The start of this summer split is surprising :

C9 : 0-2 Phoenix1 : 0-2 CLG : 2-0 (phew!)

What about you guys? How did your favorites teams perform on this first week?

2-0 imt I was surprised by the victory over tsm. Definitely shock c9 went 0-2 considered they didnt lose till week 6? last split

That being said, C9 didn't start ray until week 4 if I remember correctly, while they had 2 straight series with him this week.

As for what I'm liking, TL is sorta becoming the "anti-bandwagon" team I wanted echo fox to be at the start of the split. Already started 2 different mid-laners, technically have 4 more on the roster if they want to start them (Link/arcsecond/youngbin/piglet), if you include the fact that this split is literally meaningless (as getting relegated won't put you out of LCS contention next split) we could see some fun shenanigans.

Meh, Xmithie is far better for the rest of the team as a whole. Now instead of watching him carry/lose like 90% of their games for them, they can do it themselves.

Not really a fan of any team. Normally I just draw a team to watch at the start of a season not named TSM or C9 and if not relegated watch them a little closer. This season was Envy (and somewhat Echo Fox). I am currently not all too disappointed. About the same feeling as where I left off from Spring with them.

DIG: 2-0 vs. NV and FLY

the first one seemed like an autowin but NV looked a lot better than they ever did, vs FLY was just fun to watch

overall I'm pretty happy

C9 and Fly dropping all four games was upsetting, but NV picked up a win against P1, so weekend salvaged, I guess.

My two biggest takeaways from the weekend were that 1) NV still struggles to close out the game with a 15k gold lead, baron buff, and a multi-dragon elder all active simultaneously (their win against dig), and 2) TL's voice comms sound like the clown fiesta dumpster fire that their gameplay represents.

C9 needs to start Impact. Badly. They look so bad with Ray as a starter

Felt like contractz fell off some how when he played.

Not too worried about C9. The way they lost was nothing to laugh at

Im really getting sick of every game being a one sided blowout. Me personally for as long as ive been watching the LCS since 2012 can i remember games being so boring, and one sided--at least not in the quantity that it is today.

C9 : 0-2 FQ : 0-2 Whoever plays TSM : 1-1 (thank you IMT)

The Unicorns of Love went 1-0 and looked very good in EULCS. But it was just Vitality where the whole isn't living up to the sum of its parts.
Immortals went 2-0 in NALCS and looked very good. Beating #1 from last split and #3 from last split isn't too shabby.

But it's just week 1. We'll see.

After TSM beat C-9 handily there was talk of an undefeated TSM. HAHA that undefeated thing didn't even last past their next match.
