Not sure how great of an idea it was to have matches happening at 7 pm on a Saturday east coast time.

He's not a terrible LB but I never see Fenix run away with the pick and she's such a low-farm champion that feels like a waste on him.

iSurrender: Aug 25, 2005; Now with 22% more apathy!

The real problem for IMT in game 2 wasnt the comp, it was Huni's refusal to play to the comp. If he sticks with the team their disengage is massively improved, but instead he's channeling Maknoon. (Also Olaf didnt fit the comp.)

Whenever Swift does something stupid, Doinb used to go in and try to distract the enemy team to save him. dade just doesn't give a gently caress. I wonder which thing is going to break first, Swift being stupid or dade not helping him when he is.

Also I never stop laughing every time I see SSSTANK

Flandre needs to learn to chill the gently caress out and all of a sudden Snake looks a lot better

# ? Jun 5, 2016 11:55

rabidsquid: Oct 11, 2004; LOVES THE KOG

Flandre has always been really, really good. But also really, really, really stupid. STANK is fairly limited. Also Kryst4l is better than Martin and I have no idea why Snake basically permanently benched him. Snake is the most Chinese LPL team.

C9/IMT was the closest I've seen. Otherwise it seemed to be a series of games of outclassed opponents

Check the OP if you are short on time you can hit up the highlight YouTube channel. I think they have a package up of the entire day of NA LCS that's under an hour long.

Thanks Wol for the LMS write-up. I added it to the OP.

I feel like I'm probably gonna continue mostly ignoring LPL until I see a post from rabidsquid grudgingly admitting that a team with an S3 KT Rolster member is good now, at which point I'mma relentlessly hype them up for the rest of that sesason

So, y'know, let me know if that ever happens man

Is everyone ready for Day 3 of Gods Chosen League?

Going to be a bunch of one sided matches today.

As funny as it is having LOD as your main carry he's extremely knowledgable about the game and probably knows where the jungler is at basically all times.

You should do an ultimate write up on the greatest team in the world to replace my highly biased lovely write up in the OP.

Doublelift loves talking poo poo for someone who's best known for being a douche and dragging his team down.

I loved how after they beat CLG, the interviewer tried to gently steer him away from embarrassing himself with more trashtalk.

TL should probably play Rookie of the Year Dardoch instead of Rookie of the Year runner-up Moon.

Apex is basically gravity from last year. They'll beat some good teams but never really be considered a top team.
