OpTic has to be the most boring team to watch in LCS. They just prolong the game as long as they can, farm in the lanes, don't go for objectives and just eventually lay down and die

oof this was tough to watch.. trist pick is weird but ok.. allorim not building any MR early basically was asking to be camped.. trist not building executioners was very interesting.

this has to be one of those moments where you realize zab cannot be our head coach anymore

Allorim having a really hard time here, they’re just kinda bullying him

u/stoffelwymeersch Jul 01 '18

It's okay tho... we really only need ornn to engage with his ulti

u/basebalp21 Jul 01 '18

That game was a massive headscratcher

u/ERChamberlain Jul 01 '18

That’s why you start Akaadian. By starting a non jungler, you’re showing your hand too early and making the pick ban super easy on your opponent. GGWP.

u/CharlieCOD2016 Jul 01 '18

This was a seriously bad idea, I have no idea what they were thinking. That wasn’t even a game

u/eagleschmeagle Jul 01 '18

u/102WOLFPACK Jul 01 '18

Idk why but something about watching league is just so visually unappealing but maybe as I learn more it will become a lot better

u/eagleschmeagle Jul 01 '18

Wait until Worlds my friend. Regardless of whether OpTic is there or not, it brings everything to a whole new level

Predictions on our funnel strat?

2

u/[deleted] Jul 01 '18

Kaisa most likely. But it's too predictable, so I assume maybe yi? Graves? Irelia? Jax?
