I've been watching CLG's streams every night for the past month. They lose lane against obviously inferior teams 50% of the time, but still end up winning because their mid and late game is just that much better. If they were playing good teams, they would lose all those games. Their level 1 is weak. Jiji sucks at roaming and pressuring the other guy (he got 0 plays off once in a veigar vs karthus lane. I cringed) In some cases Aphromoo fed. Hotshot crumbles in his 1v2 after his tower dies. Hotshot (unless he's playing nidalee) doesn't win lane. In the end their biggest problem is having no pressure from their solo lanes. If their bottom feeds, as well, they're usually doomed.
Regardless of how fed or how big an advantage he has, jiji will never exert map dominance. Ever. This is their biggest problem right now.
My thoughts aren't very clear. They are still a really good team but they are relying 100% on chauster for their early game. Against really good teams this will not be good enough.


Agree with most of those, but the one thing CLG does well is that they create space for Doublelift to farm, and against lesser teams they don't want to lane 2v2 vs Doublelift and Hoshot for all his well documented flaws is a pretty good 1v2 laner though his decisionmaking post his tower dying is poor, as you said.
I think that Jiji is probably their biggest problem. He's not aggressive, he doesn't farm well, he barely roams, in fact he has no significant strengths other than the 1 in 10 times the old jiji shows up and he wins his lane. At least Hotshot does some things well, jiji really doesn't anymore.

Still any team that has Doublelift is going to win a certain % of their games just from the fact he is so damn good

There are some times I almost feel bad for Doublelift. I think he would be much better with a new team, and I'm pretty sure any decent team would love to snap him up should he ever leave CLG, but I don't know his thoughts on that.

Damn straight.


There's not a single NA team that would significantly improve with doublelift on them.
It's a matter of changing CLG, not DL moving to new team.
Have Link115 play mid; jiji in bench position is the best move right now, if possible. But jiji too much leverage/weight for clg to just move him to bench.

That probably would be best overall for now, at least better than getting used to a completely new team.

There's a jungling change in PBE. All small jungle mobs are having their health cut in half. Personally I don't like the change.

Tryn, Fiora, Kha, Jax, and Rammus also have a lot to gain.

If anything it makes wriggles better at fighting jungle monsters since there won't be as many chances of overkill. Jungle will do less damage though.

Why 50%? That seems way too much. At most it should be 25%, I think.

Link. What can we do to stop it though? Better just embrace the jungle changes.

It's already been changed though lol, read Moobeat's reply to the top comment in the Reddit thread. Their health has been lowered by about 1/3 instead of 1/2.

Best case scenario: Jiji gets benched, finds the super saiyan within him, analyzes really good midders like froggen or misaya and becomes world class player. CLG goes on to win S3, capture the moon and throw galaxies at a danger threatening to destroy earth. gg.
It has to happen. Link only exists for Jiji to realize his own weakness and rekindle his passion for being the best. Jiji is the main character. Riot please. + Show Spoiler +

Run hp/5 quints. You can always base after full clearing your jungle at level 4 if your lanes aren't failing that hard.

Apparently Morello will be nerfing AD casters. My rage knows no bounds right now.
