Honest question, why do you guys dislike CLG so much? My guess is that you guys don't like them because of Hotshot. However, I don't know all that much about Hotshots transgressions. So, do any of you mind fleshing it out for me?

I love CLG because of my boy Aphromoo, but they have a hilarious habit of firing the wrong people to fix problems (pobelter) and being generally incompetent. They're also incredibly meta dependent due to Darshan's champion pool.

People also used to hate on Xmithie because a) dumb name and b) the guy used to miss point blank Sejuani ults like he was being paid by the other team. He seems to have gotten significantly better though?

I used to give xsmithie maybe more poo poo than anyone on here and even I'm willing to admit that he's probably the best player on their team now. He's improved significantly.

ROX actually had the potential to gently caress up in this way too but i don't care about LCK as much and I figured it would be more evident to more people than the weaknesses of the Chinese teams. any team that has a weakness of potentially loving up the early game for no real reason is gonna get punished extra hard right now, i think, and since this isnt LCK you're not as likely to have two teams content to just hang out for 55 minutes crankin the cs hog

edit: i strongly get the impression that ROX has totally disrespected all three opponents so far and aren't as good as they think they are. it really doesn't help that they put Smeb on Poppy and gorillA hasnt been that great this season

ASol is great for Huhi because it has the kit to make big strategic plays without requiring god tier mechanics to execute.

Rox is far from out of this. That said, this is kind of a perfect storm for CLG. They got three of their signature champs, denied Peanut one of his, and Rox drafted a fairly low damage comp.

Just got back from getting sushi and as expected, fresh off the back of getting dumpstered by Arthas Knocks CLG is 7k up at 20 minutes over the #1 Korean seed. Yawn, Worlds has been so predictable so far.

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.

Guys maybe rox can stall this game out and farm to six items on their no damage champs that dont win late game.

The funny thing about CLG is, even though they are bad, they know what to do with a lead. So they're not going to just sit around for 20 minutes like Flash Wolves and piss it away, they're probably going to win in about five or ten minutes here.

Fly was a really strong Aurelion Sol player too, and he absolutely wrecked SSG during that series on it but obviously they failed to qualify
