just watched a few bits of the kcorp vs giantx game and. im gonna be real with yall. ive watched a lot of lolesports in my time. most of it is lcs. like probably at least 800 games/600 hours lifetime. so as you can imagine i have seen some dogshit gameplay. i watch immortals. i watch dignitas. i watch immortals vs dignitas. and some of those kcorp vs giantx plays are STILL the worst ive seen. i genuinely think lcs's play level is higher than lec's right now. sadge. the mighty have fallen.

i am so fucking grumpy why am i sick i have so much stuff i needed to do this week and i just wanted to study hard on saturday so that i could have fun on sunday and take myself on a date and buy all my favourite foods and now im too exhausted to do anything but eat canned soup and microwaved oatmeal and hot water with honey

im not even SICK sick the back of my throat is just clogged and nasty and my nose is runny and it hurts to swallow

if i didnt know better i would think i have allergies but i have never had seasonal allergies in my life why is this starting now this is awful timing

there is no way the lec broadcast just put up THIS CLIP where nuc hits a 3-man cassio ult into crownie hitting a 3-man aphelios ult and sheo knocks all of them up, killing bo and photon INSTANTLY, and NO ONE SAID ANYTHING about it. not even a SINGLE "whoa look at that". right??? please tell me im lagging. please. tell me they said something about it.

esports irl rant

re: the pfp change, i did decide today that i want to be a little cute nonhuman thing specifically bc of a Male Gaze Incident™. like im just chilling in my uni's esports discord with my janna pfp and someone tags me and says "sheesh is janna single?" and. like. dude. why do you feel the need to tell me that the picture i am using to represent myself is hot. why cant i just exist as this anime girl and have no one comment on it. no one is tagging the straight cis guy whose pfp is star guardian kaisa and telling him his pfp is hot. why are you bothering me. is it because im nonbinary and bi. i specifically chose a janna pfp i thought was fairly un-sexy JUST to avoid this, i used a summoner icon that is literally just her face and the most neutral expression i could find and someone STILL felt the need to single me out and comment on the fact that the fictional woman in my pfp was good-looking. fuck off, man.

add that to the fact that ive already dealt with one guy from uni esports asking me out in the past month and another one who hit on me relentlessly last semester and im so tired of men in esports. the reason i dont have my irl face as my esports discord pfp is BECAUSE i dont want to be recognised irl and hit on. i dont WANT to be seen as attractive because of how my body looks. the only person i want to think of me as hot is me. let me be as unfuckable as possible PLEASE i just wanna be romantically and sexually left alone!!!

its so irritating

platonically though i'd kiss all of you, my dear tumblr beloveds, on the mouth. <3

edit: might change the icon back to an esports man in a week if i feel less intensely about it, or recommend other matching pfps! it truly was fun being razork for a couple of months but i think i stole his onstage success too alskdjflskdj

ASK AND YE SHALL RECEIVE but like.... okay... at the start i was really hyped for evi, i didn't know much about ruby but i was super stoked cause the team looked interesting yknow? with the added bonus of jankos my beloved, but over time i'm just.... man. since k'sante got nerfed it really feels like evi is having THE hardest time ever during games. today's game in particular made me physically ache to watch because i could tell that jankos and jack were trying SO hard while evi sprinted and ruby did next to nothing damage wise :x i keep thinking back to last weekend too, where jankos was playing *while sick with the flu* and still hard carried ruby and evi, i wish i knew what more that man (+ jack and mersa, they've been doing half decently imo) had to do to get these wins but it feels like the solo lanes make it so hard for zero fucking REASONNNNNNNNNNNN

its so fucking sad to watch jankos go from G2 where he was on such a dominating team to fighting to stay out of last, honestly get this man solo laners who can perform from behind or at the very least not sprint it down and i'll be infinitely happier (wunder..... odo, even... hell, abbedagge's on the bench and powerofevil doesn't have a team right now and it certainly can't get worse from here for heretics!!)



youre so right. i keep on hearing about how jankos is trying his hardest to carry games for hrt (i canNOT perform independent analysis worth two cents im bronze 4) but yeah... genuinely i dont know what heretics were trying to do with this roster, i get bringing jackspektra to lec bc he was with the team previously, i get taking mersa from misfits bc he may not have been a standout support but he wasnt bad, obviously getting jankos is a great move for any org, but EVI?? ruby came from ERLs but i have no idea who thought getting evi would be better than bringing iBo to lec. iBo even had preexisting synergy from working with jackspektra for a year

throughout pretty much all of jankos's career he's been paired with strong laners (see: being perkz's dog for over TWO THIRDS of his LEC career) and hes had a lot of success as a supportive-style jungler... it sucks to see him struggling through this split

honestly if heretics got odo and vetheo from ecel, i think theyd have a great shot at playoffs on paper. from his time on misfits vetheo looked like a strong laner and odo has always been well-respected

this pregame segment is actually absurdly long. why are they taking over 20 minutes to talk about this match. its actually kinda annoying me, theyre already behind schedule, this is excessive, lcs doesnt fall behind like this
