Are North American pros burnt out by Champions Queue or are they just lazy?
Both
Burnt out by playing 4 games of CQ a week ? what a hard life.
Probably both but mostly the latter
Where is this streamed live? Would be cool to watch it before Saturday LOL
@@jetto__421 ls channel
The new consistent theme is that Dom throws a dumb joke at LS, who is immersed into his own rant, followed by LS explaining how that is not what he meant and just continuing, while freeze frame dGon is grinning like a maniac
And it is very entertaining everytime
Congrats on the new gig Dgon. Will watch bc you’re on it!
What's funny is all the pros trying to justify why they're lazy af Lmaoo
It's sad that the guys who have so much passion for the game like Dom and ls just get consistently let down by the industry that they have devoted there lives to. Like I shed a year when dgon says you mad to Dom and he just goes yeah like dude cares so much about league and jokes about it cause he feels the despair of seeing his life being treated like a joke
is what a lot of people won't get and just dismiss these people as toxic or something.
@@neilpanganiban272 it doesn't mean they aren't toxic, they can be highly passionate and still toxic. I think LS has rolled it back a bunch and he's much better this year than he was in the past. But Dom is still toxic af. If u see his reaction to the T1 vs GenG finals, he only talks about both teams griefing, like he didn't say a single positive thing about either game in that series which is kinda weird when u consider that they are probably easily both top 5 teams in the world
@@AviralAgarwal ...is not saying positive things and focusing on mistakes what we're considering toxic in 2022? Back in my day, it was telling people to kill themselves. If you already know the team's top 5, what benefit is there to the audience to lauding praise on them? He's not a hype man, he's an analyst. You either already know or can receive those "positive" points a litany of places. So I think it makes sense to focus on what teams need to improve on if you're trying to analyze their play.
@@LikeACrouton I'll clarify what I mean toxic. I don't think dom is toxic to the players in the slightest. I don't think infact any of the players at T1 or Gen G could care less if Dom actually told them to kill themselves. What I think constitutes toxicity as a public facing analyst is when u complain certain players don't deserve a job cause of their poor play despite being amazing cause they got beaten out by someone slightly better. Like Peanut had a bad game twice, doesn't mean he's the worst jungler and should now get fired. It really kills the hype for all these series especially when he doesn't say much other than Peanut is griefing his team and is a washed paycheck stealer. Literally all he said in this situation. Nothing about how oner might be the better jungler and just outplayed him with creative ganks while Peanut is still top 3 or 4 in lck and top 10 junglers in the world.
A good example of analysis would be Caedrel, he still roasts the losing players occassionally but there's lots of real analysis always with it, regardless of what's going on. Dom knows how to do but he just reverts to a toxic analyst at times. I really think his saving NA series from last year was really really good but some of his takes are really not good for league's growth as an esport.
LS is about to be murdered and Dgon is just smiling
Will never getting away from the smack lmao
its just too funny man :D
“Work life balance” dude we’re talking about playing video games , a couple times a day. There are people NOT PLAYING at all. Even NFL players in season will go to film , practice , meetings and lifts and all the other extra stuff.
Dgon on the FCF is actually amazing glad to see him branching out. Also Terrell Owens is gonna be playing
Oh it’s gonna be lit okay Dgon!
Dom words on 29:30 onward are absolutely on point... As Metallica says, sad but true...
enjoyed the content
why does it take so long to get it posted on youtube?
Why are the vods posted so late? It’s literally game day. Ain’t nobody want to listen to this after the games are already done lol
Let’s go DGON making moves!!!
Top tier thumbnail
Any Twitch Primers here?
Love the thumbnail :D
17:40 good one dgon
Before I watch one second of this episode. That thumbnail, LMAO
Time stamps?
Tyler1 looks like he's about to vaporize Kobe and Dash for the glory of the Sontaran Empire in that promo image.
Shoutouts to Elemental Hero Stratos the legend.
Timestamps? 🥺
00:00 Start
1:00:33 End
25:20 I believe that having a lot of one-tricks is amazing for the competetive scene of a server. One-Tricks are the ones who innovate and optimize runes, items, combos, jungle-pathing etc. They set the standard in terms of mechanics and force you to learn the match-up.
They also ruin quality of the games when they are banned out
@@jacekrak6327 then instead of banning them out let them show the integrity of their champion so that you can learn?
I was expecting terrible audio but it wasn’t all that bad
About LS's analogy. It goes like this for example there is a situation in a battlefield and probably the best gun in that situation is to use a shotgun but the only specialist left in your army is a sniper. I would never let that guy use a fcking shotgun instead I would gamble with his specialty and see what happens. That is the logic behind it, you gamble in with your specialty and take your chances not with a weapon you have little to none experience in using it.
