He got a toxicity suspension from the LCS for like a year or something, so no he seems pretty awful. I missed the interview so I don't know about his voice though.

He got a permaban on all his accounts at the time in addition to the one year tournament suspension. There was a big to-do about it and Riot commented that you don't get a pass on being a shithead just because you're in the top 200 players or whatever (this happened before there was a Challenger division).

Goons still seem to think he's the worst person on the planet, but as far as I can tell he took his licks and completely reformed. I saw him stream some after his suspension was up and while he still looked and sounded like the poster boy for Hot Topic, he behaved himself and didn't even look like he was having trouble doing so. No rage in game, not even any stream-only rage (where the players couldn't see). I don't really think the continued hate is warranted.

Wouldn't Lulu mid have been a better idea for Dignitas? She brings a ton of tools to shut down assassins like Pantheon and Kha'zix. Then again, Scarra probably hasn't practiced it at all :v:

Why the gently caress did they go back in after balls got murdered!? C9 had baron and full hp and like, a 4k gold lead and then Dig just decides to feed even more. They can't take the small advantages that are given to them.

I think they actually had a good chance of taking that fight if qtpie didn't take a hook to the face.

Bot and top are definitely the weak links for Dig at the moment. QTPie just doesn't seem very good on anything but Jinx. Kiwikid has been OK on support. Cruzer is just... in dire need of improvement.

Though to be fair, I think Cruzer historically has played less tanky top laners and specialized in stuff like Lee Sin. Maybe the tank masteries nerf will help him.

Thought Scarra had a pretty good idea last picking Veigar into such a dive-heavy team and Crumbzz's counter-jungle heavy early-mid game Lee pick was equally appropriate, but Dignitas loving poo poo THE BED with the other 3 picks: picking Mundo into his biggest lane counter and Leona/Sivir into Caitlin/Thresh is just comically bad.

If you let Zion get a carry champion you camp the hell out of him because he will carry if given the chance.

I wonder why EG chose to engage that fight when they got poked down by spears?

Coast's shot calling is tragic.

This game was painful to watch. There were some really good plays and some really, really, really bad decision making.

Coast hosed around their lead for the entire game to the point that it was a non factor. Then Pobelter misplayed the last teamfight. I liked EG's shotcalling from behind but that was a silly game.

EG had some nice uses of their speed to mess with Coast, but otherwise that game was pretty..special. I don't know why Coast didn't just take down the inhibs and force a fight that way, they could wreck structures fine.

He's the only person I've ever seen use Hecarim in professional play which is kinda cool I guess.

They were barely coming out ahead of engagements where they had baron. How many times did you see Snoopeh fling a person? How many times did Pobelter get to go nuts in the middle of a group? Coast was not willing to give them a chance and that was smart play. Hopefully they continue to play with this kind of control.
