I think it partly has to do with the new jungle. Counter jungling is too powerful now, just like regi said, you can basically snowball a game, just by invading early.

IF ONLY RAINMAN PICKED ****ING YORICK.
YORICK + KARTHUS SYNERGY
YORICK > MORDE ULTS
RAINMAN YORICK > RAINMAN IRELIA

T.T

Anyways I don't like how all of the games are all one sided. Whoever snowballs wins...

I think the biggest change in play-style from teams after this tourney is going to be exactly that ^

we're going to start seeing a lot more counter-jungling from lanes. Securing buffs is going to be hella important for junglers now.

Well it is an unseen strat. M5 really haven't had the ability to stream which makes them somewhat unknowns. But now that should change and having more info will help in the future. M5 played well, I just feel tsm made some bad choices. Not banning shyve was one of them.

^ exactly. these teams that kinda "come out of nowhere" tend to have that advantage. TSM only knew what they saw in the tourney, but M5 could basically watch hours of TSM gameplay, no probs.

Not to take anything away from M5. Obviously they're doing something right if they only lost one game. I mean, let's be real here.

TSM got outpicked.

Rainman for some godforsaken reason decided to go Irelia vs Shyvana again, even though that was the exact matchup that lost them the first game.

Cass gets banned, Morde is hard for Karthus to deal with, and M5 first pick Sona which lets them zone out bot lane. Alistar is a terrible support if you are constantly stuck at your tower.

They need a strong early pick for jungle, top and mid and good coordination in order to be able to deal with the jungle invades.

Was it really that? Or did m5 intentionally not stream for that reason? >:)

Well all they've said is that their computers aren't good enough to stream. Its possible they're lying...but its also entirely possible its true too isn't it?

I heard three of them already stream, just nobody really noticed before. Apparantly they only speak Russian though.
