People keep picking Akali into my Ahri. Is that supposed to be a hard matchup for Ahri ? Seems rly favored for Ahri to me. Before 6 you can really punish her and if you hit a charm have good kill potenital and after 6 you can easily charm her if she jumps at you and unload your damage.
And on the same note. Is there really any hard matchup for Ahri ? Fizz and Yasuo are usually banned in gold. Hardest matchup for me till now was Xerath but thats prob just me being bad avoiding his poke.
I've seen Bjerg and Froggen get wrecked by Talons several times on KOR, seems like the goto counterpick over there.

Alright, story time.
WoW is really goddamn huge in a small part of the royal family. Those big old school names that are still super active today - Kungen, Reckful, Hydra to name a few - basically owe all their money to them. The whole Ensidia project was bankrolled by an investment fond kind of thing owned by the royal family. And whoever that guy specifically is, plus his friends, really enjoy making "peasants" happy - in a sense they give someone 10k, which is like nothing to them - and then are making fun of how "big and impressive" that seems to the streamer.
Source: I was doing some work for a few years for the project that came after Ensidia. Dubai was the "big boss" and where all the money came from. Also heard a lot of stories from people involved at various stages of WoW history.

Is anyone surprised? I am really shocked that people think SK can do anything at worlds.

i dont think either western team will do good, ALL will crash and burn the most because they are so overhyped right now

After a long time waiting for official replays I decided to give this lolreplay a try, but on google I can mostly find info about bugs. Can someone, who is using it, tell me if it's worth a try and give me a quick brief how to set it up? Thanks in advance

Yes that was the talk back then. Someone from Dubai or w/e in Ensidia paying the apartements and stuff for Kungen and other people from the guild, so they can raid 24/7. He apparently also paid big for these legendary rogue weapons.
Sry off topic.

zzz fuck the achievement in ascension. It's probably the most toxic I've ever been at the game. It's the most maddening thing ever. Even if your team is 50 points up someone will fucking steal it.

Kungen is such a legend. Really changed how sponsorship works.

Yeah I got my 5 wins and I'm getting out before it becomes more serious than ranked.

Holy shit looking at riot's top 20 players at worlds and I'm just thinking how it's possible for them to blatantly publish something this wrong. They're gonna hide behind their "we're using a specific criteria" shit but we all know the sole reason is to push their game to new audiences zzzz

SK could make it out of their group if TSM continue their trend of terrible performances against international teams. Although I absolutely despise TSM and would be glad to see them fail to win a single game I still think they are slightly favoured over SK. Alliance has a good shot of making it out of their group, they just have to beat C9. As long as Shook doesn't succumb to his big event jitters and plays well I think Alliance should take second place over C9 in their group. Of course nobody with an IQ over 80 thinks that any western team will do better than "make it out of groups" unless by some miracle two western teams meet in the knockouts (unlikely since no western team will place first in their groups).

I have to agree with Ketara, there is a certain line you don't cross. You shouldn't have to run around trekking the world you had a sex change, and what scyx was doing was wrong, but that doesn't mean you can taunt her for personal shit like that.
That is part of being enlightened, you show respect to those around you because you understand how being an asshole can affect someone. There is being a dick because you don't kind someone's behaviour (ie cam whoring under the guise I'd a LoL stream) and then there is being a dick for the sake of being a dick (ie harassing someone because they identified themselves as not the gender they were born as).
You are free to say whatever you want, as long as you kind the consequences of saying it.
Just going to say this, when somebody posted that persons stream accusing them of lying about playing League for TL, the title of the stream said "Natural Girl" blah blah blah. Not coming out and saying you had the operation I can understand, because this is the internet and assholes will harass people for less. However, that stream going under that title is false pretense and a douche move.

TSM has a trend of terrible performances against international teams? Against Korean teams sure whatever (although that statistic is totally dumb for other reasons), but honestly against other international teams they have a pretty good track record.
Also that thing about the IQ; I think people with low IQ would be more likely to say Western teams won't do anything than people who actually use their brains to think about MUs and other variables. People with low IQ just copy whatever the Reddit consensus is, which is ofc that Koreans are worth masturbating over

The important new bit. 2 years out of the last 3 living in the region. So after next season LMQ would all count as residents. not to bad.
