@Cubbyxx I hadn’t even thought of that. Good point.

@Amazingx Yes, think the most innocent example of this is the games that are chosen to stream. Biggest games get priority, importance of a broadcast existing to cover the league in full has been diminished in the eyes of the community with costreaming playing a role in that imo.

The co-streaming problem is fundamentally one of different responsibilities and accordingly, one of different interests: A co-streamer only has a vague “mission” to promote the players and the underlying game, while they simultaneously aim to increase their personal fan base.

Sure, if the co-streamer is altruistic enough, and perhaps even well connected to the broadcast mission, that can likely be reflecting well, but this probably requires such a specific set of morals that it should be harder to come by than the amount of co-streamers we have.

@DShyKnock The video is clinging to the right ideas, but is incredibly inconsistent as it simultaneously functions as an ad campaign for FQ’s own influencers (one of which is the worst offender of creating toxic fan bases). The negative side of co-streaming is captured well though.

Replies blowing up in this tweet because Caedrel crashed out over it on stream Since I’m basically being called an idiot in this here’s the issues: 1) the problem right now is not people calling out costreamers it’s the opposite and Sjokz just addressed this on TikTok - costreamer communities are getting beyond toxic and not giving a shit about the base product beyond the creators themselves then taking that out on everyone else. To say it’s people going at costreamers is just ignoring the louder other half. 2) the answer to the problem isn’t to put the worms back in the can and we all know that. So, when you’re offering a solution that will be part of the “problem” technically you do have an obligation to explain why it’s different Is it self promo? Yeah no shit, it inherently has to be in order to answer the inevitable questions that will pop up after 3) if that Thumbnail is AI then that’s on Flyquest to explain, didn’t think it was given how many thumbnails I’ve seen exactly like it without AI We can chat more later before the #LCS Costream but that covers the bases for now as more comments and the conversation inevitably blow up from here

Third-party tournaments always lended more spice to the Riot internal tournaments too: the fatigue of watching competition has only set in once the monotony of the monopoly became predominant. Variety is the spice of life, from graphics to formats to caster diversity etc.

“The rise of the third-party ecosystem has actually been really interesting” >literally killed it 10 years ago by eliminating IEMs, IPLs, Dreamhacks, etcetera etcetera The lack of accountability is remarkable. I am in awe.

For KR it’s almost the opposite; scaling junglers work because laners play according to predictable, high level routines that are so detailed and fleshed out that they account for jungle being late/being the follow-up. Junglers loosen up once lanes loosen up, not vice versa.

Their laners are great, but they’re not top tier KR level, but the jungle x lanes interactions is where it’s at. If jungle can play loose, their lanes loosen up, and you want to mitigate confidence acquisition in the early game for that reason. Don’t grant them their rhythm.

I don’t know what G2’s scouting indicated, but jungle against Chinese teams and Xun especially (unless you have plenty of long term scrim experience against them), usually boils down to matching early game strength. You can play scaling lanes, you can’t play scaling junglers.

Sacrifice jungle scaling for ensuring you’re getting through the early game should be the name of the game for G2. Xun gets to play an “illegal” game, while Skewmond has to adhere to routine setups that Xun continues to be able to violate

G2 needs to opt into early, cheesy botside plays if BB continues to play defensive, scaling matchups. They’re not given the same afk affordances GenG granted them, they need to fight fire with fire and pick better lvl 3 jungle champions. Heck even Nunu would be a good pick

@TheTriarii That tracks

@Amazingx I don't have the data in front of me but I am pretty sure Na's Eastern upsets are usually against Chinese teams and eu's are typically against Korean teams. Tomorrow will be interesting.

As dumb as this sounds, the map states JDG/BLG generate are going to be a lot rougher for G2 to face. They could rely on scouting purely today, but CN teams don’t abide by the same meticulous, standardized play patterns

Moreover: CN teams have tendencies, instead of “routines”: volatility is intrinsic. So unless your routines incorporate all of their tendencies and punish them continuously, you’re in for a fist fight

Honestly need LYON to lose just because I want to see Inspired’s reactions after

Honestly, awesome response. Also great that she gets to speak not just through the paradigm or lens of an athlete, but with the respect of being acknowledged as a full-fledged individual with a multitude of high level ideas and interests beyond the sport (League could use this)
