The Announced Superteams are Insane... / Faker's stream & Crazy Fan - Summoning Insight S7 E47

[@ftu2021]

Monte you are not the only who believes that sheer is underage. The whole LPL fandom is memeing it

[@theanonymouschicken169]

Sheer stated in an interview he was playing league of legends in the 5th grade in 2018 making him 10-11 years old or 16-17 years old in 2024. So.. the December 2005 listed birth year kinda sus.

[@kenneth_romero]

maybe the pr dude told him to say that? who knows. until he's able to play internationally we'll never know. instead of schrodingers cat, we have sheer's age.

[@prestoiidx]

So the rumor with xun is that apparently he was good friends with ig manager and the ig manager basically was trying to get the entire blg roster over on ig but then blg found out and was upset and dumped xun after that. Sucks he was a really good fit for that team and im not sure how much of that ig situation would even be his fault

[@williamvargas2981]

I don't usually buy novelty items but that's a great sell you guys did for the Aura frame. I would actually love for my grandma to have one at her place and upload pictures of the family there. Thank you guys!

Don't have this one specifically but my family recently did the same for our grandma, it is a really good gift.

About the rant at 11:10 though: on a roster lie this I'd much rather see Malrang than Jankos. I don't have faith in this team to be more than borderline playoffs even with Jankos, and at least this way we have a bad team that isn't ruining Jankos' legacy while (presumably) providing some fun matches.

I don’t know why Riot doesn’t lean in to the fans more. Specifically, fans who watch often. Like I watch every domestic split of every major region. I bought the BDS emote & icon. They could just have a section of the shop dedicated to things like that. People like being able to support the teams they route for, and Riot makes money too.

[@kenneth_romero]

2:39:00 i think the anti religious sentiment isn't actually the "how can god let bad things happen", but more to do with religious institutions "brainwashing" people into seeing what is good or bad and forcing people into certain situations. usually whenever i hear people say they're anti religious i usually just assume they're anti establishment/institutions and more individualists. i believe a more apt term for "how can god be bad", or whatever, would be anti-spiritual or anti-god.

[@alvinohlsson5986]

Wierd but ok

[@christopherriordan2057]

One explanation for Xun playing at the end of worlds over Wei could have been as simple as champion pool Xun played Skarner as well if not better than any other jungler at the tournament The champs that are meta decide these tournaments more than the players or teams do

[@podefunder]

Nope. The reasoning for dropping Xun was pretty clear if you follow the LPL news. Xun is close to the IG manager, who tried to poach him this offseason, and use him to poach the other high-profile members of BLG. BLG were understandably upset and just went with the guy who was incredible in Summer and saved their team.

I have watched Zeus, Oner and Guma playing Overcooked 2 and it was hilarious asf. I think the funniest Faker stream I have watched is him playing Lethal Company with his children. Edit: And is Faker the shotcaller or its Keria? I remember Oner saying Keria was their shotcaller in 2022.

[@tarekhaned7225]

From what i've watched about T1 comms, Keria is their "teamfight" shotcaller and Faker is their "macro/objectives" shotcaller 😅

[@tarekhaned7225]

+ it depends on the game itself sometimes it's Guma calling or Zeus/Oner asking about if this or that is "doable" to get Faker approval 😅

[@elizabethmurigi1131]

[@johnkirk1772]

@@tarekhaned7225 if you watch/listen to voice comms it quickly becomes obvious that both of them are - faker's calls and engages have won them the last two worlds in the clutch with Azir and Sylas..before he makes the sylas flash rakan ult play he also calls for Guma's Ashe arrow (misses) - he just sees the play there on the long chase and wants to punish on that turn no matter how, makes it all the more surprising that he wasn't aware flashes were still down, the whole play setup seems to evolve around those cds faker tends to also call for the end vs baron and reset because he has the best estimation of damage and death timers - a lot of tempo trap calls, dives and baron angles are called by Keria

[@Birkarl_]

The most interesting part of Midsommar is where the jumpcuts of the happy blonde swedes dancing for half a second is followed by half seconds of gore/torture/sacrifice/whatever, back and forth. This is a direct copy of the propaganda technique from nazi films where they jumpcut jews and rats. The purpose is to associate the two things and disgust for them together. What Monte said about questioning your culture is the point. Midsommar is an anti-nordic propaganda film.

