Man Puff dropped his balls on FPX in that last fight,.

If Leyan can be more consistent iG are strong as fck.

FPX takeaways: Doinb was pretty bad, I think all 3 games were mega hard carried by Tian and Crisp just making roams everywhere with Khan playing a central role on Ornn and Fiora.

Lwx and Doinb were really lacklustre.

iG: Ning is god awful, at least on Qiyana, 0 impact early, Leyan was way better in the teamfights and had some things going early game. Rookie was ??? on rumble but great on Ori, TheShy even in game 2 was a beast despite getting hard camped by FPX, and then the iG bot lane I feel was most impressive alongside TheShy

No bro. LWX only looks good when Tian and Doinb camped bot and got him ahead (as seen in Finals). We saw this in LPL last year. LWX needs resources to carry. FPX lacks the 2v2 Botlane strenght.

Now LWX is not a bad player. He is pretty good, but this is how his matches always goes when he does not receive many ganks.

LWX is not something special. Dude has Tian and Doinb sitting bot for an entire year and gets fed. There are quite a few adc's better than LWX. And Perkz said LWX is better than DL lol.

Look - those could be top 2 teams, there's no double round robin in lpl, so this could have big implications on the end of split

As an LPL viewer let me telly ou exactly why FPX domianted last year:

They left top side (gimgoon) for himself 98% of the times. And gave him champs that can defend well (gp, morde). So they left toplane alone and then Doinb and Tian perma camped bot side to get LWX ahead (since he gets murdered in 2v2's). If they see that is not possible then they switch lanes topside. Everything relies around LWX getting ahead.

Now Tian must gank Khan. Khan would have lost lane vs TheShy and Khan is a resource heavy player. Problem is LWX is also a resource heavy player.

Thus they dry out the other guy when they camp top like they did today. Which made them lose, since LWX is basically invisible without an advantage.
