Played a 5 man premade last night with some peeps from this thread.

It was a slow bleed to the other team that looked bleak.

They take barons, all dragons, then elder, slowly but surely taking our inhibs.

The nexus turrets fall next. The nexus hit points are dwindling.

The last remaining enemy, eve is auto attacking our nexus and with one last hit, she pops zhonyas to avoid dying (she had sub 100 hp left with multiple members of our team attacking her.

She flashes as her zhonyas proc finishes, only to be killed and our nexus sitting there with what seems to be half of a hit point left.

Few seconds later, our inhibs respawn. We win a couple team fights, take the next baron and proceed to end the game.

I'm pretty sure the entire enemy team is sitting in their computer chairs right now with their wrists slit.

If that had been us, I probably would have just logged off for a couple weeks.

Piglet limps his way onto an NA Academy team. Golden Guardians signed him. His fall has been really sad.

ETA: It's Clutch Gaming not GG.

I'm seeing Clutch Gaming.

Probably wanted to take a year off but not retire and wait for NA residency in 2 splits. He'll be a hot commodity next year with that.

Urite. I misremembered. I saw the headline pop up a few hours ago but it's been a while.

The best part of that article is the Lebron reference.

I find it funny that he specifically says that some of his comments aren't because he's salty, but he sure does sound salty sometimes.

I really like League and I've grown to enjoy the LCS and watching competitive play, but articles about esports like this crack me up. Warpath?

Yup. Super dramatic. Almost WWE comical.

Side note:
Not sure why TSM wouldn't make one more run at worlds with the team intact but use a new Jungler.
I'm not sure Zven/Mithy is a substantial upgrade over DL/BF. But, MY is a huge upgrade over Sven.

I told all of you that the TSM Jungler was the weak link and not world-class. Told you. Repeated. Re-emphasized. And, I was so right.
Man it feels good to be a gangster.

I agree with you though. I thought they would get a replacement/sub for Sven and go with the other four.

I think the Zven/Mithy pickup is to fix communication issues. I read somewhere that in worlds, if the team was in trouble, some players (supposedly Biofrost and Sven) would almost shutdown and not communicate.

I don't know much about him, but Mithy is supposedly really good at communication and a world class shot caller, and Zven is the DL of EU.

MY is going to need some time to get settled in I think. I watched some of him at All Stars and he was really good early it seemed but fell off in the late game.

I'm not sure anyone disagreed with that sentiment.

Team Liquid introduces their Alienware Training Facility w/ Olleh

What a sick arse facility, and good lord they show like 50 Alienware 240Hz monitors being brought in and 50 of those Aurora PC's. 90" and 120" screens from Dell for vod review dayum.

Also, Olleh has quickly become my favorite support in LCS and one of my favorite players. Loved him on IMT.

That's pretty wild. If this is the first, the other teams will follow, kind of like college football. The bar is always raised.

Very intrigued by the direction the esports scene is going though.

Yeah, a bunch of other orgs are working towards getting a similar facility. Team houses are apparently dead and won't be around much longer.
