That what peak LCS looked like:
and it comes from europe
@@aleximm1 and korea
These western teams keep buying Korean players and getting grieved by them when will western teams learn KEKW
A clusterfuck of ego-plays and hard throws? word.
So...absolute reliance on winions...or should we say "the absolute absence of map awareness on wave positioning"?
Yeah, as a player of NA Server, I have experienced so many games where all 4 other teammates lacked the awareness and let winions end game. THAT'S HOW LOW NA SERVER IS. 🤣🤏
was one of the craziest endings i've ever seen - for TL to bring it back like that and lose to minions must have been soul crushing
what makes it worse is APA called for the minion but Impact/CoreJJ pretty much said to him nah we got it lol
@@nirvash241It's not a call, he asked because someone in their team is keeping up the timing on everything. If they timed the bot and mid inhib respawn correctly, their nexus will be invulnerable even if the winions got in. They're correct with the bot inhib but not on the exact time difference with mid inhib, which is 25 seconds away.
They ace flyquest...should be able to one person down to distract the minion while other push mid...it isnt that hard.
Impact could have easly backed, he TPd from the wolf brush to mid lane instead of just going back and TP to the team later🤣 absolute clown show
@@nirvash241 i mean they might have had it if busio didn't hold the minion wave for a bit
It ended as it started: With a clip that belongs on Wood Division Adventures.
I'd be disappointed if it doesn't show up on there soon.
Underated comment
Go pro and show us better....
What a Fitting end for the LCS an absolute clusterfuck of an ending for a league that provided the most entertaining clusterfucks in League of Legends history 😂😂😂
The NARAM special
"end for the LCS"....why everyone is writing that is ending? its 6 LCS teams and 2 guest teams...wtf...
@@JoanLein I think it's because it won't be called LCS anymore and some of the teams will be split. The teams will still exist, but not LCS as a whole.
@@JoanLeinits because its getting renamed 😤
Fr. It may not have been the best in quality but it was surely the most fun
The most lore accurate way the LCS could end. A total fiesta until the end. This is my region and I love it. Glad I was there from day 1 till the end for the LCS
New Fiesta will start.
4:05 APA did ask the team "Should someone answer bot?" 😅😭💀They knew what's going on, but hoped...
Is there a link to the voice comms?
@@mistercrociato91 "Streamers, Teams, Casters react to INSANE LCS Championship ending"
They are at the end of the video. Not full tho.
@@piotrmorag2597 thank you
having impact/corejj a veteran didn't help at all lmao
@@nirvash241 the call to not back comes from corejj, he also say "my bad" at the end of the game.
APA DID say someone should back but was waved off by his teammates.. jussayin
just tune out YAPA
No he asked if someone should back. Not that someone should back. In other words he wasn't confident.
just because they lost doesn't make it the wrong call, minion ai is weird, might've been their best chance
He asked, because someone in their team is timing everything. It's a huge miscalculation if they thought that if both bot and mid inhib respawn their nexus is safe since the difference of bot and mid inhib respawning is 25 seconds. In another scenario, they might judged that the bot inhib respawn will take minion agro instead of them marching to their nexus. If that were to happen, minions will destroy the inhib, face another wave before reaching the nexus, which will win them the game even if everything played out as it is.
its all miscalculation and truly their own mistakes. They should ignore Busio, they have Lilia + grub + tris, yet they took 2-3s only to kill Leona (heck APA even said to ignore busio and go straight for turret). Just tank the turret with Ksante & rell, what leona can do? you still had Grub minion as aggro
ofc it safer to ask someone to back, but Bwipo is ready with his TP, so both of them have to make a decision (even Fly thinks they going to lose, but Bwipo said he can end with TP if Busio can buy his a little time)
I remember watching the LCS championship with my college buddies back in 2014… 12 deep in a dirty apartment. Sad to see it go a decade later.
Dont worry, they are coming back next year but it will be a merged league with south american leagues. But it's the end of an era and they are expected to rebrand thus the end of the "LCS".
Yeah I remember it being fun until it became a retirement league for other regions
True it became stale for me when Bjerg retired so I stopped watching then
Lol APA called that someone should answer bot, APA then called that going for nexus meant ignoring Busio, and his team ignored him both times. He was a good teammate and followed the team, but listening to him instead of ignoring his calls would have at least meant avoiding such an embarrassing loss
Is every loss embarrassing to you silver players?
