Last call for MyM if they wish to stay in LCS.

No Darker this week @ LCS EU for gambit his comment from reddit:
Hi guys, sadly i cant help my team this week despite its very important for us to do well there. My health needs to recover right now actually, jet lag too stronk, last 7h + 2h flight wasn't good for me at all... I just know i wont perform well enough with current situation and have to visit clinic in next days while my team will play LCS matches.
About me and Genja - well i can only admit that our situation is pretty bad atm, our duo bot synergy is very very weak right now. Watching some better duo lanes like SK's or C9 from NA makes me kinda jelly, but its me being the problem most likely. Lately i dont really understand what Genja does and how he plays and thats why i couldnt act \ respond correctly myself, since Genja isnt a talking person at all it makes solving our problems even harder. Understanding and communicating in duo lane is really important thing and i personally cant enjoy playing without that. So after this LCS week we will do our best to fix that if not i prob gonna find team that will fit me better and genja gonna find ideal support for himself.
pretty disturbing for the Gambit gaming bot lane.
|
Intresting, i am starting to get curious about that Genja personality now  Or what's lacking of it ^^
Honestly i was suprised how fast darker addapted just looking from the outside of it, for Gambit i hope they work it out between the 2 with the last weeks coming you really dont want another new guy adjusting.

Not that I'm taking what Darker says entirely for face value but it does seem like he's trying his hardest and once again, Genja's lack of communication seems to be the underlying problem. This completely falls in line with what EDward said about the team after moving to Curse.
Now I don't doubt that Gambit is still one of the best EU teams but it seems these small things will have an impact come Worlds, where teams have little room for error, much less a communication one.

Yup sounds like Gambit is in trouble. Darker and arguably Genja are not the strongest playest in the first place. With added communication problems things are looking bad.
Ideal solution would have probably been to exchange Genja for example for Freeze who was still available back then, and keep Edward. But who knows what exactly was going on in the team. And Gambit is very restricted if they only want Russian speaking players.

Well 3rd is going to get EG/SK/MYM while below that will probably NiP/Gambit/Lemonpups so 3rd seed is nice to get.

Considering how eu scene is right now, I'd say they're all around the same skill level, so even the bracket setup is sort of a crap shoot.

After watching some more games of Shacker I have to say I dont expect too much from him. Actually, I think Snoopeh might even be better. Shacker is still lacking experience and plays way too risky.
If EG loses both games I am sure Snoopeh will be back. Not sure what happens if they do better though.
Excited for MIMER on NiP though. At least they are able to pick up the really good guys.

I am sure you have seen way more then i have, but to me he gained alot of respect from how he played this first game, for a big crowd and with a new team who he only just joined.
Risky oh yes, but refreshing to see from a team like EG, i hope he mixes well and even if his play is not that good atleast offers another view on how to jungle to Snoopeh.

What... I have not watched LCS a lot lately but last I saw Krepo was known for his Thresh and was sometimes even banned against him.

Froggen plays Kassadin? o.O

Aatrox jungle. Hmm, a pretty random pick there, can't remember even seeing it too often on streams - he's almost always played top..

12sec CD Malph ult on Aatrox's Q tho

Interesting info that Froggen exclusively played Twitch on his smurf. Still EG does the double teleport malph/kass again. Worked well last time.
|
Kind of strange that Ryze didn't take TP when EG have ran this exact strat before with the Double TPs.
|
EG went throw the early laning phase alright with the weaker laning setup. Looking good for them imo.
|
I thought NiP couldn't change their lineup anymore ?

2 flash 2 ult for nothing.. oo NiP not looking really good so far

yep Malphite+Kass will wreck teamfights, doesn't matter if NiP is 2k gold ahead mainly thx for tf passive.

Does anyone know how much the TF passive actually give? Are EG ahead in gold if not for that TF passive?

Kassadin with most gold in the game. Froggen really needs to do something with this.

+2 gold per cs
Roughly 1,300 gold at this point, so pretty significant.

2 gold per cs. Add NiP's CS together, multiply it by two.
Google would've worked...

Froggen on assassins. He's just not as good at it as he is with farmers like Lux+Anivia. (Granted Lux can be assassin-esque, but isn't really the same when it isn't all-in..)