[@Raidizzy]

We can prop up sheer and acknowledge he was world rookie of the year but we dont need to act like massu wasn't fucking good and didnt deserve a nomination

[@FitzgeraldStanburyWeissV]

Yeah, he definitely deserves it. He was really good.

[@ScoutlolLPL]

Idk but was xiahou really that good? Id even argue his best time was as a top laner. Certainly dont think he is better than knight all time.

[@kissblade8587]

Even the Koreans know he's a demon in spring seasons. His MSI record is certainly bonkers.

[@podefunder]

He’s won 3 MSI’s and had better Worlds placements than Knight and played for far longer. I mean agree he was better at top lane but in what world is that a point against him? He was the best top itw in 2021 over players like Bin, peak Breathe, Khan, Nuguri, etc.

[@nicholashunt1789]

I think the criticism you guys levy against right is completely justified since they lost the plot. I’m four years deep in chemo and wanted to make a ranked push to try to feel good about something and riot matchmaking the higher I get gets more hopeless. People with average 0/13 scorelines go unpunished but they want to word police streams. The game died because they want to lord over the community instead of working on what is important to us.

[@rubencp93]

Please let the next discord server be in europe. Screaming Thorin with poor audio quality and cuts is horrible!! And because of his interruptions, we don't get to hear what Monte has to say, AND we don't get to hear Thorin either, because the audio cuts, since Monte is the host.

[@THEkullerpuller]

Bro the LEC GMing is so bad compared to what the LPL and LCK did. I get that they don't have a lot of money but seriously. Think about how many good players either went to other leagues or aren't playing at all in 25. Are you really telling me that an ERL Rookie (Rookie = good hands, makro needs to be taught/needs direction in game) over Bo (Best hands of any jungler in the west ever, makro needs to be taught / needs direction in game)? Like how is this even a debate for some of these teams? And Jankos is even more criminal. You want Malrang when Jankos is just sitting there? Granted, Jankos might have declined the roster but honestly any team that doesn't habe Razork on it should try to get him! Then there's Trymbi who was always one of the top supporters in the league, you're telling me he's somehow not LEC level? Like how is he not a slam dunk for rogue when they still have Larssen on their team who he WON THE LEC with?? Of course you need some rookies every year but they should be the absolute top of the ERL and not just some guy with less leverage to negotiate with who you're gonna drop after one year anyway to get the next one. It ruins the league, it ruins the careers of these young players and it ruins the careers of actually good players that should be in the league but aren't because 'Reddit said he's bad'.

Some context for the Faker stream, he has not streamed since winning worlds but that morning the T1 stans sent trucks to the HQ to complain about the Zeus + gumayusi signing. They have to get him out of offseason as PR to tell everyone to calm down, and tank the hate coming T1's way. Now the 'fan rush' situation is a lot scarier knowing that he's also tanking the haters too. Another reason to dislike T1 org

[@elizabethmurigi1131]

Faker has streamed. He reviewed Worlds. And he's been doing lots of fan meets

[@dlldldldl]

I thought the trucking stopped since they won worlds back to back. I think this unhinged fan behavior is one of the reasons why Zeus wanted out.

[@elizabethmurigi1131]

@@dlldldldl there were screenshots shared on Reddit about the group and it's not T1 fans. They were raising funds for the trucks but I don't know if they sent them. And I don't think any sane T1 fan would blame Guma for Zeus leaving. Zeus literally shared his victory "happiness" with Guma because he's the teammate who helped him most during Worlds.
