Honestly, I trash talk because its fun, Team Liquids star jungler Joshua Dardoch Hartnett told ESPN.com following his teams 2-0 weekend over Cloud9 and Team Envy. Suspended at the start of the split, Dardoch has returned to the lineup. Coupled with the emergence of promoted TL Academy AD carry Jovani Fabbbyyy Guillen, it has lifted the team to a 6-4 record after five weeks, following a tough 0-3 stretch to begin the split.Im confident in my play, Dardoch continued. I just trash talk because whos going to follow a team leader that isnt confident? If I go into every set saying, Oh yeah, its 50-50, either team can win, then nobody on my team is going to go in there ready to play and win.From its beginnings as Team Curse to the present day Team Liquid, the club has failed to live up to expectations throughout its history. Anytime there was a feeling of glory on the horizon, something would go wrong and the team would swing back to the starting line. In the five years of the organizations existence, it has never made it to the World Championships.An organization that has prided itself on strong veteran leadership has withdrawn to welcome a new generation. With talented and brash youngsters like Dardoch, Team Liquid hopes this revolution of adolescents can become the golden generation. Out of the current starters on the team, four of them started out on the Academy squad under the main roster in the League Championship Series. Over the course of the last year, the hardened faces of battle have transitioned into the likes of the Matt Matt Elento in the support role and Samson Lourlo Jackson playing the top lane role.The community backlash -- just as many people are supporting me as hating me, he said, divulging his thoughts on how some parts of the community see his trash talk as unprofessional and bad for the sport. Im cool taking all the heat. If I trash talk and I get all the blame -- as long as [my teammates] arent getting the hate -- I can take it all. I have thick skin. I dont care at all about [what] any of these people say about me.That quote summarizes what Ive learned of Dardochs personality from previous interviews. Hes straight to the point most of the time, and he stands behind it. Hell give out compliments where he sees fit with opponents, yet doesnt shy away from believing in his own abilities as well. When it comes to his teammates, hed rather be the one getting all the criticism and negative comments. As the leader of this possible golden generation, Dardoch believes he can deflect any unfavorable press that comes his way, as long as his team sticks beside him.We ran into a bunch of internal problems in Korea, he said. Theyre getting resolved, and were pretty well off now. Were progressively getting better.Team Liquid has never made it to a North American League Championship Series Final. Not as Team Curse. Not with Curse Academy. Closer the last two splits as Team Liquid, but both times losing in the semifinals. With only one regular season title under the clubs belt, there has been a drought of success for Liquid as an organization in League. The addition of former world champion Chae Piglet Gwang-jin at the start of the 2015 year was supposed to be the next -- and more successful -- chapter in the history book of Team Liquid. And although Piglet has been individually one of the better players in the NA LCS the past two years, the team itself has no NA LCS finals appearance to show for it.[Fabbbyyy] is probably going to be our starter for the rest of the split, he said. Piglet brings the experience, game knowledge, and has the macro understanding, but me and Matt have picked up the macro understanding so we dont need that from Piglet. Fabbbyyy has more motivation. Hes hungrier to improve and win, so he has that over Piglet. And hes not picky with his champion pool. Like, Fabbbyyy will pick a perceivably bad lane matchup 2v2, but hell pick it if its better for the team. Where Piglet will, most of the time, just want to dominate the lane.When discussing the differences between the two players more, Dardoch wanted to make sure it was a joint decision between the team and Piglet. Piglet wanted to reset his mind and is feeling better playing with the Academy squad at the moment, and Fabbbyyy is proving his mettle by performing in the major leagues. And while Dardoch and Piglet get along and there is nothing personal about the decision, the current meta fits the style Fabbbyyy brings to the team more than Piglets. In a landscape where selflessness rules the bottom lane and the game is played towards the middle and topsides of the map, the rookie American is currently a better fit in the starting five.It wasnt Piglets fault that we were losing when we had him on the team, he said. We had -- the other four -- little to no knowledge. We didnt know how to play the game as a team. So even when Piglet got these 40, 50 CS advantages in-lane, multiple kills, we still couldnt close out the game because we were just a worse team. It had no problems with Piglet.Liquid last season was a one-dimensional team. Piglet and Matt, if left alone in a two-on-two matchup, would win lane, pick up kills, and start snowballing on the rest of the map. As long as Piglet was able to get off to a good start and the team was able to keep up the pace into the mid-game with at least a bit of finesse in closing, Liquid looked to be a championship contender. When teams neutralized the bottom lane, however, TLs mid-to-late-game management was shown to be subpar, and the rest of the team wouldnt be able to get anything else going unless Dardoch found momentum early in the laning phase.This group from TL wants to change that trend. A one-dimensional team, as shown last split, can get only as far as fourth place. For Liquid, anything but the World Championships this year as a top three seed from North America would be a massive failure. Fourth isnt an option.I honestly thought it would be bad when Piglet left because hes the only Korean, said Dardoch, talking about the fifth (and only non-Academy) starter on the squad, Kim FeniX Jae-hun. But FeniX is so Americanized now that hes not living in Korea anymore. All he does is spam North American memes in our comms and really jokes around. Me and him got a lot closer, so I feel like hes just as comfortable.Graduation time has come for the four Academy members that presently sit in the Team Liquid house as starters. Many doubted at least at one point their maturity level, talent, ability to perform on the main stage. But theyve come together to bring Liquid into the forefront of teams in a competitive NA LCS campaign.To everyone who has supported me for so long, just thanks a lot, Dardoch said. The suspension stuff is over. The fall of TL is hopefully over, and were definitely on an upward trend. I think this is the split well definitely break the fourth place curse. Nike Tn For Sale Nz . Tomas Berdych and Radek Stepanek defeated Nenad Zimonjic and Ilija Bozoljac 6-2, 6-4, 7-6 (4) on the indoor hard-court at Belgrade Arena. The victory improved the Czech pairs impressive cup doubles record to 14-1. Nike Air Max Plus Tn Ultra Nz . -- There were a lot of firsts for the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night. http://www.airvapormaxnz.com/ .

