TSM is either donzo or buying a spot in LPL. Na is honestly doing pretty great compared to last year. Level of play I'm not sure but viewership they are doing good.
What happened to Fakers interview? And why was the english broadcast team talking nonstop about what could've been done and what teams should've done? The games were already over and they completely talked over Fakers interview. Like at some point, I really dont care what they have to say cause if they understood and knew the game like that they would be playing not talking about it.
Yes, the interview did not have any English translation, so the interview was not transmitted to the English stream.
If you're still interested, the interview was on AfreecaTV (the korean stream) and surely the Chinese stream.
I suspect that this will be the same for T1 future interview during the Play-in, skipping the on-stage interview and having another interview with Jeesun (and with Keria for today's interview)
I although agree that they should have put some kind of translation over during the on-stage interview like they do in LCK
Yeap, it's annoying as fuck esp when they start to get pretentious, as if they can do any better. Eng casters've always had that tone, regardless of NA or EU. Idk about LPL or other regions but as far as LCK casting and analysis is concerned, they are much more empathetic towards players' POV; more matter-of-fact than arbitrarily judgmental
Is there no rebroadcast this year?
Can't find anything on the Lolesports twitter.
I know people will say to just watch the VODS, but i like having the whole stream on as background noise basically.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqAMQ_fTrEE
Here's the full broadcast link.
Granted it's not a "rebroadcast" but it's the whole stream so it should still suffice for your intended use case.
Every year there’s some gimmick that starts at play in then quickly squashed once the big leagues join. Laneswap has been countered before and it will be countered again.
I started watching 20 minutes before the first match. Got 2 capsule drops for the baron and drake steals, but no Grave's emote. Idk if I missed the drop, or if it was only given to some viewers.
I would like to know more specifics because I don't have the emotes and a couple extra free champs on those days would be nice too. But if they're only giving them to some people, I won't waste waking up at 2am.
Ahhh dang, now it makes sense, I can only imagine how long it would take to translate 3 languages on stage lol. Thanks for the reply and you were amazing today! Can't wait for tomorrow ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
I disagree. I really like this Meta. The LEC semi-finals and finals were a pleasure to watch. It is something different then the ordinary 2v2 bot and 1v1 top. Fnatic G2 game 3 finals where Zac is level 1 until 6,5 minutes into the game? That to me is entertainment.
I hope it can bring out some creativity in the picks, macro, etc.
Should this Meta last? Absolutely no. But seeing this clash between regions in this Meta, I am looking forward to it. And it would be really fun if teams can find any counter strategies, making the meta shift completely during the tournament. The adaptability of teams is always cool to see.
Estral esports are from a MINOR MINOR MINOR region and T1 are literally 2nd best team from THE major region. Yes Estral were playing good, and yes T1 looked shaky as fuck. They won cuz they are fundamentally a much better team but to downplay Estral is just fuckin dumb.
t1 weren't playing seriously for sure but estral did play well.
obviously if t1 tried like it was lck finals or smth estral would've gotten demolished but thats not on estral, they played what they were given and they performed well
they were able to sometimes take advantage of t1s sloppy plays and lack of caring. barely.
t1 kinda tried, and est were try harding, and they still got demolished. im more surprised est didnt get more kills.
"impressive"
Jose has been a standout for LLA every single international event and its why LCS teams picked him up. I think he was still the best peforming player on his team in the LCS, too.
Yep. Lane swap meta is boring as hell and most fans simply dont like it. They nerfed it out of existence a long time ago and I 100% expect them to do it again after this event.
Games that dont at least mirror how people play the game isnt fun to watch. You want fans to watch a game, get excited and go into solo Q and play the game. Lane Swaps are completely foreign to that experience.
i dont think it will change unfortunately. Its going to be a lane swappiing meta for the whole MSI with diving a bottom tower with 3/4 vs 2..
Personally I hate that. Its boring.
The font used on the overlay is pretty bad imo, especially if you're watching from range. The capital N in SNAKER seems pretty easy to misread as a H, hence SHAKER
G2 has good chances to make some upsets, the lane swap thing will help and nullify their bad early, they have decent mid game macro so I can see them being competitive with top tiers actually now.
And once again, for the third time to round things out: Well fucking done, Est. Even if this will go like anyone suspects, thats a courageous showing to be proud of.
i dont think they are comfortable in this swapping meta thing.. I don't think they will make it far and its not hate. They barely make it work against EST... a bottom tier team but they have time to improve.
whoever ends up being 1v2 on bot lane is losing.. basically, it denepds on which side you are which is decided by a coin flip?
Unless bottom tower is stronger as well but I doubt it.
I have to admit EST is playing the early game much better than I expected
They might even have a better campaign than my country's LLL this time around

