Wait for rabadons

Okay but

Gold dif is kinda fake

It's more a 2k gold lead than anything

wild isle

lavish barn
#

Caps rabadons and bb tanks

north island
#

We had it

#

And threw it awa

lavish barn
#

And its still within grasp

#

Caps has damage

tiny kindle
#

the problem is this ezreal

Right

Ezeral is scary

north island

tiny kindle
#

yeah I think his rend went on cooldown

#

lavish barn
#

interesting

wild isle
#

elk has to be so much more powerfull and snowball from here out

north island
#

I dont want Elk to be so much more powerfull and snowball from here out

tiny kindle
#

yeah probably no bug

#

think the game just resumes

lavish barn
#

Probably

#

But if hans rens before

#

Rumble zhonyas

Then it might be a bug

tiny kindle

wild isle

fresh fjord
#

tiny kindle
#

ggs

zenith cairn
#

yeah they didnt deserve it after that baron throw

fresh fjord
#

sad to see them choke

tiny kindle
#

this team is so cooked man

north island
#

how

tiny kindle
#

what a disappointment

wild isle
#

this was so anti-climatic

lavish barn
#

Bruh

north island
#

Are they choking

#

AGAIN

lavish barn
#

The pause

north island
#

the same situation

#

They win a good team fight, choke a baron, lose

tiny kindle
#

last time we'll see this g2 roster together most definitely

#

2 years in a row no top 8

north island
#

Yike BB and Caps are good, but idk about Hans

#

And Miky? Yeah bye please

lavish barn
#

Tbh this game not on hans

#

Miky has been suspect

#

BB and Caps stays 100%

north island
#

Idk much about hans

zenith cairn
#

they were doing fine until that baron rush

north island
#

But miky is always just

tiny kindle
#

miky is like hyli, he's coinflip

#

but he's necessary

#

hans just feels like such a nonfactor

#

in all these games

wild isle
#

i remember miky was crazy good last year or year before that

north island
#

But how did that bug not get flagged by officials

tiny kindle
#

it wasn't a bug

north island
#

yeah rip

tiny kindle
#

i don't really think miky was the problem

#

sure he ints sometimes but he also makes their big plays

lavish barn
#

Hownstly

north island
#

Well, maybe not in map 3

tiny kindle
#

it comes with it

lavish barn
#

It's just been mad unlucky

wild isle
#

game 3 was def not on miky

tiny kindle
#

game 3 was just an awful team decision

#

they all choked

lavish barn
#

The baron call was bad

wild isle
#

think it is more some leadership decision making during game. like the baron call

zenith cairn
#

worse than bad

lavish barn
#

But it was still winnable

zenith cairn
#

it threw the game

lavish barn
#

That final play

#

Was the real bad

north island
#

that baron was a whole choke and a half

lavish barn
#

Why is bb tp flanking

#

Hold the base

#

Give soul

north island
#

then the team fight chasing a fed ezreal even tho we won it

wild isle
#

whoever is making calls needs to be replaced

north island
#

And the flank at the end

lavish barn
#

The longer this game goes the better it is for g2

north island
wild isle
#

ok out with him eventhough he is crazy good

tiny kindle
#

it's not that simple lol

lavish barn
#

nah we can't drop bb

north island
#

Or atleast the team captain, which implies to me he is the caller

tiny kindle
#

they just lost it in the heat of the moment

lavish barn
#

There's literally no top laner better than him rn in eu

#

It's literally BB

#

Massive gap

#

Everyone else

tiny kindle
#

i think if there's anyone i want gone, hans is the first one

wild isle
#

buy bwipo back to eu

tiny kindle
#

I just feel like he has no presence in any of the games

#

whether they're ahead or behind

lavish barn
#

thats true ig

#

But who do they even get

north island
#

How do we feel about Rekkles coming back to EU?

lavish barn
#

I can't see any logical upgrades for g2 tbh

#

man this game was winnable

#

It was right there

wild isle
#

they just need to be way more consistent

lavish barn
#

How do I sleep now....

north island
#

atleast I'm seeing ARTMS in two days...

