Proving Grounds Pod

We sit down with the marksman for Resolve this past split of Proving Grounds and the current marksman for University of St. Thomas and Scouting Grounds Qualifier Array for EP 36. Topics include him going from bagging groceries and school to committing to League of Legends full time, his first split on Supernova, not feeling like he was ready for Resolve, improving and when he mentally knew he was ready, and of course some chatter about Worlds.

With no #ProvingGrounds action going on this week, we thought it'd be the perfect time to sit down with Rebel Fox, assistant coach of Maryville, quiet Project Manager in the NA AM scene, and a fellow color caster. So, a man of culture. We talked about getting started in casting, some of the challenges and successes he's faced while trying to climb the casting ranks, and our thoughts headed into Proving Grounds.

After a long hiatus, we are once again back at it again with Raising NA featuring Raafaa in a Snorlax onesie to symbolize how we took a few weeks off. But, we have a lot of updates and actually fit it into a brief amount of time. We said goodbye to the LCS orgs that have left us for the year as we celebrate our 3 orgs going to Worlds. We briefly touch on Academy Playoffs and also United Grand Prix results, as Smax gets to tell Cubby "I Told You So." We also get story time with Marc talking about his biggest dub back when he was still a piss random.

We sit down with the $60k/month man in RBM as he gives us a lot of insight on AOE qualifying for Proving Grounds and his year competing in amateur, along with a ton of laughs. Topics include landing on AOE, and what it's like competing with their org, Zoos spring split and his love for Raheen, Twitch Rivals, his fix for solo queue, and how he'd give up his salary to work the Tribunal full time if he could stream it and if it was brought back (Cubby would join too).
