Only a small child wouldn't know that.

Think twitch chat says it best -
Formerly CLG Link here, I just wanted to say that the main problem with CLG was not me choking, but deflecting blame onto other players. Please read my 17 page document deflecting all the blame onto my team mates. Farewell! #CLGFIGHTING

Link went full Kripparian at times in that reveal.
Though it was also cool to see a look-in at times at the state of CLG. Was a much bigger of a hot mess than I thought, which is saying something.

He said "at that time I still thought I was top 3 midlaner NA". Which isn't overstatement at all. He's definitely at Hai/Pobelter level.

Is it? Lmao.
Pretty sure that every guy who cheered for CLG ever knows that this team never had strong voice since season 2, that's pretty much leitmotif of Link's rant.

Are people going Cinder or Warrior on Xin?
If you get warrior+ghostblade 42 flat armpen +your passive +max CDR (3 second cd e/q) +ghostblade active lets you chase down and kill any adc in seconds.
The problem is in most games you're one of the few melees against a team full of ranged with peelers so its better to just go cinderhulk and tank.
If the enemy is picking assassins and such its still really good, its just if they have really good protect and you dont have a team with reliable people to take some of the focus from you its not so smart.
cinderhulk+tank with max cdr will always do OK damage and you'll be quite tanky and have decent disrupt with 3 s cd knockup/slow and an aoe knockback but you won't be able to duel fed adcs or anything.

DL's response if anyone cares.

his implication about how bot lane communicates more, and therefore gets more ganks actually does make a lot of sense. but the problem still stems from poor coaching, because we have teams with shit communication with their jungler and laners due to language barriers, yet they are able to work out ganks just fine with minimum communication.

I assume Cinder, Cleaver, into full tank?
Played 4-5 games on Xin on 5.8 and while most of the time it's was fun, the scenario you painted of a team with a lot of peel really made me feel useless and wishing I had a hard CC like Sej or Rek.
I think one game was against Hec, Lee, Syndra, Rango, Sivir. It was just too hard to get a pick on either carry.

You don't even need cleaver honestly but yeah it's pretty good probably

Switching from my beloved CLG icon for a little bit because I actually really like the NME logo, and jerseys. I'll be back soon enough though because I hate myself.

Eh, Dlift has been the constant factor in the losing CLG organization. He's certainly not the only one to blame, but his ego is too big for his britches. The only one who was able of stemming that was Chauster I think, by being more berating and belittling than Dlift himself.
All in all, CLG should have a coach who has power over Dlift. As in Dlift is in danger of losing his job if he fucks the team.
The Peter Peng that absolutely had to play well or he'd be homeless is gone.

It's his last split anyway, you'd imagine that he's going to try his ass out one last time, just for sake of pride.

Link seriously fucked up most possibility of landing another team, you don't do huge expose/complain blog type shit and throw a temper tantrum by revealing inner workings of team/bad mouthing people you don't like. NA is super nepotism zone though so maybe he'll still have a shot in some challenger team.
I've been seeing more Xin I'll have to try it, what are people's thoughts on Sej/Grag/Rek? Even with the cinderhulk change it seems like they'll be perfectly fine to keep spamming.
He's done anyway, he wrote it in blog and going back to Berkeley.

While the nerf to the AOE sucks, in the end Cinderhulk is doing the job it always should: Give jungle tanks more gold efficiency with a bit of damage to aid ganks and clears.

For anyone interested, Unyielding works on every single tick of a DoT, tested it with Malefic Visions and it reduced its damage by 16.

Link's post was just someone finally venting after getting so much shit.No wonder it is mega salty and completely ignores what he did wrong.
Isn't that common knowledge since when it was introduced champs like gp/teemo/w.e became weaker in lane?
