My Weekly NALCS Recap (Summer Split Week 2)

Darbalicious·Jun 13, 2016·2 votes·852 views

Hey guys. This is my first video in what is going to be a weekly thing for me. Check it out and let me know what you think. The editing is a little shoddy but I'll make sure to clean it up for next week's recap. In this one I decided to include my own power ranking.

I understand that most people aren't going to have time to watch all the games since they changed to a BO3 format and you also have the other major regions, so that's A LOT of pro league going on in one weekend. Now you have this every week to recap all the NALCS games. I can go into more detail about each series/game but that's all dependent on if I receive good feedback and a lot of interest in this. I hope you guys enjoy!

Some advice-

1.) Keep your hand away from your mouth the audio is fine just if you are going to have a picture in picture of yourself be cognisant of your actions seeing someone talking while their mouth is blocked by their hand is distracting.

2.) Give us some actual analysis statements like I really like Ray or these two guys are good top and mid lanes does give us anything of value they are opinions. I know your video would be too long to get this in-depth every game but look at this article for a good analysis of a game NRG vs Immortals Breakdown.

3.) Try and eliminate some filler words when your talking. There are a lot of "you knows" "ums" and some others that provide now value and make it hard to listen to. I know its hard but just something to work on in upcoming vids.

4.) I know you said you were going to update some graphics and clean video up but you Power Rankings List desperately need an upgrade. The logo's coming in at as you announce the teams is nice but the crap list next to them is an eye sore. Just a thought not sure how hard it is but maybe a good idea to do is reveal one at a time as well. Start with 10 and as you talk about them have them pop up on the list leaving 9-1 in the power rankings a cliff hanger while you roll through them.

Hope these help!

Some debate now-

I want to know what is weighted on your power rankings. I feel you miss some things like TL have a jungle suspended, APEX unable to beat anyone who has looked good, and C9 looking great against teams you have ahead of them. Power ranking I tend to agree with are here- Power Rankings

Thanks for the advice! I appreciate the feedback without being a jerk about it. I'll definitely work on those things for my upcoming videos.

My reason behind my rankings:

I did my rankings mostly based on rosters, individual talent, and taking the little amount of data that I was able to from them only playing 2 weeks so far.

I'll admit my Apex ranking was a little generous, they could probably be placed a few spots lower, however my reason behind that is I believe the 3 Koreans (Ray, ShrimP, and Keane) have incredible synergy and individual skill. With TL I honestly didn't see THAT much of an improvement when they went back to Dardoch which is shocking. That's one team where im looking forward to seeing how they do in these next couple weeks because they had somewhat of a difficult schedule the first two weeks. For C9, im not convinced. Yes, I will say Impact is an improvement over Balls but there's no way I can say Meteos and BunnyFuFuu/Smoothie is an improvement over Rush and Hai. Yeah, they beat CLG, but I just cannot put C9 with that roster over the back-to-back split champs and runner-up at MSI.
