Anyone who follows @Lol_News_Now on Instagram knows that I've spent a few hours watching the Gravity V.S TiP games from the spring split. I watched Gravity go 0-2 against Team Impulse, and replayed valuable game changing opportunities to come to my prediction. Both teams have a huge appeal to me, they both seem to have a very lighthearted approach to League, and seem like they have fun with what they do, and truely don't care too much about the money.
I predict that Gravity will pull out ahead just barely in what will likely be a 3-2 win. Gravity started off Week one game one this split as the team everyone saw lose badly to Winterfox, but they did not give up. Gravity the very next day beat Cloud 9 and proved that one loss would not hold them back from a top tier position, after that weekend Gravity's trip has similar to a roller coaster with all of it's ups and downs
Patch 5.5 seemed to be Gravity's biggest turning point, at that point the meta switched from Assassins to tanks, and allowed their tank loving team comp to thrive. Gravity proceeded to go the first weekend after 5.5, beating Team Solo Mid and Dignitas. Team Impulse is on a hot streak as well, but they do not seem to fit quite as well as Gravity into this Tanky meta, in their most recent games they have still been playing high damage dealers who are quite squishy.
How Gravity can win: Hauntzer plays a tank, Keane plays a semi tank bruiser mid (Urgot?), SmiteSaintVicious plays a good tank jungle (And does not miss smite), BunnyFuFu plays a hard CC support (Preferably Thresh), and Cop plays whatever fits best in the situation. This team comp seems to be Gravity's bread and butter for winning games, and too much change could disrupt Gravity's chance at the Semi finals.