I'm not referring to his farm. His teamfight impact isn't as high as it is when he plays Lux+Anivia. The only assassin he ever managed to have huge impact with was his Lee Sin mid against Fnatic.
He's doing better now, but he doesn't play Zed, doesn't play Kha'zix, Diana. When he has played them, it has been underwhelming, and it's a huge shortcoming in EG's play, imo. :p

He completely zoned Yellowpete from that fight just now, and is building the standard jungle items in a comp that needs that frontline tank. It's honestly fine, he's like a mini-malphite-jungle.

Yes.

Are people questioning Froggen's Kassadin? This play looks super clean to me from him.

Froggen really has to play more ballsy. He is not doing much with his impressive items.

The thing is if you wanne build tanky there are a lot of better junglers to pick then Aatrox. The items on him are not bad on there own but Aatrox doesnt have absurd base damge and limited utility with only his jump. Hes not a good champion to build that on.

His jungle is pretty strong and his ganks are not bad at all with his jump and slow. However he needs to build damage. Not tank like NiP is doing.

Yea that's what I'm thinking too. Most junglers these days except for like eve have to build tanky and there are simply better champs who do more with tank items than aatrox.

Not sure if Shacker is playing bad, or its just his role to die like that in teamfights. Pretty much zero impact in this game.

I think it might just be the Xin pic - I just don't know what Xin can do in this game. He can dive, but get blown up. NiP isn't going to dive outside of Malunoo, so his ult is pretty useless. He's pretty much a meatshield/Aegis holder/designated smiter
|
Shacker what u thinking man
|
Just when they had an opening ...
|
Froggen getting so much farm now with full items. :D
|
Too bad there's no AP item with Tenacity. Froggen could definitely ditch the boots if there were.
|
Pfff what a horrible game, between 2 teams to scared to make calls.
|
god like play from Freeze so far!
|
This game is 100% dependent on how well Wickd lands his ult.
or EG can run in one at a time...
|
lol wtf EG just go in and die 1 by 1
|
Just tuned in for the eg throws lol
|
Krepo and Froggen are playing great. The rest of the team...ehh not so much.
|
I've decided to paddle back on the blind EG and SK hate but frankly I have no idea why(e:how) they just don't steamroll NiP with this comp and a 6 item Kassadin. Shacker so useless 4v6 dude

Honestly right now, I feel like EU is showing better mechanical skill than NA, but teams looking like they have no idea what they're doing strategically. Games like this get to 50 minutes, one team throws, and there's a winner. Honestly that's why the standings are so close -- it's just so random what happens when games get close to 1 hour.

Games like this get to 50 minutes, one team throws, and there's a winner. Honestly that's why the standings are so close -- it's just so random what happens when games get close to 1 hour.
Most games have been stomps, not like this one at all.
|
Oh wow they even got a site dedicated to it, impressive !
|
|
|
I find myself swearing more watching League than watching my mediocre-at-best football team.
|
I kinda enjoyed the tension and suspense of the 20 minutes of back and forth posturing. Like both teams made attempts to commit instead of a complete stallfest.

Yeah like I mean Froggen's Kassadin >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Scarra's Kassadin (only one example). But holy god do they lack killer instinct - they had 6 Item Kassadin - 5 Item Malphite and they just derped at baron when all they had to do was execute one good teamfight with hugely fed great lategame team. But nope.

I feel like it's been both. Yes, there have been a lot of stomps where the gold disparity makes it so that one team can do anything. But if a game is close at 20:00, generally the game is not much closer to being over at 40:00, and the game is still close. Honestly, aTn is doing well because Forellenlord is ballsy enough to go and make plays in the midgame. I can't remember the last time I saw a game where one team took a decisive strategic advantage in the midgame in an otherwise close game.

They went to Baron, got Destiny'd, went B and then NiP started Baron, and the EG members came in one at a time under Baron, 3 died, then NiP pushed mid and won before the EG guys respawned.

Man my stream died so I came back upstairs. I thought EG were going to do it easily wtf.

If the next EG game is similar I think it is over for Shacker. Not saying he did really bad, but he has to play well to keep Snoopeh away.

