Eh, I'll play the same champ over and over for a couple dozen games (currently with Ezreal) or more. I have my "mains" that I probably won't change, but I'll pick up a champion and mess around for a few days before dropping them. Ez and Riven really fit my playstyle, so those are the ones I stick with. I can't get into a champ that has a weird playstyle to me. I can't stand mages, for instance.

So apparently MLG Providence will feature LoL again (if you read into Rinoa and Sundance's tweets)

Here's the tl;dr for v8:

Phantom pulled together a team and they qualified for IEM and were given a free spot in IPL. Teams banned out Phantom during qualifiers and team is like 'we really need to learn more champs.' According to Tree, rest of team starts playing solo queue a lot to learn new champs (at the last minute I guess) and Phantom doesn't 'cause he's too busy trying to get team publicity/sponsors.

v8 gets to IPL and they all play like shit. (Fuck what both sides say, I watched the games; they all played like ass.) Phantom says w/e we all played like shit and that he was too nervous at IPL. Rest of team blames loss entirely on Phantom and decide they're going to bench Phantom.

Phantom's basically "fuck that, I put this team together and got the sponsors, etc." According to Phantom, TakashiX (who they wanted to replace him with) hadn't played in any of the scrims or qualifier games up to that point. Both sides pretty much agree that the rest of the team had already locked in their decision to bench Phantom prior to actually talking to him (which is a pretty dick move). Tree states Phantom was too unwilling to learn from his mistakes or try to improve, which is why they wanted to replace him. Tree also basically said Phantom has a dick personality.

Now, the real dick move is that the team didn't bother manning up and actually clarifying to Phantom that they were sticking to this decision, so they're literally about to sit down and play when they finally tell him they're not using him.

Frankly, I think they're all jackoffs for the situation. If Phantom actually was a dick then I understand not wanting to be on a team with him. This, however, is something you would know long before going out and finding a sponsor and attending a live event. If you have personality issues, then you deal with it well before that time. Further, you don't act like little whiny bitches and refuse to talk to your teammate. "We couldn't find a good time to tell him." Man up.

most junglers with some inherent form of sustain (healing, shields, etc) scale better off of armor in the first place because of the way those stats work with mitigation; they don't scale off of additional HP but with defensive stats like armor.

just because you can manage without it doesn't mean that its better without it; i know that ww goes much lower on his first clear without armor seals than with (probably 30-40% hp on red as compared to 50%+ with)

You expect too much from kids(I don't even know their age, but they act like kids so ya). Takashi and Tree have been part of a ton of LoL drama involving little bitch behavior, and they always go public to the general forums with a PR like response to save face, making people think they're really nice dudes... and then they go do something else and repeat the cycle.

It's all a matter of perspective and opinions tbh. What you might think is right/wrong given your own personal circumstances might not be the same for another.

LoL pro community reminds me of the CS 1.6 cal main/im community lol. Drama filled bunch of babies. Over time they will grow up but since this is a new game and the pro's have never really been in the spotlight before, it just takes time. Right now they have all these kids all over them and they love the Efame (I guess you could say).

I tend to be on Phantom's side in this whole bit of drama. You don't build a team, get a sponsor, and go to a lan, only to change your roster after one day of playing, especially when you're doing it behind that guy's back.

Now, another bit I don't get. Supposedly only Phantom signed the contract with v8 (maybe the others did later, idk). So if Phantom is gone and he's the one with the contract, how the fk can v8 still have that sponsor? If I was in Phantom's position and capable of pulling the sponsorship, I 100% would.
