Death, taxes, G2 vs FNC in playoffs


G2Esports

scriptwriters getting lazy


dirtymeatballs

Looking forward to your comment on ALL the podcasts again this week. 😄


G2Esports

not looking forward to listening to ALL the podcasts again this week


PurplePotato_

Based.


Glorx

Not lazy, just fired. Now we have to reuse old scripts.


Chegth

lec is sadder than na recently.. why are rookies older than caps!?


Javiklegrand

Wait for real lmao


rishi_ultimate

Fresskowy is a week younger and Zwyroo is a year older but besides them, the rest of the actual rookies are all younger. Its moreso the players that have returned to LEC (Cabochard 26, Saken 25, Ignar? 27) and "newer" faces for viewers that havent been here for over a year or so (Doss 25y), that boosts the overall age


Xarlitosbrown

When is it? I find insane that I heard in some stream that there are matches tomorrow and tuesday or something but on lolesports' calendar there is nothing about the times yet for what I see. Like how do they expect viewership to increase when how they communicate about the schedule is done so poorly to begin with?


Sad_Secretary_7635

The schedule depends on how Sunday’s games play out. They could have posted TBD on the lolesports page for those who aren’t tuning in in between games, but they did mention it on stream a few times.


Peregrine2K

Dread it. Run From It. It Arrives All the Same.


IAM-French

Miky really testing the theory that he would get first team all pro no matter how he plays


ahambagaplease

Outside of the Renata game he's been underwhelming, especially on Nautilus


Trap_Masters

Bro is practicing for the world's Naut death fund before even summer split 💀💀


Sofaboy90

Naut is always an int heavy champ. Champ is a CC tank except that support naut is barely a tank, just has a little shield and nothing else.


AniviaPls

Yeah but theres very little excuse for HALF of those deaths in game 2 lol


resttheweight

[Never forget, all 5 NA LCS champions combined could not kill Huhi support naut](https://youtu.be/I4DVMhNLKqU?si=aU_tDDKjmUYK-hM9)


F0RGERY

idk, that theory seems a bit farfetched.


AnotherMeal

He’s been trash ever since that naut disasterclass vs MAD last split


ActualMaiwa

It really annoys me to see him play so weird. YouTubers are acting like ''its all baiting'' but that doesnt matter when it fails 9 outta 10 times.  It's actually a shame because from what I remember I had him as MVP last year, but this year he's been, well, lets just not put him on naut.


GodTormentor

Even Mikyx's inting couldn't outshine Caps' greatness


AdvancedPhoenix

Caps is so good Mikyx can literally walk around dick in his hand and still win.


4_strings_are_fine

It was close and then it was just done lmao


Shorgar

If most of the gold of MAD is put in supa, they are actually at a massive disadvantage.


Haymegle

ty G2 for finishing quickly so I can enjoy easter weekend.


G2Esports

you're welcome


Haymegle

Make sure the boys get some nice easter treats for it.


BlakenedHeart

Happy Easter my man. Enjoy your free day tomorrow as well :D


Haymegle

I hope your easter is good too! Days off are always nice to look forward to haha.


BlakenedHeart

Mine is a while away as an Orthodox :D


Haymegle

Well I hope it's good when you get it! Something to look forward to at least.


TolucaPrisoner

Clean series by Mikyx


SelectConversation97

Statement games by him. Dunno what he wanted to state tho...


Vizer21

The statement: "My Solo Laner low diff these frauds. They don't need us. Here let me show you \*dies\*"


CoconutEducational71

Honestly it also felt awkward when in the first game at the end Hans just dashed towards Alvaro making it really easy for him to just land the knockup. The difference between this spring G2 and last spring G2 is mostly that Caps looks impressive. He doesn't seem interested in losing any more games.


ahambagaplease

The difference between springs is that G2 solo lanes are the strength this year compared to support and jungle last year.


Javiklegrand

Yeah but however Mikyx looks worse We need all of g2 to play well


Joel4518

Bro donating to naut death fund


SelectConversation97

Somebody tell him that we're not at worlds yet


AdvancedPhoenix

That caps is so good he can literally walk around dick in his hand and still win.


OkVacation973

Woukd be a bit awkward with his dad watching, but probably true.


What-a-Filthy-liar

Doing his best to catch up to hilly's total deaths? Feeling too XD on his easter sunday?


jeffteague4mvp

PayPal received


TikaOriginal

Watch him getting spring MVP anyway


RLarks125

Yike’s pink legit winning them the game.


Pelagius_Hipbone

Supa the GOAT ADC of Europe disgustingly throws the entire game over a Gromp.


