It's just too bad that TDK had to start out 0-8 before finally getting their full team. Like making the playoffs is basically impossible now I think

Cloud 9 is getting exposed for being mechanically mediocre all around (except for Sneaky). Strategically they used to be able to wreck the rest of NA, but things are catching up to them and now they just aren't as good

TSM started a new ADC, Keith, over WildTurtle today. He played pretty well and they won. Not sure if this is a permanent change or just an attempt to give Turtle some motivation to work harder but either way Keith's a good player so I don't mind him starting.

I didn't see any of the games. Wasn't Keith the guy who subbed for Piglet?

So Nautilus top and Shen support happened yesterday? How did they look in those roles?

Can't wait to see Tahm when LCS catches up.. The meta is all over the place this season.

So am I the only one still watching LCS?

Man I've been so absurdly busy that I've fallen way behind, I do however check out the results every weekend and am just kinda depressed that NA seems to seriously blow right now and I'm expecting a slaughter at worlds

Pretty soon here I'll be back into my normal schedule and watching every weekend as per usual

TSM in the semifinals today plz win

I haven't watched anything except like 20 mins of CLG vs TiP yesterday. Actually been kinda bored with the totally shit season. It's all about those HS tourneys.

Did they win?

Yep they won, which guarantees their spot at Worlds. As pessimistic as I am about their chances to actually do anything substantial there, it's still great to see the team I've been a fan of for such a long time getting there for the third straight year. I'll be rooting for them hard no matter what!

Question now is what other NA teams are gonna be going? Or does it even matter?

With c9 in the gutter, I don't think it matters.

C L G! C L G! C L G!

Game one? Get rekt.

eat a dick

TSM's known for losing game 1 and winning the next 3 :D

Throw trading... TSM wins.

Exciting? maybe. Sloppy as fuck though.

Also, ESPN coverage.. Eat a dick "real sports"..

Poor Yorke :(

c9 reverse sweeps.. the last game was actually awesome..

Will they beat Liquid!?

c9 gauntlet run.. reverse sweeping their way to a world's victory... :P

yeah wtf was that from C9

how do they go from being one of the worst teams in the regular season to pulling off such a miracle

Poor Hai, he just wants to retire in his early 20s and the damn team is holding him down.

I've had a hard time getting into the MOBA scene, but I'll give this a try again.

I don't have the time to play like I used to but I still mess around with a friend doing 3s on occasion. I mostly just follow the LCS, as a replacement for sports. Hearthstone has become my primary game as of late, with some Diablo III since the new season just came out.

The game seems to be changing at a much faster pace now. I feel like every couple weeks there is a new champ or a patch with buffs/debuffs/new items that changes the meta. That's a good thing, but it has made my understanding of the game drop significantly.

I started playing Heroes of the Storm instead because of how much faster paced the games are. It's the lesser game and nowhere near as deep but still a ton of fun

As long as you're honest about it

No I completely acknowledge that it's meant to be the most casual of all mobas

Dear Fanboi,

What are your thoughts on Doublelift going to TSM? and losing Dyrus?

I'm expecting drama between Double and Loco to lead to one of them leaving within one season.

Ayyy lmao

Dyrus leaving makes me sad.com, he was the only guy left from the original TSM team I fell in love with (Dyrus, OddOne, Regi, Chaox, Xpecial). I still sometimes go back and watch games from that team to reminisce

So yeah at this point I care more about the team being good than having players I love, which means getting Doublelift is awesome. Dude's still top 2 NA and much closer than Turtle to being an international factor. Hopefully the personalities don't clash too much, maybe a change of scenery will really help Dlift become a more humble dude

Get in on the ground floor of this exciting new LoL club while there are still spots available.

i think i'm actually addicted to the game at this point. i'm considering giving up sleep hours just to get back up and play it.

Same. 5:30am and woke up when I had no desire to so LoL I guess.

im ready for comp if i didnt have to constantly carry you dorks

I can make anything about Ke$ha. Anything.

I now have a much better build that gave me some nice damage at least against beginner bots. Now I wanna learn how to harass and kite, especially early game so I can stomp in mid/late game.

6 kills in my first PVP match, i'm basically a god. too bad my teammates sucked and cost me the game

yeah im looking at you Batty

LargeMango sabotaged me.

lolz

also yeah i havent been reading whoops

Damn your strong starter Champion.

i did and what was it help me

Even Diana is a bit tricky early game, at least for a noob, since it's so easy to not start strong enough to use her well later, but I'll be damned if I was gonna turn down a freaky snake lady. Trying to actually play her is entirely a vanity project to justify all those influence points.
