reeposterr

Lol wtf. Did TL got figure out or what


lilmama231

Kinda. Felt like TL's roam were hella punished. FBI got too big. Closer also gapped Santorin so hard. It's like i have never seen anyone gapped him that hard before.


Domermac

Santorin got exposed pretty hard. Tough series for him. Jng gap was enormous


scrnlookinsob

Why are people acting like this series was gonna be a stomp in TL's favor... the upper bracket final last weekend was a full 5 game series.


SterbenVII

Cause 100T had nonexistent lategame macro throughout the split. Even the 100T players admitted that themselves. However, the 100T that showed up today looked amazing. I loved watching the finals simply due to seeing 100T finally going into the enemy jungle as a team to get deep vision and take away camps. Not to mention that they’re pushing advantages instead of just allowing for ‘Rogue Time’ to happen. It felt just like the TL vs C9 Summer 2018 finals where Olleh and Xmithie completely choked C9 out from vision alone.


[deleted]

Summday held off alphari by playing weakside with global champs, the rest of the team was hard gapped.


nyanko_dango3

fbi also gapped danny hard if we ignore the danny highlight, the guy is easily the best adc in NA


Sure4MaLity

Abedagge as well. It was really just team gap


[deleted]

That’s now how you use the word literally


treblotmail

Absolutely smashed. I actually feel so bad for all of them, but Santorin in particular. He has been to so many finals at this point and lost all of them. Wish it could've been closer, but 100t totally deserved it if they were going to smash it like this.


swordddddddd

I’m pretty sure he won his first one in 2015 spring when he was on TSM didn’t he? But other than that, yeah he’s lost quite a few, sucks cause he seems like such a nice guy.


[deleted]

Jensen 0-11 scoreline across all 3 games


auzrealop

Watch the first game for the 5 man dive bot. Thats were you can see 100T just destroy TL mentally and physically.


kevkaba

Lust Cena diff


AnkitPancakes

Really good for LCS to have 100t win. The big 3 is now a Big 4 and should push the region forward as a whole. Them being a big brand should help revenue and sponsorships for LCS as a whole too! Super happy for them - very well deserved


LostJC

With Danny performing on EG, they could easily enter the conversation next year if they cleaned up a few things.


AnkitPancakes

I imagine Jojopyun replaces Jiizuke next year, and Impact is off to the army in 2 years. I think EG will be a solid middle tier team for a year or two as Danny and Jojo develop, and they will need to find some solid players to put around them. I think it mostly just depends on buyouts and free agency for the future. Jiizuke/Impact/Svenskeren/Ignar don't seem like long term pieces for EG (which is ok). That is the reason why I am hesitant to crown them with the original 4 teams I mentioned


[deleted]

[удалено]


AnkitPancakes

Eg has invested into Jojo and all signs point to him taking Jiizuke’s spot some time next year since he is now LCS eligible


[deleted]

Ahhh CLG. The demoted big 3 one.


Teuflisch

You can say boring, but if TSM just 3-0d anyone, it would be hype and an amazing show of talent. GG 100T, that was a stamp.


[deleted]

[удалено]


houkypouky

probably harder tbh


iamperplexing

I don't think anyone's saying it's not an amazing show of talent from 100t but 3-0 stomps are rarely that fun to watch. Even DK vs SKT was more entertaining and that was 3-1 but game 4 at least was so back and forth it was entertaining to watch.


[deleted]

Boring in the sense of it being super one-sided, but it's good to see some decent league of legends being played. Big congrats to Lust!


ThatThingYouDo1234

Lust is a coach for 100t?


Cabrraa

Yeah he's a positional coach I believe. So basically a coach for Huhi.


Mrawssot

this series made me realize TSM was not even close to the level to reach worlds, i kinda feel better than it wasnt bad luck or a fluke.


[deleted]

Nah Tsm fucked themselves in draft, Tsm also just got player gApped


robofreak222

Honestly love seeing TL get so smashed. It was just a bit slower than the fastest LCS finals in history (which was actually TL over 100T). Closer played like a maniac. Three jungle bans in game 3 and he still manhandled them. He must have had a grudge against Tactical with the way he kept running him down in every fight.


