No Luxembourgs in Bohemia and Hundred Years War

I heard that the Luxembourgs in Bohemia supported the Valois in the Hundred Years War, what if the Premyslids survive and have two branches - A Polish branch from Przemysl III, Richeza Elisabeth's son and Bohemian branch descended from Wenceslaus III, how would this effect the progression of the 100 years war?
 
It would barely change when it would come to the general view : Bohemian ressources proper weren't that much used, but rather John's German holdings' (especially Luxemburg), with his forces mostly showing up for the period before Crécy and Crécy itself. While John I campaign in Aquitaine wasn't badly done, it was eventually unsucessful, Bordeaux resisting French assaults.

John I basically joined with Valois because of the important diplomatical activity they demonstrated (and will continue eventually) and because he gravitated around Valois court since decades.

Yes, the counts of Luxemburg (etc.) had indeed gravitated towards the French court before that. By becoming an Imperial dynasty and gaining the kingdom of Bohemia, they, though still close, now also had interests of their own.

Anyway they'd still support the house of Valois, but their relationship towards the house of Valois will obviously stay different. They'll remain in position of vassalage, rather than obtaining a more equal position.
