All ex pro players I rate higher than Monte

the hate runs deep.

To be fair this split since jatt and kobe grew a pair and called things out rather than try to sugar coat it I've started to prefer them over monte as well. I still prefer doacristo on the whole because they're awesome (Though phreak/kobe is getting close to them). Deficio is already starting to do the same as EU LCS has progressed.

I'm wondering if Riot is planning on some small Jayce buffs. Damn I miss this guy. Nida can throw spears 24/7 and Jayce... Jayce can't :\

Nidalee spears aren't aoe, and her items don't scale with auto attacks. Jayce is fine where he is now.

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.

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.

all good points - league of legends casting quality in general leaves a lot to be desired, and it's perfectly okay to find color commentating itself uninteresting. i can also see how the unquestioning acceptance of monte's opinions is a problem, although many people will claim to have seen through his lies since forever

all that, however, still leaves room for the claim that monte was, for a long while, the best at what he did, and he set the standard that the rest of the industry worked to catch up to

In regards to Monte's whole coaching position. I find that this happens a lot in basketball, but a lot of times when teams do well, all the praise is given to the players, when the teams do poorly the blame is placed on coaches.

EU drafting is so fucking wonky.
RIP gets the yasuo pick vs nidalee, BETTER SEND LEBLANC IN MID INSTEAD.

I think Deficio understands the game better than Monte, but isn't as good at explaining it and Jatt is the other way around. I actually like Joe Miller more than Doa, but that's it for casters better tha OGN. BTW if you guys think Monte's analysis isn't as good as many think and someone should challenge him more, how about stepping up? Cause out of people who professionaly talk about league, I find his insight the most interesting to listen to :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.

I should be clear, I think Monte is the best analyst out there at the moment, my issue is the fact that it's so undisputed puts him in a spot where he could say something like Kha'Zix jungle hard counters Lee Sin jungle (he didn't say this) which sounds possible to someone who isn't sure, and nobody would be able to challenge this opinion because he'd just laugh at you with Thoorin on the next summoning insight.

Like I find their analysis of Bengi to be rather convenient , they constantly rip fans who said that Bengi was a big part of Faker's success, saying he just hard carried the team on his own, yet they both say Bengi had a terrible season in spring, while Faker is still on form. Isn't the premise that Faker would have carried reguardless of how Bengi played a contradiction of this?

and they literally make fun of people for giving Bengi any credit for their success

Yeah that's just sad lol. Bengi is a great jungler he's just more of a supportive jungler like Cyanide. But surely if you asked them they'd tell you that Cyanide is terrible (he just won Worlds and 3 lcs seasons after all).
