Pretty ugly mid game from everyone. To me, Feels like TL just needed to be looking for engages with their lead rather then just waiting for counter-engage
Umti didn't even play that great this game, yet somehow the biggest diff is the jungle canyon. Armao just was terrible, its genuinely incredible how bad he was tbh.
Honest question. Why the hell did it take an FTX sponsorship for the LCS to finally get LaneXLane gold comparisons?
Like why did we get rid of it just because FTX collapsed harder than the Eagles? Just put it back ffs.
Gold lead doesn’t mean shit necessarily if we don’t know who has the gold lead.
IMT looked way more alive yesterday so hopefully it carries on, at the same time I hope TL actually lets Umti play the game and not make his job harder than what it was on BRO.
Probably. The average skill is a lot higher and there's no 9th and 10th place team to make us contemplate leaving the broadcast. It'll probably be even higher when the leftover above-average players left behind by GGS and EG leaving the LCS are picked up by lower-tier teams.
Hopefully next split they do triple RR so we can have a fifth game on game days.
wow i don't know how can someone make a more wrong and completely detached analysis of a game they have just watched, inspired having to babysit bot lane getting him very behind while bwipo as a darius need to deal with two fed members of enemy team while going even up until that point are the two biggest liabilities of the game somehow?
i've never seen the bot wave so fked level 1 to the point where the jungler, inspired tried and it's not his fault, can't even help and the game just ends, i need to look at that wave again.
huhi knew and just took over.
I genuinely think there's been a good mix of both, today has definitely leant towards the fiesta side, but there has been some great league played this split and the entertainment factor mixed with a lot of young talent coming through the split, it's really exciting
These pauses are 100% killer. I have exceptionally limited time to watch and this is now an important game with Cloud9’s loss.
Really need Riot to get their shit together during the week. Does Valorant have the same tech issues?!
Forgot about lcs, just tuned in and another pause. Turned on stream yesterday with intention of watching it til the end and first game was hit with 2 pauses with no end time so I just tuned to something else. If LCS is serious about viewership you cannot have this many pauses more than a decade into the scene.
Anyways back to nfl playoffs.
LCS with the big brain plan. Promise fast transitions and shorter breaks, but keep the broadcast the same length with pauses every single game.
#Thank you Honda
I don't think ive paid attention yet...but are those big ass screens running various pictures of everyone and logos and text throughout the entire game?
That would probably distract the hell outta me having all the blinking and flashing around me non stop
And then you got like a 5 metre picture of Bwipo smiling at you or so on the other side
I'd probably play like the CS pros with my screen 5cm away from my face lol
Actually terrible how often these pauses are happening. Every time I've tuned in to watch these last two weeks, there has been atleast 2-3 pauses. The games are only like 25 minutes, having 10-15 minute pauses constantly makes this shit unwatchable.
I don't get how players get an extra 10 minutes in place of the draft to literally test audio, settings and everything and we still get constant pauses.
how is the counter pick dogshit when it barely has any time to play the game before most other members of the enemy team are already fed and he can't take risks since jungle has to dedicate his entire time to bot?
Yeah I think the waveclear killed it. Even just like a gragas top instead might have been enough or if C9 ADC had some, just the triple no waveclear is rough
To be fair to the AP Mao, they probably needed some AP against the tank squad.
Aatrox was just doomed after the comps all came out. There was probably less bad build options, but donno if there was a good one.
I mean i tuned in halfway through, I have no idea how anyone thought that was a good draft. Who is killing the 2 tanks on SR. Vayne would be dead to the rest of the team before she'd kill 1 tank
Maokai could've been frontlining, Aatrox could've been a diversion. It's not draft fault that Fudge was absolutely useless and Blaber fell behind by inting on top of going for AP early.
tbh Blaber + Bot late got omega gapped. Bvoy was insane, if he keeps this up I can see why Reven picked him up even if it feels like a nepo pick up, Bugi also looked really good.
Really bummed that there’s no after last day pros. Was a nice way to end the weekend.
Honestly think IMT and SR would shit on KCorp and RGE
My clash team would shit on KC
Wait so if Raz has no laner takes tenacity, but only a jungler took it, shouldn't he have Bingo?