#

something to be happy about

lavish barn
#

And we go straight into

north island
#

If its not G2 going to Paris

lavish barn
#

This na slap fest

#

Snooze

wild isle
#

dont care for lcs games either

north island
#

Its so robbed

#

NA going to Paris

quiet stream
#

elk goated

north island
#

Meanwhile G2 getting slaugthered

lavish barn
#

If g2 made it they would've made a run I feel

wild isle
#

dont forget lcs had to beat png, psg and gam then themselfs for worlds slot. so free

lavish barn
#

They would've the momentum

quiet stream
#

hell naw g2 is still g2

#

bin also fed as fuck

quiet stream
#

they got so lucky on the draw

#

g2 would 2-0 liquid easy

north island
#

I like the reddit post about a team of monkeys getting to play offs because of the draws

quiet stream
#

and then someone said monkeys>eu

#

true….

north island
quiet stream
#

go flyquest tho

quiet stream
#

i cant stand APA

#

bros a loser

lavish barn
#

Bad play after the lost teamfight

lavish barn
#

After the levi flame

#

Like bros u were omega last in lck 😭😭😭😭

quiet stream
#

he learned that from apa

lavish barn
#

Why are u trash talking levi in his last game

#

This is so cooked

north island
#

this is bs

lavish barn
#

The worst part was the hope

#

It wouldn't have felt as bad if we just got 2-0ed ended

#

Game 2 smashing

#

Game 3 was actually good

#

Just crucial plays...

#

The bb tp..... if he didn't tp I think g2 would've won like fr

#

The longer it goes the tankier bb becomes

north island
#

Would they?

lavish barn
#

Caps would shred them

#

Yeah they would

#

G2 scales harder imo

north island
#

They had baron and base was open

lavish barn
#

They have ryze

#

The wave clear machine

#

Drop Baron clear waves

#

Play for sides

#

1 pick into elder

#

Even with baron blg can't just walk into g2 cause of caps

#

He would machine gun them through the waves

quiet stream
#

caps gotta start learning chinese

#

the tp was fucking crazy

lavish barn
#

man

#

I'm empty

#

2 years out of grps in worlds

#

This year they looked good too when they were inting...

#

Their peak was defo challenger level but too much panic and misplays

#

Idk if we roll it back again I hope they do

#

I csnt see anyone that would be a defo upgrade on the roster

fresh fjord
#

would need to be an import if anything

#

or a change in coaching structure or something

north island
#

Doing certain drafts again and again that didnt work out well, idk about that

#

Or giving Bin his best champ on the first Map

lavish barn
#

First draft was troll

#

100%

#

Tbh

#

The only way g2 improves

#

Is they uproot rn

#

And move to lck and lpl

#

Cause every single team in eu is ass

#

And can't give them any good practice

#

fnatic are fight merchants , mad are just piss

#

I swear bds would've been better at worlds

#

At least their plays would work

#

Welps back to cs for me ig

misty bolt
lavish barn
#

It's so cooked for g2

tiny kindle
#

let's go fly

fresh fjord
#

i love how this chats died oliviakek

wild isle
#

do be like that

lavish barn
#

This

#

Is the team thats going to

#

Quarters yall

#

What am I watching

#

😭😭😭

fresh fjord
#

putting all my eggs in the t1 basket and 1 in the geng basket for chovy

wild isle
#

`voting for HLE they fun and chaeyoung

wild isle
#

are there any draws today?

