Every coach has his own philosophy, style, and understanding of the way to guide his team. During week 5 of the EU LCS, I sat down with several European coaches to dig into their approach to the bot lane meta upheaval, from how it has affected their weekly preparation to their process for deciding how hard their team should commit to the “new normal.”
Thank you to Moose and Jesiz from Misfits, Grabbz and Duffman from G2, Peter from Splyce, Guilhoto from Schalke, and Kubz from Giants for sharing their thoughts. You can listen to the full audio from each coach below.

Recently, I picked the brains of some NA LCS coaches about drafting strategy, the new Rift Herald, and more. Each coach had their own set of insights, and rather than condense them and lose the unique elements, I’ve decided to share the raw audio of all three interviews below in full. Enjoy!
Core Questions

The importance of flex picks to the draft.
How has Rift Herald affected the viability of playing around top lane?
What are the best ways to use the Rift Herald buff?