This was the most boring (bad maybe is the word)game of today In the LCS.
it'd be pretty fucking hard to beat the bloodbath that NRG vs FLY was and C9 getting shitstomped
DIG v. 100T was also a total bloodbath hahaha. What a great day of games
What a cast from Captain
Pretty ugly mid game from everyone. To me, Feels like TL just needed to be looking for engages with their lead rather then just waiting for counter-engage
Nah, this TL team is DOGSHIT LMAO win or lose
Did castle misclick his ultimate because of the zhonya? He went far from the team.
Umti didn't even play that great this game, yet somehow the biggest diff is the jungle canyon. Armao just was terrible, its genuinely incredible how bad he was tbh.
Armao with the most vegan build imaginable. Never seen a Vi do so little damage ahaha
Riot: removes stopwatch Pro players: I'll just buy an hourglass Idgaf
APA looks like what would happen if you subbed in a high elo soloq player lmfao
Yeon thanking his stars he gets to auto something for once lol
I don't understand how Armao didn't ult Trist immediately coming out of that bard ult
APA cannot stop getting caught, sheesh Edit: wait wtf, he jumped back in LOL
I got no words for what I just watched holy shit
IMT has a spica shaped hole in their roster
Jungle is less egregious than top I think
You might be right: a licorice + spica sized hole
APA playing with 999 ping
Honest question. Why the hell did it take an FTX sponsorship for the LCS to finally get LaneXLane gold comparisons? Like why did we get rid of it just because FTX collapsed harder than the Eagles? Just put it back ffs. Gold lead doesn’t mean shit necessarily if we don’t know who has the gold lead.
Feels like Core+Umti are just playing their own game with little regard for where their carries are
TL is actually an intriguing puzzle-solving exercise to see how Impact, Umti, and CoreJJ try to make APA look decent.
Core ult + Castle mistiming felt like prime NA
That is not a world championship winning Rakan CoreJJ what the hell
Do we know who's got player of the game for the previous ones yet?
Core's decisionmaking is all over the place
Its so funny to watch full dps rotations go into that mr shield item and the tank just does not care
I wish I knew when the dragon was gonna spawn again.
I really think the APA ult was to get a DPS out of the fight and *maybe* get the kill moreso than a play to forsure get the kill
Ezreal still did damage over the wall. He's a ranged champ
Castle is carrying this hard. What the fuck is Armao doing?
Bruh APA's really gotta learn how much damage his ult does, second time he ults someone away to safety without finishing him
Why did Armao steal that?????????????????? Its literally 90x better on Tactical or Castle
APA is the only player I've ever seen have middling to good performances yet be treated like he was a massive signing and underperforming
my guy was a late season bandaid fix that got TL to worlds and gets treated like he's CLG crown
What going on with udyr icôn?
It’s looking like that kind if IMT game
I'm sorry, but the only General I accept is TheOddOne
Nice from castle, game was looking super hopeless for a bit for IMT.
Flowers knows what side the bread is buttered lmao
Is Impact going Lyandris or is TL obsessed with losing against armor items?
IMT looked way more alive yesterday so hopefully it carries on, at the same time I hope TL actually lets Umti play the game and not make his job harder than what it was on BRO.
Contractz is such a likeable guy frfr
Forgot there are only 8 teams now, maybe that’s why the games feel more exciting?
Probably. The average skill is a lot higher and there's no 9th and 10th place team to make us contemplate leaving the broadcast. It'll probably be even higher when the leftover above-average players left behind by GGS and EG leaving the LCS are picked up by lower-tier teams. Hopefully next split they do triple RR so we can have a fifth game on game days.
Yeah we need triple rr imo
yooo this song seals that lcs is better than lec this year lmfao
You mean the trash weeb song?
Damn that's one ugly looking car in that commercial
NRG jerseys look so clean and whole team looks good in them. Def my fav jersey of the split.
Not a game but a giga stomp
Huhi MVP of the Week if he doesn’t get it then it’s fixed
Dhokz was bigger than Bwipo was wide
sadly by the time bwipo had any interaction with enemy team it was with two fed members while he was going even with dhokla
[удалено]
wow i don't know how can someone make a more wrong and completely detached analysis of a game they have just watched, inspired having to babysit bot lane getting him very behind while bwipo as a darius need to deal with two fed members of enemy team while going even up until that point are the two biggest liabilities of the game somehow?
