The league of legends championship is in the usa this year.. and we booked the largest private box in the stadium @MeckaAI cofounder @jasontheutopian and first engineer Anthony, both ranked challenger as top 50 players in the world So we’re inviting 30 elite engineers, researchers and operators to join us in the ownership suite to watch the finals front and center Anyone with world-class skill in a video game, not just in league, send us your rank or evidence of exceptional ability in what you do The championship is nov 14 at the barclays center in new york Apply by Nov 8.

Your best engineer is playing League of Legends rn Getting Challenger (top 0.01%) in League of Legends is objectively more difficult than getting a job at OpenAI/Anthropic. You can get the latter by grinding for 5 years. You can't for League. Hire those born with talent. Hire a League player.

Fun event. Got to team up with @esports_kobe and even casted for the first time. We lost to @QwackerLoL and @SamIsDual’s team, who went on to win the tournament. Huge thanks to @nicole_clash and @lindictive for putting it together. Also met a lot of awesome people in tech.
The SF Invitational We brought together a hyper curated group of cracked builders who used to be high elo gamers and made them unretire for a day. Was fun hosting, good to see everyone 😄

Hey league folks, I've been enjoying retirement and spent the last month building Recall.gg, a web app that uses AI to transcribe scrim VODs into searchable timestamped segments for more efficient review. Demo below for anyone interested. youtu.be/5MuJDA3pIvg

"We did [use the practice tool] 1 night in particular against BO. Our atakhan setups were just terrible, so we just ran 25 atakhan setups over and over again. @QwackerLoL was just lighting me on fire on rumble over and over. We did baron setups in a similar way." I havent really heard of any teams using the practice tool in scrims so its cool seeing TL last year using it. I know @LSXYZ9 was talking about how its underutilized in pro play earlier this year. I wonder if any other teams have found different ways to use it

Hello, after the EMEA conclusion i am LFT for 2026 as both HC and AC, mainly in EU but also interested in both Americas. Best at youth development but can pretty much fill any capacity needed as coach. I prefer long interviews to determine compatibility with the project. 1/2
