This has always been doublelift. It's why people know his trash talking is an act.

When Double's mad, he doesn't joke around. Thus, no trashtalk.

Mad Double is just upfront. This is what he actually thinks without instilling humor.

As a CLG fan, that was a terrible, terrible game. =(
Just so many gameplay and teamfight mistakes which make me hang my head. Starving Jiji of farm really screwed over CLG outside the last 5 minutes of that game where he just gets blown up the instant he shows his head. And he not once that I can recall used his ult offensively to initiate. And DL seems really off too, choosing to hit shen instead of the Kennen right next to him.

Thank god for Nien and his back.

Nien? It was mostly Link imo

Yeah, Link did well too. Although I think he starved jiji a bit too much for my liking. Even though he did well, I'd prefer if he made his jungler stronger while still maintaining the same performance.

Everyone who saw Nien's games today as Zac. His misplays against C9 especially are easier to see because of how well c9 capitalizes against them.

If ves doesnt get back into the LCS, I can guarantee Nk Inc will get a spot on some team. He's actually really good at making plays, he's probably one of the top junglers in the LCS, and their record doesnt give him justice.

Yep, Viktor's endgame: can't afford to drop his ult on anyone else but the carries, but lacks the range to do so efficiently against a decent frontline.
Now think about how broken Zac is, and how long-ranged Tristana and Orianna are... yup. Even if damage wasn't an issue, range and the way he relies more on the periodic damage as the game goes on compared to pure burst are Viktor's pitfalls.

I think if Riot does away with Viktor's ult moving slower the farther away it is from him he'll be strong enough to really become more mainstream.

Riot's desire to change up his hex core so all 3 cores are viable/attractive is nice, but honestly not necessary to make him powerful.

It doesn't mean much because this late in the game the AD carry usually has enough lifesteal to compensate for the periodic damage, and the shields are stronger (CDR/AP) so it's easier to deal with it. It also doesn't retract from the fact that a team splitting will effectively make his ult only get 1-2 persons in the churning.

Honestly I'd rather have Riot fix the issus with the "pet"-type controllable minions, including Shaco's ult, Morde's ghost, Tibbers and the Chaos Storm. They sometimes drop their current command entirely, or force you to spam a move command just to make sure they'll actually go there.
For Viktor in general, when you drop your ult on several targets it'll either sit there or start following one at random, which isn't very consistent, and very frustrating when your ult hits a champion and a minion wave and starts following the minion going to attack you rather than the champion running away. You can redirect it, but it can be enough for your target to get out of the AoE and your ult won't catch up unless you're super close.

Note that I don't consider it an issue to have his range hamper him so much in the late game. He's got to have weaknesses, and his big mana consumption and effective 5.5 slots are some. However, the way he works (range, insta-burst becoming poke + sustained dps as the game progress and a tanky frontline emerge on the enemy team, item timings) give him pretty clear power spikes and periods/situations where he's strong or weak. I kinda like it because it forces you to play around them when you pick him, and it's part of the champion. I'd rather have that and adapt to it, playing in a more "cerebral" way, than having faceroll dumb shit with peaking highs but no real low (Elise, Zac, etc.).
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

I think this is true, but I can't imagine which jungler gets removed.

Saint


He is too famous for that to happen unless he chooses to step down himself.

edit:
crumbzz is a lot better than people on TL give him credit for. It's dignitas lanes that are losing more than crumbzz losing games.

Saint and Crumbz are both the shot-callers for their team. Don't see either of them getting replaced unless its their decision to step down.

I can't see TOO getting replaced, he isn't the best jungler but he isn't bad either, he does what his team needs him to.
