Pretty sure they shot 2 episodes on the same day just to give us extra content before the teams left for worlds.
You'd be correct!

When the brushes were the tallest objects on the Rift by far.
You will get it, kid. You will get that LCS/LEC spot. I really believe in you!
I hope so, be a shame to see such a talent not get any games at all.
He’s not officially retired, is he? I get why teams want to pick up a rookie, but I can’t imagine he wants a blank paycheck, and the experience alone would be worth it.
Technically he isn't retired and AFAIK he probably has a least some interest in playing still so we can always hope.
Wildturtle is definitely one of the LCS' greatest of all time, unironically. The dude has got little respect but he deserves a lot.
We thought so too, hence the video!
Honestly Turtle's longevity in the scene has been crazy and although it's unlikely, I would love to see him get another shot in LCS especially since his last showing was still relatively solid
I miss the days when I could definitively say he is the only player to have played in every LCS split. He played in the LCS for SO long.
Love this channel. Gives me Replay File vibes.
Also crazy to think about how long Turtles been playing. I liked him a lot on SR in the spring

Glad you like the channel!
How is Sniper that confident against Impact when he got GIGA Gapped two weeks ago? LOL
That's the beautiful thing about Sniper, he's always the same no matter the situation.
Kinda fitting that the only team in the LCS since the start is guaranteed to be in the finals
I'm gonna nitpick here but technically Liquid (or even Curse) haven't been around since the very, very start of the LCS.
BUT they are the oldest org in the League in Finals weekend and 2nd oldest overall behind C9.
It reminds me of a random bit of Doublelift's stream I caught earlier in the year of how he rarely listens to music while driving alone and would instead start thinking about item powerspikes and laning. Or closing his eyes before sleeping and seeing lane phase play out.
I've talked to quite a few players over the years that have mentioned using visualization (particularly before bed/while trying to sleep) to help them improve matchup understanding and 'practice' different scenarios while away from their computer.
Interestingly the player I first remember talking to this about was actually Biofrost!
I feel like Hai should have gotten into coaching with how creative of a player and shotcaller he could be at times but never did much for whatever reason.
Well do I have news for YOU about the state of the current C9 roster (Hai's the assistant coach I'm pretty sure, he's certainly on stage a lot with the team these days).
Disliked.
LMAO
Their rollercoaster didn't even stop there.
- Going into Worlds 2015, Jatt infamously commented about Balls's solo queue ranking, calling it a worrying trend.
- The first week of Worlds, Balls responds by pentakilling Fnatic, one of the favorites to win the tournament.
- C9 goes 3-0 in the first week and only needs 1 more win to make it out of groups.
- Loses the next 3 games and a tiebreaker to bring NA's week 2 record to 0-10
Imagine this being the first Worlds you cast LOL
YESSSSSSSS more content like this
Noted.
Can you look into no move briar bug as well please ?
Basically whenever you end your frenzy manually and pick up a card at the same time you enter a state in which you cannot move your character at all. You can only ult, or use your frenzy and then after the character just stands still.
I too have a strong repro rate for this one Sadge.
FWIW if you Frenzy again you'll be able to move .
RIP HHL though
I will miss listening to Mark talk shit every week. This has actually left me a lot more sad than I thought I would be.
Edit: WAIT THIS MEANS NO MARKZ ON THE DIVE. f**kKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK.
Hopefully we still get to see Catching Up with Doublelift. I will die a little inside if we lose one of the best pieces of content that the LCS has scene in half a decade.
I don't want to be the one to tell you, but as one of the producers of Catching Up it's probably gonna be on the shelf for awhile...
I do think content offerings will stay more in that lane though and the envelope will keep getting pushed but it's hard to justify a MarkZ driven show without MarkZ.
(Mark is great and I'm stoked for him btw, he just can't do everything at once try as he might)
I unironically want them to make content where the LCS casters and VCT casters interact (like pretend to cast each others games or something). It would be so funny.
I pitched this for start of VCT this year and it never went too far, maybe this is a good year for a repitch.
Can someone forward this to Pastrytime?
I have been summoned.
mark has never pbp casted in his whole career
Correct.
As someone that loves Mark and believes in his drive and talent in every way he should not be allowed to pbp LOL
Yeah it does a really good job of contextualizing the importance of this event within his career, and then contextualizing his career in terms of where he's at today. Really good stuff by Riot
I can tell you if that post script didn't exist we probably wouldn't have done this piece right now.
The fact that it's redemptive given current career context is what sells it.
