SofM has only one gear and it is forwards&hellip; with the pedal firmly to the floor. It&rsquo;s what makes him so exciting, so individually dominating, but also what can make him (and by extension, SN) so mercurial. There are few plays this man doesn&rsquo;t take, and of those he lands more than he misses. The problem lies with what happens when SofM does miss. Suning look like a completely different team if SofM is either a non-factor or otherwise contained.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>That&rsquo;s easier said than done, however, and while Karsa is one of the absolute best at tracking the enemy jungler, his style of looking to counter-gank and shadow rather than aggressively invade could well see SofM come out to a significant advantage. Of course, if Karsa can more reliably pull off what JDG and Kanavi did in game 1 of their quarter-finals versus Suning, then Suning may find themselves in desperate straits.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">You: Bin Gangplank play!<\/p>\n<p>Me, an Intellectual: Zoom has better wave management, has insane engage sense, can 1v4 and live, and exerts major pressure with his advantage<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Kelsey Moser (&#33707;&#20975;&#35199;) (@karonmoser) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/karonmoser\/status\/1317055825626759169?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 16, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The second glaring issue for Suning is their solo lanes&rsquo; bloodthirst.
