@Reptile9LoL I haven't been keeping up, they're banning people for not trying to win the game now? Would've been nice to know earlier, I thought aegis meant that didn't matter anymore. They can't just keep adding new stuff and expect us to know everything. man my head hurts >.<
Life Update:
Hey it’s been a while since I’ve posted on social media. For those who don’t know, I was playing support in NACL Spring (last half of the split) as a last minute substitute.
I want to play Support in LCS.
For the next two months I’ll be practicing in Korea and becoming the best I can be.
I love League of Legends, I love competing, and I would love to play pro again. I graduate from university in the Fall, and I will be LFT for NACL Summer.
Thanks to anyone who still supports me, all of my former teammates, and the people in the League scene who I have met on this journey.
You never know where life will take you.
What a gusty call from SN. Pulled Baron over the wall with Rumble and hit the smite while Lee Sin was golden.
SN took game 1, last fight came down to an Ori W at her feet, Cait lived off of Zyko support heroics.
It's NACL playoffs, every game must be a banger no exceptions.
saw the recent wave of hopelessness on my timeline and I'll just say that as someone who's gone through the rise and fall since the pre-franchise era,
I still remain optimistic because there are still plenty of ways forward and even more people who care and want to try.
I appreciate @MrsChimChimLOL show and getting this out of Perry, something I've known since Perry's interview with Travis.
Reading through this thread: I've never been more motivated to step away from T2 and my work.
Majority of the thread is talking about why money was thrown away on these players. The reality is it doesn't apply to the minimum salary players, it applies to the orgs that gave Academy players $300k + to buyout jail them from going to LCS teams.
The number quoted was based on California Minimum Salary in the state. These players are competing 8+ hours a day in scrims, not to mention solo queue time in the office. Given the time investment, LEGALLY THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO BE PAID LESS!!
And the community response is they were paid too much and didn't provide value? Blows my fucking mind. How many triple AAA baseball players or G-League basketball players are providing direct value to you as a fan while they try to make it? The value is there when they do and you know what?
The difference of salary between Jojopyun and Humanoid for EG when they went with Jojopyun nearly covered the costs of Academy for the year according to EG.
If you want to talk about the exorbitant salaries of some of the pro players in the space and the lack of monetizing those players and personalities, I would say that's more than fair and I've been on the record for that. But going after T2 players when they got shell shocked by the same people that paid those salaries for the T1 players and within 6 months of me moving out to LA to cover NACL btw, I find to be beyond gross.
0 understanding from the community, and 0 empathy or sympathy from the community for the players who were trying to make it and keep the scene alive with their commitment to trying to go pro.
