Probably imported some WeetBix for the big fella, he smashed a bowl of 7 with some Strawbs, Nanas and Honey like Fast Bowler Brett Lee and was raring to go.

LS casted a game with CaptainFlowers, dunno if it was during LCS or an amateur tournament.
Was defs an Amateur tournament for that one and I'm not sure what setup they were using.
Not an engineer, but can't imagine sync'ing up a cast would be practically possible, let alone what other routing/computer magic would have to happen to even attempt it.
We all miss international casts, but sadly I think trying to cast a live game remote across such a massive distance is way too big a technical feat.
u/Pastrytime awesome cast, my man
Stuff like this makes my day, thank you =)
That's what we do best here in NA
Then I am home after all.
Fun game. GG was guaranteed a win at some point if they played it properly. Once the nexus turrets were down, IMT had no choice but to respect the TF, because TF just ults into the base, GP follows, and ends the game while the rest of the team sacrifices to stop the backs.
There are many engine won positions in chess that require incredible accuracy to convert into an actual win by humans.
This felt somewhat like that where while it was won, accurately ensuring that as people and not robots is actually really impressive.
EMBRACE THE FIESTA
CoreJJ throwing down the gauntlet. Holy shit I'm so excited for the season to start!!
Core W_W
At this point I'm struggling to figure out what's filthier. Rell engage or CoreJJ.
Pretty sure it's Core...
Obligatory "Play Legends of Runeterra" comment
Seriously
It's really f**king good
I agree with this person.
I mean in the states at least minor league baseball and hockey is essentially the same thing. Football and basketball are definitely just separate leagues but players move up and down from their farm team all the time in those sports.
Yeah Academy is in this interesting spot where it's kinda of like a minor league, but a lot more like a reserves league in football (soccer). That isn't necessarily a bad thing, just kind of what it is.
I think injecting more players into the season payoff (Proving Grounds) and shortening the season kinda helps all of these modes in some way and will ultimately be more interesting/entertaining than previous seasons.
As always, things will probably be in-progress forever but at least this IMO is a step in a good direction for the league.
how can we as fans take Academy serious as a minor league when teams use it as a place to keep subs warmed up? Is this what the goal of academy is just a place to keep subs working?
In other sports/esports the minor leagues can be really fun to watch but I have neve felt that way about league academy. Its always just feels like a bunch of sub for a main roster instead of a few vets and new blood trying to get onto a main roster. Do you think opening it up to more armature teams could help foster a more competitive and entertaining minor league?
either way thank you for posting your thoughts on academy.
I think /u/tarongowens said it pretty well in regards to your first point.
In regards to your others about league/game quality I think both
1) It's gone up a lot as teams continue to invest and utilize Academy
2) We're actually planning on having Am teams play Academy teams in a small tournament in lieu of a longer Academy season which should increase both exposure to more talent and I think be super entertaining as a product too. You can read more about those changes here: https://lolesports.com/article/2021...
What you are referring to is a coach. A coach is responsible for developing and organizing new players lol.
Academy should be for up and coming talent.
Good Luck!
If League coaches were allowed in-games like other esports I'd be more aligned with this.
As it stands though, they aren't.
If by that you mean most played then it'd probably be Memories
Pressure goes so hard, love that track.
Could be a mid tier LCS team
I thought this a lot about Academy teams this year LOL.
Probably 2 birds 1 stone. Help develop the 3 young players and be decent backups for the 2 question marks in the roster
I've said this is many threads involving Academy and probably will keep doing so for awhile as the ecosystem develops/gets more publicity. In almost every case I've seen, heard or talked to teams about having veterans on their Academy team the sentiment is pretty universal: you need some veterans to guide your less experienced players.
While I think the term veteran can and should spread also to the more established Academy players as well, I think the idea that every former LCS name on Academy is suddenly washed and useless is one I'm working to reverse.
TL;DR Having some veterans in your Academy team is the standard for a reason, you need them to develop and organize your younger talent.
Yes.
This makes both less and more sense now.
I love it.
Honestly, with all the imports there’s got to be close to as many Canadians in the league as Americans. Nor to mention a few casters and coaches are Canadian too
Now that OCE players count as residents in the LCS am I still considered an import?
Going from 180 to 25 ping was pretty great though.
Fax. I think I had like 8 ping to OCE in my prime.
i have to ask what is your favorite pasty?
Pain of chocolate.
Also OCE played on NA servers for a long time before they got servers in NA
I remember the Before Before Times fondly...
