Week 2, some of the players are sick, do you remember? The first week was Valentines, and the week after, it seemed like everyone in the country was super gross ill. At one point there was a pause and OddOne had disappeared from his chair. Ugh, I can't imagine playing while sick. Lucky they get to pause, though. If I had an emergency sick during LoL, I'd just be AFK and my team would be so pissed.
Dignitas vs Team MRN
---d bans: Jarvan, Taric, Nidalee---MRN bans: Shen, Gragas, Xin Zhao---
d: Singed, Lee Sin, Kyale, Draven, Alistar
MRN: Renekton, Vi, Anivia, Kog'Maw, Lulu
Not much to see here, dignitas was eating their Wheaties this week. They super roll face.
Team SoloMid vs Vulcun Command
---TSM bans: Kayle, Elise, Shen---VC bans: Leblanc, Kha'Zix, Malphite---
TSM: Renekton, Xin Zhao, Orianna, Miss Fortune, Leona
VC: Rumble, Jarvan, Gragas, Graves, Taric
Vulcun seems to know what TSM are about to do with the lane switch, but they just don't cope well.
Team Complexity vs Curse
---coL bans: Nidalee, Xin Zhao, Jarvan---Crs bans: Rumble, Shen, Kayle---
coL: Renekton, Vi, Lux, Kog'Maw, Soraka
Crs: Elise, Hecarim, Ryze, Miss Fortune, Taric
Strange bans and strange picks! Unfortunately, despite some fun with Soraka's Wish, Crs eventually becomes too much for coL.
Team Dignitas vs Team SoloMid
---d bans: Jarvan, Miss Fortune, Taric---TSM bans: Kayle, Gragas, Alistar---
d: Singed, Xin Zhao, Diana, Draven, Zyra
TSM: Renekton, Maokai, Orianna, Ezreal, Leona
Banning Kayle, Gragas, and Alistar? It's scarra, TSM, not Shushei. Also, why didn't you take Leblanc! She was not banned for once! TSM paid for it, too, so there. Dignitas played a very tight team game by taking advantage of what they knew about TSM and their comfort patterns.
Curse vs Vulcun Command
---Crs bans: Shen, Rumble, Elise---VC bans: Akali, Xin Zhao, Kayle---
Crs: Katarina, Jarvan, Ryze, Miss Fortune, Taric
VC: Nidalee, Hecarim, Lulu, Vayne, Sona
Curse must've laughed when VC picked Lulu mid. This is no pub game, friends. Curse won in 30 minutes and the score at that point was 7-4. Zzzz.
Team Dignitas vs GoodGame University
---d bans: Twisted Fate, Twitch, Nidalee---GGU bans: Kayle, Xin Zhao, Draven---
d: Singed, Vi, Diana, Ezreal, Alistar
GGU: Rumble, Elise, Lux, Cait, Nunu
Zzzz again, dignitas roll.
Team SoloMid vs Team MRN
---TSM bans: Kayle, Renekton, Jarvan---MRN bans: Xin Zhao, Vi, Leblanc---
TSM: Malphite, Maokai, Orianna, Tristana, Taric
MRN: Olaf, Shen, Anivia, Ezreal, Lulu
MRN took all the favorite champs from last week, and still got rolled under. In an interview after the game, TSM was talking about how they carefully make plans for every match, map out their strategy minute by minute. The commentator asked what the strategy was for this particular game against MRN, and he basically said, "oh, we figured we wouldn't need a strategy to beat them." Ouch.
GoodGame University vs Vulcun Command
---GGU bans: Jayce, Shen, Xin Zhao---VC: Kayle, Twitch, Katarina---
GGU: Kha'Zix, Trundle, Nidalee, Ezreal, Lulu
VC: Renekton, Jarvan, Karthus, Miss Fortune, Taric
This is it, basement teams facing off against one another, one gets their first win, the other continues to be the basement. GGU brings a poke comp and wins it, but the fights are good, and the game is closer than most others this week.
Standings:
Crs 5-0 Dig 4-2
TSM 4-2 CLG 2-1
GGU 1-3 coL 0-1
MRN 0-2 VC 0-5
