G2 Esports fills out roster with Emperor, Trick

G2 Esports has announced their roster for the 2016 European LCS Spring Split.

The team has recently lost Jesiz  and SmittyJ to Team Dignitas, and has replaced then with Emperor and Trick. Additionally, with the signing of Trick as their new jungler, G2 has moved Kikis to the top lane. Red flags all over the place here first why would you move Kikis to top lane? A underwhelming jungler wont make a super star top lane thats for sure. Second I always get chills thinking about TDK players after the end of the summer split and maybe Emperor will shake that stink off,but for now its still on. 


Emperor is coming to G2 from Team Dragon Knights, though due to visa issues, he only played nine games for TDK during the summer split. A team that got auto-relegated at the end of summer winning a whooping one game the whole split. I hope he can perform better this year and not have visa issues again!!


G2 Esports full roster is as follows:
  • Mateusz "Kikis" Szkudlarek
  • Kim "Trick" Kang Yoon
  • Luka "PerkZ" Perkovic
  • Kim "Emperor" Jin-hyun
  • Glenn "Hybrid" Doornenbal

Incredible Miracle sign Flame, Cpt Jack

Incredible Miracle complete their Spring 2016 roster with Lee "Flame" Ho-jong and Kang "Cpt Jack" Hyung-woo. The org reported on facebook

Flame is coming to IM after spending a year in China with LGD Gaming. Before that he played for Azubu Blaze, which later became CJ Entus Blaze. While he was with LGD, the team placed first in the 2015 LPL Summer Playoffs and second in the 2015 LPL Spring Playoffs. Flame himself is best known for the "Flame Horizon," the ability at his peak to consistently outfarm his lane opponent by 100 CS complete and total domination by far a great player.
Flame announced his departure from LGD Gaming and his search for a new team early this month. Arguably the best top lane carry in the world Flame was a great pick up for IM.


Cpt Jack previously played for the Jin Air Green Wings, he finished the 2015 LCK summer season in sixth place. Cpt Jack did not play in any of Jin Air's Regional Finals games, nor did he play for Jin Air at the 2015 LoL KeSPA Cup. He finished the summer season with a 5.14 average KDA, mostly playing Sivir. Mostly a clean up ADC not gonna be the star player like flame but should be able to hold his own and help his team. The team completes their roster with these pick ups and look to compete in the LCK spring split.

The new NA LCS powerhouse

I know what your thinking and no its not TSM. While TSM seems pretty stacked I don't think they will top LCS next spring. The team that will is a little team called NRG or energy gaming. Why you may ask? Well here's why NRG will dominate the 2016 landscape.
NRG ROSTER 

Top: Jung “Impact” Eon-yeong
Former world champion impact joins the team. A dominant top lane powerhouse that can adjust to any meta. He plays carries and tanks and offers a super threat in the top lane.
Jungle: Galen “Moon” Holgate
While I don't know much about moon however he is the previous team imagine jungle and should be a solid pick for the team.

Mid: Lee “GBM” Chang-seok
Former jinair mid GBM is arguably a super star. Now some my say he's just some middle row mid laner but you have to remember this is in a region leagues better than NA. Middle row is super in NA and with impact at top their synergy should be great. This will make or break the team.

AD Carry: Johnny “Altec” Ru
Former gravity adc altec should offer a consistent performance like he did on gravity. He might not be much but as long as he does its job then the teamade a great adc pick.
Support: Kevin “KonKwon” Kwon
Rookie support player not much here but there's potential so well have to see how this works.
So get ready for NRG to be a great power in the NA LCS 2016 spring.

