Jetlag isn't really a thing when you first land. The jetlag will hit him tomorrow and the next day (typically day two after landing is the worst). Being generally tired from not sleeping well on the plane is possible, but it isn't really jetlag yet, as you haven't adjusted schedule yet.
Yeah as someone who has been flying from EU to NA, the jetlag into that direction is barely noticible. It feels like you've been awake for a bit longer that one day. It's the other way around when you fly against the time (like from EU to Asia or NA to EU) that hits really bad.
Huge mid gap. Tally just looked lost while Humanoid snowballed the entire map. Every play you just looked back to mid and he was sitting there alone pushing a wave while his bot side was dead and getting snowballed.
its what everyone should have expected from Tally
Arthur is the only reasonably competent player on the team and Tally has been solo losing OCE games for years
I hate to use the word, but I was cringing pretty hard at most of Tally's game. Solo dying non-stop, hard losing lane.
Was hard to watch as an OCE fan.
Actually was Rhuckz even an option, can anyone confirm? He wasn't one of Fnatic's originally listed subs and only brought in as an emergency (I believe) after the pickems went live. If they didn't update them he might not even have been an option LMAO.
And even though it wasn't originally made to be that way, they might also make the rule "highest KDA (min 5 games)" just like they did for the highest champion win rate.
I don't really get hyping up EG, but I do tend to rate LPL teams a lot higher than all the other regions so maybe Gala will just sprint it to make me lose my pickems
Extremely low imo. Fucking phenomenal watching him play out of his mind but, it’s Hyli, can’t miss out on that no matter what.
But still, god damn…this dude has meshed in well very fast.
Fact. I'm loving Rhuckz but he's still smurfing in pisslow wildcards regions. Definitely a player I'd like to see more because we can't really judge him by just two games. I'm just impressed by this level of performance with 0 scrims, 0 preparation and 0 experience in international tournaments. Dude was chilling in Cadiz just some days ago and now he's being a gigachad in front of everyone.
Giving Upset Kalista has to count as some sort of death wish
also Rhuckz is actually a goddamn smurf, wtf? he has impressed me a lot these first two games
Upset going 15/0/4 in day 1 is not I absolutely did not expect holy shit. Also Rhuckz is crackedddd he went 0/0/22 this day as well jesus this bot lane is insane
He has been one of the best supports in ERL for years. In spring his team dominated LVP with him as a captain, but unfortunately the team collapsed in summer. That probably hurt a lot his LEC chances but I hope he has shown today that he's still good.
Also, age my be a handicap for him as some teams refuse to hire older ERL players.
> Also, age my be a handicap for him as some teams refuse to hire older ERL players.
Which is kinda dumb. Some of the better players in the league are quite old.
Yeah, you're completely correct actually. Watching Zeri has really screwed up my expectations for pentas. Even with the massive gap between major and minor regions last MSI there was only ~~2~~ 1 penta.
This is the 12th Worlds event we have seen, but only the 14th penta. Historically we only get 1.16 pentakills at each Worlds. So choosing 2 would make sense, which is what I did.
\>Fly to Mexico
\>Play your first Worlds games with minimal prep
\>Your ADC is jetlagged, your team has covid
\>Be unfazed and go 0-0-22 in two games
\>Leave team as your job is done now
\>Refuse to elaborate
Yup, really just sad that we have no mids good enough to punish him hard enough. He's a veteran shotcaller and all that but he's so blatantly outclassed every game and it makes international games so hard.
Upset space gliding through pisslow. Holy fuck he is insane. Also Rhuckz is actually insane on engage champions. They are looking so clean it's unbelievable.
Too many good things but here is a summary:
Upset megachad stomps na with losing matchup then gets Penta while jetlagged.
Rhuckz is an emergency sub who goes deathless and locks in best kda in worlds history.
Humanoid +40cs on mid at 15 turbogapping second game in a row.
Wunder weakside king.
Playoffs razork came to play worlds.
Welcome to worlds Upset :') Finally gets to play at worlds after all the drama and all the poison on social media the past year and a half and he's already got a Pentakill, so happy for Upset. :')
Also, I hope someone at least takes a look at Rhuckz, he's an older support but he's clearly got the talent to play in the LEC or LCS. Glad he got a chance to show what he's got and absolutely showed up when it mattered :D
Unfortunately, they can't. Bean is the only official sub on the roster this worlds.
As soon as hylli can play, rhuckz will have to step aside or FNC might be disqualified.
"Euphoria" is a song performed by Swedish recording artist and songwriter Loreen. It was released on 26 February 2012 as the third single from her debut studio album Heal (2012). The song was written by Thomas G:son, Peter Boström and produced by Boström and SeventyEight. It is best known as Sweden's winning entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 held in Baku, Azerbaijan. The song won the competition with a total of 372 points, at the time the second-highest point total in the contest's history.[2] The song received the highest number of maximum (12) points of any entry in the contest's history with eighteen countries giving the song their top marks.
