same problem here mate, I think the biggest problem is that all the idiots on the site get a lot of attention because the even bigger idiots start to reply to stupid stuff, while people who have interesting opinions and try to start a genuine discussion about something are just ignored or wont be taken serious

This guy makes great content and I think he is very right in the way he explains that there is a big problem with these flash duelists and initiators (who are overall much much better).
I think a perfect fix for this would be to make initiators focus on setting up your team and not necessarily flash for your self (rightclick flash on kayo and the instant skye flash).
If I were riot I would:

• Remove or nerf the kayo right hand flash so much that you cant really play off of it yourself, rather relying on your team and you initiating the fight.
• Make skye have a minimum amount of air time the bird has to pass before you can pop the flash, or make the flash a lot slower.
• breach is already quite clunky to play with so I would not change him.

for the flashing duelists:

• make phoenix flash really easy to peek with, possibly even make phoenix immune to his own flashes
• just overall buffs (2 molly's? or longer range on the molly being thrown?)
• Yoru is fine
• rRyna is probably also fine

conclusion:
This way there is a distinct difference in the initiators and the flashing duelists. Initiators have more util but as a trade off are harder to play with that utility yourself. It would give these flashing duelists a better place in the meta I think.
Any thoughts?

If zeta win or any previous map they win the series no cap

my bad xD

I agree

Liquid had the easier bracket...

HyperX alloy fps pro - Diamond 1

Sinatra definitely has the right mindset I think, he knows what it is to win and knows what it takes to win. I do think he could spark a new fire within the team

Ja man lekker met chilisaus

same dude, i was watching Out of time from the weekend and I just cant unsee it now

They look quite similar in my opinion, could be a younger brother of him. Thoughts?

queueing with french idiots? nah thanks

Would be game of the year imo, I feel like gambit takes it tho. Purely because fnatic feel like a team who work off antistrats and if their anti strats dont work they are not too impressive (haven against guild), while M3C just has the full package. Great flexibility and Antistrats.

Id love to see this one

Yeah but im not sure im tenz is consisted enough, sure breeze and bind he can frag out but a team relying on 1 man to do it all is not a team that I see going far into champs... Id like to see it tho as I like tenz and Id like to see certain EU teams get shit on by tenz (acend, liquid) but not sure if it will happen with this strategy

laugh away the pain.

rewatch the game, hazed's in game leading was much better than shahz

Yeah I meant that hazed was the better IGL this series, Hazed not having any impact in all three maps Im not sure about as the IGLs impact is in the decision making of the teams and I think that excluding bind (which was just the TenZ show) NRG had better decision making. And yeah I give m credit, but these guys are supposedly the #1 org are we supposed to give m credit for barely beating a NRG? I feel like they shouldve walked over these guys if they say they are anything close to champs title contenders

Still dont understand why not tho... Hasn't the accusation been handled? Surely sinatra wants to play and I feel like sen's fracture and split have been lacking big time and could use a player like sinatra. What's holding them back?

I feel like they go 6 man roster and use sinatra as a raze on split, bind and fracture no?

Dapr on his day can be quite good tho
My opinion:
jamppi = shahzam
nivera >zombs
Link = daipr
Scream < Tenz
Sick >> soulcas

Just cant forget the 0 kills from scream in a half against i think it was acend when they played them

edit I mean masters

just saw the match and my god, I like SEN but my life expectancy just lowered by 10 years. Every time they relied on Tenz to do some crazy stuff.
short summary:

• hazed > shahz
• nrg eco = goat
• sick astra = dog
• I actually think nrg can go quite far this tourney and maybe in a similar case to V1 get to champs.
• new name sentinels will be tenzinels soon to be announced

:) thnx man

There will be 2 groups? when will the schedule/groups be announced or when can I find it

Will the group stage be a stage where every team gets to play against every team or will it be like the other tournaments where people will drop to a lower bracket when they lose until we have 8 remaining teams left?
