Bjergson, as the in game shot caller (IIRC) needs to be an expert on team compositions. Because you have to be an expert on team compositions to know when and how your team can engage and you have to do that to shot call.


Yeh you might have a point. That said, when noone on the team understands team compositions properly, isn't that also the role of the coach to teach them how to play in different scenarios? Creating that knowledge might take time, but Loco has been a year at TSM.

Based on what Regi says about Bjergsen, the latter is constantly willing to learn and thus I think he is definitely open for well-reasoned arguments/analysis about teamcompositions.

Problem with bjerg is he has too much on his plate.He has to basically be the shotcaller/the carry/the emotional leader/the one who questions the coach.It isn't a coincidence his shotcalling is based around making santorin/lustboy help him mid.

clearly bjerg should let the inferior players make the calls and let has-been/never-was loco decide on comps
works in the wildly different arena of regular sports lol

Problem is who exactly is gonna shotcall if it isn't bjergsen?Let's be honest it's not like bjergsen is a good shotcaller problem is everyone else is even worse at it.

Wtf does one build on Karthus now a days? I just rolled him in ARAM.

Man those AP Itemization changes kick him when he was down. RoA nerfs make him noticeably Squishier. Without Sivir he can't even get into the back line to die without flash.

Would be sick engage though if you had a Tahm Kench on your team.


Skip Roa. Rylai's/Liandry's replaces it wholesale. He's now a lot stronger. Tear>Rylai's>Archangel's>Dcap>Liandry's or Void>Whichever you didn't get. Occasionally skip Void for Zhonya's if you need it.

Karthus is probably one of the biggest benefactor's of Liandry's now being godtier, Rylai's being a NLR item, and Seraph's giving a fuckton more AP. He's never built CDR so loved tear anyway, loves the extra health and slow of Rylai, and benefits enormously from Liandry's in any counter-engage scenario.

I thought Tear --> Rylai was the favoured Karthus build already.

So I started playing league again. Every single game I have a teammate feeding uncontrollably. What do. Feel like I'm going to be placed in bronze at this rate. Down 3 tiers!

edit: Oh guess placements don't mean that much, went silver 2, so only down a little from last season lol. Went 1-9 ROFL

either embrace it, feed harder than them, start drinking or turn into a god that can hard carry
you can pick more than one
Be nice, buy wards and don't feed double buff.

Picking all was how I got to 10 minute ARAM queue time. Stay away from picking multiple, makes you carry too hard and too often.

Oh, absolutely. Bjerg needs to be an expert to shot call. But he shouldn't be coordinating pick ban because he needs to be using that time to evaluate how to play the game.

If loco can't pick/ban he needs to be let go for someone who can.

It's kind of funny how anal Riot are about "toxic". People are assholes all the time in real life, it's a part of living yet they come up with such insane excuses for not having features based on that. The beautiful thing about online is that you can just mute the guy and never see him again where as most of the time getting rid of an asshole bothering you in real life is rather hard.

Ok guys really pls stop comparing irl and the fucking anonymous internet.If you tried to play some games with teenagers who aren't scared of getting beat up on the spot they would behave the same unless there is a specific reason they shouldn't.It isn't a coincidence tons of the people who are toxic online don't behave like that irl.

I honestly think lyte is trolling at this point and trying to see just how much of this bs people will buy.

If only you could press mute and the guy who intentionally fed the last 3 games who is on your team again stopped suiciding at the tower....But no focus on the people who write random words which are "offensive" when you can just make them go away with the press of a button.

Also let's be real most people who play a lot of videogames tend to be nerds angry at the world.Not a surprise they take it out on random people on the internet.

Riot's obsession with chat is cult-like. And let me defend gamers. They are not all nerds angry at the world, and most the time people aren't toxic. And when they are, its usually not chat related, and if it is chat related, its usually because someone else was a jerk in a non-chat way first. The people who seem angry at the world are the chat-crusaders who follow Lyte as if he was Jarvan charging into battle.

Try to get through Maokai+Nautlilus to die in their back line. lol. You die pretty much instantly then dont really do much after you die.

Thats why no one plays Karthus anymore.

You can't be a deathbot anymore. He's counterengage. Too much burst and disengage in the meta right now.

Also nobody builds Liandry's because they're stupid.

I don't think that's the right way to play him, especially when a lot of people build tanky.

Normally I rather dislike Thorin...

But I really agree with what he has to say RE: TSM drama.
