Declaration of Disagreement - 100 Thieves LCS Spring 2020 Week 5 Recap

Cole and Jordan have been talking the talk and now it’s time to talk the talk. Are you considering that Ryoma might actually be bad and not worth an import slot? Does the apparel drop reveal leave you feeling confused and uncertain? We’ve got strong opinions on these topics (and others) that we hope you’ll consider as you try to find your way through week 5 of Spring 2020. Listen here . TIMESTAMPS: 3:38 - 100T vs TSM: Getting hit and hitting back, windows vs walls, pivotal moments and solo kills 34:07 - 100T vs GG: Ssumday ruins Hauntzer’s day, Meteos delivers early, Stunt hits his windows, Ryoma actually just gets his own section see below 40:33 - The Ryoma Segment: Twitter takes, stats assessment and discussion, assessing his overall progress as developmental talent, what he does well and what needs to be better 1:01:10 - Cole’s Apparel Take: Cole helps shine a light on what this drop is, what it isn’t, and how 100 Thieves is positioning itself for the future. Also, it’s ok...

We Are What We Thought We Were - 100 Thieves LCS Spring 2020 Week 4 Recap

Cole and Jordan revisit an old friend: the Big Sad. With surprising deficits showing up in unexpected places on the roster, there’s a lot to try and make sense of at this early stage of the season. We knew there would be bumps in the road and things that would need to be worked on, but we honestly didn’t expect for the list to look this way going into week 5. We take some time to unpack it and talk about what we need to see moving forward. Listen here . TIMESTAMPS: 3:41 - 100T vs DIG: Soraka-Olaf wins these, a missed Lee Sin Q, Stunt underwhelms on Naut, Ryoma holds against Froggen 25:13 - 100T vs FLY: Draft challenges continue, the major Meteos problem, one player (cough Ssumday) can only carry so much, Stunt plays a different type of game, Ryoma holds against POE 1:05:39 - Listener Takes: When does team go from developing to not good enough -@Khronos, replace Stunt with Breezyyy? 1:19:12 - Wrap-up: Trust The Papa campaign results, Sir Radley’s Lore Lesson Follow 100T...

The Civilest War, Keep it 100, 100 Thieves Take Down Team Liquid, Fall to Immortals

*** BUY OFFICIAL #TRUSTTHEPAPA MERCH HERE: *** https://rb.gy/xd6cn5 100% of the proceeds will go to Mental Health America, Papa's charity of choice. Order by 2/14/20. With Jordan on the injured reserve list, Cole avoids venturing out solo (hey, I’m a duo laner after all) by calling in Zach from League Leaders to discuss the Civilest War - our rivalry with Dignitas - ahead of this weekend’s action. After Zach leaves, Cole calls upon the 100Talkers to share their takes on this 100T squad’s progress over the split in a special episode of Keep It 100. We field a LOT of questions about Ryoma, some about Stunt, and take the community’s temperature on just how much we are trusting the papa.

PapaSmithy Interview - Start of LCS Season, Evaluating Progress, Trust the Papa

*** BUY OFFICIAL #TRUSTTHEPAPA MERCH HERE: *** https://rb.gy/xd6cn5 100% of the proceeds will go to Mental Health America, Papa's charity of choice. Order by 2/14/20. Having launched the #TrustThePapa movement for 100 Thieves fans, 100Talk hosts Cole and Jordan ventured out to LA for a visit to the 100 Thieves Cash App Compound. PapaSmithy was kind enough to sit down with the guys to talk about what it's been like to transition into the LCS season as GM instead of caster, how he's evaluating player progress this year, and to announce the launch of official #TrustThePapa merch - a campaign to raise money for Mental Health America. Listen here . TIMESTAMPS: 0:40 - Transitioning into first split as GM 5:00 - Evaluating Ryoma's performance, what Papa would like to see from him going forward 9:10 - What fans should look for to indicate improvement and progress in the long term 14:05 - 100 Next (100X) - Goals and plans behind the program 18:46 - #TrustThePapa - w...

Bring the Buff LA, Slow but Actual Improvement

Still jet lagged and airport sick from their travels to LA, Cole and Jordan power through and return for another episode of 100Talk. We #BroughtTheBuff to empower Ssumday’s magical 2v1 encore and a much-needed win against CLG. Not even the 100Talk buff could take down the mighty C9, though, who seem destined to again (fail to make it out of groups) place a banner in the rafters. The guys discuss what they’re looking to see improved from the players, plus answer listener questions and make good on their promise to bless (read: curse) your lives with lore readings. Listen here . TIMESTAMPS: 2:41 - 100Talk Bring the Buff LA, LA trip reflections and insightful considerations 8:00 - 100T vs CLG: We #BroughtTheBuff, the solo kill that nearly was, inverting our dragon fortunes, how much does a win against 0-4 CLG mean? 26:58 - 100T vs C9: Ssumday plays Aatrox but maybe he shouldn’t have, we get punched and we punch back, C9 is a monster and who can stop them 43:20 - General topics:...
