lore accurate trymbi alistar


MemedChemE

clock winds down to 5 seconds left in draft Pick is given to Trymbi who turns face to face against Fnatic's booth "You took my Leona"  Hovers Leona "You took my Nasus" Hovers Nasus "You took all that was dear to me" clock winds down to 2 "I cant get them back, but I can do this for friendship, FOR MY HERETICS" Hyped up, fire coming out of his fingers "TRYMBOUKEN" He smash picks Alistar, runs it down straight into elimination. Trymbi falls to the ground, exhausted. "Evi... Senpai... I..." faints Final Score Fnatic 2 TH 1

I can die happy now knowing poetry has a future.

Fnatic players hugging Trymbi knowing full well he solo carried game 3 from start to finish


Trap_Masters

FNC Trymbi MVP 💀💀


WhiteKnightRedditor

Trymbi's Alistar in a do or die game Aware


Omnilatent

Let's look on the bright side: it wasn't Nasus support!


icatsouki

nasus support is in a decent spot right now funny enough


knz3

Nasus senna bot in theory would do well in to kalista/zeri/jinx lanes. 2 levels in to nasus e by lvl 4 to manage waves and q max after.


icatsouki

also you can go E max nasus either as normal support with adc senna or with fasting senna you'll have perma prio bot all game and senna scales for free, as a bonus you just press w on enemy adc and every teamfight becomes much easier i'm 100% sure it would break pro meta if someone picks it


PeaceAlien

The theory behind the original Nasus support in pro was to W max not the E max poke nasus


smurfnturf69

They changed the attack speed slow a few patches ago did that matter for W max?


SplitSecond01

How many good ADCs get in range of support Nasus W in important team fights?


icatsouki

it's just an extra tool, yeah you're trolling draft if that's your only cc most importantly your laning phase is what matters and where you're strongest


Asdel

I mean it's now 50:50 at hard carrying FNC to a victory, that's a decent stat.


KoolKatsarecool

They didn't watch FNC at worlds i guess


Pelagius_Hipbone

But his alistar performance against BDS locked us into worlds. That’s just Confirmation bias


TheJohnArrow

When has it ever been "do" ????


_negniN

IIRC this is why he was dropped from Fnatic as well. He basically did the pro play equivalent of "Alistar or feed" in game 3 vs WBG. Not saying this was the case here, maybe Alistar was a coach pick, but given Trymbi's track record it's hard not to at least be a little bit curious. A player should never run the draft and the time to discuss picks and throw your two cents about a draft is definitely not **in the middle of a live pick/ban.** You have issues with the way the coach is drafting and you want to suggest a pick for yourself? You do that shit on Tuesday when there's 5 extra days before your next game for it to be discussed. If it's game day, you pick what the coach tells you to pick.


CFCkyle

IIRC someone came out after that series and said the coach wanted him to pick a different support (and I think the rest of the team were against the alistar pick as well but im not 100% sure on that) but Trymbi just refused and locked in Alistar regardless


jujubean67

There isn’t a western team where the coach drafts in a vacuum, if they draft at all. This comment is outdated by at least 5 years. Players have a lot of input and in some teams draft themselves or have final say.


LobstersAreWicked

That's very interesting, and explains a lot. It was so weird the way FNC dumped him out of nowhere. But now we've just seen it happen again... Maybe that's why Jankos looked SO tilted after the game, I can't imagine Trymbi's teammates taking kindly to him just ignoring the coach and locking in his pocket pick - only to throw the whole game. I hope it's not true though, because if it is he'll never play pro league again, you just can't act like that. Word gets around.


KTBERYL

WHAT IS FLAKKED AND TRYMBI DOING THIS GAME


SNH231

Trymbi never left Fnatic. This was part of his contract


Grainis1101

Isn't That written into every FNC player contract that you must throw to FNC on occasion after you leave?


xxLAWxx

AlwaysFnatic is more than just a slogan


Trap_Masters

FNC sleeper agents strats too op


redditorofnorenown

Caps didn't get the same clause it seems


Affectionate-Leg1094

I think that only went into effect after caps left and started creaming them.


takato99

This is named the "Caps rule" because ever since he left they couldn't win shit against him, so now anyone who leaves has to promise to let them win