Andrew Wiggins made 10-of-12 from the foul line and scored 17 for Kansas (14-4, 5-0 Big 12), which capped a stretch of four straight games against ranked opponents unscathed. Cheap Vapormax China . Detroit and Boston are deadlocked, 1-1, and Tigers manager Jim Leyland could be forgiven if he was caught rationalizing instead of dissecting how his club could blow a 5-1 lead late in Game 2. If every match were for a cup trophy, Alan Pardews Crystal Palace side would be in far better shape than they are entering Saturdays contest against Bournemouth in a matchup of the current bottom two teams in the Premier League at Selhurst Park.Pardews Eagles (0-0-2) -- 2016 FA Cup runners-up -- are the only team to have failed to score in their opening two matches and are out of the cellar only due to a slightly better goal difference than the Cherries (0-0-2). The selling of Yannick Bolasie to Everton has contributed to a slow start in league play that Pardew is hoping isnt a hangover of last seasons form from Boxing Day to now.But there is help on the way.Record signing Christian Benteke made his debut in Tuesdays 2-0 League Cup victory over Blackpool as Palace advanced to play at Southampton in the third round next month. After a 45-minute stint, Pardew may hand the ￡32 million man his first Premier League action.Christian Benteke had 45 minutes, I thought he showed flashes of why we spent a club record fee on him, Pardew told the teams official website. He hasnt had a lot of match action and even though we were on the side of a caution with him tonight, he looks really good.I will have a think about tonight; look at whats available before I decide whether he will be in my starting lineup on Saturday.Benteke was out of place in Jurgen Klopps high-pressing Liverpool offence, but Pardew is hedging the Belgium international will find the form that helped him score 42 goals over three seasons at Aston Villa. He also thinks Benteke can form a potent combination with Connor Wickham, who sealed Tuesdays win with a goal early in the second half.He has had a great responsibility being the only striker that we have had available due to injuries and there has been a lot of pressure on him, Pardew said of the 23-year-old Wickham. With Christians arrival he has had a bit of a weight lifted from him, he was fresher, sharper and looked better for it.If this is Pardews first-choice pairing, it makes sense disgruntled winger Wilfried Zaha is looking for an exit plan. Palace reportedly rejected a ￡15 million bid for Zaha by Tottenham Hotspur, who are in need of building depth for Champions League play, on Thursday.The 23-year-old Zaha, who came up through Palaaces academy, had five goals in 43 matches last season.dddddddddddd.After scoring 23 goals in the first 17 matches last season during which Palace accumulated 29 points, they have netted just 16 while going 2-7-14 in their previous 23 starting with a scoreless draw at Bournemouth on Boxing Day. Around those 23 league matches, the Eagles have recorded six cup victories.Like Crystal Palace, Bournemouth are trying to find their way and hoping a League Cup victory serves as an elixir for their struggles. The Cherries advanced to the third round by grinding out a 2-1 win at League Two leaders Morecambe on Wednesday, with Marc Wilson scoring the winner early in the second half.Bournemouth had only one goal in losses to Manchester United and West Ham United, and manager Eddie Howe is eager to use this performance as a springboard to break into the win column.You need to win to get that winning feeling, Howe explained to the teams official website. Moments like this can be the starting point for a season, it has given us a good platform.Fair play to the players for their reaction to the equalizer. They showed great character to get a grip on the game again, we had a few chances (that) werent clinical the way the came.Dating back to last season, the Cherries have just one win in their last 10 league matches (1-1-8), scoring more than one goal just once in that span.Wilson, who was injury-plagued for much of last season with Stoke City before signing on with Bournemouth this summer, is eager to build on his first match after missing seven months with a knee injury that caused him to miss the European Championship for Ireland.When I recovered with my knee I knew it was strong this time, I knew it was right, Wilson said. I was working hard on it and I was gutted I missed the Euros, so I wanted to get it right this time.This is where Im at and Im concentrating on doing well at Bournemouth now.The Cherries took four points from last seasons two matches, including a 2-1 victory at Selhurst Park. Scott Dann and Marc Pugh traded goals seven minutes apart in the first half before Benik Afobe scored just before the hour for Bournemouth. ' ' '
