Schnorkles: Apr 30, 2015; 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.

Hai didn't pick Zed in that game???

Also: I like the tower changes for reasons.

quote:

Long story short, Vasilii got angry that his top Irelia fed 0/4/1, and the other team four-manned botlane, so he started raging. About 20 minutes into the game the stream says "ING Vasilii has left the game", and soon after sound of someting being smashed happened in the background with the camera on the other team.
Soon after Vasilii (I'm told by the link) posted that he smashed his own keyboard out of frustration of being constantly dove and the annoyance at him unable to make it to playoffs for the lpl spots. He also attributes part of his frustration to him getting older and having less and less time left as a pro.
Some unconfirmed sources in tieba says Vasilii tried to smash a computer or two and when a ref tried to stop him he chased the ref half-way around the studio. The supposed source, claiming to be a teammate, said the team were in real fear of getting beat up by Vasilii.

i hope vasilii kills a man next

I actually like the tower aggro changes

The tower aggro changes are extremely good. I don't get why they changed the cannon minion spawns though? Lane swaps can gently caress off forever though, I was getting real tired of watching the same little choreographed dance play out every game.

The cannon minion change seems good, it provides a rotating power lane so timing it is going to be important at high levels.

Are LSPL games recorded? Is there live footage of Vasili's rampage? I need to know.

I would love to be the ref that Vasilli tried to step to.

RealFoxy: May 11, 2011; I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

Someone had an interview with Vasilli a while ago about how frustrated he is getting back to China after being so successful in NA. LMQ would have been golden if all that stupid-rear end drama didn't pop up over ownership of the team.

He had nothing hovered and the pick got locked in at 0 seconds left. Like there's a period of time where the counter doesn't even display. The casters say TLA wanted Soraka.

Why is this happening so often all of a sudden???

Although I do think it's dumb that the client shows hovers to the enemy team at all.

But without it we'd be missing out on all the Korean teams trolling each other with Teemo hovers or trolling CloudTemplar with his jungle trundle!!

But yeah there's got to be a bug or something, that's three teams in one week that have mis-clicked a champion somehow.

They have to lock in trades several seconds before the timer runs out, they should probably put that on champion locks as well. Though this has not been a problem before now, it seems.

PIglet didn't misclick, the timer hit 0 and it randomly picked Rammus for him.

Could be that before, there was a little more wiggle room at 0 to change picks and now there's a lot less wiggle room

It seems like Rox's strategy this season is to let people kill Smeb over and over while Rox wins the game. It also seems to be working.

This is probably the most hilarious support scoreline I've ever seen in a competitive game of league of legends, worth watching.

Also Fnatic apparently hired all of Origen's disgruntled analysts. The press release is basically those guys saying "it's great to have an opportunity to be paid for the work I do"