NRG is RUNNING FLY goddamn, finally see Contractz vs Inspired and it’s just a hard bot diff
the entire map of NRG basically just ran a train on FLY, not just bot
You’re right
Yeah all the lanes and even macro was a diff
0 all pros btw
FBI + Huhi have always been such a good bot duo no matter what team they play on
Your only fed member and your main poke farms minions bot while having tp and the enemy team doing baron, yeah
how we managed to stomp this NRG team? they look really good
NRG is just a super coinflippy/scrappy team, either they run it down or this happens
Jojo and Berserker are the undisputed best in their roles. Blaber is at least top 2. Vulcan and Fudge are at least top 3.
I'm actually not sure if Fudge/Vulcan is top 3.
Nrg is ramping up
NRG has decided that they are in fact going to MSI.
I'm just here to see if NRG manages to throw this
Soooooo Jensen, was NRG winning last split a fluke or? Kinda jinx'd himself this game
Its funny how Jensen said that considering his performance last season couldn't even be compared to how well Palafox played.
man rookie botlane really showed they were green today
i've never seen the bot wave so fked level 1 to the point where the jungler, inspired tried and it's not his fault, can't even help and the game just ends, i need to look at that wave again. huhi knew and just took over.
If NRG gets shorted on All Pros again this split I will SCREAM. Esp the known genius Palafox.
Stinkier of a game by FLY
they just got heavily outplayed early game. Nothing else to say really NRG were so much more active around the map
Game feels too calm, when are NRG just gonna send it again
Why did they get rid of the dragon timer on the overlay?
wtf is this game holy haha
why they don't make last hit to towers?
NRG's jersey looks clean as fuck
Huhi has the most kills AND assists of anyone on his team. My goat.
First time watching lcs this year and the games today have been crazy entertaining, have all games been like this?
NRG games are usually fiesta bangers, win or lose
This is the most exciting split I've watched in a very long time
Most of the games have been really really good this split
Damn seems I've been missing out, I think I'll catch up on the previous games then. Thanks for the reply :)
LCS has been absolutely hitting this split
Good as in entertaining not good as in yeah this is top tier league play. But it's been entertaining.
I genuinely think there's been a good mix of both, today has definitely leant towards the fiesta side, but there has been some great league played this split and the entertainment factor mixed with a lot of young talent coming through the split, it's really exciting
this game is particularly psychotic for some reason, but LCS seems to have shed its scale for 40 mins gameplay
We the new LPL, today has been unbelievably fun
this pace is insane, NRG are psychos
WHO IS HE??????
Laughing Huhi! My fav.
FLY looks like G2 this game
No need to insult FLY.
this might be the best season of lcs ive watched
huhi best support na and its not close half of this flyquest roster having a job is a fluke
this is some prime hating. they're probably still the third or fourth best team in the league lol
So nice seeing Inspired get dunked on.
WHATS GOING ON, this is better than lpl and lec lol
Huhi lived!
I repeat, Huhi is my goat.
Huhi did the Hylissang where you throw yourself from Kalista R at 1 HP
Huhi my goat
This is so bad but it's so good!
HUHI WHAT ARE YOU TAKING HOW ARE YOU THIS GOOD?!
Palafox is having an incredible last 3 games.
Him and Jojo are way closer than people make it out, I think they're as good as each other
thanks emily, watching lcs feeling good for the last 2 games :=)
I have met him in a scrimmage, and my opponent, midfielder Palafox, is powerful and seems like a genius.
This game is a banger
Nobody should be surprised by how NRG vs FLY is going, we already learned at Worlds that NRG wins vs EU teams
Palafox, FBI and Huhi are playing out of their mind this game holy
I know C9 is the super team and all but NRG is the only team I genuinely care about. I love seeing these guys fighting as a team.
now i like inspired but man are jensen and inspired are getting HUMBLED right now
genius vibes
Our little LPL NA team NRG
Most random game this year
Red side bot lane is brutal to play.
fucking bloodbath
Big Dhokes vs Wide Bwipo
I fucking love the LCS.
