SBENU dropped its sponsorship of the SC2 team amid their financial issues, will still keep sponsoring the LoL team for now but who knows what's going on with them.


SBENU.LoL is in an even weirder spot than SBENU.SC2. Their LoL team is the spirit of Prime and their SC2 team is startale. And only one of those things still exist

Welp kinda late but I'm coaching Apex Gaming in the next NA challenger split. The roster is Keane(former GV player), Eve (former Samsung jungler), Cris(former cst), Xpecial (former TL), and Police (Former Ever)

Our roster will also be joined by Shrimp(former CST) and Bliss(former Samsung) as assistant coach.

Will have more formal announcement later but thought I'd let you guys know :D

More NA challenger things -

Dream Team acquires the Astral Authority spot, featuring Chorong (top), Shernfire (jungle), Pekin Woof (mid), DoubleG (ADC) and an unannounced support:


Enemy announces 2015 Spring NACS roster, featuring iKennyU (top), Obvious (jungle), Wolfe (mid), Otter (ADC) and Trance (support):


Probably will be the bottom 2 NACS teams as things stand.

Uhh..Dardoch hype? I mean I'd rather see him get the LCS spot than IWD so that's pretty cool but it just feels so sudden

Man, that's rough for TLA that Dom is only playing one week. Grigne or Zary are probably the best domestic options, but both are definitely a step down from IWD or Dardoch.

EDIT: Actually, Porpoise would be a great fit. Completely forgot about him.

they have an import slot, but this timing is pretty shitty to try to find FAs of any kind.

Why does Clerkie have such a hard-on for Danish junglers, is the NA jungle talent really THAT bad that they have to go for Obvious?

Obvious is better than most junglers in LCS, let alone Hairyabs/Grigne/etc.

I by no means think that Obvious is a terrible jungler might have come off like that I am pretty fond of him to be honest and I literally have no clue about NA challenger scene right now, all my knowledge is like 2013/2014 ish and a lot have changed since then.

http://en.intelextrememasters.com/news/introducing-the-teams-and-format-for-the-league-of-legends-intel-extreme-masters-world-championship/

Don't even wanna create a new thread for this, but Origen/CLG/QG/ESC Ever will be joined by NA/EU/CN/KR invitees at the IEM Season X World Championship, same format as always.

LMS now is demoted to play only at World Championship and MSI, thanks a lot, Riot and ESL.

God bless that Ansibled exists, but still worth mentioning it in this thread.

The 3 best NA challenger junglers got picked up by LCS teams in the off-season, talent pool isn't that deep and Obvious is good.

Surely it's not the performance problem, wtf. :<

You can't simply kick someone after ONE week, when your toplaner has solokilled ZionSpartan 2-3 times and you lost to NRG only because Viktor was able to steal 2 Barons. Even though he was kinda subpar against NRG.

Probably either visa or he legitimately killed Innerflame.

I'm still kinda baffled though that Dig says that they're going to give explanation on Monday, like, what.
