On today's episode of the Rough Drafts Podcast, Chase "RedShirtKing" Wassenar and Walter "Ceades" Fedczuk break down everything IEM Gyeonggi had to offer this past weekend. Together, they discuss whether Starcraft is truly a dead game despite a rise in quality of play (8:20), how trades and super teams dictated the Overwatch Tournament (23:45), and whether the Western League of Legends scene should feel good after their efforts this week with rather new rosters (47:00). They close with promises of exciting news heading into the new year.

On today's episode of the Rough Drafts Podcast, Chase "RedShirtKing" Wassenar and Walter "Ceades" Fedczuk briefly discuss the upcoming IEM Gyeonggi event before getting sucked into the vortex of League of Legends roster news. Together, they discuss whether Giants Gaming are a solid dark horse candidate, the baffling decision of Team Liquid to bring Piglet back, and which Korean teams have poised themselves for an assuredly grueling offseason.

Warning: This Podcast was recorded on December 12, before several roster moves were made. Quick hits: KaKAO to Misfits (pessimistic, but we'll see), ReignOver, Piglet, and Olleh to Immortals(called it), Ssumday and Chaser to Dignitas (finally official), Nuclear and Chei to H2k-Gaming (great ADC; unsure about the support) and Locodoco as a challenger head coach (LOL).

In a bonus Q&A from our live stream (uncensored), Chase “RedShirtKing” Wassenar and Walter “Ceades” Fedczuk field some questions from their audience, including why the West is so far behind (and what that means for viewer interest), why China always seems to take one step forward and two steps back, and whether or not you should take a job coaching in esports in Istanbul (spoiler alert: no. No, you should not). Thanks to everyone who came by. Be sure to follow us at twitch.tv/roughdraftspodcast so you can join us next time around!

In today’s episode, Chase “RedShirtKing” Wassenar and Walter “Ceades” Fedczuk break down the League of Legends World Championship Semifinals and get ready for a Finals series that cannot possibly live up to the hype the ROX v. SKT series brought. Together, they discuss why going to series live is such a crapshoot, whether we learned anything of value from the H2k v. SSG series, why the SKT v. ROX series may be the best Bo5 Series in League of Legends history, and what would have to happen for the possibility of a Samsung Galaxy upset as Faker and company look to grab their third title. They close with Chase paying his penance to the church of Forgiven with an Ode that you must read to believe.
