That's because if its relegation there's almost a 100% chance Shiphtur is playing

Is there like a statistic for players who have been in most relegation matches? Shiphtur has to be way up there.

yea thats even what i mean, gnar should bully maokai and yet Avalon is only down like 10 cs. It should be way more if Seraph is truly better than avalon. Also you can body people on mundo if you're Shy or Dyrus B)

edit: it seems like in G1 and G2 TDK was like "Ok Seraph is much better than avalon so we'll give him a champion that is normally weaker early & needs time to scale and his skill will carry him through." Where as I'd rather they go,"lets give seraph a champion that shits on avalon and let him carry"

for these baby challenger teams, sivirs only purpose is to hit R so your 1 star player can chase down the enemy team. Im glad altec is destroying this guy in lane

meanwhile players like bang & deft & sneaky & wildturtle that are actual winners will spellshield something that doesnt even have a cast animation or flight time

He's also atrocious in lane swaps so banning Maokai and hiding LouisXGeeGee in a lane against Avalon seems a lot better than letting him in a lane with a real live person

I wonder if there's space for someone like POB or Shiphtur to create a 3-4-5 man squad that is there to get teams into the LCS, then the org mysteriously drops them to recruit other free agents. hahaha.

seriously he just got 1v2'd by Ziggs/Alistar when he is the king of AP dmg reduction maokai why was he even in that situation

POB, Altec and Gleeb are good enough to get picked up by any mid tier LCS team. Hell, Dig would do great to get the first two. I think it's a fair trade if Avalon and Helios are stopped.
