I watched a lot of Azure Cats and researched what I could. A lot of people hyped them up, then there was this backlash that they were awful. The truth is that AC is an OK team that beats teams they can go even in lane against, but has 3 lanes that do get beaten by the top players and a jungler whos just not good enough to carry all their lanes. One of the reasons they run so much Homeguard Rammus and similar super mobile ganking/pressure junglers is because they frequently lose multiple lanes and need whatever pressure they can get. I think they play pretty well mid/late game and when grouped, but are often just too far behind for it to matter.

Looks like we'll have the pleasure to see their team synergy erode through the 10 weeks of the LCS summer season... | ||

I thought he'd need more damage before considering it. Pretty much standard now: Muramana gives you all the AD you need, LW gives you the ArPen to wreck anyone your QE hits. | ||

Their games were just disappointing. Dig should've crushed Team Summon the way CLG is crushing AC. | ||
