to be fair you play devils advocate on pretty much everything regardless of defensibility

I don't think he is quite that much of a contrarian, I really believe he just thinks in a way that leads him to disbelieve what people say until he sees it for himself. I've never seen him change his opinion based on the argument, so I'm guessing much like Shikyo he has to see it himself to believe it.

I trust in a lot of things people say, but not when they are provably wrong and i have had experience/knowledge in that regard that points toward what someone says being wrong. People give yango credit for preaching about the strength of locket, but it was something i was advocating from its release, and then brought up again right after S3 changes were released, explaining it was the most cost efficient armor item in the game, and yango picked up on it around a similiar time and started posting about it after, yango has a reputation so he got credit.

I kinda prefered being in division I because the progress was slow, so even with a loss streak or a win streak you didn't move that much, maybe 30 LP? It made progress (when you're consistently over 30 LP, then over 50, etc.) over the course of a bunch of games seem more significant, compared to the divison V where I just rocketed into a promo series almost right away, ate baddies, had a loss streak a bunch of which was due to myself down to 25 or so LP (with an Elo initially way higher than the division, thus low losses), climbed back to promo in 4-5 games, ate kids, back to promo in a game, briefly wanted to rip my brains out, back to promo in a game², then just had random games with a collection of baddies in one and myself playing like trash and getting heavily carried in the following one.

It definitely didn't feel as satisfying getting up, but maybe it's because the system telling me "you should be higher" came down to me thinking I can't really register progress through it until I'm stabilised.
I liked the Bo5 a lot more than the Bo3 too. If your first game goes awry, say because of a troll, or a particularly stupid guy, you basically get a "you've got no room for mistakes because each game is critical now" vibe, compared to a Bo5 where it's just "yeah, yeah, you've got less leeway now, what then?".

On the other hand it seems that people prefer the Bo3 because the Bo5 are longer and put more pressure on them, from what I've read? And there's also the fact that series don't mean shit because they're a ponctual event while you're looking at the long run to track progress.
Still, earning +28 a win as a standard feels weird.

I feel like I should mention Yango has given you credit for that in Staff Chat before.

But that's enough off-topic chat for me, I have to say after playing all this afternoon, HOLY FUCK I'M SICK OF YI. It's only been one day, but I'm sickened with how useless he can be early, and after he gets a kill or two (he can choose to all-in with his ult and if it looks bad just run away) just turns into this monster that kills you in a right click and a Q. It's really no different than most other snowbally melee ads, I've just never seen so many in a short amount of time. Wtb thornmail every game.

I feel like as weird as it sounds Yi is the poster child for riot trying to make a dota-ish champion and then giving him scaling and nerfing his base stats so that he is LoL-ish. Yi kit seems to be one that is pretty easily balanced without scaling existing. but due to the ability to multiplicative scale everything about him, has no happy middle-ground.

Regardless of the validity of any particular argument, as a friend of Prince I can vouch for him not being a "troll". He may absolutely suck at internet arguing, capitalize worth shit, and be incoherent to the point of embarrassment but whatever he is arguing for he actually believes, meaning he doesn't just start shit for the sake of starting shit which is my definition of a "troll".

I realize you're joking, but for clarity they are just looking to coach the teams.