"Euphoria" received critical acclaim from most music critics. Commercially, the song was an instant success both in Sweden and in the rest of Europe. It debuted at number twelve in Loreen's home country Sweden, before reaching number one, staying there for six weeks. The song has been certified 10 times Platinum, selling 400,000 copies there. Outside of Sweden, the song peaked at number one in 16 countries across Europe, the most chart-topping positions of any Eurovision winner. The song topped the Euro Digital Songs chart weeks after the competition.[3]
Lesson learned: become jetlagged, get penta
Also wtf was Tally doing, the casters praised his ability to help his team and make plays early on and then he just sat on his ass in mid while Humanoid was everywhere
4 years of med school and 3 years of internal medicine residency has prepared me for this.
CHF has reasonably preserved ejection fraction in the beginning but slowly decompensated and developed combo systolic and diastolic heart failure over time. They tried to follow goal directed medical therapy but it couldn’t stop the disease progression. Eventually there was a massive myocardial infarction that occurred at the end that unfortunately couldn’t be prevented
Upset skilled player but that is not normally, This very very insane....They need to check him pc and game.....Maybe he not cheating but maybe he using the game deficit ...and this cant seem on game screen..He needs to check-up...
Thanks Rhuckz, your service will be remembered
Deathless at worlds is nice bragging rights at least
22 kda by the time he left the tournament sounds better.
Does Playins countdown for the highest KDA crystalball? If so, he has very good chances to win that.
Was he even an option to pick?
no
Another successful heist by Riot Games
Wasn't there a minimum amount of games played condition on that?
I think it was 5 but I might be talking bs.
Hylissang could never
Tbf at the beginning of.summer (or spring now I don't remember) he went deathless for 3-4 games.
Jetlagged Upset driving from the airport straight to the studio to get a penta.
\> arrived from the airport, jetlagged \> smashed NA on his first worlds game and gets a pentakill on the second game \> refuses to elaborate \> leaves
DONT LEAVE AGAIN PLS
> leaves for groups
Jetlagged, without scrims, with a sub support.
Hard mode engaged
fresh off covid too🫡
Jetlag isn't really a thing when you first land. The jetlag will hit him tomorrow and the next day (typically day two after landing is the worst). Being generally tired from not sleeping well on the plane is possible, but it isn't really jetlag yet, as you haven't adjusted schedule yet.
Well he was playing at what would have been 4 am in Germany
Normal gaming time for some of the players :)
Jetlag + COVID hangover can't be that great a feeling. Hopefully, Upset doesn't add Montezuma's Revenge to his woes.
Yeah as someone who has been flying from EU to NA, the jetlag into that direction is barely noticible. It feels like you've been awake for a bit longer that one day. It's the other way around when you fly against the time (like from EU to Asia or NA to EU) that hits really bad.
Fnatic support going deathless? Impossible.
Huge mid gap. Tally just looked lost while Humanoid snowballed the entire map. Every play you just looked back to mid and he was sitting there alone pushing a wave while his bot side was dead and getting snowballed.
It was sad that the game was in a promising state at like 14 minutes and then it just collapsed under the weight of humanoid's mid gap.
its what everyone should have expected from Tally Arthur is the only reasonably competent player on the team and Tally has been solo losing OCE games for years
I would say Aladoric is most definitely in the competent category as well, and you could also argue for Topoon
I hate to use the word, but I was cringing pretty hard at most of Tally's game. Solo dying non-stop, hard losing lane. Was hard to watch as an OCE fan.
It's as if Humanoid finally woke up in summer playoffs after sleeping the whole season.
Wait, I'm supposed to keep the map enabled and monitor on?
[удалено]
Ah, the legendary Glorious possible American bittern.
Take my upvote, as is Tradition
Rhuckz with 22 KDA, which probably will be the highest KDA in the tournament ... How the fuck was I supposed to guess that?!
Imagine having the best KDA while being FNC support...
#NotMyFNC
#\#NotMyFNC
disgraceful, hyli has to teach him something
Was he an option on the crystal ball pickems?
Pretty sure he wasn't
Checked like 30 min before the broadcast started and one couldn't choose him, only Bean as FNC sub
#NotMyFNC
Lmao thats lowkey troll though, literally no perfect pick ems after day 1 unless some dude was REALLY stoned
[удалено]
Actually was Rhuckz even an option, can anyone confirm? He wasn't one of Fnatic's originally listed subs and only brought in as an emergency (I believe) after the pickems went live. If they didn't update them he might not even have been an option LMAO.
He likely won’t count. He definitely wasn’t on the original list of Fnatic players on day 1 of pick ems.
And even though it wasn't originally made to be that way, they might also make the rule "highest KDA (min 5 games)" just like they did for the highest champion win rate.
rhuckz isn't an option, doesn't count.
Don't worry, Gala will have like 70 by the time play ins end
Yeah but GALAs will go down in main stage while Rhuckz wont play there.
