Everyone knows not to take the LCS All-Pro Team, Coach of the Split, and MVP votes as perfect signifiers of the region's strongest. However, there were three major snubs this year... Read more here:
We've seen plenty of non-traditional strategies in pro play, and especially from Cloud9, who have locked in a brand new pair of champions, Lux and Sona. Get an in-depth look at the strategy here:
Jensen has had a fairly long, storied career, coming to the League Championship Series as Cloud9's starting Mid Laner in 2015. In his LCS debut, he beat rival org, TSM, despite trailing behind Bjergsen throughout the game, leaving him with a criticism that he could not keep up with the league's best, one he wouldn't shake for many years.

Team Liquid Mid Laner Nicolaj "Jensen" Jensen spoke to Inven Global's Nick Geracie about TL's Spring Spilt, his individual performance throughout the season thus far, and Edward "Tactical" Ra starting in place of Yiliang "Doublelift" Peng after the latter joined TSM in the 2020 LCS Summer Split.

With Worlds 2019 around the corner, the team decided to bootcamp in The Netherlands. We went for a visit and talked to the five Liquid players. While enjoying a Dutch treat, 'pepernoten', they discussed their thoughts on other teams, and what the team itself still could improve on. They also played two games to reveal more about themselves individually, and about each other as teammates. It became an interview filled with banter and trolling, though through the cracks of it all honesty and passion showed.
Team Liquid addressed the media in a post-match press conference to discuss the win, the 2019 LCS Regional Final, and Worlds 2019.