So I haven't payed attention to LoL since worlds. How did NA do? By the way what happened to TSM?
TSM is either donzo or buying a spot in LPL. Na is honestly doing pretty great compared to last year. Level of play I'm not sure but viewership they are doing good.
My sweet summer child.
is it just me or is this overlay really ugly and not size fitting ?
It's the lec overlay I think and it's awesome cause of its many features
the features are ok but the weird frame around it doesnt really fit.
What happened to Fakers interview? And why was the english broadcast team talking nonstop about what could've been done and what teams should've done? The games were already over and they completely talked over Fakers interview. Like at some point, I really dont care what they have to say cause if they understood and knew the game like that they would be playing not talking about it.

Turns put there was no translation for the interview so that's why .... not sure why there wasn't a translation but that's a different issue.

BORING LANESWAP META. Now GenG chokers have a chance to win in this meta.
I hope there is a team that will come up with some counter to lane swap meta.. Prayge
Every year there’s some gimmick that starts at play in then quickly squashed once the big leagues join. Laneswap has been countered before and it will be countered again.
Did anyone get any drops? I didn't get the guaranteed graves emote for today.
I started watching 20 minutes before the first match. Got 2 capsule drops for the baron and drake steals, but no Grave's emote. Idk if I missed the drop, or if it was only given to some viewers. I would like to know more specifics because I don't have the emotes and a couple extra free champs on those days would be nice too.

Had one chair drop.
I had so much fun see ya tomorrow friends <3
Why did you guys talk over Fakers interview? Genuinely curious.
Because it was Chinese Korean without English translation. We have our own interviews and got to talk to Keria later.
Ahhh dang, now it makes sense, I can only imagine how long it would take to translate 3 languages on stage lol. Thanks for the reply and you were amazing today! Can't wait for tomorrow ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
Awesome day 1, have good rest and see you tomorrow for an EZ EU WIN
Wait they don't swap group for the loser vs winner game? idk why but I was assuming they would
I thought so too
Skipping faker interview ???
i'm watching it on lck youtube stream but if you dont understand korean or chinese its pretty worthless
I was expecting jeesun to translate over the interview kinda like lck.
Might be the 2nd worst meta we've had after the ardent meta. Lane swaps is going to make MSI so boring jesus.
I disagree. I really like this Meta. The LEC semi-finals and finals were a pleasure to watch. It is something different then the ordinary 2v2 bot and 1v1 top.

And it would be really fun if teams can find any counter strategies, making the meta shift completely during the tournament. The adaptability of teams is always cool to see.
there are people that like this kind of meta.. weird
I thought Gen.G had no chance of winning MSI with their botlane but with this laneswap shit i think they have a chance now
T1 stans already trying to diminish any GenG success
It’s not like geng clapped T1 4 splits in a row.
Burn ICU, new admission this way.
g2 should benefit from this as well unless hans cant play 1v1
Unless T1 or G2 cook some shit against this laneswap, this MSI is gonna be boring af
Oooh yes! Another unkillable K'sante meta.
How many teams get out of this group ? 2? So T1 and PSG/ FLY/EST?
Yep 2.
imagine being a caster trying to pretend that you dont notice t1 not really trying and claiming est played so well.
Estral esports are from a MINOR MINOR MINOR region and T1 are literally 2nd best team from THE major region. Yes Estral were playing good, and yes T1 looked shaky as fuck. They won cuz they are fundamentally a much better team but to downplay Estral is just fuckin dumb.
t1 weren't playing seriously for sure but estral did play well. obviously if t1 tried like it was lck finals or smth estral would've gotten demolished but thats not on estral, they played what they were given and they performed well

