I came to #EsportsWorldCup with something to prove for OW2 & OWCS specifically. I hope we were able to achieve and show some of that. Couldn’t ask for a better team to help reach that goal—or a better tournament to showcase it. Beyond grateful for the crew, the players & fans 🧡

Doran on 2024 11-09 stream “Which team will take me in, I really envy them. I’ll make it someday! I’m actually a really good player. No matter where I end up and what criticism I get, don’t feel sad for me — I’ll succeed one day! Those people don’t really understand League of

It’s Worlds 2017. You’re 21 years old in China, having just been eliminated in the grand finals. It’s Worlds 2025. You’re 29 years old in China, having just achieved an unprecedented threepeat. You are Lee Sanghyeok. You are Faker. And there will never be anyone like you.

maybe one of the greatest core rosters (OFGK) in esports history and they aren’t even done yet. faker really got the ones who were promised since like ~2015 in OGK. still feels unreal that they won the series last night.

@lolesports Palindrome and he loses this year. To win 3 more after this year 👀

nah like its so fucking unserious they are fucking down 1-2 and this fucker is just geeking over his bird flapping his wings faster bc of phase rush

makes me respect the blue jays even more knowing they wore 51 on their hats probably aware of what happened. dog fight of a 7 game series, but humanity always comes first.

Also Vi > Pouty objectively in everything but the mirror, and in the mirror I think getting your Vi to stick to the board is such a strong body compared to Pouty that it’s just better to run as a one-of 2 drop than Pouty.

Waiting for people to play Vi > Pouty Poro. Pouty having deflect is honestly bait, doesn’t give you enough tempo adv for when you play it vs playing a Vi and having it stick to the board or dodge with Retreat on a kill spell Vi also is a ‘closer’ for late game / time warp plays.

Interesting tidbit from last night's Dodger Talk with David Vassegh: apparently, during the benches-clearing incident in Game Seven of the World Series, the player who chirped the most was Blue Jays closer Jeff Hoffman. After that, multiple Dodgers veterans screamed at Hoffman,

Qiyana performed great for keeping tempo / rune economy vs Kai’Sa matchups, but being 4 Might without ways to buff really makes it tough to justify in the Aurora build; still I think worth considering as a tech. Biggest takeaway from playing the hybrid build is I think

Played this list for Nexus Night at my LGS. Great store & let us use proxies, so I experimented with an MF Aurora build running a small midrange unit package. 3:0 record R1: 🎲W vs Kai’sa, W R2: 🎲L vs Kai’sa, W R3: 🎲L vs MF, W Would cut Merchant, but card has potential.

We are finally finished with POVs for the year outside of what is to come from Stockholm. We had so many amazing tournaments this year and hype moments! As usual, I have everything broken down into playlists for you all, for 2025. Make sure you bookmark these!

If I was to put together an OWCS off-season tournament to give players and teams a solid place to participate and stay sharp, What would it take to make it worth everyone's time? What kind of prize pool? Should it be cross region? RTs appreciated. Lets make this happen

"Which player doesn't dream of being the tallest mountain, the longest river? But who wants to walk that exact same road?"

Not discrediting this and love to see former OWCS players like SparkR succeeding, but we have to remember Valorant’s early T1 tournaments were “baby” CS/Overwatch/Fortnite players mostly. Give the esport some time.
