If you guys are bored of the usual meta, you should watch this Chinese league where Sivir is the Queen ADC. I've really been enjoying watching it the last few days, it feels very different to the usual NA meta, it seems to be very reliant on technical skill more than anything.

AParadox posted:The LPL casters are really awful, they spend more time laughing their own jokes and fellating each other than actually commenting the game. The games are at least interesting enough, omg, edg, lgd and ig are looking really good. OMG especially since I expected team synergy issues with carry players in 3 different positions but they looked great so far, each having their own time to shine. Same thing with LGD, looking forward to Uzi vs Imp and Flame vs Gogoing in the same match. Yeah the casters the downside to the LPL, but I think they'll get there with some practice.

Libertine posted:Piglet was getting chunked by Sneaky because he wasn't running masteries. It's hard to say anything definitive about that game given that. No it's not, Piglet is overhyped and ordinary on his best day, seriously, no masteries is a mistake people wouldn't even make in soloqueue let alone in a pro match.

Flameingblack posted:Or Xpecial cries. He already did last week in his post game interview with Keith after they carried their team to a win. Xpecial made special mention of how much easier it was to communicate to Keith and, at least to me anyway, seemed very passive aggresive about working with Piglet over someone like Keith.

Previous Jesus posted:It's still too early to write Piglet off based on one bad game though. The problem is Keith/Xpecial totally dominated and carried their team to victory last week, and this week Piglet forgot his masteries, there's no other way to look at it that to wonder why Piglet is there over Keith. I'll grant that it's not totally Piglet's fault, a coach or manager should have been straight on that poo poo once he moved over from Korea, but still, it's a pretty major fuckup.

Lightning Knight posted:Edit: Holy poo poo I'm just now getting around to watching the Gravity/Coast game and Phreak looks sooo old. He's not even that old either, he can't be older than 35. What the hell man. I had a "oh poo poo" moment the other day when I looked up Lemonnation and found out he's 25, not the 35-40 year old I though he would have to be with that receding hairline.

Servaetes posted:Outta curiosity did they ever say why exactly they run patches behind? It's kind of jarring seeing the really powerful picks from a few months ago all the time. If a patch comes out this week they'll run this weekends games on the last patch so they've got a chance to suss out the patch changed before having to play competitive games on it, the patch they're on now where Ahri is ridiculous is only like a week old.

It's funny how the only way Piglet can be relevent in the game is to pick a strong solo dueler and splitpush while the team does whatever else it wants. Basically, I think the language problem is a bigger problem than they're letting on and they let Piglet go Vayne so he can run around and do whatever he wants without having to communicate much and still hopefully carry. FAKEEDIT: Thanks Xpecial for confirming my theory!

rabidsquid posted:So do y'all who unironically think they should have kept Keith believe Piglet is the worst ADC in NA or do you believe that a bunch of LCS teams are keeping worse ADCs than Keith on their roster because of ??? Whats the KDA difference between the 2 games Keith played vs the 3 that Piglets plays? Isn't Keith something like 18/3 and Piglet is like 5/5 or something? I'm too lazy to look up the actual numbers.

I like Krepo casting, his little tidbits that come from having played a decent amount of competetive is more interesting than the usual joking or random ramblings.

Luna Was Here posted:gonna save this for later It's true though, Doublelift is hugely inconsistent compared to other ADC's, everyone thinks he's the best because of that one time when he did this amazing stuff on Vayne or Kalista, or whatever, but the times where he does something like that is outnumbered by the 20 other games where he plays like dogshit.

I like how the observer knew what was happening there and kept vision locked for Giants till the last minute, nice touch.

The real question is why Riot doesn't disable Ahri in competitive for this patch where she's broken as gently caress.

Just watching Sneaky duo with Aphro, and it just hit me, I'm really loving surprised there aren't extremely strict rules in their contracts forbidding duo streaming with other team's players.

Disinterested posted:Why? There is no good reason why not unless you think it's an avenue for poaching. C9 are reasonably friendly with current CLG as a whole at the moment, and duoing with another pro ADC is better practice than duoing with a yolo queuer who is off comms. So why don't teams in traditional sports train together? It gives Sneaky and Aphro an excellent chance to learn in detail each others tells and playstyle even better than they would by playing against each other, which is pretty huge at the LCS level when alot of other things are equal.

That was some soloqueue poo poo, especially Piglet walking into it way too late.

K8.0 posted:I predict that next season, Doublelift is still on CLG and at least two of Aphromoo, Link and Xmithie are gone and wind up being more successful with other teams. I dunno DoubleLift and Aphro are probably the best bot lane combo in lane, but when they're not laning they both go poo poo.

Catching up on the EU games, and drat there's just so much more atmosphere from the crowd compared to NA, listening to the caster's trying to talk over a roaring crowd just adds so much more to the event even from just watching the stream.

Looking back now, I think the saddest thing in the entire split was that Urgot became a legit top tier pick, and the #1 Urgot player, the one and only, imaqtpie wasn't on a pro team anymore
