Fuck, Dyrus had 27k viewers when I turned in. People are (understandably) REALLY interested in seeing him play with TSM. He did a decent job top though, taken all the Shyvana ganks into account.
currently rooting for myself.

Sure, you may miss some extra CS under the tower, but maybe if u know that u will be a little worse in last hitting but way stronger later, u will change your playstyle accordingly? Also it makes a lot of sense with janna, since she can just give you +AD..


Did you mean APen, or is sypher building some crazy magic damage on-hit build?

Xerath has three problems:
  • Many players find him boring (combination of playstyle and aesthetics).
  • You can't afford to miss a single skill shot in a team fight, especially with his ult.
  • His niche is impinged upon by Ziggs and AP Kog'maw.

These problems do not make him bad, but they make him unpopular.


Look I know TL loves Xerath, but that doesn't change the fact that since his release he has had some absolutely awful matchups vs some of the more common AP mids, and that will keep him out of (common) tourney play because you can't risk having your mid be a complete nonfactor due to matchup.


I wasn't saying that Xerath is sleeper OP, I was simply articulating why he's so unpopular while not being outright horrible. Champions with easy counter-picks still get played at the tournament level when composition allows, but people simply don't like playing Xerath and/or feel other champions do his job better.

25 apen is normal for urgot lol.


But he said sypher was using MPen, hence my confusion.

That's a pretty big issue as well. Outside of solo q and troll tournament qualifiers, no one has seen Dyrus try really hard to show what he's currently good at.


I thought Dyrus was real strong with CDE at WCG. I could be wrong but I remember him being a monster in some of those games.


He played very well in the finals. But Dyrus himself even said that it was mostly saint and Reginald that carried WCG. He even said that he thought saint should be given MVP but that most of CDE's matches didn't get streamed at WCG, only the finals which is when he played really well.

haha my bad yes i meant apen
my point was that you trade some early last hit power (which if not under the turret is somewhat lazy) for being better later on - an idea that i liked, especially with janna who can provide you with that +ad
i tried running chaox's all AD but i felt like i was not doing enough damage..

TSM members don't have all champions yet. So they pick some underplayed champ and tell Sypher through pm what it really is. Then they remake with the right champs on the right people.

You know the nice thing about Dyrus' stream during these games is that you can't really hear the other people on voice chat so you're not inundated with "dude bro" all the time.

this is discussion that has happened in GD about 100 times but still

through some experimentation (aka playing a low lvl smurf) ive found 15 bonus ad enough to be able to last hit effectively even while under tower (the champ i used was ezreal due to free week). so if you can get that quickly, through either masteries or whatever, i would advise you to use armor pen after that.

Who owns xerath? I can think of LB, Ahri, and kassadin... thats not really any worse than many other mids, LB and Kass are the classic hardcounter mids..
