so, yea...i'm really glad that my first blog post, you know, the one where i said how MYM looked like a team that didn't want to be in LCS and they were definitely going to be dropped at splits end, made me look stupid. So MYM crushed Gambit yesterday...every facet of their game, that, in previous weeks, had completely sucked, looked totally amazing. they team fought, they pressed objectives, they didn't make silly dives, they were aggressive when they needed and backed off when the situation dictated. and their new support, noxiak, made MrRalleZ look like a completely different person. i didn't even realize he was their new support, but then again, i didn't really pay much attention to MYM and their activities because i considered them dead in the water. don't get me wrong, 4-11 is nothing to brag about, but they're now tied for last, and a game out of 8th place. this push may be too little too late, but we'll have to see. things in eu are getting interesting.
along with being wrong about MYM (thus far...), yesterday we saw elements actually show up to play. albeit, H2K let them play how they wanted to play, which is slow and plodding. Rekkles looked like the Rekkles of old (much to the surprise of fantasy LCS players.) and Froggen got to play his famed Karthus, and it payed dividends. in the end, the tanky front line of elements proved to be too much for H2K and they won in convincing fashion. proving once again, that when i say a team looks dead, i will be proven wrong. the real question is, can they keep it up?
the rest of the week was pretty predictable as far as i had it. fnatic obliterated roccat, UoL dumpstered the Copenhagen Wolves and SK eked out a win over Giants. today's games should prove interesting, while MYM is facing off against H2K, who looks to rebound, EL faces a scorned Gambit team who is in the middle of the pack at 8-7. Fnatic and UoL do battle as the Unicorns are looking to go into the playoffs with a strong finish. Giants play Roccat, both teams, coming off losses are looking to put some distance between themselves and MYM, in case a late run is made. and finally, SK plays CW as CW looks to turn their fortunes as the playoffs near.
after today's games, we'll have a much clearer picture (ideally...) of who's in and who's out, in terms of the eu playoffs. until then, remember to feed your carrys, and never facecheck a bush.
see you on the rift
