Stop picking Corki, he is not good.


Corki has been picked in OGN a couple of times as well, he's probably not that bad

This is what kiwikid gets for being level 4 while everyone else is level 5/6. He spent way too much time roaming for no reason.

Over 8 teams, there are about 20 strong players, 10 acceptable players, and 10 weak players. Right now, we are seeing the strong players overwhelmingly clustered on the top 3 teams with 1 or 2 scattered around the remaining 5. If teams like XDG and EG get relegated, there is only going to be gains to the league. Right now, there is no one on either team I'd miss seeing, unlike Coast's Zion and Shiptur or CRS' bottom lane. Almost every Challenger team has a 1 or 2 players that I would rate over the entire XDG and EG lineups in their current form.


This is where we differ.

For EG: I think losing Pobelter would be a huge loss for the NA scene. This guy is fairly young, but has been trying really hard to break through. I think he has games where he is overwhelmingly better than any one else. It's why he has that godbelter nick name. I'd rather not see him lose his chance because he seems to have the required mentality to get far in this. A bit less than that, I think losing Krepo from LCS is also a loss. I don't mind if krepo+yellowpete stay together as well. Mostly, I enjoy that they are EU players, and can potentially bring something new to the scene. I also believe a younger player like Pobelter needs experienced players like krepo/yellowpete to help him out.

For XDG: I believe Xmithie deserves a LCS spot. Even when he was on AD, he was playing fairly well, and he wasn't losing bot lane earlier. It's just that zuna in the jungle does nothing, and forces no pressure on the map. I also believe Mancloud has that potential to come back to being a strong mid laner. Again, I don't know what goes on behind the scenes, but mancloud seems to have lost his motivation. I don't pay much attention to Benny, but he is performing similar to mancloud. It's possible he should stay in as well.


I think all the players you mentioned are acceptable players, not strong, at their current level of play. They all have performed much stronger in the past, but have failed to show the brilliance that makes me sad to see them go. I was a huge Pobelter fan but he has been lackluster in the spotlight of LCS.

I don't mind if LMQ joins NA LCS. I'd just rather see it happen by LMQ beating XDG. I just feel EG has more to offer for the whole of NA than XDG at the moment.

Zuna got caught a lot by hooks.
Mancloud played reasonably well on Ziggs

Cruser busted out his Jayce and it was pretty effective.

It was a pretty open and shut win for Dignitas - though they almost managed to lose an inhib to a Benny split push at one point

Zzz that Dig communication, run away from Pantheon, so they have to use Flash to stun him and they give the team 2s to collapse on them and kill them instead.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

Dig's teamfighting this match has been pretty bad, given the comps coast is gonna outscale hard and an incremental lead vs that comp is not good.
Goldenglue's play is also incredibly disappointing this match

Yeah Coast is going to start outscaling Dig here.

Goldenglue probably could not have played that fight worse