Oh, I suck at reading. GG.

I fell asleep to see that EG lost. How the ...
They had good initation with Malph + Shacker, but the damage was never following.
|
I really feel like quite a few of the teams, especially in EU LCS just hesitate too much to dive. When there's someone with 200+ armor and 3000+ health, a early dive isn't that risky when:
1. You have a decent lead
2. Waves are pushed preventing any objectives being taken supposing it's a evenish team fight
3. People are likely to be split to defend against multiple pushed waves
I feel like C9 is one of the only teams in the LCS that does diving properly in this sense and it allows them to finish games off without any chance of one dumb team fight or positioning error in late game deciding the game.

I don't think followup damage was a problem, they did win basically every teamfight after all, they just instantly backed every time they won.

Yeah pressure is just extremely high, so teams are scared to lose. Especially true for a team like EG that is still lacking confidence. Imo confidence is one of the most important factors in LoL.

Dunno man in his reddit thread he has stated quite a few times that genja and him don't work well together and that Diamond and Alex make almost all the decisions during pick/bans so from his point of view it doesn't seem like genja is the "mastermind" like Diamond said in his fb post after allstars, I doubt D4rker will stay as long as edward, especially if they fail to qualify for worlds.

Darien doing some dirty farming haha That deman.

It's by far his fav champion wich he can even play at top. He often goes support on his stream aswell only ever picking blitzcrank, and when he goes duo with Rekkles on ladder it's just scary to watch.

So Genja just plays every ADC as an AD caster. It didn't click til I saw him doing this shit on Varus - he stacks AD, ignores the AA enhancing stats like crit/attack speed and focuses on poke skills. It made a lot of sense on MF when ADCs were super weak at the start of S3. On Other ADCs... meh.
What makes it weirder is that Gambit doesn't actually build around this paradigm. Genja goes out and free farms and stays away from fights. If they play him like that, then he should be building doublelift style for a late game AA powerhouse. With the Caster builds Genja rocks he needs to be grouped up with the team midgame and ceding the CS to Alex/Darien but poking down the enemy teams to set Gambit up for objectives.

I don't understand why you all think the BT on Ashe is so bad. His whole plan is to spam volley while kiting, and volley scales with ad, but not with crit. It does make sense with this kite comp in my opinion.
Edit: Same reasoning for him getting tear, but not manamune.

Who thinks BT is bad? The tear is questionable and he seems to do that on every AD he plays. Spamming volley is meaningless when your team needs you to actually do damage. Hell just give him the blue then.

Just check the last page for posts like "BT Ashe. Worse than karma jungle".
Tear is primarily for mana i think. You can't spam volley too long without a mana item.

People dislike it because he just builds without thinking about damage and only utility.Spamming volley is fine if you have another character on your team who does physical damage but when you don't enemy team just gets mr and you auto lose.This works on varus with bt/lw because he has very high base damage and his w gives him a lot of damage as well.

I dislike it mainly for he even builds it if he's far behind his oposition, it just makes no sense to punish yourself and your team even more with 0 damage early and mid game.

I don't even get why he does this build utility wise, he gets less farm than sneakycastro's ashe yet is always 40 times less useful than castro is for C9.
Even for volley spamming it's not that much better than standard.

Fnatic picked really smart vs Gambit's kite comp. Lissandra, Blitz, and Shen forces hard engages that's hard to get out off. Aatrox then slows everyone down once the fight starts.
|
If he wants really to volley spam he needs CDR boots, Bruta, maybe SotL to do extra damage when poking and more CDR, etc... Or just pick Varus.

The Vi ult was a complete waste though, he should have known FL still had a dash... Kerp gonna carry anyway.
Edit: as I write that, he 1v2s MyM's botlane

FL is doing really well as well, he had a rough lane but is 3/1 already.

Every time one of those karthus ults hits with 5 ap at 18 minutes a part of me dies.

Damn, MYM is getting destroyed.

And the free fall of MYM goes on. Getting a fizz without ignite is asking for trouble, specialy if you don't make use of that teleport either.

I have to say, I'm pleasantly surprised at how effective Kerp's Khazix is.

