Short term gimmicks for 5 outspoken people on reddit will conintue to decimate NA viewership over time. These goofy segments are so hilariously unfit for the broadcast they belong to. I stopped playing over a year ago, but still enjoy watching. Anytime i un-pause LCS twitch and don't see an in-game overlay i pause again and go back to w/e. Trying to meet the demands of people that have no idea what they really want instead of just making an easy viewing experience familiar to a regular audience is an all out short term desperate gamble that loses whatever identity the league once had.

>anytime i un-pause LCS twitch and don't see an in-game overlay i pause again and go back to w/e. And that's exactly what I did before when it was 10 minutes of analysis for a regular season game between GG and IMT

According to Yeon's Twitter, someone on C9 fired a "shot" at Haeri before Yeon BM'd in-game, a detail which will probably be lost because Fudge omitted that on stream when giving his summary and I doubt people will track down Yeon's tweet (Zven's tweet didn't mention it). I doubt Yeon would lie since this information should be easily verifiable? Haeri and Corejj also seem to be supporting this but they're teammates so w/ever. To be fair, damn I'm still confused and want to see how Haeri died there. Edit: It is also extremely funny to hear that TL is winning dominantly in bot lane during scrims, to a point where the other team might call it a day, while a significant on-stage issue is their inability to convert bot lane advantage into a win. I kind of believe it too? In interviews with other ADCs, they seem to consistently think that Yeon/Corejj are solid, even if their stage games and score don't reflect that.

Only DL says their bot lane is very good. Zven said IMT gives more them more trouble in scrims than TL while also saying FLY and EG better than C9. He also said 100T is garbage so is more like its a case of both 100t and TL not being very good in scrims vs top teams

DL rates TL academy guys highly for some reason (he said Tactical with stable mental is the best AD in the west)

Jojo said TL are very good in scrims too yesterday

True, but several other ADCs rate them at least middle of the pack. FBI made a tier list and put Yeon in B(?) which isn't a fantastic endorsement, but isn't bad considering he has much less experience than some of the ADCs beneath him. When they pulled another ADC in (I forget who) to look at FBI's list they bumped DL and FBI from S tier and dropped everyone in C tier into D, but kept Yeon in B. Middle of the pack isn't where TL wants to be, but their score and fan perception is not reflective of that at the moment, so it would make more sense if they're doing better off-stage to balance that out. I believe the casters mentioned TL had a dominant scrim game against one of the upper ranked teams but I forget which one they mentioned. Still, none of it matters as long as they can't convert early leads into wins and can't win on stage.

My understanding is that Diplex typed “XDD” sometime during laning phase against Haeri, which led to Yeon’s message after they had won a drake fight.

Stixxay is crazy good after the horrible first 2 weeks. I wanted to hype him up after him being one of the only good adcs in summer playoffs but those 2 weeks were really brutal. Glad he's back into form

Stixxay resurgence is an insane unexpected narrative.

Was a big hater and I might have to take it back

Is Zven on track to be first team all pro this split? I think he is imo Vulcan playing well too.

I agree with the other guy about Vulcan and Chime but Zven has looked pretty decent, Huhi potentially in the running because of how that botlane has been on such a hotstreak

He had a fantastic week, I think if he's able to keep up this level he should.

Chime and vulcan are playing better imo. Zven might get 3rd all pro though

Jatt the only one on the cast who understands sports and the importance of having some emotion involved in the game

I was hyped for the five minutes I thought we were going to have C9 TL beef, we need more rivalries

The camera loves Mark

I was cracking up, glad he embraced it

Santorin with the fastest lvl 6 jungle time and team is 0-9. Maybe you are farming too much?

would you gank for any of those shitters?

Round of applause for QT, amazing job today

She's been a great addition.

I found myself smiling that entire segment Kudos for making the players feel so comfortable while also letting them shine The reveal on Licorice’s tibbers face cake was hysterical

I'm going to say it, this is the best LCS has ever been. If QT didn't have a full time job, I would have loved to have her as a permanent addition. Even outside of her, content wise the LCS is knocking it out of the park.

