100 Thieves’ opening map loss to Gen.G proved to be nothing more than a false alarm, as the top-seeded North American team at the Last Chance Qualifier comfortably won their next two maps to advance to the next round of the LCQ. On Breeze, 100T went with a comp that’s not typical to them: a double-duelist setup with Asuna on Reyna and Nitr0 on Jett, putting recently promoted b0i on Viper. They got off to a hot start on attack with some great entries from Nitr0, taking the first five

The last string that held Team Liquid together broke. The multi-time LCS champion team committed millions of dollars this past November, signing two high-profile free agents and renewing its mid laner to one of the biggest extensions in the league—and now, it looked all for naught.  It had already been a rough June for Liquid. One of those stars, top laner Alphari, got benched amid behavioral issues early in the month, and the other, Santorin, played through debilitating migraines and needed time to recover. Yet there was one more unforeseen

forZe have claimed victory in Tirana, Albania at the Gjirafa50 Masters League Season 2 Finals, completing a run through the lower bracket of the double-elimination event by scraping past BLINK in the grand final. The four-team tournament, whose competitors all qualified from the online stage, offered a prize pool of $70,972, with BLINK being the sole home squad in attendance. Andrey "⁠Jerry⁠" Mekhryakov's men kicked the tournament off in poor form, losing their opening match in rather one-sided fashion to AVE, but managed to recover with a win over Trasko

Sylveon is the latest Pokémon to join the Pokémon UNITE roster, and while it has already received some pretty substantial nerfs, it is still a strong Special Attacker that can provide your team plenty of opportunities to take down opponents and secure objectives.  The Fairy-type is more similar in playstyle to Attackers like Pikachu and Alolan Ninetails, in that its moves are fairly straightforward and can have lingering effects depending on how you play the Pokémon.  Sylveon is classified as a Ranged Attacker, though it is also bulkier than many

It’s 3am and Korean-born FPX mid laner Doinb is streaming a League of Legends solo queue game on Douyu. He’s the only one left in the gaming house. Between scrims, solo queue, and an LPL Summer Split series the day after, he’ll have a busy schedule. But it doesn’t matter. As the 2019 world champion often says, he’ll have all the time to sleep when he’s retired.  On top of being a great competitor, Doinb remains close to his fans by streaming almost every day of the week during the

Team Aster was the first team to record a positive COVID test while training in Bucharest ahead of The International 10.  All 10 members of Aster, including the players, coach, manager, and their accompanying video team tested positive last week. Valve and tournament organizer PGL did implement a workable solution to allow players to compete even while in self-quarantine, but Aster decided to play things safe.  Even though the symptoms for the entire team have been steadily improving, management made the decision to play the group stage for TI10 with
