I think there's something funny about charging $250/hr for lessons in a free to play game.

I am by no means a Dlift fan, but I think EVERY team in the EU LCS would take him right now (god EU AD carries are terrible), and it would be an instant upgrade, and most NA LCS teams as well. Considering most people want their lessons in English...

That said, Dlift lessons would be dumb. It would basically consist of being called trash, him telling you to farm more, and then him complaining about how your mechanics suck. Even though Genja is worse, his lessons would be much more useful.

Per Hour? Only for the tip top teachers most likely or some kind of soccer camp.

I mean I got golf lessons when I was younger and it was fairly reasonable per/hour but it wasn't a professional player teaching me 1 on 1 with nobody else there.

Teaching isn't easy, and I bet there are vastly superior deals from other diamond 1 / challenger players that aren't in lcs, that most likely are better teachers(and wouldn't charge 250$ since they a. Of course there are going to be better deals from people that can't teach worth shit either. I'm not saying I know Dlift or any of the LCS players are bad, just that i wouldn't buy lessons from them even if I could afford it.

Only reason to pay Dlift(or any other pro) $ is to hang out with him and your their biggest fan or something. (or they actually can critique/teach you something, you never know)

I'm not saying I would pay that much, but people saying it's weird to pay when the game is f2p need to remember that virtually all "real" sports are f2p, and a lot of the equipment is less than a PC

LD is fine. Actually I see a lot of similarities between both C9 and LD. I wouldn't change either roster.

Don't forget parents are the final decisioner who gets to choose if they are gonna pay for it or not.
My parents spent money for me to learn badminton and swimming. Swimming is a skill for life while badminton allowed me to join sport clubs and even take up responsibility in the uni badminton club and actually can be used to put onto the CV.
You ain't gonna write on your CV that you are x league on a video game because for average public, they don't understand crap about the game, let alone how hard it is to get to certain league.
the only chance where it might be useful is that if the school has some kind of esport team and you are one of the A team or something.
Most uni I know just have an unofficial 'x game team' because they can't get approved.

20 bucks per division is actually insanely cheap. Just think about it. 4 games per each series, + 2 games to win series. 6 games is not worth 20 bucks, could charge 30 imo.

Tabzz is a Solid player on a team that is doing well. He does well, but considering the state of EU botlanes...

Even with like Week 4 Chauster, Chauster-Lift would be running train on the sad state that is EU non-mids.

yea I quoted the wrong person lol sorry.
I was typing all that on my phone.

anyway, I just noticed the LoL lore is actually quite interesting for some characters. Khazix and rengar is awesome but the best is probably leona and diana.
