Be careful of how much you gloat. For the last 2 years NA had a strong week 1 and then didn't make it out of groups (except C9). The same fate could befall EU.
Europe had a wonderful day 1. Not only for the wins, but the fashion in which they did it. Both teams (G2 and VIT) played to their style and it proved to be excellent. Of course this is BO1, so this things can happen. Let's see what happens in their 2nd games, and the second time they face the same team. Koreans are known to not be really good in BO1 because of their slow game, but the adaptation in B05 it's what matters here. Having said that, this two presentations of EU teams make happy for FNC, they are the most dominant team on their region, and the region is showing some good performances. Would this be the year ?
How is korea not good at BO1'S if they have the highest winrate at BO1'S of all regions? I agree they are even stronger in a BO5 but they are also the best at BO1
Jeronimo, we are talking about koreans, when I say they "are not really good" I don't intent to say that they are bad, but that they are better in BO5. If they have a weak point, it's more likely to come out on BO1. They are also proven to be uncapable on adapting during one single game, it happened to SKT when Rox picked MF support. If you change the "meta" for good, you can surely mess with their heads, they ended up banning MF. And Xanthorr, I'm from LAS, so it will a long time before my region reaches anything. But I'm with you, this might be the year for EU, wish you the best!
@@Pamekeb well, Im not exactly from Europe, but I fell in love with the game thanks to a European team (Origen) and I've been watching the EU LCS ever since I starting playing league. Now, my favorite team is Fnatic and I honestly feel like they can compete with anyone and win.
YEAA ASHE SUPPORT MF ADC COOL BOT LANE TOO GO EU!!! I WAS NA FAN BUT NOW EU FAN PERMENTATLY (NOT FROM EU OR NA) GO EU!!!!! EU > CHINA > KR > NA I NEVER HAD SO MUCH BELIEVE IN WESTERN REGION EU EU EU EU EU EU!!!
ok lets check the day china- 2-0 eu- 2-0 na- 0-2 korea- 1-2 lms 1-1 vietenam- 0-1 i think china and LMS appered to be very good, FW and RNG, KT seems strong, EU surprised a lot expecially vitality because this is a early game team going for late game that gives so much more confidence in them about NA i dont think its time to panic even thoe its 0-2 day they lost to KT and RNG so that was an expected 0-2 next time c9 and TL play will tell us theire lvl
I love the crowd reaction when VIT won, last year in China the crowd would go absolutely silent when their home team lost. It's great to see them cheering for the upset !
Jizuke were ofc the number one in top 20 list this years worlds right :) Funny when NA casters influence other people to think NA and EU is at the same lv of gameplay LMAO.
@@fayis4everlove different mindsets in general na has been korea ok copy metaslaves for 7years without innovation. While all others play their way and innovate to the highest lv of gameplay possible.
And after today G2 vs AFS, why is Kiin at 4th and Wunder not even on the lsit. Ok it was 1 game i get it, but when you put a guy and number 4 not 16-17 or something lower you expect him to be perfect. Considering he was the highest placed toplaner it was expected for him to be the best toplaner in the world and he got destroyed by wunder, not to mention him ultying with sion onto a wall or tower when he was going back to lane. Wunder and Jizuke should have been on the list. Maybe not top 10, but top 20 for sure.
to be honest though RNG plays serve the king style of play, I think they should just give uzi freedom of picking w/e adc he wants and have adv on other lanes, and counter jg bot the whole time. That way its be up to individual lanes other than bot to affect the game. It happen against Invictus gaming which is why it went to a BO5 but RNG on 3rd game their top was better and was able to win the game but it was hard fought due to uzi being neutralize and RNG not willing to discard their play style of serving the 'King' but its easier said than done. however if C9 would of played this way im pretty sure they would of won since licorice hasn't been beaten yet when he is on champ adv yet (besides once against huni and once against darshan but he was on even match champ so doesn't really count).
Imádtam ezt a meccset, mintha az SKT-t láttam volna, őrületesen jó volt!!!!! Mivel nincs SKT nézni se akartam a bajnokságot, de úgy vélem megtaláltam az SKTmet . HAJRÁÁÁÁÁÁÁÁÁ
1:01:40 that ekko ( hehe see what i did there ) when he shouts "EUROPE 2-0 AGAINST KOREA" at the end just makes then ending even more epic ! Let's go EU, this OUR year !
39:22 That is a very good point. I remember when Misfits played SKT, one of the commentators said that when western teams try to imitate Koreans, they fail. But when they play their own game, they can surprise them and put up a good fight.
that check mate when they fake force the elder dragon knowing top was pushed and the conditions were met to take the inhibitor but it evolves into taking the whole base at the decisive moment attila uses the TP and GEN is too deep into the dragon to get anywhere safe to recall, just amazing planing from vitality
They shouldn't play Worlds in 4 Weeks. Break it down in 1,5 Weeks without pauses and the koreans will have more trouble adapting. Everyone knows they are not the most "inventive" Region in Worlds but the best to perfect the Meta that shows after Week1 and 2.
I guess I am not understanding the strategy, but why on earth was the support on Gen G. taking the kill-shots over either a mid or ADC. RNG is an example of the exact opposite mentality. They feed all their gold to their damage dealing play-maker, Uzi... and it works!
It was an amazing game to see live, but I felt throughout the game that Ekko was playing overly/stupidly aggressive, and he did. He played it like SoloQ, dashing into Syndra without vision on anyone. Luckily no one punished him for it.
This is how it always is. EU gets a couple wins in groups and every year Eu fans think it’s their year. It’s not, Eu always upsets some tournament favorites every year but they never take it all the way. EU is way better than NA though, that also hasn’t changed.
The thing is, the year that is their year is going to look exactly like this and every year that wasn't their year. Some unexpected wins to start off with and people speculating "is this the year?" I'm not saying it is or isn't the year only that you can't tell based off day one. They never take it all the way until they do. Bigger upsets happen all the time.
Summoners were not really gone as a thing. They revised the lore where the summoners were actual group of powerful people of the runeterra world like lee sin wanted to be. So it's just a title now for lol players.
Al minuto 24:20 della partita inizia uno scontro che la dice lunga sulle pessime meccaniche di gioco: 19 colpi di torri consecutivi e il danno e' ancora nullo. Dove sta quel bilanciamento tanto pubblicizzato dalla Riot?

