[LCS] NA/EU Metagame Preview Article: suicideMARE January 16th, 2015 00:52 GMT



This is a preview of the possible picks and bans we could see going into the LCS taken from recent top tier tournament games in both Europe and North America. As always thank you for coming to see my work and I hope you find it interesting!

at a glance Graves sticks out immediately as a hero that has rocketed in priority. Carrilord has arrived.

This info graph will have a few missing pieces because of the time gap but it still MOSTLY accurate which was the point of the preview. Its also a starting point for me to compare the in-season meta to, which is why I made it.

Graves will rise to the top imo, with Corki probably still 2nd

Don't think LCS teams are good enough with Liss to get that (near?) 100% PB than Korea has

Yeah there will be a difference between this and the LCS but the high up picks in this will still be value picks or strong picks in LCS most likely. I don't see Jarvan going anywhere.

Since her buff, i feel like she has more sustain and she wont easily die in the jungle as she did back in the old SR.The only concern i have for Sej is early jungle invades, plus shes not as bursty anymore.



But i believe. Ok.
