Duos is an LCS anthology series that follows a few of the NA LCS pros in their pursuit to become 2016 NA LCS Summer Split champions. Our first duo is Counter Logic Gaming's Aphromoo and Stixxay.

CLG's bot lane returns from Shanghai having crushed expectations with their standout performance at the 2016 Mid-Season Invitational. Go behind the scenes to see the story of how this duo rose throughout the Spring Split and see what they do in their offtime.

With the "Rush Hour bot-lane” now a thing of the past, the seasoned-veteran support and rising-star ADC now look to make a new name for themselves in the 2016 NA LCS Summer Split.

Every Interview that Aphromoo is in I notice near his lip is this white stuff and I wondering what it is? I thinking along the lines of toothpaste maybe or acne cream idk just something that gets my attention every time.

Great Video 10 out of 10 A thunder storm crashed my computer so I didn't get to watch the video past 7.22 but I'm sure CLG did great. Thank you and Have a Good One !

It's probably just the lighting, to be honest. His forehead and lip are shining generally along the same line, so that seems the most likely.

The white thing next to his lip I always wonder what it was too but then I realized its his moustache that has a gray spot

Could be a small form of vitiligo or something. Definitely not the lighting in any case.

Pause the video at 10:06 and you'll see it's just white hairs on his mustache.

I love both of these nerds so much. <3 I'm always so impressed by Aphromoo's leadership and Stixxay's work ethic. Super classy, super cute, and super skilled. Knock 'em dead again this split, boys! #CLGFIGHTING

If Aphro and LiftLift = Rush Hour, then Aphro and Stixxxay = Lethal Weapon

I know that I'm not the typical audience for lol esports since I don't actively play the game, am female and a new mom. I do really enjoy watching the pro league though, and clg is my favorite team. What I find disappointing is that in the future, and my child gets older, I will probably avoid player interviews, or possibly the vods altogether, because of the increasing frequency of profanity.

Female player and CLG fan response: Realistically, a few F bombs aren't going to kill anyone. I prefer seeing the players real character instead of the scripting of other pro sports and hiding the nasty shit behind closed doors. They're young, 20-somethings at most, and that's just the way we talk. When they're not having to change the way they are for interviews, you get a glimpse of the players themselves. Aphro and the others swear, yeah, but they're not disrespectful or arrogant or assholes and I care about those things more. I can understand being concerned about your kid, but League is rated "T" and there's no reason a kid under 13 should have anything to do, viewing or playing, with a T or M rated game to begin with. You'd be doing the responsible thing making sure the kid didn't see it, but the way you phrase it makes it sound like you'd prefer they weren't using 'fuck' and I think that's silly, to be honest, given the rating.

Personally I liked "The Matrix" but I feel like there's gotta be a better name for them. I've been racking my brain for days now. Maybe something from Django? I can't come up with anything cool.
