An Unexpected Loss and the Tendency to Overreact - 100T LCS Lock In Group Stage Recap

100T’s LCS Lock In started out as planned, but quickly took an unexpected turn with the subbing in of Tenacity and the subsequent destruction at the hands of an anemic FlyQuest squad. If the dads were in a tough position trying to draw any conclusions about the 2022 Thieves before, things just got a lot more complicated. They discuss the merits of Tenacity criticism and the strategy of a 6-man roster, as well as the meaning of a veteran Ssumday presence on a reigning LCS championship team. They also reluctantly play blame game with early missteps and field listener takes (including the return of caster records courtesy of Austin Beck!). 100Talk is already in full swing, so come on down.
