idk about Xpecial's attitude problems but from recent memory he's the only NA support aside from Aphro (at least this split can't rememember all games from the last 3 years) who I have truly ever felt "damn he just carried that fucking game alone".

I hope he can fix his problems because all of the free agents (daydreaming, sheep, or that gleewhatever guy from C9T) are imo huge downgrades.

You think Sheep/BloodH2O is better than xpecial?

No, I think Xpecial is the second or third best support player in North America after Aphromoo and maybe LemonNation.

I don't think anyone can deny that. But if his head ain't screwed on straight or if there are internal issues within TSM, then I don't disagree with the benching at all. If he can get his shit together, he'll get his spot back without a doubt.

Sheep and bloodwater are good but not as good as xpecial, even when vulcan was top 3 bloodwater wasn't as good. But if the team can't play with xpecial as a person skill doesn't mean crap

If there are issues within the team, you have to put them out. Plain and simple. If he's off doing his own thing and not coordinating with the team, then he's actually hurting the team, despite his skill level. Think of it as a suspension for conduct detrimental to the team.


I'll just be clear and say that if Xpecial really was causing issues with the team Regi should've benched him and was not an asshole for doing so.

Regi in general can just be an asshole and I don't think that specific trait benefits TSM in anyway. He could do all the good things he's done without being an asshole about it.

Not everything in life is nice. If he's the guy signing your paychecks, you suck it up unless it's borderline crossing the line. Regi's blunt and sometimes borderline an asshole, but nothing he said was ridiculously outrageous, unlike Donald Sterling of the LA Clippers.

His Facebook post was simply stating that Xpecial was benched for attitude reasons and that if he can fix those issues, he can have his job back. I don't see an issue with it at all.

Tabe is selling coaching for 30k RMB per month (1 hour a day) right now, not sure if that's part of it hue.

I'm sure he could change the picture, but something tells me you are just nitpicking.

It's almost as dumb as the LotR family/house debate.

Keep in mind that Bloodwater was supporting Zuna.

being an asshole teammate is toxic and bad for success, however being an asshole boss has a pretty good track record throughout history.

Bloodwater and the ex dignitas support both had their moments of brilliance, but I think Xpecial is still way better

Not really. There's a big difference between being blunt or direct and being an asshole. When he was on the team Regi would often go to asshole stage and make himself sound like an idiot (or a bigger asshole). Since Bjergsen came I can honestly say I haven't seen him go asshole mode towards his team but I also don't get to see Regi as much as we did in S1/S2 when they streamed everything or in S3 when they had TSM reality show. Either way though, props to him for toning down the asshole vibes since taking over the team.

Onto something more game related. I've bought Vel'koz recently and supporting with him is so much FUN. It's the most fun I've had in a while in league. His damage and poke earlygame is insane, and while is damage falls off I still think he's quite good later on in the game through his soft CC alone. Has anybody been playing him and how do you guys feel about him?

Note I haven't played him against competent competition (I'm silver) so his flaws (lack of mobility, no tankiness) aren't being exploited as much as they would be against good players, but still.

probably not as much, considering how huge the chinese market is. Might need confirmation from the china experts here but apparently even the casters have huge fanbases that made them Millionaires by buying the stuff from their private online stores (chinese ebay/amazon).

Not sure if it was fake but first thing Misaya did after retirement was to post a picture of a porsche with the caption " finally i can buy a car"

lack of mobility is a big one imo, any strong early jungle going to make your life a living hell in botlane.

It's good enough to be played in Champions.