He did get an early kill from it in bot lane, FWIW.

had to use the flash for it, but sure he did. With ignite he'd still had flash to play with.

Yeah I remember when he played the first Mundo ever since ages. They lost against CLG.eu and everybody laughed about the pick. Fast forward a month, everybody was playing Mundo.

Interesting comment from Aranae about not falling for the TP bait. That 4 MYM dive at bottom lane that Alternate were ready for probably happened because of that.

Dunno why you call Oce the only regular EU TF, but if he plays it more than others (which I doubt though) then only because his opponents dont rate it this highly. Because TF is picked/banned every single EU LCS game.

I just looked up zorozero's team history on leaguepedia. He only started playing on competitive teams since December last year on pretty much lemondogs. Man how does someone so good under the radar for so long.
|
î dont get it wha they nerf ryze's range. He is still squishy and has to go near his enemys and gets blown up. I think if the nerf happens then we no longer see ryze in lcs or compoetitvie play.
|
Kind of an interesting build from zorozero with Visage as his third item. It's a cool alternative to FH against magic teams.
Not much benefit from the healing bonus (I guess helps during his ult) but I like it.
|
|
|
Fnatic vs. Lemondogs and SK vs. EG tomorrow, we are guaranteed at least a 5 game spread between the top and the relegation line. Finally some definition to the table.

Its pretty standard nowadays. More heal during his ult is rly good because that is the only time he needs it anyway.

SK and EG seem to be the two teams who will fight for the precious 6th place, which makes their match tomorrow really important.

While the standings are very close indeed, I hardly see any flashy gameplay anymore.. Either it's huge fuckups by one team or it's a stalemate with half an hour of barondancing. The games just don't seem to be as smooth as they were in the spring split.. perhaps this is just me getting a LoL overdose though haha :p

The thing is, being able to finish games is a necessary skill for any high level team, and fear is something that is limiting many. People usually have no trouble diving under the outer turrets with just a number advantage (2v1, 3v1), even when they are behind, but for some reason, the closer they get to the base, the more hesitant they are to dive even if they do have a a sizable gold advantage. For some reason, people have an idea that you simply have to wait for a positioning mistake to catch someone or you have to win a very decisive teamfight for an objective such as Baron to finish the game. Newsflash, some teams will just farm it up till late game when none of that matters, so then the story of the game becomes who can make one mistake first.
I'm not very good by all means just watching streams and never really playing, but a dive at the inhibitor turrets isn't really risky when you ensure that the other waves are pushed, have vision/knowledge of the other team, and you have a decent lead. If your composition is not suited to diving/teamfighting, you have to split push properly with good communication and sending people to the right lanes to get the turrets + inhib which will THEN allow you to get other objectives safely/with little or no contest due to a gold advantage.

The level of play is surely higher than in the spring split. It is always increasing, basically per default. Which is why the old teams are having more and more problems. And just yesterday there were quite a few flashy plays.

the NiP EG game was close as hell until the game deciding fight. It might not have been the flashiest game, but the tension was pretty damn high.

Hey look at this...I'm caring about EU LCS again for more than NiP.

Hoping for Jungle Karma again! several pros on twitter ( soaz, hyrqbot, Ocelote) said that Diamond actually practiced it a ton and I want to see it without getting shutdown lvl 2 already.
|
I want to see it working so that I can play it in soloQ after, saying it's legit.
|
Aatrox/udyr bans.Eu lcs meta sure is different

Gambit went on to ban the OP shit so ATN could go for targeted bans only. Not sur how I like the Blitz pick, Jree isn't that good with him
Edit: Araneae looks so stressed wow

WOOT you better not mess with that bad ass referee

Wouldn't be eu lcs without a delay.

I didn't realize until this game that Karma is indeed very strong for pushing turrets 3v1/3v2.

Karma has amazing utility. The empowered E is huge in teamfights. It's just these days Mid laners always have to be carrying so having pure utility isn't that great.

I can see a lot of similarities between Karma's slow/utility and Voli/Nasus. But she doesn't itemize tanky, which is my main concern.

Yes, failing with Lee Sin and Nunu is the real trademark of a professional player.

Okay, sorry Jree, you can do it nice.

