Right before Twitch chat cancer overcame the removal of sub mode, the streamer explained that OGN players aren't allowed to stream due to their contract. Welp.

I believe that's a kespa thing, I remember flash streaming once but that seemed to be a one off.

Go watch Chasing the cup season 2, and see some behind the scenes stuff. Mostly, their team is still not what you'd expect from a team that's been together for an extended period of time



Also, I have to wonder how much this dude makes off this stream:

http://www.twitch.tv/fakerlivestream

29k viewers right now from an unofficial stream. lol

If he makes any money off it, I'm pretty sure Twitch will shut it down since it isn't the account holder's gameplay. It looks like the stream has already been flagged for questionable content.

Night blue is playing gnarly jungle right now and he swears it's good. Check it out quick quick

Edit: not very impressed so far, but maybe that's because the enemy Akali got really fed off Ahri and even though Gnar was full tank the other team just had a ton of damage. Still, ganks in mini form didn't seem strong at all early game. Just my early impressions, he seemed kind of low impact during team fights and not being able to control the transformation created some awkward mid game scenarios where he didn't want to farm camps because it would cause him to transform before a fight but then he was sitting at 80 conservation for too long.

I was out of town for a while and I played one game before the crash last night and my friend said he always bans Gnar just to make sure a teammate doesn't pick him.

Night blue is about to start another gnar game. Maybe this one will go better.

yea the instability of the forms seems like a huge hindrance for team fights, if you have a bad amount of rage when it starts rip

The big thing with Gnar (which I've been saying since basically I saw how he worked) is you need to manage your Rage meter and try to begin the fight with the E bouncing off the enemy tank and landing as Mega Gnar, or having the fight start with you at/around 90 rage, so that you can throw out a Q, AA once or twice, and them just go balls deep as you hulk out on the enemy.

jump is based on gnars hp not the enemy so who you bounce off should not matter

I think the idea is you hop off their front line and crunch on to their back line.

well sure and you want to vi ult the adc who is standing in a direct line between you and all 4 of his teammates but you just don't always get that lucky.

the only way to truly manage rage perfectly for teamfights is to go large periods of time 2+ min w/o farming or participating in wave clear if defense. it's possible but it's just really hard to line up the perfect conditions for him to be useful, when you transform like 2 moves/autos into a team fight he's super good but unfortunately that can be hard to accomplish especially if teams are good enough to try to bait it out.

Gnar seems like a good hero that is hard to play due to the way his passive works but from what I see of jungle Gnar I just don't get it, I feel like putting him in a role like top where he can rush bork before going full tank will make him less transform timing dependant. Azingy always talks about the reason he likes to bulid so much damage on Amumu and Sej is because he feels like going full tank makes them far more ulti dependant than they have to be (which [ult dependant] is pretty much what the rest of the full tank going community thinks of these heros, morso sej since damage mummy is somewhat popular from when Azingy first came on the scene.) I feel like this same logic can apply to Gnar, his base damage is really good, but when that is all you are working with you are very dependant on abilities being up at the right time, hence the rage at the start of a fight being such a big issue.

just my 2 cents

I feel Gnar is worth maining because it is unlikely that he will be unfaired nerfed due to competitive scene.

He really could have been buying pink wards for Akali. They go a long way and he was still buying greens despite having one on his SotAG.

It probably wasn't fair of me to say he was low impact. His team was just too far behind to effectively follow up.

I was Gold V off of the 8-2 in my smurf's placement (didn't want to end up so high, considering I only played champs I never played before or barely), I assume it can depend on when your losses occur, since even in the first 10 games the value of every single one decreases. So if you lose the last 2, and he the first 2, or premades modify the teams' average Elo and thus the gains, it can happen.

v it does, but I assume his smurf is fresh (mine is).

A friend got gold2 after going 8-2 in placements at the beggining of the season. Maybe it takes the ranking from the last season into account? He was gold5 last seasom
Be nice, buy wards and don't feed double buff.

Yes, placements do take account of your MMR of last season and on a fresh account, I think only Plat V is possible assuming you go 10-0 and vs decently ranked opponents.
