Not going to lie, I'm so glad. I never liked CLG because of their whole "let's all do everything we can to give DL an edge". They finally changed the problem and the team has never looked better
Are they number one like last split? No, but the competition this split is much better. C9 is not strong, tip has a steady line up, TSM has a full superstar team, piglet has adjusted to tl..etc
"C9 is not strong".
ok
They didn't look better a few weeks ago, they got one contentious win in a match where IMT arguably made a really bad choice at champ select. I wouldn't call it the move of the century.
However, seeing Aphromoo looks like he wants to kill dbl during every interview makes me wonder just how aggravating the guy is to play with.
Kind of like how they bashed NA player base and the line up that got to worlds was one with all NA team based players,
I love how everyone kept telling me CLG couldn't be a top team without double. They still need some improvement, don't get me wrong, but it's nice to see them put up good results to shut up some of the haters. Long live CLG!
No one forgets smeb But Marvin too. Not sure what happened to him and did he retire?
It's not about choking. It's about being too emotional. It's not something that can be isolated on the international stage; this is CLGs story as long as double lift was there. Every split began with them doing good to the point that they started claiming the season as their golden age. Then by the end of the split, they someone find themselves struggling to win games against anyways. Why? Because one person, mainly DL was so emotional
All I know is how can Zion talk shit about C9, or hell claim to be better than Immortals, when in fact both teams are 1-1 against each other. C9 and hell Immortals yesterday made them work for that win.
How you going to shut Huni AND Reignover down, and somehow allow BOTH of them to come back? And how can you talk shit saying C9 has no talent, when your mid lane got bodied at all points of the game.
And lasty, how well did your team do last year at Worlds? Exactly. Let alone how many times have you been there?
We still need Zionspartan to not choke it up at Worlds. Such a shame to see the best Top Laner NA ever had to offer look like nothing on the world stage.
