Ahora que ya ha bajado un poco el subidón que teníamos todos tras el partido de Cuartos de Final de Misfits contra SKT en los mundiales, y aprovechando que Alphari ha publicado un post haciendo reflexión sobre el año y Clickon ha sacado un articulo sobre Ignar, me gustaría plantearnos en Mediavida las razones del éxito de este equipo novel en la LCS, que gracias a una buena inversión y una buena manera de hacer las cosas, ha conseguido llegar a competir al nivel mas alto del competitivo en un solo año.
Dejo como introducción el post de Alphari y el articulo de Clickon, pero realmente me gustaria que MV debatiera:
- Cuales os parecen las razones para que MSF haya terminado donde ha terminado?
- Que os parece el camino del equipo durante el año, el cambio de jungler, las decisiones durante la temporada.
- Como veis el futuro? Haríais cambios?
- Que os han parecido sus rookies?
** Abrid los links de los quotes, he cortado los posts para que no sean tan largos, pero teneis toda la reflexion de Maxlore y sobre Ignar en sus respectivos links **
Since it's off season now, and I don't have much to share - since all I'm doing is playing soloq and relaxing - I thought I'd join in on the trend of giving my perspective on the past year, and what you can expect from me moving forwards. I liked how Perkz formatted his, so I'm probably going to do something similar.
Coming in to the Spring Split we had boot camped in Korea mainly to test junglers, deciding on Kakao as the best fit for the team, although also just to try and get some extra practice in before our first split in the LCS. While we were there, we also ended up changing mid laners: bringing in PowerOfEvil over Selfie. I wasn't expecting us to change mid laners during the off season, but during our time in Korea a few issues became more noticeable, leading to the change, which I'll admit I was apprehensive of at first. Considering PoE's prior season in Origen where they had nearly got relegated, by us nonetheless, and the community's constant bashing of him, I wasn't entirely confident of him being able to be a top mid laner in Europe - a doubt he completely erased from my mind as, credit to him, he played well all year and I think re-established himself as one of the best mid laners in Europe. Thinking of our roster at the start of Spring, I was feeling fairly confident; I thought highly of Kakao, him being a very experienced and mechanically sound jungler, and my faith in PoE was growing with every scrim.
