Hello and welcome back to another episode of the Dive! Azael, Kobe, and Meteos recap round 1 of playoffs, break down Skarner and his updates, discuss their predictions for the upper and lower brackets, and debate who can win the LCS title. And don’t worry, we didn’t forget: Kobe might have to eat a lemon depending on how things shake out. (We hold each other accountable here on The Dive.)
P.S. APA might be the best trash talker in all of sports.

Hello & Welcome back for a very special episode of The Dive. Let's be real. Azael, Kobe & Mark were ITCHING to chat about League after it being over a month since the last official game they've covered. So with the Worlds Qualifying series, with it being NA vs. EMEA & with Worlds starting just next week, the trio found it to be a perfect time to bring back The Dive!
The Big 3 go over what they've been doing with their time off. It's mostly video games still. Which still involved quite a bit of League (Did you hear Kobe hit Grandmasters?). They break down the Worlds Patch, weigh in on the Worlds Music Video. TIL Mark is a Swiftie. We say a fond farewell to TSM, welcome Shopify Rebellion & throw our weight behind Golden Guardians as they defend the soul of North America against BDS.
Tune into that Worlds Qualifying Series Sunday, 9PM PT for us West Coasters & 12AM ET on Monday for East Coasters. See if Golden Guardians or BDS earn the final spot to Worlds!

Hello & Welcome back for another episode of The Dive. The regular sprint (get it?) is behind us and we are moving headlong to playoffs. Best of 5's kick off Thursday!
In this episode, Mark, Kobe & Azael the trio go over their All Pro voting thought process... one of them didn't do their homework in time... But they still managed to answer questions like: what does consistency mean for top? Is Jojo the best mid we've seen in years? Is FLY's fall the greatest flop in LCS history?
Then they ran through their playoff previews: EG vs. TSM & TL vs. NRG. Spoiler alert, both series are sincerely bangers.
Those best of 5s kick off Thursday at 2PM Pacific/5PM Eastern with TSM starting their run vs. Evil Geniuses. See you there!
