Hey man, keep up your charisma, a lot of pros show 0 personality to the public but you go to a lot of podcasts and seem like a really interesting person, aside from a good player, thank you for that.
I love the new format change up. These sorts of programmes are hard to sit through in one go and it's a great way for the creators to make better revenue off the show.
1:35 Thorin "i have to say without going too deep, ..., I don"t believe any news story that comes out about China, on any level, on any area of the world for the last 10 years." Thorin i love you, why don't we have more people like Thorin, who can use their brain properly AND have the balls to say the harsh truth !?! HUGE thank you, i waited so fking long to finally hear this, you heal my soul, I feel less lonely thanks to you sir. THANK YOU legend! give this man whatever he needs he deserves it.
Yeah, as someone who really only engages with the NA content, really love the split setup. Maybe it'd be good to preface each section right at the begging but also maybe not if it messes up the live/full flow. Overall, really great and thanks for the content!
Here is a little fun task, that makes the fact so many NA Teams passed on Damonte even more insane: Name all NA born midlaners, that competed at Worlds since Season 4 (or 2014). The names are Hai, Pobelter and Damonte. Not using an import slot on Mid as an import dependend region should be incredibly valuable... Instead Dignitas thought Froggen, a player that hasnt been to Worlds since what... Season 2... has the higher upside... Now if Dignitas would have singed a really insane star player instead of Damonte. Like Chovy from Griffin. But they picked Froggen and Fenix over Damonte. Why?
If we take Montes statement about Doublelift missmatching CoreJJs style, can we say he did the same thing to Olleh? Last I checked Olleh made a name for himself as the best roaming SUP back in 2017
@@orakell2593 fk that. After monte and doa left lck wasn't as enjoyable to watch and now I have to deal with fking LS stupid casting sh**. He's at the lvl of a reddit analyst.
I'm only going to defend Looper as a Singed otp and not as someone who's gone back and watched his games with as good a fine-tooth comb as you can without pro-view. I suspect he (not saying it's not Mata) played the minions purely for his team. The concept of giving that Damonte was just talking is something comparable to what he should know Huni did as well. Donated that level 2-3 teleport to break the game for bot early. Something Monte even commended. Looper was just that boosted maniac from a bygone era. Leave my Singed skin's owner alooooone ;-;
C9 is two reasons ... 1. Other teams are getting better , they are not clean but C9 has to beat them now instead of these teams beating themselves. 2. blabber has been neutralized. This was C9s secret weapon and now hes going even. Compare blabbers stats 1st half of the split to the last half. That is the story of C9. Also check the bans , that is the story of the enemy teams vs C9.
There is an interesting book about the finances of China and how money isn't used as a market investment for long term sustainability or profit, but used as a tool primarily for political gain. Do you see this as the case with this years worlds being held in China, twice in a row, in a new stadium that is potential empty?
I think you're wrong about the cheating aspect because, if I recall correctly, Riot referees are inside the gaming houses taking care of that sort of thing, like they'd do on stage...one of the reasons for the increased down timers in between games is those people having to relocate
As a european viewer, it does not benefit us gamerbois that worlds takes place in the morning. Most of us have such shitty sleepingpatterns from gaming, the morning is when i go to sleep :(
sleeping patterns? I'm fking working morning and afternoon. Won't be able to see most of the games thanks to that I guess. And watching re-runs is not as fun so I guess for this worlds I'll have to stick to viewing vods of only the teams that are interesting to me (so mainly LEC teams) instead of watching the whole thing which I usually do. Unless we are still/again working from home at that time. Then I guess I would have a chance.
I'm from EUW (UK) and live in China and its been fine here since May, what Monte says about Korea - hotels quarantine and the goverment being really involved so its not really much diffrent. I know china seems kinda fuck up and it was ground zero for covid, but honnestly everything is sound now
imagine saying bjerg has not been top 2 for years .. just imagine he was the only 1 playing from 2017 till 2019 he fucking played with mikeyoung and grig and dont forget the goat akadian LMAO
I usually enjoy listening to these podcast and not commenting on anything, but the take at 12:15 about not knowing if the coach is speaking with the team is absolutely garbage, it's like their brain farted in unison, they always like to discuss the matches, but this take makes me think that they only watch some highlights of the games because if you watched the broadcast you will know how riot handles this. For those who are still trying to figure it out, videocamera, fucking videocamera, they put one in the room of the players (wich is the one that is used in Lec to show post match reactions, the ones that everyone are those from Mad Lions), then you can be sure that the coaches are in another room, but you could say: yes but they still could be in the discord call, yes but why? They literally have delayed games and if they were in the call they wouldn't understand the game state, plus the players would need to explain the situation everytime, so since there's a referee, he would notice that.
I enjoy having a diversity of opinions on podcasts such as this, and it really makes them interesting to listen to even if I don't agree with all of his points. You may find him insufferable, but having two people on a podcast sit there and agree or have the same opinions would be far more insufferable, I think.
excuse me i'm using translator google.my language is spanish Thorin I respect you but you should shut up on topics that you have a superficial knowledge of. Because you make yourself look ignorant (or other things that I don't think you are) and undermine your opinions on topics that you are an expert. Apart from that, very good episode
Broxah severely underrated again. He’s doing way better than Wiggily, Dardoch, Spica, Contractz/Meteos, Svenskeren, Xmithie. Arguably Blaber is inting half the games away. Santorin and Closer are doing very well.
Hmm he's doing better than all the lower tier junglers but he's just as questionable as Spica. Spica randomly ints but tries to be proactive, while Broxah is non existent in a lot of TL games. With Spica it's probably a lack of experience while I can't truly excuse Broxah since he's been a world finalist. I'm not 100% sold on him yet just because he looks good against weaker teams.
Thanks for having me back on Summoning Insight! :) I've also started up my own channel recently if anyone wants to watch some more League content

