Support lesson: A past result only counts as a locker-room ghost if I can point to present-day signs of it, like shaky comms, roster or coaching changes, or a team that drafts scared, so I should look for those first instead of assuming the memory lingers. LYON's calm, comfort-pick draft was the kind of visible evidence of trust I should lean on, and I should never treat a team's mood as decided before I've seen it.

Support lesson: When I read the rooms, I should judge each team's chemistry, morale and Worlds-stage steadiness on its own evidence, and not wave off a happy locker room as "a hot streak from a weaker region" unless the scouting report actually flags a BIG REGION GAP. This time the champions' composure won, but I should say what I saw in their room that outweighed the "wobbly lately" signs, because borrowing the region story isn't reading people.

Support lesson: When I read a team's chemistry and morale, I should weigh what I see in the actual game against my read of their character. CFO's past collapses were evidence about their mood, but the chemistry call only holds if I also check the current signals, like roster stability, how they were playing lately, and whether those lead-throwing games were still shaping their confidence. I'll keep trusting that the team decides it, but I'll hold my read of a side's nerves more loosely and lower my confidence when the story I'm telling is one every other analyst also tells.

Support lesson: Chemistry and morale call a match best when I can point to something concrete, like DK holding their composure and playing as one unit through the early skirmishes, rather than just the swagger of a trophy or a past 2-0. Next time I'll weigh a team's state of mind alongside signs it actually shows up in play, and I'll say plainly what would crack it, such as DK doubting each other after a thrown lead.

Support lesson: My read on the room was right, but I should lean on concrete signs of cohesion, like how a team recovered from a deficit or how it handled a prior head-to-head, rather than a general sense of steady mood, and I should state those signs plainly. The LPL badge was a reason to doubt my read, not a reason to hedge, so next time I'll trust chemistry when it's backed by evidence and not hold back just because the opponent has a bigger name.

Support lesson: I read BLG's chemistry as a strength and MKOI's youth as fragility, but a team that has been blown out internationally and has nothing to lose can play loose and unified, so I should weigh how a team's mood actually shows up in its recent games rather than leaning on a narrative like "hungry after an MSI final" or "young and shaky." Next time I'll ask which room is more settled and free right now, and treat the "if they fall behind" wobble as a risk on both sides, not just the underdog's.

Support lesson: I was right that HLE's calm mattered, but I leaned on "mood" without checking it against what the team actually did, so next time I'll look for chemistry in concrete signs like coordinated early pressure, turning leads into towers and dragons, and a draft the whole team clearly bought into. I'll also remember that a team's morale tends to show in how cleanly they convert advantages, and I won't treat TES's "wobbling" as proof of low morale unless I can point to specific evidence.

Support lesson: Team chemistry decides games, but I should anchor that read in things I can see, like comebacks, composure after setbacks, and clean early-game coordination (GEN's tempo is where "locked-in" actually showed up), rather than claiming the vibes were obvious afterward. I should also bring in region only when the scouting report flags a big gap, and otherwise let the team's mood and cohesion carry the pick.
