Well, 3 philos 3 good doesn't make any sense, nor does 1 philo 1 good.

So.

Health pots would give you 10 hp/sec for 20 seconds for 35 gold/pot while 2 philostones give you 9 hp/sec + mana/sec + gold per 5. Not like you're going to use up all your item slots early game anyway. And in ~12 mins or so they pay themselves off. Any longer and they're making you money (sell price included.) Most likely the logic imo.

I don't consider "pays for themselves after 12 minutes" and "not going to use up all your item slots anyway" being an argument for philo stones because that gold/slots would otherwise go toward Hearts of Gold, which also pay for themselves in that time. Meanwhile they're also making you harder to kill.

You save some health potion gold, but is it worth the loss in survivability? If you die once, you've fed the opponent 8 health potions worth of gold, and I'm pretty sure there was at least one death that game where having 2 HoGs instead of 2 Philos would have made the difference between living and dying.

Didn't say it was good logic, but it's the only thing I could think of as to why you'd ever buy a philo stone over heart of gold (get regen instead of health + armor).

Why turn down a chance to get more practice working together?

We get points for future seedings, and for the real tourney with CLG TSM, etc.

CLG first round real good.

Would be cool if people got online to play in tourney games though. Or at least say you can't make it.

No one said you had to play the entire duration. Play 3-4, then bow out if you want. I just don't see how else you're gonna get scrims against other tryhard teams.

Should go ask scrims from other gud teams then, to save time. Didn't realize the competition was so meh in Go4LoL. Very huk at TL's mistakes in games then.

Ask Bob or Smgzy to get games vs Whale imoimo.
