It's just what people are used to it. It's also not uncommon to say acronyms like that, P O T M would be weird. | ||

Even when morph was strong in late 2010 people started picking am to counter him | ||

It's also not uncommon to say acronyms like that, P O T M would be weird. Yeah it's not like it even matters, still pretty interesting. Potm always makes me think potemkin though, I guess that's why it's a bit <_< Not like it's exactly a negative in most cases either, just interesting. And about the game itself! BM first blood dived... Hmm I really think that Complexity dug their own grave by giving Zenith Morph/Invoker, don't understand... maybe the AM is going to be able to overcome that but for some reason I'm quite doubtful. Yeah I guess I'm a bit silly, the T->M transition doesn't feel that natural though | ||
