Enters the training arc, hyperbolic time chamber, side characters are introduced, half the anime passes, training arc completed, end up weaker than they were before. Tragic but completely hilarious
didnt help that monte kept cocksucking koreans then brought over seraph one of the first korean imports who could barely speak English and was like a bottom 3 top laner in the league. Man that split turned into a joke, I don't think you could make a bigger joke out of that team.
Iirc, one of the biggest side effects of CLG going to Korea to bootcamp was that TSM took a lot of their fanbase and never gave it back. CLG didn't stream during the bootcamp, and those viewers switched to TSM and a result TSM was the most popular NA team for years and years.
Few Key Details that this video misses and its semi unnecessary but I think are worth noting -Doublelift in his reflections with Thorin talked about scrimming vs all the best OGN teams in 2014. Mind you this was peak OGN/LCK before the Korean Exodus and before the sister team ban. This was the most concentrated Korean talent had ever been in LoL because the starters were amazing and there was tons of yet to be discovered talents who were relegated to scrim teams. Doublelift said that Samsung White was truly an unbeatable team during their bootcamp and said in like 20 games versus them they never took a single game because of how unbeatable imp and mata were during that era -According to Monte in a few interviews, team morale and work ethic was BAAAAD. Which this video touches on. He specifies one examples where the team was having a meeting before scrims and Link legit refused to get out of bed despite multiple times he and Kelby had to be like "Dude we're having a meeting and we're all waiting on you. Get out of bed" and he would just be on his laptop not giving a fuck -Monte revealed this a handful of years back but this was only from his PoV. They had worked on some specialized comps that fit the overall direction and style of CLG during that time that Monte said would've at least given them a fighting chance in LCS Summer. 2 Weeks prior to playoffs the OGN Summer Finals happened where KT Arrows won in game 5 vs Samsung Blue where KT and Samsung had a ton of emphasis on Kog'Maw during this meta. According to Monte he specifically said "Do Not Try This And Remember What We Practiced On" and then when playoffs happen Link is all of a sudden playing Mid Kog (which remains his only Kog in Competitive) and then they just proceed to get rolled by Curse
l1nk being a bum doesn't surprise me AT ALL. He was basically what pobeltor ended up being minus finding success lol. Bro was prob on his laptop writing the manifesto if anything.
@@hobo4490 It's true. The present DL now have talked about the very old CLG roster which him and Link were in. DL talked about he held accountability for his actions because let's be honest prime DL was toxic but for the most part Peter was telling the truth about Link. Link wasn't working hard enough than everyone else which fired up DL. Link later on got kicked for a new CLG mid laner.
It always cracks me up hearing how they threw all of the prep out the window just to play what the best team picked. That's what you get for trying to coach a bunch of kids and expecting professional behaviour. Poor Monte....
seraph had at no point a right to be in that team lol im pretty positive a roster without him and link woudlve actually worked out, but the staff didnt think about team chemistry of their personas at all. the stories of DL which he is telling on stream from time to time are hilarious
Korea is where top league of legends gets played. It’s like if a Korean basketball team with an American coach went to America to train and you said “lol flying 5 players to America rather than 1 guy to Korea.”
One problem with account sharing is that someone else could play on it for a while, get in trouble (chat restriction, suspension or permaban) & then leave you without an account. Sure you can claim that it wasn't you playing at the time but unless you have some way to definitively prove it (i.e. it was hacked) it doesn't matter since you could easily say "oh it wasn't me playing" when it actually was to try to get out of a legitimate punishment. Another problem comes from account sellers selling hacked and/or banned accounts. You might think it's a good idea to buy an account with all this neat stuff on it but below the surface it's already in hot water, and one slip-up is all it takes to get it truly axed. Do the account sellers know that? Maybe, maybe not, but it doesn't matter since you're the one who now owns (technically rents) the account & are now the one holding the blame, & admitting to account selling might punish the seller but it'll also definitely punish you by getting both your bought & your main account(s) banned. Ultimately you are responsible for your own account and is something companies like Riot have to treat seriously.
Hard not to flame, but Link is usually the person that comes to mind when I think about huge ego mediocre results. CLG immediately began winning games after he left, he was the sole problem and he kept thinking he was the solution.
Zoomers talking about shit as if they aren't 12. Link was obviously in the right to complain about a team that didn't even know how to ward or do literally anything. Link was obviously by far the best player on his team as well. Sure, his teammates randomly stopped being the worst 4 players in teh LCS the moment he left, but it's impossible to blame link on any of the changes
@@DoggyP00 Link accomplished nothing. Face the music pal, he was shit and blamed it on multiple LCS title-winning players like Aphro and Doublelift and was replaced with a 5-time LCS title winner in Pobelter who took both CLG and Team Liquid to split wins right after. The only person that was donezo after his public breakdown was himself.