#

ooh yeh their getting rdy for it i see

indigo moat
#

lets get a good quarterfinals draw please

fresh fjord
#

did APA lose?

indigo moat
#

yeah flyquest stomped them in game 3

fresh fjord
#

LETS GOOOOOO

#

good end to the day

indigo moat
#

draw for quarterfinals coming up

fresh fjord
#

cool will tune back in

indigo moat
#

GenG or LNG might get BLG in quarters lmao

fresh fjord
#

idk what i want for draws actually

wild isle
#

here we go

indigo moat
#

gonna be hard to avoid an LPL civil war since they have 4 teams

#

yep

#

LNG vs Weibo

wild isle
#

omg

#

fun game

indigo moat
#

wow

#

nooooooooo

fresh fjord
#

t1 run it back

indigo moat
#

T1 on GENG side of the bracket

fresh fjord
wild isle
#

who dis flyquest guy the coach? Angrysnoot

indigo moat
#

papasmithy

wild isle
#

xsmithy?

indigo moat
#

i think he's the president of flyquest

fresh fjord
#

used to be a caster lake

wild isle
#

oh okay

indigo moat
#

yeah he used to be on the LCK english broadcast

fresh fjord
#

now hes a coach/staff for fq

indigo moat
#

used to be 100T manager

wild isle
#

saying flyquest best in the west Angrysnoot

fresh fjord
#

G2s issue is they dont have solid enough competition to improve

#

i genuinely belive it

#

if g2 regularly scrimmed/played the likes of blg wbg lng or t1 geng hle theyd be so much better

#

its sad really

#

the region needs to improve for g2 to improve

north island
#

T1 and GenG in the same bracket...

#

also can we just switch TES for HLE for a full LPL vs LCK (+NA somehow) bracket?

fresh fjord
#

id take this

#

but if geng beat t1 just swap them over

tiny kindle
#

The draws are not bad

#

Lng wbg is a stinker though

#

Would've been nicer if t1 and geng were on opposite sides but not the worst

lavish barn
#

their peaks are easily the level of top lpl lck teams

#

esp with their crazy picks

#

and them alw ready to do non meta stuff

#

but they alw loose in the consistency departments

#

and decision making

#

when they're calm they make good decisions

#

best marco in the west 100% and better than dk wbg for sure

#

map play and all that esp theyve improved alot

#

but they're alw not under pressure to do how ass eu as a region is rn

#

if g2 can win 3 games behind 4k gold everytime

#

its a testiment to how shit the region more than g2 being good or anything

iron orbit
#

How the fuck did flyquest make it to the quarter's lol

zenith cairn
#

quarters, theyll get bodied by geng

#

apa shit the bed

iron orbit
#

Oh for sure they're getting thanos snapped by geng

tiny kindle
#

Fly are a decent team

#

Think they're on the same level as g2 only cause g2 are super inconsistent

#

They're definitely much better than tl

shrewd steppe
#

annual geng elims collapse coming™️

tiny kindle
#

Geng don't have to play any lpl teams

#

They're good

#

And they get t1 who they own in semis

#

As long as blg don't make it they're good

shrewd steppe
#

i believe in the nunu supremacy

tiny kindle
#

Tho I'm taking t1 over them

#

Worlds buff

shrewd steppe
#

oh right i gotta do pickems

#

another excuse to procrastinate doing coding

zenith cairn
#

lng, hle, t1, geng

north island
#

Just for the lols I want Fly to beat GenG

#

It won't happen

zenith cairn
#

rito pls

north island
#

But you can always have a bit of delulu

north island
#

Thats November 21st, how did they f up by a whole month

#

and those people decided that the bug wasnt a bug

zenith cairn
#

doing well so far i guess

north island
#

Atleast I'm still on A instead of C

iron orbit
north island
#

nice

tiny kindle
#

I think people saying g2 were more deserving of a top 8 are disingenuous and are looking at the tl fly draw

#

Fly were still super competitive and almost beat hle who's probably the 2nd best team in the world rn

zenith cairn
#

its more to do with the complete swiss stage fly and g2 had

#

fly had gam, dk, psg, hle, tl
g2 had pain, hle, wbg, t1, blg

tiny kindle
#

That doesn't matter though, wbg got an easy draw and they still beat blg to make it to finals

