Well first of all G2 is boring as frick to watch. Second watching them win another LCS title just to waste it all at MSI has to fricking sting. Third the entire region feels really down.

I mean TSM isn't going to do anything at MSI (SKT crown incoming), but at least it feels like NA currently has some hope.

I wonder if EU interest in NA is that much higher than NA interest in EU.

I for one rarely, if ever, watch the EULCS.

Syndra was banned the first game.

In every other game, the team that picked her won. Not saying its the only reason, but something to think about.

I guess having a point and click ult that can all but one shot people is good.

Also one of the few AoE stuns in the game.

I don't think EU is necessarily more interested in NA than vice versa. I just think the current iteration of EULCS is pretty fricking boring. The group system sucks, the talent level is down, and G2 plays really boring.

The two regions used to be closer in viewership, and I think with some tweaks they could be again.

All of EU's most marketable/best players come to NA so there's definitely more viewership toward NA from EU than vice versa.

Literally just sat in and out of queue for the last 20-25 minutes, because people keep waiting until right before champ select is over to dodge. In fricking normals.

Still never got a game. frick it, I'll play tomorrow

I keep up with LCS as far as who wins and such, but rarely do I ever sit down and watch a series like I did for TSM vs C9 yesterday. That was really fun to watch.

It's remarkable how good those guys are. They make stupid mistakes like anyone else - like Turtle's flash/ult combo that totally whiffed in game 3 I think - but their team fights are ridiculous to watch and mean so much. You lose a team fight after 30 min and you have a good chance of losing..

He whiffed that a few times in the series.

He also LOVES flashing into fights for some reason, especially on low mobility champions.

Thinking back on it, he did flash a few times into dumb situations.

I don't get caught up in teams but I do like TSM, mainly because Bjergsen is incredible, and I have quite of few friends who really like C9 and were tilted after the end of G5 last night. Was pretty funny.

When TSM loses I'm like "eh, whatever" but some people take that LCS stuff pretty seriously.

I am so confused with League match making and MMR.

I can go "D" on a toon and win the game and go "S" and lose over and over.

I can play Bottom, not feed, win the lane and lose horribly. I go support thinking maybe I just do enough damage and win the lane and still lose. I go top, win lane etc, lose the game....

Im like 2-18 over the past two days. I use all the right runes, masteries, builds, etc. Still fricking lose.

Its upsetting. In my 1st 10 games I had an MMR at around 1600. Got placed in Silver I. Won the next 2/4, then have lost the proceeding 14........ 14 in a row. WHY!

We were played the other night and got a diamond and a platinum on our team. The 3 of us group were bronze or silver

Needless to say, those two kicked arse.

My experiences in this game are very strange...

I'll go weeks without a whole lot of negative interactions with other players, then go 8-10 games in a row with just toxic people, usually ending in losses for me.

Last night we were losing 12-6 at about 18-20 min and pretty far behind on gold and the enemy ADC starts chirping "What rank are you guys again?" "ff 20?" "Please stop wasting our time, you're bad, just ff"

So, being that we were in a 5 premade, decided to screw that guy and turtle for 20-25 min. We lasted all we could - maybe till about 50 min mark, had a couple in base aces (that we couldn't do anything with because of their super minions), a Baron steal, and quite frankly, focused the adc and blew him up every time we could.

One of those matches that you lose, and you had no real chance to win, but took it late in the game and was a good time.

Sometimes people deserve to be trolled or flamed.

Last night we had a 4 man premade. We played against a team that went all adc champions. I was support and had the only person that wasn't in our premade as my adc. He was awufl, which is fine, it was normals, no big deal.

Bot tower gone at 6 minutes, and this jinx is getting absolutely destroyed. I'm Braum and doing what I can to help, but she just kept walking up to the Ashe/Tristana comb and tanking damage for no reason.

After we lose tower, our jungler is bot side, the enemy team walks up on us, he casts his ranged ability (ekko), hits a couple minions in the process, no one dies and the fight disperses .

Our Jinx proceeds to call our jungler useless and flame him because he took a couple of his minions.

Instances like this, I'm down to troll and intentionally try to tilt people.

Actually, I took a cannon minion with an AA right in front of him because I'm an alpha player. I figured he might be pissed, but I felt like he deserved it for losing tower in 6 mins.

Played with a Riot mod this morning before work. Pretty cool guy. His chat was a different font in champ select. Had no clue until I asked. I figured it was something like that.

Funny, played two games, and he was on the other team the first time and my team the second time. We had to 20 min surrender first game because our sup afked.

When I got to the second game I recognized the name. He told me sorry for last game and he would do what he could to make sure the afk sup from game before get's reviewed.

We won the next game thank goodness. He was pretty good. Not incredible by any means but you can tell he plays a lot.

So I got placed in Silver I for solo, however my Flex 5v5 is Bronze IV lol. what I have noticed on the Bronze side of things is that I have to constantly ping and tell people what to do. Just going to silver I have had a much more positive experience in people being more aware.

Also in the Bronze league, people rage far more quickly. Like, nothing is ever their fault. Like NEVER. lol.

The higher silver MMR, people do make mistakes, but I see more games get turned around by the other team making mistakes late game.

Late game is far more punishing on mistakes than early.

I learned an awful lot about my play and team play in flex.
