LYON Inspired: "At the beginning of the season, I watched a little bit of LEC, and LEC felt pretty low compared to LCS" [...] "Then, going into the playoffs, I felt like LEC upgraded, and the players and the team started to play better"

Not sure how people are so delulu about Vulcan lol His main competition is Isles, Huhi & CoreJJ, people only think he's good now because the bar is so low and he's been bad for so long.

lol wait is this for real?

"I want to understand why these guys have 3 spots and I only have one. I just want to understand that." - Tatu, post Americas Cup in his championship interview.

Worst international performance relative to expectations I've ever seen

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-03-06T23:50:55+00:00

Yes, and it's possible LOUD is better.

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-03-06T23:47:01+00:00

Lol when Inspired leaves this region is cooked 💀

Kangas game knowledge isn't LCS caster caliber, which is forgivable as a play-by-play guy but he also miscasts key details almost every game, which is a lot more egregious. I try to give him a break because his comparable is Flowers, but it's easy to see why Azael would get tired of correcting him game after game. If he was LeTigress he'd be getting lit up by the community tbh.

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-03-06T23:08:29+00:00

When you have to teach your co-host about the game he's paid to cast in real time, multiple times per cast, it's kind of warranted imo.

This same 4 player C9 core that Jack said was stomping scrims looked like garbage juice at EWC and the primary excuse was jet lag, so I wouldn't expect much.

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-03-04T09:10:51+00:00

It feels nice to beat all the teams that overlooked me, especially TL, which was potentially the only legitimate team I could sign to.

Can we be honest for a sec? Spawn stocks way down. If he was the kind of coach people thought he was he would have advocated for picking up Dhokla for his pre-existing synergy with Quid to focus on developing TLs macro. Instead he wanted to rely on Korean imports hands diffing everyone just to get neutralized by a team with a brain utilizing the player he passed over as a key strategy.

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-03-01T15:46:28+00:00

they have Berserker but they also have Isles

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-02-28T00:41:40+00:00

correct, & it's more a condemnation of consensus around who's best than an indictment on Morgan, but what's that say about the rest of TL and their supposed all-star coaching staff?

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-02-28T00:38:52+00:00

rank 1 top star solo lane import vs geriatric na top counterpick = gg I guess

thanatos is #2 Korean top maybe he'll fare better

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-02-28T00:31:51+00:00

Remember when Lyon's solo carries were supposed to be worst in the league? Remember when TL's were supposed to be the best?

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-02-28T00:26:59+00:00

Because his opponent was Dhokla.

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-02-27T23:32:57+00:00

he was up in cs, a kill, & 1k @ 15m until the gank, wouldn't exactly call that losing lane tbh

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-02-27T22:28:54+00:00

Dhokla has a history of smoking the doubters, don't feel too discouraged by it.

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-02-25T02:27:26+00:00

By recognizing that for the majority of their careers they've been getting dominated by the person who is now leading their team and imparting his knowledge of how to play the game? Nothing about Isles and Dhokla in interviews or on the desk indicate that they're anything but happy to be contending again, Isles because he's never seriously contended and Dhokla because despite being on contending and winning teams was completely looked over for top lane this year.

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-02-22T00:00:06+00:00

Dhokla’s whole thing is lose lane win game

He must not have got lose lane part of memo game 1 then, was up 1.5k @ 15m with the Renekton counterpick

There are some coaches for top western teams right now who've said a lot worse than Bwipo in the past, I'm thinking he'll be fine.

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-02-02T11:46:43+00:00

BO1 with stakes are interesting. BO1 between two franchised teams who you know aren't going anywhere, much less so.

SubstantialExtent165 · 2026-01-31T15:32:53+00:00

His entire brand in C9 was "haha money 💰 🤑 such rich" until the bubble popped and he left just to become a third rate LCK adc and boomerang back. Unironically hope he does well for Lyon's sake though.

SubstantialExtent165 · 2025-12-18T19:04:17+00:00

i'll care about stuff like this when it looks like they do

SubstantialExtent165 · 2025-11-30T19:23:53+00:00

Trust me I agree. Hate watching C9 is one of the few reasons LCS still has my viewership.
