1-2 (Hurts Just a Little Bit) - 100 Thieves 2021 Spring LCS Week 3

Uh oh - 100T blundered a week. Jordan and Cole aren’t TOO worried, but in the quiet lonely hours they admit into their pillows that they ARE worried a bit. The dads still believe that 100 Thieves is a contender, but this weekend exposed some areas for improvement. And hey, 2nd place in the LCS is sure better than where we’ve been in previous years, right? This episode of the podcast lays out some of the drafting and champ pool woes facing the team, some of the ways our team needs to find its footing, and looks ahead to what could be a pretty challenging week for the Ssumday Guardians. Protect him at all costs, boys.


Listen here.

TIMESTAMPS:

0:00:00 - Intro

0:03:26 - IMT: Let’s let Rell through pt. 8. Playing it slooooow. Getting outganked. Lose fights win game

0:15:20 - TSM: A bad draft or the worst draft? Letting Rell through pt. 9. Is (100T player) actually bad at (insert champ)? Live by the poke, die by the poke.

0:34:13 - GG: Picking Rell pt. 1. Do we gank anymore (no.)? Playing a strong look into a prepared counter-comp. Huhi giveth, Huhi taketh away.

0:56:54 - General Topics: Are we “expanding the playstyle”? Ssumday’s struggles. A look at champions played (aka champion pools). Quick reminder: we’re 6-3 and 2nd after first round robin.

1:12:49 - Listener Takes: Don’t panic. How we bounce back is what’s important. We are missing out on meta picks. Criticism of the champ pool is exaggerated.

1:22:16 - Predictions: another 3-0???

1:31:22 - Outro

100T Puts IMT (and Guilhoto) in Their Place, Oh and C9 Too - LCS Summer 2021 Week 4 Recap

100Talk got everything we wanted for our 3rd podcast birthday: A banger Rec League, lots of fan content, gifted subs, and another 3-0 week from 100 Thieves. This LCS team is turning heads and making everyone take notice (Upcomer especially, amirite???). With 100T Finally being considered the top LCS contender, Jordan and Cole delight in the amazing position the team is in. Though the early game still needs to be shored up, the squad is lawnmowering through the rest of the field. The dads take this opportunity to discuss whether an LCS title or a reasonable performance at Worlds would mean more, debate which roster moves Reapered could be hinting at making and what their significance would be, and monologue about what it has meant for this team to hit its stride in such a quick time. Plus - some bonus conversation about 100T’s new Foundations apparel line of always available clothing for fans. There’s never been a better time to be a fan of 100T.  Listen here.

100T’s Strategy Struggles - 100 Thieves LCS Spring 2023 Week 5 Recap

A win is a win, and a one and one is a one and one. But things still don’t feel all the way right at the 100 Thieves [redacted] Compound. The dads discuss how beating Team Liquid doesn’t mean quite as much as it used to, and while we were more competitive against FlyQuest, we ultimately made too many mistakes (one) and so we weren’t able to win against the dominant team. Cole and Jordan spend a lot of time breaking down the stats and eyeball test for rookies Tenacity and Busio and check them against their preseason expectations, while others suggest the blame for the team’s lackluster performance may rest with the veterans. Are we officially on the Department of Transportation’s Bad Teamfighting Team Watchlist? Azael says yes. The dads say…LISTEN AND FIND OUT!
