Cruising to Another 2-0 - 100 Thieves LCS Summer 2022 Week 6 Recap

08/02/22 • 74 min

A 2-0 weekend is a 2-0 weekend, but not all are created equal. Good thing the 100 Thieves fanbase is a gnarled and seasoned group that won’t overreact to any uncharacteristically sloppy games, right? Right. The dads lead the family discussion on what admittedly wasn’t the cleanest set of matches from 100T, taking note of the confidence level of this team and the mental benefits of winning games when you’re not at your best. They play the new game “Should We Play It” with some of the new picks the squad brought out against Dignitas and Immortals, and talk about the ways Ssumday is both underappreciated and duly credited by the LCS community. Plus, as always, there are tons of listener takes and questions to go through of varying spice levels. It’s another fun one with Jordan and Cole.

Reassertion of 100T's Dominance - 100 Thieves LCS Summer 2022 Week 5 Recap

The most convincing 100T wins come when ̶n̶o̶b̶o̶d̶y̶ the analysts don’t expect them. The Thieves smoked both the scrappy upstart NA underdog org AND Evil Geniuses this weekend, leading analysts everywhere to finally *checks notes* keep the conversation status quo...

On a serious note, this squad looks to be hitting on all cylinders as we head into the final stretch of the regular season. Jordan and Cole break down how the pieces are all starting to fall into place: high quality drafts, tight gameplay from individual players, and good meta read. The dads also dive into a short but explosive appearance from Closer on the LCS Lounge, and address point by point what the kral had to say. All of this served with the usual heaping helping of listener questions/takes, common sense from Jordan, questionable analysis from Cole, and traditional sports analogies.

This 100Talk is a banger. Jump in.
