I don't like how people assumed c9 would play poorly. they have a very veteran squad in the form of sneaky lemon and balls. sneaky and lemon are both just so good in the bot lane together and always work around each other weaknesses in teamfights and in lane. balls has been the meg for the team(playing the champs needed for their comp, ex. rumble maokai) for as long as I can remember and while people say that his performance this year hasn't been as good he has played around his team. Hai is by far one of the top 3 shot callers in the LCS in general, if not number 1. Also his position in jungle I actually like better then when he was mid because he can focus more on all the lanes and shot call more efficiently. Finally we have incarnation who is such a good mid but he just had to adjust out of the solo que mindset and start to mesh with the team, which he has. All said and done c9 is not that weak team that finished 7th. They are a very good team and as incarnation said they believe it and have the potential to go very far in worlds.
it's one game. i don't think c9 will play poorly however, their chances of getting out of the group stage is still very slim. Sure this game was won convincingly by c9 but lets not forget that they're in a group with fnatic, ahq AND IG. this is certainly a tough group and if they can get out of this group they would be playing at an extremely high level. higher than their gauntlet run this past split.
Roll back and watch worlds from 2014, C9 has played at that level before. Sneaky/Lemon match-up just fine against Deft and SSB, was a close serries. C9 has the talent to match the best in the world, player for player. Can they find and stay at that level throughout worlds? that is yet to be seen.