@@Darkstormsun9865 losing to minions while fully aware they are at your nexus but ignoring them is embarassing indeed
They couldn't ignore Busio. The turrets had back door protection, and they needed the minions in range to break it. You can see that in a replay when them hitting the turrets was barely moving the health bar until the minions got close enough, then they started to chunk them down.
The call for someone to back was good, the call to ignore Busio was bad.
I was there! I'd never been to a live league event but I traveled to LA for the last 2 days! It was so exciting and fun, I'm really happy I went. This moment was insane and I can't believe I was there to witness it.
such a great move letting doublelift and bjergsen carry the trophy - they deserved it!
Most NA moment ever.
If you watch the mini map they pinged botlane a few times. Someone made the call to race it and they lost.
Betting that a race was better than playing safe is weird. FLY could lose that game and still not be out of the finals, there really is no reason for them to baserase in a game 4 when losing the game hangs on it :P But im happy :D go flyquest!
@@nyfsavild6938what are you yapping about
@@nyfsavild6938TL made the horrible call to rush the base end instead of defending they were scaling incredibly well all they had to do was hold out and had one good team fight but it’s the LCS so
@@snorlax0000that obvious huh
@@snorlax0000 yes thats what i said. There was no need to bet on them finish before minions. Send one back and wreck all flys towers then win after reset. But they went baserace instead and lost
Thats crazy that even C9 got to be a part of the LCS finals
It wasn’t Fly who carried
It was Flys Minions who carried
The LCS continues to amaze me every year. I will also never be persuaded to watch NA LoL ever again.
4:40 you can see the dent in Tyler1's head regenerating
Might sound weird, but it’s quite fitting the LAST game for the LCS is won by minions (yay winions)
Like the game itself won itself for a special end
This is peak league, no macro just pure fighting
I can't say I will miss it because realistically I stopped watching lcs 5 years ago but I am sad it has ended. Despite being from the EU when getting into league from around season 3 I would only ever watch lcs. The casters the hosts the players the games I just loved everything about lcs so much more than any other region. I don't really know what happened but at some point lcs lost its magic. Feels weird that I can't even think why now but regions that could easily be seen as "boring" started feeling much more enjoyable to watch. LEC and LCK were so much better to watch and listen to than lcs. Even with the super low budget minimum set up that LCK had for the english hosts it still felt like better quality than lcs in the later years.
I really don't know what happened to lcs to lose the magic but I know I am far from the only one who felt that way as I remember it being something that was pulling 100-150k viewers every week even in normal split games to barely getting 10k and for finals before this last one would peak at 20-50k (and no it wasn't just because of co streams that is a cop out fake answer and you know it)
Watching this live was the funniest shit ever everyone went absolutely bonkers
Wild card region does not let us down
The Finals MVP goes to - The Red Minions from Downtown. What a macro by the Red Minions 😂
Bwipo said on IMLS stream that night watching the LCK Final that he would not have finished his tp before TL would’ve ended the game
He would have had one auto on the nexus at least
@@giogiolachance4313 Definitely not. That nexus would die in about 1.5 seconds (maybe not even) with all of them attacking it. Bwipo still needed another 3 for his TP.
out of those 4200 something games, i must have watched around 4000 of them. ive been a fan of this league since the beginning of it, and when this series ended, i freaking cried, man. ive been so invested in this league for so long, and i cant believe its over.
i know there will still be NA pro teams and players, and even on broadcast we will still probably see mostly the same faces, but it feels like its over now. i spent all of my 20s and some of my 30s watching this.
This looks like the first insane base-race that I've ever seen on pro tournament besides Dota 2, damn.
Watch IG vs KT game 3
In true LCS fashion, it ended in the weirdest and dumbest way possible.
This just proves. Minions=winions
so now when someone gets backdoored by minions we have to type LCS to memorialize it
Winions..... the most underestimated ghost of the rift
League players cant comprehend base races or defending too complicated lol
Tbf, they were racing against Garen’s timer.
By looking at how close it was, they probably could afford the support to recall and hold the bot wave (and APA even made the call), but if they didn’t finish the game there, they would be out of their turn, inside the enemy base, with their nexus open, that’s a really tough spot. They weren’t 100% sure of the timing, but they already committed to end the nexus, so the decision to not defend base and focus everything on the nexus to win the race makes sense (although the decision was wrong).
Also, take in consideration the pressure of that match, they couldn’t afford to lose, and that was the window of opportunity to win, if they didn’t have enough damage to win the race against Garen respawn, and only the support was there to hold him, they could’ve lost. It is easy to analyze after the result, but a split second decision, where the correct call depends on an estimate of damage output that could go either way isn’t.
