Just when I started thinking about why I think this lineup will never work, they start the comeback. I just... man. I think there's something in the team atmosphere between nuke, mithy and Freeze that prevents this lineup from being top3 EU. Maybe nuke's toxic, maybe Mithy's arrogant and telling them what to do even when he's only right only half the time, maybe Freeze is boosting Mithy's ego, but after watching them for a whole split and seeing how they do with k0u, I don't think playing more will make them fix all of these issues. It just really seems to me like all of them could use a change of environment. Still hoping they prove me wrong, but this lineup is just giving me headaches :p
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

In retrospect I think Dexter was just simply a god at getting teams to communicate. When he was on LD it somehow all worked out, and the same goes for CLG now. People say it´s Monte all the time but honestly I think that Dexter had a large influence too.

It's just that nobody wants to watch a poke comp with so much heals, shields and disengages, this meta created by the new summoner heal is a bit silly. But yeah we're aware the goal is to win, I don't think anyone blamed RiP, but as viewers doesn't it seem normal to express that it is just not very fun to watch ?

Back when this kind of comp first debuted, we were used to farmfests and slow grinding oppressive games. S3 gave us a taste of what assassin comps and roaming hecarim gangbang comps looked like, and now this kind of suffocating play is kind of dull for spectators and also as players we feel the vicarious frustration. It would be like seeing a successful Teemo comp.

Zed, Fizz, Lee Sin all have flashy skills and plays. Soraka presses one button.

I gotta agree, Monte started coaching CLG way before they started playing well. Dexter is obviously the major key to their success. As to if he carried LD I have no idea but it could very well be considering how the LD line-up is doing now.

I'm with you RouaF but these things are very hard to judge because we hardly have any insight into how the respective teams work. It's easy to see when a player has great mechanics or good timing but much much harder to evaluate his influence on a team as a whole.

I think Monte was always and is still very overrated. Both as a coach and a caster.

Dexter on the other hand is really impressive.

it's a lot easier to rag on monte now when riot's inhouse casting crews have improved massively (although i'm still muting streams thanks to rivington and quickshot), but i don't think a reasonable observer can contest that ogn english casting has far and away had the most high level commentary for the longest time

you can't seriously expect to get a coach, and then instantly BLAMO, expect egos on the team to change overnight. The timing of dexter + boot camping during off season allowed CLG to evolve. To say Monte didn't play a role in that is a bit silly. Not to mention CLG played pretty good, even with having Link in Jungle and retiree's playing in mid. They still would have been #3 team in LCS (not nearly as dominating score obviously).

It depends on who is watching.Personally I enjoy doa's casting a lot more as someone who find analytical casting boring.If it was monte solo or he had someone else with a similar style to his I definitely would keep it muted as well.

the problem with Monte is that the inhouse crews aren't very good, I talked about this a couple days ago so I'll spare you the details but basically with Monte being the undisputed #1 analyst it leads to a lack of discussion on his opinions, which (imo) is becoming an issue.