#

And g2 had the perfect opportunity to make it last year

#

They were salivating that they got nrg

#

And got absolutely punked

#

So the complaints this year just don't really move me

#

They're super inconsistent and it showed yesterday

#

If they were truly a top 8 worthy team you play whoever you get and beat anyone in front of you

#

Multiple opportunities to beat hle and t1 and they completely choked

north island
#

not to mention the triple choke on map 3 yesterday

zenith cairn
#

sure they definitely choked and shouldve made it, but that doesnt negate the point that g2's path through 3 title contenders is objectively far more difficult than fly's path

tiny kindle
#

And why should that matter, if they're a good team they can beat them

north island
#

We will always have those issues tho, next year the same thing might and probably will happen again

tiny kindle
#

So it just means they weren't very good

#

Their goals are to win finals not to squeeze it out into top 8

north island
#

But find a better way to do it than swiss that its fair to everyone

zenith cairn
#

it doesnt matter, its just what happened

#

nothing wrong with acknowledging it, shit happens

tiny kindle
#

So why are people making a fuss about it, it's not like we know if they would even beat fly

zenith cairn
#

its just a discussion point

tiny kindle
#

Just sounds like a very sore loser discussion point

#

I've seen na teams make it out of hard groups before so like I really don't want to hear it

#

That's the beauty of worlds, you play whatever you get

#

Complaining about hard draws just comes off as a we're not good enough to beat the best teams

#

I've seen c9 time and time again in the past make it out of groups facing multiple Asian teams

#

Like if 2023 didn't happen I'd probably be a bit more sympathetic but this team has squandered it against easy teams before

#

So they missed their opportunities

#

More people should be talking about lng if they want to complain, aside from blg who looked pretty bad, they got tl and dk

zenith cairn
#

blg had a somewhat easy one too

#

mad, psg

tiny kindle
#

Like blg really look fraudulent coming into quarters

#

Wins against easy teams and they looked really bad too

#

Everyone but bin and elk look shaky

#

On still hasn't found his keyboard and their jg situation is weird

shrewd steppe
#

i kinda trolled pickems by choosing dk and g2

#

FUUUUUUCK

quiet stream
#

i thought top was fraudrs

#

i wish this happened

#

weibo gonna win btw

indigo moat
lavish barn
#

By making into quarters you alw have more games in the worlds meta to prep for

tiny kindle
#

better teams can make it even with less games of prep

lavish barn
#

Well

#

Lck and lpl scrim each other

#

Who does g2 have

tiny kindle
#

g2 is just one of the borderline top 8 teams

lavish barn
#

Mdk and Fnatic

#

Remember lpl and lck only came later

#

Different scrim bubble

tiny kindle
#

well that's unfortunate for them being a european team shrug

#

you work with what you get

lavish barn
#

even if you're a better team with the wrong meta read just purely on who you have to scrim with

tiny kindle
#

point is it's funny that na and eu always fight over stuff like this when they're gonna get clapped in the top 8

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

i don't think so, i don't live in the world of what ifs

#

g2 isn't magically gonna become an asian team

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

i disagree

#

you put g2 in fly's place

#

they're getting 3-0d

#

by gen g

lavish barn
#

No chance

tiny kindle
#

bro t1 3-0'd them at msi

lavish barn
#

Fly will get 3-0 ed

tiny kindle
#

yeah and the same with g2

#

the west are competing with each other

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

the top asian teams play to win it all

lavish barn
#

Went*

#

And they were this close to making it

tiny kindle
#

and they got 2-0d by t1 this tournament

#

gen g is miles above t1

#

at this point

#

g2 don't stand a chance

lavish barn
#

well it's t1 at worlds and obviously bad meta read

tiny kindle
#

also papysmithy said g2 fly scrims were 50/50

#

so you never know

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

the only data we have

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

yeah but how can you judge hypotheticals

#

this is the only data we have

#

you can't just trust your gut feeling

lavish barn
#

because g2 has proven to be the closest to the eastern teams

#

And thats factual no?

