Fml.
3.14 only came out a few days ago, iirc, clg left for iem at the beginning of the week.
Liftlift played a shitton of the riot-inhouse patchtest thing. Dunno bout the rest.
yeah im sorry but playtesting a beta-patch test is not "practice" compared to actual scrims with your team on the live servers.
Lol why are we talking about practice? It would take 6 months for CLG to even think about getting to Fnatic's level. Nien and TrickZ still have a LONG, LONG, LONG ways to go as individual players.

Come on guys, new team. They need time to get together it might take them a whole split to finally put the pieces together then you know they'll become a cohesive unit.

Thats what we always say about every new CLG team. But its not just teamplay and 'gelling', they just do not cut it lane wise vs. good teams. Teamplay cant fix that.

It was mostly a jab at how they always say "we need time to work as a team" and then changing it again.
I wonder how much money Riot would make if they played commercials like these during downtimes in LCS regularly. Wouldn't be too bad, if they put a countdown in the corner and a small banner with the upcoming matchup?
Sad thing is I think he really believed that. Not necessarily that they were going to crush Fnatic, but that they could win. Hilarious what stomping terribles in scrims can do for your confidence.

Well seeing as the last thing that managed to get advertising on LCS was goddamn pacific rim it probably isn't cheap.

I don't know fanboys see what they want. I don't see how you can expect CLG to be on par with fnatic after just forming lol. That's huge disrespect for fnatic.
CLG's biggest problem is that doublelift has no map awareness at all and if the enemy team concentrates on him the rest of the team is unable to capitalize on the lack of pressure.