Haha that was season 2 when CLG played in champions (LCK).
It worked out for CLG EU though.

Link being the weakest link is ironic

I still say "its just a sivir comp" in chat all the time when Sivir wins in lcs, but I don't think most people recognize the reference anymore lol
I still call good hooks Madlife, but I doubt people would get it these days unlike Insec
Xmithie ult
@@seventh-hydra xmithie LMAO
Got clapped in Korea got clapped even more at home.
another cool fact is that as monte says, it could have been odo instead of seraph, would have been an interesting alternate universe
wtf how random... I just thought of this totally random, then google it and it pop out a video from 3 days ago covering EXACTLY this moment.
RIP CLG LOL team, you're still being missed even though you're under the NRG banner
Deffo sounds like doublelift suggested they went to Korea.
seraph had at no point a right to be in that team lol
im pretty positive a roster without him and link woudlve actually worked out, but the staff didnt think about team chemistry of their personas at all. the stories of DL which he is telling on stream from time to time are hilarious
Oh man I had forgotten about CLG korean bootcamp, such a meme back in the day
The Dunzo Manifesto, good times.
It was Donezo
7:02 Esports pressure AND an unexpected pregnancy?! CLG really is having a bad time.
CLG discovers pregnancy with Faith Age (2014, colorized)
They would've lost anyway. You cant say they would've done better without the boot camp.
They pulled something similar in Season 2.
This happened the first year I was a CLG fan lmao good memories. RIP CLG
What's this issue with getting Korean accounts? You can't simply make a new account in Korea? (I've never played League.)
In Korea, you need an ID to make a league account
plus back in the day you needed to get lv 30 to start ranked and a certain number of champions, dont know how it is today tho
Truly Counter Logic
"doublelift got caught" oof
Thanks for the vid
Why couldn’t they fly the coach out to na?
Great vid as always but uhhhhh 7:03 super weird choice of b-roll here :/ did she just test positive for RIOT GAMES?!
Man, I remember watching some of these games
I miss hotshot
nunu is that you
Next you guys should do better research. Link wasnt let go that season, he left a season later.
If you're not one for DBZ metaphors, you could also say that they were Doin' Dune and gaining Desert Power.
no... That doesn't make any sense on any level
@@DoggyP00 (its just a reference to an online show called Jet Lag)
@@i8dacookies890 oh mb.
I remember watching this in real time vividly but i dont remember it being 10 years ago 🤮
Cmon guys, this story isn't nearly old enough to be getting every fact wrong.
Flying 5 guys to Korea rather than 1 guy to US. Big brain indeed..
Didn’t they fly them to korea because korean level is higher?
Korea is where top league of legends gets played. It’s like if a Korean basketball team with an American coach went to America to train and you said “lol flying 5 players to America rather than 1 guy to Korea.”
This story is hilarious.
thinkcard my goat
boot camp actually work?
wait what??? RIOT hate smurfs too? No Way...
7:02 omg is clg pregnant?????
U put clips in wrong order and have timeline wrong about links donezo manifesto dislike deserved still good editing
11:47 isn't this just wrong?
Link was the single most destructive player in lcs lol
Donezo manifesto was peak
background music and robotic commentary is annoying
Suzie destroyed clg
I remember this. HAHA. It was a SHITSHOW
Only a league brained person would think this would work
What's so bad about account sharing I don't get it
In Korea accounts are tied to what's basically your SIN so account sharing is more serious there
@@SHFYIMTTWBOTmore specifically, it's tied to your cell phone number, which is tied to your Korean social security number.
One problem with account sharing is that someone else could play on it for a while, get in trouble (chat restriction, suspension or permaban) & then leave you without an account. Sure you can claim that it wasn't you playing at the time but unless you have some way to definitively prove it (i.e. it was hacked) it doesn't matter since you could easily say "oh it wasn't me playing" when it actually was to try to get out of a legitimate punishment.

Ultimately you are responsible for your own account and is something companies like Riot have to treat seriously.
YES THE DONEZO MANIFESTO AAHAHAHA
Pick sivir group and win gg
A few unnecessary lies in the videos here and there, gives a slightly skewed narrative about it.

@@Lobsterdeth Also chovy was a terrible player until a few months ago acording to you
@@DoggyP00 You're right we should call Link Chovy Jr., he did win 5 LCK titles in a row.
Nice but you could also do Metal Gear Online 2.
this is a channel about competitive Esports

Instantly lose all credibility by mispronouncing the NA Season 2 MVP's name. It's an X, not an S. Put some respect on the man's name. CHAOX.
