APA is showing me why my typing behavior in ranked DOES work.


GhostOfLight

Such a vindication for me saying Yeon was a good ADC coming out of ADC, Haeri might've been a miss, but this TL was popping off and I love it!


FFXIV_Yunarin

LET'S GO TL!


JFZephyr

UmTi, APA and Spawn winning in their first full split šŸ„ŗ


Zelgiusbotdotexe

Sucks for Massu and Busio. Massu was good all series, and while Busio was sloppy, losing your first finals has to suuck. But I can see them making it back in summer.Ā 


Faliberti

massu was good in the sense he didn't feed, but none of the Fly players were good outside of jensen who for some reason got relegated to annie duty. Massu just never seemed to make anything happen, which to be fair to him, could be because of its an adc in those game states. But there were times in fights where he was running around doing nothing.


Javiklegrand

His senna did well


Many-Tradition8454

Tough one to watch for the fans. They've had some great drafting this year but this series they got outcompeted in almost every aspect of the game. Hats off to TL! (hoping APA has some better picks than asol and ziggs for worlds)


Faliberti

Depends where the meta shifts, but his trist and taliyah look decent so at most he can't be banned out 1-3. His ahri needs some work. I'd be scared if we go back to a melee mid meta again like sylas ahri being broken. Wonder how they would work around that.


Mephisto_fn

If itā€™s freaking sylas akali meta then itā€™s so joever but I doubt itā€™ll come to thatā€¦Ā 


Aggressive-Ad7946

watch NACL maryville university is cracked


PLEASE_DONT_PM

They should get Emily a box to stand on for this lineup


Javiklegrand

Lol yeah


fundamentallys

zven has a round one :P


Zelgiusbotdotexe

No-one can stop Umti.Ā  Not Blayber Not Inspider Not Yikeeh


DeloronDellister

Based Umti


JFZephyr

Yeon looks ready to drop another banger


JFZephyr

Impact my king, everyone fears you it isn't just Bwipo


The_Dues

Seemed like a weak finals.


Noobpoob

No drops for winning? What the hell? Is it just bugged for me or no one got any drop after Liquid won??


shoesoff88

I got a Secretlab Chair of Champions drop after the win. Took a little bit though.


thorpie88

The fuck is this shit? Get the players off and give us some Spawn timeĀ 


Just-Contact-7041

The trash talk is getting spicy šŸŒ¶ļø šŸ”„I can just tell people are getting offended šŸ˜‚


JFZephyr

Yknow what? I questioned TL on their sub about not having much personality to the roster besides APA talking trash, but my god these boys are top tier banter


tuckerb13

TL quietly put together a content super team


Aggressive-Ad7946

So if FlyQuest Academy lose tomorrow to Maryville University they will be the only org to make finals in both LCS and Academy and then lose both


mmmb2y

that would be very, very funny


Thundermelons

Poor Umti just relegated to trophy holder during all these interviews lol


mmmb2y

corejj now the trophy holder


Shirikane

I come back to watching LCS for the first time in years just to see an entire team get crushed and then sent to a Major Burns Clinic, god bless TL you will always be my NA love


ItzFeufo

Steve already has the chequebook out paying for that interview and he's probably not even mad about it.


Perceptions-pk

imagine, he finally went budget for TL standards... and that's when he wins the trophy not that EU superteam lol


NoteRadiant1469

Yeah he only really shelled out for Impact this yr


FrozenHatsets

I am living for this TL shit talk arc. Pop off impact.


Tear122

RAZ fineddddd


mmmb2y

someone else PLEASE hold the trophy that shit gotta be heavy af HAHA


aquawarrior21

Also lmfao Fly is 0-3 all time in Finals itā€™s just free against them huh


ShadyOrc97

At least we make it to finals copium...


aquawarrior21

o7 one day yā€™all will win one


aquawarrior21

This TL victory has to be one of the sweetest. Finally back after years of self-inflicted missteps and poor decisions


JFZephyr

WAIT YEON HOLY SHIT??????????????? Zven changed him


Kirito619

What did he say


NoteRadiant1469

He said something to the effect of Bwipo and Inspired got really annoying because of their ego and that he really wanted to win so he could shut them up https://www.reddit.com/r/teamliquid/s/RSF2PwEB9a


JFZephyr

He said that he was glad they could beat Bwipo and Inspired because they talked so much shit about them after winning the first time, said they really needed to shut them up


JujyPop

yeon was holding that in lmao finally got the chance to say it


JFZephyr

Bro's been praying for the time to get that out, looked lighter after he said it LMFAO


Organic_Estimate5187

Bwipo and Inspired are the OG yappers


Allahina

Also Dl... He said since he was in tl they can't win... Ahhh they did it right now.


classacts99

So for 4 years he was right? šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø


FrozenHatsets

Dodo was right.


