Why is Seraph still a LCS starter in 2017? Even Lira/Nisqy/Apollo can't carry his fat rear end.

He was really good vs Bjergsen last week. Which if you can do that you are probably not average. Seraph is a straight up shitter. Looks like a random soloq toplaner who asks for last pick and feeds his lane.

I only assume Seraph is still around because he speaks Korean and doesn't use an import slot

seraph reminds me of kikis a bit, in that they tend to waste pick priority for a player who won't perform well enough to justify that. that's partially on the player but also definitely on the organization. i wouldn't waste top lane pick priority on smeb let alone seraph.

It's a harsh assessment, but I think "shitter" is pretty accurate for a top lane LCS player in 2017 who, upon seeing the enemy team on blue side with Maokai, Lulu, and Kog doesn't instantly assume he's going to get camped by superleashed Xmithie. Didn't drop a ward, didn't play super defensive around the usual gank timings, nothing.

with how strong armor stacking is assassins arent gonna come back anytime soon, the mid pick priority right now is being heavily skewed by the jungle and ancient coin meta. if taliyah gets nerfed i expect she would be replaced by tf with roughly 85% efficiency, he's pretty close to being played as is

Just some ridiculously good play out of Darshan and Huhi. Holding Shockwave that long looking for the perfect moment to combo is incredibly impressive.

lee just can't kill the tanks fast enough and they outscale him. hell maokai can probably level 2 gank faster and more successfully than he can

I genuinely think there's some ancient curse hovering over CLG where they automatically lose if aphromoo is forced to play any of Karma/Janna/Lulu/Soraka.

Man keane is the definition of average. He has a good cassio and thats it. How is he losing in cs to a Taliyah who roamed twice? Huhi was ahead of him in cs all game as ori last game in same matchup.

Yeah, this game's over. Altec's several thousand gold ahead of Stixxay, Darshan can no longer fight Ssumday, and they once again drafted a comp with a single point of engage (Maokai). I have no idea why they keep putting together these comps that are 100% screwed if they fall behind in the early game.

keane broke into the league as an "anti-carry" as he was pretty good with very off meta counter picks, then other teams eventually figured out that you could just leave power picks up and he couldn't play them. this took much longer than it should have, but also recently i found out that a lot of teams don't bother to try and intentionally draft around the enemy team until like, deep playoff series so lmao

Keane is kind of a less good doinb. He's not terrible by any means, though, and apparently has a very good work ethic

i love doinb so im not gonna let that slide. doinb played off meta poo poo but like with actual purpose. full tank mid maokai is way better than mobi boots rush mid hecarim. also doinb is technically an assassin specialist, it's just that he doesn't necessarily always want to play the main carry. also the last lb game i recall watching doinb play he built an iceborn gauntlet. keane could never.

Also Doinb is a legit god on some champions like Viktor/Leblanc/Kassadin. He is also amazing at teamfighting even though his laning phase is just meh(career achievement:lost lane to shipthur). Him and Keane do have their odd picks but Keane has been basically a ori/cassio bot this year. Anyway this meta is great for 0 skill junglers like OmarGod, Reignover.

for all the hate huhi gets I think he is so much better than stixxay. he is better in teamfights, provides more pressure in lane n out of lane. Stixxay had like 2 good games in msi 2016 and people thinks he is world class adc. This guy regularly is behind in cs despite laning with aphro.

Hylissang has built an ardent censer on support Trundle. That seems like a well balanced item.

Like I said in the main thread, I wouldn't be surprised to see it changed around in some way in preseason. I like the idea behind it, but it's so goofily gold efficient on the major shielding supports, and especially on anyone who can apply the shield to multiple targets.

I know this is kind of a tough patch for banning phase, but you're probably asking for a loss if you're red side and don't first rotation ban Cho'Gath.