#

even watching the games

#

U cant waych the fly vs tl game

tiny kindle
#

fly went 1-2 against hle and g2 went 1-2 against blg this tournament

#

and hle looked way better than blg

lavish barn
#

And then say fly are a good team

#

They're literally strat was

tiny kindle
#

domestic matchups are always a different ball game

lavish barn
#

Let tl beat themselves and we win

tiny kindle
#

the two teams know each other very well

#

they aren't gonna play the same style

#

against asian teams

#

their coaches even said that

#

in the post game

lavish barn
#

So they go full monkey mode?

tiny kindle
#

we've seen g2 go monkey mode and just grief games completely at this tournament

lavish barn
#

If we're gonna do this based on that game alone fly quest shouldn't be making anywhere near top 8

tiny kindle
#

they aren't above western teams

lavish barn
#

Something that no other western team can do

tiny kindle
#

if you want to say g2 is slightly better than fly i'll give you that

#

but they're in the same realm where they definitely get stomped by gen g

lavish barn
#

I disagree

#

But we can agree to disagree

tiny kindle
#

I've seen g2 lose to nrg

#

these guys are not special

lavish barn
#

I think its just disingenuous to say g2 aren't a good team

tiny kindle
#

well depends what you're comparing them to

#

to the west sure

#

but the favorites of the tournament

#

no chance

#

all the korean teams left wipe them

lavish barn
#

I disagree with that but again we can agree to disagree

#

G2 just needs to ditch the west at this point

tiny kindle
#

I don't get it, they're macro is good sure but they show time and time again to slip up under pressure, not to mention their early game is pretty bad now compared to last year

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

their ceiling can maybe match the best teams but they're also capable of reaching the lowest of lows

lavish barn
#

If its summer fine that's fair

#

But during worlds itself they had decent -> good early games

tiny kindle
#

literally all the games against the top teams they were significantly behind

tiny kindle
#

hle and t1 they were mega behind

lavish barn
#

Blg game 2

tiny kindle
#

blg hasn't even looked that good i don't think they're making it past hle

lavish barn
#

They started with a lead against HLE

#

Then threw it fair

tiny kindle
#

??

#

hle was the one who threw lol

#

g2 got completely wiped early, then hle made a big mistake that allowed g2 back in the game

lavish barn
#

Wrong game nvm

tiny kindle
#

then g2 were just unable to end the game and got outscaled

lavish barn
#

Thats fair I would also say

#

Considering their losing position and being outscaled they still found ways to push for a win

#

They had plays

#

I wont deny they'll probably lose against geng or hle or t1

#

But idt it'll be a 3-0

tiny kindle
#

against hle t1 3-1 maybe

#

but gen g is a 3-0 for sure

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

you haven't been watching gen g games

lavish barn
#

I have

tiny kindle
#

their early game, macro, and teamfighting are unmatched by any team in the world right now

lavish barn
#

I also watched them choke against hle

#

2-1 up in the finals

tiny kindle
#

"choke" meaning that delight hit an insane

#

5 man rell ult

#

ok but that's the finals lol

#

it's worlds now

#

that doesn't matter anymore

#

and that's hle not g2

lavish barn
#

Well yes ofc cause it'd worlds

#

It'll be a 3-1

#

G2 alw has strats and picks they can bring out

#

Still dk why they kept going nocturne ori

#

Looked useless as hell

tiny kindle
#

idk what these strats and picks are

#

they've never shown any of that

#

unless you've got insider information

#

or mikyx is just gonna pull out poppy again

lavish barn
#

My guy have we been watching the same worlds

#

Yas top for bb

#

Galio top

tiny kindle
#

bb has played yas top before and it's one of his best champs

#

if you want to talk about real pocketpicks that's inspired's nunu

#

or ryze taric in the last game

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

guess they should've used more of their pocket picks if they wanted to make it out

lavish barn
#

And Galio top?

tiny kindle
#

we've seen yasuo already in the tournament

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

yeah but not to the extent that you think it is, and i hardly think it matters against a better team like gen g

