Are You Smarter Than an LCS Analyst? ft. TSM

[@CLNCJD94]

No seriously we want more of this, the LCS has been killing it with production this year.

[@VaMage]

Ironic, as most LCS viewers were crying that the league will die without Dash. Glad they got proved to be delusional.

[@CLNCJD94]

@@VaMage don’t get me wrong, I miss Dash a ton, it feels as though upper management has stepped back and allowed the on air personalities more control.

[@BlijfEric]

​@@VaMage you're making a huge fallacy. One variable doesn't exclude the other. Novel content without Dash doesn't definitely mean that it would be bad wíth him. It's a stronger argument to make that this new format of content works better for American viewers, regardless of his presence/absence.

[@VaMage]

@@BlijfEric You're making a huge text comprehension fallacy. I am not blaming Dash, I am addressing LCS fans that were heavily whining before the start of the season.

[@jamesclark5905]

@@VaMage They have stepped up without Dash. But he would have made it even better, and the way riot done Dash dirty is fucking disgusting.

[@LadyMouzon]

This was actually so so funny! This should be a regular segment with each of the teams!!!

[@shekcmh]

Turtle like a true pro, I can feel the stats

[@Syndra-lq1zs]

i god damn hope you got most teams for this, it is dope.

[@Shiradrenaline]

This segment is incredible. I'd watch a billion of these.

[@kevindunn1658]

True

[@afriendofjamis]

Jatt calling MarkZ helping the losing team "Catch-up XP" had me rolling lmfao

[@numiiigoesrawrz]

i thought nothing would top "catching up with doublelift" but god this is even better. PLEASE make this a regular segment this was hilarious

[@Infernoswac]

This is actually incredible and the perfect way to show off personalities of both LCS staff and Players

[@Meloview]

This is SO GOOD. More please!

[@Rko453]

Love incorporating facts about the game. Fun and interesting

[@SushiSamuraiXDDD]

I was actually smiling thru the whole thing, rly fun show here. Hope to see more with different teams!

[@mizoch]

RIght, LCS is killing it this year. Hopefully they keep it up!

[@charlesoshiro5871]

Goddamn this was so good. The casters and TSM players really made it a lot of fun to watch. Hope for more of this series with other teams.

[@claysully6592]

Dude I absolutely loved this please do more

[@Hunter42069]

I genuinely enjoyed watching this. LCS productions been built different this year 🔥

[@PositionTheory]

This is actually some of the best content I’ve seen from the LCS in a long time. We need more of this!

[@VirtulentLP]

solos final appearance. he'll be haunted by this video

[@jeffcarpenter4086]

He’ll be Hauntzered by this video*

[@VirtulentLP]

@@jeffcarpenter4086 it was implied. less funny when you just say hauntzered

[@ClubNicholas]

​@@jeffcarpenter4086 good one 😂

[@briandonegan8054]

This was my favorite segment the lcs has put out this year, no joke. Not over the top but tons of laughs and genuine interactions with pros. Keep it up

[@SK-df1iw]

For anyone that cares, this is the math for the last question. Ez's base AD at lvl 8 is 74.44 Ez's bonus AD is 15 (hb axe) + 9 * 0.6 (adaptive force rune) = 20.4 Ez's total AD is then 94.84 Ez Q at rank 4 does 95 base + 130% AD = 95 + 94.84 (1.3) = 218.292 Sheen does 100% base AD so it does 74.44 Ez's Q + sheen proc does 292.732 pre-mitigation dmg Since Ez Q does physical dmg, we need to look at Maokai's armor stat Maokai base armor at lvl 9 is 74.05 Maokai bonus armor is 6 (armor rune) Maokai total armor is then 80.05 Post mitigation physical dmg = pre-mitigation dmg * 100/(AR + 100) Substituting those values in gives: 292.732 * 100/(80.05 + 100) = 162.584 Maokai's bone plating at lvl 9 reduces dmg by 44.12 162.584 - 44.12 = 118.46

[@NotAUtubeCeleb]

This is my favorite segment of the year!

[@Serephinaify]

That was stupid fun. I love segments like this, do more of this!

[@ovs4744]

The last question is actually wrong because the picture they got was sr but on the howling abys map the champions have different buffs/nerfs to their damage

[@garrettcaskey8098]

This is the best segment LCS has done this year! Hopefully we see more. Can't wait to attend worlds in Raleigh!

[@robertfazekas7394]

THIS. WAS. GOLD. More please!!

[@rhorantyko7796]

The best part about this was how disorganized it was. Keep this vibe please lol

[@MrGetownedLP]

Content just keeps ramping up my lorddd

[@TodayontheKoreanServer]

loved the video! Make this a series!

