They are the team with the most marketing value but i dont think we are gonna see lots of them like we did in season 2, because all lanes are lacking apart from Froggen. I think a lot of this is colored by their relatively lackluster performances after S2 Finals, but they really haven't had a lot of time to practice. Their members have been on vacation and they haven't been able to adhere to a regular practice schedule. I think once Season 3 starts and they get back into the swing of things they still have the talent to be one of the best teams in the EU realm. Also to echo Yango, Froggen needs to stop taking Yellowpete's farm or he needs to play less late-game ADCs to compensate. | ||

They literally got the last spot. Doesn't matter. They can't win against any tier of professional team that we've seen. | ||

(he got lucky that the banning phase is targeted on froggen) Snoopeh = said as one of the weakest junglers in the scene (this even chauster said) Yellowpete/Krepo = Krepo (zyra ----> first item hourglass,,,, that says alot) Yellowpete doesnt keep up with the other AD's (weixaoi and DL) atleast their synergy is keeping them up. And overall their play style as a team doesn't develop to compete with the other teams. Or aren't successful in it (esp aggressiveness) | ||

This subforum's small, the number of retards aren't as high, and the attitude of most of these posters is that of an underdog. You let this forum get big and you'll undoubtedly see the influx of 12 year old morons that are even more toxic than me when I actively try to make you feel like shit. Suddenly 1 Alaric becomes 100 PrinceXizors and the forum becomes unbearable with shitbags that trash the forum with nonsense. It's the mass mentality. Look at what SC2 did to TL. Hue i would be curious to hear neo's thoughts on this >:). I'm having a hard imagining him putting a negative spin on a sudden explosion of growth in his kingdom but I feel the same as you. | ||

Or aren't successful in it (esp aggressiveness) As we've said before, Yellowpete is actually quite good, he is just hindered by his team more so than anything. Also I don't think the first item hourglass on Zyra is really that much of a criticism. If you can get the gold building Zyra as a second AP carry is deadly, besides, he plays perfectly well on traditional supports with traditional builds. The Wickd criticism is valid but expanding a champion pool is much easier if the mechanical talent is there, which he has. I think Snoopeh is OK, just really inconsistent. Maybe they won't compete with the Korean/Chinese teams, but I have no reason to believe they still won't be a top EU team. | ||

I'd say a lot of snoopeh's and yellowpetes problem stem from Froggens #1 farm position and selffish play; it works, but it comes at a cost when Froggen is playing something silly like Lee Sin mid. Krepo just isn't that good, he's a step behind a lot of supports. | ||

Or they are gonna attract some really good sub's. Rating on CLG.eu 1. Froggen 2. Yellowpete 3. Wickd 4. Krepo 5. Snoopeh Are the backs from Froggen / Yellowpete strong enough to carry them to season 3? | ||

I'm having a hard imagining him putting a negative spin on a sudden explosion of growth in his kingdom but I feel the same as you. I actually think the forum would be worse if TL picked up LoL over Dota 2. Dota(2) at least has several big-ish outlets for people to spread out so not all of them come on TL but LoL really only has reddit and LoL forums. The floodgates would really be open at that point. The other difference is that Neo the the designated mod here while Dota's moderation is a bit scattered. Neo can do almost whatever he needs to do to shape people up while whoever reads the Dota 2 subforum reports need to make sure they're not stepping over the line by being stricter than the norm. | ||

I agree, Neo, does a good job of moderating this forum without handing out too many bans; despite some of our inane topics. Need much bigger moderating infrastructure if TL were to open up LoL. | ||
