Now that I think about it more that might not even be needed. It's just the problem with the players being so set in their "roles" that they hurt themselves. A previous poster said Jacky should be played like a 3 and Voy like a 2 which would mean Jacky goes into the offlane 1v2 and Voy gets the solo lane which means 100% sense. Voy is the playmaker, he's the one they want to get farm so why are they still making Jacky get the farm instead. Seems to be just a holdover from the days where lanes were 100% set instead of adapting to the current game.

Remember when voyboy was on CLG? and he was shit? wanna know why? CLG forced picks on Voyboy because they played off of overall picks, Dig is very similar in that respect. Curse GIVES voyboy the freedom to play what he wants, Dig would not.

That feels more a case of them just doing it randomly without thought. An ahri in a 1v2 setup seems completely counter productive lol. It would be more like jacky playing a tank but I guess he can't play that. Meh players are just far too set in their "I am AP player" mindset.

It's like everyone forgot that Dig was more than happy to trade away voyboy in the 3 man trade.

Hardly, it was because HS was in jungle. That alone is enough to make any top laner look bad.

See what happens in the West is that the players themselves govern the team so obviously it would be rare for them to willingly swap themselves out. In Korea it's a lot more common for the organizations/coaches to govern the teams so it's easier to have a 6/7 man roster. I'd imagine Curse might be able to do that since Liquid basically has all the power to do what he wants but don't know if it will happen. Just makes so much sense.

But if you can honestly say "I'd rather have Kiwikid as my top laner, than Voyboy", then... I don't know, it's like dividing by zero. You just don'T do that.

If that were the truth, Curse would be drafting these blatantly op'd champs for Voyboy every single time. Voyboy gets a lot of reign in what he chooses to play (been said in a few interviews), bad top lane drafting is Voyboy's fault. The lack of op'd drafting we see from Voyboy, then suggests a) he chooses non-op'd champs cuz he feels he can play his awkward picks better than non-op'd champ or b) because he doesn't feel comfortable with op'd champs. Either way, both don't fit with how Dig likes to draft.
He can either stay with Curse who continue let to do whatever he wants, equivalently good supporting cast, bigger mansion, bigger paycheck, and a cool dog.
OR he could join Dig, get smaller house and live in closet like Crumbzz, smaller paycheck, equivalent support cast, and less freedom in picks.
As far as the last comment, it really depends on the type of team I'm making. Obviously if I'm making a Maknoon-type team, then ya, Voyboy best pick. If I'm like Dig, who wants full control of draft, why would I switch it up with another top laner that is known to play awkward picks?

This may not be fotm to talk about, but I feel like phreak is bored with casting. He always trails off now after jatt says something and says "well that's that".

Erm mate, even if I agree that voyboy is a better top laner than kiwi the hyperbole is pretty strong in that post.
First of all not a single poster in this thread could replace ANY LCS pro without months and months of hardcore practice. Hell unless I missed someone I'm not even sure we have any of the high profile TL players joining this discussion.
Second while Kiwi might not be the most impressive player on Dig, he is almost certainly exactly what his team wants him to be. They like having Scarra and qtpie as their big carries, with crumbs making plays from the jungle, that is how they play pretty much every game they are winning. Maybe mechanically someone else would be better (heck almost certainly if you include Korean or Chinese players), but LoL is a TEAM game in the end. Your 1on1 mechanics aren't even 20% of the end result, coordination and teamwork in all aspects is what wins this game.
Yes it might be nice if they had a flashy top laner who has mad skillz and can outplay everyone, but frankly no team has more than 2 players of that kind. Mostly because they are almost never good teamplayers. It doesn't matter how great your 1v1 flash dodge into whatever play is if your team can't coordinate those moves into a strategy (or even a single teamfight). Just think back to the allstar matches in spring and how stupid the EU Team looked. That is what happens when 5 people who are all great players have 0 coordination.
Also unless you are a secret pro whose name I have never heard of, you'd almost certainly get eaten alive if you ever try to lane against voyboy. Op champion or not. Kiwi managed to come out ahead 2 times in a row today, so he can't be that bad can he ?
