now we have seen last game getting a baron no guarantee that you’re going to end up winning the game but
What I think has been a consistent Trend in this or a pattern rather in this game is that even though mad are are still making plays right they’re trading aggressively in the long term a lot of the plays still favor C9 if we look at the Cs leads right even with the early
Ganks and the pressure that OA tried to put on blabber completely fine absorbs it flashes is okay fudge yes he gets taken down by ooya with a really nice early flash uh flag and drag gank but then by the end of it C9 just go in hard
Sven goes to top twice and they’re completely fine scatter of the week does come through there’s a head up P though still he’s not scared as they have the seismic Shel yoya able to get himself out of the way keeps the cow alive there with the ultimate now fudge has found
The backline the quickness and the grand entrance having to be used by hilly get himself that out of Dodge but still Cina pushing they are not stopping and with this Baron this Tower is not looking long for the world and Spen still just fine the unbreakable will working out so
Beautifully and blabby just heads towards the Top Lane they are taking everything from mad and for mad not a lot of options remain at this point in time R C9 in full control very straightforward team fight composition and it’s again yes aoya gets out but he has to invest his
Flash he has to uh together with the rest of his team disengage and as a result C9 picks up a turret and now the gold lead 5K definitely a very very sizable one Sven has been very I think impactful on this aliser uh cuz even though blabber I think having a great
Game when it comes to the damage output and absorbing the pressure it’s been Zen who has been making so many of these aggressive plays the cancel there on oya’s flag and drag yeah is what sets up that play nicely done by Sven and it’s the power of this alist
That we you know we’re already talking about is very very strong but ran as well has had a lot of these moments already in this tournament and just throughout his uh lifetime in League of Legends hang might be able to find something we know he’s provided some
Magic in the past it’s a bit on his shoulders to try and make sure that mad can get the fights that they’re looking for as well but right now it is looking tough here and C9 looking like they should be up to get off to a one0 start
However the win rate for teams that pick up Baron is currently 0% so um oh from fudge theep teleport will get spotted yeah immediately however his position is still good as mad looking to try and get themselves out of the way there’s a flash headbutt to come through but hang he just gets
Himself out of the way it’s not really the Target that they want the needle work now being put forward but the stopwatch going to be utilized here by fudge beautifully to keep him alive there’s a lot of resources used by C9 we’ll see if this is an opportunity for
Matt if they can get to two dragons maybe try and punish the indecision there from C9 right the moment you know you’re spotted doesn’t Anor can out the wall is it going to be enough to keep him away it looks like it is yeah it is
Flag not going to do enough damage to contest the Smite as hang taking a bit of damage here as well and M just going to be able to press that W CC not something that he’s too worried about kazy is going to be pressing that e forward a dangerous move but not going
To be able to find any of his targets either so mad just have to watch as Soul Point goes over towards C9 and Chasey have to get back towards this mini wave has a lot of work to do as far as this one is concerned getting
Any sort of map pressure here for Madden we’re approaching even larger gold advantages here for C9 and if that infernal Soul comes through oh yeah it’s it’s looking pretty pretty dicey very much so and additionally for mad as mentioned I think that so much of it
Rests on actually being able to to be the one that is on the offensive and I think that that have been able to do that in specifically a you know 2v2 Skirmish free free send when it comes to the team fights feels like it’s C9 that’s pulling the trigger every single
Time it’s blabber getting a catch it’s Sven going in and even though the lasting Eng didn’t quite end up working out Dragon still goes over to C9 so I don’t think it going to be too set the cancel oh yeah it’s going to get canceled seismic shove going to come
Through and I guess you can just engage onto hang if he’s that far up and seeing 9 now with a 5v4 advantage and a baron that has just returned to the rift they’re going to look to grab their second and that might be the final nail
In the coffin for mad and he’s going to be another Engage The heut to push eloa away not going to be out of flag drag flash or anything to steal that one as M&S he’s also able to keep himself alive kazy going to push forward one more time
As El yoya looking for it but berser is just flashing after him the seismic shoves they’ve been amazing this game from blab that’s going to mean that aoya can’t do anything and chasy just wondering why his kill feeds just red as he’s dealing with an inner turret and C9
Looking to take a decisive Victory here slow and steady with I think Sven again having a wonderful performance here on the alist flabber absorbing the early pressure from ooya and Mt just not able to really generate any type of aggressive pressure and Tra that work out hang looking for an option here but
Blabber is just going to go Golden Hill say he’s going to go down as well the first Nexus turret has been taken North America in their first showing here in the Swiss stage against the E what is it again LC EMA yeah let’s go the
LC they’re going to be able to take them down it’s LCS that are ahead chronic and you know best of ones are are inherently volatile but after to the first two I got to say LCS not looking too bad not looking too bad at all I
Mean it was almost TL taking down T1 and now it is C9 giving hugs to nisi as well of course formally with C9 they are going to move to 1 Z you already said how incredibly important it is to find those advantages find those one wins in
These very volatile B ones in the Swiss stage C9 all ready being able to collect their first W here at Worlds I