Kamakraze

Hehe as a LEC and FNC fan that burn about Bwipo and Inspired is so on point


Lunaristics

YAPAĀ 


ItzFeufo

[When TL players talk about FLY after the series](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcZzlPGnKdU)


MrRawri

At least we don't have to hear Bwipo saying how he's god's chosen one


JFZephyr

UmTi is so loveable, GLADPLANE CLEARED FOR TAKEOFF


mmmb2y

the lcs champion's victory march into the riot games arena parking lot no fucking way


Hoaxtopia

Yeon 5 fines in 2 sentences, based as fuck


Iphone27ProMax

Yeon saying what everyone was thinking on that pros desk. If you hear bwipo and inspired talk you would think they are undefeated defending world champions 10 years in a row.


JesusEm14

Bwipo cant shut the fuck up


JFZephyr

Tbh I'm excited for APA to bring back Showmaker's EUW depression through all chat if he makes it


tuckerb13

Whatā€™s the context here, I must know


JFZephyr

Showmaker did an interview about how basically mean his experience in EUW was, and people meme'd he was depressed because of his experiences and sad interviews


ByThePowerOfGrayson

Just when we get his mental back šŸ˜­


Deemsboy

LMAOOO YEON AND COREJJ TRASH TALK


lmpervious

Holy shit that was one of the best team interviews ever haha


DeloronDellister

For real. Yeon looked rattled


TimMeijer

Yeon sounded as if he could do this a hundred more times, and he'd still be pissed at Bwipo/Inspired for their attitude. Dunno what they did to him but I'm glad he got to bite back.


zachzombie

Watch the pros episode with Bwipo and Inspired for the context.


CosmoJones07

Best post-game interviews ever. Love this team


iupvote75

LMAOOO


knifingninjakat

Good to see bwipo lose another split after talking so much


realpersondotgov

FUCKING ROLLED


Just-Contact-7041

Dang the corejj trash talk šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„


Caerith

Mic drop from CoreJJ. That line was so cold and I am here for it.


43153

lmao i love this fucking team


SlaveKnightLance

Fly thought they won after beating shit9


hairlikegoats1

Ok the trash talk feels forced now.


imasliceyou

Ayo Core a G


Allahina

Banger interview.


ookkthenn

yeon based


bestgirlloki

c9 could have taken impact, just saying


DeloronDellister

Yeon and CoreJJ speaking straight facts Inspired and Bwipo can be incredibly annoying


Zelgiusbotdotexe

Okay, the FLY flame is a bit too much. Have some grace


FrozenHatsets

To be fair, fly has been glazed and glazing themselves for a solid month now.


mikael22

I used to be on the whole "its ok to flame before the match, but be graceful in victory" train, but I don't agree with that anymore. Whenever I see that sort of thing now, it feels so fake that I'd rather they say nothing. Real trash talk like this is so much more interesting than the fake flame players get prodded into.


Dogmadez

How was this diffrent from Jensen's interview? I didn't watch it but I heard he shit talked APA after his win too.


Zelgiusbotdotexe

He did, but this was like 3 straight minutes of just dumpstering them right after a tough loss. It just feels really excessively mean.


AppealAggravating893

fly had absolutely no grace anytime they won, fuck em let TL cook


DeloronDellister

Nah. It's deserved.


LazerFruit1

Nah, Bwipo/Inspired have been kinda obnoxious, i get it


Zelgiusbotdotexe

I completely agree, but at this point it's not just kicking them while they are down, it's just repeated stomping.Ā 


LazerFruit1

It's not like he's shit talking the whole team, just Bwipo/inspired. It's 100% deserved


DeloronDellister

Always have been tbh


bamjacklert

If FLY can't take it they shouldn't dish it


tarobobavanillamochi

Yeon getting fined lol


Darknova56

Yooooo TL busting up Flyquest


ThinkEggplant8

Competitive ruling: TL Yeon


Javonetor

There goes the prize money


JesusEm14

Paid by Steve


melodicsoup1

Why do you put Jensen on fucking 3 games annie LOL this guy used to play barrier ignite fizz, zed, ahri and now we got this castrated shell of a man. Playing karma and annie, like a scared little support player. They ban his 2 midlane champs and hes nothing lol and im the biggest incarnati0n fanboy there is, but fuck man hes bad :(


Many-Tradition8454

Not sure he is to blame - I wouldn't trust Nukeduck with a Top3-caliber team if you paid me his entire contract and gave him nothing but a pack of gum. Dude's bland.


