Patoy and Crumbzz carry one of the best teams in the NA and neither player is on the team.

Not that I play Shaco much, but lately whenever I have been picking him I've been trying to approach him differently, as more of a team-fighter. It works, buuuut... not often enough. You have to get ahead early so you can afford foregoing damage-oriented items in exchange for getting a tankier build off the ground in the mid-game -- at least that's my experience so far. Does anyone else play him differently than the 21/9/0 assination/split-push roll? I'd like to play him more often, and I'm going to go back to the basics for a while to actually master him, but it'd be nice if he was more... present in team fights.

Odee needs to market their individual players better (read: start marketing them, period). Crumbz so far behind is just sad. Patoy not winning is a travesty.

Random solo queue vods let you show off cute shit, but a competitive AD needs reliability and stability, not cute shit, and that's where Bebe excels.

I think it should be Genja but it'll probably end up being Alex since he said he would rather skip it (Diamond said that too though so who knows).

I just saw the wickd vs soaz 1v1 challenge. Is that really for the allstart spot? Or are they doing this after voting concluded?

Semi-related but I feel like Lautemortis is tragically underrated because of coL being so poor as a team. I dunno that I'd take him above Crumbzz/Saint, but I'd probably slot him as the 3rd best LCS jungler. Every time I watch a coL game he is making plays(or at least, setting up should-be plays that aren't followed up on).

Its more like Wicked know he would not beat Soaz at allstar vote so he challenge Soaz to a 1v1, a last hope for him to catch some late-time vote. But he lost so Soaz rightfully won the all-star thing.

The allstar vote was close due to the reddit trashing of wickd for being worse than soaz and then the subsequent defense of wickd which swung the vote back the other way. The reason wickd did the challenge was because hyrqbot came up with the idea and proposed it on twitter, wickd thought it was a good idea and so did soaz.

I actually checked the standings 20 minutes or so before the challenge and Wickd was ahead.

Just tried support syndra for the first time, with Caitlyn against Taric MF. Felt amazing and completely stomped the lane. The harrass from lvl 1 is insane and she has one of the best disengages for supports, along with some of the best DPS. Also felt like I had good presence in teamfights with the stuns and max orb ults on the carry. Definitely going to be my primary support from now on. I also don't understand why she's never used in this way. All she needs is mana regen and cdr.
If you get bluebuff like I did in that game as a support, you can for example at baron just spam orbs side by side and when they come, W a third orb in the middle while replacing the orb you took and then fire off a scattered AoE stun. They didn't like running into that most of the time though so we just got free objectives etc

That publicity will net you alot of vote. I believe that Wicked surpass Soaz during the whole period of their duel. But after he lost Soaz beat him again. Wicked took it very seriously, I feel bad for the guy after seeing his sad face on stream, not sure about Soaz though since there is no Fnatic stream and what I find funny is while the whole EG was standing behind Wicked the whole time, Xpeke just continue to soloQ, lol. Must have great confident in his teammate .

just rewatched the bo5 for the lulz and noticed that Wickd didn't gg a single time he lost, while Soaz always gg'd ~_~
and lol at snoopeh asking Soaz in the postgame raidcall if he got teammate's help. Soaz says no and Snoopeh says:" yeah, we didn't help wickD either"

On that same note, so is incontrol. What do you think the chances of him defending Riot and LoL are had EG not picked up a team? Pretty low I bet... but hey, good for him anyway.
Just looked this up, only a few people will get this, but LOL the person shitting on League in that convo is TuElite hahaha
