    LYON's Fight & NA's Chance to Bounce Back at First Stand | The Dive Driven by Kia

    On this episode of The Dive Driven by Kia we’re graced with a special guest; Commissioner MarkZ stopped by to chat about Spring Split details and help our hosts find the silver lining after Americas Cup. While NA teams didn’t have their best showing, there were important learnings and stress tests leading up to First Stand and MSI. There’s always a rebound angle, right? And speaking of First Stand, the tournament kicks off next week! We’re looking to our leading Lyons to bring us to victory, though there’s definitely some TOUGH competition ahead of us from the other regions (looking at you, GenG!) Get ready for 6 straight days of double best-of-5s- more League of Legends than you could even dream of! Finally, though there will be no new episodes of The Dive until April… you CAN keep up with our hosts as they may or may not taking over the @LCSOfficial socials to bring you content straight from Brazil during First Stand! We’ll see you there.

    Patch 26.5, Lock-In Finals Recap & Americas Cup Preview! | The Dive Driven by Kia

    This week’s episode of The Dive Driven by Kia begins with a lengthy conversation about the play-off finals: Lyon vs Cloud9 Kia. After battling through three separate Bo5s this weekend, Lyon caused quite the upset in our hosts’ week one power rankings. Two teams have punched their tickets to the Americas Cup, while one powerhouse team is headed to First Stand… but it may not be who we originally thought! Plus, the players will be working with the newest release: Patch 26.5. With plenty of item buffs, Kobe is looking forward to more flexibility in builds for a wide range of characters. There's also midlane nerfs, could it be enough to shake up the pro scene? Finally, our hosts noted how many amazing fans of The Dive they were able to meet this past weekend! Seeing the energy and support at the live events means the world to both the casters and players. Thanks for coming by!
