Berserker ashe ²	5-1-8	BOT	1-1-5	¹ aphelios Yeon
Zven milio ²	1-1-12	SUP	0-4-10	³ rakan CoreJJ

It was cool of TL to bring the spice though. Everyone's way too stuck on the meta in this game, and there's so much more room for activities.
- Close game, very back and forth, still showing TLs weakness in the mid to late game but they pulled out the W.
C9 wins draft. Ashe + Milio is good at all stages of the game. Double marksman + milio is great. Lissandra, Renekton is a fine front line against that team.
- Berserker showing he is the best ADC in NA with that Ashe performance. Reventon is fine for this team comp but I feel there may have been better picks on the board.

Doublelift kaisa ¹	2-6-1	BOT	11-1-5	³ xayah Tactical
Busio rakan ²	1-4-1	SUP	2-1-14	¹ rell Treatz

100 Thieves have a lead in draft, but Neeko is always a wildcard. Nocturne doesn't seem super effective outside of maybe the Neeko.

I don't like that 100 Thieves went so hard towards comfort, but I do love the Jax.
Gotta play Azir. Gotta build crown.
100T are really disappointing, I don't know if importing Quid was the right choice when we are being proved that there is native Mids who can perform.
- And who don't buy crown when they clearly need to carry.
Notice the draft order.

I didn't know how bad this pick was, but someone on 100T should have known.