23:10 i fucking cant HAHAHAHA
Props to G4 for getting legit leaders in the community on air.
Congrats Dgon :D
IWD goes on a rant about a serious topic the community has been talking about for years now. LS: oh hey lol kesha is in chat. interrupting the whole discussion. IWD continues the rant and waits for someone to respond to his take. LS: mad? great discussion LS
Yeah, I was kind of disappointed that not only did LS not participate in the conversation but kept interrupting them with "dude, chipotle closes at 9" or the Kesha thing. Seemed like he was trying to change the subject for whatever reason. Regardless, it was just super disrespectful and it kept ruining the mood and flow of the conversation. He's done it before but this time was the worst.
terrible episode. I like LS but he was super rude here. Dom carried this episode hard. Bad audio issues as well
Timestamps?!
I lost to a bowser in melee once it’s even. And to answer bowser advantages. He actually does earlier than fox generally because fox can just throw him off stage and bowser struggles to recover. Bowsers only real advantage is his out of shield. When shielding it can be hard to attack someone attacking your shield and bowser has a frame 1 option and fox has a frame 4 option(still considered one of the best). To conclude, the matchup is winning for bowser if he plays good :)
Bowser is op against netplay falco too. Shitty shield pressure is a diesease
Lying is a sin
GIGACHAD Talks about melee on a league show. Refuses to elaborate
cope
This is trolling right?
To be completely honest, if a player actually aimed to be the best they can be, would they just not play in NA? Like, I can see that players like Toucouille and Pridestalker go to LCS because playing against Bjergsen and Bwipo is surely better than ERLs. But it's hard for me to believe that someone like Huni is playing in NA because he wants to be the best.
Yea you can win a control deck with a aggro deck if the enemy just draws only late game cards the whole game and you get a god tier mulligan. Easy. Just hit 4head
Dude the entire thing about control decks is to build the ultimate board state so yeah aggro/combo decks that end the game before that board state should obviously have a better shot
You know what they say. Ya winsome and ya lose winsome
timers pls aaa
I always loved making jokes about NA but this is beyond jokes. It’s straight up pathetic and disrespectful, the amount of fuckin privilege these weirdos get and they can’t be bothered to train for what is their guckin job? I’m starting to think that the whole “minimum wage” scandal, while not fair for Vulcan, does apply to a whole bunch of these players. At this point, I’ll just watch LAN or something cus at least they’re likeable individuals if anything.
Sad but true. I’m still on the hopium thinking that at least a few pro players haven’t given up their passion for the game, league, and industry.
I actually can't believe this was posted with that horrible audio quality and echo from dgon. I love the show, but this one is near unbearable.
Text to speech would be more bearable
agree 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000%. i will still watch because i don't want the scene to die. but 10000000000000000000000000000% na players don't have the passion to do anything.
Let it go buddy, its over
i''m gonna be real, if there's an echo and you just can't figure out how to properly get rid of it until 25 minutes in, maybe jsut postpone/cancel the episode in the future.
I'm gonna be real. No one cares what you think.
Okay DGon is just freaking me out with this pic, im legit creeped out
BANGER
"Making the Mother of all Drafts here, Nick. Can´t fret over every Sin!"
C9 while drafting Renekton AND running it back after losing, probably
just came here to say nice thumbnail lmao
Dom so funny today no cap
I’m 41 And own my own company. Sometimes we work 15 hours per day 7 days a week. I once worked 32 hours straight and I still play video games.
What's your company?
@@spencercar8080 I do car wraps for a living. But… we also do wall murals and stuff like that.
should of had this episode out earlier in the week :(
g4tv sucks
21:25 How sad is it going to be if 100T win LCS? About as sad as the last time that they unexpectedly won.
Dom hatred for 100t is irrational. Its actually embarrassing.
The problem with NA? the GOAT of NA is a Danish player, enough said
trueeeeeee
@Duane E that’s what you would think but school system makes people better
@Duane E eu is dominating na in basketball, it's over
@Duane E nah
@Duane E ty
damn how did ls get weed in to Korea
Lazy NA feels bad for the grinders
Huge grats to dgon
I don't know man. I mean it has to be hard for NA players to set this goal of being the best in the world, mainly because if I'm playing in the LCS and I'm grinding the game 16 hours a day every single day, sacrificing everything (health, family, friends, other hobbies, relaxation, my free time, etc) in order to be the best, I know that I'm still gonna fail, just because there's a bunch of other players doing the same in Korea or China, but they have a much better enviroment for improvement, so I stand no chance. Then you can make the argument of "Well, they should at least try to be the best in their region", which would be an actual goal, if not for the fact that people meme NA. Fans don't really believe that being the best in the LCS is an achievement worth being proud of. You can win NA, you can be the MVP, etc, but then if you go to MSI and only manage to finish 5th or 4th, you have failed. If you go to worlds as the first seed but finish 3-3 in the group stage, not making it to quarters, you have failed. If those are your international results, then the community doesn't care how you do domestically, they'll just meme your domestic titles. In the end, winning NA is not enough incentive to tryhard, because nobody cares if you win, unless you can greatly exceed expectations at MSI or Worlds.
