$15 MILLION DOLLARS FOR WINNING WORLDS? | Doublelift Trash Talk Episode 8

[@fractal8346]

Steve: Eloquent reasoning and well put together sentences about team sponsorships. DL: “That is fucking OP”

[@allainangcao28]

The correct way to complement your former boss. 🤣

[@EclipsaMyrtenaster]

I love how Carlos takes every opportunity to trash talk, Steve is being the smart kid who gives a different answer but still aligns with what Carlos is saying and Joe's just there, nodding his head and sneaking a couple of smack jesus christ what an episode Also, Joe Marsh does actually look like Mark Cuban if he was older wtf

[@tatooine_dream]

Best pod so far. Only thing that stood out to me as a negative was Carlos's language honestly. 'owning costumers' was verbatim language used... Talking about owning fans and putting them on a subscription model to farm money, was what his framed as his goal. In no uncertain terms. I mean... its fucking grim.

Okay but this is huge, as someone who is really invested in the lol esports scene there ain't really that many podcasts or content in general specially quality content to consume, so for someone to bring on one of those guys is something, but all three of them ? in one podcast ? that's a banger before i even click the video, hats of to you DL we need more of those.

I agree but i think BasedJoe is overrated relative to Carlos and Steve, they built their orgs from the ground, Joe just got a job.

[@nathantomaneng7259]

What I would pay to see Carlos be T1's CEO and just fuck with those deranged korean netizen "fans" LOL. Fuck em, I wanna see them roll over failing to piss Carlos off. He won't get pissed off.

[@THadeTani]

Doublelift has been my favorite LoL player for years, and I love seeing his transition to do even cooler things post-LCS. He managed to bring these three incredible CEOs together for an amazing episode. You can tell that Steve, Carlos, and Joe are all so dedicated and integral to their regions' teams and have an amazing professional and personal rapport with each other. If this was any other sport, it'd be beyond believable to see a recently retired player bring in such interesting and important people in the game. Great job DL (& team/Leena) for making this kind of content that's interesting, but also in a way that makes people more educated and fascinated in the game as something people can really be invested in.

[@MrMiday]

This has been the greatest non-gameplay content you've created by far, very well done Liftlift! Not only did you get the heads of the 3 current most relevant orgs, you covered international content covering the 3 major regions, got them talking off off the cuff, and showed us a glimpse into their actual personalities. 💯💯💯

[@vaqueroliquido7339]

I agree with you, but I cannot let you off the hook for saying NA is a top 3 region above LPL, LMAO

[@vicnovicio]

@@vaqueroliquido7339 I'm always the first to trash NA but you putting words in his mouth. He only said "3 major region." Wether we like it or not, unfortunately, NA is still considered a major region because they got the money. Reading comprehension bro. I understand if English may not be your first language, so respect

[@ironman2k10]

Yes this is what I was trying to articulate in my original comment you got to see them as regular people not CEOs. I appreciated hearing they voices and insight.

[@Dainurian]

Lmao for the first few minutes I found Carlos' abrasive personality a bit off-putting, but once everyone got going he was hilarious. I haven't been a fan of Carlos at some points in the past, but he was an amazing guest here and I will always respect what he's done with G2 and their content.

[@dillonoickle5841]

i think he was just very hyped to be there lol once they found the groove it was alot better.

[@Quang1999]

I used to not like Carlos but he is genuinely a funny person. I was dying laughing at his ice cream truck joke, he is the kind of guy who would 100% do it for the meme.

[@tatooine_dream]

I respect him too and I can see his charm. Things I don't like was 'acquisition'.. 'acquiring' and 'owning costumers' was verbatim language used. Talking about owning fans and putting them on a subscription model to farm money, was what his framed as his goal. In no uncertain terms. I mean... its fucking grim.

[@madara2892]

This episode was insanely good. It was interesting to see how different these three CEOs are but where they agree/think the same as well. They also seem to really fit into their region personality wise XD

[@miles12pega]

On merging the LCS and LEC just bring in the top 4 or 5 teams of each region and put them in a league and then run a lower league with the rest of the teams to reintroduce relegation

[@shockway1]

This is high quality content. Thank you for sitting these 3 amazing CEOs together and allowing us to see them chat and share knowledge bombs. Can't wait for the next episode!

As a League Esports fan going back to Season 3, this was probably one of the most interesting video pieces I've watched. Typically these days I bypass literally all the youtube content for League Esports cause its just personalities talking out their ass, or just an echo chamber of ideas. But this was a really interesting inside to the teams themselves, and actually surprisingly candid too. Great stuff!

[@BlazeEXT]

Wow this a great stream to let "lay" people understand more of the financial and business inside of a E-Sports org. This is super educational and would love to see more content like this in the future.

Regi: Looking at Steve and copying but miss up the questions. Carlos: Mr.DL, Regi is cheating and he sucks at it. Joe: Already graduated, just here to have some fun.

[@DrAmer1can]

I can’t believe the best CEO the one and only, yours truly, some call him the brilliant mind, greatest leader of our time, caring like a mother cradling her newborn baby, gentleman to behold all females with just just a wave of a finger, tender, not a single offsetting characteristic about his mental, mentally stable like the father figure we all need, the man so profound his words age like fine wine, the innovative leader of our society, Reginald could not have made it due to his mandatory shift at Mc Donald’s.

Maybe I'm very unrealistic here, but i feel like a minimum requirement for being a pro player is to know how to play every champ I'm your role. Maybe not perfectly but well enough that you can pull them out on stage. That allows you to play for comp over comfort.
