Don't count C9 out yet.

So a bunch of people are all like "is this the end for C9?" since they played really poorly the first 2 games. And while this was a worrying week as a C9 fan, I think many people are over exaggerating the danger. Let's be fair, both games were pretty close, and even though C9 made some huge mistakes, one of the biggest problems was champ select, which C9 have historically excelled at. I for one find it difficult to believe that the team that beat ALL and UOL completely lost all of their champ select skills in a couple weeks. And remember last season C9 struggled a lot and still almost made it to first place. So while this week was a worrying, it was nothing C9 haven't dealt with before and I think they have all the tools and experience they need to bounce back.

To continue on with this, I believe that c9 was seeing if things that had not previously worked might work now, the proof being that of the one game that c9 dropped at IEM was the exact same comp that c9 used against TSM, and to be honest c9 still put up one hell of a fight even though the used something they knew wouldn't work great. And for that Gravity game, well IDK what c9 was thinking with that it was a strange composition with meteos on a champion from my understanding he doesn't care for. (he sated "she (rek'sai) is only good up to level 9, then she becomes usless")

Obviously the whole NA LCS has been a bit shaken up. Starting starting 0-2 on a brand new patch doesn't really hurt you at all. There will be plenty of time to make up the very little ground they lost. I bet stvicious draws Vi bans for awhile from everybody though

Saintvicious should be drawing vi and j4 bans every game anyway. He's amazing on those 2 all-in junglers but that's about all watch his live stream his eve, Lee, yi, reksai and udyr jungles are awful.
