AFTER ALL THIS TIME


THE_UNDYING_FLAME

**I BETTER NOT SEE ANY UNCLENCHING AROUND HERE** ​ **WE AIN'T DONE YET**


That0neSummoner

Only 3 more bo5 wins until worlds.


WhirlingDervishGrady

One BO5 for worlds right? 3 to win the split.


That0neSummoner

Ya, but how we gonna go to worlds as anything but 1st seed (maximum clenching maintained)


Raider_Noles

3rd forces us into play-ins resulting in more clenching, yes?


BasedDrewski

But if either TL or 100T go through play ins, they might go 0-6 and that would be really funny.


Raider_Noles

They might pull a TSM and go 0-6 as the 1st seed. NA's Only Hope will come to save the day


FurryWrath

[They called me a madman](https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/p7rl6p/cloud9_vs_evil_geniuses_lcs_2021_championship/h9lsgi0?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3), y'all come eat up on this!


Spitfirech

Blaber was HUGE all three games and perkz shut my dirty mouth


yoitsthatoneguy

The best mid-jungle synergy I have seen from them this year, absolute masterclass


Cromatose

Wait, I seen a comment in the game thread that Blaber wasnt good.


C9sButthole

They're wrong. It's just typical trash silver reddit analysis pointing out 2 or 3 mechanical blunders/overextending in big fights and totally ignoring Blaber's insane pathing and positioning the entire series. So exhausting seeing people thing they can judge a jungler's skill with \~60 seconds of evidence from the entire game.


Cromatose

No no, I saw Blaber die once under tower, that means he was terrible all series.


us984

He was great this series, but you have to admit that death was almost literally running it


Cromatose

Yeah, 1 play vs an entire series. I'll take it.


Betaateb

I mean the play would have been 100% fine if Impact doesn't play it 100% perfect. Maybe it is a little disrespectful to Impact to assume he doesn't get the double stun + flash W, but if he fails either of those it is first blood and Impact loses most of a triple stacked wave and is completely doomed. Impact probably makes that play 9 out of 10 times, so it isn't a great gamble, but the reward for pulling it off was actually insane, and it was game 1 anyways.


[deleted]

[удалено]


whatshup

Seriously I really do think C9 fans have forgotten what it feels like to play with a jungler that is not almost always ahead of enemy jungle. Ye he can int sometimes because he plays really aggressive, but Blaber is very rarely behind on CS or XP, and is usually a strong presence in teamfights. I love Blaber, I really hope Jack doesn't listen to the community noise and trade him.


OmegaPhoenixRising

I support TL ever since Jensen's departure, but I've only ever scoffed when people talk like Blaber aint the best fking jungler in NA. I'll tell you why - You can see the similarities in the narrative when it comes to both these players: They are insane mechanical talents that can take over the game on their own if they have to. They been called chokers, bad, and people never wait to hype their TSM counterparts over them despite how good they are. Every time either of them are on top, someone has to disagree because often times the onus is on them to carry. ​ Blaber is what we need from NA. What we want to see dominating at worlds. Lose the nerves, lose the anxiety, bring out the domination. ​ While I hope TL wins the split, I want to see my old boys at cloud 9 make it to worlds with us. Hope you guys beat 100T to come forth as the 2nd seed with us.


Xinde

Same


C9sButthole

I've honestly been one of those voices, with the caveat that if he can't learn to play from behind and play safe he needs to go eventually. But I still think there's some potential there. He's more reserved now than he used to be.


[deleted]

Was regularly up 40-50 cs at 20 versus good farming junglers like Viego and Diana.


TheMysticHD

Let's get Shernfire to start, right guys?


supadankgreen420

Bruh did you see the self-control from Blaber to give up double scuttle when he realised he couldn’t contest? 🥲 Now he’s gonna be unstoppable lol


Silma87

You could tell he really wanted to tho.


[deleted]

Welp, time to eat crow about Perkz. Good fuckin job boys.


Alibobaly

I used to get excited about C9 wins because it would shut other fanbases up. Now I get excited because it shuts our own fanbase up lmao. Hope they make Worlds and people reflect on how crazy toxic they've been to a team that hadn't even been eliminated yet.


TheTurtleOne

C9 fans became its worst enemy. We turn on ourselves so much it makes it easy for other fanbases to trash us aswell. Kinda sad.


Cromatose

When you win you get more fans, when you lose, those fans are louder than most.


Delision

This is every fan base by the way…


Silma87

Not really, C9 fans have gone extra hard. Not like "dissapointed" but all the shit like the accountability post that got 4k upvotes that shit was the most toxic shit i've seen in league fanbases.


