Emily Wang did not have a good night. The streamer vented live on stream after she and her teammates reportedly spent around three hours waiting for Summit1g to join a scheduled League of Legends practice session.

The scrim was tied to prep for an AT&T-sponsored creator tournament, a multi-game event with a reported $200,000 prize pool. Summit1g was drafted onto the team captained by Tyler1, who is known for taking creator competitions very seriously.

According to viewers watching both streams, Summit1g never properly showed up to League of Legends. Instead, he was on Rust, supposedly testing his audio and tweaking settings while the rest of the squad sat in queue waiting.

It was apparently the second day in a row of no-shows. The day before, Summit1g reportedly missed practice because his PC had bricked, forcing him to swap out his CPU, RAM, and GPU and reinstall drivers and games from scratch. Fair enough, hardware dies. But day two is where the patience ran out.

League is not Summit1g’s happy place

Emily’s frustration on stream was less about the missed practice itself and more about the lack of communication. The team had blocked out time, showed up ready to play, and got nothing back.

There may be a reason Summit1g was dodging the client. He is an FPS and survival guy at heart, with roots in Counter-Strike and big audiences in Rust and GTA RP. League of Legends is not his game, and he may want to skip fighting in the Rift.
