There is an LCS "pre-season" tournament called the LCS Lock-In that will start this weekend. Two groups of 5 before a single elim knockout stage.

I have a feeling we're going to see a lot of TSM games this year where they'll be trying to come back from a massive deficit caused by a frequently overextending top laner.

I'm just hoping they aren't shy of benching Huni for Hauntzer once they see it isn't working.

Wiggly changing his name to Griffin is really distracting because there is already a player in NA challenger jungler named Griffin who isn't him

never mind it was a wiki error

Also who is Primal? Is he an amateur scene caster that got the nod up? Is he totally new talent from Riot? I'm well versed in all of the other additions LCS added but I've never seen him before the Lock In started

Not sure if he did amateur casting but he used to work for Riot for a long time. Not sure if he still works for them now.

I thought he was TFT because I saw him on a cast their but I guess not. I find the face paint distracting and make harder to take seriously.

Also, wowza TL that good or TSM that bad? Thus felt like both thougg I might lean the later.

IMO 3 of the 4 matches are pretty set in stone. I can't imagine TSM/IMT/FQ winning against their opponents. The only one I'm weary on is the EG/GGS match because I don't trust either in a best of 5, but Impact should be good enough on his own to carry it home
