Holy hell that fnatic botlane looks sad. Jesiz said he did pretty well in KR soloq but as we could tell with Keith it means nothing. Well atleast he will have decent mechanics for support because he use to play a role that actually required some such as adc/mid. Might be like a cheap corejj at best. Caps though I have high hopes for him he was bodying everyone in EU challenger scene. He will be as strong as most EU lcs mids I think unless he has nerve issues on stage but he also played in turkish lcs so it shouldnt be that bad.

RealFoxy posted:Hopefully soon NA teams will learn that players like Reignover are once in a lifetime and not the average. More often than not a Korean player comes over and they're just marginally better than any other players are, and the investment in teaching them English and making sure they fit in with the team is usually seasons long so your investment doesn't turn out until a year or a year and a half later; that's a huge risk sometimes when a Pro's career is usually 3 years. literally took three posts to prove me right, never change eu

I'm gonna be genuinely weirded out if we don't see SKT Peanut in the next two weeks. They absolutely have the money to do it and I can't think of anyone better to put on the starting roster, unless kkOma's got a lot of faith in Blank.

Looks like that speculated KT roster was correct: Smeb, Pawn, and Score are all confirmed to have been signed. This is going to be one hell of an LCK season.

RealFoxy posted:Although I believe that Peanut could absolutely become the player that SKT needs because of Kkoma's coaching, I think SKT would be better off finding a Jungler that already does what they want them to. Through both Incarnations of SKT they've never had the KaKao/InSec type jungler and they've done just fine without them because of how they play around the map. If you're looking for a Bengi-type Chaser is a lot more aggressive but similarly really knows how to work the map but I think SKT would probably just go with another rookie or a lesser-known Jungler Chaser looked bad on LZ but I agree with u he would fit well with SKT's methodical playstyle which was also what made him excel in Jin Air. Anyway everyone looks bad on LZ minus Expession/Crash/Frozen.

I'd argue that Pawn is a pretty solid midlaner that just isn't incredibly flashy or anything so is thus underrated by people who only care about big plays and 1v5 carries when in actuality it's a bad thing to have 4/5 people playing together that have never played together and are all playing high econ carries. Also part of the reason may be because Pawn has played with both Mata and Deft and thus will help in building team synergy better than just signing random flashy mid laner 32.

Pawn looked pretty good in the games he played at worlds imo not good enough to carry dumpsterlove but still. Also im kinda worried for TSM who still have Wildturtle in their house. I thought WT might be a good buy for EF but TSM can surely get someone better. I don't understand why they are so scared of getting a Korean player.

Ssumday is going to end up on SKT which is hilarious, considering their history. It's also pretty funny since Duke (who used to be on KT) would be dropped for him. SKT Peanut is the best thing every, btw. Also totally unrelated but this Biofrost thresh play is really sick: https://clips.twitch.tv/tsm_doublelift/InquisitiveWolverineHassanChop

[lmao they still won worlds] skt is a great example of being the least worst or something because they had obvious issues and had to pull a jungler off the bench who basically never played and even ended up giving him a champion that he's never played competitively ever and they still won worlds

Pray apparently had a stream on AfreecaTV where he was playing with Peanut and he dropped a whole bunch of hints that Peanut might be picked up by SKT, including Peanut meeting someone important in the org and having a lunch with them. Possibly RIP the NA Peanut dreams.

Misaya/U/pawn had to play with clearlove unfortunately. Imo he looked as good as Scout in the games at worlds. The intz loss was with Pawn but he was only one playing well and they both lost to H2k.

According inven rumor posted on reddit. SKT trying out a bunch of toplaners so it might not be Profit who is their starter. It says Flame tried out for the spot too. Also that LZ are gonna get two returning koreans as mid jungler. Maybe its dandy along with some other kr mid. He had issues with Dade in the past so Idon't know about that.
