Both should be replaced. And maybe Qt too - he can't seem to maintain focus on training as an adc for a whole split

The problem with Dig is getting a new player in spots is hard. There are very few open agents or possible players in lower-tiers that would be trade-able that would be a significant upgrade over what Dig already has.


That's a lie lol. Dig players are just too big buddies to actually get kicked. It's why Scarra was around for so long.

Who realistically could replace Crumbz?

Kiwi I could see a few challenger support who are around as good, but then you have to go through rebuild for synergy in botlane.

Who's a better ADC than QTpie that isn't already on a decent LCS team? RobertXLee? but is he really going to leave CoL?


Pretty much any of the junglers in the promos are better than Crumbz and evvery other jungler in LCS is better.

It's easy to say junglers in promos are better than crumbz, considering the level of competition they're playing.


They don't go damage and engage poorly constantly. Think it's pretty easy to see how bad Crumbz is if you don't have Dig goggles.

Crumbzz just can't be mediocre, like, let's say, Kez, he's either dominating or just useless.
And for Challenger scene, lol, who is better? Heaventime is my only choice, because they have close playstyles, PorpoisePops rides the CaliTrolz back, Saint is Saint and Santorin tilts in important games against decent opponents consistently.

It's not like NA jungle scene has same level of talent like EU has with k0u, Amin, Trashy and crew.

Any challenger jungler who isn't too stubborn to buy items based on what his team needs could replace Crumbzz.

Qt's problem is he just isn't dedicated enough. Every split he starts off looking pretty decent because he's trained in the offseason, and then the meta changes and he won't put in the time to adjust. He won't play Tristana because she's "boring". That's a horrible attitude, and even though I love the guy, unless he fixes that he can't be an lcs adc. Give me someone promising who will put the time in to learn strong champions.

(Note: I still think Qt could be a good player, but his personality and success as a streamer might be too much for him to ever realize his full potential.)

Kiwi has his games now and then, but he's terribly inconsistent and when he's not on, he's straight up terrible. If Qt can't build synergy with another support (Bunnyfufu, Sheep, etc), then he should be cut too.

tldr; it doesn't matter if the immediate replacements are better now, it's that they'd be better in the long run.

why the amumu pick? they dont need a risky jungler when zion is splitpushing.


Because Crumbz loves to pick risky junglers and build damage items on them first when his team is split push Zion with Shiphtur and Qt on high damage carries.

It makes no sense. It's like earlier this season when he went glass cannon Elise and fed every team fight when he had Shiphtur on Xerath, Qt on Kog, and Zion on Nidalee.

He doesn't realize this isn't solo queue. Any time an enemy team sees his build I imagine the coms are just laughing and everyone making a note to blow him up immediately whenever he enters a fight for an easy 4v5.


qft, a squishy engager with no escape is the sweetest target ever

the ap item isn't even incredible for early clears and ganks since it needs to stack (and w scales ap only on % health, bad early game).
also amumu is slightly "bruiserish" with mediocre base burst damage but good dps on w and e. and everyone wants tanks to goddamn soak damage in teamfights and not just fall over during their standard combo.

don't think it matters at this point who's currently better, if they want to actually compete at an international level, dig needs to take risks on challenger players who can show growth because their current players (non ex-Coast) will never cut it.


real talk though, does dig really want that? even if you are the best team in NA, you'll still get crushed by korea at worlds. as long as you stay in the LCS, it's much more profitable for an org to have a team of personalities.

i have DIG goggles and crumbzz was awful after level 5
edit: or whenever that early dragon was, that was a smart call since clg were all low and had to recall after their 5 men dive bot

Yeah, Crumbz is shit, but I still think he's better than any jungler Dig could realistically pick up.

He just needs to choose something that's retard proof, like elise or lee sin.

Perhaps it's the armchair critic in me speaking, but surely there exists an non-LCS NA player out there who's able to perform better/more consistently than crumbzz. The onus is entirely on Dig's management to find that player, or develop that player if he doesn't exist yet. To continually fall back on the crutch of "NA no talent QQ" is just their ineptness showing. (IMO. I may have phrased things more harshly than I'm intending + this is also a general comment on NA team managements; dig fans please don't take it personally)

He's been shit the whole split except for right at the start. He was shit the whole of last split too except for the start. He goes for items that don't allow him to help his team then dies constantly because of those items. It's about time he gets removed.

Meh, I'm a huge Dig fan, but they deserve harsh criticism at this point. They basically degraded in skill this split, while still having all the problems they used to have in terms of strategy.

Edit: Hey look! Qt might have actually practiced Tristana finally.

it's a bit sad because crumbzz has really good early game map awareness of the enemies movements and can gank/countergank really well. i don't understand why he cant do the way easier part of the game on a nearly similar level.

The problem with Dig is getting a new player in spots is hard. There are very few open agents or possible players in lower-tiers that would be trade-able that would be a significant upgrade over what Dig already has.


That's a lie lol. Dig players are just too big buddies to actually get kicked. It's why Scarra was around for so long.

Who realistically could replace Crumbz?

Kiwi I could see a few challenger support who are around as good, but then you have to go through rebuild for synergy in botlane.

Who's a better ADC than QTpie that isn't already on a decent LCS team? RobertXLee? but is he really going to leave CoL?


Pretty much any of the junglers in the promos are better than Crumbz and evvery other jungler in LCS is better.

It's easy to say junglers in promos are better than crumbz, considering the level of competition they're playing.


They don't go damage and engage poorly constantly. Think it's pretty easy to see how bad Crumbz is if you don't have Dig goggles.

I've been spamming this, so I apologize, but I really think it has to do with item builds and his communication with the team. When he engages Dig looks like they've been caught entirely off guard by it. And then he dies instantly because he doesn't understand it isn't solo queue and he can't afford to build damage.

Crumbzz just can't be mediocre, like, let's say, Kez, he's either dominating or just useless.
And for Challenger scene, lol, who is better? Heaventime is my only choice, because they have close playstyles, PorpoisePop rides the CaliTrolz back, Saint is Saint and Santorin tilts in important games against decent opponents consistently.

It's not like NA jungle scene has same level of talent like EU has with k0u, Amin, Trashy and crew.


Perhaps it's the armchair critic in me speaking, but surely there exists an non-LCS NA player out there who's able to perform better/more consistently than crumbzz. The onus is entirely on Dig's management to find that player, or develop that player if he doesn't exist yet. To continually fall back on the crutch of "NA no talent QQ" is just their ineptness showing. (IMO. I may have phrased things more harshly than I'm intending + this is also a general comment on NA team managements; dig fans please don't take it personally)


That's what we're assuming for years and years while watching Russian national football team.

I remember at the start of the season they were drilling it in hard that crumbzz was the shotcaller, they follow crumbzz for better or for worse and have to listen to him. I wonder what happened there

They say that every season. I'm not sure it's actually true. I've heard Crumbz just calls the early game and then it's sort of a free for all - which, if true, is complete garbage and Scarra should be fired if it's still what they do.

haha, yeah, i think we are just agreeing with each other at this point.

i hate the mundo pick, weak lane presence and the nerfs to visage and the mastery regeneration nerf hit him so damn hard.
i can't believe the ryze matchup is that favorable either and he picked into that
