C9 vs SSG

KilljoyX·Oct 10, 2016·3 votes·2,189 views

SSG was on fire for one day. C9 had an abysmal pick ban phase losing games to picking Ezreal and jensen dramatically under performing (Dying 4 times with flash up was really bad. )

I'm going to make a prediction most won't agree with. The BO5 will definitely be close. SSG showed up on fire and C9 was tilted and still made it. Sure C9 couldn't beat the most dominant team in the group stage but that's SKT which is a whole different beast than SSG and in the second game vs SKT you got a glimpse of what could happen. Unfortunately impact under performed and wasn't the impact we saw before that.

If SSG plays like they did vs TSM on day one, C9 will beat them. If they play like they did in week two, C9 will get crushed.

SSG is what C9 was last year. They legit went though the entire gauntlet and won. They defeated kt roster

So then they'll get stomped?

Who C9? Despite how much I favor them, what I saw yesterday from C9 and Fromm SSG on Saturday, I think SSG will win 3-0

You assume the same two teams show up. It seems unlikely to me that Jensen/meteos will be allowed to remain tilted that long.

I don't think Jensen was tilted. I do think meteos is tilted and he is the shot caller for C9. Don't get me wrong, even tilted, C9 had an early game that was able to be better than anyone in week2. That's huge!

I just think their late game shot calling is not good because meteos tends to tilt. If only he has Hais shot calling for late game

C9 has the least amount of time to prepare than any team going to Quarters. SSG is going to demolish C9. C9 even admitted in their interviews that they don't know how they got out of groups. They don't have faith in themselves, so I don't either. SSG is also riding pretty good since LCK qualifiers/regionals.

If C9 plays the way they did against SKT week 2 then they have a chance. Will they win? If they play like they should, big if, then they finish the day 3-2 win over SSG but if they play like week one C9 then i see a 3-1 SSG win. C9 can win, SSG should win it's as simple as that. C9 is the under dog.

I want Jensen to pick Leblanc or Zed into Crown and just drop him over and over. They need to ban Viktor and GG.

I know, it's a fool's hope!

Viktor just stalls games too much to the point that late game hits and hold advantage means very little.

Problem is, too many champions to ban. Aurelion, Sandra, and Viktor

C9 is pretty good as a team based on some games they've had in MSI and NA LCS, but right now SSG is basically destroying group D, so C9 does not have a good chance to win them. However, if they do not get tilted, they can have a pretty high chance of winning.

And yes, I'm a fan of C9 but for Worlds I just wanted some NA team to win for once, but they're the only ones left this year so I'll be rooting for them ^^ Here's a item 2010
