The International is over. This podcast is late. …Sorry >.< It works out though, because this episode we recorded last week is better than anything we’d have to say on this boring week of no news and nothing. Team Liquid have done it! New heroes approach! Optimistic wishes for the next patch! We’re on iTunes, …
You’re not the boss of me! …Sorry, that’s what I’ve got. This week, we’re diving into… METAL GEAR?!