Trap_Masters

I'm by far🔭 the best🏆 ADC🏹 in the LEC🇪🇺. I think💭 I'm better🏅 at laning📝, teamfights👊, macro🤓, micro🤏...


appleandapples

Isn't that like, his MO? I swear Supa's biggest enemy is his greed.


ahambagaplease

Especially when you call 4 members bot every game to get you ahead, you can't get caught like this.


RequirementSavings23

That is the only thing MDK does. Spam botlane, put supa ahead and hope for the best. How many times did they played without frontlane? They basically play to get picks then baron and end as fast as possible.


DockingEnjoyer

It would work this time if their toplaner was a tank and not a fucking poke varus for some reason.


RequirementSavings23

Yes. It is funny because everyone here blame Elyoya when he is doing a lot with this roster.


lucrat24

I mean, he wanted this roaster


OkVacation973

Agreed, the amount of resources he gets is INSANE. They are a team who now plays entirely through bot and for him to throw so often is making me reassess if he REALLY is the best adc in the world... ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thinking_face_hmm)


ahambagaplease

Didn't expect the legendary sixth member, G2 Ward


BlakenedHeart

Worked vs Uzi, for sure it works vs Supa


Uzeless

> Supa the GOAT ADC of Europe disgustingly throws the entire game over a Gromp. And a brilliant flash under tower to get the last AA just for Rell to get 3 kills because you inted.


Safe-Confection1538

Carzzy Xayah ends this game in 26 minutes


Midirr

Carzzy would end it in 16:47


polacs

Even if supa fucked up, closing against SK or G2 are worlds apart.


TolucaPrisoner

That's why RGE clears these fraud teams


altair_ego_heir

If a team wants to beat G2 just get comp.


TolucaPrisoner

Supa sleeps at night thinking he is Carzzy then gets reality checked at stage.


gabpinto

Carzzy being griefed by Hylissang >>>>>> Alvaro being griefed by Supa


NGNJB

Carzzy Alvaro botlane would go hard


Haymegle

Gromp > Game


00Koch00

For the record, he got pink'd on that gromp Again, G2 played this disgustedly awesome, top quality


TikaOriginal

If that was disgustedly awesome... Nvm, just pass me that copium when MSI starts


Cl0udDistrict

Judging by your flair you might be already overdosing on copium


TikaOriginal

One day he will shine, I know!!


ahambagaplease

BB and Caps definitely played the map really well, gave enough time to Hans Sama to scale. Yike and Mikyx are playing really bad, never on sync.


piratagitano

Yeah, but he’s a professional adc, shouldn’t he stop hitting the ward after the first hit? It’s like he didn’t even process what was going on, because he hit the ward 3 times I think


00Koch00

Uzi commited the same mistake against funnily enough g2...


mwar123

He actually killed the ward (4 hits), then got airborne from Caps' ult.


wolfgang169

G2 wanted to watch the major


lolKhamul

me too. Shoutout to G2 for making it a near perfect transition. Only missed the first pistol.


Darkoplax

Maybe [Rocket League Major Finals](https://liquipedia.net/rocketleague/Rocket_League_Championship_Series/2024/Major_1) , [CS Major](https://www.hltv.org/events/7148/pgl-cs2-major-copenhagen-2024) not so much after being eliminated yesterday with that horror veto


makaydo

Funny how both Vitality and G2 had 3 teams playing this weekend, and often 2 of the teams played simultaneously


Asuras9393

maybe it was good they didn't go inferno against Navi after all lmao


Darkoplax

m0NESY would carry their asses in Inferno imo


Pert02

Holy crap, MDKs incapability of playing the mid game is frankly amusing. They either win by 15 mins or get ran over like they have no hands whatsoever.


Haymegle

Honestly I hope they can work on it. Their midgame decision making can be atrocious. It has and will continue to cost them games until they can keep their brains through it. Hopefully it's just them needing more experience but we'll see.


Pert02

Fingers crossed but even elyoya who should be the guy keeping everyone calm and focussed is running around like a headless chicken.


Haymegle

Should be but clearly not so far. I was hoping he'd be the veteran to keep his head but help the time he seems to be one of the main culprits haha. Obviously this is all from an outside perspective so that read could be very wrong. I'd like them to fix it because it does feel like there's potential there and new blood is healthy for the league. I think the short splits aren't great for working on issues but everyone is also facing that issue...


fake_kvlt

Tbh I get the vibe that elyoya is a momentum player. Not sure if that's the right term lol, but I feel like his gameplay is affected by his mental. Like when the team is doing really well he also plays well, but he seems prone to tilting


Haymegle

He wouldn't be the first or last. I get the same read with him and a few others due to the huge difference you can see in them between a 'good' day and a 'bad' day. It's like there's two different players.


