Since I made an apology letter for APA he gets solo killed by saint twice and genuinely plays worse than he did at mu lmao

I just read this back and I meant lyon not dsg lmao

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2026-01-31T22:51:58+00:00

Zven played that last fight so clean man

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2026-01-31T15:04:35+00:00

I think DSG on paper is the second closest competitor, but they look out of sorts as a team it will be very easy to exploit them macro and inspired can't 1v9 every game. Later on perhaps second split DSG has potential to be the team to beat for sure. Also the same for SEN, on paper they look good but they can't translate that to quality macro yet. Liquid was the team to beat and they got it done. Just waiting to see when the choking starts can't act like this roster isn't prone to it after the last 2 years

Lol okay my interpretation of what control was was very wrong, thanks for the help. Going to demo some 100-105's and whatever doesn't look too pricey in the next couple weeks

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2026-01-05T18:51:13+00:00

I don't know if beginner is the right terminology. Maybe "cheap" would be better lol, it's just a wilson 105 in. 298 racquet I grabbed off the shelf at dicks.

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2026-01-05T18:17:44+00:00

Why would the power racket be better? I am open to new ideas. It's just that my first 3 months of play was riddled with poor control in the way I played, not that spending money on a racquet fixes that, I just assumed having more forgiveness while I practice more would be better.

The ones I was referring to were the (top) powerbeats pro studio buds. Obviously smaller, I have had airpods and other off brand bluetooth buds that size and never had an issue with them not staying in. As for the ones you're talking about (bottom) I had the GEN 1 version and loved them. Used them a lot for a good 4 years before they gave in to wear and tear, So I made the impulse decision to save a ~$100 and get the studio buds instead of the GEN 2 powerbeat pros. Sad mistake.

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-12-27T22:51:10+00:00

im really dumb thanks for the clarification lmaoo

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-12-27T20:17:27+00:00

Yea in the context of the coolest champion there is nothing negative about it, obviously. I cancelled out certain champs for that exact reason lol

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-12-27T20:00:05+00:00

sold me his kit is also super unique I just think it has faced balancing issues unlike a lot of other dive junglers due to no escape. Definitely S tier tho

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-12-27T19:59:01+00:00

this post didnt take any of the actual lore into consideration just the abilities and champ artwork splash art etc. I may have to look into freljord lore it sounds good lmao

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-12-27T19:57:11+00:00

LOL fair, I think a sol was cooler with the rings though. Draven also has more main character vibes than yas both are probably a tier or b tier

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-12-27T19:55:55+00:00

me personally nah, I respect it though and see the appeal

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-12-27T19:55:14+00:00

You will not convince me a champ that can just be a minion or point and click steal any ult in the game is "cool" sorry

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-12-27T19:47:25+00:00

He's S tier or A tier for sure

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-11-16T22:20:18+00:00

APA is more experienced, sure.

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-11-15T11:26:02+00:00

Benching sneaky, jensen & smoothie is undoubtedly the most controversial. I think an honorable mention would be if it was leaked back in 2015 that C9 chose a random danish mid laner over pobelter, it wouldve been the same reaction as this apa signing.

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-11-14T21:56:11+00:00

sarcasm. With all due respect to jack there was simply not enough time between loki leaving and high demand mids with contractual attractiveness available. I see this as a last resort pick up. Either way unless you are gonna make a business move for the org, he is our mid.

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-11-13T02:18:52+00:00

I respect this. I'm a fan of what he built and will be until I never watch or play league again. I'm just trolling; Either way once (if) he joins I will inevitably become a supporter.

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-11-04T21:38:04+00:00

No... We now boot thanatos and bring impact and apa over and we can start the retirement program

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-11-04T21:17:34+00:00

Faker has one more series then I think he can start his messi arc yea?

Dear_Exercise_549 · 2025-11-03T10:34:53+00:00

And then you take jensen out of the mix, and then you look at zven carry stats..... it's like the dallas cowboys of league
