It’s an EG Reunion as FlyQuest Inspired, Cloud9 Vulcan and Team Liquid Impact sit down with Emily to recap the second week of LTA Split 2 and take a trip down memory lane.

The Pros recap their 2-0 weeks and discuss how big of a gap there is between the Top 4 teams and the bottom 4 teams. Vulcan and Inspired are feeling good, but LYON made things a bit too close for comfort for Impact. Everyone then discusses whether or not 100 Thieves are in danger of falling out of the Top 4, before shifting to scrims. Vulcan and Inspired discuss whether or not they prefer to scrim fearless or standard now that we’re back to best of ones, and how important it is to be prepared for the upcoming group stage and super week. Then the Pros take some time to discuss what made that 2022 EG lineup so special, Impact’s status as unpaid temporary team manager in Korea, and what message they’d send to their other former teammate Jojopyun.

Opening Weekend of Split 2 in the LTA has concluded and Raz sits downs with FlyQuest Bwipo, Lyon Oddielan, and Disguised Huhi to talk about the banger games, the biggest upsets, and how all of the LTA teams stack up after their first matches.

SPOILERS AHEAD: The pros recap their matches where Flyquest and Lyon top the tables, and Bwipo spills the tea on his Yorick pick in the slobernocker of a game versus Disguised. Oddielan talks about the improvements and confidence boosts helping out his team, while Huhi is focused on growth for DSG. Everyone shares their experience with the korean bootcamp ahead of the season, before previewing their matches next week. Huhi is excited to play former teammates on 100 Thieves, alongside a tough weekend that also includes Cloud9. Oddielan is excited to play versus Contractz, Naafiri, and the aggressive playstyle of Shopify Rebellion, but knows that the first step to moving into the “Top 4” will be to take down Team Liquid Honda. Bwipo… well he’s not worried about his matchups next weekend at all.

The LCS might be done for the year but that doesn't mean there's not a lot to talk about! Finals weekend was one of the most memorable yet, thanks in no small part to the ending of the last game of the series.

Join Finals weekend enjoyers (and competitors) FLY Bwipo, TL Umti and 100 Tomo as they talk about the thoughts behind the final moments of the game, what they'd do differently and whether or not they think it's even the most cinematic ending to a series not just in the LCS but globally.

All this and more including the 100 v FLY Friday series, the sweet opening ceremony and what Team Liquid might've picked if they'd gotten to play the game five everyone expected.
