Yusui was probably the the source himself because Jacob Wolf seemed to have a boner for him during the incarnation tryouts and leaked the story to try and force riot to lower the punishment.

He's lucky Riot hates Daily Dot and was willing to reduce the punishment just to prove them wrong.

Richard Lewis saving esports.

Besides the RL nonsense, how is a lenient decision here good for esports? You are defending a guy that constantly resets his Elo so that he is able to play against low Elo opponents and stomp them. The goal is to get close to 100% win rate. So in the process he has created hundreds of completely uncompetetive ladder games with predetermined results. Other players lost or gained Elo randomly, depending on which side Yusui was one. They have no impact on how their Elo changes. What Yusui did was the exact opposite of saving esports, he made ladder games a sham.

Honestly it bugs me so much that people dont understand that this kind of smurfing is just as detrimental to the competetive integrity of the ladder as boosted players or purpose feeding.

Toplaner went to being Dignitas savior, jungler is posterboy of LSPL, midlaner became best toplaner in the Western world, adc just 2-0'd EDG and support won OGN.

Rip Samsung Red, world wasn't ready.

its because people know how the ladder actually works so dont view it as something with integrity

So why do they complain then about feeders, scripters, trolls, boosted people and basically anything you can think of but not about smurfs?

same thing said for the ladder could be said for the na lcs to some degree. but it's obviously riot's interest to maintain 'competitive integrity' etc and there's not much to get agitated about either way.

So there's been a lot of subtweeting about some EUCS drama, from what I can gather it seems to involve ex nihlo and probably CWA?

The drama is apparently not about ex-Nihilio / Alicus.

Ex nihlo to pick up CWA. I assume this is the controversy they were talking about

Anyways interesting quote in the article:
There is also a clause in Doornenbal’s contract that he has to be allowed to join Elements if a trial with the LCS organization is successful following poor performances from their newly acquired support player, Hampus "PromisQ" Abrahamsson.

Some confirmation for Hybrid tryouts:



On a second thought, maybe that is just a reaction to the article and no independent information.