I think Karma jungle could work because it brings so much utility and she pushes really well, however I feel that is wasted with two melee solo laners who can't hit turrets. Prove me wrong Gambit!

I don't understand what you mean? not being as good as your opponent and not using the choices at your disposal to help with a victory are two completely different things unless you mean something different?
|
I like Vi as a skirmisher or as the jungler in a pick comp, but she isn't a great teamfight champ in my opinion - not tanky enough and doesn't bring utility outside of her ult.
|
Renekton (not especially Darien's) is such a beast in the midgame, it's a pity he doesn't see a lot more play.
|
|
|
Darien is an absolute beast with the crocodile wow
|
Vi is such a cool champ, but I kinda fail to see what the point is of picking her over Jarvan :/

I'm actually suprised people don't use Vi for lane swaps, I think she brings a lot to the table with levels/farm and she has decent tools for 1v2 (waveclear/shield/dash) if you transition her to empty lane farm it could get her to critical mass faster similar to Ryze's rise to popularity.

I agree that you should pick completely broken champs (pre-nerf Eve, pre-nerf Diana, pre-nerf Olaf, etc), but I highly disagree picking good champions (Nunu, Lee) you suck with, instead of playing champs that you are more comfortable or better with. Yes, Insec should play Lee Sin, he's trully feeling him and can utilize all of his strengths, but if you can't even land a Q, then why not pick something you can actually play with? Vi is a pretty good all-around jungler, but in NA, pro players rather do terrible with Nunu (except Meteos, but he's from C9, so let's not mash him up with the rest of the NA scene), which I just can't understand.

mantra-ed shield and link have really insane values for the heal and shield which makes karma unexpectedly good at baiting and being a frontline. but I feel karma may be a better offlaner than jungle.

honestly if they copy this build (and don't go deathcap or something stupid) it has potential even at low skill levels.

Once I asked a 0-3 blue ez wannabe, why does he have a spirit stone, a tear againts a 2 dorans, longsowrd, berserkers MF. He said i'm a noob, because I don't know blue EZ, which all the pros use. I can never get back those League Points.

Not really, first teamfight at dragon whiteknight mispositioned himself and was unable to do any damage, 2nd teamfight top he ran into 4 Gambit members to chase Diamond and exploded, and now he died before the teamfight even started.

Alex just flashed while in Liss ulti. Is that meant to happen?

Genja was so late to that fight, still won!

Some days I think Gambit just flip a coin before a game
Heads - Best team in EU
Tails - Mindblowingly awful play, builds and decision-making

I wonder if this game would have been different if Kerp went sorc boots and haunting guise.

I don't know what's funnier; Karma beasting it up, or the coming karma bans againts Gambit. Just imagine the bans vs Gambit: Aatrox, Udyr, Karma - lol. Maybe dorans blade Annie instead of Aatrox, since he's becoming popular.

I'm not even worried about Gambit during the regular season anymore, I just tell myself that they try out shit but when it comes to the Playoff events where huge $$$ is on the line I hope the Russian beast shows up.

That's just how Russians are I rate. Navi are same thing. They looked terrible coming into TI2 then defeat the team that was playing seemingly perfect Dota and eventually coming 2nd place.

Alternate really need to improve their drafting, yet another game where they could not teamfight due to not having any damage

Figured it out, diamond is repenting for his past BM by saving the community from the two biggest troll picks, karma and heimerdonger jungle and making them legit and therefore stopping them.
Heimerdonger diamond coming soon.

Yeah I generally don't worry about Gambit either - I think with their travel schedule they simply don't give a crap about LCS regular season, in fact I think they'd be happier to qualify as the CIS team and just beat the crap out of the Rest of the World Teams at Gamescom.
I still remember IEM Katowice where they lost to Curse in the group stage and fluked through on a tiebreaker. Pretty much everyone wrote them off. The next day they went 4-0 against Blaze and Frost. Consistency...how does it work?

Honestly, Karma wasn't anything compared to the beast that Renekton was, especially with the team composition of Alternate. They had a comp to pick off out of position squishy targets, but Kassadin can just rift walk away if hooked and by grabbing a fed croc, it was a free initiate for Gambit. Alternate's comp had pretty much no damage except Graves which was useless against Gambit's comp.

