While there is a grain of truth, I doubt Loco actually thinks jungle is useless and just runs around failing ganks all game. TL: taking things too seriously since 2000 No dude, this is an interview with someone who doesn't understand League of Legends or their players. When a pro says that kind of shit about the game it's extremely damaging. It's not funny at all, nor did he come across as funny in any way. If anything he just seemed high. If a random fighting game or FPS guy interviews Jaedong and he says the game is ridiculously unbalanced and unfun because zerg just turtles and wins late game regardless, how do you think those guys will feel about SC2? EDIT: Actually, it's even worse for League players who cling to everything the pros say. | ||

EDIT: Actually, it's even worse for League players who cling to everything the pros say. I think you are in the minority about this interview. The majority of players that understand the game or at least know slightly of Loco know he was being sarcastic, trollish. Anyone who has ever watched a HB interview knows its on the fast track of becoming a big troll. That's why this interview was pure gold. Loco just about made HB uncomfortable lol. He made remarks of doing cocaine off of JD's penis. Also calling out Naniwa. This interview doesn't fuel a omg lol is so imba, skill less. If anyone was going to get upset on TL it would be about his statements that LoL is king. Relax and take the interview for what it is. | ||

Yes, an obviously light-hearted interview featuring hotbid asking locodoco silly questions is sure to damage LoL's competitive image........ | ||

Those were the days. Still remember the 3.0 patch day, taking my Main PvE Mage for a flying tour through Terokkar to try out some stuff, Ret Paladin shows up and kills me in ~3 seconds. On-topic, IEM Katowice qualifiers are one with some teams that most people do not really care about, but they are playing on the latest patch. http://www.twitch.tv/esltv_lol | ||

Only supports and support-style junglers would want to buy the item because only those roles can afford to be slot-inefficient enough to dedicate that slot to wards forever. It's inelegant, however, in terms of user interaction. Players don't mind so much that Viktor can't sell his Hex core because it's highly beneficial and they didn't choose to buy it in the first place. Sightstone isn't so lucky, and you can imagine the hordes of players reporting a "bug" when they can't sell back their Sightstone. | ||

And to those who have been hoping to be able to purchase RP or champs/skins as gifts for in-game friends during the holidays, your wait should be over soon... Neat. | ||
