I mean at this point you don't even need /s. What used to be a pipe dream is actually a possibility now.

I saw a good meme about SKT falling to the LCK #3 seed and getting in TSM's group.

Yeah I saw something on reddit.

"I mean as far as excuses go, having SKT in your group isn't a bad one."

I fully expect for TSM to get in a group with EDG and SKT and G2 will get some bs group like Machi and OMG.

Ok another 0-2 to JAG is slightly worrying. I still think they pull it together, but this streak is really bizarre.

Back to the championship skins discussion, if TSM were to ever win worlds (with current roster), what would they end up picking?

Hauntzer - Renekton/Gragas?
Sven - Lee/Gragas?
Bjergsen - Taliyah/Galio?
Doublelift - Trist/Ashe?
Biofrost - Brahm/Thresh?

I'm assuming they pick champs that played larger impacts into getting them to worlds.. those are some of the champs they have played a lot recently.

Syndra would be good for Bjerg.

Prior to last season riot picked the champs for them. Last year the players had more input.

Another thing to consider is do they do repeat skins? We already have Fanatic Fracas, skt Lee and Renekton and ssw thresh.

Huh, didn't know about the Renekton for some reason and I forgot about Gragas. Yeah, I wouldn't think they would want too many duplicates. That's why I didn't say Syndra for Bjerg because they just made one for Faker.

I'm pretty sure players have always been able to pick. I remember Faker specifically getting to pick Zed in Season 3.

We all already know Riot's balancing team is run by monkeys, but this takes the cake.

Still watching Kayn, doesn't look like he'll need any balance changes in 7.15. Player performance on him continues to improve as people get more experience


-checks Kayn winrate-

43%. Up from 39%. Still dead last for all junglers by 2 whole percent. Yeah he's fine.

Shadow form is just awful, it would be like a 30% win rate or worse for just that form.

Durkin is the only viable option, but he's trash until he evolves for the W knockup and feels like shite until 3 items. (Warrior > Cleaver/Deaths Dance > Deaths Dance/Cleaver)

Funny, because every Kayn that's on the enemy team seems to butt frick my teammates somehow....

He's a weird enough champ that they are going to let it play out for a while instead of panic buffing so that he's permabanned and you never know.

Quick update: We got some more in depth analysis back on Kayn sooner than predicted which is showing a bigger performance difference between Assassin and Darkin than we'd like. We'll be buffing Assassin a bit after all in 7.15 as a result (higher AD ratio on the R).

I mean I'm having great success building bruiser/tank and going Rhaast every time. But overall people aren't winning on him and he's not doing well in high elo. He needs some buffs.

That said, this is fun:

Riot would take the players wishes into account, but they would also pick skins for champions that were influential in the teams wins. Faker asked for an Ahri after season 3 worlds (maybe Zed was second choice) and has wanted one ever since, but riot has said no for whatever reasons. I think they say,"what champ so you want?" and either say yes or no pick another champ.

Popstar ahri was released after worlds 3 and that was part of the reason they said no

I have played against MAYBE 1 good Kayne since he's been out, and his team still lost the game. I have had numerous on my teams that have been average and other players carried him.

I'm honestly surprised he isn't broken. The past few champs that have been released (to my memory) have had been banned a good bit for the "new" period after their release. I don't see anyone banning Kayne.

He's designed to deal damage but doesn't deal enough fast enough. He thrives once he's tanky and fight last a while. Kinda like Darius. But yeah, that's not how he was intended to be played in the first place so it's kinda weird. But it's literally the only way he works right now. We'll see how he plays once they buff Assassin form ult next patch.
