I dont think so but in the process of looking at esportspedia to find out i discovered apparently MonteCristo was voted "most pretentious" at his high school and i really really hope that's true

The new coach of CLG is Trick 2 G and Sir Echeeze .

I hope more teams take advantage of the new rule enabling them to use substitutes whenever they want to, because some day there's a chance that CLG goes full CLG and puts trick2g into a game and he's stomped by a competent jungler.

They can't really use the subs during regular season so I doubt we'll see anything happen with them at all. No team is really gonna bust out a sub for the first time in the playoffs either :I

Been trying to go through NA and EU and figure out general power rankings for teams. Trying to predict NA is such a trainwreck right now. Among CLG, Dig, TDK, NME, Gravity and Team8, who's supposed to win games against each other right now?

I don't think C9 is going to come out looking very strong. If they can't maintain their shotcalling then there's not a whole lot to differentiate them from TSM, and TSM probably stronger lane for lane. TIP and Liquid might also give them a solid fight for second. I could see them ending up in third at the end of the split.

Every NA team has glaring deficiencies, but I don't trust any of them to be exploited domestically.

I think C9 isn't gonna suffer in shotcalling because Meteos has moved into that role. But I don't know if he knows how to exploit somebody like TSM. The top five will be C9 TSM TIP TL and CLG, with the sixth probably rotating between Gravity, t8 and Dig. NME will be fighting for relegation and TDK is going to be a giant wet fart that can't do anything because they only got in by using (effectively) a ringer. CLG will get knocked out of the first round of playoffs again, As will T8/Gravity. I think C9 is gonna come out on top overall and Liquid could probably take 2nd if they get good bracket placing (Against TSM instead of C9 this time round). Unless TIP shows real fight I'm betting they're gonna be in 4th and the NA Worlds crew will be TSM C9 and Liquid.

I guess CLG is better but double lift is still on the team so they're all going to hate each other by mid split. C9 should be worse since they always lose lanes and win games by what a high school foot ball coach would call "trick plays" & they lost the guy who called that for them in return for maybe only losing two lanes every game. But who knows incarnation is actually pretty good at basically everything so maybe. Team liquid should be good but won't be. TSM may or may not have a better showing at worlds than they did at MSI but even if they never improve or change in any way NA teams can't abuse them like that, mostly because they're afraid of standard lanes vs TSM and NA junglers and top laners are extremely bad by and large. Like think about how bad TSM looked at MSI and remember how completely and totally they clowned everyone in playoffs.

TDK may be awful but the majority of NA is right down there with them. Out of the Bottom 6 Clusterfuck teams, I feel like Gravity and Team8 should on paper come out on top assuming no roster changes by the end of the season. CLG missing the playoffs feels totally believable to me. Then again, it's CLG, so who knows - maybe they play their asses off and look like a world-class team for 3 weeks again and scrape into the playoffs that way.

Then again, it's CLG, so who knows - maybe they play their asses off and look like a world-class team for 3 weeks again and scrape into the playoffs that way. Dig's fundamental problems probably haven't been fixed, so they're on the bottom. NME, I don't know, but they weren't getting hyped like Origen in the challenger scene so I don't have much hope for them not getting out of the fight for Relegation. T8 doesn't seem to have made many changes to improve that much, while Gravity's got an unknown quantity in their Jungle. CLG, IMO, is gonna find itself in that position of "never poo poo, never fantastic" because of the organizational problems. They could have individually skilled players, but they don't seem to work as well as a team as the top four. The only thing i think might surprise us is Gravity. I feel like with Altec/Bunny they've got an extremely powerful bot lane and if their jungle doesn't turn out to be Avalon levels of suck, they could become a contender.

Meteos is head and shoulders above Santorin in impacting games and exploiting other team's weaknesses. C9 isn't as reliant on their midlaner getting ahead as TSM is for their strategies to work. And come on, Sneaky is better than Turtle.

I guess you could give sneaky more Game Points in madden pro league 2015 but its completely irrelevant since they put him in an empty frozen lane every game and the actual question is does lust boy do better than lemon nation in a free roam situation to which the answer is basically paul bunion laughing and making lumberjacks fall over. Also the knock on meteos has always been that his Game Impact or GI is way lower than it should be since he mostly spends his time accidentally taking blue buffs & power farming.

Seraph allegedly spoke English too. I like MSI because people have taken Keven's gimmick and unironically applied it to Fnatic and the EU LCS.

C9 isn't as reliant on their midlaner getting ahead as TSM is for their strategies to work. I'd like to think Meteos is head and shoulders above Santorin, but their last matches together saw similar performances from both. They aren't carry jungles (Unless Meteos feels like he has to carry this poo poo and whips out AD VI) so it's kind of a draw. Incarnation and Bjerg will, at most, be a draw. Dyrus had a much better spring split than Balls. Sneaky is beter than Turtle by a lot, but Lustboy is better than Lemon and support effects the early game a lot more so that is also a wash. In the end Bjerg vs Incarnation seems like it is the match up that will effect things the most and I have heard 0 hype coming out of the NA scene with his arrival. No one seems to be blown away. He looks pretty average in soloqeueu. Maybe he'll surprise me, but hard carrying against TSM seems really unlikely.
