i fked up but i blame ruru too, pretty sure janook ghosted. A lot of things didn't feel right like me dying in her jungle the first time. Her wraiths had been up for a long time, she pushed lane so I assume she was back, but then she came to wraiths right as I was finishing them and then zoned me from going back. There was 0 chance she had a ward or that she just happened to have the right timing.

No, but some people tried to argue that you can not criticize a pro if you are not a pro yourself, or something similar. Which would then also apply to that analysis, too, since as far as i know, the writers are not pros, either. Thus, following the initial logic, they would not be able to properly interpret what pros do, making any analysis they do useless.

Conversely, if their analysis is good, it is possible for people who are not pros to understand what pros do to the necessary degree to criticize them. This does not mean that every criticism people on forums voice about pros are good, but it means that it is not fundamentally impossible to understand what they do, which was what some people argued. Thus, mentioning that analysis debunks that statement.

Rengar is seriously outrageous right now. Idk if this is just low elo but there was nothing I can do to stop rengar from just killing my lanes 100% of the time. The only Rengars that haven't succeeded are those that are probably on their way to lower elo. It is absolutely enraging. That and this new champion, Kazakhstan or whatever, looks like he will be the exact same thing. Maybe these sorts of characters are bad at high elo but my god are they good at low elo


I kept getting crushed by rengar even before the most recent buff went through. A bit part of that, though, was that I didn't bother looking up his skillset.

It's not just low elo, although he is usually one of the banned champions in EUW now.

Yeah, even before buff I got smashed by an AD rengar in lane, cuz I wasn't sure what he could do. I went 0-3 in lane as singed. But, I did notice that in mid, and late game I just completely out scaled him, and he wasn't able to do jack shit, despite being somewhat fed.

In that same regard, being a pro doesn't mean your analysis will be good either

Why did Riot release the schedule for S2 Finals without releasing where in the brackets the four regional byes are going to be. I'm curious how they decide which two teams face the #1 seeds from the groups and which two teams face the #2 seeds from the groups.

it seems a bit stupid to criticize moonbear specifically, which you seem to be daring someone to do, but i haven't seen anything that i consider a serious challenge to my viewpoint and i'll leave it at that. If you're not decent, you can call a pro's play bad and have a coinflip chance at being right, but any inference you make past that, especially about the character, style or quality of a player is a masturbatory waste of time. It's pathetic when I see people who are no better than i am talk about how terrible the favorite targets, regi oddone and hotshot are, because they make a bad play or don't know something or don't do every little thing like you'd like. It makes you guys look small, hop off your egos for a second and stop pretending you know a damn thing. Anyway that's my final word on the subject for now.

Speaking of bans... I read not long ago that Riot would start to ban out people who trollpicked in champion select to force others to dodge. I sometimes use this tactic, like when I get in my team "Xx5k4t3rG0H4NxX", "WORST TOP BR", surge/tp graves and ghost/heal yi, I just pick promote/cv soraka and wait until last second to dodge myself or switch my summoners to legit ones and carry on with the game. Does anyone know if they actually started banning people for that? If so, how do they get the reports? It is hard to believe that players will take the effort to screenshoot it and send it to Riot with a ticket...

Just out of curiosity, I wouldn't mind stopping to do that.


From what I understood, they took the players with an already large moderation history, and looked for which ones had a disproportionately large number of games where someone else dodged. If you do it a lot, you might be in trouble, but if it's an every-once-in-awhile thing, you're probably fine. Basically it's just collecting statistics instead of looked at e-mailed reports or whatever.


Oh, that's good to hear. May the promote/cv soraka terror continue then 8) (doesn't work most times anyways ;_;). Thanks for the intel!

On another topic, how awesome would it be if Phreak registered into TL.net just to post "gg easy"

Honestly though, I think it's justified at times. Using HSGG's Shyvana mishap as an example, there was no excuse for it. I get that he was somewhat new to jungling, but if you're in a tournament don't pick a champion you clearly don't know all the ins an outs of the abilities and then turn around to say "Hey I'm new!" when you screw up. Knowing that, till its max range, she will jump to whatever distance you set it at is basic.

Do I suck at this game? Yeah, but that doesn't make me incapable of realizing other peoples mistakes. HSGG shouldn't have headbutted baron wall with his ult, just like a quarterback in US football shouldn't throw a pass high over the middle. These are, objectively, bad decisions.
