Bubble Pop on Reddit's frontpage, this is hilarious.

Anyway, ARAB always equally entertaining.

I hold a tighter leash on this subforum than the other mods with the rest of TL. So there's really low tolerance for nonsense. ^^

exactly what i thought.


weird, for some reason, I know he was active in the scene, but thought he was focusing on DotA2. I always expected a CLG DotA 2 team(that was created by them, not picked up)

Kobe24's still active, just not on any particular team. I see him on PvP.net rather often.

Man, you seem to be getting more and more angry every day. I blame the high Elo.

grr i so mad


I'm sorry Dignitas lost!

CLG had to ban out Dig every game so it's k.

TBH it felt like Dig was a 1 trick pony w/ that lulusorakakog comp.

The whole point of having a super weapon (like CLG's nidalee or shen ) is that if it's banned out, that it opens out the other team comps because then you have open bans.

Because HSGG absorbs 2 bans every single fucking game (and if not it's GG) thus opening up spots for jiji and SV, and allowing CLG to do other comps.

Dig gets soraka lulu ban, which aren't even that fucking great in a whole bunch of other comps, but then still fail their open comps.


I don't think Dig really is a 1 trick pony, but I think they had NO choice but to show their hand too early. They almost lost again MM, and then the same with CLG. Could you imagine what would happen if they could have saved that comp until the Finals? Would have been amazing. Overall, I believe them to be a solid team who just barely didn't make it this tournament. Basically, they revealed their team composition 24 hours in advance, rather than 4-6 hours they could have had. I don't think the LoL teams are all that great in adapting to change with only a few hours notice(CLG showcased this in their third match where they didn't even attempt to ban Lulu or Soroka).

Finals is CLG vs TSM

TSM, from winner's bracket, start out 1 SET ahead.

TSM needs to win 1 Bo3 to win IPL4.
CLG needs to win 2 Bo3s.


I don't like this format... the advantage is a little too big on top of which CLG already had to play 2 games today. They're going to be wiped by the end of it.


yeah. bo5 with 1 game advantage better imo. Double elimination finals with so much advantage real anticlimactic.

also DIS INTERVIEW.


I don't know. Everyone has been complaining about the extended series that MLG uses because it gives the winner bracket team a bigger advantage.

CLG can lose 2 games over sets and still win in standard double elim but they would lose in MLG extended bo7 or your 1 game advantage bo5. But this is more an issue with the game length since LoL games lasts ~3x longer on average than SC2 games.


The extended series discussion... Just imagine this scenario. There is no extended series. Team A faces Team B and wins 2:0. They meet later in the finals and loose 1:2.

Total score: 3:2 for Team A.

Team B won the tournament. Does that sound better?


If they meet in the finals in a truly double elim tournament, they would need to play another bo3 so Team B would have to go 0:2, 2:1, 2:1 to win it. I'm fine with that since a team's performance near the end of a tournament (clutch) should matter more than that whatever happens near the beginning.

Edit: I had to delete my previous post as it had some resemblance of negativity to a player, I'm thinking of something that I would be allowed to say without fear of gettin' in trubbbbleezzz

I will be happy whatever the outcome, and believe that one player will have a huge advantage over another player top lane (it's obvious as to whom I'm refering).

CLG Interview with SaintVicious


Missed the very beginning, sorry.

Travis: You know, I bumped into Regi earlier and he was like, I'd rather face Dignitas than CLG. Do you have any thoughts on it?
SaintVicious: I guess it's a track record thing where we beat them. (Chiharu: TSM lost to CLG IEM Gamescon and MLG) But we have like a 10 or 20% winrate against Dignitas? I guess it's like aAa where they beat M5, and never lose against them but they can't beat NA teams.

Travis: You have to win two sets of Bo3s against TSM in order to win IPL now. It's going to be very exhausting.
SaintVicious: Man, don't remind me haha. I gotta get some juice to get me through that!
Travis: I don't even want to know what that means...
SaintVicious: Hey man, what do you mean? Hahaha.