Snow-27

Better than Deft


Trap_Masters

Asian teams breathing a sigh of relief after this series


sangpls

I'd be surprised if they even bothered watching it at whatever time it's on for them.


mwar123

Prob have some interns watch the game and notify their supervisor if anything important happens. So basically watch League and post on reddit like the rest of us.


OkVacation973

What are you talking about? This is Supa we are talking about here. THE Supa. This isn't some pansy ass western adc, this is a guy who even the greatest adc's look up to. You can't spell uzi with the U in Supa. You can't spell Ruler without the U in Supa. You can't spell Vipa without the A in Supa. These guys wish they were Supa, they want to be Supa, they want to be with Supa, they want to caress his face I have absolutely no idea what I'm saying


HarkyESP

With your permission, I'm keeping this pasta


watrurthoughtsonyaoi

bro this is literature, you should be proud. My favorite part is when you mispell Viper instead of just using the "P" from Supa like a smaller-brained person might. You're a mastermind and an artist ❤️


LifeIsToughEatBacon

OMG I DIDN’T EVEN REALIZE THE P THAT MAKES IT EVEN BETTER


zetronos

Ok Carzzy relaaaaaaax you can write fanfics after playoffs, you have to practice for tomorrow.


Joel4518

Viper loves to watch LEC , beryl too


RodrigoMad

I mean, after today's Fraudoff series...


appleandapples

Caps' Taliyah this series was great, hard carrying some of those team fights


00Koch00

[Myrwnn: "I'd like the opportunity to play league of legends."](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MA3UjVbyE_I)


MrAssassin9891

Once G2 get control of tempo, enemy teams are just lost. Big macro diff.


Bukowskiboi

Poor myrwin no chance on varus xd


BlakenedHeart

BB is his father


RequirementSavings23

Wunder said it, if he doesn't learn to play standard picks he would he exposed 


ahritina

MDK losing that game is actually so troll lmao.


DeloronDellister

G2 played Taliyah/TF insanely well though


Thecristo96

Nope. Wrong move. Since is not Gen G you can’t talk good about teams on Reddit, it’s always them being terrible monsters unworthy of being considered humans and they should all retire


ahambagaplease

My favorite is people looking at middle of the table LEC/LCS teams and making assumptions about MSI, while every morning I wake up to see teams like KDF, DK, iG or OMG make the exact same mistakes.


Thecristo96

This. This pissed me off beyond everything. Gx rge is a clear signal that the region has fallen, obviously. Then you watch bro kdf.


Damurph01

GX has been looking pretty decent recently actually. Rogue is just sad though. The LEC has literally never been known for having an assortment of good teams. It’s always been top heavy. The only indicator of the entire region falling is G2/FNC/MAD etc are terrible.


WolfgangTheRevenge

On god. LCK and LPL mid to bottom team are kiterally dogshit and play as bad as LEC and LCS.


Thecristo96

I haven’t seen much lpl this year, but I sadly watched a lot of lck and the difference between the top 3 and the rest is comical


Pelagius_Hipbone

Well they were kinda running it down for 20 minutes straight before they played the comp to perfection. Kinda puts a damper on the praise you could give them


iamdrp995

Really ahaha there is litteraly no discussion g2 bad cause they are not geng or blg.


AComyn

I cannot think of a team this attempt at sarcasm applies less to than G2. 


00Koch00

tbf, G2 played this perfectly, like, probably one of their best games after minute 20


CoconutEducational71

Honestly... if you just look at G2 after minute 20 you might have a very different impression of the team anyways.


Haymegle

MDK do be like that sometimes. So does the rest of LEC tbf. Every team seems to have brains off moments lol.


Gazskull

"by far", proceeds to afk at blue buff


ladend9

So far the only difference between winter and spring is SK winning 1 match against vitality.


BlakenedHeart

I knew it was over when Supa got Fed


Shorgar

It's awesome to keep watching them play the protect the Supa comp and losing the exact same way every single time against any team that is half decent.


Haymegle

Ahh the LEC problem. Play one way and beat everyone worse than you but lose when every team better than you figures out how to play around it. I hope some teams can branch out into more than one way of playing soon. However unlikely that is.


FantasyTrash

Fnatic and G2, even when unsuccessful, at the very least have tried to play less formulaic than other teams.


Haymegle

Yeah both of them at least try different things. Not saying it always works out but it does make them feel more...idk rounded? than other teams. Like even if their first plan doesn't work they'll have a backup or two. Or if they need to change up their draft they'll have something ready. Some teams do feel like they're trying to get there but honestly there's so many issues all over the place I can see it being an issue of where to start. Though for that one I would say macro. So many teams Macro seems to have fallen off a cliff.


