Interested in helping start an on-topic, serious League discussion thread? PM Neo to talk about how to get started. |

knowing how to not trash the house you live in and possibly thinking its not worth it to rent a house if you are unlikely to stay in a league doesnt sound like lack of business experience rather than common sense
True, I was mostly thinking about the whole not getting anything in writing thing. They could use some common sense too yeah.

It would be better if the money/math was shown directly. It isn't. There's still some missing money involved in the whole Marn thing. Either way, it's way too messed up to gather correct information from either of the two posts(megazero or marn's). The first step would be to try to figure out how much money they(the team/business) started with. We don't even know that, and I doubt we ever will.(Very rough estimate is that there is 62500$(12500 x 5 starting players) + 25000$ he mentions Riot paid to them afterwards for expenses = 87500$. Would this be maximum earned for the team if everyone stayed together for that length of time? This figure probably gets screwed up depending on how it's paid out. At the VERY Least, there is a 25000$ afforded to housing/expenses)
The idea that the lease is under the player's names is especially scary. Good luck with that stuff.

What are 2 other pokemons I should have on my team? They don't need to be Jayce level OP but should be at least as strong as Nasus or Renekton and need to not be permabanned by Nintendo's random rules.
I personally would go with lucario and espeon. Those 3 have good type coverage and are very strong but not OP or anything.

I don't think I'd want to know the money/math. Do we really want to do some fan-accounting?
Either way, that all sounds like stuff I'd do when I was 19. You really don't know anything about housing, contracts and all that. Better to learn now than never.

Not really asking for fan-accounting. Just saying that plain numbers tell a story a lot better than people ever will.

Am I the only one surprised that they agreed to give Marn the same salary as the players, although he probably didn't work half as much as they did? Sure he says he "benched" himself from the team, but he's like gold league and with him they wouldn't have made it to the qualifier tournament even.
But I agree with y'all, renting that huge ass beach house to live the "baylife" was the most retarded team decision.
and holy moly, 100$/guide? Can't even imagine how much TSM guys or Doublelift get per guide, I'd probably plan it in my daily schedule (1 or 2 hours) to work on guides to pump out one at least every 3 days. Easy Moneyz.
Oh the irony that Ecco and heartbeat suddenly weren't too lazy to write guides after being knocked out of LCS.

like literally 0 of you have any clue about any depth of what happened, all we have is an incoherent post by megazero "just as a warning" that also hints strongly that he was fucked by marn. marn is one of the few league people i actively dislike, but there's no reason any discussion regarding the team or their salary, by people who know nothing about any of it, should be taking place here. Hmm, the fact that you do not condone pitchforks and witch hunts is highly suspicious. Is the Velocity manager putting money into his own pockets too? Is the whole system corrupt? Quick, make a Reddit post! He's probably sour about the whole Maplestreet thing on reddit. Not that I blame him.
Teach me how to Reddit so I can find what you're talking about. It sounds delicious.

Draven still hardbops her though. Her laning also isn't bad like a lot of people thought. If you can make it to level 3, Vayne has strong laning. edit: How do I have 500 posts already. I'm a nerd
What is Machine Gun Vayne and when should I build it? Vayne is my go-to adc but building the same thing over and over is really boring.

This is just me but I would not have signed on to a 5000k a month mansion without a very stable source of income at the age of 19.
And if I did, I certainly would not have lost my fucking deposit lol.

Its actually kinda sad, Reddit is constantly shitting pretty intensely on VES and talking about how they dont deserve to be in the LCS. Maplestreet had enough after last week's games and posted some, hm, choice words about reddit and the community which he sebsequently removed before posting this blog post shortly after.

It was a bit sad, mostly because people started bringing up how Reddit helped VES find a gaming house and what not. He just made a mistake of treating Reddit as a single entity rather than a huge community made up of polar personalities and voices. The hate that can be on that site is unreal, and it's unfortunate that players have to learn to get used to it. Being in the spotlight is OP.

What's the entire team? I can't really say anything if I don't know what else is going with the Salamence lol. Also what are Salamence's specs? Mixmence? Physical? ChoiceSpecsDracoMeteor? And is this for Battle Subway or Elite 4/World Tournament grinding or what?

Is espeon good against AI? I always thought that espeon would be more suited to competetive, or singles 6, and guessing battles. Espeon is pretty cute though.

Probably going to be choice scarf physical mence or dd mence. This is for Battle Subway/World tournament crap, or whatever is for the three man single battle thing. It would also be used for battling people online possibly and most definitely for trashing little kids that think they are good at pokemons (although honestly with just salamence i could beat all 3 because they are worse than ai). Short answer is in nintendos singles 3 thing. All I know is that I want a fuckin Salamence. I've made themed teams in the past and now I just want random pokemons.
