I hope the Worlds teams practice Bard

I feel like bard is actually a really good pick, though not an auto-include like thresh. When he's been pulled out competitively he has been able to do some good things, and he's got a very unique kit that could shine in the hands of a pro.

But also, when he's been pulled out it usually feels like the teams weren't entirely comfortable with him. Maybe it's because they don't play him much, maybe he requires more practice than other champs to work into a team, idk.

Practice magical journey ganks/rotations, practice with cosmic binding to get a good feel for speed/width/tether/, and for love of god PRACTICE WITH HIS ULT. After watching the CLG game, there were a couple ults that were poorly aimed/timed. And EVERY time he comes out people shoot skillshots at tempered fate'd enemies early/late. This is something not only the support needs to practice, the WHOLE TEAM needs practice hitting targets hit by tempered fate. Going back to CLG game, there was a Morgana binding that SHOULD have caught Draven after bard ult, but it was miss-timed and he was able to lantern out.

I hope teams continue playing Bard, but I REALLY hope they practice hardcore if they plan on doing so since I've been dissapointed with their familiarity of the champion

His W is so useless. So, so super useless. I mean forreal, wtf.

Other than that, I agree.
