Buenos días, GGWP-ers! For our 30th episode, we’re truly putting the ‘Worldwide’ in our name, covering three different pro LoL regions, as well as OWL and CWL. We even dip into the ninth circle of hell (no, not twitter, the other one).
Kicking things off, Chase wonders why we’re watching the LCS, and we all disagree on how good Keith McBrief is. Speaking of strong opinions, Chase and Pira both hate Soraka Top, and Magical BigBrains up a replacement champion, but is it worse? After the break, we cover the start of the season in the LCK, and how it’s different without Papasmithy (or the fans). Also, What the F*ck is going on with OWL? The buzz and the viewership both seem to be missing. Oh well, at least things are looking up for the COD World League, mostly. We all question if we are, in fact, the baddies, before talking about Twitter selectively enforcing their rules.
