Stream Team Takes on LEC’s Mad Lions in Exciting Showmatch
Have you ever wondered what would happen if a stream team faced off against professional players in a League of Legends showmatch? Well, wonder no more.
The outspoken Draven expert Tyler “Tyler1” Steinkamp is teaming up with his Twitch Rivals partners to take on the LEC’s Mad Lions (formerly known as Splyce) in an epic exhibition match. Get ready to witness the clash on Saturday, Jan. 11, at 1pm CT.
The Feud and the Challenge
It all began when Team Tyler1’s jungler Christian “IWDominate” Rivera called out Mad Lions on Twitter, mocking their relatively low number of followers. The response from Mad Lions was swift and direct – they proposed a showmatch. In their own words, “We’re in North America this weekend and would be happy to show you that having a Twitter following doesn’t always equal skill.”
IWDominate was taken aback by the proposal, but he still accepted the challenge. In his response, he threw down his own gauntlet and said, “If you want to prove that Twitter following does not equal skill, then beat G2 next split and I’ll shut up. That being said, I’ll be 100% willing to play against your team in a showmatch.”
The Underdogs and the Rookie Lions
While Team Tyler1 might be considered underdogs in this matchup, Mad Lions shouldn’t underestimate them. The Mad Lions team is made up of rookies who have yet to experience the big stage, despite being part of the prestigious LEC. The confident and bold attitude of Tyler1 and his Twitch comrades may just be enough to rattle their opponents’ cages and push them out of their comfort zones.
Where to Watch
The showmatch will be broadcasted on Mad Lions’ official Twitch stream. The stream will feature the team’s head coach, James MacCormack, along with commentary from James “Stress” O’Leary and LCS play-by-play caster, Clayton “CaptainFlowers” Raines. Tune in and catch all the action!
