Meh, I think he performed at IPL5 just as well as Elementz would have, if not better. He got caught out but so does Ele, it's not like he played bad. Elementz has improved recently but he's been playing for a long time...makes me wonder if he's hit his skill cap for the amount of time he's willing to put into the game.

Hmmm Rhux had some nerves but he seemed ok given that his first lan event was IPL5. I'd think it's easier to work on those nerve issues especially with smaller tourneys coming. Maybe they thought Rhux just didn't have the personality to handle it though. some ppl just can't play in front of spotlights I guess?

I applaud fostering talent, I just wonder how effective it will be given how under developed LoL is, analytics-wise. The closest we have to things like the Liquipedia Strategy section or the TLFE is what we've done here in our TL articles. Unless I guess coL is ok with their LoL team doing nothing but Double AP-Skarner, low economy and Triple Teleport Promote. That would be kinda cool actually lol.
I really feel that laning mechanics, teamfighting, and short term strategy (deciding and planning ganks, deciding when to baron/dragon, those kinds of decisions for example) have a much bigger effect on improving a team than more nuanced overall game tactics like what you mentioned. I think those can definitely be trained really well and in fact much better in arranged 5s as opposed to solo queue.

I like Elementz being back on the team I think he and Cop did okay in lane compared to what happened in IPL5 with RhuxCop combo

Crumbzz on Sejuani! He was streaming it today and felt that it was good; however he lamented the fact that he had AP Teemo as his mid. Now he gets to have Scarra on Ryze, so he should have some follow up after his initiation.

It's just what Liquid said in his vid. Personally I wasn't impressed with Rhux. He didn't do bad, but he didn't have any shining moments at all, he felt hesitant in trying to make plays. But, it pretty much confirmed my original assessment of Rhux, he wouldn't really change how good Curse.na is. I prefer elementz, he's more willing to try and make plays, even though it sometimes backfires.
Triumphant ryze looks anorexic >.<

Did they really get shut down that hard in lane? I thought Rhux did fine for his first LAN. But we shall see. Hell, if Rhux's top lane is solid maybe Dig will officially pick him up.

HAHAHAHAAHAHAHA 6 item Scarra at lvl1. Rofl.

Sej feels extremely strong in this patch, it's been hard for me to confirm because so much is strong. But it feels like all she needs is the golem spirit stone and ninja tabi and a dorans shield to wreck everyone.

yeah, Cop Elementz Saint is every bit as bad as hotshot chauster dlift attitude wise. not sure if serious.
100%. I can't stand cop's screaming anymore than I do chauster's. Ditto with Saint and hotshot. I don't actually mind dlift and elementz so much, but it's not like either guy promotes a friendly atmosphere.
it's probably why I stick to Scarra/Crumbz streams as far as NA players go (and the occasional Doublelift stream just cuz he's so gud).

I don't understand why qtpie wouldn't just try to kill blitz there.
Also, that Doran start, lol.

This is the weirdest line-up of champs on the score board. At least at the TSM Weekly the farm order priority organization makes sense. Why is ADC and Support at the top and mid at the bottom. I don't even understand lol.

qtpie way too greeedy.
Edit: and again, just waiting in the creep wave for Blitz to run to him...
AND again. Wtf is qtpie doing?

BotRK coming for Trist, with cutlass first build?