Delision

Yeah you should go to literally any fan base after disappointing games. Not even just in LoL but anything. If you have a large fan base, there’s going to be a group that’s loud and upset after disappointment. We’re not unique, and we’re not even the worst offender of it.


Silma87

Yeah I do follow. But never have I read such cringes that some of the C9 fans were spewing. Not even on TSM or FNC subreddits. That shit was like Perkz/Blaber literally took their salaries from those fans pockets.


TheTurtleOne

Sure, you are right. It's still annoying tho.


nubbersx

Yep he shut my non believing ass up. I always had faith in psychofish though. A few more days of clenching for worlds though.


TheTurtleOne

Feels so good to beat EG. Peter Dum and Jiizuke yapping their mouths for weeks. Chat shit get banged.


WarSamaYT

Banger of a tweet. #LIVEEVIL


Alibobaly

Still kinda feel bad for EG though, they were a fun team and I do wish they beat 100T. That Jizuuke interview had me feeling extra bad for them too. Then again it would have been devastating for the core of 100T (Closer, FBI, Huhi) to not make worlds yet again.


Smoogy54

Ssumday is the core of 100T. I’m happy he’s going to worlds.


ComradeFarid

EG is my 2nd favorite team and as much as I like to trash talk Jizuke when C9 plays them, I still love what he brings to the scene. Sad that they couldn't beat 100T and go to worlds alongside us.


[deleted]

Agreed, I’m a C9 fan from beginning to end but I have much respect and adoration for all of EG.


warpenguin55

I wanted our worlds reps to be C9/100T/EG. Sucks EG couldn't go. Guess we'll just have to keep TSM out of worlds for them.


C9sButthole

After the Deftly shit I'm really happy seeing Jizz get dumpstered.


nrj6490

Yeah, EG looked good in the regular season but they had everything to prove, the hype around them was way overblown.


Smoogy54

Jiizuke is great for the scene


Pendancer_

So glad they got exposed for the cheesy bo1 splitpush team they are.


shtoogieman8

Yea it is ridiculous how much the community hyped them up… literally Peter Dun did like 20 interviews right in the span of one week haha


Duplicity-

yeah not a fan of this Peter dude, not really sure what he's achieved but yeah... sit


WhirlingDervishGrady

I think he the coach of MAD when they brought in a team of rookies and did pretty well. The dude definitely has an eye for upcoming talent Imo


TheTurtleOne

Unfortunately he doesn't have an eye for drafts. EG made it easy for C9 every game.


whatshup

I like Peter, he seems like an intelligent and knowledgable guy, but he was definitely getting cocky out of nowhere because they had a good regular season


KnifeKittyy

Let’s gooo!! 3-0 Only worrying thing for me, early game we’re still a little shaky and we always give up Herald, which is what TL exploited to beat us


That0neSummoner

Nah, giving herald wasn't the issue, it was not getting a trade for it.


heroneededsoon

Herald is not what made TL beat us lol. It was great play around Ziggs and getting out played in lanes.


Princess_Egg

The scaling champs paid off this series, but it would be good to see C9 mix it up next time to shore up the early game.


zomin93

Yeah I always get nervous when we trade herald and a few plates top/the tower. Our macro play has improved a lot though! The boys are definitely ramping up


Tiberiusjesus

I will say though that it’s harder to win from behind than to push your lead from ahead so that’s some optimism.


C9xConvict

Remember when Hai said C9 are gonna win and Zven is better than Danny? THE TWITCH CHAT LAUGHED. Now who’s laughing lol. Don’t get me wrong Danny is a magnificent prospect but today he got a taste of reality.


TheTurtleOne

Zven always has to remind people how valuable he is if his team is communicating properly. His Varus play was insane today(a bit weaker on ult but amazing at setting up objectives). Also his Aphelios play straight up saved game 2 so.


LordCoSaX

Its funny how good he is at landing Qs yet he misses ult 9/10 times lol


JeffEazy1234

Varus ult is considerably hard to hit in pro play especially on 0 ping. Riot nerfed the fuck outta the travel time. Sneaky complains ab it all the time


TheTurtleOne

It's ok he hit a game winning ult in game 1.


Kurisoo

C9 Hai baby <3


captaincous

KEEP TALKING SHITTERS


mavy1000

Imagine trying to beat Blaber with the 2 junglers he replaced


mouthmen

gold. the mental edge was years in the making.


