Patch 26.11, Coaching Staff of the Split, & LCS Playoffs! | The Dive Driven by Kia
You still have time to get your tickets to Spring Finals!https://mullettarena.com/event/legendschampionship/Patch 26.11 is here, and Azael, Kobe, and Meteos have a LOT of opinions. On this episode of The Dive Driven by Kia, the crew kicks things off by discussing the most recent game-changing adjustments, namely enchanter nerfs and some long-overdue tweaks to under purchased items. They also dive into the Quinn buffs but, rest assured, Kobe isn’t worried about it (or so he says).On the LCS front, both series from Week 2 of Playoffs went the full five games, delivering plenty of gameplay for the gang to unpack. TLAW’s CoreJJ seemed determined to push Inspired’s buttons, forcing him to pivot through aggressive tactics. FlyQuest continues to show up with high energy and creative strategies, entertaining audiences and casters alike. C9, on the other hand, showed a masterclass in team coordination, highlighted by a game-winning Ashe play by Zven.Looking ahead, Week 3 begins with a competitive face-off between FlyQuest and Sentinels. We already know the SEN roster is stacked with talent, but will the fearless Bo5 format open the door for FlyQuest’s inventive drafting to steal the spotlight? We’ll find out this weekend! LCS is back on stage and tickets are available now— we hope to see you there!https://www.tixr.com/groups/lcs/Timestamps:0:00 - Intro & Ticket Callout1:16 - 2026 Coaching Staff of the Split5:29 - Patch 26.1129:58 - FLY vs C9 Recap53:48 - LYON vs TL Recap1:24:51 - FLY vs SEN Lookahead1:36:58 - TLAW vs SR Lookahead

Ban Nasus Jungle | The Dive Driven by Kia
The regular season is over and Spring Playoffs are finally here! On this episode of The Dive Driven by Kia, Azael, Kobe, and Meteos open with a deeper discussion about LYON’s in-game comms. While it may seem toxic to some, there’s a level of understanding between the pros- friendship & flaming can go hand in hand when players aren’t afraid to step on eggshells while communicating. How do you prefer to express yourself with your teammates?Dhokla and Saint are still competing for LYON’s top lane spot, while FLY’s Gryffinn pulled out a Nasus jungle that hasn’t been seen in LCS pro play since 2013. Despite C9’s undefeated regular season, one of the rarer accomplishments in the LCS, the team is still trying to earn back fans’ trust after their performance at Americas Cup. Meanwhile, the top five teams all look dangerously competitive heading into playoffs, and even with Contractz bringing out his signature Olaf, SR still enters the bracket as the underdogs.After breaking down last week’s matches, our hosts lock in their Round 1 Playoff predictions. Can FLY’s champion pool find a way past the seemingly unconquerable C9? And in the highly anticipated rematch between TLAW and LYON, will revenge be on the table?Oh, and leave a comment for what Kobe should paint on Raz’s face on broadcast this Saturday.
