Nasus straight up loses to all but 2-3 tops in the game without heavy jungler interference or misplay. But if left alone he'll hit a point where nobody pushes him out of lane because of imba sustain, and kills/forces you back whenever he feels like creeps aren't worth Qing any more. | ||

This isn't really true. Having to play passive doesn't mean you lose the lane. There are a select few who can actually harass nasus enough where he can't just farm at his side of the lane. | ||

Last I checked, aAa STILL didnt magically win anything in the time before they had a semi-decent showing at IEM Hannover, but people wanted to call them the best team in the world. You are still a b tier team until you prove otherwise. At IEM, they took one step toward proving otherwise, and the other day they took yet another that probably put the over the top. But then again, the EU scene has a lot of teams that make it very hard to judge how good they actually are. They constantly beat up on each other so you think they are all decent, then everyone not named M5 go out to IEM and get curbstomped by CLG and Dignitas. oh come on dude. aaa was dominating every other european team with their new lineup before iem. thats why everyone called you out on calling aaa a b-tier team. | ||

They dominated them in scrims and go4lols. Which are meaningless. Qualifiers: where V8 has gotten through in America. Riveting. Sign me up for that, they are GUARANTEED to win the biggest tournament of the year! Who needs actual results in tournament play? I mean, how can any team who wins scrims and go4lols get crushed by CLG.US and Dignitas!?! | ||

Now they have actually pulled some results together and looked strong against good competition in tournament play, so you can call them A tier, something I would agree with. But before Hannover they hadnt, they were just a b tier team who had the potential to make the leap. But you can only make that leap by PROVING you deserve it, not by getting people to talk about you. Remember how the Philadelphia Eagles were supposed to win the Super Bowl this year because of all the star players they put together and how strong the team looked? Didnt quite happen that way. | ||

Quals have a history of getting a little wonky at times. As for weekly tourneys: the only teams that take them seriously them are A) shitty teams that want to practice and get stomped by big names every week, or B) new teams (like aAa) who have new lineups and need to iron out their teamwork. There is literally no other reason to submit yourself to 14 hours of pubstomping to hit one good team, at which point you are already exhausted and bored. Look: you arent going to be able to change my mind on this- aAa WAS NOT an A tier european team going into Hannover. They were too new and too untested on lan. They proved there that they could play with the big boys, and in the Hear To WIn they proved they could BEAT the big boys. I would call them A tier now. | ||

Random pubber who understands when you ping people and try to get into position to surprise people, or when you explain that your ult is too low level to bypass the good warding of the enemy support, hence you can only pry to pressure enemy botlane and ease yours' csing -> fun game with teamwork and stuff. Now I know why he didn't seem too fun the first time I tried him. | ||
