Oh No, Not Again - 100 Thieves LCS Spring 2023 Week 4 Recap

An extremely sad and surprising 0-3 was turned in by 100 Thieves this weekend, and boy does it hit different this time around. In a matter of two weeks the squad went from looking ahead of schedule and a potential title contender, to looking anemic and lost. Jordan and Cole call the 100Kids together to compile a litany of complaints and evaluate which ones have merit and which ones will pass. The dads also break down the possible ways out from this mess and encourage, as ever, patience. Common 100Talk episode ready to be enjoyed by all! Listen here. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00:00 - Intro 0:04:48 - Regression to the mean or a sign of more troubles to come? 0:09:31 - Is this the classic 100T round robin 1 slump? 0:20:29 - Meta woes and Bjergsen questions 0:26:21 - Have we been (gasp) solved? 0:45:40 - Listener Takes 1:13:39 - Predictions 1:19:26 - Outro ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ FOLLOW THE 100TALK DADS: Twitter ► https://twitter.com/100talkpod Twitch ► https://www.twitch.tv/100talkpod Discord ►...

Doublelift University and the 100T Freshmen - 100 Thieves LCS Spring 2023 Week 3 Recap

An important weekend for 100 Thieves passed with a 1-1 result including a valuable win over Team Liquid (seriously, do we ever lose to them anymore?) and a not-so-competitive loss to FlyQuest. The microscope is on the 100T rookies as they continue their very public development in the LCS. Tenacity turns in an almost-good-enough-to-carry performance, while Busio seems to be having a bit more trouble finding his footing. Cole and Jordan dive into their takes on both, while also discussing the pressure cooker that is the Doublelift content machine. The big question now is how much progress can be made in the next few weeks. Are these Thieves for real? Only the dads can tell…. Listen here.

Feeling Strangely Fine - 100 Thieves LCS Spring 2023 Week 2 Recap

A clean and confident 2-0 weekend against some admittedly less-than-lethal opposition has left the 100Talk dads in a great mood. They clock the progress of 100T’s rookies and veterans against expectations (spoiler alert - we’re ahead of schedule), take some time to memorialize Solo after his life was taken from him by Tenacity, plus discuss the effect of Doublelift’s perspective and content on the team as a whole. Cole and Jordan are chomping at the bit to get further into this split to see what this team is really made of, but for now they are satisfied answering listener questions, taking liberal sips of the Rip, and getting their esports viewing out of the way before the weekend.
