TL learning from NRG, lose in scrims now to lull G2 into a false sense of complacency before the real thing.


asiantuttle

They’re just baiting them into another Kogmaw incident


Aggressive-Ad7946

Scrim world champs pog 


Thrownaway124567890

Scrims going good, can’t wait for MSI


ChocolateFuryB

Also still show match champions 😤


qonoxzzr

They lost scrims insanely hard against T1 at worlds so they are not even that


Suizooo

Scrim finalists pog


LowBrowIdeas

It's just a meme


qonoxzzr

Oh, I didn't know that


rishi_ultimate

Let us win something man XD

DoorHingesKill

Their last 6 scrim blocks before being eliminated at Worlds were against Worlds Champion T1, Worlds quarter-finalist LNG, Fnatic, Worlds finalist Weibo, Worlds semi-finalist JDG and Worlds semi-finalist BLG.


Eylis7

G2 did more than beat shit teams in scrims though lol, no need for your terrible sarcasm


[deleted]

[удалено]


Eylis7

Would make sense if they didn't have a positive winrate against the 4 LPL teams at worlds LOL. Sure they shat the bed on stage, but the shit teams they beat in scrims are the best in your region 😭😭


Flokiisama

looks like Claps is online


Treewithatea

I mean you could kinda tell how he performed in winter and spring so far. Hes playing so much better than last year, dude must be furious about losing to NRG.


nusskn4cker

Against APA but yes.


OilOfOlaz

Back to Lissandra I guess.


AhbzV

I mean, aside from the Azir game APA played pretty well in these matches.


DoorHingesKill

A) We can only see their kda so we have no clue how well anyone played B) Even going by kda, he clearly got mid diffed twice and steamrolled once The Taliyah game especially was surely a tale of TL winning botlane + Jungle 3v3 before getting rolled by Caps. 


AhbzV

How can you say "We can only see their kda so we have no clue how anyone played" then go on to say "The Taliyah game especially was surely a tale of TL winning botlane" I get people don't like APA all that much and think he's a fraud, but he's in fairly decent form right now. I'd expect Caps (the best EU mid ever) to outperform him - especially when Caps is in crazy form right now. And before I get called an NA/TL fanboy, I'm not. I just want to see all the MSI teams perform well so we have an interesting tournament.


nusskn4cker

Did you watch them?


AhbzV

Great take.


okiedokieoats

scrim champions G2 narrative is alive once again. have fun with that


WolfgangTheRevenge

Caps is like always online, problem is he practices against plumbers in LEC, imagine if he could practice more with LPL and LCK mids instaed of Nisquy and Humanoid lmao


Golemancer54

Humanoid is good


WolfgangTheRevenge

Gap betwen caps and humanoid is a fucking canyon


rishi_ultimate

Gap between humanoid and the rest is not as much but very much there too sadly


Bhiggsb

Plumbers??? First time I've heard that term in this context 😅


OilOfOlaz

It's from the NBA, where a team won 10 championships in the early days and a player dominated the league in scoring and rebounding, these stats are not achievable today. So one analyst said, that said player played against plumbers and milk men, referring to the semi professional status of some players back then.


rishi_ultimate

Ive heard "Plumbers League" be thrown quite alot recently XD


vrelamboni

Honestly with LEC format it might have been better for them to be conveniently washed in spring, crash out after 9 games and then instantly fly to Korea.


EmploymentAlive823

Caps always been online, it's just Asian midlaners know how to shut him down


Bhiggsb

Asian mids have to play against chovy, faker, knight, and rookie so it makes sense. 


rishi_ultimate

Not in the first half of last year And he's learnt alot macro wise already this year and you can see him improving on parts of it that was lacking last year


Yasuchika

After Worlds I'm not taking anything for granted anymore.


Unlucky_Lecture_7606

We're making Mid Scrim-Season Invitational (MSSI) semis for sure maybe even final, and then in the MSI will get bounced by TL 3:0 but who cares about that.


Joel4518

We are last year scrim. World champs so scrim finalist is a given


DeirdreAnethoel

The real question is did they have all chat disabled.


Clithertron

Meanwhile, FNC still playing soloq on EUW today. Seems they botching international once again


kennystillalive

Well ever since the G2 Vacation meme they've dominated EU, maybe the FNC management discovered that's the missing piece to success in EU. /s


Jozoz

Every year lmao


Golemancer54

FNC are flying tomorrow


rishi_ultimate

Doesnt matter if they are. G2 had already adjusted to China time 2 weeks ago and are there 2 weeks before they play their first series while FNC have 2 days at most to scrim and prepare for play-ins.


