Will other players try this pick during MSS?įinally, SwordArt and CoreJJ proved Nautilus to be a strong pick during MSS. Huni’s ability to join fights and limit visibility with the semi-global Paranoia helped TSM accelerate their matches. Huni came away with a 6.3 KDA on the champion, and TSM averaged a 28:38 game time across the two games. While he didn’t do much in the laning phase, TSM did win both matches they played Nocturne top.

Nocturne turned out to be a pocket pick for Huni in TSM’s series versus Evil Geniuses. Gnar, Nautilus and Nocturne grew in presence and win rate so far during Mid Season Showdown. Gnar’s teamfight strength outweighs any laning phase weakness he brings to the game. Ssumday, Impact and Alphari brought Grasp of the Undying and built Stridebreaker as their Mythic item.

The top teams seem to know exactly how to leverage Gnar’s strengths into winning games. Compare that to his 69 percent presence and 52 percent win rate during regular season. Gnar has really taken off as a 100 percent presence, 100 percent win rate champion in the Mid Season Showdown. The MSS overall has played out pretty close to expectations, but some champions, players, and teams have shifted statistically compared to their regular season showings.

Team Liquid and Cloud9 won Round 1 of the winner’s bracket, so they will square off next weekend, while TSM and 100 Thieves face each other. The Mid Season Showdown continues to roll along, as TSM knocked Evil Geniuses out of the loser’s bracket in a 3-1 series and 100 Thieves 3-0’d Dignitas.