[@katisdreaming]

i genuinely love the direction the LCS is going this year, finally loving this as much (if not more) than lec content!!

[@Navra11]

Loved this ! Definitely would love to see other teams too or other lcs variations on game shows

[@ConnorMorgans]

Loved this! 100% need to see more of this!

[@MrIndman]

Such a simple but fun idea! Loving the revamped LCS!

[@stevenmeister2168]

this was great, keep this one up

[@kur0shi]

on-air talent + pros is a really good method for basically printing "hand-held" brand-making. A lot of pros are often somewhat uncomfortable on camera, but this gives the LCS team that chance to smooth that over - much like the interviews do. More of this!!!

[@zaygaming4]

I love this, please do more!

[@Josarifire18]

This needs to be a permanent segment in the LCS

[@WhaleMilkTea]

I have been absolutely loving LCS this year! Glad to have stuck around all this time because it has been worth it to me ❤

[@BankaiPwn]

More of this! Was a really fun watch

[@alvinjohnsp2156]

hope this become a regular segment, this is so good lol

[@tsturkie]

This was a lot of fun! I hope LCS continues to make great content like this that showcases weird game knowledge and player personalities in a fun way. But... you gotta give it some stakes of some kind. Get everyone's skin in the game.

[@rangertheodore9609]

Fantastic!! Please do more!

[@Teldaru]

I've loved every segment this split. Great job onamping up the creativity this split team

[@baguette7523]

[@thomaslonowski8007]

This was gold content! Would love to see more of this

[@pedropalma4338]

Really cool piece. Bring more of these, please!

[@Gabriel64468]

I was confused why the BP would be active in the last question, but I just checked and it does appear to be active immediately. Is this a general change or is it specifically because of an ability with another instance of damage attached to it? (My test was Trundle Q, so Auto with a buff attached, similar to here which is a Q with a buff attached). If anyone isn't aware, before the first instance of damage gave you the 3 shields, but none was actually consumed, so it only started doing something when you got hit for a second time.

[@moisesdiaz509]

Please do more this was super awesome to watch!

[@rileyhaase3427]

This was hilarious. Keep it up!!! Let’s see some more of these!!!

[@andrewglanville7906]

Watching since season 3. This is so much more fun than watching a pro explain some game mechanic shit on a screen against their will. People like watching people have fun.

[@mpcbsar]

I'd love to see more of this

[@syctris8742]

More of this please!!

[@Guest_1300]

There was one little mistake in the final question: In the 1v1 test Maokai's bone plating is proc'd, whereas in the screenshot we're given it isn't. Since bone plating doesn't reduce the triggering damage (only the next 3 hits after that), the damage in the test was 45 less than it would have been if his bone plating hadn't yet been triggered. My math got me to 162 damage, which is 44 higher than the answer they gave (and lv9 bone plating reduces damage by 45). Edit: nevermind, sheen counts as a second damage instance and gets reduced by bone plating lol

[@rayxray]

We need this as a regular segment please

[@flame-fl3yy]

This was hella fun to watch! I’d love to see this with different analysts and pros

[@CataclysmicDuck]

This was awesome! Do it again please!

[@puig031]

This was great, more if this please!

[@KhoaNguyen-ty9tw]

The screenshot of 118 damage to Maokai might be wrong since it was taken in ARAM where champions are balanced differently @LCS

[@IGNNotFound]

Maokai's armor would be 74.05 [base armor] + 6 [armor rune shard] = 80.05 and his boneplating would tank 44.12. Ezreal's Q unmitigated would do 95 [lvl 4] + 1.3*(74.44 [base ad] + 15[axe] + 5.4[adaptive force rune shard]) + 74.44[sheen] = 95 + 123.292 + 74.44 = 292.732. Final damage calc would be 292.732(100/180.05) - 44.12 ≈ 118.46

[@prownagedude]

@@IGNNotFound actually incorrect, yes bone plating reduction occurs after resistances, but each plating proc affects separate damage instances, in this case the sheen proc sheen damage post mitigation here would 74.44/1.8005≈41.3555, less than the total bone plating reduction of 44.12, in which case the the damage instance is just nullified and not further reduced, you see this a lot with stuff like first strike, aery and scorch.

[@IGNNotFound]

@@prownagedude Isn't it different for stuff like Aery, First Strike, and Scorch because those are actually separate damage instances? For something like a sheen proc which is simultaneous there wouldn't really be a reason why bone plating wouldn't instead block the larger damage damage component which in this instance would be the Q damage without the proc (95 + 123.292)/1.8005.

[@Charliejr22]

Probably the best segment Ive ever seen LCS do
