Ill say Phreak is one of my favourites personalities on NA, he balance the pun side of things and the analytical side almost perfectly IMO. Listen man Phreak dont get reddit/twitter circlejerks get to you, youre amazing and theres a lot of people whod be really sad if u leave us, keep up your style and keep improving and innovating on it. ^-^
@@GOTHICforLIFE1 Mark already does other stuff and we all knew he was just a guest so I did not include him. Phreak in the other hand has appeared multiple times and fits Jatt's role pretty well.
Ya know I’m not complaining here but I opened my RUclips app and it immediately started to load this video of the dive. All is right with the world thank you
Phreak its often the ones who keep their mouths shut that have the positive opinions. While people may have favorites i think its abundantly clear you work very hard to be good at what you do, and anyone should be able to accept that regardless of “favorite caster” opinion. Keep your head up you do great on a daily basis and deserve the world’s cast and everything else positive that has come to you!
Phreak's main focus as a caster and in these shows seems to be just to be right. He doesn't think and just tries to throw out hot takes or make his fellow commentators seem dumb by talking to them in a condescending manner.
Phreak, you have always been one of my favorite casters, I love the humor and your knowledge is on point. In fact I love all the casters and players. I just love the competition during the splits and world's. It's so fun watching the games and plays. Personally I know I'm bad at predicting a game or choosing a favorite team, I just love the games and the players.
Didn't realize how much I loved Phreak as a caster till C9's games against TSM, Vitality, and Afreeca last year and again TSM this year. Always brings the hype.
Phreak, you've been here since the days of the 'This champion can be played jungle memes' if you were bad you wouldn't still be here in the spotlight. You're insightful and when you're not trying to liven up a cast with wordplay you can bust out analytics and math to teach people about the mechanics of the game. Keep rocking.
@@timfriday9106 i respect your opinion, but we all watch LoL which is a game to be fair so most of the public would consider us "lame" so you just gotta embrace it man :)
Phreak, whenever you become a dad, I expect you to have a series of your best dad jokes. I love you casting bud! Same with all of you caster. You all put in a lot of effort in the games you cast and keeping us entertained! Thank you!
I'm a fan of Phreak. I love the happy energy he brings to the casts, and I think he's a good combination of color caster and shoutcaster. I think there was a time some years ago where it seemed like he would constantly make small mistakes and incorrect callouts but from the games I've seen him cast in season 8 and 9, he's one of my favorites.
why would people not hate someone just because they are "unique"? Phreak is a bad caster, and not a very good analyst either... pretty obvious why he gets hate lol
@@AJD-od9nq you are pretty off base. no examples, no evidence, just a pointless "everybody knows this" statement. His analysis isn't bad, in fact he backs up information he claims by number crunching. He also follows the play by play well and illustrates what is happening. maybe you think his jokes fall flat and you dont like the tonality of his voice? Maybe you are young and haven't learned how to properly express an opinion yet, idk you gave me very little to work with here.
PHREAKKKKKKKKK probably my favorite caster of all time monte cristo is a close second MarkZ third.. phreak has the passion. i feel phreak catches all the hate because phreak is always speaking his mind
100T in Spring split was solid. Then they changed up their roster, and we know that Ryu was struggling with burnout. They mananged to still have a good regular season but with a shaky ADC situation, they didn't look very good. So great, you come in to 2019 with Bang and Huhi. Bang is going to have to acclimate and learn the language, while Huhi has not been particularly impressive recently. And im not sold on Anda. Maybe he plays ok, but I don't know his comms. So now you have a strong top laner who they have shown to not focus around, a questionable mid/jungle, and a korean import adc with aphro who has also shown to be inconsistent. Thats just a lot of things that have to gel and go right all in one split.
I never understood the Phreak hate, I still don't understand the Phreak hate, and I don't think I ever will understand the Phreak hate. One of the founding cornerstones of the LCS and eSports as a whole in my opinion. Keep the puns rolling Phreak! :D
