I am so not motivated to write this paper. Or take this final.

Will be interesting to see if they get picked up by somebody. LG-IM is looking for a second team, SKT 1 will probably get one or maybe somebody new enters.

Drunk Whose League is it Anyway has been pretty interesting tonight, drunk Travis and Nick Allen seem pretty sure that Evil Geniuses is going to pick up a LoL team in 2013. Not sure if drunk troll or not. They seem to know who it is and "it's going to shock people." We shall see.

Wasn't there that tweet someone from ex-Quantic made (HaiL9?) about EG going to pick up CLG.eu that got taken down shortly after?

Yep

+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

Forget about what other gossip was going on at the time that one was posted. Though I think that tweet is incredibly sarcastic. It was likely a joke about the other oh so and so will sign with team x.

However Sir Scoots is taking a much lesser role with EG now, so its possible. However I think his personality towards esports in general would have had him in favor of signing a LoL team anyways. Besides if we know anything about EG they will be purchasing a Korean LoL team.

Yeah, the tweet probably doesn't have any validity, but he was damn quick to delete it, it was up for 2 minutes tops. Of course he could be trolling (I was burning for buying into the dWoD thing because of Pobelter).

Based on the way Travis was talking about it, it's not a question of if they will get a LoL team, but who at this point. And EG already seem to have a team in mind so now we just wait till an official announcement.

That Travis guys man I don't enjoy him at all. An obnoxious piggy backer trying his hardest to be relevant. I don't think EG looking to sign a team surprises anyone, just the fact that they haven't done so already. Then again they like to market pick up already notable players, with either results or large fan bases to really plug sponsors. So with the LoL scene becoming more established, s3 around the corner its perfect time. TSM/CLG would obviously be perfect for them since those are two household team names. It just depends on what it would cost, which is little to no issue for EG.

I disagree, he creates plenty of quality content and does solid interviews. I guess you could say his relationship with CLG is too close but I don't think he lets that affect his content too much. Whose League and State of the League fill a niche role in covering pro LoL that no where else does.

Edit: I mean you're allowed to not like him, but I'd say you can't outright claim he doesn't provide anything positive to the community.

I didn't outright claim that he doesn't contribute to the scene at all. I just find it annoying that he fully imitates something more successful and gives it 0 recognition, State of the Game. His interviews are fine. Though as the scene grows and gets more interest, the quality of interviews have increased greatly.

In his "One Year in eSports" vlog he fully admits he aped the concept of State of the League from State of the Game (I always saw the name as more of an homage than a rip-off). Someone was bound to copy the concept and create a League version eventually, he just happened to have the connection with d-lift.

the new team

are all without sponsors. It is a pretty tough choice to do which one you are going to sign. Another note is that the amateur division in Korea is pretty huge. They have tournaments with prize money.

So, initial thoughts from running Vi? My games haven't been great overall, but I've so far gone with a mix of some tanky and some damage. The one I like best right now is something like Flask+Pots+Ward (doing this at low [read: my] level is hilariously good), then Phage -> Bruta, into eventual FroMal, BC, etc. Probably should have a GA in there, maybe BotRK for super late game.

I feel sometimes that I don't have a TON of damage, but it seems that since she's naturally jumping her face in, tanky is the way to go. I also wish I could get more AtkSpd on her with her passive, so maybe Hydra should be in there at some point (now this is getting rrrl expensive though).

But whatever, I'll keep plugging at this until I figure it out. Face-punching 2 OP.

W level 1, AD runes, but it seems like he followed a "guide". Going R>E>Q>W.

That was a crazy game by TOO turning it around with a Baron steal and showing the power of Vi by always taking out the enemy Trist in every fight. AD carries can't escape from Vi as the ultimate seems to be like Maokai's twisted advance, but I'm guessing Sivir would be able to spell shield Vi's ultimate because it's fairly obvious when Vi wants to charge in if she leads with Q to use an R to follow up.

You have a visual cue that she's ulting, and she's immune to cc during the charge. The baron steal made me laugh, he Q'd in, wanting to flash out after, but Trist ult'd him out so he flashed back in and stole it.

Game definitely cemented Randuin's as the core armor item on Vi for me. Fuck Bulwark, had I already decided, so I guess next time (tomorrow, it's fucking 7 AM here) I'll try madred -> BC -> randuin's build, relying on the shield to clear rather than finish wriggles. What annoys me is that I don't want to complete an important MR item early, but she has no interest in the negatron ones, and you're too cramped on space to buy double NMM.
I'm not a fan of his mallet buy, because Vi's Q with some CDR, and randuin's for the initiation, are plenty enough to chase people, and I feel her role isn't to lock down people as much as to stick to them anyway (as in "don't keep the AD there for you team to murder him: murder him yourself or zone him trying").


Which leads me to another point: in the jungle I've been able to get sightstone on "support" junglers fairly easily (mostly Nautilus and a bit of Mao so far), but on fighting junglers like Nocturne I've felt too pressed by core items (phage, randuin's) to be able to get sightstone without delaying components and thus items by a fair bit. That gap is much more felt on the later than the former.

So do you guys think the new Dring is a significant buff to swain/malz with its 5 mana per killed unit? It seems pretty ridic on swain, stack 2 or 3 and you can R waves like no problem.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Yeah and it's very bad for your core items that get delayed that way. I really dislike the new drings tbh, but that's maybe because I start flask, I feel so behind anybody starting boots mid if they get a kill or something, because then the flaks hasn't had time to fulfill it's cost-effectiveness and I'm forced to get boots if they use the money for boots2 -> I'm still behind in MS and they get the pen and I feel fucked. So whenever I need buffers like drings, I really dislike it now (I'm looking at you, ô poor Viktor).

I don't know why people would think it's a buff to them in particular just because they have similar mechanics.

It's not like other champs don't lasthit creeps?

He never left Curse, he just moved to the sub position after Elementz became starting support again. Looks like he just got around to officially changing his name. Although I'm pretty sure he tried out for Dig, but that obviously didn't work out. Still subbing for Curse ain't too bad of a deal, gets to live in the Curse house, gets Curse salary, and then the Riot salary. I'd say he's doing pretty well for himself after winning a 1v1 tournament.

Edit: Haha, apparently doublelift is doing an AMA in /r/doublelift. He really wants Aphro bad apparently
Aphro by a significant amount ahead of the others

He moved to the sub position after westrice left, you meant.

It won't be long until Elementz gets benched again, I feel.

Well I meant Ele becoming the starter again was what took him off the starting line-up, but sure, Westrice leaving secured him the sub position. And honestly I'd be okay with that, Rhux's talent might be wasted as a support as opposed to top lane (which he is really good at) but he's an improvement over Elementz and I'm a Curse fanboy at heart and I want them to be good dammit lol

Triforce seems good on her, along with BC, Randuins and a BT prob. She wants some ad caser items but then shes also a tanky bruiser.

Just fought a Vi as teemo and I'm glad I can now add another champion to the list of champions I can safely pick teemo against without worry. Blind counters everything she does and teemo out trades her.
