People still hype him. It's the greatest denial I've ever seen.


Dude people shit talk him all the time every time he does bad. There is always someone like you to comment on it. I don't see many people (if any) saying he is the best in the world, but he is still a solid player.

Honestly it seems like there are just so many people focused on criticizing every single game he does poorly in, while not giving him any credit when he does well (and he's not the only player that has that issue). He still does have games where he carries hard and shows his skill, especially in the late game. But yeah he's not the best in the world, and probably not even best in NA though it's hard to say with supports playing such a big role.

You should try something though. Think of a good ADC you see often on a team that wins about 50% of games in the LCS. Maybe Creaton or MrRallez... whoever. Then be very critical of every time they don't play well. You will be surprised how often they seem to make stupid plays in games they are playing poorly in. It's easy to get blown up and not carry your team as an ADC.

This is the Zuna effect. Dlift is a top AD on a mediocre team. Zuna is decent too but gets so much hate. Dlift is a god and every1 knows it.


I disagree. Zuna is the opposite imo. He has great teammates. Bloodwater is a great support. Mancloud is a solid mid laner (though he got stomped today) who is often considered one of the best in NA. Benny is usually consistent and Xmithie was one of the best junglers in NA.

Zuna would consistently suicide and have poor positioning, while rarely carrying. At best he would do well along with his team with view exceptions.

Put Dlift on TSM or C9 and he will be considered a god. This is a team game not 1v1.

I just wish Nien would go to a different team so he can shine on adc again, it's sad he could be one of the best adc in NA but instead he is mired as a mid level top.


He could be in c9, but he jumped ships.

Zuna was not a decent AD on a mediocre team. His team was great and carried him every game, except for the ones where they couldn't because he'd jump in 1v4 as tristana and throw. He was a liability. I don't think anyone warrants the actual amount of hate he gets, but he certainly deserved some criticism for his play.

Whole thread was hyping CLG after game vs Dignitas, cheering for HSGG and other stuff and now are again diving into bandwagon "CLG are pure trash, Liftlift is retard, Nien is bad, other can't play this game"?

What a hypocrisy.

Pretty much, he draws so much pressure, watch c9 game against CLG. Meteo set up a nice fat tent in botlane.

When you only have 1 real threat on your team, all the enemy team has to do is just sit on your lane.

I thought it was pretty obvious the HSGG hype was sarcasm.

Because unlike MrRallez or Creaton, DLift keeps calling everyone else trash.
You cant run around shitting on other people and not get called out for it when you screw up yourself.


First off that's just part of his public personality. He does it for fun to bring more excitement and get some laughs. You can see he gets made fun of all the time on the casting desk. I still don't understand why everyone takes it so seriously.

But you know what? Despite all of that it isn't relevant at all to his skill. People take his trash talk seriously, and then use it as an excuse to call him out and shit talk him in every game he doesn't do well, when really if you try you can easily do that to anyone who is on a team that loses about half of their games.

Agreed. The thing that was especially disconcerting about Zuna is they'd put him in a 2v1 lane on Trist/Vayne as lategame insurance. Vulcun would hit lategame with everyone super fed, and a fairly well built lategame adc, and then Zuna would jump in 1v5 die and throw the game despite all the effort of Xmithie/Mancloud/Bloodwater.

EG lead is ballooning. Even though CLG farmed a lot of cs money back up, EG is really good at denying objective money.