They won't have a chance against rng or kt in a Bo5, so it will be kinda impossible to win the finals.

When uzi says every adc are pretty strong, it means that no one is a threat to him LOL
what does it matter if they are good if he is the god

That way its be up to individual lanes other than bot to affect the game. It happen against Invictus gaming which is why it went to a BO5 but RNG on 3rd game their top was better and was able to win the game but it was hard fought due to uzi being neutralize and RNG not willing to discard their play style of serving the 'King' but its easier said than done. however if C9 would of played this way im pretty sure they would of won since licorice hasn't been beaten yet when he is on champ adv yet (besides once against huni and once against darshan but he was on even match champ so doesn't really count).

The first 10 minutes VIT was feeding a lot, at 10-20 minutes VIT was stopping their feeding streak, and from 20 minutes of a game VIT started winning.

That is a very good point. I remember when Misfits played SKT, one of the commentators said that when western teams try to imitate Koreans, they fail. But when they play their own game, they can surprise them and put up a good fight.

that check mate when they fake force the elder dragon knowing top was pushed and the conditions were met to take the inhibitor but it evolves into taking the whole base at the decisive moment attila uses the TP and GEN is too deep into the dragon to get anywhere safe to recall, just amazing planing from vitality
i'll check it, i've been 1 year off the game, so little i know about the actual meta and strategies
i watched it now, theirs was cleaner though, the tp's went off at the same time and splyce realised too late, too bad they didn't make it to worlds
