However, his comments today on Twitter, while intended for snarky fans, Reginald, and Loco, were actually aimed AT THE PLAYERS. I don't really get why he has to spend hour after hour dismantling the team just to get his rocks off at people that "have wronged him and his". I don't think he's the devil, but I really do think he crossed a line here. making comments that are funny at how bad TSM is in comparison to SSW, is crossing the line? Hell, that's pretty much what everyone who knows anything about the korean scene was saying, except he's funny about it.

Calling wildturtle a retard as a public figure probably going too far but meh on the rest. Probably went a bit overboard on the whole though, I don't give a fuck so it was hilarious to me but I can get why TSM fans aren't happy about it

It just shows Thorin is about a mature as Locodoco, except one guy is supposed to be a journalist and the other one wants to snort cocaine off of Jaedong's dick

TSM did better than I expected. If they didn't inexplicably recall when they had a shot at baron in game 4, the series would have been much interesting to say the least. Definitely seems like White was screwing with them a bit, but it almost blew up in their face.

Funnily enough, Thooorin does his job best in business. Couldn't give less fucks about his trolling in twitter though, fun to read, fun to listen always.

Well apparently, quite a few people do. @_@

Thoorin's 'apology' is hilarious. It's nice that he puts some effort into his snarky jabs, reminds me of CN netizens' style "黑"-ing players minus the expletives.

Yeah it's actually some sort of art to be that kind of douchy

Goddamn thorin/monte/lomodoco used to have such a good bromance going on then lomodoco joined TSM

Why did he write an official apology when no one even cares about his tweets lol ? His apology looks like something you'd write when you get caught by the reddit pitchforks but as far as I know he didn't get a reddit thread... Edit : oh ok its a copy pasterino.

In fairness, it's Loco that blew that up. He went WAY too hard responding to what he called undue criticism of TSM's players. Reginald NEEDS to hire a PR person for next season. That brand is worth way too much to leave to his "shoot by the hip" brand of PR. Then again, it hasn't hurt people like Mark Cuban or Donald Trump, so maybe he should say what he wants and then dry his tears with $1000 bills.

"no one" is quite a stretch considering the shitstorm thread on reddit with 3000 comments.

3000 salty TSM fans. Don't think they count?

At least thoorin isn't someone who talks trash behind the curtain and smiles into the camera like a nice guy. Everything that comes out of his mind is directly blown into the community. Like a river with a lot of waste but people still try to find the clean water in it for consumption.

yeah that's what i like about him, he might act like a kid a lot of the time, but he tries to deceive no one

I actually think Thooorin's hilarious. Was just pointing out that nobody giving a shit about his opinion is totally false considering all the drama in the recent months like voyboy, ape reginald.
He's a cunt but also hosts the most popular LoL talk show and his journalist work is top notch.

Yes I agree he really puts a lot of work into his interviews and stuff. At the end this whole thoorin stuff is also just a result of how poor the scene behind leage at the moment really is. If there where a bunch of different "agencies" who do lol-related stuff then thoorin probably would still fill a niche but would not have the amount of attention he has at the moment.

mostly a problem because Riot only promotes it's own content, and then at the same time (seemingly I would hope for their credibility) putting a extremely short leash on their content creators on actually creating non-fluff content.

on the topic of the games though, is it just me or had Ahri been garbage in this tournament, outside of TInowns's sick game vs. Alliance I feel like all I've seen that hero do is lose or be carried.
I also find it pretty humorous that SSW are apparently incapable of not trolling, I was really sad they didn't throw down the hammer and make TSM loss streak to Koreans as hilarious as possible, but I'm glad TSM actually came to play game 4 giving the third game at least a hint of legitimacy.
Lastly I'm still really surprised that Kha'zix has not risen in pick/ban priority, I think he's easily one of the strongest heroes on this patch, especially when the thumb is banned, he has no peer.
