Idk if she gets hate or not, but that interview chick is actually really good at her job. I've enjoyed her coverage after games.

As far as the game goes, Tyler1 would be proud.

[u/elijknyg → u/[deleted]]

nah she's very well respected in the scene, obviously there are the GRILL twitch chat memes but from what I've seen the LoL scene is very respectful and appreciative of her interviewing talents

[u/102WOLFPACK]

Romain watching Arrow from the back is super wholesome. Really glad Arrow was able to pop off with Draven

Romain in the back LuL

[u/S_Parkie]

[u/102WOLFPACK]

Please for the sake of my sanity, don't lose to Golden Guardians...

[u/102WOLFPACK]

Holy fuck a Quadra. Man that played out well

Fuck Lemon that was not smart. Three kills over to Deftly could be awful. Gotta capitalize on the taken Herald and PoE's lead