Yellowstar leaves FNATIC



A legend is leaving Fnatic, as Bora "YellOwStaR" Kim has left the roster, the organization announced this morning.
The announcement is as follows
"On behalf of everyone in Fnatic, I would like to begin by thanking and congratulating Bora for his phenomenal performance and achievements over these past three years," "When we understood that YellOwStaR had sincere interest in pursuing a new journey and chapter of his already successful career, we did everything in our power to provide him with an offer and path within our organisation that would make him reconsider. However, we soon realized what we probably already knew: that someone as determined and curious like Bora thrives from trying new things - the very same traits that made him to the player and person he is today."
YellOwStaR gave his own take expressing a desire to play in the NA Lcs giving support to the yellowstar TSM theory.
And with that FNC has lost 3 players Hunni reignover and now yellowstar. This is a grave blow to the team and opens the gates to a OG dominant EU LCS.


Easyhoon signs with vici gaming




Former SK Telecom T1 mid laner Lee "Easyhoon" Jihoon has signed with Vici Gaming. After a Threeway bid war vici gaming signed easyhoon with a with a 850k salary. This in the wake of marin and Toms departure leads to some shaky foundations for skt1 as a team. Without their star top and mid lane sup easyhoon how will skt1 shape up this spring?  Time will tell.

IEM San Jose match ups and predictions




Well its that time of year folks its time for IEM San Jose where the B C teams of every region come to battle for middle of the road champ. Now the first rounds are a best of 1 so it will be do or die for some of these teams. Others like Jinair and OG have gotten a bye so they will be in the semis and will face the winners of round one in a best of 3.

Round 1 match ups

Match one Team Solo mid and LGD gaming
With TSM i cant say my usual insults since they have a new roster with some pretty great players from all across the LCS. Replacing every member besides mid lane Birg taking out all the trash and bringing in some fresh faces. At ADC doublelift, In the Top lane "Hauntzer",jungle  "Svensekeren" and at support "kaSing". This line up looks not only to take all of NA but looks to even compete on the world stage on par with the likes of KOO or FNC. Now LGD is a different story while they have the same line up im not sure how they will perform after that despicable performance at worlds this year. It clearly showed some horrid weakness in the team that i hope get fixed real quick. Before LGD and all its members become the joke of china.


vs








CLG vs UOL 
well this is easy CLG has a 5 man team while UOL has....2 whole members so unless they can sign 3 players in 3 days i dont think they can 2v5 CLG.

2015 league of legends world finals


Well well what a worlds it been i haven't really wrote much on worlds since it seems kinda straight forward but ill give a brief recap if you've been to busy to enjoy worlds this year.

Group winners
Group A: 1.flash wolfs
                 2. Koo tigers
Group B: 1.FNC
                 2.AHQ
Group C: 1.SKT
                 2.EDG
Group D: 1.KT
                2. OG

Quater finals

FW vs OG
OG wins 3-1

SKT VS AHQ
SKT win 3-0

FNC vs EDG
FNC win 3-0

KT vs KOO
KOO win 3-1

now that the run down is over lets talk about those semi final matches.
OG vs SKT (3-0)

Now this was set in stone from the moment OG stepped on stage they knew they were facing the greatest LOL team in the world. Now they played valiantly and did their best but come on who really thought honestly OG would beat SKT? Easy mode didnt even start faker and from easyhoons performance they clearly dont need to.

FNC vs KOO tigers(3-0)

Now unlike the OG SKT match this one was appaerntly a 50/50 match up both these teams seemed about equal and EU had a shot at the finals. Then everything changed when hunni tilted no but really FNC was outclassed across the board. Top mid and bot owned in this match up and hojin was able to make up for his fuck ups and play with his team well. FNC looked pretty good in game one they got first blood and had a pretty good lead early but slowly but surly KOO started to step up. When this happened FNC's chances took a nose dive. After game one they feel apart barely hanging on and went into full desperation mode and KOO exploited every mistake.  Gameover and tilt master Hunni came in full force making it impossible for them to win this is evident in game 3. In game 3 it looked like they just wanted to go home hunni was 0-9 for god sakes and smeb had a feild day top fevbin at least held his own with a solid performance but that all the good you can say about FNC. EU fans over hyped them and when they crashed and burned at the hands of KOO tigers the dream collapsed.Imagine if they performed like that vs KOO the utter stompfest SKT would have brought if they faced them in the finals. I think its good FNC lost so handily because it shows a sad fact about LCS even if you go undefeated all split your nothing in a best of 5 against teams who understand how to play game after game without tilt. It highlights a big weakness of the west best of 1s dont show how well they perform in best of 5s. FNC was untouchable when they had a week to until themselves and play 100% but as soon and they play more than one and start fucking up it all falls apart. The only hope for the west is to change the silly LCS format and start being big  boys and playing best of 3s or something. If not hen the same thing will happen year after year season after season well think a team is really good and then they get bent over by the Koreans and well complain about the all Korean finals. FNC deserved every loss and i look forward to the best teams in the world SKT and KOO facing off in the finals.