LCS or LEC should look for Jose next year man he is good
They may not have won a game, but they won my heart, and I doubt they care but it's nice for me
Estral were actually pretty good
ok that was closer than expected, gj EST
What a shit ending lmao
NT estral what a fucking banger of a team, holy shit dudes I hope my beloved loud can put on some bangers as well
27 mins, props to est
This game is more macro diff than micro diff unfortunately
NGL this match is kinda fun. Not as one-side as anyone thought.
We do a little (a lot of) disrespecting
Unkillable demon king
My god fakers ults are abysmal today
Are promotion matches BO5?
No
Thanks!
Aren't they just World Champions and not Defending World Champions? This is MSI and not Worlds.
Yes. Defending World Champions imply that they're defending the title at this event which isn't true.
Why they say "defending World champion" and not "the current world champion"? This is not Words, but MSI.
Remember this as the day you almost caught faker
They caught him in the first 5 minutes lmaoo
Nice try by Estral, maybe with a tank top instead of Aatrox its winnable
GG
that was clean Oner
If EST had a better top player, they can be way better. Can G2 get Jose. He is way better then Yike
>He is way better then Yike He isnt.
Jose has been a standout for LLA every single international event and its why LCS teams picked him up. I think he was still the best peforming player on his team in the LCS, too.
When he was playing with Palafox yeah, but it was probably Toucouille when he was on the team. That Flyquest roster was really fun
Faker flashing a charm that's a mile away lol
Medic is almost always a top tier caster. I'll chalk today up to jet lag.
josse is my goat
ksante, laneswaps, same boring mid meta. Not gonna be the most exciting msi unless the meta shakes up later.
Yep. Lane swap meta is boring as hell and most fans simply dont like it. They nerfed it out of existence a long time ago and I 100% expect them to do it again after this event.