Get em Tanner.
Who knows you might repeat last year's run and make it to worlds.
You learned well from Travis. Saw the interview where comment on featured video xD
Tanner time
You were a very enjoyable guest to listen to ! Good luck for LCS !
still the highest quality podcast in the league scene after all these years
I like the new way you are laying out the content. It's nice being able to watch the entire show in smaller segments.
that story about jankos and vander leaving the ryu video is so funny
Gets me every time he tells it too haha
Stamp?

The Worst Player to win worlds ever was probably season 2 Taipei Assassins Jungler Lilballz or Season 3 SKT support PoohManDu.

Pretty sure riot would have a problem with that

Thorin talks good to TSM Pog
how is worlds in the moring a good time for europeans?
You can't tell me this wouldn't be the first time NA won worlds if NA doesn't get to go to worlds.
Where my TL/C9 skins?
0-30 scrims :D

Why bring in broxah, just buy ruler instead :)
thorin is the goat. oh yeah yeah

Apart from that, very good episode
He does that often don't worry
The funny thing is that he uses the same argument against other content creators, even though he's the worst example at it.
Just so my ten cents are in the hat: I really don't like you splitting the videos :)
I don't like it either.
Calling OG a splitpush team lmfao
99% survival rate. KEKW better put everyone in a bubble!
Tencent rein supreme
They really said Spica and Broxah are the worst 2 junglers in NA. Straight out of their ass.
Spica might be the worst and broxah isn’t higher than maybe 4th so idk not really out there ass
Surely Wiggly and Dardoch the stars of NA lcs jungle position is better than Spica 2ndplace team and Broxah 1st place team. Spot on.
@@Ay-sd1sj broxah and spica have better teammates and still fail to look good
I miss the days when you guys quit league for Overwatch
I think it's obvious the reason you are doing two videos is to double your views and not to make it easier on the audience
Broxah severely underrated again.
He’s doing way better than Wiggily, Dardoch, Spica, Contractz/Meteos, Svenskeren, Xmithie. Arguably Blaber is inting half the games away. Santorin and Closer are doing very well.

He is not underrated you have to factor teammates performance also wiggly and spica are 100% but broxah is close
Wonder what Trump has to say about this :) Korea would be better.
Boring
Thorin b like: lemme start this podcast by being openly n loudly xenophobic lmfao
SupaaDennis2 How is questioning the Chinese government xenophobic?
Disliking a genuinely corrupt government does not equal disliking the citizens who have no way of saying anything about it
