Because NintendudeX is his teammate.
Oh, I should have clarified, I wouldn't like Nintendude in the LCS because he's an asshole, more so than your average LCS player.
What specifically makes you feel this way? I'm not challenging the assertion, just curious.
And as mentioned, Cris is notoriously toxic.
yeah that shit's pretty bad
i wonder how much of this can be attributed to people like nintendude or forgiven or mithy or whatever being underslept and overworked kids in super high pressure situations
i guess at age 18 you're not really a kid but still very young and foolish, generally speaking. you can see how someone like voyboy that was always super motivated and positive ended up not having the means to deal with the pressure (tho voyboy is such a nice guy he never said like a single bad word in all his career)
Disclaimer: This is all from rumors and my own (most likely poor) deduction of the situation.
Apparently NintendudeX and various others in the pro League community were making fun of/harassing/etc. various transgender people. Some information of the situation came out when Kate von Roeder (Damiya), former Riot employee, committed suicide. For the issue, I'll just post the tweets. That'll explain the situation better than I can. A couple were deleted but most are there for you to get the situation.
Nintendude's condolences
Deleted tweet here from YunoMaria mentioning (and I'm paraphrasing here) that it pisses them off when people are mourning for Kate when those same people were never kind (possibly understating) to transgender people in the first place.
Maple decideds to reply to this and mention Nintendude.
Maplestreet's tweet and the following replies
Someone else's opinion
Sky's tweet and the following replies are also something to look at.
Have disliked him ever since.
Some season 5 info:
- The Challenger Series (CS) will be changing to a new format that better mirrors the LCS with a six team league with eight weeks of competition (including three weeks of qualifiers).
- The 3rd and 4th place teams from the Expansion Tournament will secure pre-qualified spots in the 2015 Spring Challenger Series.
- CS Spring Qualifiers will begin on January 20 and Spring Split kicks off on February 4. The Ranked Teams ladder lock date for Spring Qualifiers will be January 12, 2015 at noon local time (CEST/PST) for EU and NA. The ladder will not reset before this date.

CLG tried to throw
Was some sloppy figuring til jax tp top and Gankplank went stupid and was gankplankReally? I thought they closed that out pretty cleanly all things considered.

It's a Dignitoss!
They actually needed the game in the first place for Dig to throw it.
I'm sad that GP ended up being useless. I was looking forward seeing some hilarous crits on Doublelift.
So either Doublelift is going to win his first tournament or GMB/M5 is going to win an IEM event for the fourth year in a row (and their fifth all time). I'm cheering for GMB.