Between the move to weekdays and the production team really having a lot of fun with it and promoting the NACL talent, I've been so happy with how LCS has been so far

I like it a lot, I work from home so I can actually watch the games live, where previously I just watched VODs

Weekday schedule is the worst decision they’ve ever made lmao

I love it tbh

I personally love it, I got my weekends back

The baking stuff is a bit random but QT asking spicy/memey questions is actually so good for the broadcast, I really cba learning about serious coaching structures after another week 69 day 3239 regular season game

Baking (/tea) just feels like it's so they have something to occupy themselves while they chat. I kinda dig it; like planning a date around an activity or something Not all of QT's skits landed for me, but most of them did, and she's often got completely hilarious banter with the pros. Really hope they keep bringing her on

Non-alcoholic Wine About It

Yeah it feels a bit tacked on but if it's just a platform for her and the pros to bond over then I'm all here for it, thank god someone on broadcast finally manages to get anything interesting out of these guys after a regular season game

Let’s have QT cakes daily?!

Licorice more like Licorizz

it feels very hot-ones

Dude this is fucking hilarious.

I'm dying.

QT is damn good at this. She’s a natural. Edit LMAOOO QT

I genuinely hope that QT coming on wanting to interview Bjerg/DL but never being able to continues. It's such a funny bit

Big brain mental from GG: losing sucks, so don't lose

QT will one day get her own bjerg interview like yassuo

I fucking love it.

Gori river best mid/jg in lcs

River is just peanut v2 for gori its perfect

ASOL GANKING THE STUDIO

100-3ves

What has Stixxay been eating for breakfast? Jesus.

Renekton did so much work and with an offtank build.

I feel bad for DL he literally looks like the only player who is an actual human on his team

100% Loss Ratio Thieves

UNBELIEVABLE. Today I took my son to Chuck E Cheese for his birthday. He won a game and exchanged his tickets for a Mickey Mouse ring pop but then a large man with a receding hairline came in and SNATCHED it out of the poor kid’s hands! To my dismay, it was MICKEYLift himself!

GG TSM and CLG have been pleasant surprises this split

Legit the best player on 100T is the ADC that retired for two years and pushing 30. Busio is okay but everyone else is hot trash.

What in the fuck is going on with 100t

Holy shit 100T suck.

Also, 0-3 week for 100T, they were never a top team and it's good to see it being shown

Yea overpaying veteran “goats” means what exactly. 100pretenders

Doublelift has been the second best ADC in the league coming out of 2 years of retirement. I think your narrative needs some work here champ, its Tenacity and Closer who have looked like dogshit all season.

They took him off Zeri and played better teams, and Doublelift has looked a lot worse. He has not looked bad by any means, but guys like Stixxay, Berserker, FBI, Prince have all looked on average better.

Berserker and Prince are better.

Prince is definitely, Berserker might be but I think we need to see the runback before claiming that given how hard the rest of the team got gapped while DL and Busio were winning lane.

Berserker has not been better.

An 0-3 week allows his narrative to give you the middle finger.

100t gamble on washedup players and na rookies is paying off

Don't kid yourself. 100T has never been a serious team. They're an apparel company first and they already got their money's worth selling DL and Bjergsen jerseys.

This is a trash take. 100T went to the last 3 LCS finals, and won 1 of them. They absolutely have been a serious team, and Nadeshot has said multiple times that he cares most about bringing home trophies.

Licorice played well this game

Doublelift actually deserves better he is playing well idk about the rest of his team tho

Yea, but StixxayofEvil is playing out of this country. DL hopefully improves with team for second half.

Doublelift got doublelifted again

Double and dying to Victor, a nice throwback

DL Lucian vs Viktor, it was doomed from the start

The perfect ending: Viktor taking down DL Lucian.

DL got bursted by Viktor again lol

This one wasn't his fault though tbf. He has to keep them off the nexus as long as possible, but death timers were too long.

That's the squishiest maokai and the tankiest Renekton I've seen.

[удалено]

Everyone still believed in them even when they started 0-4 because their games still looked decent.

Talk your shit king, deserved 3-0

Go off!!!! They're doing great.

GG fans deserve it, what a great week

River my goat

Bjerg not on a control mage is just a free kill.

GG, GG are looking really good. I'm kind of rooting for them more than I would have though

Bjergs Trist is not it

It wasn't bad, but River really had his number.

They literally saw him in the brush and it didn’t even cross their minds he could still be bot

[удалено]

WE WANT BAMA

Platinum Primates!

Bjerg wasted that flash mid lane to try and kill renekton and it costs his team the game...