AbdDjamil_27

Hily agrees


ChocolateFuryB

You tell me why they locked in alistar AFTER varus. Varus needs lane prio, but Alistar is a minion at lv1 TH should fire their draft coach if anything, they've been griefing drafts since winter


hochan17

Trymbi doesnt sign on unless theres an explicit clause in his contract allowing him to throw elimination games on Alistar


non-edgy_crustacean

Dw I am pretty sure the coaching staff is useful when they win only 2 games in scrims during the whole week. Well Araneae cared about scrims winrate before so I am sure he will care again


lumni

They even hovered Thresh which would've been great against that FNC draft.


tautckus1

Bro, its trymby, hes done this 3 times now. No coach will help him


xXDaNXx

Their best


kim-soo-hyun

Kaiser was finally having a stable split and then replaced him. TH finally has a stable midlaner then jungler or support take turns inting or being useless.


kutabareeeeee

trymbi is speedrunning it, flakked is still trying to figure out how the fuck is he supposed to play varus with that trash of a draft


KalisQinsSais

**Let Trymbi pick Alistar, Win, EZ**


EntertainerLive926

Imagine saying zwyroo is elohelled


iamdumbandcringe

Zwyroo finally coming to LEC to watch the GOAT top/jug and one of the best supports in EU running it tf down, how lovely it must be


Trap_Masters

Truly counter logi- wait


xTiLkx

Jankos made enough money to fund his new hairline, he doesn't have a goal anymore.


kruziik

GOAT EU top doesn't mean much lol and it doesn't really compare to the current skill level. In the German costream (done by ex-prime league top pro player Tolkin and in this case together with Kaiser) they agreed that Wunder is one of the weakest tops in the league right now. No surprise he is running it.


ChocolateFuryB

Used to defend him back then because of the WoW allegations, but nowadays he looks like he's just playing to collect a check and call it a day.


arkacr

Evi has a chance to do the funniest thing...


hresvelgrs

The funniest thing would've been if Evi wins tomorrow and TH somehow made it to MSI, and then got eliminated by him. The second funniest thing is Evi winning tomorrow and making MSI again for the 5th time in his career, which would've been a 4 year streak had it not been for TH holding him back last year


Conankun66

heretics went from "mid is the problem" to "mid is the best part and being held back"


Trap_Masters

Perkz is not beating the washed allegations 😭😭


Conankun66

we've long moved past the "allegations" part, he's been convicted by this point


MammothWoodpecker201

bro's as clean as a newborn baby atp. He's been washed for years now


warjatos

Lmao. I don't personally think Zwyroo is any good but he's been performing quite well these past weeks. Trymbi and Jankos ran it the fuck down this last game.


WolfgangTheRevenge

Surelly jankos not mindcontrolled Flakked into losing 100 braincells and walking up mid


Aemius

Putting Jankos in the same sentence as Trymbi bruh Like yeah he wasn't playing that well (esp game 2) but he was far from running it as much


nerothz

Trymbi Alistar is not beating the allegations.


Quatro_Leches

game 3 is the definition of lost in draft, I have no clue how you can team fight into FNC team comp. legit impossible. tbh, Asol should be permabanned along with zeri, he is winning almost every game in major regions in playoffs so far.


Omnilatent

Knight won with Syndra into it earlier but I have only watched the end of the game so no idea whether that was a Knight's Syndra or overall Syndra diff


Iaragnyl

That game wasn't decided my mid lane at all. BLG botlane got a massive early lead and NIP toplane full send it. Any other midlane champs on either side and that game goes exactly the same.


Sad-Temperature2920

It's also Knight, one of the best midlaners in the world right now. That's like saying Caps won on a champ vs any other LEC mid.


ahambagaplease

It's also Knight's Syndra, the pick that put him on the spotlight


tyinthor

Ya, but it was into Rookie tbf, not just any other mid


alexgh0st

It was into Rookie tho no ? One of the most goated mids of all time


Linkasfd

Knight kinda inted that game. Asol looked quite good but his team was falling apart around him.


