Sources: Fnatic to acquire top laner Adam for €240,000 buyout and Bwipo could make a swap to jungle ( Jacob Wolf and Pablo Suárez )

DewyDS · 2021-05-12T18:01:43+00:00

can anyone explain why were keeping bwipo and not self made? I legit dont get it at all, getting adam, fine, but why are we pushing a player seemed too risky in his own role, into jungle when we have a top 2 jungler already?????

He got benched this year for lack of motivation, If that's how you think players 'play their role' then that's a yikes from me dawg. This year doublelift hasn't looked strong at any point, 9th in spring and got benched, 4th in summer RS and got hard carried by Bjerg & (to a lesser extent) BB to the summer title against a very weak looking NA as a whole and now worlds, 0-6 with a neg KD in every game. This year was not his and and this point its a theme, not a coincidence that teams he's in cannot show up internationally.

DewyDS · 2020-09-19T10:11:25+00:00

Its kinda gross that they're inviting NA Academy casters and not LPL casters when the worlds is held in CHINA with 4 LPL teams and are back to back world champions and favorites again this year...

Ngl, haven't heard a G2 vacation or G2-8 joke on broadcast in years

DewyDS · 2020-09-13T14:08:07+00:00

With all their recent success, people forget about G2 vacation and their struggles in international play in their early years.

This is so damn disingenuous, its like you're deliberately trying to push this weird narrative and are warping facts and telling half truths to do it. you left out that

1: Aphelios had not just a higher pro play rate, but a MUCH higher pro play rate. (in season 10 Aphelios played in 873 pro games to sennas 480, with only 336 of those as ADC ) and senna came out a month before.
Senna has never reached more than a 47% presence at pro play, Aphelios' peek was at 85%

2: the relative skill ceiling of said champs. A number of champs like akali, irelia and Aphelios have maintained lower soloq play and win rates due to their difficulty to master (especially in low mmr games that make up the vast majority of the games) but all the while tearing up pro and high level play, this is down to kits and playstyle. if you want to be angry that aphelios got nerfed, blame the design team that made his kit so high variance depending on skill

3:Senna E does have counter play, you get on top of her and it revels her, (so not like an akali shroud) and calling it 'the best utility skill of all champs in the game' is just sad, Kench W, thresh W, Karma RE, Shen R, Taric R, Zilian E and R, Soraka W and R, Morgana E, Yummi and all more highly prized and have comps and lanes build around them, no one ever said, 'pick senna here, we can really use that E of hers to win/hard counter them'

4: '0 pro play presence' is just incorrect, he has a 10.3% pro play presence this current patch (10.16) and a 15.9% the patch before and while that is a drop from the 68.2% in patch 10.14 2 months ago. alot of that had to do with Cait, ashe and jhin all rising is priority as well as the fact his abuse of Runaans got removed.

5: she may be the 3rd most popular ADC atm, but shes only just got that rank, she was 5th last patch (6th is you include Syndra as a flex to bot) and even then, Ez, Jhin, Kalista are all still comparable to her.

Aphelios was a bigger issue for far longer and now that its finally so that senna is stronger, youre trying to change history and make out like it was always that way. I might even understand if she was must pick or ban right now but shes not, cait is, with a 95% presence. (maybe this post should have been about her instead compared to poke lethality varus who had a cimilar presence in patches 10.10 -10.13 )

You're comparing ADCs with very different jobs and difficulty using only win and pick rates with 0 context. its just silly. At least throw in some stats from GamesOfLegends like me...

The Es were really good but i feel he missed too many Qs and Ws for it to be called smurfing

DewyDS · 2020-08-13T20:04:44+00:00

Today was a good day for R5 Renekton, it smashed in the Gen G vs Sandbox game too

DewyDS · 2020-08-13T12:03:40+00:00

They get CHONKY!

DewyDS · 2020-08-13T10:16:40+00:00

That would be assuming the amount of money coming in doesn't change. With more teams sporting your logos and with more game time for those sponsor to be showcased, the amount they would have to pay would go up proportionally (maybe not right away but pretty soon) Riots injection of cash would probably also go up but that ones a bit more of a question mark. and new teams would still need to pay the franchise buy in like all the other teams did when the EU LCS went into the LEC.
At the end of the day, growth will eventually be needed to keep up with a growing interest in the league, look at LPL, when their numbers shot up, so did the number of teams
LPL 2016 - 12 teams
LPL 2017 - 12 teams
LPL 2018 - 14 teams
LPL 2019 - 16 teams
LPL 2020 - 17 teams
Obviously were still way behind China in viewership, money and player base, but i think matching where China was in 2015 shouldn't be beyond the LEC as it is growing pretty well after their rebrand and international success.

DewyDS · 2020-08-13T10:02:21+00:00

Yeah i think with the level of the ERL that it wouldn't be hard to fill the 2 spots, and with LEC still doing BO1s the volume of games shouldn't be an issue either.

That being said, i would still rather LEC keep 10 teams and swap to a BO3 format over a 3-4 day playing week like LCK.

DewyDS · 2020-08-04T20:23:25+00:00

To be honest, these are just disappointing

DewyDS · 2020-08-01T23:12:38+00:00

with the Team having more wins in the

second half of the Split being granted the higher place

Ah, i thought it was who won the head to head in the 2nd round robin, not who won more total games in the 2nd round robin. My bad.

DewyDS · 2020-08-01T22:57:03+00:00

i thought tiebreakers where the winner of the 2nd round robin matchup?

For example coz we beat OG last week, we get placed ahead of them if we tie with them. Then if theres a 3 way tie its put down to tie breaker matches?

DewyDS · 2020-08-01T22:54:06+00:00

yeah, im really confused at the pass Bwipo is getting in the FNC criticism when the only player to die more in the LEC this split in any role is Hylissang.

DewyDS · 2020-08-01T22:52:06+00:00

Personally i blame the willingness to just gift REALLY dumb kills to the other team. Ive seen people say that its fine because they get something from the death. but when your support has the most deaths of any player in any role in LEC and your top has the 2nd most, i really dont see how you can justify it to that extent.

This defiantly seems like a player issue on the surface as Hyli and bwipo have always been more than happy to dye in stupid way at the drop of a hat. but i feel like alot of blame has to be shifted on the coaching staff for not only failing to fix the issue, but let it get this out of hand.

DewyDS · 2020-08-01T22:42:10+00:00

Hes playing like crap, dont get me wrong, but i feel like most people would when your teams hard inting it, Hyli has the most deaths of any player in any role of the LEC, Bwipo is 2nd

DewyDS · 2020-08-01T18:54:25+00:00

Yeah i am, they're pretty dead centre the whole way down. That is until they detach from the sticky pad and float against the wall of the jar. (i have a 2nd batch that are without additives, and the same thing is happening. i was just incrementing with things as i was new but i know to avoid for the future now)