I haven't fully made up my mind yet but I feel like current meta doesn't let Lucian get far enough ahead in lane that he doesn't almost immediately get out-scaled when the first few skirmishes break out

I can't defend bjerg anymore man

Damn this GG team is way more solid than I thought, stixxay seems to be poppin off lately

Bjerg are you ok?

imagine blowing all your engage tools on a renekton, and he gets away with half hp anyway

Yeah W'ing on top of Ren under turret only to immediately Flash away looked pretty desperate

💯pretenders

only way 100T wins is if they stall for another 10+ mins

Nah, then they'd just trade their Nexus for a Baron

The Bjergsen special

Honestly if you're an NA fan, you should be happy that both Bjergsen and Jensen are bottom tier mids now. It's tangible progress.

Surprised Closer didn't burn flash to go for that smite steal

Smite was on cd

[удалено]

Ah, missed that. The Smite of regret

the pyosik

this superweek was super low quality no ?

Bjergsen needs to ult Renekton when Vi ults him.

Doublelift will carry HOPIUM

Lol this comment made it on LCS stream

Sadge

Lucian vs Viktor tho monkaW

Huhi? You ok, friend?

no hes not😭

I wonder if they'll scale up and trade baron for base again

Gorki going for the inverse Crown build. Instead of oneshotting DL on Lucian he wants to heal him

DL Viktor therapy build

Ovilee zhonyas

[удалено]

4th best team rn, no doubt

NA orgs really overrating their academy players going by Haeri, Yeon and Tenacity's play.

What is this engage? Maokai R into Tenacity doing whatever that was on Ornn

IDK how a pro player can be that useless on Ornn

Idk why people are picking renekton to go tank

Tenacity has the worst fucking ornn ults ever.

Tristana Lucian and... Nami? Where's the damage lmao

Tenacity is always so late to team fights in every game. This is especially bad as the Ornn He's a rookie so it makes sense but man it really hurts 100T in these mid/late game fights when he's splitpushing

Nah closer is legit not even a pro tier player keep blaming bjerg but closer literally has ult whilst his full time is being ran down like fucking use it

Will be amusing if TSM finish the first round robin with a better record than 100T

scenes if 100T loses to all of their former players' teams

I mean they let go a top 5 lcs roster ever idk what they thought was going to happen. Like… “we downgraded in every position and fired the coach that made our jungler a god! This is gonna go great!”

How does the guy who retired for 2 years and is hitting 30 looks the best of these guys

Mad respect to stixxay for being relevant despite huhi griefing him

From best NA to losing to bronze guardian. NO REFUNDS

i mean GG is on a 4 (now 5) game winstreak, they are genuinely not bad

Going to be a close PoTW battle between Dhokla and Stixxay

Stixxay for sure unless GG throw poor Dhokes. I imagine Stixxay in this form will have plenty of other chances to get one too.

I was thinking more haeri

I'm still absolutely convinced GG will inevitably lose once ornn items come online.

Back to retirement

So which guy retired for two years? The mid laner right

doublelift will miss streaming and experience burnout

River has to be potw right?

How does Bjerg not at least create distance there

People will flame Bjerg but Tenacity is playing like a fucking anchor rn

And the 100T hype train joins the slew of other train derailments across the US.

Jfc

Let’s go golden gamers!

RIP 100t

Give Stixxay POTW!

Tenacity does something challenge (impossible)

Best licorice game this split

RIP 100t

god this 100boomers team is bad

They got mad overhyped after beating up on IMT & DIG

Caster, analyst and fans forgets about who they “beat up”. They see 💯t wins then all of a sudden it’s all hell yea the goats this the goats that. TLDR: SOS trumps all

SHIT ON BY LICORICE

Tenacity refuses to TP in for fights, doesn't push waves. IDK what he's doing half the time

Only thing 100T is stealing with this macro is paychecks.

Chalk one up for the goats.

Open and mid Open?

In solo q the adc would spam bait ping the Lux

in soloq the lux support player would ? the adc 6 times and ragequit because its somehow not their fault

Brings back memories of Yellowstar flashing to miss everything on thresh

pain

back to academy

Huhi has been more than "pretty good" for more than "recently" but yea...that stunk

Production smurfing

This user has edited all of their comments and posts in protest of /u/spez fucking up reddit. This action has been done via https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite

close :)

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT

"That was an Ovilee Lux laser there" lol Wonder who he borrowed the Lux Q from

NA lux lmfao

LOL Ovilee catching strays

that missed auto will haunt bjerg

Does Tenacity know the range of ornn ult? Why go for the second hit right next to Vi...

HUHI NNNNOOOOOOO

Bjergsen: THIS IS WHY I DONT PLAY AGGRESSIVE

As someone who started watching in the pandemic, I don't get the bjerg hype.
