    League Of Legends

    Nope, but when you improve at your personal play to a point where you don't need your team to be good at your current tier to advance then it stops. If your personal skill level can't consistently win your lane in fine fashion then you deserve to be where you are anyway MMR wise. So no point in...

    2013 NFL Season

    I just don't see the appeal. I mean yes it would be a new market (that the Bucs would probably end up in), but the whole situation would be absolute shit for every player and staff member involved. Although the home field advantage from opposing team travel weariness would probably be huge. They...

    Unless Corki/Ez/trist have their flash up as well they probably aren't surviving Fizz/Ahri/Zed/Kass. Its the combination of two movement abilities that will often save them. What saves adc's against assassins is good positioning pre fight and at the start of a fight, and good peel from their...

    2013 NFL Season

    For comparison Mike McCarthy had gone in seven seasons... Sub 500: 35-12 500 teams: 10-3 Over 500: 21-25 So thats your biggest rival in the NFL under their current head coach with a similar record against bad teams (Lovie is slightly better), a better record against average teams, and a...

    All you need to know about Lovie Smith, why the Bears fired him, and why nobody else has hired him is in his record. Against sub five hundred teams: 49-15 (great!) Against five hundred teams: 11-8 (Decent) Against teams that were or went better then five hundred: 19-38 (fucking pitiful)...

    She's stronger then Corki because she doesn't have a bad support match aside from Soraka who is just a crap support in general. If the Jinx is competent at landing W then it almost automatically translates in to landing your supports CC, then Jinx E... I think you see the point. It also works...

    Nasus is a very good top in certain lanes. Anyone that isn't cant push him back off the creeps or kill him just outright loses if the Nasus is a proficient Q farmer. You're right about Jax and Renekton being good early Nasus counters. Shen lose hard to him though unless he gets some good ult...

    So just got plat! went from bronze to plat this season. Best thing was I got it in one Gold 1 to plat 5 promo series. Offer is out there for anyone that needs gold. I'll duo with you since I made my goal and no way in hell I'll make it too diamond before the season ends.

    League Of Legends

    Yah Hotshot did this, and a couple of people I know have tried it as well. They intentionally dodge their promos from bronze and win pretty much every non promo game. So their MMR has them matched with high plat/diamond players. Bronze versus Diamond!

    You've got 3 weeksish. I don't as long as you don't hit a massive losing streak and are able to play every day it shouldn't be that bad to get to promo for gold.

    I'm pretty boring and probably won't use this mode to its fullest potential, but it will be nice to have a dedicated place where you always get the role and character you want so that you can practice with them. I dislike playing normals but its the only place to go if I want to practice a...

    Jinx is on perma ban status for me right now. I've had two lose out of the ~14 games that I've seen her in. Out of those two only one lost lane. Its disgusting what synergy she has with Zyra, Thresh, Fiddle, and leona. This may be slight exaggeration but she basically has a mini ashe arrow on...

    I really do miss the days off AP Ali though. Even if it made what people view as OP now look totally unimpressive. Taking someone from 100 to 0 with a LB/DFG and your combo while tanking their whole team and taking absolutely zero damage.

    League Of Legends

    Because he has high cooldowns and crap ratios. So dedicating a lot of farm to get him tanky or damage capable is pretty worthless. I'm sure he could lane up there and farm around people but his kill potential would be nil.

    League Of Legends

    Since you said years, Ali isn't a viable mid or jungle anymore. He's also a highly situational support because he has some pretty horrid matchups in lane. Running around as black ali is great though so just do it anyway.

    Yup. I just think the one and done of the top ranked teams is not good for LoL as an e-sport because it kills interest. I mean look at Fnatic. They got destroyed by Vulcun and then had an embarrassing win against GGEU that they actually came close to losing as their first two efforts in the...

    League Of Legends

    Yup. Getting a million Mineski/GGEU games and then only seeing C9 getting one Bo3 against a rampaging (at the time) Fnatic? Horrible tournament design. Invite 12-16 teams and run a losers bracket so the good matchup's that we want to see can actually happen. Either that or run everybody through...

    Well, SKT looked really good last night. I do have to say that I'm pretty bummed we didn't get a close final set though, the only game that was even interesting was game two. Game three looked like a diamond vs bronze stomping. Outside of the analyst desk and game two, watching the event felt...

    I didn't say it was like being a doctor, I said it was viewed as viable, instead of a waste of time for the most part. Which it is, especially in comparison with the US. The rest of your point is valid though.

    Two major things lead to the disparity. The first is that e-sports is actually viewed as a viable career opportunity in Korea. They as a culture already (for the most part) got over the "stop playing that game and start looking for a real job/education" mentality, and for those that have the...

    What's not to believe? Aside from Gambit more then half a year ago and the rare one game in a set here and there the NA and EU teams just don't beat Korea/China. Ozone was the only Korean/Chinese team that looked at all weak in this tournament and they have gone through coaching changes since...

    Yup, her damage is really bad overall and just abysmal late game. You either get really far ahead in early and stay relevant until about 25 mins when you become a walking ult, or you don't get the early ganks and all you are good for is your ult for the entirety of the game. J4 is flat out...

    A wins a win, but Bears played way too sloppy today. You can't give up that many points in three different phases of the game and expect to make the playoffs. Nice to see the Catler lead a game winning drive instead of throwing a game losing pick though.

    World War Z is hands down a better story because it actually tells you know, a story. Zombie Survival guide is literally what it sounds like, a pretty dry and straightforward hand book for surviving a Zombie outbreak.

    I just don't have faith that riot can tune support play to a point where they aren't kings of the battlefield or the current ward/aura bitch. Supports carry too much CC/utility to allow them to scale hard in to late game as most of them are currently constructed. There is a reason that support...

    Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs

    Since I have been really critical of the game so far, it does have its good points to be fair. The story itself is much more horrific and just plain better then the story in TDD. If only the game game play and implementation of the monsters was better then you would have a game that blow's away TDD.

    People hate playing anything that isn't flashy and obviously carrying the team. Sadly because of the design behind most support style champs your impact isn't extremely obvious or flashy. That's why you have people saying if I can't Blitz/Thresh then I can't support. Because even with just a...

    I just can't see how a support is going to ever be anything more then a ward/aura item underdeveloped team bitch. People play for efficiency and with three lanes and one jungle for your five players the most efficient method of gold acquisition is to link one source of farm to one player for the...
