[PJSalt] Anyone else really salty about the new Summoning Insight?

I like how Monte bashed CLG super hard for tiny mistakes (yes the mistakes were tiny and inconsequential since CLG never came close to losing at all in the entire series) whereas when Fnatic basically struggled against OG (and to be frank, Fnatic should have lost if Xpeke didn't keep getting caught out since Og had the superior lategame comp).

Oh and the Xmithie bashing was totally uncalled for. Monte is a good analyst in macro sense but he does not understand micro mechanics at all. Xmithie "missed" his ults a lot because he was going for max range gragas ults which are extremely hard to land. Its almost as if if you go for 50/50 plays that they're gonna work 50% of the time and fail 50% of the time, huh? Oh and completely disregard his 3rd game where he pretty much carried all of CLG with his Ekko.

Finally he even admits that CLG didn't have to show a lot during their finals. How then can you conclude that CLG would get easily beaten by Fnatic and Origen? I mean you didn't even get to see Zion's riven or GP or the other endless counterpicks that he has practiced which Dyrus himself even admits in his AMA.

It just feels like Monte is really on edge this episode for some reason. If i didn't know any better I'd say hes salty about CLG actually being able to succeed without him as the coach.

Of course I'm pretty biased (even though I think my points here are 100% sound, feel free to disagree and point out my errors) so maybe you guys can convince me otherwise.

Currently I feel that CLG are even with Fnatic and a BO5 between them would go to 5 games and can go either way. I think CLG can definitely beat both H2K and OG. I also think CLG will perform well against Korean/Chinese teams (keep in mind that during last year's bootcamp, Korean teams were literally scrimming CLG just to practice 2v2 because CLG's botlane was that good).

Anyways thats the end of my salty rant.
