I listen to all of these during my drive to work in the morning , I don’t know if Jatt sees these threads but if you do see this Jatt , just wanted to say thanks man. Having a wife and baby makes it hard to watch every game with all my attention so these recaps for worlds and LCS help me stay engaged and up to date , greatly appreciated.
Appreciate it!
How come in the main reddit feed, the video thumbnail isn't showing as usual?
I uploaded the YouTube vid before the thumbnail generated I think
Why does he post 81 and 83 on youtube but not spotify/apple podcasts?
Because I’m trolling :o gonna upload 83 now
I figured, but I also figured he had a big hand at designing this. I’m sure we’ll hear about this on the next JLXP.
I did not have any hand in designing this voting system.
In the article it claims CLG has one of the hardest remaining schedules but that definitely isn’t true. They play TSM and IMT in the last week.
Oh wow. Sorry about that :( Looks like I read the schedule wrong, they should be 2x Red, 1x yellow 2x Green which makes it a very average schedule in the next 5
In the final two weeks of the season, here are the head to heads between these top 6 teams, lots and lots of important matchups.
Week 7 Day 1 - TL vs Fly, CLG vs C9
Week 7 Day 2 - Fly vs CLG, C9 vs 100T, EG vs TL (these games are the first three of the day, this is going to be a hype Sunday)
Week 8 Day 1 - Fly vs 100T
Week 8 Day 2 - CLG vs 100T
Week 8 Day 3 - EG vs C9, TL vs 100T
100T has four more head to heads with top 6 teams, C9 CLG FLY TL have three matchups, and EG has two.
edit: Also if anyone is curious about records within the top 6 only:
100T - 3-3
C9 - 4-3
CLG - 2-5
EG - 6-2
FLY - 3-4
TL - 3-4
Thanks for this!
Glen dropped by on the TSM subreddit to clarify Kayys and Huni. He said said Riot only allows for 4 coaching staff in the database between academy and LCS, and to be on stage you have to be one of those 4. They wanted Huni on stage so he was added there and Kayys was dropped but Kayys is still with the team.
Appreciate it! Updated video description as well
This isn't Blame game wtf
Read moreCool video, but there's something that I've been wanting to bring up for a while that I think is relevant here-- lots of people have been calling FlyQuest 2022 Spring as a team that got off to a bunch of early wins, but eventually couldn't keep up with the "better" teams and then fell off.
That's totally fair. But I also see a lot of people talk about how they got off to an early start by "cheesing" or "abusing" Enchanter top, and then when that got banned out they fell off after, or somehow attributing their early start to using the strategy. I think that idea is mostly untrue.
Firstly, FlyQuest started out 5-1. Of those 5 wins, only 2 of them were using Enchanter top. They were both during week one of the LCS. The first game they played, they were against CLG and won easily-- but CLG was one of the worst teams of the League in 2022 Spring, and I don't think it's fair to say that FlyQuest won against that CLG team by "abusing" anything. They likely would have beat...
tyty, will keep in mind for future FLY discussions
Wasn't 2015 C9 record-wise the worst NA team at an international event? They won the tiebreaker for 7th, missed playoffs, and then ran the gauntlet
Oh wow yeah you’re right. I’ll correct next episode
Also love it. They've been doing a good job with the graphics to break down the path to playoffs and the MVP mountain graphic is such a meme.
Appreciate the kind words! (from an LEC flair no less) We're doing our best to mix memes/fun with analysis so I'm glad people are liking it :)
Do you think you'll ever have Kien Lam back on the podcast? I really enjoyed his guest appearances when you did JLXP a couple of years ago but he seems to be busy with other stuff atm. I'm not sure how much he keeps up with LCS now that he's not doing the 10 thoughts articles anymore.
Yeah i'd like to have him back, but he's currently not super up to date with LCS. We'll find the right topics eventually
while you're here, I just wanna point out that you sometimes mention Contratz went to worlds with C9 in 2016, it was actually 2017.
Ty
jatt if you can read this, thank you for usually posting these as close to monday as possible! soo much better than uploading on thursday or later in the week!
I can in fact read this. I'll also say I usually do a wednesday or Thursday episode as well that's either on a new topic or is more of a preview of the next week. Appreciate the comment though!
On the topic of the amount of games jojopyun has been playing, this is probably where his young age comes as a massive benefit. You just don't have many other commitments/responsibilities to attend to at that age. Good on him and hope EG is making sure he doesn't burn out.
Also here's the Danny tweet: https://twitter.com/DannnyIoI/status/1500614993082937344?t=JzcTIIlwuS9vDq5SYhZWWQ&s=19
Big yikes but he's not wrong.
Looks like the data I was reading at the time for games played in Champ Q was unfortunately doubled. Sorry about that! These should be accurate numbers now: https://oracleselixir.com/cq/leaderboard
I think the games played they quoted were wrong though. They said Jojo played like 370 games but https://www.championsq.com/ shows him at 196. Even https://oracleselixir.com/cq/leaderboard which they quoted has him at 196 so im confused
Damn. Yeah I made that mistake. I was looking at OE data last night and unfortunately it looks like it was doubled at the time of video creation. Definitely creates a different context for the conversation
Jatt, you say you read the comments so I'm choosing to start my crusade here.
When is Riot going to release jungle proximity as a viewable stat. Give me jungle proximity and forward percentage you cowards.
Honestly I really want this to happen. Even as a coach in 2020 I couldn't look at Jungle proximity for EU or KR teams even though I knew the stats existed and could be randomly shown on broadcast. I'll keep trying to push for it
$60k is not a small prize for Rank 1. Really interested to see how it turns out for NA practice quality wise. I’d be suprised to hear or see any negative circumstanes regarding Champion’s queue. This is definitely a step forward for NA in long term.
It's 400k announced in total prizing across the year, but it's broken down into a bunch of splits/seasons.
still crazy that you got that username
Had it for 14 years ;)
Jatt's Power Rankings:
- TL
- 100T
- EG
- C9
- DIG
- TSM
- IMT
- CLG
- FLY
- GG
Important to note that these rankings are trying to project spring split standings at the end of 18 games. If they were based on who will eventually be the better team (like to win a playoff series) or who is strongest right now they would look different