LCS 2015 summer playoffs SF EU and NA

This weekend is gonna be fire boys we got some super hot matches that im super hyped to talk about so lets start off with EU.

ORG vs H2K
Well this would be H2k's second match of the playoffs and now they take on the number 2 seat of ORG. ORG has held the number 2 spot for sometime not near the level of FNC however they have performed extremely well this split. Their games are blood baths and they turn on the heat on the dime on anyteam in some cases even FNC. H2k on the other hand have showed some promise being a clear 3rd place towards the end of the split and with there destruction of GIA they look to go to the finals with a hard won match with ORG.



FNC vs UOL
Well this brings back memories from the spring split when UOL could actually contend with FNC as equals. Those were the days but those days are long gone thanks to FNC becoming a force of fucking nature, They went 18-0 this summer and before the playoffs beat UOL with trundle support it was super sad tbh the level of outplay was like watching faker lane with a bronze five riven main.  So yeah hopefully UOL wont get manhandled again and for the pride and the pride of their fans give FNC at least one lose. #thedream



Moving on the NA where the match ups are beyond hype levels and where the real games begin.

TIP vs CLG
TIP is looking good with there decisive win over DIG with a 3-0 sweep however that wont happen to CLG. The reason being CLG unlike DIG plays a certain way that TIP can relate to and its unlikely without xio that they can take CLG without some epic Impact/Rush carries. CLG wants worlds bad and wont let TIP walk all over them so this should be a interesting series might go to 5 games that means tons of points.





Match of the week TL vs TSM(HYPE!!!!)
What is hype you say this match is the answer with the rising stars of TL taking on the reigning kings of NA TSM hype will be born boys! TSM had a interesting win over GRV by passing the carry baton to Dyrus instead of Big B witch was definitely a new approach but it wont be enough to beat liquid. Liquid has risien to the very top of NA beating all that stood in their way even TSM the raw talent and teamwork of liquid alone should give TSM pause. I think if anyone can stop TSM its TL with now that just be my bias speaking but god dammit its justified bias if there ever was such a thing. It might be close but TL should kill and i mean kill TSM and go on to the finals.


Dont agree well tell me what you think in the comments or put your money where your mouth is and play Alphadraft..... what to scared.....pussy!! lol but no really Alphadraft is super fun guys go play it like now!!

LCS 2015 summer playoff QF results

Well it was one hell of a weekend boys and girls as the 2015 summer playoffs in both NA and EU raged on. I will admit some teams definitely surprised me in the end and i offer my congrats to the winning teams here are the teams and standings in the summer playoffs starting with NA.

TIP VS DIG (winner TIP) 3-0
Well this was definitely expected the games were by no means boring DIG tried in all 3 games but TIP just outplayed them in every way as expected. I hoped TIP would be able to defeat them cleaner than they did but they still win and move on to take on CLG in the semis.


TSM VS GRV(winner TSM) 3-1
This match up had some surprises Dyrus a player most would say is the weakest on TSM carried not one but two of the four games. It was entertaining to watch him be the carry it highlights TSM's growth since it wasnt just a protect our mid lane game as per usual with TSM. They definitely came to the playoffs better than they ended the split but will this growth be enough to take on the number one seat in TL or will TL end TSM's playoff hope well see this weekend wont we.


