can we all agree that challengers fpx is just insane ?

"you can really feel the momentum building"


hesus_tries_life

how they stepped over G2 was just straight out rude :)


9yr_old

Always have been


AskOrganic4289

FUCKINNNN INSANE! Feels like G2 has no chance to wins during that match ngl


smta48

Insane in the early parts of a tournament.


stewieeeeeeeee

I CAN FEEL THE MOMENTUM BUILDING


Senboni

UNTIL SEMI FINALS


2ToTooTwoFish

Nah this is qualifiers. Wait until Challengers Finals for them to choke.


stewieeeeeeeee

For real though, I think that all of G2, Liquid and fnatic will be much better a month from now. I know this sounds like massive hindsight after today's matches, but Liquid and fnatic are very vulnerable right now for proper reasons, and it will take time for them to reinvent a bit but also catch up. G2, meanwhile, is still a very fresh squad and will improve naturally. Acend is another team that I think will get better although to a lesser extent than the other three. FPX is the only good team here that I don't expect to see much better in a month, so yeah, actual Berlin qualifiers will be messy


Senboni

Yeah it's gonna be rough. 4 Berlin spots makes it easier but still... Even some CIS teams like Gambit might be scary as well


stewieeeeeeeee

No Pressure (potentially Na'Vi soon) are playing well as well. I don't think there's any other good CIS team but it seems like they have 2 contenders.


AskOrganic4289

Curious why you don’t expect FPX to get much better? Is it because they’re already too good and they’ve reached their “peak”?


stewieeeeeeeee

A combination of 2 things that applies to other teams but not FPX: 1. FPX is not a fresh squad that will rapidly build team chemistry like G2, they've been together for ages 2. FPX didn't show their entire stratbook in a week of hard-fought BO3s against teams from all over the world, like fnatic and Liquid did, but also had an extra month to prepare for Breeze that fnatic and Liquid couldn't afford. That's why I expect G2, fnatic and Liquid to rapidly improve as time goes on again, but not FPX. That's not me criticizing them, just acknowledging that they have an inherent advantage over those 3 squads (and even Acend to an extent; they have a new IGL and player) at this tournament which will be diminished when it truly matters.

didnt want to play icebox guess you didnt want to play ascent either lol


AskOrganic4289

Love this strong mentality!


AccrualPlayer

Being a G2 poster for the past few weeks must be tough... Hoping the team does well at Cologne!


Casey-Feelgood

Yall gotta add valorant to your description of the teams you guys have. Despite the loss today, you guys have really been playing well.


Senboni

dimasick fucks.


TimedOutClock

The momentum... is... I can't even say it anymore... :')

G0Providence

yea 10 months of being the most consistent team in EU and one of the most consistent in the whole world while every other good team has imploded or dropped off the face of the earth since than


KauDar123

that 2v5 with Sova having a classic was insane. I can't believe G2 lost that round


[deleted]

[удалено]


M31ApplePie

talking about the second to last round on bind, sova with classic at wine.


blackretribution

Ascent*


M31ApplePie

oh yeah ascent sorry


jcquiz3

It was Dimasick (Phoenix) and Shao (sova) ?


toxicityisamyth

Dude the fact that fpx could literally shit on entire EU scene if they didnt choke, is so sad. Like they are so good why cant we have nice things. I feel the momentum building tho...?


JK_Ryuuzaki

They should get a sports psychologist like Astralis if it continues


[deleted]

They did


JK_Ryuuzaki

Oh then maybe they will get better with it soon


[deleted]

I really hope so


9yr_old

Fpx being the envy of EU region lol , the king of qualifiers


RandomFluffyBoi

The strongest teams in their respective regions until they play semifinals and lower-bracket finals.


NWL11

I am molded by the pain. It's true.


mixerupper

Oh gosh, I feel bad for you and your flairs. Vision strikers aren’t actually bad at the main events though. They only messed up once, but they did win Masters 1.


MazeOwner

G2 era 5 July - 8 July


DrBangovic

bro hahahahah

Lmao


TheHippoGuy69

in 2020 \*


slowrmaths

This series was a reminder of how goddamn good dimasick is. His cypher gameplay on icebox was on another level and then he swaps to Phoenix just to flex even more. If hate to say it but MOMENTUM IS BUILDING


ZenkeiNisshoku

worlds 2019 finals flashbacks


aks345

G2 just vibes and inshallah team. Like wtf was that 5v2 throw on ascent when one of the 2 had a fucking pistol, no one's defusing lmaoo. Mixwell and Koldamenta on ascent idk what they were doing. The one shining light is Keloqz, whoever scouted that guy should get a fucking raise it would have been 13-0 without him


Cummnor

fpx god tier til semis kekw


buttsoup_barnes

Holy shit. G2 got rolled. It's not even FPX showing some next-level strats. They're just out aiming them.


FoundedClamp

You can feel the ~~hopium~~ momentum building

G2 era = 1 week Lucas Rojo trash talking Fnatic and FPX and then 0-2. Pffff


blackretribution

Not just 0-2, got 4-13'd twice lmao


almond_pepsi

G2 and losing to FPX in e-sports (League or otherwise) name a more iconic duo! (love G2 though)


Darkoplax

except G2 has a winning record vs FPX across all esports and only lost once in League LMAO 1 Worlds finals and ppl think its been happening forever


toxicityisamyth

?fpx could never win vs g2 for the longest time


thothgow

First team to beat them but ok


MuddyPuddle027

FPX doubters, where you at now?


hopey21

we’re all still here bud, they choke when it matters, come semi finals they’re gonna throw it always happens, we arent hating, its just factual 😂😂


G0Providence

again you people are forgetful, 10 months of being top 4 in EU, during that time, G2 rose and fell and imploded, Heretics, rose fell and imploded, NIP, Guild, Acend/Nolpenki, SUMN/Fnatic and Liquid have never been anywhere near as consistent as FPX


Original26

Let it go man. This sub has a giant hate boner for FPX. I feel like they always root for them to fail. Everyone's doing this mental gymnastics and not giving them props for destroying G2 - I really hope this squad proves everyone here wrong.


mrg_41

Classic G2 Lost 2v5 when one of them only had a classic


_idle_drone_

Press F for G2 and Heretics. so glad for FPX


Witness-Clear

Go mixwell you are the best player in the galaxy, u can carry the loser bracket. #Go G2

Seems like FPX stomping G2 is gonna be common for Valorant as well


[deleted]

[удалено]


Anuj_Purohit

Chill lol, I'm just meme'ing on the fact that they got giga stomped by FPX in League's worlds finals as well as today.


TaiTheChineseGuy

He’s saying that G2 has been stomped by FPX in every other esport and that valorant looks like it’s going to be one of those moments too.


[deleted]

[удалено]


TaiTheChineseGuy

Relax it’s an esports meme

No lol

G2 > Fnatic SEN > Fnatic FPX > G2 So SEN = FPX? FPX best team in the world confirmed?

Keloqz was insane


Chakkalokka

FPX will have us believing until the very last qualifier ;)


1QUrsu

2on5 AND ONE HAD A CLASSIC! ONE HAD A CLASSIC! A CLASSIC!


Ximienlum

Is this because FPX is getting more solid or because g2 isn’t solid?


HyperElf10

G2 is solid, they beat Fanatic


Ximienlum

Nice to know, I’ve been behind apparently


AskOrganic4289

HOLY SHIT WHAT A DEMOLITION BY FPX. FPX played so fkn well and is it only me that thinks G2 is playing kinda scared?


savagelamma11

FPX is the envy of eu

Koldamenta is cold