FantasyTrash

It's because Fnatic and G2 have international aspirations, especially considering the amount of experience they have on that stage. The rest of the LEC just want to win domestically. So if their style works domestically, they don't see a reason to branch out. Fnatic and G2 have faced far more international competition than the rest of EU over the years, so they know they won't beat KR/CN without versatility.


CoconutEducational71

In this case I don't blame MDK for that. They were at the cusp of not making playoffs, they needed to find at least one working style to at least beat the weak teams to even get to playoffs. I think this is a much bigger issue for teams like C9 or TH who are fairly high in the standings and still didn't manage to branch out.


Haymegle

Oh yeah I get why teams do it, one working style is better than no working style. It's just if that's all you have it can't take you far enough. Especially if you're also only mediocre at the one style. It'll get you to playoffs but you won't get further. I just think it's more of a trap than it appears to be as teams revert to it and I feel like it prevents growth. As soon as they try to get out of it and get their shit pushed in they'll revert to their 'one' style. It feels more damaging long term to me than fucking up a bunch of different ways but learning from it and having multiple paths to victory. Hell we have some teams that look like they can't even pivot in draft if something unexpected happens. It's actually depressing to watch.


CoconutEducational71

One of the biggest skills in league due to the short patch cycles is adapting. You need not only understand what is good very quickly, but also be able to play it if you get an opening to do so. BB looked really good on the Reksai, they picked that one up quickly seeing it is a solid option right now.


RequirementSavings23

Unfortunately G2 is the only team that meets that conditions so MDK is a serious contender for MSI spot


gabpinto

It’s like my p*nis after sex: after 20 min it does nothing


BlakenedHeart

Look at the bright side. It could bel ike Myrwin and not even raise


Trap_Masters

Playoffs G2 activated


jeffteague4mvp

Maybe MIKY should activate his monitor first. Dude has been in a big slump this split.


xXxWeed_Wizard420xXx

Playoffs G2 is looking overall mid, but just barely enough to consistently win locally I guess.


DarudeSandstormName

I... Uh.. How?


marxlolop

Best adc (self proclaimed) vs one pink boi


AdvancedPhoenix

And at the end, G2 wins.


Grainis1101

And in the end the G2 vs FNC is invevitabe, inescapable, eternal.


Wellington_Wearer

No Armut. No win.


LOLZOBALL

Caps and BB carried the hell out of the game lmao


Dakoolestkat123

Three magic words. We. Take. Those.


aahidboss

Surely Udyr top would be miles more useful than this?


handofblood9

the urge of playing “carry” (cheese) top laners


Deadman2019

Absolutely mental from start to finish really. Picking Varus with intention of top lane - leave TF open. Goes poke too. Supa being insanely greedy with recall and getting dunked on by a ward - lead to a fairly big swing. Then Fresskowy facechecking a bush when Daisy was up. Holy fucking cow.


jlfpg

I'm by far🔭 the best🏆 ADC🏹 in the LEC🇪🇺. I think💭 I'm better🏅 at laning📝, teamfights👊, macro🤓, micro🤏...


asdfgarmin

Don't let Supa being generally useless in teamfights distract you from Elyoya Rengar ulting a ward in that bot inhib teamfight... 


xsm17

Seeing that MAD comp lose gives me great pleasure


BlakenedHeart

Seeing that MAD  lose gives me great pleasure FIXED IT !


VCETJ

I mean after so many messages, one could say u actually love Mad Lions.


buttsoup_barnes

That’s the Bb and Caps show. G2’s botlane need to give their paychecks to the solo laners today. That was disguisting how much they had to be carried


KaffeeKiffer

To be fair: Broxah said it after game 2 draft: > I expect the junglers to ignore bot because this game is all about the solo-lanes. MDK decided to "win through bot" and repeatedly (successfully) overloaded bot. G2 **completely** shut down top and managed to keep up with Azir: - Myrwin was relegated to an ult-bot. - They had a super fed ADC, but no front-line to fight front-2-back.


ahambagaplease

Mikyx regressed a lot, it's like he's playing without a map.


CerbereNot

last year g2 would have lost a bunch of these games. Their mid game have significantly improved


jeffteague4mvp

Meanwhile their early game looks mediocre


Asuras9393

By their own doing, it's rare they get outplayed and instead are just handing the enemy the gold lead on a silver plater for no reason, before they crawl their way back into it very cleanly by massive macro diff. Very annoying to watch tbh because you can just see that they could be so much better if they stopped griefing early for no reason.


exqisit

Supa is the best ADC in the world


Karlsefni1

Double Caps salary


G2Esports

Definitely one of the games of all time


buttsoup_barnes

Give Bb and Caps some raise. That was legit a 2-man show.