While NA had a few good games it pales in comparison to the EU playoffs and the explosive games played there.

H2K vs GIA(winner H2K) 3-0
This was hard to watch with a land slide victory in game 1 H2K really showed just how large the gap in skill really was. That was a 16-0 game not a single kill on the side of GIA just sad but they performed a tad bit better in games 2 and 3 but it didnt stop H2K from 3-0 sweeping them off the playoff bracket. H2K moves on to face ORG witch looks to be a great match to find out whos gonna take on FNC in the finals.


Series of the week
UOL VS ROC(winner UOL) 3-2
Wow this was a back and forth match up it all began with UOL showing not only ROC but all of EU they were not a washed up team like we expected them to be. This was shown in a great 2-0 run in the first games of the series. It all looked like a sweep for UOL when out of nowhere ROC turned the tables with a 2-0 blaze on UOL. This took the series to a great 5th game 49 mins long of great back and forth play but ultimately UOL came out on top and now claim the honor of getting sweeped by FNC in the semis lol. No but really a great series and i hope UOL don't just get man handled by FNC at least win a game and ill be happy.



A great start to playoffs lots of ups lots of downs but all in all i look forward to seeing how things develop in the semis and the finals in both NA and EU.

LCS summer playoffs 2015 picks and predictions

LCS 2015 summer Playoff thoughts and ideas


Hey guys its Ben here and the time has come for summer playoffs arguably the most important playoff for LCS teams by a mile. I'll focus on NA and EU LCS for this article so its not 7 pages long both have some really interesting brackets where ill break them down and I will say who I think will win. Well without further padding(lol) lets get into the main course of NA and EU LCS summer playoffs.



I'll start off with NA since its by far the most competitive and has a lot of intense match ups.

Play off quarter finals best of 3(TIP vs DIG)
This should in theory be a total sweep TIP was in the running for a 1st place spot in NA but fell short of that mark. That being said TIP is an amazing team that turns on the heat in every match they play and while Xio might be suspended Gate has been a decent sub and plays safe not throwing like you would expect a support turned mid to. TIP has show repeatedly that they can take any team in NA and DIG hasn't had the greatest split. In fact DIG has had an epic fall from glory from the start of the split where they were a first place team but recent can only seem to pull of a win against a relegation squad NME. DIG makes tons of mistakes and are a bad match up to TIP who plays fast lose and hard if DIG gives them even a small opening it will snowball into a stomp real quick. I would say 70/30 for a TIP will probably DIG can take a game maybe two but i don't see them going any further than the quarters this split. TIP will go on to face CLG in the semis and look for a final run where I believe there rivals TL will be waiting.


Playoff Quarter Finals best of 3 match 2(Gravity vs TSM)
Both of these teams have huge potential both are fan favorites by most standards and both play the same safe objective control play style but only one can advance to the semis. This will most likely go to 5 games and I see TSM coming out on top due to the fact that gravity is not the unbeatable giant we once believed they were. I think NA teams have cracked the gravity code and I don't think they can hold on to the best of three with TSM unless we see the team from the middle of the split. If that team isn't playing TSM then I'm not sure they can even hope to win. It will be a huge battle both teams will be pushing it but I think TSM can push farther than Gravity and win the series. The winner of this match will play TL and TSM remembers that loss well im sure cant wait to see them in the best of three.



Bold prediction Summer playoff winner(TL)
TL has blazed an inhuman like trail across the split and look in peak form while they are far from perfect they have what it takes to win Playoffs in NA

Now lets get into EU the less fun of the two since you know FNC will win but Let's look at the other matches shall we.