@@laersonverissimo1715 Garen is a non-factor in this. They miscalculated and made a bad decision, plain and simple. The decision to not to go back is because their inhibitors are respawning in a few seconds, and it's either let the minions take down the bot inhib, face a wave before hitting the nexus (which didn't happen) or let the minions in until mid inhib respawn which is basically making the nexus untargettable. What they're wrong with is there's a gap of 25 seconds between bot and mid which basically when the minions ended the game. It's simpler to think that they could've sent someone and lured the minion away but at times like that they could've got tunnel-visioned and think it's better to have all 5 players to somehow tank some damage from turrets or even from the next respawning enemy champion.
The second glaring mistake is allowing Leona to get near their minion wave, which allows her to get aggro'd and lure them away from the turrets for 6 seconds. APA could've Buster Shot her away from the wave after the mid inhib falls but he didn't.
@@laersonverissimo1715core being there doesnt make them any faster. Also, you can cancel garen tp by just diving the fountain and hitting him with trist r
Now we need a top 10 all time LCS comp from you guys I'm waiting
It's nice to see voyboy back man. Specially for this occassion, well deserved.
people saying it was a CRAZY ENDING but for real, it was embarrassing, how no one tried to back and defend or atleast stall the incoming minions while the rest try to end. LCS is really doomed and merging cant help change them, heck, they might even get bodied by merging teams 😂
Western LoL esports in a nutshell:
LEC: Fnatic choking 5k gold leads 3 times resulting in 3-0 to G2
LCS: TL not playing basic LoL, NOT KILLING SUPER MINIONS
You are doomed in Worlds
LCS: can't lose something you never got.
One game of DK vs T1 had more trowhs than the entire FNC vs G2 series
I don't watch pro play live all the time but damn I'm glad I tuned in for this series
His look is giving beast titan….🦧🦧
4:05 if Impact doesn't tp to mid and backs to kill minions then teleports to his team they win the game
The Summit1g molly will never again be considered the biggest fail in NA esports.
Now THIS is what LCS is all about! A classic clown fiesta filled with wierd Baron and dragon fight, ARAM at 14 min and finally end with a winnion😂😂😂😂😂
What a legend🎉
The fact this happened like 3 times just in NA 😂
possibly the most perfect way for LCS to end. I cant think of any better way lol such a banger
Sally's reaction was the best, he even moved his head for us to see.
APA had called for them to answer, both impact and corejj said no. Kinda weird that the vets dropped the ball. Glad Fly got their gold though, was always weird only having like 4 different teams be champs
Absolute Cinema
APA: guys one of us B and kill minions maybe?
Rest of team: we like gambling.
Winion: this is my moment
Hopefully with this combination of regions, the LCS will finally reach worlds.
Only NA team reach worlds is Cloud9 and that was 2014-2020 Cloud9, this new Cloud9 is actually mid asf.
Regardless, I want to see C9 rule NA once again, though with the new region, we can hopefully get worlds finals and not dropout of 3rd or 4th place.
The most fitting end for the biggest 🦧 region
Lck and lpl are fun to watch due to the insane skills of the players, the lcs is my favorite region to watch because of stuff like this happening. Never change na, never change
Robbed of a game 5 because no one wanted to recall. I wouldn’t care if the final game happened like this.
APA had made a call for someone to recall and answer bot, but corejj said just push . Dude looked hella tiled after that loss
@@smarxnscorejj secret LCK spy inting the fuck outta LCS 😂😂😂
Yah they played like it was game 5, why not secure a win instead?
But im a apa-hating flyfan so im ok with it😂
That was an egregious C9 but it’s impressive how they almost made a map 5 with that clawback
Gotta open investigation on this.
The fact that the finals ended in a minion diff and no one backed is proof why just lcs isnt enough
This is leagues versions of overwatch’a C9 meme lol
Feels fitting that the last LCS finals ends with some goofiness like this.
It was the most NA thing I've ever seen. Hell yeah, brother.
What a perfect way to describe the game sense of NA players through out history.
Brilliant! I love LOL Esports
Absolute cinema
it served the purpose to show that it really SHOULD have ended.
And with this, it all went full circle and NA is finally a part of the minor regions, together with Brazil and Mexico. Now we need to find a way to get EU in there as well, and finally Worlds would be what it should have been all along: A China vs Korea brawl.
