I won't lie, first of all, I asked Fusilero isn't it April Fool.
DarkWinJax with 1830 reports in 590 games is legendary.

First of all, I'm always amazed that someone like DarkWinJax actually still plays the game, respect.
Second of all, LEMONDOGS WITH INCARNATION CONFIRMED?
|
Regarding DarkwinJax, I'm surprised Riot were as soft as only extending his suspension by 4 splits, rather than just throwing up their hands, dismissing him as a hopeless case and making his ban permanent. The guy is never going to change because he clearly has not the slightest interest in doing so, because he obviously doesn't believe the rules of acceptable behavior apply to him.
It's like I always say: Douchebags act like douchebags because they're douchebags. Expecting a complete twat like Abusagr to stop being a jerk to everybody he plays with is like expecting a dog to stop licking its balls in public.

I think the case of Incarnati0n will be interesting. He has talent but there's a lot of mid-lane talent in EU and, maybe more importantly, there's a lot of mid-lane talent that also has competitive experience, something he does not have.
He's great in solo-queue but playing on a stage, with a team, against another team of talented guys is a whole 'nother ball game. We have seen talented players end up not doing well once they're in that situation and it'll be interesting to see where he ends up.
|
I hope, wherever Incarnati0n goes, that he actually performs up to the standard people are setting him up for.

It's not like he never played in team with talented guys, lomo. Gambit or SK incarnati0n is pretty much obvious right now, only real question, will InnerFlame go for it and bench Fox/nRated for some clear upgrades like incarnati0n/Zytan or incarnati0n/Hylissang.

I just hope that its not CLG_Incarnation. There is something rotten in Denmark.

Why would Hylissang leave UoL? I thought they were one of those group-of-5-friends teams (well, 4 friends and Kikis).
I would expect incarnati0n to go to NA tbh. Lower level of competition to allow him to cut his teeth and get up to speed, and he'd be an instant upgrade over pretty much anyone not named Bjergsen or XiaoWeiXiao.

ROCCAT.Incarnati0n + ROCCAT.MrRalleZ hype. Also ROCCAT.ZoroZero instead of Overpow and we have a perfect team ^^

He will not join SK, Fox is InnerFlame favourite player, maybe beside Zoro. Right now Fox is better then Incarnation, since he had break, no reason to risk. Also Incarnation and Forgiven in one team, they would kill each other after few scrims. Gambit/NA or package deal with Rekkles.

Hm. SK and Fnatic would probably both be interested if their midlaners massively choked in playoffs and otherwise not at all. H2K might be but probably not. UoL very unlikely. Gambit possible I guess? And if I'm Europe's best soloq talent then I'm not sure if I want to join Wolves and anything below.
Personally I'd love to see Team Solo Mebdi v2 with Dexter, Zoro, Tabzz/Rekkles and Hiva/Zytan, but that's probably very much a fan's dream :p

How good is Incarnati0n? Never heard of him but people seem to think he is good? Has he played in the LCS?

He never played in LCS but he is constantly in the top of challenger. My personal opinion is that one team will give him a chance and he will be either average or fail. Amen!

Incarnati0n was part of team which had to qualify for first split of LCS but half of them got banned and other were nukeduck and YamatoCannon, not the kindest players ever :p
He was always hailed as legit player, but after getting banned, he really rose with his 30-0-0 Fizz and other things to be #1 in soloqueue for 1,5 years.

I would prefer if they would unban DarkwinJax and XJ9