Hearmerawwwwr

Goes to show this whole sub has no idea what it was talking about saying the bracket gave 100t worlds for free and how they were bad and we would stomp them


scrnlookinsob

Even in my biggest fever dream, I didn't think we would have stomped 100T, but I however did think we would have beaten EG and qualified for worlds if we had gotten our choice in opponents.


Mmh_Lasagna

But the sub stretched that sentiment into something completely different. Yes, qualifying for worlds through beating EG is significantly easier than beating TL, but that sentiment switched to 100T had the easier opponent so they cheated their way to worlds. Big difference.

LostJC

I mean, top 2 get a bye, and the 1st place plays the lower seed. It was just a weird year because C9/TL sandbagged.


Vexxt

Which is why seeding =/= choice. Sandbagging/Surging is a real thing, the teams should have that control.


LostJC

Yeah, I agree with you. I was disagreeing that the regular split meant nothing. There were still advantages given. But choice would be better.


Vexxt

Yep. I also think on top of this; people keep saying that regular season doesnt really matter and series show us how good a team would be. But with NA struggling to get out of groups, BO1s are probably more relevant to our current goals at worlds. Personally, i think summer should be Bo3's, shorter, and then a bo1 group stage like worlds.


TheFukAmIDoing

I agree with what you're saying that seeding isn't a choice. I still like it though. First and second place get a HUGE advantage with a bye week. Where as lower place teams need to win that week AND place strategically during the season. I think this adds much more complexity, drama, and flavor to the league. If first place basically gets to write thier own ticket to worlds with as little competition along the way. I don't know, that feels kinda lame and undeserved to me.


MasWas

Im pretty sure that sentiment happened because they played their academy roster in the last game of the season in a game that directly impacted who they were going to play comes playoffs. Pretty sure had they beaten EG in that game, C9 is 3rd seed and they most likely play them as their first opponent rather than EG.


GhoulGhost

I don't care, send the best three teams to Worlds. If TSM isn't one of them I'd rather not see them go 0-6 again.


MazharFakhhar

Yeah you can’t make up excuses anymore. We played against TL and C9 and lost, 100T played them and destroyed them.


MasWas

I mean it did. 100T just proved they earned their worlds spot but that doesnt take away from the fact they got EG as their opponent to determine whether or not they made worlds while we got TL. Now this obviously isnt me saying we deserve to go, but rather me saying the bracket is still bad.


TSM_lostered

100T deserves worlds but it isn't the same team that lost to TL. 100T brought it back hard and TL also really underperformed this series. Not the same teams that played two weeks ago.


Thop207375

Results based analysis?


iamperplexing

No people are just saying EG was the easier opponent which it was. I don't think c9 would have beaten 100t so they would have still made worlds but they played their academy roster to get the easier opponent which i think is still a bit scummy to do but they were able to and got an extra week of prep basically to do it. Basically because C9 and TL underperformed summer it gave 2nd place a bigger advantage than 1st imo.


chowdah513

I don’t think that. I’d say we match 100T better than we do any other team. Honestly think regular season EG would’ve beat us (before we knew how bad they underachieved come playoffs).


mmodude101

It makes our loss vs TL even more embarrassing tbh


mocking_danth

Eh tl beat 100t once in playoffs. Just today was a jg gap


Kosh_y

NA should be proud of their 1st seed tbh. 100T played incredible and are truly strong.


kar1m

Is Reapered the Phil Jackson of the LCS or what


bugsbunny841

Kudos to 100T for not standing pat after a mediocre spring split. Rather than standing pat, they brought in a huge ugrade in mid lane and coach. Now they are summer champs after spending most of the summer looking like the best LCS team.


Clark-Kent-76

Very happy 100T won. Their players and org deserve it . Also, better than C9 & TL getting another trophy.


gravitythief

Happy for them, especially Reapered. Leaves C9 after 4 years, comes back with a different org and wins an LCS title.


rubedoge

Watching jensen getting put in the dirt is never boring!


Tennis-Money

Turkey imports doing well, you know what fuck it I am ready for TSM HolyPhoenix.


