is there anyone in top lane in NA that's a better pickuip?

They could just get someone from eu but I really dont think that there is not a single better player than nien that isn't on a team lol.


They'll need to use dat CLG money, sell Kelby's Ford Focus ezpz.

The top lane talent pool in the west overall feels lacking, like who could they even get from EU that isn't already taken. Yamatocannon?

If they got someone from EU they'd just get deported and we'd be back to having Hotshot farming double waves inside the enemy base on Udyr while the other team takes baron.

I don't care who will be the new CLG toplaner I just want Nien to play ADC again. MegaZero is still a better toplaner than Nien.
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

Megazero maybe, but I'm not sure he's a great fit for CLG.

I think Nien is just garbage on tanks, he's had good performances on some AP champs

I think NA teams (or just the top laners) are really bad at using teleport. I remember watching dyrus on a number of champs taking teleport and he'd consistently use it way too late in team fights, and watching nien now, he may as well have only had one summoner throughout the game.


The only time I remmeber him using TP was to join a bot lane fight where he instantly died.


when you tp too early and the enemy just backs out you look like a dumbass too.
since the delay is so long on teleport, it's really not that easy to predict the flow of the fight
(barring homeguards cheese etc)

i think you are being too critical there


Except that was the last time in the game he used that (that I remember, anyway).

He's bad at using TP, and on top of that CLG is so bad at vision control that they would be cc'd -> dead before he can even use his TP. That's basically why he just stuck with his team the entire game.

Afaik megazero has gone back to college and isn't really playing competitively anymore. Maybe CLG could tempt him back in
Well besides, we all know the real answer is CLG.Maknoon, but since it's CLG I instead think it'll be CLG.Helios in top lane.

I don't really like the attitude that nobody in NA could be a better toplaner than Nien. Hold tryouts, find a toplaner that shows potential (you're CLG afterall), and try to develop them. Even if you don't find someone amazing at first at least they've practiced playing toplane a shit ton and understand the role well. I really don't see why it would be harder to do that than taking an adc main and forcing him into a position he has no experience with.

I'm still upset that Nien wasn't picked up as ADC for Vulcun last season. God they would have been an amazing team!

On another note, I'm looking forward to this next game! I think it should be a good one.

Actually I just realised, rhux is still languishing on that joke crs.academy. It's pretty much an open invite for CLG it's not like he's the highest priority for curse. But potential doe.

Let's put it this way, dig did the same thing, they got kiwikid.
then they did it again, they got cruzerthebruzer.
EG did the same, they got Innox.
I wouldn't rank any 3 of those significantly higher than Nien, they're all around the same level.

Man, everytime I watch rhux play, nothing stands out.

I'm just saying that they could've picked him over Nien when MRN disbanded and there was no point in time when Nien was better toplaner than MegaZero. I'm not sure who's the best non-LCS toplaner right now, I just hate seeing Nien play top.

Oh god you're right, Nien is just what XDG needs.