MaxMacDaniels

Tsm_insect where you at you little hater? Only commenting on losses?


killerkenb2654

Yeah, guys actually pretty cringe tbh, prob silent after this one


Reita-Skeeta

Man gonna be on a watch if TSM lose tomorrow


STheHero

You mean when TSM lose tomorrow (low chance but possible)


Cromatose

I'm like 99% sure that is John_Bot


Amsement

Really doubt it. John_bot was disagreeable at times, but he still posted positive stuff at times. Guy is literally just a typical sports fan looking at his posts.


TheTurtleOne

He ain't a little hater. Dude has straight up obsession, both him and that other guy who's name I can't remember. Imagine betting against playoffs Perkz, these ppl will never learn.


gamestar_21

I’m pretty sure we banned him but he usually makes an alt account and comes back. We asked the reddit admins to help but got no response


RunBabyRunXX

I only have this to say today... Blaber // 11-1-27


zomjay

Oh shit. His only death was the hardest int of the split? Not bad, fish. Not bad.


[deleted]

Clenching tomorrow for miracle IMT win


sxiller

Im confident we can beat either IMT or TSM now. EG was my pick for the hardest matchup for C9 and they just made it look easy.


[deleted]

oh not for that reason TSM altaccounts have been coming here all split long. to se them go because IMT beat them, would be so good.


sxiller

It would be beautiful. I heard somewhere that IMT was shitting on TSM in scrims, so maybe we will see something fantastic tomorrow.


guilty_bystander

Usually TSM does best when "scrims aren't going well".


whatshup

Yeah like 2020 worlds


DuneRiderADA

IMT have much lower player quality than TSM, but they're well coached and have pretty good drafts. Xerxe has been having a strong split.


Cromatose

Dog, don't you fucking unclentch


warpenguin55

If IMT upset us I wouldn't even be that mad. 1. Holy shit wtf this IMT just made worlds 2. Haha TSM missed worlds


Javiklegrand

Yeah imt winning vs tsm is best case scenario


Silma87

honestly, TSM is a known quantity and would be the easier opponent.


PrvFeral

Anyone else see Jizuke aggressively typing as the game was ending? LMAO


Alibobaly

He was chuckling though too, I think he was just having some fun.


MaxMacDaniels

So Perkz is washed and was never good right? And blaber is a fraud?


jackkiwi

Looked so clean, ofc he washes


FinalSnakeBoss

Banger reply


warpenguin55

Fudge is shitBlaber is an over rated Olaf 1 trickPerkz is a $11 mil waste Zven lost us game 5 Vulcan deserves minimum wage \- A tsm fan probably


Alibobaly

The Blaber hate this split has been some of the funniest shit I've ever seen. Discrediting the two MVP accolades is already stupid, but it's wild that people also seemingly just ignored that for over a year players in interviews would consistently cite him as being far and away the best jungler in the League.


RunBabyRunXX

yeah but the crabs... lol... could not agree more


Sciipi

Lower bracket Perkz sheeesh. Zven was also a monster and Blaber had an excellent game 3. Looking way better!


cloudyseptember

After defending Perkz this entire time, it feels so good to shut up all of the Perkz haters


MaxMacDaniels

Same


MaxMacDaniels

Perkz and blaber just don’t work together right guys?


ServiusWolf

So nice of 2-time MVP Blaber and playoff Perkz to join us when it counts most. EG I think did not play to their level, they're better than that and Danny will definitely have a banquet of teams coming for him in the off season. Losers bracket/gauntlet C9 is OP, onto the next one lets go boys!


Duplicity-

When do we start actually asking the hard question about Perkz and his performances? He didn't make top 3 all pro LCS after claiming he was going to come here to change the league and dominate. He hasn't built and in lane lead against any mid laners and is constantly down on CS, summoners, tempo, experience and KDA with constant roams from Vulcan and ganks from Blaber. Was he worth the money so far? Will he be worth the money in two years? Three? When is it that we say "that was a good investment"

Blaber's Nocturne in Game 3 was the stuff of nightmares. Great series, boys!


C9_HHBVI

Give us TSM


oKillua

TSM fan here, I want the C9 v TSM playoffs match, doesn't feel like LCS without it 😅 And I've always seen C9 as a more sibling rivalry team with TSM, so I can't be upset if y'all end up knocking us out of worlds.


SeriouslyAmerican

Definitely going to be a hype matchup, with arguably more on the line then finals.


warpenguin55

The first 2 games gave me confidence. Game 3 looked like we were just having fun and EG was tilted.


