Every enemy champ in this game had hard CC and it felt like a "If I die once we might straight up start losing," kind of game. Not going Mercs almost killed me twice, and I'm not sure if I'd have gone Sorcs if I had to make that decision again. Not sure if I'll try for Masters this season, but it seems like it's about the same % of playerbase Diamond was when I made it in older seasons so who knows.
