    Worldwide, but LA-Centric

    Hey there GGWP-ers! Magical, Chase and Pira are back to bring you all the esports news and views once again. We talk about the LCS and LEC, and the news about MSI being delayed over the Coronavirus. Chase has some strong opinions on the timing, and Magical unleashes his Big Brain(™) to applaud himself on Janna Top becoming a thing. After the break, we talk about the new Fiddlesticks design, and how Magical is planning his World Domination over the next two years. TFT is getting a showcase tournament, but Chase doesn’t think this means it will have an esports scene. We’re all conflicted on the new ranking of Na’vi as the #1 team in the world, and the discussion wraps with the launch of Call of Duty’s Warzone BR mode.

    The Valor Rant

    Hey there GGWP-ers! This week, Magical is back, and the boys go over recent results in the LCS, and the LEC. The LPL is coming back too, but the LCK is suspended over the Coronavirus. Also, apparently, there’s a cult in Korea that’s partially responsible for it’s spread?? Speaking of the virus, we talk about MSI, and how/where/if Riot will be able to still pull it off. After the break, the guys talk about the shiny new shooter on the block, Valorant! Then there’s the decision by Riot to shut down the boards --- Magical gives us a proper eulogy, and waxes poetic about armored bears. TFT’s 3rd set is happening soon in a Galaxy quite close to us, and EVERYONE is impressed by s1mple’s performance at IEM Katowice. Finally, Epic Fails returns, with the Fortnite developer crying “fake news” over an industry report.

    A Chase Theory

    Hey there, GGWP-ers! Chase and Pira team up this week (Magical is unfortunately sick) to talk about all things LCS, LEC, and esports around the world! First, they talk about Pira’s experience in the LCS press room last week, and give a few peeks behind the interview curtain. After the break, the guys talk about Dumbledoge’s retirement, the homophobia he’s faced, and the (lack of) response from Riot Turkey. A Project A community twitter account gets confused as a fake-official account, and Valve decides it’s time to be the LCS. Halo Infinity Esports are making moves, and Chase tries out the Game Theory motto for himself. Lastly, are the developers at Infinity Ward trying to sabotage the COD World League?? GGWP LCS/LEC Power Rankings - @ 12:50 Lindsay Ellis’ YT channel - @ 30:00 Dumbledoge opens up about retirement, experience with Homophobia - @ 36:45 “Project A” Community Twitter account mistaken as fake/official, jebaits fans - @ 43:00 Blazing Saddles - @ 43:30 Valve adds regional leagues for Dota Pro Circuit - @ 45:00 Halo Esports announces Esports Engine to run Halo Infinite events - @ 51:30 Infinity Ward devs vs COD Esports - @ 55:20 Get in touch with @TheGGWPod on twitter!

    Ban Nazis, #FreeS8n

    Buenos días, GGWP-ers! For our 30th episode, we’re truly putting the ‘Worldwide’ in our name, covering three different pro LoL regions, as well as OWL and CWL. We even dip into the ninth circle of hell (no, not twitter, the other one). Kicking things off, Chase wonders why we’re watching the LCS, and we all disagree on how good Keith McBrief is. Speaking of strong opinions, Chase and Pira both hate Soraka Top, and Magical BigBrains up a replacement champion, but is it worse? After the break, we cover the start of the season in the LCK, and how it’s different without Papasmithy (or the fans). Also, What the F*ck is going on with OWL? The buzz and the viewership both seem to be missing. Oh well, at least things are looking up for the COD World League, mostly. We all question if we are, in fact, the baddies, before talking about Twitter selectively enforcing their rules. LCS Catchup, where things stand - @ 3:00 LEC Catchup - @ 19:30 LCK check-in - @ 35:00 OWL season kick off, and (lack of) hype, viewership - @ 39:30 Juked.gg Shoutout - @ 45:10 CS:GO peak player base up - 46:30 CWL second week viewer peak up, average down - @ 49:00 S8n signed to Rogue as “Pro Tweeter”, gets banned from twitter - @ 53:45 FPS Pros are *really* excited about Project A - @ 58:00 Henry G talks about Project A - @ 61:30 GGWP LCS/LEC Power Rankings (preseason) Follow the GGWP @TheGGWPod on twitter, and send us your thoughts, or what you'd like to hear about in a future episode!

    Untitled Goose Episode

    *HONK* We’re back, with the first 3-man pod of 2020! The Mad Maverick Magical joins Chase and Pira to give us BigBrain(™) analysis from the first week of the LCS and LEC, as well as looking ahead! Everyone is meh on Monday Night League, and Chase’s Concerns have been co-opted by everyone else. After the break, the guys discuss the implications of the recent Youtube/Activision esports deal, and how the Call of Duty league’s opening weekend went down. Magical can’t believe some of the CWL team names, and we up the trainwreck ante with the news about the guy who sued for being muted in a videogame. Finally, we end on the least controversial topic of the week by previewing the CS:GO Blast Premier series!
