I'm aware of that.

I'm guessing they have a good Singed player on TSM. Rainman? But still, I would have rather dealt with Singed there than GP. GP is a good general purpose ban for any team and most teams had been banning him in this tourney.

Otherwise, he's been picked every game and is a real nuisance to deal with, since he scales so nicely (he's deadly in pretty much every portion of the game).

I'll admit, I love playing Gangplank and build him pretty much like Oddone did with Wriggles + Triforce first Jungle, and then straight into IE, Phantom dancer, Bloodthirster and Last Whisper. Good luck dealing with him then, especially if he got fed during jungle.



Watching TSM vs CLG now. GP was of course, banned.

This will be good

TSM has the better team I think. I expect them to win. Galio...is just...I don't like it. Hopefully CLG win though so there's a 3rd game.

Edit: Surprising.

3rd game