Travis: Anything you want to say to your fans? We have girls screaming and like. *crowd scream* You know what, actually I want to know how you're so good with the women. You have like women tweeting you all the time and like-
SaintVicious: Dude, why you reading my tweets huh? You like stalking me or like- *crowd laughs*
Travis: But they're public and-
SaintVicious: And then you tweet me like: "Hey Saint, meet me up in Room 14." *crowd laughs*
Travis: Yeah, but I just wanted an interview man.
SaintVicious: Maybe they just want interviews! Hahaha.

Travis: And do you have anything to say to your fans?
SaintVicious: I really want to thank the CLG fans. It's like, v8 no offense but like when they cheer for v8 it's like "yayyyy" but when it's CLG it's like "YEAAAAHHHH CLG" and they throw babies at us and stuff. It's crazy.

Travis: Do you have any shoutouts you want to give?
SaintVicious: Definitely want to thank Razer and Own3D. They've been sponsoring us for over a year and they've been good to us, helping us get here.



CLG Interview with HotShotNidaleeGeeGee


Travis: How are you Hotshot?
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: I'm great man!
Travis: How do you hit those spears?
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: I press Q? Hahaha.

Travis: You're up against TSM now. It's like one of the biggest rivalries in League of Legends, you guys have been rivals since the beginning. Do you ever get nervous when facing them?
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: I don't think any of us get nervous. At the beginning we used to but now we just play games and win.
Travis: This tournament we see a lot of picks at the beginning where you focus on specific champions like Kog'maw and Mundo and stuff. Do you have any thoughts about it?
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: People jump on the band wagon with tournaments. Like, Corki used to be top, now it's Kog'maw top pick. But it's just a phase.
Travis: When you stepped off the plane from Korea and you landed, you got here. Did you ever expect to make it here to the Finals?
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: I don't want to sound cocky, but I expected to be there in the top 3. I expected Dignitas to be there, I expected TSM to be there and I expected us to be there.
Travis: It always seems to be the same three teams who dominate events. Do you think there's anything in particular about it?
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: We've all been around for so long. The other teams haven't been around as much and don't have as much LAN experience as us and I think that really affects it.

Travis: You have to go through 2 Bo3s to win IPL. It's going to be a long gruelling match. Are you prepared?
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: It's going be a long series. It's kind of like an endurance run. It's so long and tiring. You gotta keep the endurance up and just get through it.

Travis: I talked to SaintV about the crowd and how they've been so great here.
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: This has been the best crowd at any event I have been to. I love you guys. I don't know about the thunder sticks though, haha.
Travis: We gave them out since we heard the GSL in SC2 was super loud. And we gave them out and then they just went nuts. They've been so loud with them.
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: Yeah. In NA we only get one thunderstick instead of two. You gotta battle it out with the person next to you haha.
Travis: The crowd has been great. The moment we asked them to turn it down they immediately did it. The production crew was like "Wow, they're so respectful."
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: Yeah! Like, thanks guys I really appreciate it.
Travis: Do you want to reward them by beating TSM then?
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: I'll try my best to do that then haha.

Travis: Any shoutouts?
HotshotNidaleeGeeGee: Shoutout to Razer and Own3D and thanks to the fans!
It's like, "Is the Federation's Mobile Suit some kind of monster?"

Why are people so kneejerk with their comments. If you don't see that Dignitas is top 3 of NA with CLG and TSM, you have blinders on. They can play more than annoying Lulu/Soraka comps.

You guys need to give teams and players more credit for where they are and how they've gotten there.

I'll agree with that. They had to play the top secret win the game stratagem far too early and honestly that's partly on them and partly on the strength of the teams they are facing. Dig had a good run nonetheless.

Dyrus and Nyat playing as one, that's hilarious.