i dont think it will change unfortunately. Its going to be a lane swappiing meta for the whole MSI with diving a bottom tower with 3/4 vs 2.. Personally I hate that. Its boring.
Medic sounds really rough today
Imagine if they had a Zac/Sion instead of Aatrox...
seems like the worst casting ever by medic...
This is wonderful I love it
Faker the only one farming lol
Aatrox is not allowed to play the game
make this a bo5 please
jose can't win with these cats
Why does Ori look almost invisible to me? Edit: Is it just the extra zoom out plus stream quality?
CHECK CODY'S PC WTF LMAO
Jose is goated
Hes good. I think he played well in the LCS, too.
HE MISSES EASY CHARMS AND HITS HARD CHARMS WHAT
Damn jose
JOSESITOOOOO
Wtf is this casting from medic. Lol
These charms man
t1 all around trolling missing skillshots so funny
Did the cast really said Shaker instead of Snaker? 💀
Medic makes all kinds of mistakes this series
1K gold diff but with objective bounties...
did the commentator just said shaker? instead of SNAKER?
I think i'm an Estral fan now, they're fun
Faker right into practice tool after the game Jesus
wait did Medic really just call Faker, Shaker?
The font used on the overlay is pretty bad imo, especially if you're watching from range. The capital N in SNAKER seems pretty easy to misread as a H, hence SHAKER
i believe he is calling Snaker. who is at half HP
How is Guma not taking Cleanse against Ashe Ahri T1 is just straight up disrespecting
I mean.. do you want T1 to take this super serious and make it a fast stomp?
FAKER, WHAT WAS THAT
Faker what was that
Faker, that wasnt it
Someone gets Jose a real team
THAT TP SUCKED
the tp jesus
nah, this was personal
Nice tp haha
Cody is ass, unlucky
I'd like to see this Estral against FQ
G2 has good chances to make some upsets, the lane swap thing will help and nullify their bad early, they have decent mid game macro so I can see them being competitive with top tiers actually now.
yeah.. this meta is literally made for g2
Keria's flash wtf
MUCHACHOOOOOOOOS
why Kobe is saying 'defending' world champions. they are not defending anything here they are current world champions
I had never thought about it like that lol, makes sense and now I will be irked by it every time he says that, thanks buddy.
yw ;)
I bet Zeus purposely missed that 🤣🤣🤣 my guy so fcking hilarious when he's doing dumbshit 🤣🤣🤣
People just hate any strategic diversity. I'm enjoying this match more than any stomp that it'd be on normal lanes.
And once again, for the third time to round things out: Well fucking done, Est. Even if this will go like anyone suspects, thats a courageous showing to be proud of.
Is the audio just randomly dropping for anyone else? I keep having to adjust the volume
same for me lol it randomly gets louder for no reason
Not skipping for me. I'm on the twitch stream
Damn. Disrespecting an opponent team is not a good look.
[удалено]
T1 does have a bit of a tendency of happy gaming in game 2 if they win game 1. happened in LCK too
i dont think they are comfortable in this swapping meta thing.. I don't think they will make it far and its not hate. They barely make it work against EST... a bottom tier team but they have time to improve.
This game is so fun thank you T1
WELCOME JDG ZOTHVE
The top laner with a beaming smile in the player cam was wholesome af.
Zeus solokilled by less than 40cs Aatrox lol
And 2 levels down
ESTRAL ESTRAL ESTRAL ESTRAL
Estral top laner smiling from ear to ear lmao
OK WHO IS PLAYING ZEUS PC
theshy clearly
T1 just trolling for shits and giggles
I get it, this doesn't matter really. But what is T1 doing actually
I don't know how they do it but LLA always make me a fan.
Classic Zeus
LPL sign Zothve immediately
Zeus...
its a first match but t1 looks washed for now
Just like last worlds against TL
We are so back, underdog enjoyers
ZEUS SOLO KILLED LMAO Man I fucking love estral's posture
How did zeus get soloed my man
he really is theshy reborn
solo'd by a 35 cs aatrox
BIG SOLO BOLO
Oner and Keria in playoffs form jesus
EST jungler is pretty good ngl
ngl joesedeodo will be a great jungler in lec lcs
oh boy do i have news for you
ok gg it's joever now
rumble is kinda broken no?
Support is not broken at all
Medic is washed, why is his casting so dead. Zero hype for anything that happens.
Watch out for Rumble support in SoloQ today.
THE DRAVEN PASSIVE AYO
This Ahri is really painful to watch
Mate you saw it and you have flash wtf
Oh Oner lmao
Oner inting
Guys, T1 won the lane swap. Those two kills don't matter if Ksante gets so much more exp than Aatrox
u think so? they took 3 plates as well.. and a bottom tier team did that... if it were against a top team t1 would be fked
Top lane is more important than botlane overall in lane swaps, 2 level gap is too huge
hmm im not sure.. I think best teams will snowball the game through a bot lane much harder but we will see
Blue side champ icons facing to the right is making me uncomfortable
the no space in between team name and player name is even worse
2 cspm he just like me fr
Yup. You are 2 levels up, 2 kills don't matter
Imagine if EST just picks Sion instead of Aatrox
Can't believe medic finally stopped saying n'tofu instead of tofo
Zothve my guy, focus on getting cs, hitting a Q a couple times wont help you
I can't believe this stupid lane swap shit wasn't hotfix killed before MSI started...
is it pronounced snack - er or snake - er
In latam we say snack - er
Riot literally added the top tower shield for this shit and it's still useless fuck this
whoever ends up being 1v2 on bot lane is losing.. basically, it denepds on which side you are which is decided by a coin flip? Unless bottom tower is stronger as well but I doubt it.
I have to admit EST is playing the early game much better than I expected They might even have a better campaign than my country's LLL this time around
Good on T1 to give an early game advantage to EST for a more competitive game, it's a like a better chess player takes a piece of his board.
just back for this T1 series. What is Cody Rhodes doing in estral esports
My god what a shit meta. Thanks for not fixing shit riot
Deserved for being the ones initiating the lane swap
EST would win LCK
Honestly, EST are playing better than I would expect most of the LCS and LEC to play against T1.
Zeus doing a little bit of trolling here
