The CLG team roster is filled with Challenger tier players, but they still don't manage to win in a battle at Summoners Rift. Their only win came in the last round, showing that maybe it is the time for them to wake up.
In five consecutive losses from the season beginning, there is no statistical parameter where they were better than the opponents. The only positive thing is that they got the first blood in 60% of games, and somehow managed to lose the advantage in the first place and then to lose a game.

Counter Logic Gaming vs. Cloud9 Betting Previews
It is clear that this should be a comfortable victory for Cloud9, so it won't be my tip for a game. Although they are the worst team in the league, their average game duration of 31+ minutes says that CLG won’t give up easily. I think it will be the case this time too. Cloud9 will have an advantage in the first 8-10 minutes for sure, but CLG will wait even for a slight chance and will try to get as many kills as it is possible to do.
The Pick: Over 23.5 kills (-122 @GGBet)
