"More bans, more strategy, more diversity. It all starts here at the NALCS"
...
Except for the fact that KR and EU already had a few matches with the system, so it actually started in KR.

Skilled Mid Laners

*Shows a Syndra ULT*
:thinking:

This season has just started and it's already crazy better than last year.

So many diverse picks because of the new pick and ban phase.

[CSDragon]

The clip of ADC was literally just Cait getting wrek'd by elise, and then Ashe not damaging or impeding Camille at all

[mikehunt]

it would've been funny id they had just skipped adc LUL

[turndownforwalt]

"New mechanics to master" *Hits Blast Cone*

[gonaldocr]

C9 mentioned as a potential powerhouse in each role. THIS GUN BE GUD

[itachii]

why didn't the NA LCS get a multi-part video series detailing changes and our team's?

[jerrbear]

long have we waited
now we've imported (koreans)

"the move away from lane dominant marksmen"
Read: The move away from marksmen

[RagetheMudkip]

I love that every member of C9 was included in each role. Makes me feel good about the split

[aeowinh]

LB, Camille and Rengar are the strongest picks of this patch, is perma ban pick in all competitive games

[irizo]

Everyone is paying attention to him mentioning all of TSM players but he also mentioned all of the c9 players. And when he mentioned Wild Turtle, he said he may be challenged. So C9 > TSM. You heard it here first at the 2017 NALCS Spring Split.

Dude, Dignitas made a ton of money from selling the CS:GO team, they get a really good lineup for LCS, i believe that with the structure that it could be given for this team, this could be a top 3 team that nobody expected.

[apocalipsenearby]

the lack of singed in the top mention actually hurt me ;-;

[sabrezero]

Basically ever since season 6 started ADC's became a utility for the team. Which makes them a secondary support hooray, thank you riot for making this "awesome" meta .. I wanna main ADC as a role now horaaay!

[mirutee]

so pretty much adc here for the good utility and support got the burst?

[dunderpojkarna]

C9 was mentioned in all roles, that means cloud9 is the best team! LET'S GO C9!

[wanggalileo]

LCK IMPORT LUL YOU MEAN 90% OF THE NA LCS?? XD

[thetattooedyoshi]

Problems I have with Brand, Zyra, & Malzahar Support: THEY'RE NOT SUPPORTS! THEY'RE MID LANERS! STAY IN MID LANE!
