No. This has been their team plan.
Every.
Single.
Time.
I am a Huuuuuuuuuuuuge C9 fan. They are the reason I even WATCH E-sports. I love watching LoL. Even though Riot is a blood sucking vampire company that in recent months have becoming money grubbing corporate sell outs. They have made a good game to watch. Even though they are trying to milk people instead of give them a good product, it's been so much fun to watch, and they hire such great shout-casters. C9 got me interested, C9 got me excited. C9 unlocked this fun past time.
But when you see a pattern, a pattern you hate to watch, you get SICK OF IT. It's like an uncle drinking himself to liver damage, and hitting his wife, and then passing out throwing up on himself. You know what's gonna happen before he opens the bottle. You just wish you'd be wrong.
There go to play used to be Gailo + Jarvan combo. THEY RAN IT AND KICKED SO MUCH ASS. So when you see them give WE EVERY single tool they need. You have to think they are either being paid to throw, stopped thinking critically, or perhaps they were drugged by the Chinese team.
