Lane
Match-ups – Alliance
Top -
Irelia
will get bullied by Ryze early and will be reduced to surviving and
farming. It will be rough for a while, but being lower than Ryze
will keep his kill potential almost non-existent during the low
levels, as well as providing Irelia with an easy way to set up a gank
through the long duration of her stun. Once Irelia reaches and 6 and
picks up a Sheen, she will have more control over the lane than Ryze.
Her all-in onto Ryze will be superior while Ryze is scaling up with
his tear/catalyst. Every opportunity after this point should be used
to push Ryze out of lane and potentially kill him. Jungle ganks from
Lee Sin will be extremely potent and should be a priority.
Mid -
Ahri vs
Orianna is a very even match-up. Both have good wave clear and
decent kill potential on each other. Ahri will have to rely on Charm
to get harassment off and then quickly back off after it wears off.
Ahri has a stronger burst and fast trade ability and needs to use it.
Once 6 hits, going all-in can be effective, but she must dodge
Orianna's Shockwave, which is harder than it seems it would be for
Ahri. If Ahri goes all-in and misses her charm, she will lose to
Orianna who has much higher sustained damage.
Bot -
Slightly
better match-up for Alliance. The lane will go even for the first
few levels, as Janna can stop most if not all of Zilean's damage
while Kog'maw cannot trade too hard until he gets a few levels. As
the lane continues though, it will shift in the favor of Alliance who
will have higher trade potential and range with Kog'maw. At six, and
once Kog'maw picks up Sheen, Alliance will have a very large
advantage over Tristana/Janna.
Jungle
-
Another
Lee Sin against Khazix. Farm and look for opportunities. The best
will be with Irelia against Ryze around the level 4/5 mark. Lee Sin
should feel confident in having the stronger/even lanes that means he
will come out ahead, even in a counter-gank.
Lane
Match-ups – Najin White Shield
Top -
Ryze
can bully Irelia, though it might not be so wise. With Irelia lower
than Ryze, it will put Ryze at risk to be ganked easily by Rengar.
Harassment should only be done when he knows that Rengar is on the
other side of the map and must be wary anytime his presence is not
accounted for. Be especially mindful of low hp ranged creeps and the
ability of Irelia to double gap close in those situations. If
possible, try to keep the wave slightly on NWS's side of the river,
giving more time to chase Irelia in a gank, since she has built in
tenacity to deal with Ryze CC, and because Ryze will need a short
escape route if he gets ganked.
Mid -
Against
Ahri, Orianna will have an even lane. Farm should go even as well as
wave clear speed and trades. The only thing Orianna needs to do is
dodge charms. As long as she can dodge charms she has stronger bully
potential and with her sustained damage can take down Ahri. However,
getting charmed will let Ahri put on a huge amount of burst and
possibly kill her.
Bot -
Tristana/Janna
will be ok in the first 2-3 levels, being able to trade evenly and
get farm, however as the lane progresses it will only get harder and
harder for NWS to do well in this lane. More burst and longer range
will allow Alliance to start to bully around level 3. Once level 6
comes into play, and the first back, NWS's duo will be in real
trouble. Kog'maw will be able to get free poke while also having the
stronger all-in with Zilean ultimate in his back pocket. Lane swap
would be advised.
Jungle
-
Khazix
will need to focus on farming, get past the stronger point of Lee
Sin. Look to mirror his movements and counter-gank. Potential gank
opportunity on top lane, but must make sure Lee Sin does not counter
it.
Team
Composition/Strategy – Alliance's
*Win
Condition – Get rolling early and use the mid-game power-spikes of
every member on their team to create a gold lead and map advantage.
Snowball this into a win.
Alliance
have drafted a team that has a very strong mid-game spike. Irelia,
Kog'maw, and Ahri will all get consistently stronger from level 1 on
up until the very late game. Once the lanes start to gain power,
Alliance can shift that into objective control and pressure,
especially with the Trinity Force spikes of Kog'maw and Irelia. The
mid-game power needs to be used to pressure all over the map, taking
vision control and denying NWS vision. Without vision, Ahri will
have prime opportunity to get picks in the jungle. Lee Sin will also
supplement this teams power, by being able to provide very strong
early game ganks.
Team
Composition/Strategy – Najin White Shield
*Win
Condition – Survive the early and mid-game and get to the late
game.
