Piglet's Thoughts on Stream After Gauntlet Finals * /r/leagueoflegends

**This was from Piglet **

I thought I was going to Worlds this year….. After not getting to Worlds last year, I really Thought this would be the year. I wanted to go to Worlds yesterday… I drank a lot after the game and slept…. It really doesn’t feel good… I’m going to go to Korea this week or next week, I already talked to big steve (Owner of TL, I said to him that I want to rest first and think… If I stay here, if I stay in this team in NA, we’re going to change everything, scrims, solo q practice, everything I’m not going to stream I think. I need to rest and need to go to hospital too, need to go to the hospital because I’m ill So its all over now, it’s useless to assign blame, people say this person was, I’m bad and stuff, there’s no use saying this, it’s already over, no point in saying it.

Good thing he will admit himself to the hospital.

Do I feel sorry for him? Besides his health status, no I don't. This goes for tl and any other team that failed to qualify. I hate to say it but c9 worked harder. Last split they went from 8th place to 2nd. This split they managed to climb again after 14 games with 3 teams and beat them all.

Like why should I feel bad for tl for this? I don't! There is no reason I should or any one else. Why let a inferior team go to worlds?

Because a grown man's feelings is hurt and we should feel bad for him. Personally, I dont feel bad for a guy who decides to scrim solo Q games while his team is playing LCS just because hes not in it.

You see professional sports players, sitting on the bench with broke arms and legs at least watching their teams play the game. Nothing to see a pro NFL player hobbling around on the sidelines with crutches even though he has a season ending injury; meaning hes not gonna play at all. But hes still there giving his team support. Not raging in solo Q on his stream while his team plays. He should have been at the venue watching the game with his coach and management.

Be different if the guy was super good. But hes barely top 3/4 ADC in NA LCS, if hes lucky. He might beat out Altec from time to time. I think TL will be a much better team if they just pick up another ADC.

You have no idea what comes out of your mouth, do you? He may not be top ADC, but he's consistent, reliable, and doesn't put the team behind. And if given the chance, he can carry his team to victory. This game isn't just about ADC, or how hard an ADC can carry. It's about the team, and if top or mid lane is doesn't so well, don't expect bottom lane to carry all by himself.

Just because he didn't want to watch his team play LCS, doesn't mean he's full of it. I wouldn't want to watch idiots who try to accuse me, nag on me, and benched me for picking Urgot either.

Lol, piglet isnt any of those things. Hes not consistent, hes thrown plenty of games getting caught out. Hell, that last game he eat so many spears from Hai you had to wonder if it was on purpose. And, hes not reliable. These protect the piglet comps hardly ever work out for them. For all the percieved baggage this guy brings to the team, from having to sub him out, for his attitude, the communication issues, etc, what exactly does he even offer? Hes not the best; hes probably fighting for 3/4th spot on any given day with Altec. Why not just pick up someone with better team dynamics? Why not go out and grab a free agent that will work in the team? Is Freeze open? I know there are some NA solo Q carries that could fill that role, too. RobertxLee, etc.

The only reason I could see any team put up with Piglet's crap, is if he was the Bjergson of NA ADCs, and he isn't. Hes not even close. So why put up with it? I mean I remember all the posts early on about how even Koreans give him crap for the type of person he is.

And even if he was good, sometimes, being good doesn't cut it. Look at c9. Meteos is, or was, one of the top junglers in NA, and it simply was not working out. Put someone else in, and tada worlds team. A worse player by individual standards, but a proven commodity in team cohesion. I think if they are going to make any changes, I would start with Piglet.

Realize that TL would have gone to Worlds if TSM had won. TSM had beaten CLG in the last 5 or so matches, and TSM are very good at Bo5s. So TL had thought that they made it to Worlds directly.

If TL deserved to go, they would've gotten the job done themselves. They had TWO chances this split, just like Gravity and Impulse. TL also fell in the spring split, when they fell in the playoffs. More LCS points that they let go of. C9 was bloodied, with that Krispy Kreme glazed look in their eyes, in two separate series, but came roaring back, and ran the table, because they wanted it more, fought harder for that spot.

Time will tell how resilient TL is, and where they go from this knockout they received.

There's a quote that comes to mind: "You want sympathy, look in the dictionary between shit and syphilis"

TL was inferior, didn't deserve to go.

I don't want to be that guy but C9 still looks very shaky team and I was honestly surprised that they won the Gauntlet..... But! They worked for it and they** might **pull something crazy off at worlds...

Wait what happened to make all of this happen? Losing the thing to worlds or drama or both? I don't follow LCS much other than UoL

Losing the thing to worlds and I feel like there are more internal issues going on.... Don't feel like piglet will be in NA next year

I'm a C9 fan. but I was truly rooting for TL. With all the work they put in this season they deserved to go to Worlds. However, if they're not going to bring their best selves and beat TSM and C9 then it's kind of a mute point.
