ROX and SKT

Why is it that Smeb focused on Elise the entire game? Could that be the reason why they lost? Smeb's Quinn is really good no doubt but did he do it wrong that game?

He didn't have a choice, it was simply smart positioning by Bengi, he knew he didnt have to be in the frontline 24/7, so he hung back to defend the flanks from that exact thing, a good flank from Smeb was basically the only thing that could have won ROX that game, Bengi made sure it didnt happen

Smeb dominated bengi, killing him so quickly. but why didn't smeb ignore bengi? What could have smeb done differently to win the game? It just seemed that smeb was after bengi all the time.

because, like i said before, HE HAD NO OTHER CHOICE. BENGI WAS BLOCKING HIM FROM DOING WHAT HE NEEDED TO DO TO WIN. The ONLY THING, Smeb could have done, was come in from a flank and kill the backline, he couldnt do that BECAUSE BENGI BLOCKED HIM EVERY TIME.

He did not kill elise fast enough then is what speculation remains?

..... I can't understand that sentence. How to put this simply. To win the game Smeb had to kill bengi first. He couldnt, and if he did, he took too long. Bengi played better than he did in that game

I know that, I was watching the last battle before skt 1 won the game, the one where smeb actually did kill bengi. He did kill him pretty fast no ?

It doesn't matter how fast he kills bengi. It matters that he isn't killing Bang. He kept spending his combo to kill bengi then bang just destroyed Smeb and went off to kill everyone else. It's not a misplay by Smeb, it's good positioning by bengi to deny flanks. And it worked, as you saw from Bang's two quadras.
