Bubble-T posted:I think it's a bit early to say that, could just be Dignitas making them look comparatively great. Shook and Froggen have looked pretty sharp for sure though. My view on alliance before was that they have the raw talent to rival fnatic. The only concern was their synergy. Alliance just showed they seem to be working well, now I'm curious how they cope with adversity.

Savage Cracker posted:Fun fact: 3 NA teams (somehow) did worse than Dignitas in the NA LCS. To be fair, Kiwi is an even worse support than he was a top and Patoy was better than Cruzer as an overall player.

Soooo... Dig is officially a Bad Team now, right? I can't see Dignitas avoiding relegation unless Scarra doesn't go on tilt the entire season 4 split (or they shake up their whole roster, but Dig seems very conservative compared to other teams in regards to team moves).

KicksYouInHalf posted:To be fair, Kiwi is an even worse support than he was a top and Patoy was better than Cruzer as an overall player. I think kiwi did a little better than i expected him to (i.e. i expected him to be really bad) but they didn't see that level 3 gank coming at all and Crumbzz did nothing post-buffs. Combine this with cruzer losing lane 1v1 alone and scarra getting slowly out-pressured (with some shook pressure because gragas pushes harder than nida early) and there's nothing crumbz can do coming into mid game at all since all his lanes are losing. At best he could have hoped to get a countergank off but shook put more pressure bot and snowballed vs QTpie even more (and he was doing decently early).

Dig was officially a bad team for a while now. Watching CLG and Curse implode to lose to them and somehow give Dig 4th place was amusing in a sad way.

Yeesh, that first game was a massacre. I always wanted to love Dig because their old support L0cust is a fella from USF out here in Tampa, but they are always a hot mess. Something just doesn't jive with their team and hasn't for a long rear end time, but I can't figure out what it is exactly.

You're underestimating the other teams' ability to slump/throw.

It always seemed to me with the current Dig roster/ their season 3 roster that everyone is extremely streaky and no one does well at the same time: Scarra could carry (if he himself is not on tilt), but crumbzz or someone else will throw the game. It happened last split as well where for a couple of weeks qtpie went on an absolute tear but overall Dig was still underwhelming. iSurrender posted:You're underestimating the other teams' ability to slump/throw.

Letting that blue get stolen first game was literally a bronze level play. Scarra should retire over how obvious the steal was and letting it happen anyway.

Huh, Dig is actually recovering really well with their reactions. Crumbzz seems to always be around when someone dies in order to clean up, question is, can he come around to make sure his team doesn't die? Edit: Triforce Malphite? that's some confidence

With LCS starting up, this seems a good as time as any to remind people that there's a "Watching LCS" Skype group that I started where people can just chat about games and stuff. It's pretty active, it's fun, and it could use more people. Just add me on skype and say something about goons or whatever, I'm Ferguson "frgrbrgr" Mitchell.

In this second game, Kiwikid is making some good plays to salvage what he can out of these fights, but I feel like those three kills on Karma aren't going to do anything. Tl;Dr big gold "you tried" star for kiwikid

That's a really neat play by Alliance to 4-man gank bottom while their jungler is top. Stuff like that and Genja ganking the solo side lane one of the Gambit IEM games is the kind of plays I love to see.

Combo posted:Why are you always so hostile? Neah, no can do. People calling out pros to retire because of some random mistake is more retarded than people telling other people to uninstall because one mistake and it's hilarious that you'd even say i'm being the jackass here. How can a Malphite push as hard as a Shyvana and stay even on CS with her after using TP 2 times during laning phase. Not sure if Cruzer is just chocking here or if he's really this bad. Shook just stole blue buff with 3 dig people being there and the casters didn't even notice lmao. uaciaut fucked around with this message at 19:45 on Dec 14, 2013 |

Not a fan of the fountain dance at the end, there. They should have just ended the game, you don't get bonus points for styling on someone like that. Edit: Hahaha, love the shots fired in the post-game interview. Mr Fahrenheit fucked around with this message at 19:59 on Dec 14, 2013 |

It's just a showmatch series for some cash, that's probably why they felt like doing a bit of fun BM. VV Bad Manner, basically non-sporting behaviour like taunting the opponent or dragging the game out. Bubble-T fucked around with this message at 20:06 on Dec 14, 2013 |