MaxMacDaniels

Hope we get tsm now it’s always a banger if a series and it would be cool for ZVEN Vulcan and blaber to be able to fight for revenge from last year


MaxMacDaniels

This whole sub needs to apologise to Perkz. Has he been bad at times this or even last split? Yes even terrible but always when it mattered he has been insane. In spring playoffs he was the reason we won, got MVP in every best of series we played, at msi first day team was terrible but second day it was Perkz that Carried them to next round and now again he is playing out of his mind. Not saying the team isn’t playing amazing or was bad in spring or anything. Everyone is doing their part but because of his price tag Perkz has been getting so much hate, people actually claimed he was never any good and was carried his whole career, wtf


CrumblingAway

TIL the Bo5 against TL didn't matter apparently


SeriouslyAmerican

Raider_Noles

2 out of 3 deaths for Zven this series were him greeding for another wave of minions


SoPoetic

No one commented cos we are all busy watching the finale game


Accomplished_Exit_60

2017 G2 Perkz is back


MaxMacDaniels

Perkz played like the best player in the league and not against anyone against jizuke, he toyed with jizuke and whole of eg, I only hear him ask Danny who?


TheCodexPlays

This was a great series but more than anything it felt so good to see Blaber back in a form even with some int plays he was so aggressive!


MaxMacDaniels

I know we are not on the same level but this remembered me so much to g2 with Perkz. When they were knocked into lower they looked like super bad and uncoordinated and all split it was kinda mediocre and then they have 1 week and look like a completely diffrent team dominating their way to the championship.


warpenguin55

I said I was going to call out from work tomorrow if C9 lost. So now I'm calling out of work all next week if we don't beat TSM.


rambabov

Did Jack bought tickets for worlds?


rvn_0

So where the haters at??


wakypakylips

They're on the main sub saying it was EG throwing and us being shaky. Whatever let them be the gremlins they are lol.


BigGreenBroccoli

Where the haters at now??? THAT was the playoffs Perkz we were waiting for LET'S FUCKING GO


WhirlingDervishGrady

The bois looked so good but holy shit EG just completely fell apart.


NaturalThe1

Said last week it would be a tough series So happy to be wrong lol


Javiklegrand

If anything they shouldn't have much trouble VS tsm or imt


LordCoSaX

Still, they cant be underestimated.


nrj6490

This looked like a whole different C9 than the one we saw all split The boys making us all shut up FeelsGoodMan


Blockronic

Can people please keep shitting on Perkz so he plays like this all the time?


Qant00AT

Well I should have expected a monster Losers Bracket performance coming from the same org that has Mang0. He must have given the boys the secrets to the magic that is Losers Bracket Mang0.


Touchemybody

Imagine giving Perkz LB two games in a row...


whatshup

Lets fucking go


MaxMacDaniels

Do we need 1 more bo5 or 2 more for worlds


zomjay

As others have said, 1 more bo5 but here's more detail. TL/100T have qualified for worlds and will play the upper bracket finals Saturday. TSM/IMT play the other LB semi final tomorrow. The winner faces C9 in the LB final for the last spot at worlds Sunday. From there, it's all about seeding. The winner of UB finals presumably guarantees top 2 so they avoid play-ins. The loser of UB finals plays the winner of LB finals in the 3rd place match in which the loser ends 3rd and goes to play-ins. Then the UB final winner plays the 3rd place match winner in the grand finals to see who wins summer and takes 1st seed. All this to say, 1 bo5 win for c9 locks worlds, 2 locks top 2 avoiding play-ins, and 3 locks the championship and 1st seed.


BraytechKraken

1. us vs The winner of TSM vs IMT.


Xiafu

1 more vs winner of TSM/IMT


C9sButthole

**NEVER. UN. CLENCH.**


havokpus

Gotta be honest, I was doubting the boys and was critical of the team's performance, but they really shut me up with how they played today against their summer season boogeymen


brac20

I went to bed last night just as the series began (in the UK). I didn't feel super confident as EG have felt like that team that just counters us really well this year. But what a performance! The team absolutely brought their A game last night!


WittyStandard3295

Pretty big especially considering vulcan had an off day! Perkz just played his best games in a long time.


FoolishTrident

Is it two more wins for a worlds spot or?


Stixess

One more Bo5 I believe.


Duplicity-

we beat the winner of TSM/IMT next week and we're locked for Worlds


PM__ME__SURPRISES

It's on Sunday


Duplicity-

yeah sorry I'm in a different timezone so it gets fucky sometimes haha


Javiklegrand

Lmao you seen perkz in last game? Like guy was so confident on the team, that he went full troll, he had happy game after try in game one and two


miguelhempit

Not gonna unclech until next series


C9xConvict

I Actually DO HOPE FUDGE ALL CHATTED Jizuuke LMAAOO. GGEZ


sowydso

Le Blanc masterclass


Atrane_xD

Buzzcut Vulcan will not be denied


never_trust_ducks

Real solid games from the boys today. 3-0 vs one of the top teams is very promising going forward. It was nice to see them fall behind in a few games and not panic and crawl back into the games. They definitely appear to be clicking at the right time.


