I can't believe there are casters who don't know how to correctly pronounce the names of champions when there are official Riot videos that name them phonetically, but I'm not surprised that it's Quickshot. Even better he's just decided to say it a different way each time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9m48jiVWL4

When Phreak does it though all bets are off because that guy is a muppet.

Shaco is a hard "A", just like the hat http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shako I hate that Unicorns are currently ahead with Shaco, on moral grounds.

This series is awesome and horrible all at once. I love seeing UOL bring back the loving cheese styling to the playoffs that got them into the LCS. I hate seeing Gambit throw the poo poo out of the game, Diamond and Edward remind me of playing like they did with old M5 where they'd be caught somewhere stupid but somehow they knew their team would win the teamfight, but this time instead they're just getting poo poo-stomped by Hylissang catching them out and more coordinated teams in this era knowing how to respond to those skirmishes. It sucks we don't get to see UOL cheese during regular LCS because of the format. mushi fucked around with this message at 19:56 on Apr 5, 2015 |

In retrospect the fact that the Taipai Assassins took the Season 2 Championship from Gambit is the most thing in League history. Also the fact that Shaco will now be a 100% winrate champion in LCS play for Season 5 is a travesty.

I really want to say Hylissang was series MVP for those sick bindings/hooks, but Kikis caused a team to have to spend a ban on loving Udyr the deciding game of a bo5.

Kikis is my favorite jungler based on the shaco pick alone. e: Ok, based on all of his picks.... VVVV SKT Tom showed the way imo. He really made Udyr seem shockingly viable.

I think Kikis deserves it - they were both amazing, but Kikis did it on Udyr and Shaco. Doing it on Morgana and Thresh doesn't seem as impressive by comparison.

Zwingley posted:I remember when Gambit was basically the best team in the world. but also it definitely helps to dissociate this iteration of Gambit with the old roster. It's basically not the same team and not the same style of gameplay at all. They're way more vanilla with their picks and strategy these days, but probably because everyone else caught up with them in terms of teamfighting and learned how to exploit Darien and Genja's dumb poo poo.

That being said I'm really glad UOL exists and is in the LCS because there's always a good chance they'll pull something interesting, and their games are usually fun to watch. Fnatic vs UOL in the finals, please.

my guess is TiP in 3 or 4. They just had a higher quality of play towards the end of the split based on results and the few games I watched.

Maybe I should have said "arguably the best team in the world." I do actually think they would have beat Frost in a Bo5, but TPA was better at the time. Regardless, though, we're years too late to actually discuss it. Just let me live in my rose-tinted past, okay? I am glad to see Alex on the desk, though!
