Shiranami Ramune streamed about eight hours of League of Legends practice for the LTK tournament, working through drafts and scrim games with her group before the last day of the regular stage, which she said was the next day.

The session opened with talk of lane matchups, runes and builds, and the group went through how to answer different enemy compositions, including which champions were likely to be banned. Over the first several hours they played practice games and reviewed them as they went. One game ended in a victory screen about three and a half hours in, and after another, a participant said a teammate’s play had improved markedly since the previous session.

The scrims wrapped up at about four and a half hours, and the group then went through the games with feedback on lane timing, when to back off and what to buy. Chat opened the stream with encouragement to put real effort into the practice, and one viewer wrote, “It’s great how you always end on a win.”

The talk then turned to how soon the season was ending, to the offline event and to what might follow it. Later the group watched a fellow participant eat a spread of insect snacks on his own stream, among them one large grub, and groaned along with the attempt. Mayhem games followed, and the last game ended in a win with a triple kill.

Ramune closed by thanking viewers for six Super Chats and for new memberships. She said the regular stage’s last day was the next day and that she wanted to give it her best, and she spoke of looking ahead to the offline event.
