What? 1k is super cheap for the experience.
Just stay and food alone is 300 dollar expense, for 2 nights 3 days.
700 for the time to hang out with pros? cheap, totes worth.|
also, new solomid stream layout is super fcking nice. i hope they keep it.

right, I'm more speaking from my point of view - have some money, but not willing to spend that large a percentage of my current savings on such an experience
I'm sure people will spend the money, and awesome for them, I'm sure it will be tons of fun. But I wouldn't spend that much, probably even if it was a significantly smaller portion of my savings.

riven cant run into a fight an insta kill someone and use a skill to get out again the way zed can or kassadin can
its super obvious if she's going in and she probably does'nt want to use Q except if she's already at target so that just leaves E which is a short jump for a squishy melee ok, I see what you mean, she can't technically be classified as an assassin but she has the kill power of an assassin mixed with the team fight capabilities of a bruiser - she really is quite bonkers
`
assassins notoriously bad at teamfights tho lol
they tend to snowball early on and split push a lot and then catch people out of position coming from a weird angle in teamfight

Probably not worth if you have to fly, but assuming you live somewhere in so-cal, 1k + gas money, is super good deal.
plus, think of all the upvotes you get when you post your pics on reddit.

I think Lucian is in a decent spot, I really wish getting the reset on his E was more reliable/helpful. YOu can only reset it by getting a kill with your ult, yet seems the best time to use his ult is when he is out of range to AA, but if you are that far out of range why do you need your dash refreshed? To go back in? That whole synergy feels awkward to me, but the rest of his kit is sweet and feels so good when executed correctly.

The only reason that is added is because it would look really cool.

Tbh he's already pretty damn mobile on the whole, I think what monte suggested once which is make his W able to be fired on the move would be better. I think resetting his E on non ult kills might be a bit too much and result in a mid game penta kill machine when his tri finishes.

To be fair, if you do happen to get that reset, you literally feel like Neo.

Lucian's ult is so badass, his entire kit is badass they just pretty much made an action hero into an ADC. Even when I considered him trash at release I still picked him up just because he looked so cool.

I feel like Keanu Reeves, but more because of that movie where he's a gun templar

That was equilibrium with Christian Bale, remove movie scrub from premises

my only beef with lucian is I want the W speed buff from hitting the W, but he doesn't appear to need any love so it's not goin to happen.

Riven is and has always be an AoE Assassin-bruiser-lane bully-late game carry.

If you think you have money, but not that much, then you don't actually have money ^^.
The deal isn't there for everybody, but just for a small segment of group. You and I are clearly not in that group, but people blow $1000 for road trip or casino or stuff on one particular weekend all the time, and that's fine.
If they do CLC Tourcamp in various cities across America, then more people are gonna like it. Right now unless you live near the camp, it doesn't make sense to fly all the way there to attend.

I know that movie, it's not what I'm referring to. I swear there was a movie that wasn't the matrix where he did this.
I'm not crazy I promise ;_;

I have no interest in it, and I don't think it's silly to feel like it's overpriced if it isn't your cup of team, but the people browbeating Kelby trying to make him feel like a bad person for it really grind my gears.

I giggled
Honestly though, I cant see why people are trying to attack CLG for being money-grubbing. God forbid they offer an awesome time that's completely optional, but doesn't take away from the fact they don't really gain any money from this. I don't even like anyone that's not Doublelift on that team, and even I can see it's kinda awesome. Sheesh.

God forbid CLG to try and do an awesome PR move and make some money off of it. Please, those fantasy camps for retired pro sports players are by far wayyy more expensive.
