Fudge is the heel we needed since Doublelift retired.

Closer is just awesome.

Vulcan makes me laugh all the time.

The new faces of the league. I am glad we are getting some fresh content on them. I feel more connected to these players then I ever did DL or Bjerg cause I came in at around 2019 so I don't have the connection a lot of people have to the old guard.

I am really loving the story lines they are making.

Glad to hear that! That's definitely our goal 💜

Killin the game out here Jackie.

It's the features and content team! They are awesome. We set out with a goal this summer of focusing more on players and their personality and really happy to read some of the comments here about player personality :) Lots more to do but awesome to hear that people are noticing 🤗

Got a question, might be a weird one, but I think its relevant. Why would the LCS like stop doing such things (focusing on player personalities) etc...? Things you might categorize as "the basics" of any sports league. Is it a case where leadership gets complacent from past successes? Or just people egoing it?

Not exclusive to LCS but every esport I've worked on has focused on different creative approaches or angles... some focus more on the teams or cities, some focus more on the competition, talent skits, etc. Just saying that we're made an intentional focus across broadcast, content, etc to really showcase player personalities and asking them to be themselves.
