Dont let this banger episode distract you from the fact that Meteos did, in fact, stand up Kobe on their plans to watch Dune 2 in cinema.
-
Kobe's laugh when Azael said Poo-Poo Lasers was from the soul man.
-
The soft inting thing reminds me of Meteos's 1-27 Brand game.
-
Everyone needs a friend like Kobe! Knows that Meteos accomplished a personal goal but was too humble/didn't think it was big enough to talk about and brings it up for him.
-
Meteos has really improved his speaking skills / expressing himself in an articulate manner - feels much smoother than previous episodes. Kudos!
-
We've gone full circle with going back to Tribunal review, lol, that's the only way to know fully if someone is 'soft' inting.
-
meteos barber is grand theft stealing paychecks with that job
-
New drinking game: Everytime Kobe says “These types of things” take a shot. Edit: I died from alcohol poisoning
-
Soft inting is so subjective and impossible to actually define. I am with Kobe
-
The soft inting ban thing won't be easy. Hard inters dont get banned half the time. Quasi afkers who just afk farm or even just walk in and out of fountain dont get banned. It will be real hard to detect.
-
Thank you for keeping this podcast going during the break! Even just talking about the game of league, I still love tuning in
-
Hypothetically, if Riot decides to ban people for soft inting retroactively, Meteos will get banned.
-
soft inting has been going on for YEARS. and it’s sad that we finally getting a discussion about it when the player base in NA is the lowest it’s ever been. reason why i quit the game is 9/10 games someone gets petty to the point where they will stop trying to win the game because they’re upset at their own teammate for bullshit
-
Cool episode, definitely makes me want to tune in whenever the LCS is back😂
-
ive come across more toxicity in WoW Mythic+ Dungeons than I have in League. I am also in Iron/bronze so i probably just havent seen a whole lot of inting since we are all bad lol
-
only at 16:00 in the video so idk if they mention this, maybe a good punishment for people "soft inting" could be to ban them from playing ranked? it could be like how CS does it where it scales from 24 hours, 3 days, a week, etc.? its just hard to really classify what "soft inting" is when people could genuinely be clueless about the game or just misplay.
-
Did not expect Clint Stevens to be brought up here of all places lmao
-
what an INSANELY good episode
-
Being able to default chat to party only is the best gift riot has ever given junglers
-
Love the dive!
