riot is going way too hard with these preseason terrain changes, like the new baron pit is fine but reducing the size of north america by 20% is unreal
I get that loads of people are excited for the coronation, but Charles is just the next in a line of dozens of English monarchs. Faker was only the fourth person in history to receive an OGN throne intro (2017 Spring LCK Finals). I know who my king is.
The whole purpose of sports washing is the sanitisation of the external view of Saudi Arabias government. Gestures like this further their aims by demonstrating that Saudi is a "safe" place for western members of the LGBT community to go and work. Emphasising that the Saudi
Don't know how in any world I'm reading negative or ironic tweets or quote retweets on this. Change doesn't happen overnight. People can scoff that it doesn't mean anything but it does even if it's just a needle.

Because I don't believe it is a win. It reinforces the whole purpose of events like this which is to make Saudi Arabias government more palatable to the west, and that oppressive domestic policies aren't relevant or applicable to foreigners so they shouldn't care. In an

until we leave this participation award, fake positivity, mama's boy mentality, we will go nowhere. until our players start breathing, eating and shitting league, we will go nowhere. it honestly seems like we're complacent and no one cares, it seems like we set our

Hey I'm LFT for LoL content creation roles for 2022! (❤️+🔁+vouchs plz)
I've created shows for
@LDN_Esports
,
@SQ1Esports
and
@TheUKEL
. I also started my own content creation project in September called
@LeagueworksLoL
, which has already worked with several NLC organisations.
tried to interview a player for some content but he just sat on call in a suit smoking a cigar and replied to every question with a gentleman chogath quotes i can't man get me out of this industry
"Roster Investigators" are the dirty secret of esports leaks. I went undercover to speak with a man who claims to have worked for "every esports journalist you've heard of"; using manipulation, threats and violence to obtain roster information, without a care for who gets hurt.
find it very strange that the comments on this are assuming this is over something trivial especially considering how well documented that actions of some "fans" has been in the past. massively underestimating the harm that people can/do cause without leaving their pc.
APEX Law LLC, on behalf of
@faker

has filed a case(s) against negative commentees towards Faker under Criminal Act Article 311 on July 19th, 3:10 PM KST

i've been working on a website over the past ~6 months to help people climb in league. it's the last day of our closed beta before we go fully online tomorrow. here's our launch trailer, hope you like it!
if your response to seeing a women's League of legends tournament announced on reddit is to go into the comments and ask to see their opgs you are a very normal person and definitely not incredibly insecure
so the punishment for se*ual ab*se in esports is 5 minutes on the naughty step, a spot on your old team, and returning to legions of fans who have either forgotten what you did or never cared in the first place?
Swiss Stage:
Instead of a Group Stage, the top 16 teams will play in a Swiss format where teams with the same win-loss record will compete against each other until they have 3 wins or 3 losses. The top 8 teams will advance to the

Knockout Stage!
We've been pumping out the team staff announcements, how about we change it up this time and give you a content creator!

Happy to announce that I'll be working on content creation for the
@NLClol
this split. Expect silly little videos to pop up here and there, but also content showcasing our region and players. Learned a lot in the past 6 months and can't wait to put it into practice!
wanna organise a lol event where we go all out on production. analyst desk, stats graphics, in game graphics, replays (with fancy camera control), custom champ select, post match replay breakdowns, live player cams in game, fancy scoreboard overlay etc. a proper tier 1 style show
following the news from
@Leagues_GG
I'm looking for casting work (LoL PBP) this spring. can work in all timezones. VoDs available on request. updated showreel coming soon, but wanted to get this out ASAP
i'd hardly say commentating is the most dangerous profession, but it's difficult to feel safe with midlaners constantly talking about needing to "one-shot casters"
it's not that it's being held in saudi arabia, it's that it's being funded directly by the saudi government with the expressed purpose of making their neo-feudal, dictatorial, oppressive regime an afterthought in the minds of the world.
they imprison and kill journalists, they
No? Well of course that wouldn't be hypocritical. It only matters when it goes against the "popular online view".
If you don't like an event being held somewhere. Maybe instead of criticising people trying to do their jobs. Just DONT WATCH THE EVENT. And since so many people

today has got me feeling kinda emotional. 18 months ago you'd have been forgiven for thinking our scene was dead. but in just under an hour I'm going to a live finals watch party. the patient hasn't recovered, but I can hear a heartbeat.

can we make it so players in tournaments on live servers have to use their pro IDs? don't know how long I can keep pretending that a player is called "Excalibur" or smth when it's clear they're actually named ï lðvê êgïrl§
Check The Corners!
Was having a chat with Duckling and he used this phrase which I absolutely love.
If there's nothing important going on in the blue rectangle, have a look at the red corners. They'll often be some time sensitive information in there you can talk about 1/2
Worlds Tierlist but it's only teams I've watched throughout the whole split and can confidently place rather than making assessments on teams i haven't seen based on previous international performances from the team/region that may not accurately reflect current form

@AshleyKang
want him to win so badly. i love faker and t1 and think they are brilliant. but i don't think i could take it to see deft fall at the final hurdle
had a small personal win yesterday. not really something i want to discuss (it's not casting/league related), but thought i should let y'all know i did a good thing
esports are basically humanitys's way of making themselves feel superior to animals. the best fighter in the world gets destroyed by a polar bear, a cheetah smokes the greatest sprinter on the planet, but have you ever watched a hammerhead shark try to animation cancel on riven?
there are 2 options:
1 - women are inherently worse at gaming (you're an idiot if you think this)
2 - women face barriers in esports that men don't
it's not complicated, a few high profile successes don't balance out the discrimination that women in esports experience daily