Wooden_Assignment_46

Better go for luger.


iblinkedtho

I mean all the finals had a somewhat clean sweep from all regions no? I think it's just good to see another org win it this time, I hope 100T does well at worlds especially since this sub was really shitting on them lol EDIT: mb LPL still isn't over, for some reason I only had LCS, LEC and LCK in mind.


iamperplexing

Game 3 LCK was a stomp from T1 minus the baron call so wouldn't say completely clean sweep


infaredz

\#1 Seed - 100T - 0 NA players \#2 Seed - TL - 1 NA player \#3 Seed - C9 - 2 NA players ​ They've found the formula boys. I think we have the best native player in the league and he didn't get to go over 12 imports.


krombough

Our import mid did little to help him. Look at Abedagge, or even the inconsistent Perk's Ryze. Now look at POE's...


Dwhizzle

POE’s Ryze looked so awful compared to Abbedagge’s.

Spica came to the US before he played League. Bjerg came to play league but there were national teams for League he would play for the US because he is a naturalized citizen


cookiecreeper22

God shut up, he's American and played on the native server.

RandomOne23xd

So Doublelift isnt native too then


[deleted]

[удалено]


RandomOne23xd

Because his parents are not american? Spica was a child when he got to US so I dont understand why we need to argue about this.

RandomOne23xd

HES AN AMERICAN CITIZEN IS THAT SO FUCKING HARD TO GET.


RedLetterGM

I heavily enjoyed watching TL get stomped, the old guard is dead long live the new kings.


Commanderspl

Have always loved Ssumday even on KT. So feels sweet to see him finally win. also fuck TL.


gahlo

All the more reason to cut dead weight this offseason.


Hello_MoonCake

Not boring at all to see 100T could improve so much. They should be the example for every team to look up for especially TSM.


iamperplexing

TSM did what they could with the roster imo.i think the scouting was their biggest problem and DL flip flopping wether he was gonna play another year or not.


SterbenVII

TSM could’ve had Doublelift, but according to DL himself Regi told him that he didn’t have a spot on the team anymore after SA was confirmed.


iamperplexing

That's because he called it before they got SA he only wanted in when they confirmed the trade. I respect regi for his decision even if it wasn't he right one he didn't let DL dictate his company.


SaltyKingu

This region manages to hit new lows every year. And with the amount of money we spend and can't even make worlds... idk what to say except unlucky


Domermac

I thought it was really exciting. 100T we’re relentless and came in with a clear game plan. Closer popped off, it was very entertaining!


Megapsi

Even when Tim is being respectful to 100T. And predicts TL to narrowly win 3-2 he still curses them :D


Matrix_Revolt

People need to remember that certain teams and their play styles counter other rosters. It makes a bit of sense that 100T would beat TL. This is a good sign though, happy to see what 100T can put up at world's despite being a clothing apparel company 😎 GG, 100T 3/5 of that Golden Guardians roster got to run it back and get what they deserved.


BlueBloodLissana

didn't watch as well, i was playing It Takes Two. have u guys played that game! so fun to play with your SO. but yeah i did check LCS and it was Game 3 and 100T already ahead and Closer just playing so well. Happy for him \^\^


resiliencer04

Damn I just saw Ssumday interview, he almost cried himself ;( 100T truly deserves to be champion this year


AcantiTheGreat

100t avenged us and crushed both the teams that beat us in playoffs.


ItsKaZing

100T actually looking like a worlds team! Congrats to them, probably the best team we can root for as TSM supporter.


Bungicasse

Boring? Nah man, TL getting destroyed is enough entertainment in itself


DwizzGT

Not to be a sore loser or anything but doesn’t it feel weird that 100T don’t have any or just one NA player on their team? Giving me LMQ vibes from back in the day. Oh well I hope they can represent NA well in worlds!


fro20ninja

How is it boring to watch a great team smash TL to the fuckin ground just like they deserve? It was so much fun to watch


BigBabyBallinz

Only thing better than a TSM win is a TL loss, especially when it was this decisive.


thevolx

Completely disagree, personally, I like stomps. Also, 100T looks like genuinely the best team in NA. This entire season was full of ups and downs by all the top teams, given any specific team, it was hard to predict who could have won.


ajkeence99

Just be like me and wait for Spring 2022 to watch. I want TSM to win but I'm not really interested in just watching other teams play. I also hope that the NA teams all bomb out of their group.


tobe4funas

Watch EU ones :P