Match 1 quarter finals (H2K vs GIA)
EU is an odd league all of its power is on the top and at the base power is almost split evenly anyone can beat anyone and the teams throw games so often you have to wonder why you even watch this at times. H2k finished third in the summer split this year at 11-7 while GIA took a close 6th place spot at 8-11. H2K will probably win since there a better team overall and actually play team comps that work and don't revolve around greed. There aggressive but not too aggressive play style should handily defeat the way to aggressive for their own good GIA play style so I see them sweeping this. They might lose a game but won't lose 2. AND H2K can finally get that game with OG and well see if they can stop the OG FNC finals that everyone is calling now.


EU Q finals 2 (UOL vs ROC)
I think that UOL will beat itself and ROC will get the credit people see them as a good team but there basically a solo queue team who can make some plays. ROC on the other hand while they may be lower on the standings by like one game they play the game well and sure make some huge mistakes here or there but are a great team all thing considered. If they do win FNC will sweep them so its no biggie  it really doesn't matter if they win but they most likely will they will face the undefeated FNC and just lose sweep style.



Not so bold prediction Winner FNC

This is a no brainer they haven't lost a single game in an entire season and I don't see them losing to any team so far.

I didn't talk about Orign because they are a toss up team and its hard for me to discuss them since this is practically do or die for them. Since they joined this split they have no championship points meaning they have to win the summer split to go to worlds which seems to be there goal for sure. So the finals will be OR vs FNC for the title of summer split king and world's first seat.

life is strange rewind power rant!!

Hey gonna take this time to write about something else since LCS is gonna be chill for a week or two.

In this article i want to address my thoughts on Max caulfield and her rewind power in the game Life is strange by Dontnod entertainment. Now before i begin let me just say this is a amazing game and if you havent played it i suggest you do before reading any further.


Max has a rewind power that basically turns her into a omnipotent being in the world of life is strange or very close to being one. She can reverse any mistake she makes or others makes and has on multiple occasion(if your not a asshole) saved her classmates from varying situations. From stopping a girl from killing herself to saving your fat sorta friend from getting hit or something. While this may seem like a awesome power and ill admit it would be awesome to have such a power but it would also be one hell of a curse. Think about it for a second Max never makes a mistake in the whole game (yes ik when her powers give out they dont work) she is constantly fixing everything and not dealing with the long term consequences of her actions. This would make Max and anyone with this power extremely over confident and reckless since everyone around them would praise them for being great 100% of the time. This leads to stagnation of development in a person and would actually make you a worse hman being. Imagine if you never made a mistake never failed or lost how would that alter you as a person. People are shaped by there experiences both positive and negative so if Max never has negative outcomes since she can rewind time to fix anything negative in her eyes then she breaks the balance. This not only hurts max but also robs the people around her of choice and growth.

In the game Max constantly uses her powers to do all kinds of crazy shit. She invades peoples rooms steals and even manipulate people into agreeing with her or being nice to her. This is actually kinda fucked up when you think about it she literally controls people and uses information in the future to gain an advantage in the present. This robs her friends and enemies the basic right of making their own choices and forging there own path. For her friends it makes them dependent children the more she saves them the less they learn for themselves they dont adapt or grow because max shields them from failure. Thus making them weak people would look to others to fight there battle for them insteed of making there own choices in life. To makes enemies real or perceived she could give a shit about your personal space thoughts or property and will actually fuck up peoples lives in the proceeds. Take David for instance they break into his personal domain(the garage) she then snoops around judging all of his secrets breaks into his computer spying on him and then her and chloe have the BALLS to complain about him spying on other people and how "creepy" it is.  Then confronts him with the information they wrong acquired by lying,breaking and entering and spying about him spying on Kate. This leads to him getting kicked out of his house and now his wife hates him but hey Davids just some asshole right?.......Right? welll no but thats a rant for another day


In summary Max's rewind power is in my humble ranty opinion more of a curse than a blessing. It not only hurts her but also all the people she "helps" with it since it takes away there free will in a way. She actually wields in so unresponsively that it puts into question how much of a "good person" she actually is or isnt.  All in all Max isnt the hero shes crack up to be in reality her powers (as of now) seem to do more harm then good.

