I'm still calling a drug scandal between Pob/Chris/DL that upset Hotshot for some reason. Still not sure if they really needed a reason to kick DL besides him not being worth it except for the fans he keeps interested. I don't see DL playing much of a different role than WT did on TSM since Bjerg is a god and can carry his team in NA easily so it's more of a marketing move by Regi.

Either way, it makes it really easy for me to stop hating CLG since they finally got rid of the cancerous deadweight that is DL and hate TSM even more.

DL can do some of the stupid poo poo that WT does, but uh this basically ignores DL out farming, out killing, out everything every other NA ADC this split.

He had the same gold share as Altec. 2% less than Wildturtle while dealing 180 more damage per minute. Biggest CS differential at 10 for an ADC, 2nd highest CS per minute, highest kill participation for ADCs.

Are you talking about like some split other than summer split? or worlds or something? because he did not put up worse numbers than sneaky or WT last summer. WT has been dogshit.

Comparing relative gold shares between players is pointless, it's a team metric and a not a player metric. Comparing GPM/DPM between players is a much more interesting thing to do.

Sneaky is actually a frat bro and annoying as gently caress, but he's a better player than DL.

Wellllll gold share sort of indicates where a team is putting their resources. Damage dealt is also a potentially misleading stat because of burst, penetration, and aoe damage meaning you can't tell what kind of impact without SOME kind of context.

Kill participation and cs @ 10 are pretty good for telling a story EXCEPT FOR WHEN A LANE SWAP IS INVOLVED but even then they give you an idea of how people are performing in the swap I guessssss

But by looking at the stats and the record from the split you can see that DL arguably had the best split of any NA ADC~~

I don't like Sneaky bc I think he's a boring to watch cleanup ADC and don't have any opinion of DL one way or the other, im just making jokes

I've thought that CLG needed to get rid of Doublelift for years, but I am very surprised that somehow Xmithie remains employed.

Conspiracy: During Week 2 of Group Worlds, CLG Coach leaked to Doublelift that team was going to kick POB and Doublelift when offseason hit and led to tilt plus CLG being bad.

All 3 are now gone.