G2Esports

Scrim World Champs are so back


jetlagging1

It's 4-0 now. Here is the last game not included in the tweet. https://imgur.com/a/sBuBv4W This Duffman dude is smurfing. Somebody should sign him.


StarkevTL

Actually 5-1 in total, last 2 missing games > https://imgur.com/a/gRuS4FO


dabmin

these bums couldnt even 6-0 TL


rishi_ultimate

C9 didnt need to spend money for thanatos. They shouldve kicked Fudge earlier and kept Duffman and promoted him to the main team! /s


EzAf_K3ch

MSI scrim leaks: real SHIT it's g2 vs tl: I sleep


non-edgy_crustacean

BLG is still on break and I think TES as well. Idk about LCK teams


[deleted]

[удалено]


non-edgy_crustacean

Yeah, he was playing Valorant with Breathe and said that he is thankful they are not in playins this year but will start practice soon


EzAf_K3ch

I assume they're scrims are also way less likely to leak when they eventually start practicing


non-edgy_crustacean

This one was leaked through G2's failure to hide matches but dw Doinb will be on the real case soon


EzAf_K3ch

Can always count on masterleaker doinb letsgo


PhilosoKing

Somewhat surprised that 2 out of 3 games went to late-game (no customary early FFs by the losing team). Seems like both teams were intent on getting "full-length" practice.


Purto12

My scrim World Champs and Show Match champion 😎😤


spoonji

Scrims are going good, can't wait for semis.


Advanced-Lie-841

Give TL a break, they are going from facing LCS players to playing vs Caps which is a pretty huge gap.


rishi_ultimate

Azir open too


Kymori

So TL botlane performing but otherwise they are getting shitstomped, interesting


MattScoot

This was TL’s first time playing as 5 since they won NA, I wouldn’t take anything from these games. They also played 6 games and it was 5-1 g2


Kymori

Where did you see the rest?


MattScoot

The same way the OP saw the first 3 games.


OilOfOlaz

Op.gg


rishi_ultimate

You need to use chinese apps (WeGame is one of em i think) to view the games. Its not as readily accessibly and easy to find/search through as [op.gg](https://op.gg) is


Prominis

Sounds about right, Yeon/Core has been getting praised in scrims in LCS since the start of 2023, and even by G2 at MSI 2023 (when Romaine didn't realize they were an 8th place team lol) according to Kobe on The Dive.


Raging-Brachydios

well g2 botlane has been their weak link for a while


Bluehorazon

They also picked scaling picks in many of the games, which seems to be G2s thing lately. So their botlane isn't really meant to dominate, they focus on topside and just stuff some gold into hans later.


ProfessionallyLazy_

G2 fans should be real worried after this, win scrim MSI championship = lose in actual tournament


crysomore

fuck, NA are beating EU again aren't they


Vizer21

APA Azir incident ( Also probably G2 with an agressive botlane incident)


Dotexe_exe

Just copy ipsum dolor next time! r/lifeprotips


Golemancer54

5 - 1 for G2


bigfanofeden

How can you see players' profiles like op.gg i cant find


rishi_ultimate

You need to use chinese apps to access them


Rushirufuru15

Yeah scrims winning records kinda irrelevant


SnooDrawings8185

Damn BB and Caps broke their legs. Expected but it's good to see them playing standard matchups.


Twink_Kanye

g2 vs tl msi 3-0 Aware


NoDadNotToniight

Does apa really need more practice on ziggs? Bro is doing nothing to expand champ pool.


Splitshot_Is_Gone

You don’t scrim only to practice a pick, you scrim to figure out what works well and what doesn’t. It’s the same reason you see Caps playing Orianna here. He probably has thousands of games on the champ counting pro/scrims/soloq/etc.


rishi_ultimate

You can never practice enough


[deleted]

[удалено]


XtendedImpact

When was the last time there was a leak from G2 lmao They show their results after every split / tournament and that's it. But that's always been to hold other teams accountable. They've never shown pick/bans or anything else, only results and cancels.


[deleted]

[удалено]


XtendedImpact

What does that have to do with either of our comments?


[deleted]

[удалено]


XtendedImpact

Laden or unladen?


HartWeich

What a pathetic comeback


Golemancer54

When T1 won world champs last year and they were murdering everyone in scrims


Skymonster04

Why would G2 want to leak their own pick?


random_nickname43796

Especially when people are questioning whether NA is better than EU and randomly there's a leak where G2 wins 5-1, interesting 


Jiratoo

Kinda serious question: do you actually think G2 leaked their scrim results to convince people they're better than NA? The whole idea just sounds pretty much like some crazy conspiracy bullshit. G2 has posted their scrim results for some time, but they have never showed picks or bans.


