Did anyone else watch this? I found it to be an interesting game.

LowELO definitely had a huge advantage early game. They were up by 1 kill, had amazing map awareness, were taking out all of CLG's wards, getting 2 Dragons. But CLG just stomped them after the 25 minute mark. Why?

If you were looking at the last-hitting tab, you would see (as Phreak pointed out) CLG was wayyyyy ahead. Chauster, as Ashe, had over 170 minion kills by the time that the opposing mid carry had 100. The last-hitting in that game made such a huge difference that even with the massive advantage LowELO worked up in the early game, CLG managed to 5-0 ace them during the first major team fight 20 minutes in.

Discuss.

They have some nasty last hitting skills, Chauster on mid was missing only few minions per wave and Kassadin on up lane was wicked (mention kassa has melee range and was laning against TF).
I didn't see the end, i quit at 17 minutes or sth...
Rock Solid vs Solo Mid is so boring, they are chatting in queue for half hour... Phreak is getting mad :P

I found it humorous that in the semifinals, CLG still managed to beat DefyAllOdds even with Chauster disconnecting several times, giving away a free kill and a free tower.

CLG's tactic is to simply farm up first 20 minutes and avoid fights. They only gank when they are 99% sure they will get the kill and they play very very safe and make very little mistakes (reasoning behind not going for those early dragons, dragon has also lost effectiveness a little). When 20 minute mark comes they are all higher farmed then other team. Dan Dinh talked about this and why Chauster and Bigfatjiji are such good players is because their ability to carry and ability to farm.

Chauster specializes: AD Carry & Jungler
Bigfatjiji specializes: AD Carry & AP Carry
