its a bunch of streamers who stream on AfreecaTV
so far Alienware TOP and Xenics Storm have moved onto the next phase
Pretty sure KT A is in the next phase and which is why they're not here

Amin has confirmed his departure and NiP are now doing their tryouts.

Bloodwater did retire tonight. Zuna will play support now and Nickwu is coming back into LCS just to jungle now.
It's ridiculous to type but it's gg for XDG seems like. They just killed amazing team by themselves.

I don't consider GGU => Coast transition that bad. Obv not even remotely close to Vulcun => XDG.

I was looking at the spring playoffs recently and was surprised that GGU picked up 2nd, but didn't check the split record to see them finishing 11-17. For some reason I thought they finished the split strong and did well in playoffs, only to falter since then.

Zion was carrying hard during that period. His Jayce was terror.

XDG this split has been so frustrating to watch. One guy being allowed to hold an entire team back because his brother is the manager.

They're all guilty, honestly. Kenma for making the call, and then the team for allowing it to stand. Having watched their streams, Bloodwater seemed like the only guy who would've stood up for Zuna getting removed, but now he's gone so I don't think anything will change and they'll probably be replaced by LMQ come summer.

So after support, what will be his next position ? Benny decide to " bench himself , and Zuna moving top ? or maybe Mancloud ?
|
Here's where XDGG wins like one game against a team like EG with their new lineup and everyone starts saying WOW XDGG MANAGEMENT SO GUD DONT BENCH ZUNA and then proceed to go 1-9.

I'm confused why they don't, if Zuna has to be on the team, just undo the swap and bring in Scuba Chris(their support sub) to play support instead of trying to fit a top laner into the jungle.
