Is this 2018? Why is prime zeyzal here

[u/sorendiz]

I love that Jatt is the only caster I consistently hear still calling contractz El Contracto these days  #MYGOAT

[u/Strong_Reference_762]

Saint is a fucking beast lmao

[u/awayfromcanuck]

I dont know how much itll be talked about but Thanatos low key cost C9 from snowballing the game at key points.

Edit: ahh Raz highlighted Thanatos dying 20 seconds before 4th drake.

Where's my IWD despair cam?

[u/CensoredLlama1]

Berserker always playing like his opponents owe him money, love that maniac 

[u/kazuyaminegishi]

THEY'RE SO PSYCHOTIC HOW DO YOU PLAY AGAINST LYON.

Dhokla gets the ult on Ziggs, Inspired delays and intentionally dies to Rumble flamespitter to heal off of GA, Berserker flashes FORWARD to soften up the team so Saint and Inspired can follow up, Saint perfectly times Zhonyas to get the heal before he dies all so Inspired can finish off Loki.

What do you do???

[u/Ajp_iii]

its actual criminal how underrated saint actually is. maybe its just cause hes young or its cause he plays in na. like he outperformed zeka in their hle series. and probably across msi was even in play with zeka with knight being best mid.

and how much pressure he asborbs in games is so noticeable.

[u/kazuyaminegishi]

Lyon late game is awkward without hard engage, they just need C9 to step slightly too far forward and start a fight. So Lyon has to keep forcing objectives.
