Naut pretty much sucks at engaging, he's better at counter-engaging and peeling (because point'n'click, buncha slows, and his passive isn't that bad if you forget that his base MS and aa animation mean he can't chase someone ever), so I see no reason to pick him to do Leona's job because she'll do it better anyway.
And if you just want peeling or kiting Janna's better too.

He's more a mix of lockdown, and "I don't want to disengage, I want to counter-engage" (plus he's got better base stats to tank stuff even though his shield is garbage till rather late now).

I can see it if his ult CD wasn't so incredibly higher than leona. The point and click aspect would be worth more if it didn't take several seconds to reach the target. He has .5 more base armor than leona...I don't think that's going to make up for Leona's 60+20%bonus Armor and MR steroid for 6 seconds.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

I think the point is he does more damage than Leona now that you can E max.

And more single target lockdown. Leona has good aoe lockdown.

I meant better stats than Janna for the "peeling" aspect, yeah. He's got nothing on Leona's W or Thresh's passive until level 18 and 2 HP items basically.

I saw a guy with 700 ranked Master Yi games. Top lane Master Yi.


I don't know whether to be impressed or shocked lol...

Cowsep likely to have more Yi games than him.

Some say he is Master Yi's himself.

Some say picking TP/Smite Yi isn't toxic.

Just caught up with that game now.

Probably more Faker playing it, but mid Vlad did go 3-0 in Korea this week.

I already know that non-Koreans are doing it because they saw Koreans do it, my question is why the Koreans did it in the first place

His synergy with the tank meta is pretty strong. He is a tank, and a decent tank buster, and can just splitpush all day against tanks.

Also I think a lot of Koreans are getting Leblanc/Xerath/Lissandra banned against them, Liss isn't good vs. tanks, Viktor is disabled, and the old T2 picks generally stink against tanks as well, so they are expanding champ pools.

There is a thread somewhere where you can pm people with an application or some such.

Oh wait, I think I misunderstood what type of staff you were asking about. lol
Sorry, I still think of this place as "TL" when I guess most people consider it LL. oops

I'm guessing Liquid(Steve) probably recommended most of them, since they are new to the league scene. To be fair to him Peter had a lot of steam behind him for the job he did with LMQ, even if you are in the camp that says hindsight shows maybe they just had got by on good individual skill in a region where that goes a long way.

So there was no application process? It was all just networking?
That seems a rather dangerous thing to do. When most mergers and acquisitions happen they usually have a review board that oversees the transfers from the previous company. Maybe eSports is still too young to develop something like that.
