Reassertion of 100T's Dominance - 100 Thieves LCS Summer 2022 Week 5 Recap

The most convincing 100T wins come when  ̶n̶o̶b̶o̶d̶y̶  the analysts don’t expect them. The Thieves smoked both the scrappy upstart NA underdog org AND Evil Geniuses this weekend, leading analysts everywhere to finally *checks notes* keep the conversation status quo… On a serious note, this squad looks to be hitting on all cylinders as we head into the final stretch of the regular season. Jordan and Cole break down how the pieces are all starting to fall into place: high quality drafts, tight gameplay from individual players, and good meta read. The dads also dive into a short but explosive appearance from Closer on the LCS Lounge, and address point by point what the kral had to say. All of this served with the usual heaping helping of listener questions/takes, common sense from Jordan, questionable analysis from Cole, and traditional sports analogies. This 100Talk is a banger. Jump in. Listen here. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00:00 - Intro 0:02:33 - 100T vs TSM 0:15:45 - 100T vs EG 0:27:05...

Twiddling Thumbs and 100T's Summer Split - 100 Thieves LCS Summer 2022 Week 4 Recap

100 Thieves opted to extend the LCS break an extra day and come back rested and ready for their Sunday game. The 100Talk dads are forced, however, to acknowledge that there was apparently a game played on Saturday. Cole and Jordan explain why they are not worried about the occasional slip up from the otherwise solid Thieves and why fans should be able to brush off a silly game here and there. They also talk about the emergence of the newest in CS technology, Abbedagge and a surprising Closer Poppy pick that went extremely well. Please buckle up for some complaining about why we are disrespected by analysts and broadcast though, we can’t help it. Listen here.

Haters and doubters were out in full force last week, but 100 Thieves rallied for a very convincing 2-0 weekend that included a boring, yet calculated win against TL and a birthday bash for Ssumday against IMT. Jordan and Cole revel in the glory of victory, with their trust in Abbedagge validated (at least for now). They also analyze the playstyle shift the team has made and its parallel to the 2018 Thieves - are we new, old, AND improved? The dads seem to think so…. Listen here.