But hey thats what i think and if you made it to the end then i thank you. Tell me what you think in the comments bellow or give me a like if you agree or just like the topic in general. But it wont matter sice ill just rewind and change my article to make you like it anyway. ;)

Vulcun esports review

Daily fantasy sports keeps evolving over time and sites are figuring out how cover more and more sports. What vulcun offers is esports and thats a huge deal in the community.

What is Vulcun?

If there is a competition which has a definite winner and loser, it can be turned into a fantasy game. Vulcun has taken the fantasy format of Draftkings and Fanduel and is applying it to esports, which is a billion dollar industry which keeps growing. With Vulcun, fans are able to draft the players in the LCS and can potentially make as much as the actual pro tournament players themselves!

Pick your favorite players wherever you like!!

Vulcun gives you a $50,000 salary budget to choose your favorite games. You have the option of selecting anyone you want on any given day. But the way it works is the pro gamers are like stocks and the top gamers are going to cost more. So if you take a top gamer and he cost $12,000 then you only have $38,000 of your team salary left to choose your other five gamers. This is where strategy comes in because you can’t just pick all the top gamers. If you do your team will go over the salary cap and your lineup will be invalid.

Choose the Games You Want to Follow

League of Legends is probably the most popular game in the eSports world. But right behind it is Counter Strike and Dota2. Vulcun offers all three. So if you follow one game more than the others, you may have an advantage over the general public because you can only play the one you follow the most if your want.

Best Bonus in the Industry

Since Vulcun is new and just now introducing DFS to the gaming world, they are offering an amazing bonus to all their new players to get started. They will match your deposit up to $1000 to help get your bankroll started. If you use the promo code Benspore you can get a matched deposit bonus. GO NOW!!

Games to Fit Every Budget

If you are curious how everything works and aren’t comfortable putting your money in right away, that’s okay because they offer games for free! Even if you don’t want to risk that much, you can enter games for as little as five cents. But if you feel like this is something you can make some serious money playing, then feel free to give the high roller games a try. You can enter some of the $500 entry fee games if this is the case. The cool thing about DFS is that you can make one team and play in as many contests as you want with the same lineup. Plus you can definitely make money without spending a dime and its all skill based so its a good chance you will win some cash.

The Money is Real and Easy to Access no BS

The greatest thing about Vulcun is they are 100% legal because it’s considered a game of skill and not luck. You don’t have wait weeks to get your money and you won’t have to explain to your bank how you got a foreign check. You can withdraw your money via PayPal and have it in a day or two after you make your withdrawal. Easy convent and reliable.

NA LCS week 8 day 2 first look and thoughts

Well today is gonna be a good day boys the standings in NA unlike EU are nice and tight. The competitive spirit and drive of these teams will shine today as playoff standings might very well be decided today of all days. Lets get into the matches to analyze the chances in todays NA LCS match ups

1.TL(10-5) vs NME(4-11)
With 10 wins and only 5 loses this split TL looks to get a second place bye in playoffs and another win to end this week off after the lost against CLG would help bring them closer to that spot. TL is a great team who is determined and might make mistake here or there but the drive and skill in each of their players can carry games on its own. While NME is in 9th place and is safe from auto relegation thanks to team 8 they look to avoid the promotion tournament with a win this week and widen that gap at the bottom of the table. I fully expect TL to manhandle NME hands down but greater upsets have happened in the past hell even this past split has seen some upsets so who knows?


2. CLG(10-5) vs C9(5-10)
CLG might have looked like the tilt was real but now there back in action and are tied for second place along with their rivals of TL. C9 was once a proud team at the very top of the LCS but now they find themselves in 8th place with a completely opposite record of CLG. A win for C9 means maybe a possible playoff spot in order to shock the whole LCS with the return of the kings of C9 but with how strong CLG has looked this split its clear they wont win today but all you C9 fans give them your energy.

3TSM(9-6) vs DIG(9-6)
The fight for 5th place while DIG looked great at the start of the split they have seance fallen from their tower of greatness into the pit of middle management. TSM is just...... being run of the mill boring uninspiring TSM as per usaul so if they win big whoop.

