He has the right to afk through it as the first seed. Don't you get it? Why do they even bother with seeding, just roll the dice instead if that's the attitude

Honestly, if they have proof that the teams had a conversation about colluding they should have just disqualified both teams.

Edit: And if there is no proof they should have left well enough alone.

Riot doesn't even have to DQ them. Just warn them and it's fine, no one who isn't completly insane would throw a game with all the attention this shit is receiving now.

Like I said, if there is no proof then they should have done nothing. But if a team is planning something like that it should be a DQ, it's like that in any other sport, why not here?

sigh... need to rant a little...

Combination of bad play on my part and the teams i've been with tonight = 5 straight losses.

Rules I must begin enforcing upon myself...

1) never let 5th pick solo
2) ranged DPS in sidelane needs support or a smart support who doesn't contest CS

Seriously... you figure... if a team is down pretty badly... they would play more passively. but NOPE opposite day apparently was today so my team 4v5s the enemy's baron buff and proceeds to team fight everywhere except our own towers and base. I just don't understand. Ranked play is like... worse than pubs at times. I'm curious what the average age of people playing is.... maybe like 14... because they never learn! It's so intuitive, too. Hrm... I'm down by a lot, maybe I should let my towers help me win this next team fight.

I feel so upset/pissed off right now. The grind to higher elo is sooo annoying. My janna win % is like 81... maybe I should just stick to playing her.... Anyone around 1500 elo and wanna duo queue? Wanna hit 2k+ so badly to play against good people for once...

PM me in game or on TL.net

In a jungler runepage (Noc and Xin), what is better:

15%AS+10Arpen or 10%AS+15Arpen?

I mean, what to put in marks and what in quints.


Sacrificing early jungle speed (aka AS) for harder ganks after the 2nd run and more dmg through all mid-lategame (ArPen) is 100% worth it whenever you can afford it.

And yes, im a total oddone fanboy on this one. This includes full ArPen on junglers like Xin, Yi, Olaf, Trundle, Nocturne and the AS/Arpen mix on like Amumu, Rammus, Cho, Warwick (he NEEDS the speed) and Nunu.

Edit: IF you want to use AS and ArPen you want 12 ArPen to do true damage to the small golems and the rest in AS. Make sure to adjust this in case you run offensive mastery. You want to -somehow- have 12 ArPen at lvl 1, everything else is overkill in this scenario.

Kerp 2080 elo and gave me some tips:

"pick annie kill everything in 1 combo"

EDIT: His profile has 2k+ elo ranked games with Annie with records like 20-8 9-1 9-3 12-4 and his personal comment "annie just broken"

Another kerp pro strat "I just am insane so they think I have a plan and run when I actually don't have a plan at all"

=) Now go get 2k elo with this pro advice

Pretty sure everyone who plays in LiquidParty regularly has gotten advice from quite a few 2k players at some point...

Whats up with the HotShotGG q.q about another team getting an unfair advatage for dreamhack? qualifiers? anyone know?

Epik Gaming was suspected of wanting to throw their game against TSM. So the brackets got changed last minute as a result, which undermines CLG's right as #1 seed to play the worst team in the top 8.

Instead of:
CLG (#1 Seed) v WHALE (#8 Seed), TSM (#2 Seed) v Epik Gaming (#7 Seed)

It's now:
CLG (#1 Seed) v Epik Gaming (#7 Seed), TSM (#2 Seed) v WHALE (#8 Seed)

CLG is upset because of the sudden rule changes that undermine the integrity of the tournament, especially because Dreamhack Rules is that you can only have a 5 player team so CLG has to bench someone for the entire of Dreamhack from what I understand. Especially as this was a last minute change with no contact with Marcou and the E-Sports Team. Also doesn't stop a potential EG v TSM at Dreamhack itself. There's also no proof of EG wanting to throw in the first place.


Because Dyrus doesn't realize there are some things he probably shouldn't stream LOL... he just streams like all his private team business and other weird shit =/
It was said on his stream that they would get Westrice if they threw their first game (right?)


Actually yeah, I was watching the stream for that for that. I didn't make the connection in my head that they were talking about dreamhack. But there were other deals they were discussing and though I believe they decided to go with Westrice if my memory serves me right I don't think it meant they went with the throw-a-game plan. There were at least 2 more players than Westrice involved with the player trading and they wanted 2 more players to replace some crummy ones they had.

In any case Riot still handled this poorly. Giving TSM such an advantage just for the sake of avoiding the possibility of a thrown game is ridiculous, there are other options you can take.

Yeah, it was Hai L9 and some other guy they were kicking off and they were discussing whether to pick up Lapakaa (so they would have a strong jungler) or to take up an offer from TSM that they would get Westrice in exchange for EG throwing the first round game... I actually don't even know if they were talking about dreamhack tbh but I was cheering in my head for them to pick up Lapakaa the whole time and not be like pushovers or whatever and throw a game because that's just srsly stupid as fuck

The fact that they changed it means they care about the "integrity" of the tourney. These are still the top 8 teams regardless of how its handled. While I'm sure the first bracket would have been better, its still going to be harder for TSM to get through this because they aren't getting a supposed thrown game.

Honestly they should have let them play the game and watched it to see if it was in fact a thrown game. I'm not sure how they'd do this because I guess EG could just claim they were playing badly that one game, but the idea of throwing a game annoys me so much. =( I guess it's just cause I'm a lowly viewer and I don't understand the complicated politics of high elo and e-sports and competitive play :<
