TheChad posted:Oh yeah he was loving obnoxious there. His play in the first two games let's me forgive him a bit though. I got this weird flowchart going on where if someone is an rear end in a top hat but they play really well and entertainingly, I won't forgive them. But if they're an rear end in a top hat, are skilled/entertaining, AND handsome, I will. Which I guess answers the age-old question of "Guys, seriously, I can't figure out whether Prolly is good-looking or not?", at least for me.

Jayisspecial posted:If this was true would Cruzer be one of the best tops in the LCS? Being a top lane tank means playing a boring champ consistently, knowing when to teleport, and being there as the core of team fight mechanics. For whatever reason, only Dyrus and Balls do it well enough to make it useful. The other teams abandon it and just let their tops play out of meta because hell, atleast they get something done even if it's not to the team's benefit. I think Zion is underrated though and he'd look great on CLG. Yeah, but Zion has demonstrated that he can shine on tanky champs. I just think it's wrong to assume that because a guy plays off-meta to try to carry his crappy team that he can't play the meta.

I have a bad feeling about this series now that CLB got utterly destroyed. The possibility of a comeback is very real all of a sudden, especially considering how easily CLB goes on tilt. Westrice's piss-poor performances certainly ain't helping either.

I'd like to see them get him Jax for the next game. He couldn't match Zion's movement tank for tank in the last game anyhow.

I just think it's wrong to assume that because a guy plays off-meta to try to carry his crappy team that he can't play the meta. The difference is that Zion on a meta champion is not near as good as Dyrus or Balls on a meta champion. Edit: And keep in mind this series, Zion is facing Westrice... who looks like a Diamond 3 top lane.

Is Westrice always this bad or is it the legendary LAN Jitters? He wouldn't be the first one to be choking on-stage.

Jerkface posted:The difference is that Zion on a meta champion is not near as good as Dyrus or Balls on a meta champion. I don't think Zion is better than Dyrus or Balls. But I do think that a team doing poorly exerts a lot of mental pressure on a player like Zion to take risks and go big. This is exactly what happened to Dyrus in the final against C9. Lots of bad decisions, over-extending in the lane and getting crushed by Balls and Meteos in all three games. No one accused Dyrus of being bad at the meta. Imagine if Dyrus was on Coast. I think he'd be subject to the exact same criticism as Zion.

Not sure about giving a play making champion like lee sin to Westrice. I guess when you can't do the other stuff may as well try something new.

Quick OGN question: my friend's about to watch KTB vs Shield, but doesn't have time for all 5. Which games are worth watching? I didn't see it myself so dunno, but obviously game 5 simply as the final game.

It's kind of a toss up on whether it works or not. his decision making is terrible tho, and good Lee Sin play involves knowing when to go hard and when to dip out. Westrice does not have the skill to make those kind of decisions correctly and will just get completely hosed by Zion.

My proposal after watching today's games is to make NA LCS a six team league because this has been atrocious. Though I'll admit some of the blame lies with the current state of the meta.
