EU LCS Season 4 - Page 38 - League of Legends -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Don`t agree that NA toplaners are better, it`s hard to tell anyways as the EU toplane meta is different and favors aatrox a lot. Wickd is good imo, just not really good at picking up a new champ quickly. He was really bad at the start of the game but started playing better later on. I´m really excited for worlds to see how those toplane matchups go.

You might not, I've tried it both ways but I just started trying him again last few days, he's still super fun

Alliance as a whole hasnt played all that well either so putting the blame fully on Wickd isnt fair. He has been the worst but except for Froggen the rest hasnt really showed up yet.

On blue now i want to see Alliance banning Trist and forcing a Kog ban or picking it first. Force a Kog ban and mid opens up and removes hyper carries from Candy.

You guys are giving Wickd a lot of flack but to be fair he played 3 new toplaners in those matches and even though he didn`t perform good he didn`t get crushed

Also I`m pretty sure I said it months ago that tanky Swain could be a thing. Next thing we see is Leona top you heard it here first

There is like no Toplaner who played a big amount of champs and played on toptierlvl on them(EU + NA only obv). Preparation time for the playoffs haven`t been long as well, Alistar/Mao/Swain

Ackerman? He does very well with both AP and melee champions.