damn dgon, good for you, hope the league pops off
I think every episode ls has an "is it because im gay... " joke, kinda funny
Stratos was so sick. Him getting banned was the reason I quit yugioh
I'm fully prepared to watch c9 get 3-0'ed by GG. They are just having their yearly collapse early this time. Idk what's been happening with them but for multiple years in a row now they start strong and just fall off a cliff, they get worse while everyone else is finding their groove.
This aged really well my guy!
@@caseyweatherly632 I didn't say they would lose, I said I was prepared to watch them lose.
@@pokemonsterable people looking for reason to hate now, smh
Voluntary opting into hard matchup is just you shooting your foot. Self sabotage bruh
Tyler1 this tyler1 that why is no one praising riot sanjuro who chose to be a martyr for t1’s career boom
Dom being such a troll is so fucking funny
SCUFFFED DGON
NA lost a good thing in the form of Champion’s Queue ngl
And it'd no one else's fault
Wait, it’s gone already?
We need GIGACHAD DARSHAWN back in the front seat run it down Sion! Darshawn can clean this mess up. trust.
DGON PLEASE DROP THE CFB REFERENCES YEAHHHH
Doublelift > bjergsen
if you turn 28, you can start to relax, because at least you are older than Kurt Cobain...
“Are NA pros burnt out by Champions queue or are they just lazy?” I think that we shouldn’t generalize all pros, so to be fair, I would have to say that the NA region lacks *passion*
Okay 1. The pros are the region because they are talking about the region progressing professionally.
2. Generalizations always have exceptions
@@TheLegolasblk I agree, but I’m sure the pros also want to progress the quality of solo queue as well.
Dgon casting football makes me so hype
summit no mini map no communication
mvp
Faker thought kr soloq was bad, just wait till he comes to NA for worlds this year
In kr Chinese PPL are running down faker over bets N'A is just bad and boring
Like ok Jordan and Kobe would do anything to be the best but there were also players like shaq who would just eat McDonald’s and was physically gifted
Na needs help but we don’t want to push them too far to the like Korean side where they are a machine that is just grinding
Not defending NA but trying to look bigger than that
League in NA is depressing.
An na player farming for 6 hours a day gets much less from it then a Koreans 6 hours a days bc the quality of ques na gets is worse then it just spirals out of control to what we have now
" It's uncomfrotable to have voice chat" . Boy if you don't have the courage to talk to other pro's in a video game how the hell are you gonna be able to confront your teammates. This excuse is the most pathetic of them all.
Please no smelly fans, first time LCS event
Lmfao I just turned 25 gg
That episode was terrible. Like dom was only one even trying to do anything. Low effort trash episode, except dominik.
:D
:)
Man it's 2022 there's NO REASON why y'all always have some type of issue 🤦🏽♂️ that Echo makes this unbearable
New facecheck is so much better about this tho.
@@jeyserreacts3444 for sure, but if it's not Dgon its LS lol it's always someone or something
Probably the worst episode to day sadly. So much technical difficulties, felt like no one wanted to do this episode and just wanted it to be over lol... You guys feeling ok?
Viewbot checking in
32:44 But Bjergsen is not even NA player, he's from EU. Basically NA never produced it's own Worlds level talent🤔🤔🤔
Old C9 was fine with sneaky. I am from eu btw
@@rasmushurme268 Zven >>>
Bjergsen is practically NA as he spent most of his time developing in NA. He legit has been on TL for as long as he played competitively in EU.
@@necromancealpha4620 he isn’t na because for him to be so good and dominant, he would have to be eu
@@dragonplayz6606 What are you even saying 😂
Dom hatred for 100t is actually irrational his claim about macro can be said of any teams but 100t has improved does get objectives and secures then and wins. He was like this last year aswell.
I'm just gonna watch him mold again when 100t win LCS he cries on his seat.
crazy thing is they will with how tl are playing
They have literally no macro, what are u talking about :D
@@radekhruby142 your evidence is?
Plz link ur opgg
the entire NA region will be 'crying on their seat' when 100t wins lcs and embarrasses themselves at msi