Seems like a better way to do this, would be to have the 3 separate leagues, and then do an Americas tournament, and the top 3 teams of that tournament go to worlds. Seems like a big ask to have the SA and LA teams play in the US for the whole year... and maybe even year upon year if they're good enough.
We need a fricking Minion Trophy RIGHT NOW!
Watching that blob of supers develop during that whole fight is funny. What a final.
Korea vs eu was crazy
The wild thing is, Busio actually said he went for a flash CC to stall, but he missed and thought he lost the team the game then they realized the minions were winning.
He was attacking the wave of minions to slow the tower push. Look again.
@@giogiolachance4313 he said in the interview after the game he flashed to kill trist
I CRIED...
Hey, could you talk about the Joblife x Mouz drama in valorant emea ascension tournament ?
I guess the 2 veterans really get over their heads with the decision of not answering bot lane 💀
The OverwatchC9 of League is now TL
Only in NA does something like this happen and it’s celebrated. 😂
its what the summoners rift want to end. minions has their own beef until these champions jump in.
They do call them Winions for a reason.
A perfect ending to NA as a major region
Losing to unnoticed minions just proved that LCS really is a clown fiesta.
CBLOL and LLA died for this...?
I get that they're both a shithole region, but at least they made it enjoyable for THEIR OWN regions. Next season, all it will manage to do is for the remaining 6 LCS teams to get a free punching bag with.
I'll be honest. I expect Brazil to consume the LCS in maybe two years tops. With access to better oppenents they might actually be a threat..
@@thetidycookie LOL did you watch the play ins last year?
@@thetidycookieYou guys killed our region because yours was shit, now we will get fucked due to a money gap, but I guess the empire gotta empire
@@alextuller6222dumb response. In reality, all 3 Americas regions are suffering heavy losses year after year and Riot chose the best alternative to “reset” and build a new foundation on what was previously a dying star. It doesn’t matter if LLA or LCS was “entertaining” if it was simply just bleeding money in its whole life cycle. Change was needed.
@@alextuller6222 What did OCE ddo to you?
Maybe the real friends were the minions we farmed/missed along the way
Losing a base race to minions is the most NA thing NA has ever done.
It was insane i barley watched it but it was good
The reginald blue card of endings, a fitting end to the clown fiesta
I have never been so pissed at a game in my life but this had be so pissed that I almost broke my laptop ( I’m deployed rn ) and I couldn’t sleep bc I was so mad
NA: Well known for having imported players representing America
Also NA: Imported korean minions on flyquest for the final LCS game.
I still think the timing was off with garen coming up and could TP bot, they didn’t even destroy a turret before garen started his TP and may have won the game that way. Don’t know why they risked it
Their worlds be like: All roads lead to the Airport
It was a blunder for TL to go for that base rush when they have no nexus turrets to defend their nexus.
They just needed one member to stay in defense. With lia being the obvious choice.
In true na fashion the last game was a wild one 😂
T1 reaction was priceless lmao
Apa did call a back but was ignored
We are so bad we got relegated to a wildcard league.
This is the most NA thing that could have happened
4:01 You could see the massive red storm that's moving on bottom map.
Dear bronzie, that is not the case for players and only for spectators. /facepalm
@@BojanKordicIm preety sure pro players dont play with minimap disabled
The ending of LCS was the same as the LCS was for a long time - a mess 😂
So fitting that the LCS ends with a C9
So how do I watch what actually happened and went down ? all were seeing is that team storming the base and the game ending with the other team winning
Basically it's the lapse of judgement. All 5 of them went to the enemy base even though they recognized the threat of minions destroying theirs thinking that they had enough time to bust their enemy's first. So they got beat by literal NPCs because only 1 player from the opposing team was active at the time and it still was on their own base.
@@abunja ya that’s what I figured woulda been nice if they actually showed some footage of it happening
@@Obito1994 All we have right now is from the broadcast. They have a small screen on the bottom left where you can see how minions are advancing to the nexus but if you watched it on a stream partner they likely put their camera on top of it so you can't see much of it. If someone can make a deep dive using game replay that'll paint a better picture of this.
Look again there is a split screen cam on TL nexus getting ram by creeps
It really ended with peak
WHAT?! NA being sloppy and doing something stupid?! NEVER!!!
The minions the only thing on the rift that should be respected.
Including LS here is diabolical 😂
I prefer IWD
It completely ruined my belief that TL had any hope in Worlds.
Rip LCS you wont be missed