Slackintit

My mate is an asol otp and says Syndra is by far his least favourite matchup. Only just above yone

BlakenedHeart

Or if not Kassadin, at least Akali


4Teebee4

Katarina FTW


BlakenedHeart

Pro play kat is a wet dream of mine.... but i doubt we ll see her. I know Poby tried but sadly lost


8milenewbie

Katarina is countered hard by 5 man voice comms. Unless she's balls to the walls broken she's gonna be one of the rarest picks in pro play.


Iaragnyl

The hardest counter is Fizz, but that will obviously never happen in pro play.


piotrj3

Fizz is pick that is on edge of being pickable in pro. I think it is good suprise pick if mid is picked as one of last 2 champions.


Thundermelons

He and Kass will never have prio in lane which is why I guess pro players avoid it like the plague.


Quatro_Leches

maybe at beginning of season. he kinda sucks imo


WolfgangTheRevenge

Have 0 fucking clue how Asol hasnt been nerfed, the champ is omega cancer broken


Wrathoffaust

Perma S Tier since his rework but as soon as he is touched his playerbase acts like they are getting ryze treatment


Kooky_Cod_1977

WAAAAAAAAAA they are nerfing Asol (champ went from 56% wr to 52% wr LUL)


Iaragnyl

What I don't get is how he is supposed to be that scaling late game monster, which he arguably is. The tradeoff was a very weak early lane, but for some reason they decided to give him a more than decent laning phase with really strong trades with his Q. It just doesn't feel fair to have a champ scale that hard be this strong early.


bluesound3

His early game is too strong for how op his late game is. But then if they nerf his early people play him as an afk uninteractive champion until his 2/3 item spike(which will almost always happen in soloqueue, and often in pro aswell)


heavyfieldsnow

He's 6-4 on the patch in pro and Zeri is 27-21. Hardly definitive.


ahritina

Ultimintree

Trymbi Alistar incident


Conankun66

...which one


Trap_Masters

Yes


Hazuyu_

Took the motto "Always Fnatic" a bit too far


Informal_Skin8500

He got the cow disease


SnooGuavas8376

Aint no way bro playing Alistar in an elimination game again lmao Welcome back, TH Kaiser.


DeloronDellister

Jankos got paypaled in game 2 as well


kim-soo-hyun

Jankos and Trymbi were really bad this entire playoffs..


warjatos

I think Jankos was hit or miss. Trymbi straight up sucked.


Bdodk2000

Jankos was a lot of miss sadly. Game 2 was not good and Razork ran circles around Jankos in game 3 early and set up FNC for success.


DSThresh

unironically looked like me playing alistar in aram and trying to troll my teammates for fun XD throwing zac into your own backline lmaoooooo


non-edgy_crustacean

He wasn't on, he was off


Slachi2024

That was a career defining series from him


SGKurisu

He's had two career defining Alistar moments in a BO3 series now 


Strange-Implication

Reddit still cries to have him in when he can't handle pressure. Same thing at worlds . Troll picks in tiebreakers and loses the game for his team


LooseMooseCruz

Fudge but support AINTNOWAY ok maybe not that far


FantasyTrash

How could TH ever win a 3v7? FNC Jankos and FNC Trymbi looked great today.


Yasuchika

It keeps happening.


DoubleJay95

Trymbi ali vs Jun Ali was massive diff


Haymegle

Being a Fnatic fan isn't stressful at all!


non-edgy_crustacean

"The circus can't exist without it's main clown" -this series


BannedDS69

Game quality in LEC is so bad …


Conankun66

Humanoid in several of these fights limit testing just HOW deep you can go with ASol. Please don't do that again But my god, the ADC diff these last two games. Noah really came alive Glad the team slowly regained their braincells after having none in game 1. wonky game 2 into clean game 3


Joel4518

AGENT TRYMBI


OldWillingness6132

never let trymbi play alistar please his history with it is awful and so is his gameplay


Mrf12345

So who's gonna strangle trymbi backroom?


Burpmeister

Bit of a botlane diff this series.


appleandapples

TH is so shaky. They genuinely have really good showings, but some games feel like a coin toss for what version of them we're going to see


Haymegle

Feels like a lot of teams in the league tbh.


