He lost me when he started talking about his opinions of Brood War. If he'd left it at "I happen to think that the gap between Brood War and all these other games is so stark that it makes all these squabbles seem petty and silly" the video would have been significantly better, but he belabored the point badly.

This is pretty common for videos where someone just talks off the cuff about a subject. It's ridiculously easy to get lost in the eddies of your own stream of consciousness.

I will admit, I exceeded by daily NaCL intake when he talked about the great early LoL articles that never got featured but then only name dropped Fionn.

I mean, I wonder who was the bear that solo-wrote the entire LoL Season 2 coverage? T_T

Thorin's scope of TL writers is just Fionn. Let's be real.

TBF Fionn's Rito exit strategy was fucking brilliant.
Diss the shit out of Odee in public.
Get frontpage'd on Reddit (more times than TL articles. double zinger).
Get's suspended from Rito.
Transition into LL, has bigger name in community cuz of debacle.

fucking brilliant.

This type of brilliance is why he's the head writer xD

BTW: http://euw.lolesports.com/articles/championship-points-unlocked-and-more-2015-lcs-changes

Spring split matters now it seems. Helps consistent teams but not necessarily the hottest team at the time of worlds.

It's interesting that they ported over part of the KR Circuit Point system. It's a good system, and consistency should be valued. Not sure Winner of Spring/Summer should auto-qualify for Worlds though because you can have a great Spring but then collapse in Summer. Should be like the KR system where top points gets an automatic berth into Worlds, so you can't just win Spring and then say "Welp, I'm done for this year."

The system in the OP is Summer winner -> auto qualify; Spring winner -> points.

Jax beats Gnar in lane though. And late game jax is still better.
You obviously played the lane wrong.

Gnar is weak against anyone with a gap closer. Just leap strike, he will either hop away or if he fights use your dodge and w and you win trades. Gnar has like no hp regen and generally lifesteal of just dorans blade isn't enough.

I have played this matchup alot. both as Gnar and as Jax.

Gnar won't die to Jax before he reaches a tower, and I don't think Jax can towerdive and kill Gnar considering all his cc and mobility.

Gnar has a super spammable slow, %health magic damage and big physical base damage so he'd trash a bruiser even when built full tank. With a thornmail he'd amp it up some more.
If Gnar doesn't feel like fighting Jax, he won't fight him long, reducing the impact of Jax's ult's active.
The cd on their respective jumps are irrelevant if Gnar flees because he'll get MS boosts just autoing him and tossing 1k range boomerangs, and mini-Gnar has more base MS than Jax already at higher levels. Even if Gnar can't run out of range, Jax won't jump him much before he reaches a tower or simply jumps over a wall where Jax lacks vision.

If you burn Counterstrike then he'll leap out of range, and harass you on the way out. If he positions well you'll also eat all of his minion wave's aggro if you auto him after the jump. It's not that clear-cut.

I was blown away when I found that Sion actually beats Gnar in lane. I didn't think such a thing existed.

Whichever way you slice it, Gnar is a joke though. Clearly the intended weakness of not being able to control transformation hasn't worked out.

I too have been thinking of picking up Sion, but I'm too afraid of stuffing up his ult and looking like an idiot. Plus his pegleg thing annoys me.

Last random thought: How has Thresh been able to slide through for all this time? He never gets spoken about seriously, just sees a small nerf every so often. Continues to dominate the support role.

Because he doesn't really dominate that much.

He is pretty much lee sin of supp.Can do much more than most champs but doesn't just faceroll over any support and he is very loved by community in general.

At the top level, yes, he doesn't dominate that much, but in general I feel like it requires less skill for a player to be on a certain level with Thresh than say, Nami or Zyra.

Is that a problem worth spending resources to fix? I'm guessing Riot probably does not think so.

Don't agree at all.Passive supports in general are much easier to play like soraka/nami/janna(ofc can be played agressively if you are good but just staying back and not doing anything works much better with those).Thresh actually needs to do stuff to be useful in lane.

I remember few patches ago that I wished Graves to see competetive play and I guess it already happened. Now I just REALLY want Zyra to see competetive support picks. Like REALLY do.

Yeah but if the enemy has a passive support like Soraka you can do whatever the fuck you want as Thresh.
Also, in that case it's just playing not to lose, if you try to play to win vs Thresh as Sona or Zyra I still stand by my original statement.

As Thresh vs Soraka you cannot do whatever you want at all. You have to get damage on Soraka. Anything else doesn't do shit. If you hook the adc and get a great trade it doesn't matter at all because 5 seconds later he is full hp again.

Thresh vs Zyra is also a pretty tough matchup in lane if the Zyra is decent.

Dunno really don't see where this thresh power comes from lane wise.He just has really good gank assist.His actual 2v2 really isn't that strong.