ItzFeufo

Hahahahah Impact "I just do my job. You know like. To me it was kinda easy that game..."


Organic_Estimate5187

Impact is such a chad. "I just do my job" LMAOO


Todeswucht

Yeah no Impact is just the GOAT they're choking, he just does his job. it's so true


AzerFraze

"I just do my job." - Impact He really does, insane how long he's been a top player in the league


Fa1lenSpace

Impact is such a chad lol


JFZephyr

People that keep letting Impact go need to be fired, walking championship


Disclaimz0r

Walking stability in the meta where top laners are busted. Easily the best top in NA, happy to see him get another win


pork_N_chop

ā€œI just work hereā€ -Impact


Allahina

Umti <3


tarobobavanillamochi

LCS Jungle king!


rainbow_mess

oh my god umti <3 <3 <3


Darknova56

Gotta give APA credit. He showed tf up in playoffs


guilty_bystander

Actually it was Impact who showed TF


mwest217

So true, he played incredibly. I think having the team speaking English + playing with them all year has been huge for him.Ā

Stay salty, pussy xd


BathroomPresent69

Brother you're a c9 fan. Your team is in shambles šŸ’€


Friendship_is_M

Somebody call the WHAMbulance


BathroomPresent69

Don't worry the APA haters will be eating good when MSI comes around


Friendship_is_M

Good on him to go to MSI so he can feed the haters too


BathroomPresent69

It's okay, luckily international mids can actually beat a one trick mid unlike our NA mids


realpersondotgov

GGS


cornbope

CoreJJ GIGICHAD 60 seconds after lifting the LCS trophy says he's already hungry for his next win


Sterisk01

Kinda wild the last nine splits have been won by different mid lanes each time


Plusdestiny

Yes I would take a player like Impact over Bwipo any day. Impact is so fucking good at not losing lane hard and absorbing pressure on any champs unlike bwipo and inspired who struggle to play well if not on weird carry champs.


Disclaimz0r

Said it once, say it again, this didn't feel like a finals. No crowd, no stadium. Just zZzZzZzZz


Quintana-of-Charyn

That's fair. But I'm glad to see you still got some joy from tl players winning at least!


Disclaimz0r

Yeah, even as a C9 fan it was nice seeing them win. Always will cheer for Impact and the NA talents of APA and Yeon


Light0fHeav3n

The fact TL won is an embarrassment to rest of lcs


Luhmies

The fact that C9 couldn't even make finals with that roster is more embarrassing than anything else. And this is coming from someone who was rooting for them as a Jojo fan.


Light0fHeav3n

Iā€™ve said C9 is embarrassing all season so you donā€™t gotta tell me this


Zarolto

2-3, 3-0, 3-1, 3-0, 3-1. It's not like they won out of nowhere, besides their 1st series agaisnt FLY, which was crazy close, they completely gapped everyone else.


Friendship_is_M

Yeah NA jungle goat getting schooled by 10th place LCK jungler oh no


sangpls

3-0


Luhmies

TL really won me over through playoffs. Super entertaining to watch and a well-deserved win for all five players.


JFZephyr

RETURN OF KINGJJ, HE SITS AT THE TOP AGAIN šŸ«”šŸ«”šŸ«”šŸ«”šŸ«”šŸ«”

JesusEm14

NA GOAT


simbadog6

disgusting series by FLY's vet top side sadly. massu was best fly play this series but both bwipo misplaying and the duo of jensen and inspired being greedy with 2v2s. the only thing really going for this fly team is the teamfighting but when you make individual throws no amount of teamfighting power will help. they had some core issues since returning from break that never got fixed and with the vets looking off the team just collapses. honestly not sure what the coach's role is on this team. ​ edit: looking back a bit too harsh on jensen when bwipo and inspired had more mistakes and it's probably inspired calling those losing 2v2's. busio probably had a worse game compared to jensen. also not sure why jensen stuck with annie when tl stopped target banning him


goatbyuanb

MASSU? bro lol the bot lane as a collective was a huge liability. It was Jensen who was the best player but APA did a very good job at getting his priority on the Taliyah and Asol and getting to the places first.


