For Dust Thou Art, And Unto Dust Shalt Thou Return - 100 Thieves Finish 5th - Spring 2020 LCS Split Recap

In what turned out to be a coinflip series, 100T was eliminated by TSM to finish 5th place in the LCS for Spring 2020. However, the intensely close match was full of surprises: more Ssumday slippage, a Ryoma pop-off, and Cody Sun scorching. Cole and Jordan discuss salty runbacks, a new midlaner making his case for starting in NA, and the daunting task of improving a better-than-expected squad with limited options on the table.

TIMESTAMPS:

6:30 - Game 1: Win draft lose game
16:57 - Game 2: The salty runback, Ryoma is mighty
33:43 - Game 3: Ssumday continues to struggle, awaken the Cody
44:54 - Game 4: Everyone has a bad game and TSM is near perfect
50:56 - Game 5: Bjergsen breaks our hearts, again

57:37 - Reflecting on the split. What’s the team’s narrative?

1:03:32 - Listener Takes/Questions: We saw improvement all around, minus support. Do we expect changes, and what changes do we want? What will need to change for Ssumday to stay? What’s next for Ryoma? Limits that Stunt and Ryoma champ pools place on the team.

1:23:04 - Closing thoughts on spring split

100T Takes the Nukelear Option - 100 Thieves LCS Spring 2023 Week 6 Recap

100T made big news with their decision to fire head coach Kaas and to let Nukeduck step up as interim head LCS coach after the team turned in what is likely its worst week of League of Legends in the org’s history. Given the presence of established, outspoken veterans on the squad (who are currently underperforming expectations), a lot of fans are crying scapegoat. Jordan and Cole think through what we know and what we don’t know about the situation, and discuss the legitimacy of the changes based on the balance. They also lay out the path for the remainder of the season and realize (in real time) that this is a team that is dancing close to catastrophe - will the Nukeduck change be the Bible in the middle to make sure it’s not TOO close??? Listen here. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00:00 - Intro 0:02:37 - Last week’s games :( 0:13:35 - Kaas is out 0:34:17 - Implications for the rest of the split 0:47:39 - Listener Takes 1:19:46 - Predictions 1:23:27 - Outro ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ FOLLOW THE 100TAL...

100T Finishes 2nd in Summer Split - 100 Thieves LCS Summer 2022 Week 8 Recap

A miraculous thing happened this weekend: 100 Thieves dropped a game to FlyQuest and for once nobody gave a sermon preaching about why this means the team is a fraud. That means Jordan and Cole have less work to do on this end of regular season edition of 100Talk. The dads follow the thread of what we learned through 100T’s super week games and how the Thieves have learned to have a plan after getting punched in the mouth. They talk draft diffing quality opponents and debate which of the Thieves get All-LCS nods. And in light of the recent white-hot success of the org’s esports, discuss the winning culture that has been built at the CashApp Compound. Don’t forget - the dads always have time for their children, so listener takes and questions abound. It’s a good time to be a 100T fan, and a good time to 100Talk. Listen here.
