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.
Phoenix1, the remains of undisputed cool team TiP, are now my favorite team in NA.

Inori making GBS threads on Svenskeren in the post-match interview was the best part of that series.

But if I could be serious for a moment: TSM have their bye locked up and p1 are 10th in the standings, giving them a win can't possibly hurt TSM. This is a clear strategic move on TSMs part where they let their game fingers rest and played with like, ring and pinky exclusively. See ya in the playoffs, kids. Oh sorry - round two of the playoffs haha.

whoa whoa whoa friend. P1 isn't 10th; that spot belongs to Echo Fox.

This is why TSM should have rested their starters for playoffs... now they're going to have the trauma mental baggage from losing this game hanging over their heads...

Fun fact... the only person on P1 who's listed as an import is Pirean.

Gate was born in China but his family moved to America long before he started playing League professionally, so he counts as an NA resident per the rules.

When I die, I hope they say I made the eSports industry a better place than I made millions of dollars.
Catching up with a ton of LCS highlights I missed due to traveling. I don't understand the return of Triforce into BoRK Irelia. That's such a greedy build for competitive and then she just gets focused and annihilated in any 5v5.

Splyce looks really good and Wunder is probably the most improved player in the EU LCS, he's somehow gone from a guy who teleports to engage 1v4s and die to a guy who tends to always be on the right side of early aggressive trades and team fights exceptionally well even on utility champions in losing lanes.

Drop everything you're doing right now, and watch P1 TSM.

THen you can go back to your regularly scheduled EU.

Hahaha good call. I suspected this because of the number of Reddit posts but it was definitely worth watching. The Rengar ban in game 3 was hilarious too and pretty much everything.

Honestly, I think Inori just proved why people like Rush work. It's just that teams get so stuck in the meta of Gragas Rek'sai they forget there's something else to play.

no, reworked ryze is probably 1 or 2 weeks out, and the cannon minion changes / turret are on PBE.

there are many solo queue superstars that never make it on stage. he probably had some mental block and yamato's coaching worked with him. supposedly woolite was a feared player during scrims/solo queue and hes a complete bot in comp games

yeah woolite was also a pretty weird case because he was actually a really good laner and always did well in teamfights, but there was a 100% certainty he'd lose the game because he backed in the middle of lane or facechecked a brush for no reason as jinx

also i wish yamato could coach me...

You have not felt shame until you have seen your team give Woolite a penta in a scrim tbh
