Oh yeah btw I tried to get
@FNATIC
to buy out his contract around that time when I left
@T1LoL
, before he even played his first pro game and when we considered
@Bwipo
jungle
What could have been
Zeus, aged 16. Former
@T1LoL
trainee.
He will be eligible to play during the upcoming LCK spring split
Numerous LCK players, coaches, analysts have quoted Zeus as "the top laner to keep an eye out for"
I've never seen a player get this hyped up before his debut since Keria
I feel like we're at the point where a full LoL logic/engine rewrite is warranted due to the sheer volume of mundane bugs.
It's a huge undertaking and would cost millions to Riot, but hopefuly make the game more maintainable and less buggy.
This bug might have eliminated TES from Worlds.
In the final moments of GAM vs TES, Karthus ults TES team.
Nami w/ 96 MR takes 930 Damage.
Lucian w/ 100 MR takes 924 Damage.
But Lucian had Maw. It activated, but didn't block any damage. Otherwise, he would have had 600+ HP.

Is France just that broken at team sports? Maybe we need a
@lolesports
French national team too ๐ค
HE FINALLY DID IT
He said in an interview ~5 years ago he wanted to be an import in an Asian team
Happy to see it finally work out for him!
Now if he could stop joining teams after I leave them that'd be nice
[Sources] Support Rekkles ๐ธ๐ช has reached a verbal agreement with T1 as he will play for the academy team in the LCK Challengers League.

Ok so:
- Wukong is broken
- Umbral Glaive is broken
- Wukong likes Lethality
- Wukong wants to deny vision and flank
Why aren't people rushing Glaive on Wukong?
- Watching
#LCK
:
No rush 15, gentlemenโs agreement, first blood at soul fight
- Watching our scrims:
15 kills at 10, everybody playing like pyschos, first blood before minions spawn
Tbf at that point he hadn't played a single pro game yet, so being in LEC with a much worse training environment and competitive schedule would likely have fucked up his career so I'm happy this didn't go through
I'm sure we'll make a sick duo with
@YamatoMebdi
and I can't wait to be in Berlin with the team!
Leaving Japan and moving to a coaching position weren't easy decisions, but I am stoked about 2021 and ready to fight for the crown
It's pretty hilarious that
@LSXYZ9
spent years making fun of people for buying anti heal when then didn't need it...
Then drafts heal-reliant comps and nobody buys anti heal against them!
Weโre proud to announce that Gary Mialaret โTolkiโ is joining us as the Head of Strategy and Analytics and Park โHajinโ Hyunseon as team analyst and manager. Please welcome amazing staffs to the team!

