Glad to see teams can win based solely on team comp.
WFX wins because they picked more OP champs. Nice. Glad to see skill isn't a factor at the highest level of play.

Your sentiment is justified overall but I really think c9 still should have pulled that out they threw two team fights in mid back to back
It's an overbearing team comp that WFX had, but C9 began to misplay their comp so much. You shouldn't be engaging with that type of comp, just pull the classic C9, grab objectives and out-rotate the enemy team. C9's comp was great for taking those objectives and rotating through the map, but engaging into teamfights only because you're slightly ahead is gonna lead to a thrown game.
They also made some mistakes in the pick and ban phase. Why ban that Gnar when it's not really that big of a power pick for WFX? Lissandra or Ahri would have been better. After that, if these power-picks you really need to deny are still open, Kassadin on Balls in the top lane followed up with Hai on Ahri in the mid lane (He's been playing a lot of Ahri in solo q and that's what happened with Lissandra right before he picked her up).
I can't stop laughing really.
Lemon said right before the game they weren't gonna give WFX power picks.

But yeah, overall both sides made a lot of mistakes, and I credit winterfox's win more to their team comp than their actual play.
