I actually do expect more from him then this. I find it funny how he's hating on pobelter despite the fact he just got out of school to finally play this game full time. Like, did he seriously expect some kid who's still going through high school for majority of his time to play like the best in NA? He played pretty well throughout last split despite his schedule. And let's be honest here, there's no fucking guarantee that any team other than c9 isn't going to end up in relegation. The teams are so fucking stacked this split. Even major changes across their roster, removing Snoopeh and Innox, with better counterparts, wouldn't leave them in any spot in LCS that would effectively make them relegation proof. Dig/LMQ/CLG/TSM/C9 are all fucking power house teams right now, are you saying replacing snoopeh and innox with the best free agents would make them contend with these teams? Doubt it. Even Crs is pretty strong this split, putting out scary games against the best teams. | ||

The best part is that he calls him not dedicated and unmotivated, and that LCS is "secondary to other ambitions in life" | ||

I think adding altec is a good start and EG should at least give themselves time, who knows maybe innox will literally become best top NA :> The game vs. Dig (typed coast first lol) Snoopeh had like 20 cs at 25 min because of trying to bail out InnoX by camping and giving him the entire blue side of the jungle. | ||

I think adding altec is a good start and EG should at least give themselves time, who knows maybe innox will literally become best top NA :> Pretty much agree on this. Pobelter is playing at a very acceptable skill level for LCS mids. He's not the best, but he's not the worst, and this was considering the fact that he was in high school, there's only room for him to get better. Altec is already a very solid improvement over Yellowpete, needs more time to jelly with krep0, but both these players are worth keeping. Snoopeh sucks, but are there better replacements? pro-level junglers are hard to find. Innox is very meh, but meta-playing top laners is even harder to find. Maybe Californiatrolz? At least when he plays yolo champs, he goes full yolo. | ||

I'd say it's the best part of the article aside from the fact that the entire thing is a farce due to LCS 3 of 5 roster rules. | ||

I read that part, the rest was mostly talking about my thoughts on EG's position. They're just sort of in a shitty position overall due to shallow talent pool. | ||

I'm trying to think of a top laner that could replace innox in NA, only three that come to my mind are yazuki, megazero (I'm not even sure if he's still playing) and rhux. At best they are marginal upgrades, sidegrades or possibly downgrades to innox tbh. Jungle I guess there's nk inc? The real answer is to follow Brazil, CLG and soon China in importing glorious Korean overlords | ||

Californiatrlolz real replacement for innox. | ||
