On the BT thing: A stacked BT increases the damage of your abilites way more than an IE would, making it for many players the midgame item of choice. That plus the added survivability of having sick life steal. And especially in midgame 800 gold don't fall in your lap, it's tough to farm then as AD =(
I personally dislike nationalism, I think history shows that the majority of the time, it's a stupid, if not awful, concept. TeamLiquid has a zero tolerance policy towards stupidity though.
You were warned by zatic, who is a German and an admin. I didn't catch the report or the post in time but I would've warned as well. Why? Because Soniv said so.

Then any mod can read the complaint. Maybe just heed the warning and think about why it irritated people, because it did. Instead of trying to explain why it was ok, because it was not.
Most mods have the courtesy to leave the TL LoL moderation to me because of context. In this case, I would've warned as well.

As for Crs picking up Voy, makes no sense to me. Well it does kinda from Voy's PoV. Crs is still a big shaker on the NA scene and I can only imagine they get better over time. But their roster is a train wreck. 3 Top laners? You already had Westrice Top, Salce trying to learn Top and now add in another Top laner?
I don't know the exact condition about subs, whether it's "only 1" or "at least 1". But assuming all player stay, Voy should be starting. Have West and Salce sub for Top and Mid, respectively.

Wow, at the start of a game i actually got a tip that i didn't know about: Draven can catch an enemy Dravens axes...

He even has special lines for it. They're fun too.

Fun game anyhow.

Yeah, I have to imagine WR is going to be off the team and Salce is going to get the bench spot. Kind of weird they come out with the announcement but don't talk about what's going on with the rest of the team. I like WR, but his play has been subpar as of late. Hopefully they don't just kick him out of the blue like CLG did with Voyboy, that would be a sad sort of coincidence.

WoDx trundle top also outplayed a Nidalee that made no glaring errors. It was impressive. The man is miles ahead of any other top laners NA imo

Actually saw him last night on Saint's stream playing Xin top lane one time. Forgot to post Smash sighting here though. :<

Yeah I get that feeling too, WoDx just gives me the insane vibes.

Wow, I'm such a huge Curse Fanboi and I missed out on this Voyboy pickup by CRS? O.o And it's like 4 tops! People forget about Pobelter! (even though he's not actually gunna be playing).
What is Crs's plan for having 3 (active) top laners?

So how do I and other people sign up for the PBE again?

Curse is my fucking favorite team. I am a huge fan of WR / Cop / Jacky. However, fuck this shit. Having THREE fucking top laners? Yes Salce and WR are very flexible and have played other roles. This is fucking stupid though. Voyboy isn't a good top laner. He's average. I have never seen him, ever since he's joined CLG, to have done anything "spectacular" . Honestly, depending on MLG Dallas. I'd either make WR the permanent top laner, or bench him for Salce permanently. Getting Voyboy is not helping their top lane issue.
So fucking stupid. sosoosososososososo fucking stupid.
Edit: I just woke up from a nap, and this made me cranky and sad. gg curse xx
It's 4 if you count Pobelter, right?

So much talent all going into soloq. Can't blame him though. Way less stress and I'm sure he makes good money streaming.
Edit: Polbelter hasn't been part of Curse since they moved into the gaming house. He plays AP Carry for Meat Playground. Edit 2: Skills of the new champion Zed http://na.leagueoflegends.com/news/zed-master-shadows-revealed Sounds a lot like a top lane kit...

Ugh. I just remembered something.
If in S3 % pen will apply before flat pen, Xerath will probably be awfully, awfully broken.
EDIT: no I think Zed will be more suitable for the current mid lane. He will be played sort of like Talon and Pantheon probably.
PBE is offline right now. Soon we will know.
