@DShyKnock Can't lie - a big reason I didn't leave esports journalism is that I was promised I'd never have to doing sponsored gambling content at HotSpawn.

I've worked close enough to gambling sites at a few times that I've heard how they talk about the sport: the house is not your friend

@deicideares SMH people say Deadlock isn’t an esport in prerelease. Why do we already have a grooming scandal then?

Checkmate, atheists.

@razlol @LCSOfficial @KangasCasts This right here is how you sell a hit, people.

@speedygrapes Playing white noise into my discord room so that nobody can hear the crowd

@lolesports The one closest to my heart will always be "What if Misfits beat SKT"

@deicideares Shooting won't go down IMO, it will just change what profiles we see. You're going to see a lot more Plasma-style guns that live at 18", and anything with a fire and fade gun is top notch with the hidden rules. As a generally shooting-pilled player, I think it just changes shape

@deicideares Also at that point like...I'm kinda tempted to just take Intercessors. (Especially in Ultras where you can Wardens of Macragge brick them)

Toss 'em oath and they'll do similar enough things tbh

@arshgoyal13 Best I can do is Curtis Sliwa on the analyst desk for game 5

@sebdot You know, I think we stand better odds if we try to 2v1 the big three-oh.

@arshgoyal13 Andor best Star Wars tho

[Nicholas James | HotSpawn LCS | AoW 40k socials | @NicholasISJ]

@arshgoyal13 I will take the weird campy space opera, for all its flaws, over the floaty CGI of the prequels. (Not even gonna talk about sequels)

There's a lot more heart in what's essentially a recent film student doing a weird Kurosawa space opera. 4-6 are just less afraid to be campy

@doc_respawn @itskaplan @deicideares @MazelCasts @HawkCasts @KangasCasts @Joushi_TV Now we're cooking

[Nicholas James | HotSpawn LCS | AoW 40k socials | @NicholasISJ]

@deicideares @itskaplan @doc_respawn @MazelCasts @HawkCasts @KangasCasts @Joushi_TV We have, if I may be so bold, some of the single best Aeldari players on the planet between Typhus and Nick.

[Nicholas James | HotSpawn LCS | AoW 40k socials | @NicholasISJ]

@itskaplan @doc_respawn @deicideares @MazelCasts @HawkCasts @KangasCasts @Joushi_TV Ah - can't DM, pop me one whenever and I'll happily connect you with Nick Nanavati and the podcast team

[Nicholas James | HotSpawn LCS | AoW 40k socials | @NicholasISJ]

@itskaplan @doc_respawn @deicideares @MazelCasts @HawkCasts @KangasCasts @Joushi_TV No worries, I'll pop you a DM, maybe we can help be a catalyst to get you further in! :)

I'm sure we'd still love to have you on to talk about coaching

@doc_respawn @_Beora @razlol @leagueofemily I'm hearing we need Los Raztones and Los Randtones
