I have met him in a scrimmage, and my opponent, midfielder Palafox, is powerful and seems like a genius.

Phreak if they win that trophy what will you do?
Acknowledge that I was the one sabotaging NA this whole time.
Ignore the fact that I cast C9 3-0 AF
Deaths that is. Just end me now.
No, no, for your flairs, that's tomorrow.
What the actual fuck is a kilometer!? 🦅
It's what you use to measure all the kills from NRG.
Wish you got to cast that game live and went ham
Kobe and Flowers did great, no worries.
Why do people still think this happens? It’s been disproven a ton.
People love their conspiracy theories. I mean just look at real life.
They told Phreak Ksante better be strong enough to sell skins or his @** is grass.
Legit didn’t even know he was in Heartsteel until after we locked the patch. I intentionally don’t go looking for what skins are upcoming and 100% no one told me.
Anti-poaching is only implemented for second spawn and up, so...
Not true. All jungle-vs-lanes mechanics exist from the start of the game.

Why do you blatantly lie?

Then blue side has been getting most of these champions, teams haven't yet figured out the meta. Maybe its all due to very few champions, I'd say Xayah and Maokai for an example, but teams haven't yet gotten to that conclusion which is why Xayah is so often open.
The times teams have won on red side have been because the team is just flat out better:
BDS vs JDG
C9 vs LNG
D+ vs KT (also D+ blundered draft)
G2 vs GenG (2x, in this case G2 was willing to trade Maokai for Xayah and it didn't payoff either)
Liquid vs GAM
BDS vs D+
The counter-argument can be that there hasn't been many upsets in worlds at all, it would be true, and that better teams have picked blue side quite often and it is true. But it also has to be accounted for that teams cannot use counterpicks effectively so far and haven't figured out what to ban and what trades are decent, therefore there are many champions that can be blinded with no punishment which favors blueside a lot
Red teams can't tell even numbers from odd? Weird how one team gets "most" of them when each team gets an equal number of picks.
Like if you told me Maokai is earth-shatteringly broken and counters the 2nd best champion, then cool, that's a real reason to declare that red has a ban burden.
But that claim hasn't been made, which means the logic reads really fishy to me.
There are way too many champions that need to be banned regardless:
Xayah Kalista Maokai Orianna Rell Rakan Rumble Alistar are all first pickable and should be banned accordingly, red side draft is considerably worse because of that, specially because these champions don't have many counters, which is what redside is for. Therefore blueside is way too strong.
This could obviously andnprobably will change next week though as teams try to come up with solutions to these draft issues.
..........and what happens when Blue Team can't first pick eight champions at once?
IDK how anyone can still think red team has three must bans. It's straight asinine.
There weren't really lanes in S1. Peke and Shushei just played whatever lane had the better matchup.
Dyrus played top, bot, and support at Worlds 2011
Pretigious phreak basement invitational > worlds
Based.
On the other hand, your shit eating grin after drawing just four civil wars might have been large enough to seriously injure your face. Might be better that they brought out Mr Negative Expressions, he sacrificed himself so you didn't end up looking like Pac Man.
Would have actually just started laughing.
SMH shoulda brought me back
10% No LCS or LEC teams make knockouts
50% something that no one played all year long becomes 100% pick/ban after quarterfinals
90% At most two LCS/LEC teams make knockouts
The amazing thing about Seraphine is letting me queue for support/bot while still having a fun champion that lets me play the game at the same level in two roles. All the match-up and macro knowledge I have is still vital in the role, compared to what I used to queue before Sera's release of support/mid to play something boring like Malz.
Sera plays like a botlaner unlike ziggs or veigar and doesn't require cheese team comps to be good like say karma bot. She wants to scale with items and team fight, she isn't focused on zero interaction push your tower down in the same way. Both other botlane players and myself are going to have a lot less fun in the games I'd now have to go ziggs.
Killing Seraphine bot is genuinely damaging for mine and many other higher elo support players entire game experience
Neat, now quote the part where I said "Kill Seraphine bot"
Wasn't she literally described as a "melodic mid-lane mage with massive potential" in her spotlight?
And then no one played her there 🤷♂️
The reason Seraphine mid has no popularity is because there is simply no reason to play it over apc, because apc is simply more broken. Matchups for bot lane are much better and you have an ally to power you up. If sera apc had similar win rates to mid, sera mid would've been picked more and I can guarantee you this. So I think its important to keep mid lane in mind when balancing apc.
At launch Seraphine only had play rate in mid and support. And it was overwhelmingly support even though support sucked and mid was OP.
Then the power levels got closer together. Mid Seraphine disappeared and support Seraphine is now 16x the pick rate on the same power level.
Then high MMR players discovered that Seraphine Bot is OP. So now she has some pick rate there in high MMR.
That's the entire history. Claiming anything else is straight up gaslighting.
Thanks for the insight. The change I was worried about though was the W mana cost going from 0-90 to 80-100. 30 more at the early game seems like a lot when her base mana is going from 440 to 360.
(plus I think basic abilities costing 100+ mana always feels kinda wrong somehow)
Her base mana went down and her base mana regen went into the stratosphere.
She's got the same regen and W cost profile of Sona. I mirrored other enchanter mana/costs.
