(Artosis/Tasteless/[media]/etc). well i mean, you also ditched out on that battlegrounds thing when it wasnt going so great. which while only 1 event summed up what most people think about you. you got handed an invite you didnt deserve because of a personal friendship and then made yourself look like a fool. | ||

I was supposed to test for Prime (Chexx even tweeted they were hosting tryouts) so that is actually what pulled me off HoTS and back into LoL. I switched to top because that was the only position I could test for, other than ADC. Began to learn Ryze/Soraka/Shyvanna/etc. So I played on a D1 ID for a while since I wanted to rapidly get back into the spin of things/be forced to perform so I would learn faster. Monte even came over and helped me out once practicing. Then I began to coach/play/practice/got a new boyfriend, I would duo with him in lower ELO's, cause it's fun/a hobby we share.. So I do not currently *possess* a D1 of my own atm. The prime test didn't work out (slot was filled before being able to test), I also do not believe I would've made it given my rustyness/how much the meta changed/etc. EDIT - Included a short chatlog with Gerrard in case people think I'm lying or something, the OGN translator MK is the one translating, even though I can understand the majority of what they're saying, I want no confusion: + Show Spoiler + [2014-04-10 오후 10:26:47] Min Kang (Emkay): 미드에 가장 자신있지만, 필요하다면 다른 라인도 충분히 잘할 수 있습니다 [2014-04-10 오후 10:29:09] PRIME Team Coach & CEO: 흠 저희팀이 다른팀들에비해 사정이 좋은편이아니라 [2014-04-10 오후 10:29:12] PRIME Team Coach & CEO: 현재 미드는 다 있고 [2014-04-10 오후 10:29:15] PRIME Team Coach & CEO: 다른라인으로 테스트 [2014-04-10 오후 10:29:17] PRIME Team Coach & CEO: 보고싶으면 [2014-04-10 오후 10:29:20] PRIME Team Coach & CEO: 테스트볼수있게 해준다고 해주세요 [2014-04-10 오후 10:29:36] Min Kang (Emkay): 네 한국말 잘 알아들어요 이 친구 ㅎㅎ [2014-04-10 오후 10:30:09] Min Kang (Emkay): 다만 한국어 철자 빨리 쓰는게 좀 느려서...실제로 만나면 충분히 알아듣고 말도 어느 정도 합니다 문법에 어려움을 느껴서 그렇지 [2014-04-10 오후 10:30:22] PRIME Team Coach & CEO: 아 네 ㅋㅋ잘하시는거같아요 [2014-04-10 오후 10:30:54] Min Kang (Emkay): 넵 제가 통역하는 게 혹시 한국어 아예 못하는것처럼 보일까봐 걱정되서 ㅠㅠ 죄송합니다 [2014-04-10 오후 10:33:02] Nick: How much time do I have until I would have to test?

I FF'd cause my game vs parting had no merit or affect on the pool, and I was having a bad anxiety attack in lieu of everything going on(yes, I have had issues with anxiety/depression and unless you've experienced it or seen a loved one affected by it, you can't understand). I was kept in Day9's greenroom for the remainder of the event, and I was also physically harassed in the elevator sort of, which really started/scared me at the time actually. I acknowledge I was not on the same calibur of play as most players there, but not everyone getting invited to a tournament has to be. I had replay packs/etc to back up my ability to *compete* with top koreans, and I know who I practiced with/who asked me for games/etc, the invite was made by Redbull's Sam Keene, not Day9, although people believe Day9 played a huge part in it. I also am still a little sad that people forgot I had Squirtle beat in game 2 before the disconnect happened, that would've changed a lot I feel. There was no shame in losing to Squirtle/Ret, Ret went on to 3-0 IMMvP the following week. | ||

I explained this in one of the reddit posts :O I had to go back to America because I have A-Typical ABPA in both lungs. I was there for around 7weeks, came back to Korea and played HoTS. During this time a close Korean friend whom i got into LoL/coached/taught him a lot (we share very similar champ pool) I told him to use the ID because I wanted to prevent decay/was unsure when I was going to come back to Korea (I was super super sick, doctors in RI Hospital told me I was facing resp. failure had I delayed like 1-2more months). He played/etc, I came back, played HoTS. Then when I came back to LoL *playing* (I was on the HoTS train for a bit, I liked the game a lot) the ID was something gross like 138-182(?)(edit this was wrong, but it was some like -30 more losses or something) or something and getting +12lp a win and -20~-25loss. Now I have it back in the +%. VOD's are also all on my twitch of me raising it back up/etc. I was supposed to test for Prime (Chexx even tweeted they were hosting tryouts) so that is actually what pulled me off HoTS and back into LoL.

There was no shame in losing to Squirtle/Ret, Ret went on to 3-0 IMMvP the following week. As someone who watched some of the cast of the NLB finals earlier today, here's two things that I noticed/kinda bothered me: - "OK" is not a valid response to what your co caster says. Instead try saying something like 'yes, because.." or "no, because.." or "alternatively, ....". Anything that keeps the flow of the conversation going and allows both you to show insight and allows your co caster to then respond to whatever you say. Just saying "ok" basically shuts down the entire train of thought/conversation you had going. - You seem to have a habit of using a fancy word instead of a more appropriate 'normal' word. Sometimes this fancy word doesn't mean what you're trying to convey, which to me is kinda grating and might make you come across as arrogant or snooty. While I didnt hear it in the cast, saying "direct input" instead of move is a good example of this. An example from today's cast is saying "Shyvana's build is futuristic" (when talking about getting BotRK/Randuins because Shy knew he needed the slows later). You have a good voice for casting though, and with a better co caster (he seemed completely lost, but I hear he's really humble and looking for ways to improve on reddit, so there's probably hope for him yet) the cast would have probably been fine. Good luck. | ||

Which by association means I could post it here~ | ||

I couldn't agree with you more sometimes my responses were really really poor to him and that is my fault, but also our lack of synergy (we just met today). Thanks for the comment about my voice too, I was in heavy debate on how to speak today, Monte/Doa/etc ended up recommending me to use a faster/higher voice to speak faster to get my points out, whereas I could've casted from the diaphragm but was unsure how this would go. ~ | ||

I think Evelynn/Soraka/Lulu/Twitch/Thresh/Kha'zix are all fine bans and generally pretty 'safe' bans. You could also target ban your own team, as well as the enemies and just remove the chance of having toxic (or good) hit-or-miss champs like LeeSin/Yasuo,etc to reduce variance. | ||

December '13 is not "long ago" or "when i was younger" that is practically fucking yesterday. Then you factor in everything else you've done and your know-it-all personality and you get hatred. | ||
