Looks like we're back to status quo. Hope more of you lurkers unburrow and talk with us. :3 If you have any issues or comments about the new design, feel free to PM Neo. |

If you're gonna take the time to do one do it right. If anyone wanted to put me at the top of Reddit just so I answered their queries, I'd write paragraphs. But I just want to be eFamous. "I wrote the Curse Hype Thread, the highest upvoted piece of TL content on r/LeagueofLegends, AMA" Woah. Woah woah. Woah woah woah. That thread would not have existed were it not for my TSM thread (which has 40 more replies, Dyrus tweeted it, AND it actually worked). I'm JonGalt and you can AMA. STILL NOT THE HIGHEST UPVOTED PIECE OF TL CONTENT S4 hype thread showdown. We'll post it at the same time. Start working now Asmo. P.S. You have some time. Takes me 80954 times longer typing it all out on this blackberry. You're on son. Who is gonna make the hype thread for the hype thread showdown? BW hype threads (based on what Yango has mentioned) were about over exaggerating facts and shrugging off weaknesses, the threads you guys made were more about making the players seem like Gods. Just different styles imo. Seeing one closer to that would be cool though Duly noted. I did honestly try to encapsulate that feeling (although could not put it into words like you just did), but I may have exaggerated a bit too much and not enough shrugging. God I miss LCS. If you had full authority of Riot for one change, what would you change? I would definitely change the client. I actually love that it is small and only full screens during the game, but get rid of that Adobe Air shit and make something real, scalable, sustainable, and works a majority of the time (on Windows, OSX, and Linux). Would change their compulsive need to patch and nerf every two weeks and let the metagame solve itself

We had originally planned for Aphromoo to take over my spot top lane when I stepped down. Unfortunately, after several weeks spamming top and taking a short break after this Spring Split of LCS, he decided his heart just wasn't in top lane.
I can respect that. Props to Aphro and I'm sure he'll have no trouble finding a team to play ADC on being as popular as he is. I feel like Nien's heart isn't in top lane either and don't think switching roles is as easy as Chauster/HSGG seem to think it is.
Could be wrong though. HSGG has got a point when he says the actually season doesn't even really matter and it'll give Nien plenty of time to learn it though. We shall seeeee. I like Jiji and Nien as people (is that the gayest thing I've ever said?) so I kind of want CLG to succeed more now than ever. Seems like all of a sudden CLG turned into the nice guy team lol.

I don't mind the patch cycle. Crucify me now, but I just wanted to get it out there. I agree they are too quick to nerf things, but just because a patch comes out doesn't mean they need to make changes to a champ. But then you get cases like Kha where they leave him alone and people just bitch he hasn't been nerfed yet.

Whoever on that design team thought Zed was a good idea needs to be fired. That thing makes no sense at all.

yeh agree with that assessment, Having watched a few of Nien's interview during the season I got the impression that he just wants to play LCS regardless of team and position.
He doesn't have the other super profitable option like aphro though, which is streaming and making at least the same $$$ he gets from LCS - the stress.

Definitely respect Aphro for not wanting to Top lane. Plus I really like his ADC and would love to see him picked up.
I know for myself I just don't like the traditional bot lane in general. I will support way before I ADC though.
Mid > Top = Jungle >> Support >>>>>>>>>> ADC

Oh that's a fun discussion! Where do people think their roles are skill-wise?
Support > Jungle > Mid >> Top >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ADC for me.

Same as you, except when I play AD Nami or Cait. I think a better ranking might be what % of time you play each role. 70% Support 25% Jungle 5% Other (Top ~ Mid > ADC)

Although I'm like 87% mid winrate so idk

Adc=Supp>mid>>>>>jungle>>>>>>>>>>>top
I expect nien to do fine in top.Would be very surprised if he is bad or good.He is just going to be average for most of the season.
Jiji on the other hand I want to believe he'll wreck everyone but I doubt it .
Also chaulift most overrated bot lane ever.Don't get me wrong they were good but the way they talk about that combo is like it was something godly that noone could even go even against which is simply false.To be honest bot lane was by far the least developed lane at that point in the game.

Eh, mine when playing Ranked goes something like:
Fill>ADC>Sup=~=Top>Mid>>>>>>>Jungle
Fill mostly because I do like to respect calls if they aren't too egregious and polite...which usually leads to me playing support. Unless it's jungle, because I haven't been good at that since mid S2 lol (my jungle is really, really hit or miss).
EDIT: Also, Nien going top is interesting given he's got the mechanics. We'll see how he transitions, but transitions are generally hard to make in such a short time frame.
I'm mostly doubtful CLG will be able to make it into Worlds. Likely, NA will send TSM (always a strong contender with a solid lineup), plus potentially any other LCS team (given how the playoffs turned out).

When I get back home in July, we'll duo as a support + AP bot lane all the way to Challenger league. Then we'll get picked up by Dig and help them throw just to piss off Alaric.

Bout dat Chau...
Didn't he say he wanted jungle because he felt like he couldn't carry as support? Now he's back on support because he couldn't carry in da jungle (among other reasons). I only remember Chauster playing whacky shit like Galio support but I mean I'm sure he can play up to LCS NA standards but Chau ain't no Godlife. Doesn't even possess an inkling of Godlife's powers. I think Chau's probably the most over rated player NA and has been for a long time.

Jungle > Supp > Top > Mid > Adc

What the hell is going on with CLG lol, the Gamespot article is trolling right??
Top- Nien Jungle- jiji
LOL what's wrong this these people, why doesn't CLG just pick up a jungler and a top laner...
|
I feel like at this point the only person that really thinks Chauster is godlike is Chauster.
|
I only play ARAM, what roles are there on that one? Poke, support, reset, broken and lolnoway?
