Top lane Rammus seems not-terrible in this meta, tbh.

Like, early laning phase is negated by lane swaps, the tp+homeguard thing is super good on him, he can get sunfire to wave clear and just sit in lane while the enemy AD top can't do anything about it.

The one issue I have is that I don't really see how it's not just a worse malphite that comes into team fights super fast.

h2k is super interesting here - I think it shows how much more versatility h2k have in their play right now than any other squad b/c of how amazing and consistent all their players are individually.

I'm genuinely happy for Giants. I still think they're gonna end up 10th, but at least it's not like Coast 2015 (or was it 14?)

Stupid-ass inhibitor. (Well, that bush play was also stupid, but the inhib fight turned things.)

Still, Hauntzer is Best Poppy NA and I still think he's the 2nd best Top laner in NA, second to Huni. Darshan's a close 3rd, but Hauntzer is just doing so damn much to help TSM that even if it's the Bjergsen/Doublift show he's a silent 3rd carry. Balls absolutely carried C9 that game, but I just don't think he's back to his 2013 self.

After losing my first four weeks, I was sure I was heading for relegation. Now I have hope!

immortals clinch playoffs. their magic number is 3 for a bye (i.e. a combination of them winning or their nearest opponents losing).

NRG and TL are 1-4 (EDIT) over the past 5, while Echo Fox, C9 and CLG are 4-1. Hopefully it stays pretty close. Would like to see games matter at the end of the split.

There is no auto-relegation this year, but you have a much better chance of avoiding relegation if you finish 8th or 9th than if you finish 10th.

TL :(

Also, how bout that Echo Fox? I'm really glad that they're seeing success - the concept of having a super experienced vet on a team of really strong young talent is something that I broadly like in sports, and it worked really well with Fnatic last year.
