I'm not surprised actually. My dad spends a lot of time on the computer to watch japanese dramas and other shit 'cause he doesn't do a lot activities after working. At that age, you've probably seen and done a lot of things in your life and just wanna have fun.

Dadyrus (that name...) has pretty decent mechanics for a 55 year old plumber, i must say. He could easily get a decent elo with some dyrus coaching :D

His map awareness is pure shit though. He managed to miss losing an inhib turret and his own team getting baron at the same time while he was off splitpushing top.

Hmm, when did he start play LOL? If he just started today, Dadyrus is pretty good actually. There are some of my friends that don't know what they are doing in the first day.

He doesn't use Tab to check the scoreboard, and he's clicking all kind of shit. He also seems pretty lost in the shop. Looks like he's pretty new to the game, or perhaps just new to the s3 UI.

Hmmm so who does well against the common assassins mid(Kha'Zix, Talon etc)? I've been thinking about Fizz because he seems to be really good agaisnt most melees and can pressure them easily from as soon as level 2. I don't really like assassin vs assassin and going standard ap vs assassin feels like suicide.

EU is overall much better than NA imo. Fnatic resurgence while M5+CLG.EU(are they stll called that for now?) are still proving they can hang with the asians. Hell, I have to wonder how SK compares to NA teams, because I want to say even they are better.

A small note I have came up with after seeing the Blitz nerf: Its nice, but its not the issue. For me anyway, the problem is that he has one move that can change the entire flow of a game, in addition to having a larger lane presence than pretty much any other support. His kit is his problem, but they can't even "fix it" without ruining him entirely.

Also, he encourages safe play more than any other champion to me. If one member of your team gets grabbed, its over. No one wants to wander in too far or facecheck bushes out of fear of the giant metal hand grabbing them.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Viktor is the answer. Best champ in the game.

Anyone who can poke decently against them would do ok. Though since half the assassins have sustain (scyther+lee sin come to mind), not sure how good your poke will do.

Honestly, I just try and farm the lane while trying not to die more than once or twice.

Cass because her damage is ridiculous (SHes so hard to play though T_T_ and Mordes % of health damage and his ability to trade really well vs melee in a creep wave.

Cass is not good vs talon/kha... shes a squishy mage without hard cc a snare a shield or a gap closer, all they have to do is jump on you when your away from tower and your dead if you don't have ult.

Diana is what I had picked vs all those ads mid before her nerfs, but she still is almost as strong in lane.

When laning against Blitz, the grab has never been the issue to me, a much bigger problem in my opinion is his Overdrive and Power Fist and how he basically out-DPSes your AD as a support in 2v2s. The speed of the overdrive basically lets him camp brush and if you go behind your minions he's overdriving up to you and you had better have flash available at that moment or you'll die. Of course his Overdrive + passive also lets him survive anything but that again is a smaller problem in my opinion.

I really think the blitz grabs are hugely overrated for laning, I think I got hit by one in like 1 out of 5 laning phases. Of course it's a different story in the mid/late game.



Yeah I don't think Cass works at least against Talon, the Q is pretty easy to dodge with the blink and then you die 100%. I'm not sure how it goes against Khaz, something like EWQ -> flash behind might actually work crazygood against her after 6 but that's all theory

Saying EU is better then NA at this point is like saying that fish can swim well. Its pretty clear but every once in a while CLG (fuck man its gona be hard getting away from saying clg.na) beats a euro team quite well on the up slope of team changes.

Both scenes fall off pretty hard after the top 3 or 4. M5 and TSM have been falling off pretty hard recently and I wouldn't be surprised to see CLG do really well soon. Finatic has to go back to the drawing board now that they've lost their star adc. You might as well just start calling them Evil genius's tbh.

Honestly, I don't know why people won't shift the meta back whenever there is bruiser/assassin mid. If they run lee/scyther/talon/gladiator mid, why not put an ap that can top and then put your bruiser mid? Hell, I always wondered what happened to Kennen+Vlad top, so I don't see why you can't run them again.

Can't say I agree. SK was the only team to drop a game to an NA team at worlds (CLG) and I've never really been that impressed with their performances. Pretty much the biggest thing they accomplished was finishing 2nd at the EU Regionals. I think the top NA teams can beat SK fairly consistently (well maybe not TSM in their current state, but I think Curse, CLG, and Dig could).

You're selling xPeke and sOAZ kinda short there, they were games Rekkles got shut down and one of them was able to carry instead. I think Fnatic will still be pretty strong regardless of losing Rekkles.
