On this week’s episode of The Dive Driven by Kia, we’re looking forward to LCS Superweek! Friday (yes, we said Friday), Saturday, and Sunday each feature a best-of-five showdown live from the Riot Games Arena in Los Angeles!

Starting by breaking down the jungle-heavy patch, Meteos declares an insta-ban on Graves. Shifting to the standings, power rankings have been shaken. Confidence in TLAW wavers while the performance from DSG exceeds previous expectations. After getting schooled by Cloud9, will FlyQuest bounce back and apply the lessons they learned against LYON?

Leave it to Azael, Kobe, and Meteos to break down another packed week of League of Legends news on The Dive Driven by Kia! It seems more and more likely that Deft may make a triumphant return from military service, while Los Ratones’ playoff hopes are officially over in the LEC. The buzz around LCK’s Coach Comms led our hosts to ponder: are players practicing in scrims like they’re playing on stage? Some clearly are… Darkwings and Huhi are showing up for Sentinels and KryRa looks right at home with DSG. With week one of playoffs here, audiences are left with one final question: which team is going to make a full run?
LCS returns on Valentine’s Day, Saturday, February 14th at 1pm PT/4pm ET for SEN vs DSG. We’ll see you there!

This episode of The Drive Driven by Kia begins with a check-in pit stop with Europe; where, shockingly, Los Ratones won… again?! Next, Kobe, Azael, and Meteos break down everything you need to know in Patch 26.3: Mel’s rework, Phase Rush buff, adjusted gold collection, and more! Meanwhile, NA pro-play has us asking quite a few questions: Is jungle out of control? Dignitas finally has a full roster, but what does that mean for their performance? And… what is Saint doing? With our final round of the Swiss Bracket and the Last Chance elimination match this weekend, we may get some answers. Oh, and have you heard of Literal “Word” Champion?
