## Resource

Welcome to the MSI Preview presented by The Dive Driven by Kia! If you’ve only been following the LCS so far this year, this episode provides all the background you need as our teams head to Korea and face off against the world’s top talent.

Jose, in particular, has been a standout performer this split, but TLAW will need every player firing on all cylinders if they intend to defeat T1 and advance to the bracket stage.

Beyond their visual appeal, the skins feature additional sound effects that may just inspire you to play, and win, like T1! As impressive as these fresh skins are, we’re curious about your opinion: do you feel like skins are deviating too far from the original silhouettes of champions? Let us know in the comments below! Thanks for tuning in to this episode of The Dive Driven by Kia! We’ll be back on July 6th to break down all the action and…