@@kenbrunet6120 On C9 both Nisqy and Licorice have used Sylas on stage and as a mid laner it is assumed Goldenglue also knows how to use him. So when he said C9 had four Sylas players, Kobe was wondering who the fourth could be if Svenskeren, Blaber, and Zeyzal obviously haven't played them (on stage or admitted to using them off stage) in the jungle or support respectively. That left Sneaky as the obvious fourth player as he is well known for using champions that are considered off-meta for the bot lane. If anyone would meme Sylas into the bot lane, it would be Sneaky, lol.
is the 'public' part the part of that sentence that needs the most examination though...? I feel like thats at max, the 4th follow up question I would be asking...
Probably has been asked a bunch of time but i can't find the answer. Whats the background song called? I hav heard it before in Casey Neistat's vlogs but i never found the song.
You guys sure about that vi recommendation? Warriors > GA? Im seeing a lot of Vi one tricks all over the world relying on the attack speed that TriForce provides to proc the passive.
i don't understand why people hate caster or even phreak. He's awesome dude. sure his pun and joke sometimes are lame but he's great caster. All casters are great people
I like phreaks casting. He's a funny guy. I think 100Ts problem is anda's play. He's not bad, but he has weak jg presence and huhi has weak mid presence. Combine the two and you have low priority over any neutral objectives.
@@c2dholla I was honestly surprised when they announced Anda was going to be jg this split. Theres other more path conscious junglers out there. They have Levi in their pocket... I just shrugged and knew the split wouldnt be great for them.
Is there any chance for a 3 way tie for first if TSM beat TL in the final week? I believe in that situation; where TL go 3-1 and TSM go 4-0), that TL would be 16-2 to TSM's 13-5. If TL were to lose even one of those other 3 games, wouldn't their 2 game lead be equalized due to TSM's head-to-head record? That would then loop C9, TSM, and TL into a 3-way-lock for first. Is this considered a tie-breaker scenario? How would this get tie-broken if so?
The Aphromoo thing reminds me of the Olleh comments about how he was making horrible decisions in game and then the videos came out showing that Doublelift encouraged him to do a lot of them. :/
why do they think sion should be bad against kayle? Isn't sion a huge lane bully? Obviously not against tanks, but in general he was always very strong in lane
Which I think is a little fair. T1 was a pretty shitty person for a long ass time, but I do think he's genuinely reformed, but it doesn't change the years of him terrorizing solo queue.
@@noon8681 He legitimately seemed salty. And saying Quinn's been overtuned for ages? Guess all the players missed that until the very short time they noticed. It's mainly in the small comments and responses though
I got to mastery level 4 playing tank Vi Titanic Hydra+Iceborn+steraks was my 3 item spike with any boots I want. I would ult the carry, E-hydra-E-Q and burst them to 45% or lower before their team even started hitting me. It cracked me up because I basically had 3 buffed auto attacks that cast in less than 1 second and had a targeted ability to dive the back line.
Phreak, I don't know why people are hating on you, but you the best!
P.S. I am still waiting for an episode of Hide and Seek with Kobe and Phreak.
Josh Gordon Ikr Phreak is an asset
Hide and seak with kobe and phreak please
You legit made me laugh.
Hey Phreak. Don't let the haters get to you, a ton of us love you and your puns.
yes

Phreak might have been the best replacement of Jatt as he brings up stats like Jatt and adds onto the conversation too.

You don't think MarkZ is a better addition to something like this? I guess it's all about preference

It's weird that phreak gets hate when he is the only caster with a very unique style. No one else really has a "thing" like phreaks puns.

I've always hated Phreak, but after watching the first 10ish minutes so far, I feel like his general vibe has changed, he seems much more likable.
I was kinda expecting them to briefly go over Zirene leaving the casters. I personally enjoyed the games he casted
I hadn't heard of this. Details?
love Phreaks casting
I love you, Phreak!!!
phreak is a national treasure

Not possible because C9 beat TSM twice and liquid beat C9 twice I'm pretty sure.
@@BryanShenton that's literally the reason I think there's a tiebreaker possibility. I think my understanding of h2h might be wrong tho.
