I have to admit I don't "get" the long running joke you guys do where you make up crazy names and then pretend to have strong opinions about how that guy is playing for the fictional official league of legends team of a restaurant or airplane. I understand its something to do when theres no league news but I never got the appeal.

Afreeca got eliminated by a challenger team in Kespa Cup. I think its the same team that beat Kongdoo, Griffin. Can't tell if Afreeca are really bad now without Marin or Griffin good.
Griffin's jungler, Tarzan, is really good, but mostly I think you should attribute this loss to teams (especially the LCK ones) not taking the KeSPA Cup all that seriously.

Kongdoo got knocked out by DAMWON Gaming

Oh ya DAMWON gaming or DWG, their toplaner nuguri is really good actualyl high rated.

Tarzan is rank 2 in Korea only below deft.

Splyce getting Odoamne, Xerxe and Nisqy. Bot lane will be Kobbe and Kasing.

Also, GBM is gonna sign with SuperMassive. What a career trajectory

Apparently Huni is joining C9 and not Echofox. So C9 basically got another ex SKT toplaner to replace Impact.

This probably means a native jungler for C9. I think Moon would be a good choice. I would rate him as good as Contractz.

On the other hand, those ~rumors~ were probably assuming that Aphromoo was staying on CLG.

This would be a little awkward for Svenskeren since that means he's probably either subbing or going back to EU. Based on the current roster rumors, there are only a few teams that could field him without another mandatory substitution to comply with the IMP. If C9 is planning to start Licorice, it would work for him, as would subbing with CG, FOX, or CLG, but every other team has two non-jungle imports. If he's subbing, I'm betting FOX for the inevitable Dardoch implosion.

Olleh hasn't officially been confirmed on TL either


So essentially Bio/Olleh are going to be on CLG, or Aphro/Bio/Olleh potentially on TL/100T or Bio/Olleh on CLG.

3 supports with 3 teams, it's just going to be a domino once the first one is announced probably.

Speaking of which, Biofrost to CLG. Not surprising since you can't field Reignover, Huhi, and Olleh.

That bot lane is about to be real loving bad.

Like Bio is a great support don't get me wrong but he needed Double to really tell him when to be aggressive and when to back off. When TSM had Wildturtle that bot was getting punked on all the time. And Stixxay ain't double.

Biofrost stabs TSM in the back and joins their rivals.

Ghost was lowkey rookie of the split in Spring along with Teddy but in summer his performance fell off hard but that was the case for whole of BBQs.

Well I think Ghost/Tempt are decent carries. Ignar/Trick should be very good upgrades for them. I would have also replaced their toplaner with Expect or some challenger player.

I think 100T will be a good team depending on the bot lane and has the added benefit of having Meteos.


But that is such a stupid loving turn of events. Contractz is a much better cost-resource (NA Resident over Import) while bringing the same degree as Sven, what a stupid loving choice.

Called it. Guess we'll get to see if it was really just Bjergsen's dampening field turning him into a ward bot or not.

God drat it. He really was decent enough during the regular season so it’s not like they hired Wild Turtle or something, but Jankos would have been a great pick.

Doesn't that just beat all
i mean jensen is just as demanding as bjergsen as far as jungler support so he'll probably play similarly. someone also previously mentioned that contractz felt stifled by being constantly tied to jensen. but tsm won summer, right?
