When he streams it's always the same champions over and over and over. Lux and Ryze (and Kayle) getting out of the meta really hurt his champion pool a lot, and his Karthus and Orianna have been unimpressive as of late. his biggest threat champion right now is his Ahri, since he still is strong mechanically. But such a mid is not an asset when you try to draft a proper teamcomp. The last champion he learned was Jayce. He has to do something or he will become a burden to the team. | ||

Even though in it you get half gold if you don't lasthit and actually can buy an item that makes you gain 100% of the amount of gold someone else gains next to you when they lasthit, there's still slight differences in farm(carries will get more). However, the supports(tanks in that game) still are useful the entire game and playing well as one can definitely make your team win even if you get 0 lasthits throughout the game. That game however has a ton of stacking items that stack on lasthits so you still need to know how to do that if you want to buy those(they generally are very cost-efficient). I think that the whole "passive gold = less skill" mantra is pretty flawed. Oh and one thing that would help with 100% farm allocation would indeed be cheap-ish items that have good ACTIVE effects but relatively cost-inefficient stats. The stacking thing got me thinking. What about machete giving a stacks to the onhit damage(like +3 per monster kill), up to a maximum of like 10 stacks. madreds let's it stack up to 25(with 25 flat), and wriggles 50(with base 50). IMO, wriggles should give mana sustain somehow in addition to the lifesteal for it to truely be viable. Almost every one of the autoattacking junglers have huge benefits from the 7mp5 of golem stone. It doesn't sound like much, but that is enough for noct for example, to use duskbringer on every camp and never go mana negative. Mana sustain would need to be higher than that for when you're just clearing jungle to really be a viable alternative. | ||

I don't even know where the Shard discussion is. A post out of time. You can teleport to Jarvan flag, I imagine you can use Shard active on it. But why would you really want to? Jarvan already brings CC and slows, the extra from the Shard isn't going to be that useful. It's useful on Tibbers because it makes it easier for Tibbers to stay in range for his damage aura to tick on enemy champions. I can see how it'd be useful with Zyra plants. That's actually a neat idea. | ||

Honestly, the first thing they should do if they want to help junglers is make Machete itself give sustain so you can come out of the jungle at full HP and mana. And, like, that sustain should be free b/c Machete is a bleh item as it is. | ||

People forget when Regi plays well, TSM generally win. He dumped all over mancloud in the semi-finals. Yes, he's a jerk. Yes, he's not as good as he thinks he is, but people who think you can randomly replace him with Jintae and TSM would be the same team are delusional. | ||

Edit: Not that I know of any that they could pick up. Edit#2: At the end of S3Spring it looked like WildTurtle might be able to develop into TSM's Imp, and draw attention away from Dyrus and open up opportunities for Regi's aggression, but in Summer he became very inconsistent. | ||

It's really the same with Chauster, tbh. He may be completely inept as a support, but at this point, there are no players with his level of experience/understanding of the game that aren't already on relatively successful teams. And playing with a fresh/incompetent captain/drafter is way more damaging to a team than playing with a mechanically deficient support. | ||

I'm a tsm hater and even I have to admit that regi doesn't play that badly and he always steps it up big time when he needs to rise to the occasion. He's just an arrogant prick which makes people, including me, hate him | ||

In many regards, having "arrogant pricks" like Regi is good for the scene. People always complain about "waaa this team/conutry/player has no personality" then they complain when they have one lol. Also, not saying that Regi is the nicest guy ever, but the arrogant prick aspect is definitely played up for the camera. Like, just look at how they structure Gamecribs - you have to realize that TSM still controls what gets produced and outputted in Gamecribs, you know? The vast majority of Regi's image for the public is a manufactured product. | ||

Which really shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. Before TSM Turtle was super inconsistent too. Whether he was mid laning on Legion or playing ADC. He'd have games where he carried like a champ and games where he looked like he didn't belong in the pro scene. Not much has change since then to be honest. Although, when I think about it, consistency really is the hardest quality to find in any pro. Not even in NA, finding a player who consistently performs very well is not incredibly common. And having them play consistently for an extended period of time is even less common. | ||

The vast majority of Regi's image for the public is a manufactured product. The people who claim they have "no personality" are just too damn lazy to learn the players they're criticizing. Even plenty of Korean players who are claimed to have no personality have plenty, there's just a language barrier in between the accusers the the players. I'd rather more good guys like Voy than raging assholes like Regi. Regi isn't just polarizing, which would be fine, he's just an asshole. You can't defend his actions on the basis that he's a nice guy, because he isn't. But whatever, there's assholes in all walks of life, why not league players? | ||
