yeah i agree. it was much more clear after watching this. at the same time though this is a big negative towards riot because how tf is a casual fan who isn't watching this going to follow along if the players themselves can't. its too complicated and they should have decided on one of these formats all year.
@@rynejones8513 I honestly enjoy that it changes frequently because I think the old way where we just had these stagnant long splits got pretty old. I also think it's only extra complicated because they insisted on the merger with Brazil, so that's the one part I wish they hadn't done. But we're here more so we'll see how it goes.
@@TravisGafford consistency is superior, always. if they want to change something so be it, but actually commit to one instead of trying to have every few months be different. its dumb af.
@@TravisGafford i mean it has been a consistent topic on there over the years. riot continues too not go for consistency and the viewership continues to go down. maybe at some point they will recognize it.
This might be my favorite ask the pros section yet. They're great personalities and take being completely lost so well. Riot should use this instead of Mark's video to explain the format, lol Also the hemisphere meme got me so good.
we need to get these guys in the decision room when riot comes up with their terrible names. First Strike makes sense with the game and it sounds way better even if it wasn't in the game.
Great content as always, these quizzes are hilarious. I also had no idea how the format worked, and I even watched the videos when they first came out. Lmao.
Okay...that is, with no exaggeration, the greatest video in the history of the internet. Worth it alone for the MarkZ "First Strike", but then BOOM! The Sven seasons lesson. DO DANG FUNNY! Travis at his best.
The problem I’m currently having is the massive changes to format and all the changes to the game. I haven’t played league in years but this is the first time I can’t understand what’s happening on and off the rift
Maybe I'm just reading into it whatever I want like a fraudster pretending to have a crystal ball, but Markz has this wry grin on his face the whole video like reciting the format is making him realize how bad and needlessly complicated it is
"what's at stake"
"like, personally??"
Some good top lane personalities this split
I think every seeding should be based off "their vibes."
The way this is unintentionally the best format explainer ever is great!

@@rynejones8513 we can talk about it on hotline league if you want

Zven not understanding hemispheres is cracking me up
the editing during that segment killed me, lmao
What the actual frick. His mind must be blown.
"Yeah but it's Sniper" LOL
yo its sacrix LOL
sacrix pog
this was honestly super informative haha. They should definitely play this today on the broadcast
this markz pro is pretty smart no?
Debatable. Also, you guys gotta get UA-cam verified.
Yes that Mark guy is good remembering that international tournament first strike
"Walmart MSI" Zven's not wrong
Mark is hilarious
This might be my favorite ask the pros section yet. They're great personalities and take being completely lost so well. Riot should use this instead of Mark's video to explain the format, lol
Also the hemisphere meme got me so good.
This is honestly clearer than the explainer video.
7:15 im dying zven is actually a content machine
No lie Travis I saw someone in an LEC pop quiz comment section accuse THEM of stealing this format from YOU. Thanks for keeping these going!
Lmao oops
Sven constantly saying “type shit” is so good😂
I laughed so hard😂
I like how EVERYONE called it First Strike!!! XD
we need to get these guys in the decision room when riot comes up with their terrible names. First Strike makes sense with the game and it sounds way better even if it wasn't in the game.
Jokes on drew he's getting paid in exposure
Drew's editing this video was god tier
This time we had Juan work on it! Drew filmed it though!
@@TravisGafford OH! Big shoutout to Juan then! and of course everyone involved
Man it's been a minute since we've had so much personality in NA. I'm excited for this split
"That's part of America soon" lmao
Never change Zven
Great content as always, these quizzes are hilarious. I also had no idea how the format worked, and I even watched the videos when they first came out. Lmao.
can’t believe fudge didn’t immediately know the reason we couldn’t name splits after the season 😂
Busio: “their vibes”
That got me
Lmao everyone is guessing until MarkZ just comes in with the answer
I mean he is the league commissioner
Okay...that is, with no exaggeration, the greatest video in the history of the internet. Worth it alone for the MarkZ "First Strike", but then BOOM! The Sven seasons lesson. DO DANG FUNNY! Travis at his best.
I am cracking up over this video LMAO, one of the best made yet. Sven not knowing how seasons worked 💀
"This stuff doesn't matter until I get there" - Zven
Based
"their vibes" 100% confidence
WHERE'S THE SCORE AT THE END OF THE VIDEO WHO WON AND WHO LOST
We won and you lost
I think we all lost... @@TravisGafford
This was a great video, Travis. BIG THUMBS UP
Sniper just so confused out there 😂
This video goes hard, rare to see the pros having a good time doing content.
I feel i came out of this with a far better understanding than with he riot video
This whole interview is priceless but Sven and Sniper are so fucking funny here lol
Long time viewers will be absolutely stunned at Fudges results.
Great video, Travis! 👏🏽👏🏽
show everyone's score at the end of these please so its easy to compare
"its like walmart MSI" -Zven
take a shot every time zven says "type sh*t"
13:43 excuse you mark, EMEA is from svalbard south africa, also both hemispheres.
Zven and Mark Z need to be in a Netflix road trip show
Phreak season in Brazil is peak
Amazing video!
My god bro, what a great video!
I love our pro gamers
7:23 got him 😆
banger video
Zven with the Phreak season.... too funny.
"which country" "san paolo" omg
The problem I’m currently having is the massive changes to format and all the changes to the game. I haven’t played league in years but this is the first time I can’t understand what’s happening on and off the rift
Hahaha this is incredible content
Zven on that type shit type shit.
Not Palafox being the same as Sniper
Freaking Sniper ❤
sniper is always clueless
Maybe someday we will have a league that doesn't completely change format every single year... 🤞
im a member so Drew gets paid
Wait no way Brazil will host worlds
zven is so funny lmfao
I think we are just renaming this first tournament First Strike
Zven "type shit" Svenningsen
So for MSI NA lost a spot to Brazil? lol
Lets be honest, we kinda didn't deserve that spot anyway
Seems simple
+1
first strike
Exyu smurfed it
Maybe I'm just reading into it whatever I want like a fraudster pretending to have a crystal ball, but Markz has this wry grin on his face the whole video like reciting the format is making him realize how bad and needlessly complicated it is
This format is so stupid. The only good thing about it is that they're bringing back promo/relegations
FQ TL C9 one of the LTA North team won’t make it to worlds so bullshit
This format sounds terrible lol
answering before its answered its because when its summer in the USA its winter in south america
