Surprisingly little puns, is phreak ok? Is he sick? If you're forced to cut down the puns, blink twice.

FWIW there are different writers from spotlight to spotlight and some take a more humorous approach than others. As I was busy with MSI, I didn't have a lot of time to add more jokes in myself. This isn't to place blame on anyone. I think Bel'Veth's spotlight is good.

That said, I've seen the script for the champion after this one and... I'm excited :)

I, for one, am completely shocked by this conclusion.

Really don't get what riots balancing vision is for Senna. Whenever fasting is meta, they nerf it and then buff adc. As soon as the adc version is better, they nerf it and buff fasting. Seems like an endless loop of buffs and nerfs.

Pretty sure the vision is ultra simple: both should be viable but not OP. IDK why folks have a hard time with this lol

I get that "ggez" is not exactly clever but it is funny to me. Most often I type that when we lose hard, which makes it even funnier (to me at least).

funny is subjective and you might think it's a dumb lame joke but it's certainly not a personal attack. Riot shouldn't be policing what's funny, only what's toxic.

Hey that’s the great thing about reports. It’s not Riot policing it. It’s actual players reporting people who are assholes and riot goes “ah they get reported frequently, let’s see what they’ve been up to.”

So… you’re still wrong! Nice!

This is comical coming from the most toxic person at riot. Listening to your pathetic trash talk to EU every international event is neither clever nor funny. The fact that you even think of yourself as comedic talent, is pure irony.

More like you guys at Riot have taken it away from everyone. Post a meme like ggez at the end of the game? Boom enjoy the report. Hilarious how it's okay for pros to trash talk and meme, but you best not do it in game!

Ggez to strangers after winning a solo queue game is not clever or funny trash talk. It’s just being an asshole. The fact that you don’t get that is… well, crickets is an accurate description of your comedic talent.

We never even got to see a single week of Pro Play on this patch tho?

I mean pro play is ALWAYS slower and safer than solo queue.

Towers being incredibly lethal will obviously dissuade dives. You don't need to watch teams slowly adapt to the game to know that.

Are you putting Ming below Xiaohu and if so who are you booting out for Xiaohu of Faker Mata Rookie Deft Uzi plus a bunch of others imo including Doinb if you are claiming Xiaohu is top 5.

Deft is likely not top 5. Mata and Rookie are debatable but again, haven't given it much thought.

The top 5 I'm somewhat confident in is Faker (duh), Uzi, Xiaohu.

Imo the top 3 supports of all time are easily Ming, Meiko, and Mata. If you have time to think about it, how would you rank them? Before this year I always ranked Mata 1st, but by now I think Ming has claimed the top spot, and for Meiko even with his successful last year he still remains 3rd for me. What do you think?

I think a huge problem with all-time lists is they're too narratively driven.

Like how good are we going to consider, e.g. Madlife, who won almost nothing?

How low are we rating Bengi despite being there for virtually every SKT victory, but the LCK analysts kept saying he was bad? I'm not saying he's Faker level or anything but how much of our memory of him as a player is tainted by people just calling him bad even though he was always very good at Worlds/MSI?

IDK I don't generally want to get into specifics without spending considerable time on such a list.

Up there for sure. Top 3 easily imo. I haven’t given it much thought.

Yes Phreak, PSG being up 5k vs non wombo comp, is comparable to T1 being 5k up vs a 5 man knock-up Yasuo comp! Great analysis! God phreak just doesn't know what he's talking about.

Yeah how dare I say anything but “this game is over” lmao you’re trolling.