#

i just think they're worlds apart

lavish barn
#

Come on we can have this conversation without being dismissive and disingenuous at all

tiny kindle
#

that's just you homie shrug

#

your bias for g2 going too strong

#

i have faith in them but not that kinda faith

lavish barn
#

they'll lose

#

But I won't say 3-0

#

5 game series they'll have something

tiny kindle
#

i don't know how you can say that when gen g literally does everything better than them

#

even their best player gets mega gapped

#

hle's probably the 2nd best team at worlds rn and they looked pretty lost in that series if not for delight's miracle play

#

blg isn't in form, i don't think t1 has enough to beat them

tiny kindle
#

it's gonna be an easy run for them to the chip

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

hle

lavish barn
#

Ah hle 3-2

tiny kindle
#

point is fly have shown that they can teamfight, macro, and have weird pocketpicks

lavish barn
#

I won't dismiss t1 at worlds it's still t1 at worlds

tiny kindle
#

to say that they are that far below g2 is a bit disingeneous

#

especially going off this worlds both teams have shown great performances against asian teams

lavish barn
#

Geng is still the most likely to win

indigo moat
#

surely t1 are gonna beat geng this time

indigo moat
#

11th time is the charm

lavish barn
#

Fly are in the same tier as g2

#

They're still a tier below

tiny kindle
#

we'll never know they've never played each other at worlds

lavish barn
#

Yeah

tiny kindle
#

people were saying that nrg weren't in their tier

#

and they got stomped

#

that's why i'm just x to doubt on the g2 hype train

lavish barn
#

thats just completely on them so I don't disagree

tiny kindle
#

a team that has that low of a floor

#

can never be trusted

lavish barn
#

2023 was full them coking

tiny kindle
#

especially against better teams

#

all we can go off on is how did they perform against other teams

#

they both almost beat top asian teams so it's only fair to put them in the same tier

lavish barn
#

I'll alw trust g2 more than any other western team

#

Statistically it speaks for itself too against the east

#

Iirc there's a stat somewhere thay says since 2020 g2 has had more wins against eastern teams w/ less games played than all the western teams combined

tiny kindle
#

those g2 teams are long gone, i have 0 faith in any western team to win

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

the 3-0 against tes at msi was nice but besides that

lavish barn
#

It was now or never

#

The best way is for g2 to just yeet out of eu at this point if

indigo moat
#

they were in 2022 worlds

#

they went 1-5 in groups

lavish barn
#

Eu refuses to do anything

lavish barn
indigo moat
#

2021 they didnt

lavish barn
#

Cause I rmbr that team being piss

tiny kindle
#

that was the flakked targamas team

lavish barn
#

Yea the flakked targa

#

Bb fisted by China tops

#

Ah I rmbr now

#

Erased from memory

#

It was the rogue quarters year

tiny kindle
#

to me g2 rn just feels like c9 from 2016-2018, nice enough to maybe give some excitement against asian teams, but in terms of actual winning i don't have much hope

#

which is why i'm not really mad with the situation

#

especially considering how many chances they had to make it

#

if anything let a new western team have a crack at it

#

fly definitely will have some interesting picks to pull out

#

considering that gen g will just mega gap if you play standard

lavish barn
#

Still brings up how unseeded Swiss sucks

indigo moat
#

we'll see who they replace yike and miky with

lavish barn
#

This is why in cs Swiss is alw seeded

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

i think the swiss format's perfectly fine, it's supposed to be really luck based cause that create drama and chances for upset

#

it's miles better than the group stage format we used to have

#

they fine tuned it this year to get rid of civil wars (in the first round at least) and rematches

#

g2 may have lost but we still got to see them play against good teams which is all fans can really ask for tbh

indigo moat
#

yeah no format is perfect but i enjoy the swiss format

tiny kindle
#

i just think eu and na need to be kicked out of pool 1

#

their 1st seeds are on the level of like 3rd/4th asian teams

lavish barn
#

Seeding would be nice

tiny kindle
#

not too sure what you mean by seeding

indigo moat
#

yeah idk how that would work

tiny kindle
#

it's hindsight but man that g2 team should've never split up, like you make another top 4 and you split

