It's Time to Talk with: Rhythm - Time on NLC's Rich Gang and dated aspects of amateur LoL

Описание: We're back with another show and today we've got Joshua "Rhythm" Ellis-Stygal, winner and MVP of 2025 UKEL 4 Nations Winter with Venomcrest Serpents and recently played in NLC with Rich Gang. We have a wonderful discussion involving topics from his past such as his time at the UK Insomnia LAN's, the philosophy of playing one role or another, and the difficulties of recruitment in amateur LoL. Hope you all enjoy!

Also Rhythm's camera will be fucked for a bit in the first fifteen minutes from a mistake with discord I made, but after that it gets fixed. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Also also I don't know if I'll make these consistent, I'm going to likely just do them whenever I feel like or whenever I find another guest.