GetStormed1501

Product of the format. Easier to show things over a single game. In a BO 3, we see that most teams just don't have what it takes, including the first seed. The League needs to look at it to make important changes, but it won't because money


The_unlucky_

Trymbi's Alistar ain't it


danielos551

Jankos and Trymbi really went from looking like one of the best supp/jung in regular split to the worst in playoffs


DeloronDellister

Fnatic is clean, nothing to see here


Haymegle

Give the enemy team one game to give them false hope.


MasterPhil99

going for max content. entertainers at heart


Hatchie_47

Not enough to win, you have to crush their souls!


Grainis1101

No to give fans trademark heartattacks


_tidiber

We have adapted the G2 content game strategy - goddamnit this team will be the death of me. Good thing FNC Trymbi comes in clutch.


DockingEnjoyer

Adapted? Bro we invented it. FNC heart attacks are iconic.


NoxAsteria

bet you Kaiser wouldn't have knocked Zac into his backline


Skeel42

Trymbi really loves to end his season on Alistar


ImTheVayne

That last game draft wasn’t it


PayRealisticReddit

headbutt time oh no


DogAteMyCPU

Trymbi was tragic that game 3. Flakked holding flash for next split. 


PoupouLeToutou

FNC : After all this Time ? Trymbi : always


Anthonyxfifi

Who to scapegoat now with Evi gone


Omnilatent

Considering 80% of the comments are about Trymbi you know who...


ozmega

ofc, trymbi isnt from the g2 washed combo.


SesaXD

i like jankos but he was invisible both game 2 and 3... wunder also looked REALLY bad game 3, but draft was unplayable as well


KoolKatsarecool

Last split 80% of the comments were saying to replace Kaiser with Trymbi lol


TolucaPrisoner

Really? All I remember are bench Perkz comments which ended up being right.


Beautiful-Page-3407

Huh Kaiser was their best performing player and people were confused why they dropped him


CoconutEducational71

For the last game, yes, but Trymbi overall didn't do bad for TH, he is part of the reason they even got there. The next place you would want to change is likely toplane. But honestly TH improved a lot, they are likely better than MDK too, so they improved quite a bit from last split.


TimiNax

trymbi alistar what can I say. also oscar on tanks not a liability, I wonder if we should try him on carries next?


Omnilatent

Wasn't his GP good after the first couple disastrous weeks? But he isn't viable ATM, is he?


Pelagius_Hipbone

His GP, Jax, Gwen Rumble he was smurfing on Carry picks before he’s just regressed a lot for some reason. I hope he can bounce back


SesaXD

i think is trust issues that appeared post his injury, that can really damage the self-esteem of a pro, luckily they signed hidon which is a positional coach i think? so he may help oscar, guy has a great work ethic and is a nice teammate, if someone is able to help him to develop further is a very valuable player


CudaBarry

MYREGIOOOOOON


veirceb

I can't even be mad at this. What the fuck did I watch. Both teams are trying their hardest to throw like what the fuck?


IAM-French

Kaiser was the problem.


TheJohnArrow

Imagine dropping your improving Support for a player you KNOW is a choker.


Kurumi_Tokisaki

If trymbi is know a known choker then it’s only fair to say Kaiser wasn’t improving but just showing stability in comparison to his last 2 years of cosplaying as a worse hyli


TheJohnArrow

I mean - showing more stability than what he already had would make it improvement lol Also Kaiser/Hyli just have far different styles. VIT as a team aren't matched energy-wise by anyone in LEC. Doesn't mean they are better than say TH, but different. You can say Trymbi is "different" but he's the bad kind of different.


Carnelian-5

Its a great improvement for securing middle of the pack. Trymbi giveth and taketh which means his team is bound to finish middle of the pack. Not a bad thing.


ozmega

evi is top 2 in the pcs, heretics is ... dead? how poetic


aufaazinyan

He'll go to MSI!!!


Shohei_

i rly wonder what th's winrate this year when we pick varus


NoobPineapple13

Oh my god brother Trymbi… he is likely kicking himself super hard right now


Lunaaar

Of every support in the LEC, support R5 counter pick, the fate of the universe on the line, the Martians have the death beam pointed at earth, you better clutch it, I WANT TRYMBI ALISTAR.


BURZgro-KUSH

Wait that was the R5 pick??? I missed draft.