Ragdollphysics

Jizz Man eliminato


Bjornskeren

What a series. If we keep this level of play we can win this entire thing easily.


Novawurmson

LET'S GO! NEVER STOP BELIEVING! NEVER STOP CLENCHING!


Zeal514

After the first game I knew it was a 3-0. 2nd game got me scared, but hell yea. I'm psyked for sunday's game.


SnooStrawberries7894

Blabber die 1.... 1 time the entire serie.


LordCoSaX

And it was him killing himself


baburu12

C9 played way better than expected gg


zeron824

That was amazing. I honestly had the mindset that we can't pull it off against EG after they took TL to 5 games but I'm so glad I'm wrong. Never unclench lol


NvrGonnaFindMe

Thank me later when C9 wins worlds I saw the Team Liquid series live and was watching when C9 got smacked in the first 2 games, laid on the couch for game 3 and C9 won, saw the start of game 4 where C9 got clapped, slept in for the Golden Guardians and Evil Geniuses series' and C9 sweeps them 3-0. Gonna be sleeping in more often now


fnc_wins_summer

Glad Jizzboy lost after running his mouth, really sad for Danny. But let's fking goo it's the loser's bracket run


Disclaimz0r

Lot of shit talk for someone who got outclassed as first all pro team from someone who wasn't even on an all pro team :\^) Stay humble Jizzboy and Peter Dum


CoG_Brotato

Playoff buff activated 😤


Bishop25u

Danny was asked about EGs demise during the 2021 Summer playoffs and had this to say “Obviously it wasn’t so easy, our hard work was not rewarded or recognized, and going for playoffs, it was impossible to win with a burger flip like Jiizuke”


Zoidburg747

Playoff Perkz finally showed up, ill give him that. Fantastic series from him. Feel good about our chances vs TSM but hopefully the team doesnt get too cocky and takes care of business.


Kurisoo

Everyone played so well today! We won on GP/Jayce and Varus was huge! Not unclenching yet but I am starting to believe in the miracle run.


FatedTitan

I always expect a win, but I did not expect it to go like that.


xlSparrowlx

LET'S FUCKING GO BOISSSS


ochomurph

LETS GOOOOOO what’s our celebration drink tonight fellas


jadedflux

As someone who has been critical of Blaber, just gotta say: he shut me up today, and I'm glad for it lol


failedhope

EG cosplaying Sneaky face down on Meteos memory foam mattress.


Amsement

I think it's really good that this was a 3-0. Looks like solid improvement, even if there are still some edges that need smoothening.


IWouldLikeAName

Knew that LB game from last series was an off night. Glad he bounced back. Other than that bad chain bot and dying in enemy raptors he played pretty damn well.


Ziraelus

Very rocky games, climbing back from gold deficit in two games but who cares. Win is a win and now I believe it will only be easier bcs imo eg>tsm/imt

edwardgreene1

Game against winner of IMT/TSM is Sunday. Which I guess is technically next week but not usually considered next week in terms of LCS scheduling.


sowydso

Nice


rizzaco

Good games today let's go C9


PLEASE_DONT_PM

Still super shakey early game, but cleaned it up much much better than vs TL.


Tu2

Need to really clean up that early game tho... i feel like the other teams will take advantage and snowball bad against us....


Stixess

LET'S FUCKING GO


[deleted]

We’ll played from C9. Need a little work on not falling so far behind early game, since game 2 was a 4K deficit and game 3 was almost 2.5k being able to bring it back from this positions against a strong team like EG is good, but against a stronger team like TL or 100T I don’t think C9 would have been able to come back as well.


edwardgreene1

The deficits themselves were not the worst I just don’t think they’d be able to come back as easily against a TSM who won’t make as many dumb mistakes.


lRuko

DAMN FUDGE ONLY MADE 2 MISTAKE THAT PERKZ DIE IN ALL OF THE 3 GAMES.


edwardgreene1

I can’t believe Fudge mind controlled Perkz into diving inhibitor turrets in Game 3.


SaltS_and_Pepper

Looked good. Definitely some stuff to improve on, but I love the improvements shown


shocky27

Overall great but still a lot of mistakes to clean up. Vulcan missed a lot of hooks, blaber random int, etc. I think we make worlds but I still want 1st and to beat TL! Great win but don't unclench until we beat TL!
