this is why you are better than travis and thooorin

[@wss7084]

You got that hum noice again starting 11:48

[@Bulettenmann]

At 38:45 you say Flyquest *smashed* CLG last split. Curious about what team you were actually thinking off since CLG 2-0 FQ.

This road trip would be a legendary Netflix show

[@rockdalianninja1056]

Dohkla is dophinder from Deadpool he’s enthusiastic and motivated he wants to help the team but all he can do is make some jokes and comes crashing in the end to steal the last kill after the team sets him up

[@declenparker6049]

I like that the first part of this podcast is thooorin and loco don’t understand how big America is. Every one whose lives in America knows what I’m talking about.

17:56 on liquid, they smashed tsm first game, but not c9 yet

[@DrXiffy]

They had to wait there turn, 100T had to get theirs first.

[@kirbysxx]

fucking love thorin and loco, so fucking funny and classic

[@6666Imperator]

Rift Rivals is more of a fan event than an actual relevant tournament for the pro's

[@Elena-gj6ow]

TL only beat TSM because of draft? Teams have won with Azir many times, even into Sylas, this split. TL one of them, so idk what kind of excuse that really is.

[@balance1619]

Got to remember Loco is a TSM megafan he will defend them in literally any situation. I do the same with C9 😂

[@SkynetVanNoided]

Out of bed to fresh Loco, nice.

[@Zanjiii]

This 2 man are so much better then anything else, besides really good guests like veteran,LS, dom, kelsey and so on, i dont see the point why you guys should take a random third guy if you cant get one of the rly good guests

same here. But I mean for real.

Smeb isn’t the same monster he used to be.

[@FiendTheKing]

@@KleinpeterHank No question, but much like Solo he went from a joke, one of the worst tops in the league to arguably the best. Solo may well follow the same path of just tanking after a few years but who knows?

In 1:15:30, you can say that what Amazing brought to the team isn't "amazing" I'll show myself out

[@Izkimar]

They had metas where it was almost a meme about Meteos ganking top for Balls. So idk if you're correct on him historically not ganking top.

[@afriendofjamis]

Flyquest confuses me because of the amount of veterans on the team. Gotta clean up the mid game.

[@ValiumNightclub]

This my fav one yet idk why

[@Therd23]

why again just before LEC?! LOCO?!

Good content

[@nguyentri3608]

What do you mean? We just had LEC last episode.

[@Therd23]

@@nguyentri3608 i meant the timing once again is 1 hour before LEC stream starts..

[@loops1316]

The problem with 100T boils down to acouple of things one being the biggest things are their early game macro it seems like they are still in a season where players will leave you alone all game until 30 minutes then they all put on the fistie cuffs. Where as we know all top 3 teams are ENDING games before 15 minutes usually before 12 minutes you can basically call a game. Sadly Bang and Ssumday are on the shit end of a stick Bang can't do anything if his support dies 3x before 10 minutes and mid and jng die as well that's basically a rip. Ssumday is now in a situation where he knows that he can go anywhere for the most part but now is stuck on academy, I like amazing because he tells it how it is, but lets not forget they are 1-5 not 5-1 so it's not looking like it was that amazing of a pickup. I agree with you guys tho all this talent and consistent Losses seems like something is going wrong with the coaching staff. Personally tho I think Bang will hit that 1Way flight back to KR or China based off the emotions he showed during the spring split I don't think he really cares that much about the $ where he cares about his rep. SKT is about to be in resignations and if it goes threw I am curious to see if 100T drops some serious checks.

[@cupcakecula321]

Isn't Amazing considered an import? Can anyone explain me da rulz?

[@aamgdp]

He's considered NA native because he started career there. When he was in Europe, he was considered import there.

[@cupcakecula321]

But didn't he played for EU teams before playing in NA LCS, he even played in EU LCS in 2014 Spring, does that not count? Him being an import in EU despite being from there and played there 1st is kinda funny. WuT r Da RuLz???

[@aamgdp]

@@cupcakecula321 ok got it mixed up a little and forgot he played on cw. The thing is, the import rule didn't exist in 2014. Found this lol.gamepedia.com/Residency_Requirements , the important part is, when they introduced the residency rules, players got to choose their region residency based on where they played, and since he played in EU and NA, he could choose his residency between the 2. He picked NA, and was considered an import in EU after that.

[@kiresedivaneb]

I don't usually defend 100T but technically Meteos requested a trade. He was so offended by 100T scrimming rift rivals with Levi and an anonymous top laner he told them to screw and left. And yes him leaving is the primary cause for them to go super passive and being punished by the midseason marksman nerf patch last year. It's a solo carry world, games end earlier, and importing an adc isn't full value. Prolly should have been fired last split. After 2018 spring finals 100T finished below .500 through rift rivals, summer split+playoffs, and worlds 2018. They have only won 5!!! games this entire year. This team can't be fixed, not even with Dardoch+Midlet.

[@adrianzaldana2167]

The lash back 100T got for swapping out two players at RR left a bad taste in NA’s mouth though. Why even try those two players when your roster is fking working??? A smart coach would allow their working roster play against the BEST EU teams. It’s good practice regardless if it’s a for fun tourny. Meteos had every right to be mad. They took his chance to play against great EU teams. Also, he didn’t tell them to screw. He asked to see if he could get offers from other teams because be knew the situation he was in when a team subs you out. They sold his ass and they didn’t tell him AFTER the trade lol. If anything the team screwed him, but it’s business. But I agree, Pr0lly is underwhelming. His team building decisions are god awful and a huge reason why they’re getting bad results

[@Izkimar]

I get Thorin's point. But Sven's Gragas game was pretty shaky. So that could be why they decided to play him was for that specific comp.

[@Spinexus]

I prefer rift rivals over a normal lcs/lec week!
