Yes, it took them the entire media event to flip a coin. And yes, the coin toss was also decided by the dark energies of the head referee.
Also, it feels like WBG needed to win this coin toss, will they ban out Faker’s champion pool like some are mentioning?
Will Weibo permaban the J4 as they did vs Xun?
Will Weibo leave the neeko up? Or will T1 permaban it as they did vs Knight and Scout?
What about the Rumble question, can both top laners beat this champion? T1 threw an early gank through smart pathing by Oner to set the Rumble behind, how will Weibo answer?
The draft will be very interesting between these teams.
I think that Weibo will try to ban either Azir or Orianna on blue side and 1st pick the other to push Faker’s champion pool. He has only played Sylas, Azir and Orianna in this entire tournament but the value of Sylas is lower when Maokai and Alistar aren’t played. Also T1 will probably ban Neeko on red side just because it’s too strong atm so let’s see what Faker does against that.
Rumble should be permaban on red side by both teams and probably Weibo will ban Rell too instead of J4.
