Meeting

Hello, I'm Lance, the League of Legends Coordinator for the Yale Undergraduate Esports Club, and a member of Yale's A League team. I'm looking forward to future stacked tournaments!

Intro

Hi all! My name is Josh (aka TheLeagueDad) and I’m the founder and one of the co-hosts of The All In Podcast. We are a League of Legends podcast that discusses the most popular fan opinions around the LCS. Besides that, I’m a huge LCS fan and am passionate about being in community with other fans but in a non elitist way. I think it is super fun bantering back and forth and discussing different takes on teams and players. Looking forward to getting to know all of you!

Hello everyone

Hey all - I'm Mike, current Director of Competitive Esports at Immortals/IGC. My claim to fame is working with the 2016 CLG LCS team, and making them spend four weeks of playoff prep time looking for a cinderblock (it worked btw).



I've worked across most major titles (LCS, CSGO &amp; OWL) in some form of development and management capacity over the past six years. Now I spend most of my time reading reddit and one tricking GP.

Hello Hello, happy to be here on stacked! I'm a former pro League player and now currently at UC Irvine! Some of my favorite things to do are watch anime and read manga. Also streaming! I am also really enjoying running league tournaments and creating guide content for league. 

Hello! 

Hi there I'm Cheeyoon, a designer with a background in architecture, currently working on a cool lil app. My gf started playing league over quarantine and got me to play a few games here and there. Sorry in advance for feeding. I'm curious to see what Stacked is all about.

What's good

What's up I'm David. My biggest accomplishment in life is hitting Grandmaster in SC2 WoL. Challenger backseat in League. I main'd Tristana is Season 2 before it was cool. Now I only play point and click junglers so that I can browse Reddit while clearing camps. I try to be giga positive in my games but I get reported a lot because people think I'm being sarcastic T_T. Working @Kippo to connect the global gaming community.

Hey everyone!

My name is Matt, I'm on the editorial team here at Stacked and on top of writing articles with an emphasis on the LCS scene, I'm also Stacked's LCS post-game interviewer! I've loved MOBAs for a long time, but I didn't get into League until a few years ago. The more I've learned about it, the more I've loved it.

In the past, I would primarily try to learn a majority of the champions to see who I really liked, but I always wound up coming back to bot lane, alternating my life between being a person who filled any role and a Jhin one-trick. I still have to do my placements (rip) but I'm probably bronze or silver skill level at the moment.

In my interviews, I love talking about post-game content and what players are focusing on, but I also enjoy learning about them and what they want to do in the future, along with what they're focusing on tangential to their pro careers. If you have any questions, comments or curiosities about me or my work, feel free to shoot me a DM on twitter (@ThibaultNotTebo) or you can add and message me on Discord, ThibaultNotTebo#2535. 

I'm excited to see you all here, and I look forward to seeing you in the threads!

Swinging in to say Hi!

I personally think the LEC is killing it with their on air talent and all around production value. The LCS in particular could learn a lot from them in my opinion in terms of the content that is produced. Would you like to see more of those kinds of things on other broadcasts, like the LPL or LCK? Or is it more that working remotely restricts these kinds of things from happening? 

🤔

What are some things you've love to see from League broadcasts?

Hi everyone! This is Cheery (@cheeryio) from Vancouver, B.C. I am currently a Social Media Manager at Team Liquid, specifically working on the League of Legends channels. 

I am a bronze support. 

Happy to be here and I am excited to see where Stacked goes! :) Really excited about all the coverage that Stacked already does with our players and hopefully it shifts the future of coverage for all esports content and discussion.

Hello to the people of Stacked! 

Hello, I'm Ryan and I am a collegiate League of Legends player.
I've played competitive League since 16, but now I'm just trying to graduate and enjoy life.

Introduction

I mean, they're not playing the greatest League of Legends in the world, not even close. But deep down I have this feeling that sooner or later they will stomp. I'm not sure if they can smurf the entire league (C9 and 100T looking good too), but it just seems weird seeing them playing like this. 

It has to improve, right? Eventually, at some point?

Feel weird about TSM

What does everyone think about the results on Day 1 - more specifically TSM vs FLY and TL vs IMT? I feel like teams coming into the new season with roster changes are usually weaker at the start of the season but end up gelling and ramping up over time, becoming strong contenders at playoff time.
Were the upsets a one-time type deal, underdog miracles? Or are there underlying issues at play within these top teams? Discuss below!

LCS Day 1 Results Discussion

What do you guys think about this? It would certainly make NA stronger as a whole, but the league would become pretty quickly dominated by the teams with the biggest budgets. Would Riot have to implement salary caps/luxury tax along with the move?

