Did every team suddenly get worse or is there something behind it?
Hey esport watchers. I dedicate 12 hours every weekend just to watch game by game how great out north american nation has progressed in their competitive abilities, but I've noticed something odd. MVP hot star players such as bjergson, stixxay, pobeltor, and even hai are clearly being crushed these past few weeks. Is it because the nalcs enviroment has just gotten harsher? I think not. I believe I have the answer as to why this is happening.
Not too long ago, a proud NAborn adc retired from the scene. Doublelift. not too long later, any professional league of legends player started realizing the depressing state of bottom lane marksmen. We can attribute this to the fact that doublelift had carried the role entirely on his back alone, NA's kill leader. Without him , the role's glaring weaknesses pop out. Doublelift kept people on the edge, always pushing every other team to get better or get lifted. Now that he's gone, everyone has relaxed, even double's own team.
We all know he started his career out as singlelift, then he advanced the the doublelift stage. This stage is where he made his name, where anyone who watches the lcs semi-moderately knows who he is. But what many might not know is that he can progress into an even higher stage! It's mainly been seen on his stream but it is confirmed that he can channel the level of triplelift. But it seems that carrying so much baggage alone in the saharan desert that is soloqueue has taken a toll on him. He is pushing himself too far. Triplelift is not his natural state but he went there anyways for his fans.
There is only one way we can restore nalcs to it's former glory. We must make this right. He sacrificed himself for his fans. Now, we must do the same for him. Shoot your arms into the sky and give him your energy! Restore doublelift to his former power level!
