I gave up first blood in a slightly close match (I could have escaped if I was a bit faster with a flash), and then I was forced to play really passive, where ken could still manage to kill me with his ult+harrassment. I couldn't really do anything because he could AA me and be out of range of my Q. I started with boots+3pots btw. I managed to win the lane and help win the game in the end because I got two ganks from our Naut (and warwick is really good with ganks  ), and then going to gank mid and stuff. I just wanted to know, what the hell do you have to do against kennen top? Last hitting was insanely difficult, trading was almost impossible, and without ganks, I would have completely lost top. What am I supposed to do?
you don't do anything except try to farm as best you can and call for ganks. There are a few champs that go top that ppl with practically melee-only kits simply cannot deal with (assuming the other guy plays even remotely closely to correctly). If you're lucky, and with some early jungle pressure, you can kinda force a farm-lane, but that's typically the extent of what you can do. Kennen is one of those kinds of champs.

That being said, I wonder why CLG, who don't value dragon as much, don't experiment more with AD+Support top. Don't know why people assume they don't care about dragon. Their theory is if the other team is stronger don't contest dragon. That is a big if and I have been seeing in scrims them going for dragon as soon as 6 mins in and then contesting it again when the other team went for it at 13 mins because they believed they could win the fight (and did). Where did I say they did not care for dragon? They don't value it as highly as other teams do, that's all I was saying. They do value it but if they're not in the proper position they're not going to be in a poor position just to contest dragon. A lost dragon fight + a lost dragon is just throwing away the game. A lost dragon while you're pushing 2 or so lanes + getting a tower isn't as huge of a loss, and actually makes the gold not that far off from one another.

ww gets rolled by kennen top. The kennen has to play pretty aggressively to get anything out of his advantage though and then... Well, you see what happened.

Oh god, Soniv now taking away Smash's elo! D:
Going to lose another TLer soon maybe from such a mortifying experience.

I'll still go to Harvard. Just a little bit later. I had to get some stuff sorted out.

Why do people keep mentioning that Harvard thingy? Link to post?

How can it be edited out. There were like 20 quotes on it to make sure it stayed.

Yes, I quit this game. Takes too much time writing something serious about my life during my time when I played games and after I stopped playing games, so I'll just summarize it. Basically, playing this game was a waste of time, and I'm glad I got out of playing games. Unless you try really hard to succeed at this game, give it 100%, and are willing to die to be successful and have the mentality to give it 100% every single day, it's pointless.
LoL is not fun. It's really stressful. I don' get why anybody would play this game for fun. Fun is going out with your friends and girls. Tits are fun. Socializing is fun. LoL is not fun. LoL is just a huge ball of QQers, ragers, and feeders 90% of the time. Being stressed is not fun. Only thing good about LoL is that it helps you deal with fags in real life and stress because you're under constant crappy situations with people online, and you learn to become chill and not let it bother you.
LoL is a waste of time. Spending even one hour every day playing LoL is stupid. Every week you could spend 7 hours learning golf. You get success 100%, it's actually a useful skill in life to have, and you spend time with good people. Playing LoL gets you stressed out, and does not get you good at anything. The reason a lot of people who play a lot of games, I will explain later.
LoL destroys your life. When you play a lot of games and don't talk to people, you become worse at socializing. When you become worse at socializing, you don't want to socialize because you kind of become this loser who sucks at socializing, so you go back to games. Then games become your pleasure because it occupies a lot of your time and thoughts and deceives you into thinking you are doing something with your life. It's like an addiction, and soon you can't stop. Your online reputation, your elo, and your online friends are worth more than tits or friends.
Some people might say LoL is fun, or online friends are better than real life friends, or stuff like that, or LoL is my hobby, I like putting my time into LoL. zzzzz, this is taking too long to write. I'll just say whatever, LoL played moderately for fun is cool if it's not an addiction. High 5.
Good things about games aka scII not LoL yet. If you're good, you get to live in a fucking baller house like EG and get paid. If you give up your life to play and give it 100%, you will get good, like at least top 10 good and live your dream of being a star and playing games for a living. This is legit gaming, you are accomplishing something in your life, and posting results. Casual LoL does none of these things.
Anyways, zzzz taking too long, in conclusion I like not playing games. If you don't play games for one day, then try to play, it gets really boring. Quitting games is good. Tits(or dicks, for you uni) and friends are more fun than games. Real life is less stressful, and takes less effort to get good at life, which is like socializing and studying. Take the lessons you learn from LoL, like learning how to try hard and be successful or just 2K elo successful, and use them in real life. You will get many boobies and friends. The end. I'm going to go to Harvard next year. Studying is easier than games so 100 every class. Socializing easier than trying to get #1 ladder, tits>games. The end. I only regret not giving it my 100% playing LoL before quitting. (Source)Follow up here

I'm pretty excited for Dig going to Korea. I know L0CUST has a lot of things he wants his team to practice but they haven't had the time. A gaming house will help them become the best team ever :D

Crumbzz leaving curse seems to be confirmed, not sure if Saintvicious leaving CLG for Curse is true though.

Got new respect for Numbers, he laid it down on the line the blunt truth about LoL, but can I ask you what made you get back into this game if you decided to quit during September?
