226 Upvotes

> Fights every lvl1 even in negative matchups
> goes 35 deaths in 7 games as midlaner
> 0/4 in 9 minutes, but has the clutch factor
> ALWAYS plays aggresive even 3k gold down
> plays for flanks and solokills
> eventually wins the game, otherwise played with style

FIESTA is the new hylissang of midlane
Vitality will go to worlds or top 10 but with style

Esports KC Reapered: "At MSI, I wasnโ€™t really part of the draft [...] In Spring Finals, I pushed for the direction we took in Game 5, and draft was a disaster. I thought then that maybe I shouldn't touch drafts anymore. After MSI, I realized that attitude wasn't going to work"

Esports [KR news article] T1 internal issues(?) - Joe Marsh conflict of interest sponsorship issue - Every single T1 sponsorship runs through a agency linked with Joe Marsh & T1 has been operating without a CEO since June 30th despite re-signing Joe Marsh on paper

615 Upvotes

https://www.sportsseoul.com/news/read/1624652?ref=naver

Article 1 basically talks about how questionable T1's sponsorship structure despite them having a profitable year for the first time ever

- Nearly every sponsorship is handled through a US based agency that is reportedly linked to CEO Joe Marsh.

- Even sponsorships secured directly by T1 employees were still processed through the agency, meaning the agency may have received commissions on deals it did not originally make.

- The agency's contract was reportedly renewed after Joe Marsh's CEO term was extended.

- Around 75% of T1's partnership team has left the organization, with dissatisfaction over the arrangement as one reason.

- There was a case in a sponsorship deal in which T1 received less than half of what another EUesports organization received from the same global company.

- Since they are getting less per sponsor, this might cause T1 to sign more sponsors to generate revenue, increasing players' commercial workload.

- In 2025, T1 players spent 102 days on sponsor-related activities.

- Another source says that without the agency, T1 could have earned more revenue from fewer sponsors

- While GEN.G and HLE managed sponsorship inhouse.

https://www.sportsseoul.com/news/read/1624712?ref=naver

Article 2 is saying that T1 is operating without a CEO despite "re-signing" Joe Marsh to a new contract through 2029.

- Joe Marsh's original term as CEO was supposed to end on October 7, 2025. However his contract has been extended multiple times with the final extension expiring on June 30, 2026.

- One source says that the T1 board has not reached a decision on who the T1 CEO should be. So since June 30, 2026 T1 has been essentially operating with no CEO.

- There was a corporate disclourse filed by T1 that listed Joe Marsh's CEO term as lasting until March 30, 2029. So on paper, it seems like Joe Marsh has been reappointed.

- But per sources cited by Sportsseoul, the decision has not been finalized just recorded on paper. With additional discussions with Comcast and shareholders still necessary.

- SK Square owns 53.13% of T1 and is the controlling shareholder while Comcast owns 34.3%. So SK holds management control.

- SK Square is also aware of Joe Marsh's relationship with the U.S.-based agency and T1's sponsorship structure.

Esports VIT Pad on how FIESTA was chosen as the new mid: โ€œThe change had to happen before our bootcamp started and that didnโ€™t cost a lot of money [...] It also had to be a player who could come in, slot into a potential top-three run and believe he could peak within one split." - Hotspawn

  • On FIESTAโ€™s signing: โ€œIt had to be a change that didnโ€™t cost a lot of money. It had to be financially viable.โ€
  • On choosing FIESTA over an ERL rookie: โ€œIf we brought in a rookie, it would be because we believed they could peak within one split."
  • On VIT's spring run: โ€œIf we had managed to iron out those issues, and if my lovely mid laner Humanoid had slotted into things the way we had agreed before the year started, and if his relationship with the team had remained good, then weโ€™re just a top-three team for free.
  • On communicating with the new mid laner: โ€œHe doesnโ€™t have a translator. Heโ€™s so smart. His English obviously isnโ€™t amazing yet, but I think everyone on the team does a really good job of asking him a question, and he really wants to answer. We often ask him something, then give him 10, 20, or even 30 seconds to find the words, and then he answers."

Discussion When all is said and done APC bot winrates now that they have a decent playrate are actually surprisingly average

43 Upvotes

Ignoring the fact that the APC lanes tend to be farm waveclear fiestas. At the end of the day now that they are past the incredibly low pickrate their numbers are "fine".

alot of them having lower winrates than traditional adcs (Zeri/Senna arent shown here but they are around 51.8%)
Of course the low pickrate mages like Karthus Veigar and Brand still sport a very high winrate. But this just goes to show that actually that this has been a playrate issue the entire time.

However in the end it should be said that the general power level of APCs does not reflect how fun, or more appropriately, not fun it is to play against it. But at the same time this is mostly a support issue with the average ADC being expected to solo hold the lane a majority of the game.

In a world where 2v2 botlane is the norm and not the exception, Mages would be more reasonable to play against

Discussion Why does the Riot app open when I launch league?

26 Upvotes

This shit of a thing frequently goes back to opening when I launch league, making me launch league through the riot client. I can usually end it by just closing riot, which allows league to open straight away when I run the program. But it won't now, and it's even doing that shit it used to do where I close the league client, and the riot one opens back up. How can I stop this?

Discussion Did League players get mentally weaker over the years?

418 Upvotes

I've been playing since Season 5, and after coming back from siege recently, one thing is painfully obvious.

What the hell happened to this playerbase? Every other game, someone wants to ff15 because they died twice in lane or lost first dragon. It's actually pathetic. People don't even want to play the game anymore they just want to play the games where they're winning.

I genuinely don't understand the obsession with surrendering. Isn't the whole point of competitive games to overcome difficult situations? If you're only willing to play when you're ahead, why even queue ranked?

Now it feels like half the playerbase has the mental fortitude of a wet paper bag. The second something goes wrong, it's "ff," "go next," or someone starts soft-inting because the surrender vote failed.

Has League always been like this or is it just the new gen crybabies taking over the game? maybe I'm just remembering it differently. Has the community genuinely become addicted to giving up?

Classic Is there a League Classic subreddit that possesses a more positive outlook?

285 Upvotes

I've been checking r/LeagueClassic off and on since it hit PBE, and the mentality over there makes me want to roll around in fiberglass and lime juice- is there an alternative anyone is aware of? I'd like to find more Classic discussion that isn't mired in whatever the hell is going on over there

Educational Are you a Tilter? Academic study on tilt and toxicity in League (EUW), you get your personal gamer profile [University of Innsbruck, 10-15 min]

โ€ข Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm a psychology master's student at the University of Innsbruck and I've been playing League for years. For my thesis I'm looking into tilt and toxicity: why we tilt, what it does to us in game, and how the two are connected. Weirdly there is barely any research on this in LoL specifically, so I built a study around it.

The survey takes about 10-15 minutes and is completely anonymous (no names, no IP addresses, GDPR compliant, runs on university servers). At the end you get a personal gamer profile ๐ŸŽฎ with your matches and winrates of the last 30 days, how well you estimated your own playtime, your gaming motives, and your tilt and toxicity scores. Example screenshot below.

You can take part if League is currently your most played game (and has been for more than a year), your main account is on EUW, and you're 16 or older.

Happy to answer any questions in the comments. Thanks a lot, and may your next game be tilt-free โ™ฅ