The other matches are not worth discussing in my opinion but feel free to tell me what i think in the comments section give this a like a share and come back for more LCS match ups and news.

EU LCS W8D1 match ups

With only two weeks left in the EU LCS its do or die for relegation's and play-offs and on day one some teams are make or break. So lets get into one of the final weeks of EU LCS.

1. H2k(9-5) vs Giants Gaming(7-7)
Now with a 7-7 record being tied with UOL for 4th place this is a must win for the Spanish armada of Giants Gaming. If they lose this match it could put them in a dangerous place since UOL is favored to beat Elements and GG. This could lead to them not making play off and losing their shot at worlds(lol worlds). H2k has defiantly faltered the past week or two so who knows maybe if H2k tilts far enough Giants could take a win off them. So to sum this part it seems to be the makings of a good game and thats kinda rare in EU.

2.CW(2-12) vs Elements(5-9)
Well CW are looking hurt and i mean hurt with a capital H. They fell into the same mistake lots of teams fall into the lets just replace the "bad players" and well be the best in LCS. Well with there pitiful(2-12) record it seems like they will be trying to be best in challenger if they dont have some miracle wins so far. Elements is looking alot better in contrast and looks to even contend for 4th the ever so wanted playoff spot. They probably wont make it but a win to pad out there record is always good.

3.UOL(7-7)vs SK(4-10)
not much to say here after all the spring champs cant play with the big boys now and its kinda sad really but UOL has a new line up and might have a huge opening in their team so like out first match could pull something out. Who really knows i doubt it but anything can happen if you push a wounded animal into a corner it could very well kill you.

4.OR(10-4)vs GG(6-8)
now i can say OR is gonna curb stomp GG prob a 20 min surrender and i have placed my faith in GG more than once and they have come through but also let me down on many a occasion.

NA LCS Week7 Day 2

Well we got a great week this week some great matches upsets and more but in this article i will go over the match ups for today and give some insight into the match.

1. Gravity e-sports(10-3) vs NME e-sports(4-9)
well we have the number 1 seat going up on a bottom 8th seat team. Now one would automatically assume that gravity would murder this kids but NME has shown some growth and is hungry for every win for that playoff spot while gravity could be in a zone of confidence after there trail to the top of the LCS. While i dont think NME will win you never know in the NA LCS especially after T8  beat TSM.

2. Team dignatias(8-5) vs C9(3-10)
While C9's fall from LCS royalty has been long hard and above all hilarious the team is now fighting to not be relegated out of the LCS and a win on DIG would keep them from that. Its a reach but as long as lemonnation has such a glorious beard i will believe in the C9 dream and a shot at not getting relegated this season.

3.TSM (9-4) VS team Liquid(9-4)
Now this is a match ladies and gentlemen TL wants to climb to a dominate second place standing and want to make sure TSM stays lower on the standings. Now this match is more than that this is the match of the season if you ask me both of these teams are capable of beating Gravity so a second place secure could easily translate into over taking the academy students turned gravity. Ill defenatly tune into this one with huge interest


4. TIP vs T8
well while T8 might be lower in terms of wins and standing they showed that means jack shit in NA with their win on TSM. So what do we have here basically if T8 plays even remotely similar to how they played TSM then they should beat TIP. However TIP plays a balls to the wall(literally) play style that could throw any plans off guard in the long run but long story short should be a toss up


5.CLG(8-5 soon to be 9-5) VS TDK(1-13 oops i mean 1-12)

Well while TDK needs this win i cant see them taking one off CLG,CLG is no DIG they no matter how on tilt they may be they wont fall to that level. This will be a stomp but i wont be surprised to much if CLG throws the game and TDK pick up a win to try to claw out of relegation zone.  Who knows boys who really knows anymore.