Also Gambit play a best of 3/5 way better then a bo1. I am not worried at all either they again will be strong when big money is on the line at the finals.

Agreed, don't know how they planned to have enough damage with their comp, Liss and Graves just don't output enough.

well Ara plays recklessly and likes to cause disruption and chaos over killing so you see him build full tank on everyone. I'd trust Kerp to dish out more damage even if his champ is less optimized for it.

Would be a big slap in the face if EU managed to win with lacking preperation vs a big bootcamp on NA side.
NA deserved to win because they practiced for it, nothing to do with language EU just did not bother to prepare.

This has been the most fun week for EU LCS. Normally it's pretty boring with one sided games. Even though games haven't been any less one sided it's still more interesting when they are one sided with crazy picks.
|
Dat counterpick. But Talon is basically a substitute for Zed in function and role.
|
I assume Talon was picked after Kassadin?
|
dblade open Talon, what a MAN
talon was last pick for purple (last pick overall) double melee ap gives him 2 strong lane options, basically if he can avoid the adc lane he's in good shape.
|
I don't know if I want Talon to win or not. I am ok with the rise of Karma jugnles, but going againts Talons every game... oh god.

his waveclear is significantly safer than Fizz, he can also use his escape to do damage w/o putting himself in extreme danger.

Report mid, doesnt follow.

Back in the day we went gp/ire and such bruisers vs kassa.It makes a lot more sense than a squishy assassin that is countered by silence.
|
From the way guys were talking I thought it was going to be like that time Alex fed so hard as TF vs Fizz.
|
Fnatic forces Caitlyn/Lulu Flash at level 1, does no attempt at follow that up. Relatively dull game.

at least myself, and I assume others, were just exited to see a "cool" pick

Lemon Dogs please end soon, I have an XCOM rp video to watch.
|
Everytime Dexter goes in I freak out and insult him. Then I remember that they have Kennen, Cait and Talon, FNC can only kill Dexter and one of their 3 other damage dealer before being overwhelmed. Pretty good game from lemondogs.
|
The problem of picking gragas as an answer to Kennen's ulti, is more often than naught, if you use your ulti as disengage, you're probably only going to be hitting only kennen with your ulti; which makes your ulti do a lot less damage since only hitting one person.

I really like the Talon here, but you really need more than him and the ADC as source of damage or risk losing talon from a focus fire cc chain on him and having no damage to kill anyone after that.
Really solid play by LD, they don't look that confident and made the game last long but atleast they didn't throw.

Talon played sorta like a reverse assasin, getting everyone low with his AoE burst and Cait cleaning up.

talon picking up 3 kills in that dragon fight was the start of fnatic's doom. dragon after 20 minutes isn't worth forcing fights over...

And thus here we come to the match likely to determine who scrapes into the playoff. Hard to believe that just a year ago this decided who would go to the world finals.

Well getting to the playoffs is about getting to the world finals, so this is not much different. Going from 3/4 to 6/7 within a year is not really hard to believe.

Well EG at one stage were going toe to toe with Frost for OGN finals. Guess it's more Koreas crazy growth than anything else.

That's cuz the American and European teams in while playing when they win stuff they usually go partying and stuff they go see a lot of movies go to entertainment parks a lot. Do a lot of other stuff together. While Koreans usually only practice and eat together, they have a real boot camp going on. The American and European teams don't.

Also growth in NA and EU though. If the old teams dont improve enough, they slowly get pushed to the bottom. If all the old teams stayed at the top, it would be an indication of lacking growth.
Korea grew much more of course.

I am curious if EG leaves TF open. Might be a good idea.

That's pretty standard Udyr.

Aaah I love LemonDogs. They actually play some odd champions, which for me makes games 50% more interesting just for that. Apart from that, their games are exiting, fun nailbiters. Love em!

Even with phoenix going utility I think is standard. The tiger udyr with dorans is something like 14/3/13. Huge early game burst damage. Then if you building pure tank you can put points in E instead of W for MS.

