How Karmine Corp Failed Despite Having The Best Roster... (ft Zaboutine)

In this episode, Thorin welcomes Zaboutine as a temporary co-host to fill in while YamatoCannon is unable to appear on the show due to his coaching role with LoL Esports team Los Ratones. They dive into the philosophy behind Hot Take Point Made, discussing how intentionally extreme takes can be a “safe zone” for wild opinions that still have solid reasoning underneath, and how that style can bleed into every part of life once you get used to constantly escalating your takes. They also reflect on the volatility of community perception in esports—how analysts, coaches, and creators can be hailed as geniuses one day and written off the next—using Zaboutine’s French community reception and Thorin’s long history with TSM fans as prime examples.