NWS
have once again drafted a very late game focused team. They will
have to survive the power-spike of Alliance and concede neutral
objectives at times so as not to let them get too far ahead. Early
wave kill potential from any of NWS's member will be useful in
slowing down the tower push progress of Alliance. NWS have their
work cut out for themselves, surviving lanes with disadvantages and
making it past the heavy mid-game power of Alliance. If they are
able to, they can defeat Alliance in the late game.
Game
Notes -
Look at
the super solo queue style start. Irelia is not even near Lee Sin in
case of an invade.
Irelia
gets level 2 first and is able to put great harass onto Ryze, trading
damage while Irelia has way more potions to sustain.
Instant
reaction flash from Ahri away from Khazix saves her from possibly
dieing, or at least from being forced out.
Lee Sin
is in place, looking for a gank onto Ryze, and is perfectly ready for
the counter-gank. Lee Sin holds onto his second part of his Q until
after Khazix flashes. Alliance gets First Blood.
Orianna
is really bullying Ahri.
Lee Sin
buys Mobility Boots with the FB money, and it gets him another gank
and kill in the bot lane.
The
Mobility Boots pay dividends as Lee Sin is able to lane gank Ryze in
the top lane, Irelia able to set it up with her dash and stun.
Kog'maw
gets a snipe at the tower, killing Tristana off guard.
The
early Lee Sin power has really been used amazingly, snowballing all
the lanes.
NWS try
a desperate Dragon, and Alliance collapse 5v4. A great kick and
steal from Lee Sin get the dragon and the team also gets a kill and
chase NWS back to base. ALL take mid and bottom turret. Completing
the destruction of NWS's outer ring.
*NOTE –
What is Kog'maw doing.... He left base without completing his
Trinity Force. The combine cost is 3 gold >.>'
Alliance
are very far ahead already. 6K gold at 14 minutes. Alliance will
start to siege turrets, and look for picks with Ahri and Lee Sin
during rotations.
Kog'maw
picks up a very early Negatron Cloak. I really like this as the
majority of NWS's damage is magic, even Tristana's burst, at this
point and will keep him safe while they already have a big gold lead.
Vision
control allows Ahri to find a pick onto Khazix in his own jungle.
Ahri
going Deathfire Grasp first is the right choice in this match, as
just shown. Alliance want to find picks and with the lead they have,
1 charm will lead to a kill.
Alliance
continue to rotate between top and mid, while Kog'maw stays on bot
lane alone, pushing. This means all the lanes are stronger than
their counterparts and Alliance will be able to maintain the control
over all 3 lanes, and just need to wait for a rotational opportunity.
As
Kog'maw/Zilean/Lee Sin take dragon, Ahri delays in middle, running
away with her ultimate, however she makes a sneaky play when hiding
in the side bush, picking out Janna and annihilating her.
Irelia
could have TP'ed in to the mid lane ward, and chased down NWS, but
they do not.
With
rotational play, Alliance bait NWS into a fight, and are able to get
2 kills for 0, and push NWS away for the free Baron.
Alliance
are able to clear the final T2 turret and start to push into the
base, however a great Orianna Shockwave pushes Alliance off and
forces them to shop.
Alliance
return to play the map and get a catch onto Ryze. Alliance do flub
here a bit, they have a 5v4 and could dive and force there way into
NWS's base. They are playing a bit too safe, but they are very very
ahead and NWS need another 10-15 minutes to start to fight back.
With a
new baron, Alliance start to siege NWS's base again, this time to
success, taking bot inhibitor and then making a great Lee Sin play in
mid to take the mid inhibitor and the game.
End
Game Notes -
GG
Shook on Lee Sin. Snowballed all 3 lanes. NWS do not have proper
wards to stop him, and the early Mobility Boots really get him into
the ganks.
Alliance
did take a bit of time to close out the game, but they did reach the
point of no return and won a Perfect Game.
What
Najin White Shield should have done -
After
the first 8 minutes? Not much. In champ select, they should not have
let Alliance get Lee Sin and Irelia, their best champions for those
roles. They also could have not played a full-scaling team and
picked up a more mid-game focused champion in 1 or 2 of the roles.
In the
game, NWS made some sloppy plays, ganking top predictably without
knowing where Lee Sin was, and then playing over confident against a
Lee Sin who got First Blood.
NWS
tried to take a dragon, which is somewhat the right play, they had to
do something, but it was more up to ALL to lose the fight at this
point than for NWS to win it, and NWS solidified their loss here.
