100T's Season Comes to an End - 100 Thieves Worlds 2021 Day 5 Recap

100 Thieves’ remarkable LCS season has come to a close with a 3-3 finish in the group stage at Worlds, just missing an advance to semifinals. However, as one last parting gift, the squad systematically dismantled EDG to prove that the Thieves should still be seen as an international threat. Jordan and Cole talk about nerves, the growth of the squad over the split and over this tournament, and contextualize a 3-3 against some of the best League of Legends teams on Earth. The dads also weigh in on whether roster moves should be in the team’s plans for 2022, field listener questions and takes, and express their gratitude for the players, staff, and fans that made this the most memorable 100T season we’ve ever had. It was a great year, 100 Thieves fans. We’ll remember it forever. Listen here.

Weighed Down by NA's Baggage - 100 Thieves Worlds 2021 Day 3 Recap

After picking up a much-needed win against Detonation FocusMe, 100 Thieves failed to overcome T1 in a crucial group stage match. Now, the squad faces a second round robin where they likely need to go at least 2-1 to have a chance to survive. The dads have a special mid-week meeting to talk about beloved topics such as What The Heck Is Going On With These Drafts and Can We Perform On The Big Stage When It Really Matters. They also observe what appear to be some quite nervous younger players and debate what can be done to finally land a LeBlanc chain. The darkness may be coming. It’s shadow time, buddy. One more run through the group will decide all.

Taking On the Champions - 100 Thieves Worlds 2021 Day 1 Recap

100 Thieves’ 2021 Worlds journey has begun with an expected loss to EDG. Despite an end of game stat sheet that looks pretty bleak, things may not be as they seem. Jordan and Cole explain why they’re not too worried about today’s performance (*cough cough DRAFT cough*) and why despite missing a LOT of MF ults, FBI looked reasonably convincing during his rookie Worlds debut. Along the way, the dads opine on 100T’s meta read, strategy, answer listener questions, and put the proper framing on what was a weird day for fans of our beloved squad.
