I think Sneaky is a real viable contender for All-stars, or at least should be. He is at the very least top 3 NA ADC and you could argue him being #1. I don't know how well he can play other lanes, but as an AD he is always impressive imo. He's really improved a lot. Even early this season he and Lemon looked like the weak link on C9, but they've turned that around completely. I still don't think he's at the level of Dlift/WT, but he's getting there. To be honest, they look as weak link always when they face Rush Hour. But considering fact that C9 this season don't think about laning as much as last season, it's not a problem for them. the point is you wont get to teamfight phase if you get sht on in laning phase unless you laneswap 100% of the time. Think of C9 botlane facing EDG's bot or imp&mata. How do you contest drake when your ad is 20+cs and levels behind By laneswapping or simply picking well?You can definitely go even vs superior opponents with good picks/swaps or jungle pressure.C9 really aren't that bad at laning dunno why everyone loves to mention it for no reason. you mean going even while you counterpick your opponent? cuz thats what happens in c9 bot's laning phase. sure you can do that, but that means you have to sacrifice top. Do that against korean teams and gg easy son, any na toplaner getting counterpicked against korean tops, game becomes 4v5 Why would they have to sacrifice top?What are you even talking about? wtf, this isn't soloqueqe . One lane's weakness affects other lanes. you compensate botlanes weakness by counterpicking them, then In the drafting phase you have to pick top/jungle/mid first. Jungle has low champion pool so it gets priotiorized. No one wants their mid to get counterpicked because how mid-dependent this meta is. So top becomes the sacrifical lamb. You are assuming you can just counterpick an enemy team botlane without weakening your other lanes. But any good team with their head on right in the drafting phase wont allow that to happen.
To be honest, you can pick better lanes without counterpicking, that was pure Cloud9 strategy last season which worked until the moment of Kassadin and double tp, when Fnatic just abused Hai and C9's botlane.

EG team full ad. Ok Innox ha smaybe not the biggest champion pool, but it is not like Pobelter could not have played aynthing else. Again EG puts themselves on a clock.

I am not assuming anything.Bot lane doesn't get counterpicked unless you pick something weak.If you go caitlyn/karma or something similar unless you get VERY outplayed you win or go even AT WORST by just the picks.Doesn't matter if you pick them blind.

why pick varus and eve into k6 and lee sin? such dumb idea >.> everyone knows that when you have a hyper mobile enemy team, you need to pick a completely immobile adc, because it is so unbelievably stupid, the other team will think you are superbaiting them. Duh.
it's pretty apparent to me that alex penn doesn't do shit for coast. it's so fucking obvious that you see k6 that you don't fucking choose varus....

what the fuck was that zion and nintendude >.>
|
snoopeh bought his lcs account on ebay ehehe^^
|
Every time junglers go by the bushes without checking them for pinks god kills a puppy.
|
is Nintendude the least effective/impactful jungler in professional play right now?

He is the proud owner of the highest death count in LCS history... So yes. For that and so many other reasons. He just quit getting better while the rest of the scene (minus maybe Snoopeh) improved.

Innox singlehandedly brought Coast back for no reason at all.
|
innox going full retard after massively outplaying zion and nitnendude 5 sec earlier >.>
|
The bot lane synergy for coast is legendary.
|
Oh boy, they were so close to killing Kha. Too bad they stacked the cc with the Solar Flare.

... wow Shiptur. Would have made the same result if he wasn't in that fight.

Wiz won't get a shot this game, Pobelter is just deleting him.

Get fucked Balls, can't be so lucky everytime. I have loved following your posts. The best top laner in NA is "just lucky" about 5 times a game. Too funny. Definitely no skill involved to set themselves up for all those "lucky" plays. Total luck that the guy who routinely 1v1s every other top laner manages to survive and get away safely from dicey situations. Luck luck luck luck Those who attribute many things to "luck" are more likely to have an external locus of control and have problems improving at anything as they are unabled to see mistakes projecting much? Projection typically occurs in defence of self so uhhh.. no. It was merely an observation lel
It's an unconscious defense mechanism in psychodynamic theory, it isn't necessarily triggered when someone attacks you but rather when you see an aspect of yourself that you don't like...
