Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy seeing HSGG out there again, but isn't this pretty bad for Link? When Dexter comes back he's not going to have a lot of time to adjust to being an LCS level midlaner again. I understand he's a great player and it's not like he'll forget to midlane, but mentally that has to be a pretty big shift when you're up on stage, and you haven't had a chance to play real professional games against Bjergsen, Hai, Scarra, etc for a few weeks.

Of course this is going to be terrible for CLG. It's so much time where their starting five don't have the opportunity to play together. It's pretty much a train wreck if you consider TSM was able to get Bjergsen over with no problems and the same with EG with not one or two but three Europeans.

Link is playing 95% mid in soloqueue, seems like. So i don't think that he won't be relevant next week.
And i'm really a bit scared of derby this week T____T First time in 3 years probably. #CLGseason4Believe #itnotimportanthowyoustartitsimportanthowyoufinish

I wish there were a split where clg had a roster that has been playing and practicing for a while and not switching evey damn split

Isn't Jiji still a sub? They could plug him back into jungle and then at least Link could play mid where he's going to be when Dexter gets back.

I realize that, but couldn't they ship him out there now that they've had 2 weeks or so? What's the point of having Jiji as a sub if you aren't going to use him under these circumstances?

Doublelift said that they wanted to play with HotshotGG, not with other guys even though he told them to tryout some midlaners like prolly to sub. It's just about natural synergy and comfort zones.

I guess that makes sense. It seems awfully hard on Link to do a bunch of role-swapping, but if he's okay with it I guess this is probably the best choice.
Like Neo said, management's failure to get Dexter into the US is the biggest error here.

Wait so Dexter is a mid? Why would they do that and force a role swap for since he was already fine at mid. They just needed a good Top/Jungle for once.

EG vs Dig, can Qtpie deliver on his trashtalk?

I will be stunned if this happened, but it'd be awesome.
Dig's two matches today have some backstory, which is always fun.
It's their first game against Vulcun/XDGG since Zuna made his comments after beating Dig in the Summer Split playoffs.
It's also their first game against EG after Qtpie referred to them as EU rejects. There was also some playful sniping on twitter.

No no! I was just saying Link having to roleswap sucks because he has to readjust to mid when Dexter gets back. I worded it poorly, and there's really nothing CLG can do about it.
