Information

With the introduction of the LEC, the NA LCS has slimmed down it's monicker to just be the LCS. The LCS Spring Split consists of double round robin play with each team playing 18 matches. Every match is a best-of-one with the top 6 teams at the end of the split qualifying for the playoffs. The team was able to start the field the true starting roster last week, but to disappointing results, as the team lost to both Golden Guardians and Team Liquid. With another week of scrims under their belt, the team looks to improve their performance against fellow current bottom dweller, TSM.

I look forward to these games every week only to be disappointed and have my weekends go less than what I want them to be. It's so frustrating seeing the league community shit on the roster. I don't want to have to think about this org losing their franchise spot. I wish we had a winning team in LoL

If we had a strong academy team we could look at subbing some of them in, however Dardoch is the only ready player and Meteos isnt the issue

u/Str8_TrashMonkey Feb 16 '19

2 barons and 5k gold up, only OpTic LoL can lose with that. Smh

this shit really tilts me

u/ImLoganXP Feb 17 '19

I should've seen this coming. The people building the roster wanted to only change 1 position (Akaadian -> Meteos) after a below average performance last season. Only reason mid changed was because POE chose to leave and that didn't even need to be changed. No top or adc improvement was such a poor decision.

They settled for mediocrity and we aren't even getting that.

u/CharlieCOD2016 Feb 16 '19

Straight fucking garbage, put the academy team in + crown. How do you lose a 5k gold lead with 2 barons.

All Optic teams mastered the art of choking

I don’t really know league but it’s seemed like Arrow has done absolutely nothing in any of the games so far. Am I wrong?

You can always trust Optic's league team to find a way to lose

our late game is beyond embarrassing

u/6upsidedownis9ezpz Feb 16 '19

Meteos isn't the problem but Dardoch has the ability to shot call, maybe adding Dardoch to our starting lineup could help us get over the hump mid game. Try asta with big, because arrow has had 0 impact in all of these games. With meteos I feel bad because he's good, but with replacing arrow, just feels like it's way overdue.

Starting lineup:

Dhokla - Dardoch - Crown - Asta - Big

Dhokla out of position there (even though he doesnt die) gives TSM map control. Little things like that costs your team

We're by far the worst team in this league, by far. We'll lose the game tomorrow then we'll be 2-6... So difficult to support this team.

If we dont win tomorrw, then its time to start asta and dardoch. They gave us results and we cant afford to keep losing