At a minimum, this would hurt non-franchised regions where teams have a harder time competing on salary.

I'm enjoying watching all the fresh OPL/LLA talent in LCS so I'd welcome the move but can't imagine everyone is happy with it.

LCS Owners Lobbying to Remove Import Limits

Hello everyone! 

I'm currently an engineer at Oculus and a LoL coordinator/coach for Facebook CEA (Corporate Esports Association) where companies play against each other for charities. 

I've played the game since season 2 and am currently enjoying support (Diamond currently). Excited to meet everyone and stay up to date with the latest about LoL on this amazing platform!

Hi! I'm Keming

Hi there. I'm Mark Deppe and I direct the esports program at UC Irvine. If you're a good student, interested in a great college degree, and want to keep playing LoL competitively, I'd love to chat. 

Hello from Irvine

My name is Nathan Ryan, I'm known as TheOddOrange in the League of Legends community. I'm currently attending Maryville University to play for their League of Legends team. I'm a streamer and a challenger jungler who has played professionally for Echo Fox and Team Liquid in the past. I'll be hanging out around this community to stay up to date with everything League of Legends related!

Hey everyone! 

Hi all, my name is Tim. Alex invited me so here I am. I've worked in the pro league of legends industry for some time and here's my journey so far:

-Started at C9 as an analyst for LCS / coach for challenger team
-Became assistant coach for Echo Fox, then head coach
-Then head coach for TL Academy
-Then head coach excel UK
-Lastly, head acad coach EG 
 
Currently taking a break. My favorite coach/former player is GoldenGlue. He's really good at the game. 

I am blinking twice as I write this.

Hi I'm Tim, ex-acad EG coach, ex-Excel UK head coach, etc

Hi, I'm Bryan, I'm a student studying CS at UC Berkeley. I'm an ex-Challenger player from S4-S6 and peaked top 10 in Season 4. I play top lane and my favorite champion is Rumble and Gnar. I currently keep up with LCS/LCK and I am very excited to meet you all!

Hello, I'm Bryan. S4-6 Challenger, ex-TL

Hey guys, I'm the COO &amp; Co-President of Gen.G. Joining this community to get to know the pro / collegiate scene better and answer any questions you guys have about LCK/LoL semi-pro scene/the best Korean Fried Chicken spots. 

Looking forward to getting to know everybody here!

What's up guys? This is Arnold from Gen.G

Yes, the first game just ended and Cloud9 could comeback, but right now, I think TL is 2 or 3 steps ahead of any other team on the LCS. CoreJJ and Tactical have some competition on the league, but overall I think there's no team that could match TL in the rest of the lanes, or even as a whole team. They are well balanced, the characteristics of each player allow them to think of more than one game plan without inconvenience.
 
I will delete this if C9 eventually wins. 
 
But it will not happen.
 
Unless...

Team Liquid is just too good. 

I know the generic answer is TL, but lets be honest. C9 isn't playing to their full potential, and it feels like TL is. I really think that aside from TL's bot and mid, they struggle a lot vs good aggressive teams. Although we haven't seen it yet, I think that if somehow C9 can get an early lead vs TL, they may be able to take the series.
C9s roster is probably the strongest all around with the exception of toplane, but with how well Zven and Vulcan have been playing as of late, it wouldn't surprise me to see some really good action down in the botlane tomorrow. 
Let me know what you all think. 

Who is the strongest LCS team so far in the Lock in tournament. 

Hey all, I'm Coach Mike. S6-S7 Challenger, ex-Head Coach of a few teams who now spends his time working on building up this great community. I've been a coach for the last 2 years as well building up my game knowledge and teaching some of the best and brightest players to lead NA. 

Stacked has a lot of features and applications that I believe will excite a lot of my friends that I invite to this platform, and make sure you guys spread the word to all whom you think would be a good fit for this community.

I work on community building and managing, and I also give input to writers about their content. I hope everyone enjoys what we've been working on and special shoutout to the team and all their hard work.

Expect big things from us coming soon. 

P.S. Alex Lin is Forbes under 30 Notable entrepreneurs and is best friends with Pokimane. One of these things is true. 

Hey all, I'm Coach Mike. S6-S7 Challenger, ex-Head Coach of a few teams

What is up everyone, I'm Sean and I'm super stoked for Stacked.

I used to stream on Twitch under Seanic, I've played League for 10 years and now super addicted to Riot's new game Valorant.  I was born into a family of gamers stemming from my grandparents playing Super Metroid to my parents playing Sonic Adventure / Super Mario 64.  Naturally by growing up in the gaming era I gravitated towards competitive games to see where I stand.

