It isn't even like c9 is looking particularly good or anything. This is really lame. I'm disgusted by tl

 

[Ambition]

At this point TL should stack shields on Piglet and let him frontline

 

[Stone Ocean]

Nope, Alistair pick is shit and they lost because of it. 6 deaths. You can't say TL had shit positioning for 6 deaths.

Janna would have been insane for that team comp.

Yeah you can when TL played like shit in game 3

Look at the Ali pick in game 2 and tell me it was "shit". That flash pulverize was a free teamfight if Dom or Fenix were anywhere near to follow up, Sneaky should not have had the opportunity to flash but he did because TL wasn't on the same page. If they were C9 would have lost the game right there.

 

[Ambition]

And now IWD is getting caught out. lmao

Edit: gg

 

[jerd]

Fucking unreal lol

They lost. That's all there is to it.

Xpecial played Janna 21 times compared to 7 times with Alistair. He way more comfortable with it and it synergizes way more with Gragas and Corki.

 

[Terbinator]

X spotting.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

HOLY SHIT. so proud of c9

 

[CGwizz]

Cant believe these guys dont go again to worlds...

 

[Pancakes]

LOL TEAM LIQUID IS CURSED BOYS.

 

[Ambition]

Fenix and Piglet are dead

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Fenix and Piglet are dead

inb4

 

[clemenx]

What an embarrassing effort by everyone not called c9 in the gauntlet.

It makes me mad that they don't even look great or anything. The other teams just rolled over and died.

 

[Terbinator]

What is Glen Bishop from Mad Men doing coaching C9 :lolol

 

[Ambition]

Fuck this is frustrating

 

[PhazonBlazer]

Aww man, Piglet and Fenix look devastated.

I would be too after being subjected to Sneaky's butthole so many times.

 

[d34thfrom4bov3]

Well I don't know what I expected. I don't know, I don't think C9 deserved it but oh well. Nobody in NA looks great which just makes me sad. At least I have EU teams to root for, and CLG. keep the faith

 

[idlewild_]

TL 4th for season, GV 4th for gauntlet. The curse is real.

 

[Nekofrog]

as bad as c9 is, you could at least tell they were playing with everything they had and leaving their heart out there. other players looked like they were just trying to cruise

 

[Shining Sunshine]

I wish Lemon played and won with Karma, so I could say Xpecial got Karma'd for those shitty finals commentary.

 

[Stone Ocean]

TL 4th for season, GV 4th for gauntlet. The curse is real.

You don't choose the Curse life, the Curse life chooses you

I feel so bad for Xpecial lol

Getting my wallet ready for the c9 skins

 

[cHinzo]

Really impressed C9 made it through the gauntlet. Awesome to see them at worlds.

 

[sleepykyo]

I refuse to root for clg. Zion is cool enough but I enjoy seeing Doublelift get wrecked.

I just want to see some combination of Ldg, Skt and Fanatic play each other.

 

[Terbinator]

Getting my wallet ready for the c9 skins

But we already got the SSW skins.

 

[Ambition]

I really want to see Imp vs DL
Edit: bubbadub gets to go to worlds

 

[Kotetsu534]

Cap'n Hai returns and leads his men from hell to Worlds. So many of C9's fleet of records were lost this split, not least the end of the original roster, but one crucial one remains - 100% Worlds qualification. What a journey.

But I feel for the TL crew. Yet again they come up short one series from Worlds when that's been their driving ambition. Seeing Xpecial crushed, chin on his elbow... and then Fenix and Piglet crying, man.

 

[Kalentan]

I was just about to get on and watch the game. D: Seems I came too late. Still CLOUD 9! CLOUD 9! WOOOOOOOOOoooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Getting my wallet ready for the c9 skins

Prepare for SKT skins. Faker will Teemo mid in the final game.

For a second I thought that clg had somehow drawn into a group with SKT1, Fnatic and LGD and was like "oh crap".

lol. Reading comprehension kicked in though.

 

[CDiggity]

It seems like destiny for C9 to make it to worlds...it'll also be destiny when they make it out of pools and then lose in the quarters. If Europe did them in the first time, and Korea the 2nd, I'll say they run into China's LGD this time at the quarters.

But if C9 got the NA 1st seed for S3, the 2nd seed for S4 and the 3rd seed for S5...is this the end of the road?

That's what I thought too and i was like man that system is fucked

That would've been the most hilarious group ever

CLG gets a seed only to become cannon fodder!

 

[kenbo]

Wow I can't believe that C9 really made it

They were a sure relegation team a few months ago

 

[CDiggity]

They can still be cannon fodder when they get KOO, Origen and China #3 in the same group.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

CLG is better than all those teams except probably China. QG, IG, or EDG.

Origen and EU are trash and KOO makes a lot of mistakes from what I've seen in their season and gauntlet.

 

[clemenx]

The worst part of this is having to endure everyone sucking off Hai as if he has some sort of superpower all over again. It was enough after the c9 bad start.

 

[zkylon]

just watched the series, unfortunately for me some asshole on reddit spoiled it and then every other idiot upvoted it so it was on the league frontpage

anyways, liquid looked woefully unprepared and c9 look like they're gonna get trashed by everyone

really sad to not see piglet at worlds, that's depressing

edit: not like liquid was gonna do well at worlds either, but u know

Yeah, I'm sad they didn't bench that trash along with WT.

 

[zkylon]

two less pretty koreans at worlds

such a shame

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Team fight wins League. It still shows communication problems within Team Liquid and their Korean members even after all this time.

The Koreans in the Chinese league also talk about the same issue, and a lot of them aren't going to Worlds, but most teams have really good Chinese players compared to Quas, Iwillnotdominate, and Xpecial.

 

[kenbo]

Now that the LCS is over its great to see that the definitive best 3 teams for both EU and NA made it to worlds.

Point system and gauntlets numero uno thanks Riot

 

[AcridMeat]

Liquid what the fuck happened to you?

 

[Akira]

I'm excited to follow C9 and the other NA LCS teams in the Korean bootcamp. It was fun seeing Hai's KvotheKelsier account become the first to reach Challenger. This year, I'll be looking at Incarnati0n and how high he can get.

 

[WesternHeretic]

Been out all day but WTF at the results. Down 0-2 to GV then TIP and now win vs TL 3-1?

The fuck is that shit?

 

[kenbo]

This worlds is going to be pretty excite

until the western teams get dominated that is
