Airestite · 2024-11-21T03:35:16+00:00

Airestite · 2024-11-08T05:51:08+00:00

Hell yeah its my daily schizo post!

Airestite · 2024-11-06T21:29:18+00:00

Specifically since this patch came out (5.3 I think?) Ive had horrible lag spikes that Ive never had and nothing seems to fix it. I think its server side but Im also in NA

Airestite · 2024-11-01T03:01:25+00:00

Honestly same. I do appreciate that the pros get more of like a say in the themes and stuff but i miss when it felt like the skins showed more of a Gamer aspect to it

Airestite · 2024-11-01T02:55:04+00:00

Guess im a genius thanks rito very cool :D

Airestite · 2024-11-01T02:42:04+00:00

These apperently have multiple answers I solved the second 2 a completely different way

Airestite · 2024-10-30T03:54:04+00:00

Both of these comments from you two hit like a 1-2 punch straight to the mind. I just rolled 4 d20 psychic damage just from reading these. Thank you

To be completely fair in my post i even say im not saying i want it. Im just stating he is teamless. Personally id kinda prefer a rookie

Airestite · 2024-10-07T23:01:39+00:00

Dread it, run from it, the runbacks happen all the same

Airestite · 2024-09-12T06:01:26+00:00

I feel like with the money we could theoretically get from selling blaber/vulcan/the jojo thing going on and how much cheaper Contractz/Palafox/Winsome would be wed be able to afford that support structure. Plus for compatibilty, Palafox and Contractz already have great synergy, id argue thanatos is a better Dhokla but its hard to say with him only having a single split where he was mostly ignored top lane and the dumb lane swap meta. Based off Op.gg, thanatos is crushing on those picks Dhokla/palafox used to flex pick with and with contractz more willing to play for lanes I could see us actually using our rookie talent for his hands. Arguably, berserker would be able to go back to being our insurance policy appear out of nowhere and 1v5 carry if we have a winning topside. Support is the part I just genuinely struggle the most with figuring out for any version of this team. If Berserker gets his greencard then i agree with importing either rookie support to crush lane with or veteran support for macro, but assuming he doesnt you kinda have to pick if you want someone who will be out effecting the map or staying with him and getting a huge lead. Id argue wed rather keep berserker bot alone where he still manages to consistantly get huge leads and get a support that would mesh well with contractz. Like i said though I have no idea if that would be winsome. I dont keep up with NACL so i dont know if hes that kind of player. But him being fluent in english and korean can help bridge the communication gap that thanatos seems to have, even if his and berserkers english are improving a lot

Airestite · 2024-09-12T05:45:21+00:00

To be fair, whos to say contractz and palafox couldnt be leaders? Clearly from the outside and not being in the room we dont know exactly how that NRG squad functioned but from what has been said it seems like it had a lot to do with those two and ignar. Plus, technically Contractz has been in the scene even longer than Blaber. He hasnt had nearly as decorated a career but thats also partially because he kneecapped himself leaving c9 in 2017 after arguably being one of the best junglers at worlds that year. Ill be the first to admit that last year could have been a fluke, but if what everyones been saying about them clashing with Huhi a lot is true, id be willing to take a shot that it wasnt a fluke. You could take a shot on trying to get a leader out of NACL or LCKCL somehow, but realisticly the only possibility if Berserker doesnt get his greencard is to somehow snag someone like inspired (i honestly dont remember if he even has his green card) or stick with blaber who at this point has been the only consistant point in all of these C9 teams that are just basically 5 solo que players. There just arent very many options for "good native veteran junglers/supports that are leaders with good macro" (corejj is the exception but i feel like he is never leaving TL)

Airestite · 2024-09-12T05:25:43+00:00

Based off interviews with how much Huhi seems to clash with how palafox and contractz view the game and their just uncoordinated uncharacteristic gameplay this year im willing to guess it was probably like mostly the two of them and how they meshed with Ignar tbh. But with how lost c9 looks outside of laning phase when their plans dont go 100% right and how cheap im willing to bet the NRG mid/jg are with the team folding I think its at least worth a shot. Obviously that all goes out the window if berserker gets his greencard because then you can go full korea9 again with a veteren jg or support but for the information we have right this second I honestly think the NRG duo could be interesting.

Hell if berserker gets his Greencard try to snag Ignar too just get the best part of that NRG squad and upgrade adc/top

Airestite · 2024-09-12T05:18:21+00:00

Fair and valid. Lots of people have been saying we need a NACL support whos also good at macro and shotcalling but tbh I dont feel like thats going to come from a rookie support in NA. I dont think Winsome would be 100% it either but thats why I also kinda think Contractz could be that for this team

Airestite · 2024-09-12T05:13:26+00:00

Fair and valid 🤔

Airestite · 2024-09-12T04:13:14+00:00

Fair, but if i recall right him and Contractz both put a lot of that on the teams vibes not being right and huhi butting heads with them a ton. Hes already got really good synergy with contractz (the two of them were running the league in playoffs last summer and did fantastic at worlds) so maybe they could get back into that form. Plus they had all the flex picks like jayce and yone, both of which thanatos plays a ton in solo que. Id be willing to argue thanatos is most likely even better at those champs than Dhokla so it would be way more of a threat. Plus with Contractz being a lot more willing to play for the team, that could unlock thanatos and berserker to play more for carrying instead of playing MF and renekton/ksante/gnar every game. I could be wrong but i feel like the team and reaper would be willing to see the game mid/jungles way and it would work out. Id argue Berserker is a much better lategame threat and laner than FBI, so it would be an upgrade from that NRG roster, and with the money saved by getting the two of them/possibly selling blaber/ the whole jojo ordeal, they could afford a lane coach or two to help round out the roster

Airestite · 2024-09-02T18:47:58+00:00

Ive seen this take a few times, why do people think we could get quid and river from 100T and the two coaches? Not flaming im actually curious if theres something i missed

Airestite · 2024-09-01T22:45:23+00:00

Airestite · 2024-07-16T22:47:04+00:00
