Wow those finals were a massive disappointment unless you're a big M5 fan. Both games were one sided and never in doubt. I think Dignitas' best fights in the games were when they only killed 2 of M5 for 5 deaths.

Game 1 was at least interesting for the Alistar/Urgot picks and how they played it though.

Alistar + Lee Sin is a fearsome early roam. Lee Sin can safeguard Alistar as he flash-headbutts to guarantee a knockback into a knock-up into a slow into a gap closer all in a 3v1 situation. yikes

I think game 1 was really interesting, having Urgot lane 1v2 with blue buff was something I have never seen before anywhere else.

The first half of the final game was very entertaining with the meta-breaking and constant ganks

(but why on earth would a team not ward the red jungle side early against M5??)

I went from 1612 ELO to 1638 (success!) today and I'm seeing a pattern here:

Free Win The Blind Monk replay pack (ranked at 1600+ ELO)

He really ought to replace the blindfold with Kamina-style glasses.

Well the Korean OGN (OnGameNet, first and currently only gaming channel on Korean Cable) now has a biweekly tourney broadcast featuring 16 teams from all over the world. LoL is the most played non MMO in Korean and the top rankings will be dominated by Koreans within the next 5 years. smile

Also screw you Acti-Blizzard for suing all the sponsors away from Brood War and patching for the bronzers.

Back with the non-Korean scene, it's all change at TSM: TheRainMan out, Dyrus in. Thoughts?

The Rain Man was under much pressure both from TSM fans and from his teammates, which is probably why he decided to leave. (if you noticed, pretty much everyone blamed The Rain Man for losses in tournaments)

Reginald isn't doing that great of a job in mid lane nowadays, but his attitude towards his teammates (TRM and Xpecial, the latter to a lesser extent) is just bad. TheOddOne camps mid lane all the time, and with Reginald making so many bad plays it downplays his skill as well.

I'm not so happy about the line up changing; even though I think TRM is, as a person, a wee bit of an idiot that laughs like Lux does (which, admittedly, entertains me), I think he has quite a bit of talent in playing this game. Plus, we probably won't see Teemo in high level tournaments no more; no one else than The Rain Man plays him.

Of course, it appears to make both TRM and Dyrus happy (TRM just wants to solo queue, Dyrus always wanted to be in a more serious team than EG, members of which put real life over the game), and Dyrus is a great player as well.

I just hope Reginald doesn't give him as much crap or TSM will keep on failing.

If anyone is interested, here is TSM's video blog concerning the issue:

I just think their training schedule is crazy. Spending 16 hours a day on League of Legends is counterproductive.