#

it destroyed fnatic and g2 at the same time

indigo moat
#

time for g2 rekkles support

tiny kindle
#

unironically maybe

#

they should get berserker

#

hans feels too invisible

indigo moat
#

seems like the rumor for new jungler is skewmond from bds academy

lavish barn
#

Iirc it was cause perkz didn't want to adc anymore

#

Then he changed his mind but it was too late or smth

#

Tldr is

lavish barn
#

1st vs last 2nd vs 2nd last etc

#

It's how cs does it we still get exciting match ups and upsets where 2 good teams knock each other out

#

But less monkeying

tiny kindle
#

doesn't that just mean more bad teams make it

#

unless this is double elim or something

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

miky a scapegoat i been saying this

#

he has random int moments but he does make a lot of big plays

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

it's been like that since 2019

#

but fans are suddenly like oh miky is just an inter

lavish barn
#

I think its his inconsistencies esp in summer

#

That male them do it

#

But who are you gonna replace miky with

tiny kindle
#

i don't really mind as long as they show up for worlds

#

like t1 looked giga bad all summer

#

especially oner and keria

#

but they show up at worlds

lavish barn
#

Yea which the system still allows for

#

It rewards consistency more

#

Since it'll be using the world ranking system

#

And stronger emphasis on stronger recent performances ofc

#

But we shall see ig

#

I've got a feeling hans is kept purely for the sponsors

#

Because man's a fantastic model tbh for alot of their brand sponsors

#

Money talks

#

And he isn't like bad or anything he's a good adc

tiny kindle
#

idk i think it's just an argument whether you see more merit in being consistent or being good enough to avoid dropping random games, it's like comparing the nba vs nfl, do you think there's more merit in winning a bo7 or winning 1 game

#

cause the nba definitely rewards consistency more

#

but that's what makes the nfl playoffs so exciting

#

that's what makes worlds so much harder to win than msi

#

cause of all these unknown variables

#

where you can get a team like drx winning

lavish barn
#

And thats fair but also you would want the best at worlds too

#

And having to beat only lower tier teams to get there is kinda massive L

#

Not saying it's flyquests fault

#

They can only beat whay they're given

#

But it still sucks

#

There's obviously no perfect bracket

tiny kindle
#

i think making top 8 is kind of a nothingburger at this point, most bad teams get exposed at that point already

lavish barn
#

But theres still improvements to be made

tiny kindle
#

like sure wbg got nrg in quarters

#

but they still had to go through blg after that

#

it allows for bad teams to have a chance

#

but as the tournament goes on most of the bad teams get weeded out

#

actual good teams get rewarded and its more entertaining

lavish barn
#

Bad teams shouldn't have a chance to make it to quarters though

#

We shouldn't be rewarding it

tiny kindle
#

but they aren't bad though

#

i think fly have shown enough to be a borderline top 8 team

#

I just think if g2 need to rely on a luckier draw to get out then it probably isn't something to get excited about

indigo moat
#

true

tiny kindle
#

and making it just to get stomped in quarters is kind of a sad endgoal

#

like the west really should have bigger goals at this point

#

considering we've seen fnc and g2 make finals in the past

#

it's just a mindset kinda thing for me

indigo moat
#

they had a bo1 against hle and bo3's against t1 and blg and couldnt win any of them

lavish barn
#

I won't disagree

indigo moat
#

but if they made it to quarters they'd just be playing those same teams in a bo5

tiny kindle
#

the only people happy about fly making top 8 are just people who want to win the na vs eu argument

#

i don't really care cause they're gonna get curb stomped by gen g

#

which is the same in reverse for g2

lavish barn
#

I think it does matter in the end how far you go

#

Practice alw helps and such

#

And again we're back to hypotheticals

indigo moat
#

just have to hope that gen g don't know what nunu does

lavish barn
#

But u also can't say that g2 weren't hard done by the draw

tiny kindle
#

getting stomped in quarters vs getting eliminated in the 2-2 stage for me is the same

