♥️ + 📷 appreciated!
Honestly, today has taught me that a lot of people believe in me, a lot more than I ever thought possible, and that I don’t believe in myself as much as they do.
So, thank you to all that choose to believe in me, I won’t let you, or myself, down. 💜
Recently learned that people's perception of me is that I don't want to compete in NACL...
I did NOT hit Rank 1 and maintain Rank 2-3 just to be known as that "that Zoe one-trick" in SoloQ 😭she's just more fun for streaming purposes
HOLY FUARKKK 🥲 aw man
GGs & GL
@Toastyalex_LoL
carry on the UNDERDOG SAGA
In all honesty, what a crazy run for my first NACL split, so making it to Top 5 is going to be a core memory for me ⭐️
I used to wonder if people could be happy working every day.
Then, I started waking up to days without scrims with the Blue Otter team, and I understood.
Yeah. 😊
I’m just so happy when I get to play with them.
You never forget your first, and I sure won't.
Playing with everyone
@BlueOtterLOL
is honestly such an amazing experience as my first NACL split 🥹, so thank you

I just know we're going to turn heads during the home stretch. 💯
Welcome to Tax Evasion Zoe! A build based on
@cupicx
's First Strike Zoe build!
Just take every money / skill cheating rune
Most games, I made 2,000 gold from runes alone.
First base Symbiotic Soles --> Luden's --> Lich Bane --> Rabadon/Cryptbloom
This made me realize that my mindset was fundamentally faulty. I wondered how I would compete in LCS with great mids and felt disheartened after hearing about the downsizing.
I can’t be held back by this kind of thinking if I’m going to go pro. Actual pros definitely aren’t. 👊
Anyone who thinks this is a poor decision didn’t watch NACL.
Had the highest CSD
@15
across any league in the world in his role. He will create opportunities to win the game off his play.
All I’m saying is, game 5 of this new fearless draft doesn’t have any new bans…
And you know what that means for me, Qwacker, and everyone else whose mains get banned every game 😉
The
#NACL
returns on Saturday, June 15th for Summer Split with some exciting changes!
😈 Full Fearless Draft
💵 Money Matches
▶️ Brand New YouTube Channel
➕ And More!
As someone who plays in both CLOL (without fearless) and NACLQ + Promotional Tournament, Fearless is perfect.
If True Fearless, drafts are too chaotic and games quality dips in favor of picking OP champs in bad spots.
If no fearless, you get Ahri/Annie-like matchups every game.
So now that Spring Split is over what did everyone think of Fearless Draft?
Should we keep it for Summer?
Go even further and make it so teams lock each other out of picks?
Convince
@TheeMarkZ
to implement it for LCS?
There are no wrong answers!
Seen a lot of discourse around the NA midlane pool, so I wanted to shoutout someone who impressed me through the EG/SNxCNV combines:
@Samikintw
Aggressive laning, willingness to roam early and often, AND he's
#1
on the NA ranked ladder rn. Really hope he gets scouted
Forgot to do this yesterday, but made a bracketology sheet for which teams I think will qualify for
#CLOL
Top 32 & where they could potentially be seeded by the committee
This is all my analysis/opinion, sheet made before any results this week, which is conference semis for many
There is just a certain kind of sadness associated with being the youngest person in a college friend group and seeing them all graduate and move away.
Sometimes I wish I could stay in those moments with them forever 🥺
Dang these late night thoughts got hands. 😓
1-2 to the Throps, was a fun series and glad we’re improving week to week. Have a long way to go before we hit our ceiling but we’re getting there
GGs we 5-0 next weekend
Does anyone else's Discord just randomly turn into a gray screen and only resets itself back to normal after you minimize and reopen the window?
It's been happening for a few days now and it SUCKS to watch streams ;-;
@BCollamer
@ShibbyCasts
@HawkCasts
When the Blue Otter mid laner gets a 24 hour notice they’re going to be flown out to LA mid-split next year to play the rest of the stage games 😨
@Cubbyxx
In the same vein, pro-play should adopt fearless drafting to make each series unique.
For viewers, they watch more champions being played rather than the same 20 champions.
For pros, it forces them to play more champions whose power are under-utilized, like APA w/ Ziggs/Asol.
Who knew getting coached could give me such a headache. I feel my brain EXPANDING 🤕
Got all these new toys to try out, super excited to play vs CCG tomorrow now hehe
Honestly, the best part about our playoffs journey is that we have the potential to play the most amount of games than any other team, and I find that very exciting 🤌

Respect petit prince !
I’ve done irreparable harm to the high elo community and I’m reminded every time I see myself in streamer highlights for the absurd angles they get killed from 😊
One of my new favorite things is watching TikToks of league streamers and seeing NACL/Q players in their clips.
Like this alicopter clip hits way harder knowing it was against Duckie Getters top laner and NACLQ most improved player drcalculus

I hate to say it, but any college level math course becomes infinitely harder when you haven’t taken any Calculus because of Covid… this seriously SUCKS 😭
pride month is over.. which means i have something to reveal to all of my fans.
i am actually homiesexual
I know this is very controversial so i hope you can find it within your heart to accept me. thank you for your support 🤪

I understand there’s a stereotype that gamers stay until super late, but what do they actually do?
I don’t know about y’all, but I’m not staying up until 5 A.M to play League games after a 2 hour queue 😭
I used to think that having random roommates to dorm with was fun, but then I had to room with an early bird sports jock and our lives are not compatible AT ALL. I feel bad for keeping him up so late so I hope he doesn't find it offensive I get him a sleeping mask and ear plugs🥲
Every time I go to my 1/week Journalism class, I am reminded about how much happier I could’ve been in college if I didn’t waste so much time trying to make Computer/Data Science work 😭
I find the evolution of League lingo to be so interesting.
WDYM my team can say “I’m jerking them off bot lane, we have prio for drag” and everyone knows what it means 😭
Special thanks to our coaches

@briszee
for holding down the fort here😁
I'm glad to be able to look back at this pocket of time later and feel fond of it.
The NACL promotion tournament starts today! It's a high-stakes, official Riot tournament in which the top 4 teams from open qualifiers and the bottom 2 teams from NACL fight for 2 NACL spots.

moots: if u enjoy pro, check out these games. More details below:
Play Spring OQ1, lose in Quarterfinals
➡️ team that beat us gets disqualified (sadly)
➡️ rejoin and win 🏆 OQ1
➡️ Promote into NACL
I will always be grateful for how things perfectly fell into place for me to be able to play in NACL 🥰
My friend said he would buy this for me if we (Blue Otter) win our first NACL series vs Supernova.😵💫
Too much is on the line now for us to not
