Rogue finished 1st in the 2020 Summer regular season and went to Worlds but still struggle to get much recognition in public narratives. The team’s General Manager, Tomislav “flyy” Mihailov, joins the show to talk about his experience in 2020, building the team’s 2021 roster, negative community sentiment around Top laner Finn, and much more.
The 100 Thieves organization benefited in several ways from running an amateur team in 2020, but were those benefits big enough to justify the investment and effort? And have they actually seen those benefits materialize in any real way so far, or are the benefits mostly theoretical and future-based?
NOTE: I didn’t discuss Poome in this video, and I should have given the 100T Next program credit for “discovering” him in the Spring split and advancing him into Academy and the LCS team in the Summer.