#

i mean yeah they got the harder draw for sure

#

but they didn't beat the good teams

lavish barn
#

Hle -> T1 -> BLG pretty much they worst draw they couldve gotten

tiny kindle
#

as a team hoping to win it all

#

should be no issue at all

lavish barn
#

Esp for meta reads

indigo moat
#

yeah some team is gonna get a hard draw every year

tiny kindle
#

not that big enough for me

indigo moat
#

kt had to play 5 eastern matchups last year

lavish barn
#

I disagree I think getting a good read makes a dif

tiny kindle
#

like i really don't think 1 more week of practice is gonna make g2 a remotely good enough team against gen g

#

maybe to steal 1 game like you said

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

but in bo5 it's completely wiped

lavish barn
#

I mean if you have a system where this can happen regularly it's inherently flawed no?

tiny kindle
#

also if anything

#

gen g only played 3 games

#

g2 got 5

#

you could argue they got more stage experience

#

while gen g are just rotting at home

lavish barn
#

but then

#

Geng scrims lpl lck bubble

#

G2 has eu na bubble

#

It's all hypotheticals

#

And I won't say g2 deserved to win worlds or anyth

indigo moat
#

yeah gen g have 15 days between beating hle and facing flyquest

lavish barn
#

It's more of systemically Swiss without seeding sucks alot more

lavish barn
tiny kindle
lavish barn
#

Why isit so spaced out

tiny kindle
#

and dk

#

and blg

lavish barn
tiny kindle
#

yeah but we're talking about worlds right now

#

g2 has got more time to ramp up

#

and stage experience

#

has so much more value

#

vs scrims

lavish barn
#

Lck and lpl came to eu alot later than the na team

tiny kindle
#

if you want to talk about eu just being a bad region then there's nothing more to be said there

#

it's just a region gap

#

but it's irrelevant to the point i'm trying to make

lavish barn
#

Eu is a terrible region yes

#

The point I'm making is

#

Swiss isn't as good without seedings and I mean that's my opinion esp from watching Swiss in cs alot more

tiny kindle
lavish barn
#

I don't like it when it's so strongly lucked based

#

Luck is fine yes but there's too much variance for me

tiny kindle
#

i can only really say that fly benefitted from the luck

#

everyone else had to play good teams

#

g2 just lost against better teams time and time again

#

luck only really lets like one or two upsets really happen

#

if you look at the top 8 you can only really say wbg and fly are the odd ones out

#

but that just means g2 are in that same tier

#

the only difference is they got unlucky draws compared to wbg and fly

#

but at the end of the day if they got luckier they would've just lost in top 8 instead like wbg and fly

lavish barn
#

it's fair but we'll never know ig

tiny kindle
#

yeah like at the end of the day fly/g2 both getting clapped in quarters wonkekw it's just an na eu dogfight while the east just watches and laughs

indigo moat
#

yeah the west just sucks

tiny kindle
#

na at least looked better this year

#

but big picture it's just nice little brownie points

indigo moat
#

we can just pretend 100T dont exist

tiny kindle
#

i just want to say c9 lost to that

#

100t shouldn't have even been there they sucked all year long

indigo moat
#

true we blame c9 for that

#

but now the lcs is dead and they're losing a worlds spot

tiny kindle
#

honestly deserved though

#

lcs is basically a 2 team region at best

#

maybe this will spur more competition and teams will get better

lavish barn
#

Hopefully

#

Forgot about the new regions stuff next year

indigo moat
#

yeah next year gonna be weird

#

not crazy about the 3 lec splits but now everyone is gonna be doing it

tiny kindle
#

yeah 3 internationals is kinda wild too

#

sounds like a pretty big burden for players

indigo moat
#

new international event is only 5 teams too

#

one per region
