My hot takes:
1. LS wouldn't even be considered for the job(s) if the person's in charge first language was Korean. 2. LS's reaction proves he's incapable of handling pressure. Compare him to Doublelift who just shrugs whenever randoms on discord or reddit crticise him. Note that those randoms had legitimate reasons to do that this year while LS haters had to bring up things from the past. Talented or not, he's not someone you'd want to lead your team. 3. Hiring Western personalities in the Korean scene is ridiculous and shows prioritizing short term gains over long term growth. TomatoCanyon and LS hirings were PR stunts. 4. It's weird how Korean and Chinese scenes are both more developed and more immature than Western scenes. None of this shit would matter in Europe or NA.

A lot of proud KR 'fanboys' can't handle others being better than their lovable players and coaches. Sad honestly.

TL roster is unofficially Alphari/Santorin/Jensen/Tactical/CoreJJ
Pretty disgusting roster, should definitely contend with Fudge/Blabber/Perkz/Zven/Vulcan
|
Also I'll keep editing this post but the NA Scouting Grounds draft is live and so far. These interviews are hilariously cringe
IMT: Tony Top [Top Laner] CLG: Yeon (Former 100X) [ADC] Dig: Copy (Former 100X) [Mid] GG (acquired the pick that would have been 100T): Niles (Played for Maryville in Collegiate) [Top] EG: Tomio [Jungler] GG: (their actual pick): Yunbee [Mid] C9: Shady (former P1) [Support] TL: Spawn [adc] FQ: Nxi (Former 100X) [Jungler] TSM: Shoryu (Former TL.A) [Adc]
Kind of surprised that 100T after creating 100X, kept just 2 of their players, then didn't actually draft anyone here. FlyQuest picking a jungler makes sense given Santorin is out

Here is Nemesis referencing since deleted tweets from Bwipo, that were discussing a leaked Discord log including T1 Staff.
Here's a video of it being discussed that people were threatening his grandmother. Here's another one.

It's not surprising LS broke down under this stress, this is way more hate than what Doublelift ever received. Fans hired a truck with ads on its side to drive around the T1 building, harassed and threatened his grandmother, homophobic discord (which I absolutely imagine spilled into direct harassment), and the sheer size of this witch hunt is crazy. Blows my mind how invested people are into the T1 team that they are willing to do these things. And yeah, I agree with a lot of reddit users, T1 has said very little and are basically leaving him out to dry. Makes me understand why Kkoma might not have wanted to stay, imagine if he had a bad split and people suddenly stalked/harassed his pregnant wife.

not sure how that t1 tweet from sep 3 is relevant? i know specifically what that tweet is referring to and it isnt ls, its comments made against faker and his grandma on his stream. based on your other links its pretty safe to say "torture" is being overly dramatic. are there even any other sources about ls' grandma being harrassed besides that one comment from nemesis?

if you go into that thread there's a dude posting receipts from a discord were its happening. I don't know what to tell you man. I get it, you clearly don't like LS. I don't know what else to say. I sent 2 videos, a screenshot from the discord, and 2 people tweeting about it.

Astralis roster: Whiteknight Zanzarah Nukeduck Jeskla Promisq
Besides this looking like a budget team, note the absence of Upset. Wonder who will pick him up.
|
Wait where did Broxah go?

I assume Upset is on whichever of G2/FNC didn't get Rekkles. Outside chance he actually got picked up by iG after that screenshot surfaced that he was being looked at
|
If the rumored clg roster is true lol, why even bring in imports if you aren’t trying for top5 just play random na/sea players and hope for a jackpot
|
Maybe they're cheaper? I assume Pobelter and Damonte demanded more than Eika and Ryoma.
Players from Oceania aren't supposed to take up import slots starting from the next season too.
|
Hyli back on Fnatic as per Jacob Wolf, all that's left is whether or not Rekkles takes the inevitable G2 offer, or stays
Hauntzer out of GGS
And yeah that CLG roster looks like another year of bottom of the pack. All they have to do is avoid bottom 2 (or was it just last?) for a split to avoid the "getting looked at for removal" portion of the franchising agreement. Assuming anyone cares about it anymore

That’s what I’m trying to say although I think I made it unclear by using sea instead of oce. If you can’t secure a top 5 roster you should play 5 cheap, high upside risky non imports. You should not be paying to import 2 EU players and starting Pobelter

Huni to TSM, as per the Jacob Wolf Offseason stream. I'm not sure if the fact that BB is better than Huni, but Huni is no longer an import, makes this a down grade or and upgrade
