Team Dignitas Facepalm
How stupid can a team be. Impulse takes Shen the first two games and Shen dominates both games. Dig doesn't ban him for the 3rd game and of course loses and gets swept. Someone needs fired.

I think letting Rush have Elise 3 times was there worse decision, he did nothing but get better each game with the pick.
You have a good point there.
Also hella late but this joke is completely relevant, this wouldn't be the first time a team shot themselves int the foot by given Impact a champ 3 straight times 
It honestly looked like DIG didn't even want to be playing.Not banning the Shen second game was stupid but not banning him the third was insane.
The first game was close. After that it seemed that they really started tilting.
they had just been outclassed, and it hadn´t been so much about shen, but more about their botlane and jungle. And if you really want to rage - rage about them picking exactly the same goddamn narrowing to fight azir in game 3 to totally lose the game like they did in game 1.
it´s like blaming Giants for not taking down H2K...that games had been 3rd vs 6th, it´s pretty much supposed to end 3-1 or 3-0.
Rage? ROFL!
I don't give a crap about either team. I was just pointing out what a stupid decision it was to not ban Shen for the 3rd game. That is why they were the lower seed, they make bad decisions.
though it´s just obvious that the problems hadnßt been pick&ban...there had been much deeper issues for Dignitas and they surly do need to work on a lot for next season. Maybe they can do it with their current coaching-rooster, maybe not. But I don´t think it had been a mistake to let Shen through...at least they knew what they would face that way. They would have needed to adjust their play ingame to take at least one game from TI, the pick&bans had been mostly winnable for them.
It's like the commentators said, when you have already played two counters into Shen and lost both times, you ban Shen for the 3rd game.
or at the very least if you are not banning him let them pick it and pick something that goes well into it, OR pick it for your own team.
Dude it is more complicated then banning Shen. Also the shen didn't dominate he did ok and helped the win.
When you are top and involved in 65% of the kills in the series, you dominated.
B-but the Mao'kai ban?
From looking at the mids i noticed Shiphtur has been playing tons of Ahri lately, probably figured he could just burn through the quarter finals on her vs TIP. But she was banned and went viktor vs azir.. wot, most cases i see azir outrange viktor, then the seizing potential and zone just let TIP take objectives left and right. GG i honestly thought TIP might lose since XWX was forced to leave the team, but i guess not
They had a good chance game 3 but Gangplank was mistaken for a champion that can split push
