Imagine trying to run the lec right now. I would have no idea what to do with only one watchable team in my league, and I would probably try to invent some type of magical format where g2 just played themselves over and over again and none of the other teams got any matches

[@SSulttaani]

Dom and Yamato watch LEC every week together. Of course they will agree on more stuff if you have long discussions about things you will end up coming to a logical resolution when both of them are able to be swayed with solid arguments. That's why I like this show with Monte since they haven't "shared notes" before and this show is where they have the discussions for the first time.

This is true but I think after this split both of them will stop streaming the LEC

[@brittanyk9272]

lol T1 isn’t failing. I mean I get we are using T1 for clickbait but still. It’s funny that Dom is insulting Faker, I mean I guess since his career was bad he’s made a living on insulting Faker. Ya Faker isn’t having the best split but I truly don’t beleive Dom has any right to trash him. T1 is just T1ing. They’ll be fine and bounce back. I’m truly happy with Monte’s Take. It wasn’t negative, he made valid points and he wasn’t bias to either T1 or HLE. It was a great take.

[@georgeide2337]

Monte not biased? 😂 Love the guy, but that's a clown take if I ever heard it. Dom wasn't insulting Faker at all; he was insulting his play in the Trist/Corki matchup, which is factually true. And if Dom, a former pro, can't comment on Faker's bad performances, then literally no one in the community can because no one has the same pedigree as him. I don't understand the mindset of someone making a comment this bad.

[@shk526]

그래 컨텐츠에 티원이 있어야 주목받기쉽지...

[@chrissears5482]

Im confused. Dom likes it when T1 is bad, so if they are just a bad team why would he want them to disband, shouldn't he want them to just stay together and be a bad team? Although to be fair he said they should disband last summer too, and at Worlds we saw why

[@krismacapaz609]

He is hate chasing. Lpl can't match Faker's legacy and narative and wants him to stop before he becomes more untouchable. Kinda like crab mentality

[@BlackDeathBlade]

It's quite amazing how much Dom insists on how EWC doesn't matter and still think BLG is the best team in the LPL so soon. Maybe he's right, but LPL are still the hardest major region to predict results. Yes, GenG is still easily the best team in the LCK, but having a bad meta read isn't new to GenG. Worlds 2023 was practically lost for them because their meta read was trash. It also didn't help that they faced the same opponents in both MSI and Worlds that year so lol. If EWC didn't matter, then LCK wouldn't cite the tournament in their previews. Hell, it looks like GenG's loss in EWC lit a fire in them and now they're even more determined to be the scariest team LCK has ever produced. I do want to see if GenG can go the distance, but it does get boring if every game is them just winning by outmacroing their opponents and then win a crucial fight to snowball their advantage to end the game.

[@krismacapaz609]

Just like when T1 is dominating. Kinda happy to see that LCK isn't a 1 team region like some others. GenG and T1 are good rivals since only diamonds can sharpen diamonds. I hope another tean will reach their status soon so it'll be more exciting

[@MrDespisedIcon]

GenG really out here proving to us all, there is no use to develop talent in league since you can pay2win your team to a golden road! Why develop any talent with your challenger or academy team when you can buy all the top talent from other teams? After lying to your fans claiming your organization is broke in order to guilt them into buying more overpriced merchandise to support the team during these difficult times. What an achievement by the same team owner who said his team was broke 6 months ago and who proved he has no balls when his team walked back on their statement about Taiwan 🤡😂

[@MrDespisedIcon]

@@Flor-um1zu yeah, the most replaceable and arguably worst player on the team? Not just my words, even Monte has mentioned this plenty of times on the show.

[@alexanderjordan3414]

Yeah but dude, spoiler, nearly every top team in the history of esports bought all of the top players, this cinderella concept of building a team from scratch almost never happens, are we gonna act like last year's JDG wasnt the same exact thing? All of the top LPL teams in the past years were also backed by mega rich guys, IG 2018 owned by Wang Sicong, FPX owned by a game developer. T1 has had super teams for the last few years, but now another team does it that isnt T1 or a chinese heir and you're mad. Also, the gen.g owner is also invested in crypto and a bunch of other stuff, sure he has the money to buy top players, but gen.g as an org is not profitable is the point, and neither is nearly any esports org outside the top 1%, theyre almost all passion projects financed by rich guys who use their money earned in other things to finance an esports team, it's not a profitable industry by and large. Real sports same shit, welcome to capitalism lol

[@mentalcow]

I generally am fine with teams like t1 identifying the meta is weak for them and trying to find other ways to win the real issue is when u try to slam meta and cant do it, like during those roaming top months, you had teams who realized that wouldnt work for them and tried to play someone who can use the free lane, I like that stuff but if T1 is going to keep trying this half and half thing of like we want to avoid it but will still do it badly sometimes then they probably wont recover until the meta shifts.

It's already destined that T1 will struggle due to the lethality changes and crit buffs since AD mids/tops will be viable. You can't trust Zeus on it except when he plays Vayne or Zeri (still not trusty on Zeri because he follows his intrusive thoughts to go ham flash in and nuc 6 champs including himself)
