They be cooking some weird ahh comps. Still could win with them though
nah this makes sense
the idea of Clove > Brim is that clove gets reusable smokes while being much more agressive
they get infinite smokes as clove can smoke while dead, and so they can throw smokes more willnilly
yea, but omen can't smoke while dead
running clove allows you to play more aggressively, while still able to play that slow style FNC likes
but omen flash makes it easier to take b and cloves kit is kinda meh in pro play
meddle + raze nade combo is very strong
heal + ult lets clove go first and basically kinda be a secondary duelist
I think there's enough value to justify going clove
i was thinking they'd use their haven comp on ascent just to try it out so yeah i think they're saving things, esp with anderzzz being added
Debatable.
Definitely trying some more stuff however with how fnatic did the map veto suggests they are trying to win in 3-4 maps.
I think the opposite. I think they banned icebox and sunset because they don’t want to give away anymore information as outside of those 2 maps as well as haven and lotus they’ve only played 2 times on different maps that being at the start of the split the 1st 2 maps of split 2 actually. So I think they want to play abyss while hiding their true ascent although I think their bind is their actual bind. So either they got try out their new bind comp or both their new bind comp and abyss
Interesting insight from elma in the post match.
Yeah seemed like some of the veto was down to them wanting more footage on maps they hadnt played as much.
Although it was sorta predicted that abyss would be lasted picked because vitality also perma bans it.
FNC have been struggling on icebox recently and vitality (although fnc had beaten them) have looked good on sunset.
Nope they get the best chance of having an ‘easy’ group but this champions I don’t think a single group will be easy there are good teams in all spots from seed 1 to seed 4 so it just lets you avoid the 1st seeds of the other regions in groups
Oh shit then yeah seeding has very little value. Facing PRX as a first seed is probably not what I would consider to be easy at all lol.
