Actually they're just not the org their fans portray them as. Hai and Jack are not nice, the team are not built on friendship

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.

Huhi is so bad

Jack made Hai a very rich person

also, Quas is either criminally bad this split or they have some reason in keeping him on maokai 100% of the time. maybe he's in the middle of some balls level freefall!

edit: he was one of the best swain players before he got a beneficial rework and plays a ton of different champs in solo queue, i think it's a coaching issue

Quas has always been forced to play tanks for whatever reason, and with NRG I would definitely call it a coaching issue. I suppose it's possible they don't trust him to play anything mechanically difficult right now? Either way you'd think they would try and put him on Irelia or Swain.

Also who was that promising young player on C9T that flamed out bc of a ton of drama that was salty AF about his friend Keith not getting to start over piglet.

Dardoch camping zion to great success so far. If the game goes long enough, vlad and swain will be really hard to deal with and graves ezreal should do a lot of damage only if azir is blown up. I think TL still wins this though

edit: and that's mainly because Huhi is far enough behind that he can just get trashed without any interference

Lourlo's build makes me happy, i've seen way too many melee carries get too fed and go straight into a second damage item and throw the game. this is mostly from solo queue but still

edit: im listening to summoning insight and they just called lourlo bad and that trinity force coming back would be very bad for him

mark is defending him but thorin and monte are pretty smug and unwilling to listen to anyone's arguments

I'm watching Froggen instead but Lourlo always seemed fairly average with moments of Good, I wouldn't call him "bad"

e: I will actually use that to describe everyone on TL except maybe Dardoch who is fairly good with moments of Average

i'd say the same thing, mark explained that liquid put him on an island and that's why his laning stats were very bad

Yeah they put him on an island and lots of naut/tank tops last split, it's hard to have a lot of standout performances that way

Does anybody else think that Darshan is playing bad, maybe because he's been replaced by a clone as part of MKUltra?

He has also most likely been replaced with a clone, and due to clone degeneration si suffering some mechanical issues.

FOX had 3 dragons and would have had a bunch of bonus extra damage if they were able to get it for free so NRG probably grabbed it to deny it from FOX which is a proper strategy but I'm sure you know more

Yeah, there's no way they knew when the dragon was gonna spawn so it was actually impossible to prep the side waves.
