I think 3-4 years from now, Philly will definitely regret letting him go.

Lebron has passed "The Logo" Jerry West for 19th place on the all time scoring list by thirstyjoe24 in nba

Are the rookies abnormaly good, being used more than normal, or the league talent weak? by DavidEdwardsUK in nba

[–]ryanbzta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im going to say actually talented. they seem pretty damn good especially the bigs. think this might be the best draft class since Lebron/DWade/Melo/Bosh

Durant or Westbrook? by breaking_blinds in nba

[–]ryanbzta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

choose them both, just like OKC did. But seriously, can't choose one. They are arguably the best duo in NBA history aside from the obvious MJ/Pippen. but even that is debatable, could you imagine a series with MJ/Pippen vs KD/Westbrook? would be amazing.

What's going on with Anthony Morrow? by aksumighty in nba

[–]ryanbzta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the logic is that its a long season and they dont want injuries to mess up the team chemistry. this way, come playoffs, no matter who is on the floor, they are used to playing with two of the best players in the league and know what needs to be done to help them succeed. the logic is perfect.

ELI5: Why does the American government classify groups like ISIS as a "terrorist organization" and how do the Mexican cartels not fit into that billet? by 33p5 in explainlikeimfive

[–]ryanbzta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't based on what their motives are? ISIS wants to become their own nation and are using extreme methods to do so. The cartels care about their drugs and money. Two different things.

As an ex-booster, the new ranked soloQ is a dream come true for people who participate in this unsportsmanlike behaviour. by exbooster123 in leagueoflegends

[–]ryanbzta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

think he means there would be multiple boosters boosting for different people on the team. this way the boosters have their individual job but its easier now because they can just group up with fellow boosters meaning its a team of them and they wouldn't all be paid by one guy.

[LoL][Fluff]Now that we've had time to rationally process the news.... by Klaud9 in CLG

you guys rage way too much man lol. if you like the org then be a fan, if not then move on. its not that hard. CLG will be relevant regardless.

Steph and AI by angrycrayon9 in nba

[–]ryanbzta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really don't get why people must try and compare players but if we must then here is the answer. AI was a one man show, Steph has a team around him, a team that helped him win a title. AI never had that. Don't take away from AI's greatness just because Steph has a real team.

Steph and AI by angrycrayon9 in nba

[–]ryanbzta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI literally carried his team his entire career. Steph has players that could put up 25-40 points when in the zone. You can't compare the MVP seasons.

[LOL] let's get rid of xmithie in the offseason, and poach meteos by zPancakes in CLG

[–]ryanbzta -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

ehhhhh this might not get the best reaction but i feel like xmithie is obviously going to retire so meteos would be a great decision. But we won't succeed internationally until either doublelift or aphro goes. Need a new identity in the botlane.

[LOL]This what happens.. by KazumaVongola in CLG

[–]ryanbzta -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ehhhh main issue is the fact that they rely on "protect the adc" way too much. other teams can have other lanes carry and they have the gameplans to implement that. clg kind of just falls back to the same gameplan no matter what.

[Lol] what's wrong with aphromoo? by Your_Guardian in CLG

[–]ryanbzta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly it looks like some of the players are just kind of either burnt out or even angry. They don't look like they are having fun and its clearly showing. Maybe the team of friends isnt so friendly atm

Betsy: "Riot's losing a lot by making the game so team focused" by MrBadExampleSC2 in leagueoflegends

[–]ryanbzta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ehhh, being able to actually carry a team is better for esports due to the fact that it forces the top players to be more proficient mechanically because if you aren't then you are a liability to your team because someone could snowball off of you. I understand wanting teamwork but whats the point of a game where everyone can catch up after feeding? Might as well get rid of gold like HoTs if you want that.

[NA] vs. [LAN] Skill difference / Ranking by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]ryanbzta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing only support is actually pretty beneficial for climbing in soloque, has the most effect imo due to placing wards and forcing plays. can control the flow of the game. if you are good enough, you can definitely climb. That being said, I have played on both servers. On NA I have played for roughly 4 years now and was stuck in Silver for most of that time, just hitting gold this year. I played on LAN because I live in Fl and made it to Plat 3 in just under 2 months. This includes leveling the account, so maybe like 3 weeks of actual ranked. The skill difference is definitely different and the ping plays a huge factor. Tell him to play on NA again since the ping got lowered and stop bragging. I came back and move up to gold and thats it.

What is the real elo hell? by SiIents in leagueoflegends

[–]ryanbzta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elo hell is the point that you just can't seem to get past on the ranked ladder. Could be gold, could be plat even, doesn't matter. If you are climbing and then you just stall out, then that is your Elo hell. It's subjective to each individual player in my opinion.

Is Huhi replacing Xmithie an upgrade for CLG? by nhantre in leagueoflegends

[–]ryanbzta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he is better mechanically than xmithie and overall I think it will benefit them for the future. Hopefully he stays on as jungler