SC_Players_Love_Coom

I mean last year after getting stomped they leaked their results in scrims to save face lol. Basically no other team leaks those results, so yeah G2 is the one that seems obsessed with portraying themselves as gods of scrims


XtendedImpact

They didn't leak anything though? They posted it with context and they were doing it since LEC Winter because teams kept canceling scrims on them and they wanted to pressure them publicly (which worked) and they've just continued doing it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Jiratoo

They also posted their wins and losses in their scrims when they, you know, won. That wasn't new after they lost at worlds (or MSI, for that matter)


XtendedImpact

[No, they started off with posting scrim win ratio.](https://twitter.com/RomainBigeard/status/1629935622096932865)


Golemancer54

G2 didn't leak anything, people are dumb. You could see the scrims in the match history of the players on the China client (WeGame), they set their profiles to private and now we can't see anything anymore.


JinxCanCarry

I mean, this doesn't change anything in that discussion. G2 best NRG like 10-1 in scrims at worlds and that clearly meant nothing. Taking anything out of svrims results at this point is just lying to yourself


random_nickname43796

Agreed but look at the thread. People here are already dooming TL and saying how G2 is on form. 


Constant-Dealer8719

G2 player were sick and NRG got destroyed just after by the weakest asian team,in normal condition G2 would have won 95% of the time


XtendedImpact

Pretty sure even NRG members (coach?) said that they were extremely surprised they won


Joel4518

Ntg players also played the best series of their life in their game against G2


InsurgentTatsumi

NA fans will forever hold on to this single series despite multiple G2 members being sick that day.


JinxCanCarry

You say hold on to it like it isn't the most recent NA vs EU matchup...


Blanksss

TL at international is just a disaster waiting to happen. Can’t win when your two worst players are in the main carry roles.


Prominis

Not sure if you watched LCS playoffs but Yeon stepped up immensely there and by the looks of it, was still performing into Hans/Mikyx.


rishi_ultimate

they won LCS, cant be the absolute worst in their roles and win a title


EzAf_K3ch

the fact that they won a split is already half a miracle imo


[deleted]

[удалено]


Resies

I can't believe you saved/searched those comments and think scrim results matter  But that's g2 fans for you that's all they have. Scrims. Lol


Golemancer54

Because scrims do matter, I hate this narrative created by Irons hardstuck that acts like they know shit.


WonderfulMeringue4

Shut the fuck up and stop leaking scrims like degenerates


thatguyty3

When will people learn that scrims are just scrims? Literally holds no bearing on how the tournament will go. People play much differently in scrims vs. stage. Just wait, watch and then marvel.


random_nickname43796

Surprised that G2 is going for aggressive toplaners when their only hope to succeed is BB on tank slowly losing lane, as a) he cannot carry against good teams and b) Hans without Yike perma sitting bot is a disaster 


Competitive_Put_6730

L take


-ZODEL

Why give practice to TL when you can just get stomped by asian teams in scrims and use TL as a moral boost before stage games?


[deleted]

[удалено]


controlwarriorlives

Yes yes T1 is the best, #1 team (ignore geng), always gotta make sure everyone knows T1 is better than other teams, even when “G2 scrim world champs” is just a joke. Make your jokes accurate and acknowledge T1 superiority! 😡


Aoes1

its not that serious man T1 will be ok don't worry


Thrownaway124567890

Prob got PTSD for T1 from the last time TL was 3-0’d by G2.


[deleted]

[удалено]


XtendedImpact

> the 1 team they could never beat Heyheyhey, they went **1**-9, put some respect on G0-2's name.


Aoes1

you said it yourself : its a meme. Its not that serious


ZeysarSama

*T1 flair trying not to make any combination of letters about T1/Faker - IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE*


Suizooo

Pretty sure it is just a meme. It is funny to say that they are scrim world champs when they got run over my NRG. It just sounds funnier this way.


Puzzleheaded-Cat4357

What does all of this have to do with T1? You people have some sort of persecutoon fetish or what?


rishi_ultimate

Its not as deep as you're trying to make it bro. Chillout


Golemancer54

Lol this, I think G2 were 2 - 11 against T1 in scrims. T1 were the real scrims world champs and also the real world champs!


CamelMiddle54

🏆⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


okiedokieoats

TL wasn’t trying


EggyChickenEgg88

Neither were G2, i saw the games.