How is Ocelote still on SK, after sooo many line up changes last season they sure are slow changing him

Hotshot stepped down. Bigfat also had lots of fans at the time he left clg. Chaox was a pillar in TSM. Snoopeh is still team captain of EG

That was still a pretty great game. Pete carrying EG isn't something I really expected to see
Not taking anything away from Froggen, he dominated the early to midgame. If he had followed up on Wicked instead of Shaker under the middle inner turret the game would have been over then.

Had they not stumbled and played like piss yesterday i would have actualy believed it.

Surprised some recommend this, normally I am the one to defend EG or SK games. :D
But it was really obvious that both teams were scared. The problem is, they are in a situation where they can only lose and not really win. Because all they want is to get out of bottom 2, which even if achieved would not be that great.
One can also see it in the post game reactions, it is mainly relief to not have lost, instead of joy over winning.

While EG is doing team practise, and outside of that, he is chaining soloq games like mad. Might be 12 hours a day. And he never did that before in that fashion. Pretty sure he still plans to play a role this season. Beyond that maybe not.

Why would Snoopy step down and part time jungle if not because he wants to spend less time on the game and allow the team to prepare for him retiring?
If Snoopy really doesnt wanne play anymore they keep Shacker until they find someone who is better and if Snoopy is willing to play/practice full time they can get rid of Shacker.

Because they are desperate for victories, right now. And he was indeed not doing well. If they dont make top 6, his future plans for this season dont matter anyway.
As I said before, he plays as much as I have never seen from him.

Guess I just dont get EG then I would hardly call Snoopy the big fault with there team but thats another discussion.
Anyway NiP Aatrox. what are the odds he will go full tank again and be utterly useless?

rofl Jarvan cockblocked fiddle's ult so hard ahahah
|
czaru with the ahri plays
|
NiP playing horrible.
|
I really hate the gragas pick
|
NiP with the full derp. Back to SC2 Redbull Finals
|
That was a brutal EQ by J4. NIP just melted there
|
Not sold on this jungle Aatrox
|
In true NiP style, they fall behind early and then they just sit around and fall further and further behind hoping for a massive throw late game... sigh
|
I really wish J4s would cancel their cataclysm so other people can come in, fiddle's ult hit 0 people cause of this J4 zzz

I really dont understand why you would ever pick Aatrox when your going for a full tank jungeler. He needs to build damage. Just select any tank jungeler ><

It is supposed to be a replacement for the banned Zac. Tanky, revive and some CC with initiation. I agree that it does not completely fill the shoes of Zac though.

90% of Zac's CC/initiate comes from his ult tho while Aatrox only has a jump and an unreliable slow (its travel speed is to slow). Its imo a terrible substitute.

Aatrox's Q is no Elastic Slingshot.

In EU some teams really need to change from their comfort champions and see evry match as individual. So many times they keep piking their comfort champions.... like the aatrox etc.

No but i see a similar thing happen in NA. "Dont change winning teamcomp" and that is how curse "lost" and now Nip is doing it in the jungle. Its so much easier to counter teams who are doing this and the top teams got such a diverse champion pool that it doesnt happen or let them pick the "op" champs (wink wink ocelote).
The comment was not really focused on the top teams in LCS, but the teams that are struggling now.

Looking at the recommended games.
Pretty disappointed by the Alternate vs Fnatic game. Too tired to appreciate what the Karma pick brought to them (especially the "how did she fare in the jungle"), but the game was basically Alternate with a pick comp throwing a teamfight and then Gambit's better scaling and teamfighting letting them easily roll every single subsequent teamfight thanks to the momentum, till the game was finished. Rather anti-climactic in how it occurred.
LD vs Fnatic became much more interesting when I realised that the game wasn't about the picks, but the way LD "buried" themselves into their need to get good flanks or force Fnatic with their backs against a wall to pick good fights, and how the teams were trying to maneuver around this.
SK vs EG was uninteresting, not sure why it was recommended. :/ Several huge blunders by Candypanda and SK were never in a position to contest anything.

People are to much supporter of there fav team then instead of actualy looking at the game and what to think of it.
My team lost ! So thats a big. Vote NO.
My team won ! They are gods. Vote YES.
My team didn't play ! /care. Vote if you have time.
That's about the 3 options i keep on seeing, when a populair team wins or loses.