Chris Bradwal highlights some issues in the LCS coaching staff

Today in LCS News the Chris BradawI ruling bans him from pro LCS for a year. Riot don't play no games baby especially when this guy has no one not two not three but 6 different teams coming add fuel to his funeral pyre. The teams according to gamespot.com that have come forward to support allegations of poaching and general misbehavior in the league are as follows. Team liquid,TSM,Cloud 9,Gravity,Impulse and Winterfox. All have provided statements to GameSpot supporting the allegations against Bradawl. He stands accused of going to several players who where under contract to play for his challenger team some may not think this is so bad but lets really look at what this is. This is some back room deal movie mafia type shit shady is one way you could describe his actions not nearly as good of a pick but hey its one. This is a video interview where regi talks about the ruling in question.

Chris BadawI has released a statement in his defense provided by gamespot.com 
"This collection of assertions comes as a complete surprise – I am bewildered and quite puzzled. I’ll work with Travis to address these point by point at a later date. Since I was only notified an hour prior to their release (I believe this is the industry standard) I will need to actually read these statements prior to doing so. It’s hard for me to make sense out of all of this, except to say this seems like a strange and personal outburst painting me in an extraordinarily bad light without evidence of any kind. I’ll just finish by asking everyone to keep in mind that I actually haven’t poached anyone, and that whatever it is we are all about to read you take with a grain of salt."

Final thoughts about this bit of LCS News
If all these statements are true then his actions not only undermined his own integrity but that of the entire league and maybe the whole community. If it turn out he was poaching players like African ivory hunters in the savanna then riot clearly did the right thing in my opinion. Tell me yours in the comments bellow.

EU week 6 day 1 draft with benspore

Besides the three top teams in the EU LCS, it’s crunch time. Fnatic (FNC) is 10-0, Origen is 8-2, and H2k-Gaming (H2K) is 7-3 and are pretty much guaranteed to advance into the playoffs. The rest of the pack are all mathematically alive for the other spots with Giants Gaming (GG) sitting pretty at fourth-place with a 5-5 record.
The parity, or futility, is very much alive for the European split. It means that match ups mean that much more for fantasy owners because any team can take down any team (unless you’re FNC, Origen, or H2K). So, let’s break down each match up and find some of the best values for the start of week six.
GG Vs CW

Pick GG TOP Cabochard
It’s not too crazy to state that GG and Copenhagen Wolves (CW) have struggled this split. Both teams sit at the bottom of the standings with little hope for improvement. That said, they play each other in a battle of hapless teams. A squash match with even competition should amplify the typically dead value of both team’s core players. That means that GG’s mid, Betsy ($1152) and top, Cabochard ($950) are both in play. The risk to a bad team match-up is the potential of one dominating the other so pick the better team to Win is GG. Good thing this match  everyone is cheap so there should be a ton of value there.
ROCCAT Vs SK Gaming 

Pick RoCCAT  Jankos 
 ROCCAT will need Jankos and Steve to continue their positive play and MrRalleZ to build on his week’s improvement. Those three cores are borderline plays with Jankos the best of the bunch to invest in.Hopefully they can pull of a win but anything gose in EU Basicly no certainty
GG VS FNATIC
OMG this shouldnt be pretty i know anythings possible in the LCS but not sure if GG can pull a upset a kin to a miracle if you ask me. This will be a one side stomp now the only question is will GG make it a fight or die quickly? Im not sure but i am sure it wont be a great game for GG
UOL VS ORG

Pick Xpeke
Well isnt this a cute lttle match up Origen just stomps bad opponents and UoL qualifies as that. They take early advantages and risks to snowball into the midgame and end before the clock ticks 35. It doesn’t spell for a good fantasy game for UoL fans, but Origen does warrant a little consideration if they clean up well. 
H2k Vs elements 

Winner H2k EL has potential but every team has that what seperates the good teams from the trash teams are results. EL cant put up results so for that reason i can only say that so far they seem to be utter trash and should make quick work for H2k this day.
Well those are my predictions and some fantasy picks tell me how they turn out in the comments bellow.
