Week two of the LCS Lock-in Playoffs are in the books, as Raz sits down with LYON Dhokla, Cloud9 Vulcan and Sentinels Huhi in our penultimate PROS of the split.
It was a weekend of dominant victories as TL and LYON each began an attempt to run the lower bracket while Cloud9 continued to separate themselves from the rest of the pack. The group starts to recap the weekend’s games before taking a detour to get the inside scoop from Huhi on the Vayne pick that almost derailed SEN’s Game 3 draft.
Then, Vulcan shares what he thinks makes this Cloud9 roster so dominant, how scuttle crab prio makes Blaber unbeatable, and why this year, things will be different in the finals. Next, the team discuss FlyQuests’s Falloff, TL’s return to form and how exactly DSG stacks up to the rest of the teams, before Huhi dives into his role as in-game translator. The group then discusses the challenges of one team speaking multiple languages, as well as the rumored addition of Voice Comms in Solo Queue.
Finally, the groups looks ahead to finals weekend where Dhokla and LYON will have to win three best of fives in three days if they want to win Lock-In and punch their ticket to First Stand. The Pros cap off the episode by taking a trip down memory lane and relive the challenges of integrating with a new team, some of which will remain forever shrouded in mystery.
Make sure to tune in next weekend on FRIDAY, Saturday, and Sunday for the final weekend of LCS Lock-In.
