    Let's hope CLG can get a better 'grasp on the meta' than IMT did. We may see finally see support Vladamir in the LCS.

    Perhaps we could do something where higher ranked players spectate or review replays instead (since you can do that through sites like op.gg, regardless of server)?

    That CLG-TSM series.

    Blue side draft OP. Ekko free every time TSM lost. So tilted.

    Fuck Ekko.

    That is all.

    ----

    Anyone else think aphromoo was out of order in the interview? There's a time and a place to air your grievances with someone else, and just after winning the finals is not it. Whatever happened to professionalism and good sportsmanship?

    Aphro has lost any respect I had for him.

    I gained more respect. CLG has always been a high strung, dramatic team. Double straight betrayed them to go to TSM, and he just beat his brother-turned-enemy in a 5 game grand finals. Thats got to feel sweet.

    And if you consider Aphro's journey to this point as a challenger, then a player with nerve issues and now champion, its even more justified that he basks a little.

    Having watched CLG for a while, those players he mentioned (Dexter, Seraph, Nien, Link) all were good players who were under a shitload of pressure and crumbled to some degree. I think its really cool of him to let them know they are still remembered.

    Also, fuck people who hear a little bit of trash talk and go 'oh, thats unprofessional'. Trash talk is what makes games fun and interesting. People like that are whats ruining games.

    Is that how it happened? I was under the impression that it was CLG who dropped him.

    Double didn't betray CLG, he was kicked off the team by Hotshot before Regi gave him an offer. Where's the betrayal in that?

    Trash talk is all fine before a game, but take your win in good grace and celebrate with your head held high, rather than kicking someone who's already down. What Aphro did wasn't in good fun, like mocking DLs play, it was a personal attack based on past grievances, from someone who he considered a brother, and had no place in a post game interview.

    Unless the story somehow changed later in a way that I am not aware of, not only did CLG kick DoubleLift, it was Aphro who told them, "It's him or me."

    I stand corrected.

    Aphro is STILL a boss motherfucker though, just now for dropping that kid like a bad habit then trash talking him afterwards LOL.

    Sounds to me like you just don't want to lose respect for Aphro regardless of the situation.

    They hugged it out right after the game, though. That was kind of kicking him while he was down at that point.

    I just like trash talk. Also I've been watching Aphro play for like 3 years at this point, a little bit of talk wouldnt change my opinion of him tbh.

    Do you guys really think there shouldnt be trash talk? I'm reminded of when Hai got reprimanded for giving someone the finger on stream, this is getting to be some nanny state bullshit. They disabled all chat in pro games and everything. I also watch counterstrike and they dont have any of this policing stuff, plenty of trash talk and it doesnt affect them.

    We get enough bitching about this on reddit. He won, he talked smack. Good for him.

    So I'm liking the free rotation at the moment. The number of Azirs I've beaten with my girl Lux has been staggering. Also, is it just me or is Master Yi the go to for junglers? He's the bane of my gaming at this point. I just can't deal with his close and I don't have the movement speed to escape.

    Any half-decent player will tear through people on yi in lower levels.

    In other news I can't get over how much fun I'm having on Kayle.