I love video games today as much as I did when I was three.  My biggest complaint in gaming isn't the game itself but rather the lack of solid media surrounding games.  Either the data isn't correct, is written by someone who doesn't play the game / only focused on views, is difficult to find OR is just on an outdated website.  Stacked will be the modern hub for all things gaming / media, the app everyone wants but no one has built out yet with the right vision in mind.  

Sup I'm Seanic, ex-Twitch Streamer and Co-Founder of Kippo

I'm Alec and I'm currently working on engineering and product at Stacked. I previously worked at Visa and Grailed (🔥 for all). I was also pretty good at League of Legends when I was in high school - when I was 16 I was scouted for Cloud9's Challenger team (alongside Licorice) and became a substitute player for Team Liquid's LCS team.  

Some other things about me:  
-I'm studying Computer Science and Sociology at University of California, Irvine (temporarily on leave)  
-I'm born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area   
-I love all genres of music (hip hop, R&B, indie, pop, etc.) feel free to recommend me your favorite artists or albums!  
-I'm a poker enthusiast, but I'm super awful  
-I love skiing, did my first black diamond runs last winter

Hey everyone, I'm Alec. S6-7 Challenger, ex-C9, TL

Hi everyone. Gustavo (Calihea) here. Welcome to Stacked and we hope to see you guys frequently.

My name is Gustavo Toselli, I'm 29 yo and I'm from Argentina. I worked with Riot Games LATAM the past 4 and a half years, going from writing esports articles to Content Director for the LLA broadcast. I was... kinda bored, needed a new challenge, Stacked appeared and I jumped right in. 

I'm the SMM for Stacked, so if you see any weird tweet or meme, it was me. And if you have anything weird to post, hit me up.

Hey, it's Calihea. Social Media Manager at Stacked

Hey everyone!  

First off, I want to thank you all for signing up for Stacked and becoming a member. The Stacked team put a lot of effort into building this website, and every signup we get has us jumping out of our seats in excitement. It’s always a scary feeling publicly launching something you’ve been building for months, but as we finally start to open our digital doors, we’re hopeful you’ll like what you see. You’re all part of the Day 1 gang and we can’t wait to build this community with you.  

A quick intro on myself: 
I’m a 29 year old tech entrepreneur from the SF Bay Area (now in LA) that has been building startups (some have worked, some haven’t) for around 10 years. When I decided to start another company, I told myself that this one would be my last one. Because of this, it needed to be something I was really passionate about so I could work on it for the rest of my life. As a lifelong gamer, this brought me to explore opportunities in esports.  

I grew up (and frankly learned how to swear) on Starcraft and CS 1.6. I first got my taste of competitive esports when I qualified for WCG China in Warcraft 3 as a human player. To me, this was a big deal because there really wasn’t a competitive scene or even a local circuit I could play in at the time. For all my ladder grind, all I really had to show for it was a free mouse from a small peripherals startup at the time called Razer (it was the DeathAdder, and I still use the model to this day.) Fast forward 15 years later, I can’t believe teams like Team Liquid, SK Gaming, and Evil Genuises (that used to literally just be a forum) are legitimate $100M+ sports organizations.

Despite all this progress in esports, we felt like little innovation has been made for the fans and the ever growing amateur scene. After 15 years, we’re still discussing on old school forums purpose built for any type of community. Can’t we do better?

Because of this, we created Stacked, a members-only community for lolesports fanatics. Here, you can expect a community free of burner accounts and trolls; you’ll meet players and interesting people in the industry that you’d actually want to meet. Beyond this, we’ll also be adding new features and ways to watch, play, and celebrate all things related to lolesports with your fellow community members.

To achieve this goal, we’ve raised $3M in investment capital from firms such as Greenoaks Capital (main investor in Discord) and friends such as Steve Mescon (Pendragon) and Aneel Ranadive (Owner, Sacramento Kings).


A quick intro on our team:  

Our small (yet mighty) team is comprised of the following people. If you see us around on the site, feel free to say hi or ask for help!

-@yusanlol (Product Engineer Intern)  
-@coachmike (Community Manager)  
-@calihea (Social Media Manager)  
-@ryguy (Chief of Staff)  
-@rauchp (Engineer)  
-@lucifel (Engineer)  
-@alex (Designer, CEO)  

Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope to see you around often! Leave a comment below and I’ll be sure to respond. If you want to reach me directly, add me on Discord at “alex#1674”.

Best,
Alex

PS - you’re awesome if you write an introductory post as well.