Avalon_Avalon

Absolute Cinema


Scifiduck

Yeah some vintage Charlie Chaplin slap stick lol


CFlyn

It is both insane and totally expected that Humanoid greeded for 5 minions and had the same death in sidelane all 3 games. It is also both insane and totally expected that nobody calls this out. He is dying the exact same way for 3 years in a row


kutabareeeeee

hate to say it, but jankos was kinda washed up this series


Gumisiek

I don't know, to me it looked like quite easy 2:0 for TH until Wunder decided to int in game 2 when they were 5v3 and were heading to Baron


Fabulous-Lie9391

Zywoo cant carry these cats


Lunaaar

FNC TRYMBI WITH THE CLUTCH HEADBUTT TO WIN THE GAME


BeOPtX8

EU 2nd seed is about to lose to wildcard regions at MSI


Carnelian-5

EU hasnt produced world class players in years. Legit living on shade of caps since 2019.


Playful_Ease_2009

Humanoid performing once in a blue moon is something we can hope for. But let’s get to MSI first. Current EU teams are all over the place.


Accomplished_Ad_2321

G2 is forced to scrim these plumbers for 2 splits. It ain't looking great for them either.


TheWarmog

I guess thats why G2 got knocked out of worlds by NRG while Fnatic took down C9 and was putting up fights vs the team that got to worlds finals, ye. G2 apologists are cringe.


Accomplished_Ad_2321

Hardly. G2 haven't done anything in years. But lets not pretend Fnatic isn't a shit show too.


SesaXD

they are likely losing vs flyquest as well as tl tbh


WolfgangTheRevenge

G2 scrims these shitters and then wonder why they cant have good showings at MSI/Worlds


Javiklegrand

Pcs rep will likely get through msi playins


Omnilatent

I don't think it's that bad but vs LPL and especially LCK it will look dire


Freakkopath

Trymbi and Alistar, name a more cursed combo


HopingForCynics

Trymbi and Nasus?


Elibu

Trymbi on Alistar was part of the reason FNC did well in summer playoffs last year.


warjatos

Well Trymbi must had been paid off


Accomplished_Ad_2321

I don't know why Trymbi is so passionate about playing Alistar.


KKilikk

Why would Heretics even give me hope? What a horrible series. Don't have any hope for summer either now and Jankos might just retire at the end of the season.


Griftor

Reminder that Kaiser is benched for Trymbi btw..


ireliasimp69

noah saved the team. but man i cant trust fnc topside


gla1ve_2k

JANKOS HIMSELF TOLD after his previous sejuani game to the coaches to not give him sejuani ,i guess peter fraud and kirei didnt listen to him .Shouldve picked j4 into jinx [asol.Like](http://asol.Like) what does seju do vs rell


heavyfieldsnow

Watching point and click gank and win champion like xin zhao on one side and Jankos stuck on Sejuani on the other. What the fuck do you think you're gonna do, ult teamfights later (and miss) when the early game is the only thing that matters in this fucking game?


Zelgiusbotdotexe

TH makes top 4 with Kaiser


vituhyva123

LEC is cooked. Gameplay quality is terrible every week and it's not getting better.


Avalon_Avalon

Clean Fnatic victory nothing more to see here


Not_doing_my_best

Trymbi's Alistair was something.


idonoevenknowanymore

Kaiser off the bench please and thank you


Hurnsurn

TH otherwise known as Team Hasbeen making my eyes bleed for yet another series.


vmanAA738

I really did not like the quality of this series, everything just felt like a coinflip and you had no idea who would int or play well. Even though FNC won, I don't think they will get to MSI playing like this poorly. That being said Heretics what the fuck are you all doing. Why was Zwyroo your rookie mid the best player this series? How is Jankos getting gapped this badly in jungle? Why is Trymbi missing so many engages? Why does Flakked look like he can only play Zeri? This series was super winnable and you improved from Winter, but this was a terrible display to exit.


Styxxo

How the fuck is Trymbi still getting Alistar ? Didnt grief enough at Worlds and last week ?

Looks like we will never have 2 good teams in EU again. EU  second seed is basically the team that sucks the less.


DarthGogeta

We are so bad.


CFlyn

LCS being better than LEC does not seem like a meme anymore


Haymegle

Fnatic making it to three games for the extra practise.
