Link has been pretty underwhelming all 3 games. Maybe he just doesn't have the flair jiji does even if he is better.
And it was odd to pick taric without picking urgot at the same time. CLG drafting still has much to be desired =/.
At least CLG is still qualifies for the next round ^^.

Scarra teamfighting so bad. He keeps diving into CLG while his team is far behind/not ready to commit. He just gets chunked while doing minimal dmg. Also, I hate the new trend of ez's going the gauntlet. It makes it so that u deal less overall dmg, and you're going pretty much no crit. That makes u do waaaaaaaay less dmg than IE PD LW just because of the crit factor. You can't do this if your team is a low dmg comp, and Dignitas's comp is a low dmg comp. Like these days, with health stacking benig the new things that tanks do, you can't go low dmg. You have to go for as much max dmg as possible or you're irelevant until like max items.


Not sure what champion Scarra was wondering about, but it reminds me of something else: it seems as if every single Twisted Fate player these days is obsessed with gating in to 5 players and using Hourglass. Like literally every game with TF has this happen at some point.

It's effective sometimes but not something that should be done indiscriminately. As soon as Hourglass runs out, if our team hasn't been overrun then TF is instakilled (sometimes they manage to flash away).

That's why you gotta zhonyas before the tp goes through. Same effect but twice the swag.

Why am I so attracted to NyJacky's stream?
He doesn't really commentate.
His plays aren't off the walls bonkers.
But damn if his mangled english isn't cute as fuck.

I feel like the damage Ez does is enough for Jax's and Xins and other people who rush Triforce first which doesn't provide much tankiness. Hotshot kinda charged in one fight and the enemy Ali could tank more than he could because Ali's ult is the best tanking tool in the game. Then Jax died and Ali didn't have a scratch on him.

Most of these games I don't think the AD carry is doing enough. Cait(dlift) didn't have enough farm for IE PD LW Warmogs, but he could just skip the LW and still be the strongest champion in the game. They could always get another AD on the team if they felt there was no way to peel for their only AD or something.

If the current meta is about being tanky then all your team needs is an AD carry that can bring down the tanks, and if your enemy team's AD has no crit scaling then all you have to do is fight a fair 5v5 fight without anything fancy like Jax chasing into a 1v3 and you'll win. IE PD is just that strong. People may be tankier than they used to be because they're building health now, but there's a limit to this effectiveness. Stacking too much health is almost as bad as stacking too much armor.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Well, particularly vs. an AD health is worse than armor (assuming they have lifesteal).

do 150% damage on all the damage skills you aren't leveling up tho
level 9 e on corki, 9 e on nasus means your Q is level 2 tops and you probably lost lane p hard

Corki's Q does magic damage.

The difference between L2 and L5 Nasus Q is 60 damage + whatever you missed out via a slightly longer cooldown.

There is no such thing as a level 9 team fight. The duo lane isn't even close to being level 9 compared to when the solo lanes hit it.

I like his stream to learn because he doesn't do "off the wall bonkers" plays.

Just really solid, non-risky midlane play. (even in yoloQ).

NyJacky seems to die a lot though. If you want solid non-risky play you should watch Salce.
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.