@chhopsky
This makes absolutely no fucking sense mathematically as well, since 500k by 25 would translate into much more than 1M by 40.
Even with conservative market estimates of ~8% nominal growth per year you'd be at ~1.6M without saving anything for 15 years.
Thats fucking League of Legends right there. None of that pansy ass dick tugging playing safe for lategame bullshit. People puke on the rift, people poop on the rift, people deliver their new born baby on the rift.
Fnatic and MAD are here. And they're here here to stay.
A bittersweet ending to a great experience.
This was a crazy year. From Berlin to Tokyo, from coach to analyst.
Thanks a lot to all of you who were a part of it.
I now understand the appeal of crypto companies to invest in
@LCSOfficial
The gold graphs look exactly like cryptos value so the viewers won't be lost!
Andrew Tate is a massive asshole and associating with him, doubling down on being his friend, then liking tweets defending his trash behavior is not a good look
Never forget that people get in position of wealth and power mostly by luck and they shouldn't be role models
Very small news compared to what's going in this off-season, but my contract with Fnatic has come to an end as was planned after my summer role swap
I am not planning to join an esports team next year as I'm working on another project at the moment!
@wunderlol
Tbf, Riot has provided shitty PCs at Worlds for 5 years now. Teams know that too and have had issues every year.
At some point teams should just understand it and handle IT themselves.
Two years after my last time on stage it's crazy to see how cursed Fnatic Spring 2021 ended up being:
- Hylissang -> GIGACHAD ALWAYS PLAYING
- Nisqy -> 1 split out
- Upset -> Teamless
- Selfmade -> Benched
- Bwipo -> Benched
- Yamato -> Teamless
- Tolki -> Teamless
Well played to the boys, that was an insane performance!
And very sorry for the G2 Internet issues that made
@G2GrabbZ
ban Renekton instead of Taliyah ๐ฅฐ
If you ever get to 6 items Jhin, don't go to 120% crit! That's ~750g worth of wasted stat
Ravenous Hydra/GA/Death's Dance are all superior for both damage and survivability!
All in all, let's not forget
@Fnatic
had a good showing at Worlds.
They beat T1 convincingly and were very close in their game 1 vs EDG. That's imo more than expected, seeing T1 and EDG are likely both top 4 teams.
Ih still hurts after that super strong week 1 though ๐ฅฒ
Gragas has secretly been one of the best LoL champion for 10 years btw
Non committal engage + disengage, can always be flexed, multiple playable builds,...
Wish it was Rogue's R4 instead of the croco ๐ฅฒ
Reworked the European LEC in-houses server to make it clearer and easier to use!
It is now open to starters from:

HEALTH THREAD
Health a crucial topic if you want to perform, even in video games. How to be healthy is something that's be heavily researched, and we know what needs to be done.
Letโs talk about:
- Diet
- Activity
- Rest
T1 has now lost in the finals of its 4 last tournaments:
- MSI
- Summer 2022
- Worlds
- Spring 2023
Reaching the finals 4 times in a row definitely makes them the best team in the world overall but that has to sting
After a night of sleep I want to say WP to
@G2esports
for being such a challenge and pushing us to our utmost limits
Let's not forget the people behind the players, and while we love to dish out and take banter I'm also genuinly sad we won't be together at Worlds
My job here is done (and I'm going to sleep at 6:30AM)
Looking forward to a banger series against
@G2GrabbZ
and
@DuffmanLoL
on Sunday for all the marbles
When you're at the point where an item doesn't fullfill its most basic function in a relatively standard situation, there's something deeply wrong with the way the logic is implemented.
And yes it'd cost ~5/10 millions to Riot, but it's likely worth it long-term imo.
Thanks to all the people at
@T1LoL
for the extraordinary experience.
I decided to leave as I couldn't help the team as much as I wanted partly due to COVID-19 upsetting travel plans.
I wish the team the best, and hope we will face again on the rift!

Today we part ways with Comet and Tolki. We highly appreciate their contribution to the team this year and wish them all the best.
One unsung strengths of
@FNC_Upset
and
@FNCHylissang
is how fast they learn new combos at the highest level
Last year their Samira + Rell got the champs nerfed
Now they're smashing people with Zeri + Renata
@wunderlol
You can have laptops or SFF PCs with easy 1000+ FPS perfs by now, there's no reason why professional teams with millions in funding can't afford 5 of those to be in good conditions at every tournament.

@RiotSupport
I feel like it's good that Peanut still gets a chance to kinda play after that early. He was still far behind on gold and XP.
Games over at 4 minutes aren't exactly fun, and he did come back by killing high level camps due to fast respawns from Canyon's clears
With the sweeping changes to LoL in the preseason, having a strong data analyst will prove unvaluable to unearthing alternative strategies
I'm open to offers from all

I'm a free agent looking for coaching opportunities in 2021:

- ๐ฅ LCK Spring 2020 Winner
- Worldwide reference on LoL data
- Open to relocation
- Management-focused education (
@Polytechnique
) and professional experience
@AshleyKang
TL by a lot imo. The number of titles between the team's players is staggering, whereas in Vitality only Perkz found major success in the past.
