Did he comment at all about Blizz studio's lack of booths? I mean if he doesn't say anything, that's pretty ok. Don't try to start shit obv. But if he's shilling on behalf of Blizz and saying OW doesn't need booths now, then that's pretty l0l. | ||

He then joins a company that has an even harder grip than Riot while making sure there is zero avenue for any outside content for players or casters. He's been adamantly against region locking and other regional tactics but then joins a company who wants to drive isolationism further in esports by forcing some kind of local city based system which still makes no sense so far. A company that has been far less transparent with their esports than Riot. Dude is just. He's donezo man. I don't know about this booth story but if it's true it's just another list of many things he's willing to grovel up now that he's lower down the food chain it seems. Where's the monte that was all big boss fighting for the littler man? Now he just shills a game that's all hype with no substance so far. ANYWAY not the thread for this. Hyped for tomorrows first game. It's a bit too early for me though ![]() | ||

There is a limit to how much of a hypocrite anyone can call anyone else on TeamLiquid. Isn't this the site that refused to acknowledge League until WELL after the boom? That refrained from buying in to the largest Esport in the world over gatekeeping bullshit around BW and SC2? I mean, sure Monte is a hypocrite. So is this website and management. So am I. So are you probably. | ||

I just personally find it funny, he definitely dedicated a lot of air time to praising booths especially after the ogn arena was finished. Look I'd take monte back without question I would prefer he castes a game I like, I even tried watching apex because of him and Doa. But it doesn't stop me from finding this funny. | ||

and TL had a decent amount of support for lol i thought. idr s1 as much, but s2 was decent. i kinda preferred when they had the subforum tbh rather than all the sister sites too. monte hasn't aged well. i think of him kinda like the guys who were like top tier pros s1/ s2 but then fell off. they've got a place in history, but i don't really think their opinions matter much today. | ||

11 Min = First Turret, very late. Still no dragon...going top instead. 13:40 = the play EDG needed. Weirdly the Huni suicide botlane was good because it delayed dragon. 21:30. GG 8-0 4-2 in turrets, free baron. 26:30, EDG you have failed again, stay and seige. Oh. 29 Mins in and that happens. PS you should have been at dragon instead EDG (oh deficio agrees). 34 Mins, IMO you try to dive after winning that fight. IMO Scout lost this game for EDG, he needs to be better with this amount of gold. On October 06 2017 22:45 GrandInquisitor wrote: Not the shockwave. It was the Wolf engage + Huni silence that set it all up for Faker and Bang to press R. What I don't understand is how SKT abuses leads so hard. What is it that they do that no other team does? This team with any advantage whatsoever just bone-crushes you, while other teams with Baron and major gold leads end up sitting outside the base not doing anything. EDG had 2-3 times when they chose to back off and buy instead of engage a fight they win 9/10 times. SKT never does this because they are confident in their ability to execute. That said, EDG showed the weakness earlygame we know SKT has, which is how EDG has won vs. them before. But now they lack Deft, so its not clear what they should do. | ||

When he tweeted that RPG would come out on top of group D as 1st seed and argued with MarkZ on the analyst desk about RPG beating HKA, I was baffled. I don't watch a lot of EU LCS but I legit had to do a double take to make sure that he is indeed listed as a color caster… He's like the new "old Quikshot", except Quikshot had the excuse that he was supposed to be a play-by-play caster when he first joined the EU LCS. | ||
