If you prefer more methodical play I am sure you would like EU more than NA. It feels like the difference between OGN and LPL to me.

Fnatic are the most fun team to watch in LCS, I don't know why you wouldn't root for them. They even make Elements games watchable. I still have no idea how a team of LCS veterans have no loving idea how to play the game before it hits 50 minutes. Copenhagen Wolves are the same, they do fuckall until very late game when everyone has 6 items. Neither team makes enough mistakes to close on them, but neither team ever postures while they're ahead until they can just one-shot a carry.

I feel like I know a lot more of the NA player personalities and they seem more active in streaming/social media. And that's a perfectly valid opinion to have. It just gets really wearisome for those of us who do enjoy watching the EU LCS to have people every week going "OMG EU LCS SO BORING AMIRITE GUYS!?!"

OG Fnatic was fun to watch because Deathbrush. CLG EU was fun to watch because Froggen gonna frog, and Scumbag Krepo. M5 was awesome because they appeared and hosed up everyone and gave everyone the finger and the deathstare. SK was fun to root against because of Ocelote. EU is currently full of unknowns, boring/bad teams, or rear end in a top hat racists. When the racists are the ones who have entertaining games and win, it makes it very difficult for me to invest in the region. e: Also Joe and Deman are gone, duh.

Why do people who play against CW ban Draven or Kalista but never both? Freeze just always picks the other one and does well. I mean if you are going to go half in on ADC bans you might as well go all-in. Draven just cleaned up in the last fight and he's probably going to go monstrous now. Woolite is reminding CW why they let Roccat buy him.

At this point NA games are just as likely to be snoozefests as EU ones (with stuff like DIG disengage comps), and with the addition of the new Fnatic roster and teams like UOL and SK there are some interesting teams to follow too.

I think it's depressing that one of the most fun teams in EU are the racist ragelords. All in on Fnatic I guess.

Why do pro teams keep running double AD comps without any front line for peel? And then they insist on trying to team fight early. I don't get it.

Comrade Question posted:Is there some team of national socialists that I am not aware of? Svenskeren is an idiot and racist. Forgiven is an rear end in a top hat which is the equivalent to a racist. nrated is german so racist by default. The midlaner replaced Jesiz so he's a racist as well. And everybody knows what giant racist assholes werewolves are.

Aaand, this is why I hate Roccat's comp. First, it only works if a team manages to get ahead in the match, and now they have no comeback mechanism. Second, I utterly hate comps with built-in expiration date, and with double adcs and no frontline, the longer this game takes, the less able Roc is to fight.

Man why is the one game I can watch before class boring. #eulcsisgarbage quote:Is there some team of national socialists that I am not aware of? Sven of SK is a giant racist piece of poo poo and Forgiven has a reputation of being a jerk but has not been known to be racist to my knowledge. The rest of the team is fine as far as we know unless something happened I didn't hear about. I can't find that .gif of qtpie saying EU LCS is garbage superimposed over an American flag but this game is basically that.

Uuugh, this just hurts to watch. I think I'll just give up on Roc's games and hope that at some point some better team picks Jankos and maybe Overpow up, there's nothing else worth salvaging in this garbage team. Their coaching staff in particular is terrible judging from their pick/ban phases.

CW really happy their old buddy Woolite is helping them out.

I still insist Roccat's entire issue is/was dumping their two existing players for Nukeduck and Woolite. I would absolutely take Celavar and Xaxus, with Overpow back to Mid, over what they have this season. This team they have no has absolutely no synergy whatsoever and the guys they picked up don't dominate their lanes enough to make up for it.

'Team Racist Assholes' is a meme I went with this season and it's spread to the rest of the thread. SK isn't really assholey or racist anymore. And EU is just uninteresting because its bad teams are much worse than NA's and also excruciatingly slow and hesitant.

I think Vander is probably the best Thresh player in Europe (even now), and they should just keep him on that forever until it gets banned against them. Playing anything else on him just doesn't make a lot of sense to me. It's like Tusin on IM in Korea. Just put the man on Thresh.

Is this still 5.2? Teams giving up Ahri on 5.2 is so insane but it keeps happening. Her win percentage has to be above 70%.

I might be wrong, but I'm under impression that if someone made a compilation of critical hooks Vander missed and completely hosed his team, it would be much longer than one of ones he hit to turn the tide. But hell, might be that I just wasn't watching LCS carefully enough last season.
