I joined it as All Sun No Dairy but being online at the right time sounds like a nightmare, why do they need everyone online at once when drafting is done in turns?

Because people don't want a draft to take a week or longer.

MJ would be the type of guy to constantly talk poo poo to you over whispers all game long and then smile and wink at you with the smuggest look on his face during the post-game handshake after he won the game with a penta.

I"m just now getting around to watching TSM/CLG now (just saw the very end earlier) and for some reason was reading the tweets that they flash at the bottom of the screen. One of them was from former NBA player Rick Fox of all people.

it honestly sounds like carpal tunnel. watch your desk posture guys!

Yeah, I have changed that and also picked up a vertical mouse and split+contoured keyboard to help with prevention about a year ago. It's been pleasant.

I don't know anything about desk posture. Can you give me a good resource on it?

It's pretty simple, but here is a helpful pic from the company I bought my mouse from:



Basically, sit close with your elbows at a 90 degree angle and don't move your wrists constantly. Rotate your elbow to move your mouse left-to-right.

e: A good chair adjusted to you correctly is also extremely helpful to prevent nerd hunch-back and other back/shoulder/neck issues.

I've been informed that I missed the GREATEST THROW EVER. Correct?

It was certainly up there. Lost a Baron when up 5v3. Then walked one-by-one to defend a bottom turret and got three picked off in short succession. Giants pushed before the respawns.

Fredy won a game as Kennen so whether a champion is viable in a situation isn't as important as "Can he carry" and the answer is in most cases yes. Maybe not against FNatic in that match but just in general. It's not like he's an AD Carry trying to play Urgot.

Speaking of Urgot, I have an extremely stupid question about him: why isn't he ever played in top lane? I really like the ugly motherfucker and love his swap mechanic and heat seeking missiles.

Even with someone playing him 100% optimally his numbers still blow. He's not advantageous in any situation and picking him in competitive (or really ever) is just openly arrogant.

Like for example, if you wanted to play someone who throws projectiles and enters into melee range for a team fight do to things that help win fights, picking Gnar or Kennen would easily surpass Urgot's performance in every possible way.

Well, dang. I wish they would adjust/rebuild him so that he can play in top and/or jungle (but not be good at bot lane). Of the champs that never see play at any level, he's my favorite.

Is it just me or is it that the teams that have the most fun together are generally doing the best? Especially in the NA LCS where TSM and CLG are just having a party and happen to be at the top of the standings.

Winning solves (nearly) all problems.

Hypocrisy posted:

Unlike other players Xpecial is willing to publicly admit there are team problems when the player is still on the team and not say "no everything is great his english is so good" until that player gets tossed and then goes on about language problems and what not.

Maybe he's passive aggressive but he's actually being honest in his Vlogs and interviews which is something that I can appreciate.

That's also a great way to ruin relationships between yourself and your teammates. You keep that poo poo internal to the team only.

the main thing is TSM has been dedicated to funny joke comps recently. I assume this is like at the end of an nba season when you rest your starters and give chogath minutes

Cho'Gath was a highly-touted prospect and is the next breakout big, though. He can hold down the lane like few others.

e: also, his ability to disrupt the movement of opponents is understated and that's what you need from your bigs