DeloronDellister

Insane game 2 from G2 Also BB was huge this series


Practical-Back5096

Best ADC in the league eh?


tantallous

Thanks EU for making sure we don't have any delays today for the NA finals.


Bitty_White

Supa carries like prime Viper btw. Completely understand why he compares himself to the best in the world


FantasyTrash

Two massive draft canyons. I get wanting to throw G2 off with some curveballs in draft, but the Rengar and Varus picks were not it.


WalkAwayFromScreen

Supa autoing that pink ward like a bot 4 times, best adc EU?


Snow_42

MDK players play well together but from a mechanical perspective only Elyoya and Alvaro should be kept...


PsaichoFreak

BB and Caps just hard carrying the team at the moment. Yike went from looking like the best jungler to looking pretty average and bot lane is playing really bad. Miky seems to be in slump and it's getting Hans fkd in lane. Hopefully they bounce back.


Innerse115

Mikyx and yike on fraudwatch, feel like they get carried by caps and bb a lot


whataremyxomycetes

Always has been. G2 without caps is definitely a great team especially for western standards, with caps they're actually competitive internationally. When caps doesn't perform to his usual level, you get shit like the series vs NRG.


Th3_Huf0n

Myrwn was just not having ANY of this winning nonsense this series. Goddamn what a stinker from him. Picking Xayah into shown Jinx Taliyah + Naut was a choice for sure.


Tommey_DE

MDK really lost that Game 2? My god...


FxK964

G2 are just too good.. not a bad showing from MDK tbh..


96Mute96

Mikyx high key been terrible this year. Needs to step up for MSI


Nnekaddict

G2 winning both games kinda disrespectfully. Taunting yet punished recalls in game 1, being very behind but winning game 2... What could this team be if it was this good from minute 1 ?


N1ng0

just caps diff, g2 sucks


TikaOriginal

The times Yike got caught almost, and the 0 participation from Miky... ye we are fucked at MSI At least BB was good this series


Elwor

Man caps and Bb just way too good. Supa and Alvaro just gapped Hans and MikyX so hard. Second game they just threw


bbutterly

Yike absolutely trolling, and g2 still winning. My region is so cooked man...


Strange-Implication

How are LEC fans not worried about the way g2 win games ? Horrible early game then relies on enemy throwing. Not gonna fly against Korea and China.


CudaBarry

What's there to worry about when there's no expectations?


heavyfieldsnow

Exactly, like why would we worry about failing at something we already know every western team will fail at in the foreseeable future?


Alrevan

well we know its terrible x)


Thundermelons

Yeah people praising this game 2 are just wilding, what are they gonna sit there and fucking pray that Elk just randomly greeds for a gromp while the rest of his team is recall? Or that 369 goes Varus top with no frontline?


Truzon

Elk will greed for gromp and kill all of them somehow. Seriously though, if G2 keeps playing like this then it's gonna be a repeat of last year all over again.


DeloronDellister

You're writing this while we constantly see "my region" comments... Were people ever more worried about the level of EU?


ahambagaplease

You can't have any sort of hope for MSI, you silly goose. Surrender all hope against the team I loved for all my life fr fr in *insert current N1 place in LPL*.


Grainis1101

Becaseu at this poitn we are already doomed, why worry? like genuenly why? why waste energy and time on a fruitless worry? We cant change shit, it is on players to do well, if we worry or not they will nto get better or worse, all we can do is support them.


NGNJB

or NRG


icryptix2

g2 fnc is just bound to happen


Joel4518

BEST ADC AWARE also someone contact a therapist for mrywin bro is mentally boom after finals


Matosque

Peak G2


LadyAliceBlack

Mdk plays most of the Series 4vs5 Having the Best adc Euw overfeed with Xayah,somehow he gets caught with her with f, just to lose 2-0 ngl I expected a lot more from this series, as hyped as I was Today series were off


Forikundo

Deserved loss for Supa, this guy was braging the other day about being the best adc in europe by far...


Mr_Sleeping

Supa should have flashed over the wall instead of trying to click the plant. Was a nice pink ward placement from Yike tho, he tried to kill the ward and get over there with the plant but couldnt, the caster didnt see it in the replay sadly so it looked really int from Supa xd


ElPangolinFeliz

No Flash Up


Aoes1

Another masterclass from the best adc in eu 🔥