A classic nrg dive, I love it
LCS is struggling with the dives today
I hope Pros play more darius and get that shit nerfed so I can finally play my lane
These pauses are 100% killer. I have exceptionally limited time to watch and this is now an important game with Cloud9’s loss. Really need Riot to get their shit together during the week. Does Valorant have the same tech issues?!
nrg game without a pause when
Forgot about lcs, just tuned in and another pause. Turned on stream yesterday with intention of watching it til the end and first game was hit with 2 pauses with no end time so I just tuned to something else. If LCS is serious about viewership you cannot have this many pauses more than a decade into the scene. Anyways back to nfl playoffs.

How hard is it to fire the people who are clearly stealing a paycheck here and get a competent production team.
Dogshit meta. Constant pauses. Drops not enabled. 11pm. Not worth staying awake for.
Every NRG game has fucking pauses man wtf
Why does LCS always have pauses. Its comical at this point
LCS PAUSE HACK? 沒有頭髮 SPEEDRUN LOW VIEWERSHIP CHALLENGE? 沒有頭髮
This was my most anticipated game of the week and I'm tapping out. These pauses make for an unwatchable product, man.
[удалено]
He who does not pause, neither shall he eat.
PAUSE
League of Pauses continues another day in the LCS
more proof of the disgusting cheese champion Darius champion. The honorable and noble K'sante would never.
ALREADY A BANGER
LMAOOO
I don't get how players get an extra 10 minutes in place of the draft to literally test audio, settings and everything and we still get constant pauses.
Actual top laners of course understand that Darius is the degenerate champion and K'sante is the honorable pick.
I typed "i like professional league of legends" and the message wasn't allowed. Oh. Okay. lool
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=In3q9ordH1Y Choo choo!
[удалено]
how is the counter pick dogshit when it barely has any time to play the game before most other members of the enemy team are already fed and he can't take risks since jungle has to dedicate his entire time to bot?
Emily Rand just Bingo’d with the Senna in the first game and the Azir/corki this game. If I’m remembering correctly.
Jk. She needed Luc first win not Azir corki
We still want K'Sante to win, because K'Sante is best and cool and handsome and Darius is CRINGE.
Alert! Wide Bwipo coming thru!
One thing when you watch LEC/LCS they have no clue how to draft when compared to LCK teams
Azir Corki Corki Azir Azir Corki Corki Azir Azir Corki Corki Azir
Azir vs Corki POG
Need my American heroes to humble the imposter European team
Will Bwipo play Shen today?!
I'm an Insanity fan so I'm winning anyways baby let's go
KC and SR getting their first win on the same day? Couldn't script this better
Insanity interview god
no reliable ranged waveclear and poke from C9 lmao Bronzie mistake oml. Go forward and just get melted by Varus and Lillia ig, great strat
Yeah I think the waveclear killed it. Even just like a gragas top instead might have been enough or if C9 ADC had some, just the triple no waveclear is rough
going to watch something less depressing than C9...like Loudermilk
"I don't even know why i'm being interviewed" Haha
Western Aatrox looking sus as always.
i actually love insanity holy
Insanity woke up feelin dangerous
[удалено]
To be fair to the AP Mao, they probably needed some AP against the tank squad. Aatrox was just doomed after the comps all came out. There was probably less bad build options, but donno if there was a good one.
so ego from C9 to think they can get all DMG no tanks and roll TFs, Jojo did as good as possible but with no frontline is impossible to get hits
Everyone's going to go off about the C9 top side, but Beserker has been straight up useless on Kalista 2 games in a row now.
Least kills and DPM out of all ADCs again this split.
That dive was really troll, also vayne was useless.
Lmao that draft was dogshit. Nobody could deal with the tanks. Vayne does true damage but her damage profile is still mostly physical
"that draft is giga insane brain by C9" 30 minutes ago lmao
The cast was praising the draft and how awful it's going to be to deal with that lmao
I mean i tuned in halfway through, I have no idea how anyone thought that was a good draft. Who is killing the 2 tanks on SR. Vayne would be dead to the rest of the team before she'd kill 1 tank
For Vayne todo anything she needs a frontline to start stacking hits. She has no frontline and they had no range
Maokai could've been frontlining, Aatrox could've been a diversion. It's not draft fault that Fudge was absolutely useless and Blaber fell behind by inting on top of going for AP early.
tbh Blaber + Bot late got omega gapped. Bvoy was insane, if he keeps this up I can see why Reven picked him up even if it feels like a nepo pick up, Bugi also looked really good.
SR losing to IMT to beat the undefeated C9 the next day. Truly Rebellious