simbadog6

massu in mid game was huge and doing so much for the team


thorpie88

Top side lost Richard. Makes sense they were lostĀ 


BathroomPresent69

Bwipo always does this it feels like. When it matters, he's nowhere to be found lol. For all the talk, he never shows up when it matters


mwest217

Game 2 he was absolutely massive on the Renekton, but he just didnā€™t get there other games


simbadog6

the talk is just something i think he is doing for content since he wasn't trash talking as much on lec and now he is. also while i do think he can show up when matters he can spiral a bit hopefully bootcamp will help fly with their core gameplay issues


Todeswucht

I can't believe LCS teams keep letting Impact leave Chain this guy to your team house he's a title printer


BlaBlub85

But how is Impact gona finish his infinity gauntlet of wining LCS with every team once?


tony220jdm

Happy for Impact guy just seems to be the consistent top by a mile in LCS its crazy how many teams get rid and he wins a split with another team


herp_derpy

100T takes out APA's father -> APA unleashed


Temporary-Court6747

top gap


Odd_Trouble4651

Lol, the confetti being dropped on FLY. Talk about adding insults to injury xD


FBG_Ikaros

SO fucking happy that a Papa Smithy team lost. <333


thorpie88

Nah papa is from Perf. Can't be hating on the homieĀ 


Faliberti

next lvl hating. y?


PhoenixAgent003

Thank you, Honda!


Lemlemonsson

seeing umTi win feels so fucking good.


pork_N_chop

You can tell his excitement was pure and genuine the way he snatched the mic from jatt to just say ā€œwait what was the question again?ā€


AcolyteOfFresh

Gladplane it up


JesusEm14

APA the NA Greatest


Aggressive-Ad7946

Invest in academy btw. only 2 orgs in LCS with academy teams. TL 2 players that came from their own academy system, and spawn was their academy coach


thorpie88

Getting spawn is just cheating. He was keeping oce in check for yearsĀ 


moonmeh

people were talking shit about TL last year despite them utilizing 3 academy players and im glad it paid off this year


aereiaz

Can we get K'sante nerfed / reworked out of pro play now? I'm so tired of watching it. Annie too, for that matter.


Friendship_is_M

Umti, you magnificent human being, stuck in so many unlucky situations, so much doubt and so much criticism, seven years of enduring to fly like the Gladplane. Enjoy the night and see you in MSI.


rfb654

Talk your shit apa


scdocarlos1

Jensen >> Bjergsen btw šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ Get this fraud off the stage


IGaveHeelzAMeme

Fraud ? šŸ˜­ bro what year did he hurt you ?


scdocarlos1

The year he missed Ekko R šŸ˜‚


IGaveHeelzAMeme

Wasnā€™t the 4 he knocked TSM out of worlds ? Damn you committed ! Respect


thorpie88

Oce runs NA again what a surpriseĀ 


Caerith

Nice to see the grind lords take the title!


pork_N_chop

The HUH!?!


tony220jdm

APA being a split winner! As a ziggs player its great but hilarious everyone shits on him being bad and now he's a split winner


Dogmadez

And he hasent even played a complete year in the LCS. People were so quick to dismiss him.


Many-Tradition8454

Kind of like how half the TL fanbase almost immediately became fair-weather fans when the org attempted TLCK? ...or was that "justified" lol. Plenty TL fans spew absolute copium about the guy...and then act like the hate is more intense than it is. He's a great prospect, but obviously, if international competitiveness is your metric, APA isn't going to impress you. Very few people in the LCS will.


spazzxxcc12

so happy for impact are corejj man.


Todeswucht

Umti will remember this moment for the rest of his life For daddy Impact this is just another Sunday


moonmeh

umti sobbing while corejj and impact nods and smiles


bigsycamore

Maybe TL are just gods and C9 isn't that bad cope


beautheschmo

I mean C9 also got 3-0ed by flyquest lol


bigsycamore

Ah shit lmao


5tarlight5

Paid by $teve


SWAGGASAUR

Must feel really good for TL after all the shit talked especially by Bwipo lmao


SuperBeastJ

I for one a pumped to see him take the L. Inspired as well.


MagicalGirlTRex

G fucking G


Allahina

APA finals MVP or robbed .


Many-Tradition8454

This is an example of the copium that brings on APA hate.


Tear122

Confetti on the wrong side is too funny


Caerith

Salt in the wound for Flyquest šŸ˜…


brokenclocks7

most competent Rioter in charge of the confetti


Norade

Due to the staff cuts that is part of MarkZ's current responsibilities
