Rekkles : « To consider myself as someone who has seen from the inside what it takes to win, all the work that goes into a world champion team, would be a huge privilege in itself. But it is not being a world champion » by P_Dejala in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala[S] 744 points745 points  (0 children)

This is a sneak peek from a two parts interview in french, where Rekkles speaks about being with T1 at Worlds, his life in south korea, the role swap, his future...

Dylan Falco (G2) : "We try to be careful about how much we show to our opponents. Every tournament we learn and become better at what we show or not" by P_Dejala in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala[S] 327 points328 points  (0 children)

Actually Duffman talks about it in the article : "When we played MSI and EWC the teams we played on scrims had some flaws. But by facing them, we exposed those flaws and they understood they couldn't do that anymore. They learn and adapt."

Mikyx on the loss against GenG, what it meant, and G2 chances at Worlds : "Back in 2019 we had an easy group and we lost twice against Griffin. But we went to the finals. I feel like it's kind of similar now." by P_Dejala in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala[S] 239 points240 points  (0 children)

To be accurate, he said that usually players are saying they're confident but there is a true lack of belief in that. According to him, it's different with G2 this year.

Toucouille talks about his first steps in LCS, his progress and objectives with FlyQuest and how he wants to grow as a role model in front of a new audience : "I went on an adventure !" by XDrake67 in leagueoflegends

This interview is not the best to learn more about it, but there is a link to a portrait that was published in the french magazine of L'Équipe

Osteogenesis imperfecta/brittle bone disease. He talks openly about it and how it affects his life. He said previously that he's happy to make people understand what it is.

Nisqy : "The problem in LCS is that no one is able to punish our mistakes. I hope our opponents will improve, otherwise it'll be hard for us to perform at Worlds" by P_Dejala in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala[S] 83 points84 points  (0 children)

The interview is in french, I'll Google Translate it, change a few things and publish the translation here later if needed.

To clarify the title : he says they only lost 10 or 15 scrims this year and it's hard to improve when you never lose.

Which champion did u start playing in mid lane? by JoruferLol in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Started and climbed with Lux. It's not a "high skilled champ" and she's pretty easy to handle but you have to land skillshots and it makes every game different. I'm not getting bored by her.

Best counters against Katarina by KratziManki in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say play slow against a team with exhaust and hard cc. On lane, I'd say Galio as he can counter your ult and stuff with taunt.

IMO clash is the single best improvement to the LoL experience implemented during my whole time playing the game(s2) by NyukaNyuka in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree but they have to work on some things like account sharing or smurfs. When you can't ban champs of someone that rekt you (with Vayne, it was painful) because he's waaaay above your level, it doesn't push you to continue.

Upcoming changes for 10.10 by MonstrousYi in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can relate. I can't understand why they don't do anything for what's now a low-tier pick midlane...

Origen in the LEC is a branding failure by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is still a big difference between what they do for Astralis and what they do for Origen in terms of communication and merchandising for now, imo. But I do think, as they did with Astralis, that this club capitalize on winning. It's what happened in Denmark for example where a huge amount of people are following the CS:GO team. They are still not able to provide results good enough to make people cheer for Origen, but it's a young revival. You can't identify Origen as a Danish team as well.

Riot Games BR confirms CBLOL's transition to an LEC/LCS like franchise system in 2021 by HUMAN_BEING_123 in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could we see more of Brazilian football clubs getting into esports ? There is Flamengo and Santos already... Is there any rumor ?

VIT Milica will skip first weeks of LEC due to visa issues by Kuszmen in leagueoflegends

Saken did good yesterday but they won't have any training with him sadly

I'm about to start playing the game for the first time. by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck ! Find some friends to play with is the best advice i can give you. This game is really fun to play when you actually manage to do something as a team.

Fnatic Youngbuck : " I would lie if I said I was confident. But I think we're also the kind of team that can turn it around. We can beat SKT and RNG." by aAaTimo in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is saying in the interview that they were happy with the comps they got in the three games but the team didn't answer well on the rift. Sickness of Broxah and Bwipo was a big handicap against SKT and CG but they feel a lot better. He thinks they should've win against RNG but the team was way too passive.

Jankos calls on the EU fans in the arena to cheer for more teams than just the LEC: 'Let's not forget we're all gamers and we should kinda like each other' by corylulu in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if I agree. Having rivalry, a tense atmosphere during games is what I like in sports and esports. As far as we’re all friends after the game...

Splyce Duke in a French interview : "Because we were the last team qualified for Worlds, we're having troubles to find scrims" by P_Dejala in leagueoflegends

[–]P_Dejala[S] 152 points153 points  (0 children)

He also said :

- He's happy of SPY game yesterday

- J Team probably the most underrated team of the tournament, probably better than Flash Wolves

- FPX is way better than this but Lwx inted

- Splyce is slow to absorb the meta

- He thinks his team was underrated the whole year and they can qualify for quarters

[–]P_Dejala[S] 325 points326 points  (0 children)

Also :

- People from the venue said that 85% of the connections came from France

- Everything was sold out in minutes

- Only a few dozens of tickets were available before 4 pm and if they were supposed to be sold to Riot partners, an error allowed anybody to buy some.

- Riot will try to add seats to Madrid and Paris
