fun fun

few thoughts:

-randy the old coach(?) had a nice voice lol. reminds me of a teacher I had in high school
-lol @ fabby trolling fenix and fenix shitting on youngbin too hard. fenix dont tilt pls. but ya those 2 are never making it onto the A team lol.
-I guess quas' problem is near confirmed to be depression or some kind of mental issue. seems to be it. that really sucks and hope things work out for him.
-ugh loco seems REALLY reluctant. I don't doubt his skillset cause I think he's a decent match for this roster but I'm worried if things start bad he might just mentally nope out of there. seems super hesitant about coaching.
-whats up with markz? not sure if that was just in response to the bad time they had pre-loco or if he's actually considering leaving? he seemed pretty serious about not wanting to deal with the players.

With Fenix's alleged attitude issues, I wonder if we could see another Piglet-Keith situation. Individually, Fenix is hands down the better player (it's even mentioned in the video that he was apparently stomping Youngbin), but in a team dynamic where TL has a carry top and ADC, Youngbin could fit theoretically fit that mold.

I mean, if we're just going off by what's in the video both fenix and youngbin had instances where their attitudes were a problem (Fenix when Fabby picked him something he didn't want and Youngbin when he didn't want to play anymore since Fenix was stomping him so hard).

so if you were looking for a mid you'd probably be better off getting someone new who you know doesn't get stomped by fenix to the point of not wanting to play anymore.

but then again im sure there were far more issues among other players as well that weren't documented in this

Watching this felt depressing even though I am not a TL fan. So many issues, seemingly dragged over from last season. Some players have attitude issues and TL is rotating through coaches trying to fix them. Even Mark said he does not want to work with these players anymore.
Makes me feel they should have rather made changes to the player roster.
Off-season = best season

TL going into the season of "communications" with two koreans that barely speak english and one of them not even motivated anymore. The only smart thing they did in the offseason is the 10 man roster. At least they are now able to change players that cause problems. But i guess it costs them a good bunch of money being wishy washy and keeping people that don't work out.

I'd say that with this roster 4th would be well above expectations rather than the usual disappointment

did they anticipate getting outbid or just didn't think about the korean outflow post worlds. settling on fenix as mid when guys like GBM were available later on is hilarious

Curse always seemed pretty slow to do roster changes they needed so it's not a surprise. I think GBM was more of a NRG guys talking directly to him so don't know if there was an opportunity to grab him.

While I don't know much about TLs finances, I assume it's less than NRG/IMT etc.

well they could scout some korean challenger mid and be better off than fenix by the looks of it

Eh, I don't see how anyone can talk bad about fenix given his regular outstanding performances last season. He's a troll but he's also a kid and I think he probably cares a lot. Hopefully he can have a good attitude from this point forward.

I love how real these things are btw.

I don't see Liquid doing well with this roster. Too many deep issues. I Think they should have kept Keith and rebuilt around him Smoothie and maaaaybe dom, not Fenix and Piglet.

no pls

i shudder at the thought of such a core

besides IWD that team would also have a grand total of maybe an LCS split experience between them.

you'd have a good case for replacing fenix/piglet for better imports but getting rid of them just to keep your most inexperienced and/or worst players is bad.
