So does anyone know why Doublelift left EG to join CRS, he's like benched all the time lol.
Well it's two things.
1. Crs is sponsored, EG isn't. So Doublelift probably gets some stuff for free that he otherwise wouldn't have.
2. EG's lineup is fairly solidified. Prior to Double leaving and EG picking up PGB:
Salce AP
Dan Jungle
Westrice AD
That left Dyrus and Double on top (solo) and bot (support) lanes. Dyrus is obviously the better bruiser and I'm going to assume that Dan would much rather have Dyrus top. However, Dyrus is a team player and ended up playing support a few times for EG. Either way, Double doesn't have much of a slot to fill in EG.
That being said, he still doesn't have a slot to fill on Crs either. So he's still "sub" status and this goes back to point 1.

17,000 viewers for a pretty small online tournament that was barely hyped and is only in the what, preliminary rounds?
Absolutely nuts.

Does anyone know who EG picked up? Cause I remember DD was talking bout how PGB started school and can't make tournaments anymore and thus had to be replaced.

The thing is however that PBG is going to go med school full time fairly soon so it's not even shure if EG will continue to exist as a team.

I don't think they have a replacement yet. Also they like never practice together so it's kind of questionable if EG will remain in it's current form.

Even more than that if you count the first-person streams from players and the like.
TL should totally try something out for Season 2 if possible.
Actually, thinking about tournaments, maybe I could try a 1v1 tournament on TL see if I could get prizes somewhere. Hm. I will think more about this option.
Also, I'm doing an AMA in my blog if you guys have anything to ask~

They used a player called Curtoky for the last chance qualifier. He was #1 on the 5s ladder at one point apparently. Plays cow, blitz, janna, etc.

Let me know if you want to start a TL tournament, I'll help you orga it. I assume Riot can sponsor the "prizes" huehuehue.
Edit: are you talking about 1v1 tournament for our subforum or a open one but with the TL name as organizers? and lol @ shameless plug~ <3 MoonBear

Riot is really good at giving out big RP prizes for tournaments. First place is usually 3250rp + Trophy Ryze + Champ Bundle. I'm sure Moonbear could use his connections to get a TL tourney running 8D

Only tl subforum imo. Make it hella more fun if you have to be a member/someone who is active to play in it. Hella more trash talk.
(And Id actually have a shot at making top 5)

CLG vs RS coming up on Dyrus, NESL, Jiji and Chauster streams.
TSM vs Goose(Atlanta's team) coming up on Regi stream.
Crs vs Rez(TreeEskimo's team) going on off stream.

Hoping for RS upset. RS is such a good team but they always fall 1 round early. This is their tourney I'm hoping 8D

Really enjoying watching Chauster's stream this afternoon and listening to clg vent/chausters thoughts while playing.

Scarra/Voyboy/Jatt really talented lineup. Scarra has been a sick AP player for like, ever, seems to get no mention when people talk players though.