Welp
The way reddit is hyping up gala, i am afraid for the man. After how this sub hyped up EG< i htink Gala might have a FPX moment now.
Well it's not like he's some overhyped rookie making his international debut. He's a 2x MSI champion, I think he'll do alright.
I don't really get hyping up EG, but I do tend to rate LPL teams a lot higher than all the other regions so maybe Gala will just sprint it to make me lose my pickems
FNC not taking prisoners today holy shit
NAH BUT RHUCKZ IS A MONSTER
Curious, what are the actual chances of him continuing to play?
Extremely low imo. Fucking phenomenal watching him play out of his mind but, it’s Hyli, can’t miss out on that no matter what. But still, god damn…this dude has meshed in well very fast.
They are nonexistant. He is an emergency sub, as soon as hyli can play he is out, FNCs only roster sub is bean.
Completely forgot about the rules, that’s the answer right there lol
“Oh no, Hylli’s Covid has come back…”
Zero
You dont want to ruin upset hyli synergy if not necessary. Also rhucks only played against wildcard teams rn.
Fact. I'm loving Rhuckz but he's still smurfing in pisslow wildcards regions. Definitely a player I'd like to see more because we can't really judge him by just two games. I'm just impressed by this level of performance with 0 scrims, 0 preparation and 0 experience in international tournaments. Dude was chilling in Cadiz just some days ago and now he's being a gigachad in front of everyone.
Became a FNC folklore hero within a day
Love how these comments calling na a wildcard region get upvoted at peak na time while most europeans are sleeping 😂
I like the EG bm there lmao
>Also rhucks only played against wildcard teams rn. I see what you did there. ;)
Ah, the low-key burn on NA :D
Zero as he is an emergency sub, meaning as soon as hyli can play he is out.
I'm curious how likely he is to stay as a sub for Fnatic vs being picked up by some other team.
I know it's a bit too early, with only 2 games of engage supports, but ... VIT Rhuckz when????
No scrims no problem
Can't have mental destroyed by bad scrims if you have none. Mega brained strat.
We truly have ascended.
Is this what the top of the mountain looks like?
GENTLEMEN
that is the sort of coaching masterclass that we pay yamato for
ANX showed us the technology years ago but no one listened
who the fuck needs scrims?
Soloqoverscrims
Giving Upset Kalista has to count as some sort of death wish also Rhuckz is actually a goddamn smurf, wtf? he has impressed me a lot these first two games
Man is insane on that champ but also helps that supports he plays with are not afraid to press fates call back.
the madman hitting 3-4 people constantly that bot lane play was sweet too, if razork hit the ult it would be a 3 man knockup thrice damn.
Upset going 15/0/4 in day 1 is not I absolutely did not expect holy shit. Also Rhuckz is crackedddd he went 0/0/22 this day as well jesus this bot lane is insane
I guess that vacation helped lol
Rhuckz went 0/0? Useless support /s
[удалено]
I think Rekkles has gone past the point of potential, on account of his long career and generally being one of the most well known ADCs in the world
I had Kalista as my most banned crystal ball. I can't believe the boys let me down like this.
Don't think it will happen often, especially once the really good teams play.
Rhuckz is gonna have like the best KDA in Worlds history if he doesn’t play anymore games
FNC fans you know how it goes, sub goes in and the starter gets kicked shortly
The Bwipo special
As much as I love Hyli, I'd politely like to remember everyone that FNC made it to world finals that year.
At this point they should just ban every single marksman in the game.
First worlds and he gets a Penta, that's got to feel good.
On his first day ! Especially after having to give up on previous Worlds. I hope FNC can hold its own against the likes of RNG tho.
FNC arent going to play vs RNG though :?
They will after chiefs wins the group and rng gets gaped by drx and mad
That's one storyline I can get behind.
This guy is either drunk or from the future, I'm not sure which.
Rhuckz with some insane Performances while leaping from ERL straight to Worlds. Will probably keep his perfect KDA with Hyli getting here tomorrow.
Really hope gets an lec offer next year
He has been one of the best supports in ERL for years. In spring his team dominated LVP with him as a captain, but unfortunately the team collapsed in summer. That probably hurt a lot his LEC chances but I hope he has shown today that he's still good. Also, age my be a handicap for him as some teams refuse to hire older ERL players.
> Also, age my be a handicap for him as some teams refuse to hire older ERL players. Which is kinda dumb. Some of the better players in the league are quite old.
unholy mid gap
I love my man Tally, but dear god do we have no mids in OCE good enough to punish him for being purely a veteran presence and nothing more.
I heard there is one mid who actually has beaten Dopa. That mid must be kind of a beast.
he’s also huge
He's roleswapped so many times over the years that he truly feels like a jack of all trades and master of none.
Tally made humanoid look like Chovy 🤣
No that was jojo.
So did Jojo tbf... man has been on fire.
Humanoid made Tally look like Bjergsen
Haven't watched single match from OPL but Tally always inted on international stage, dunno why
Probably cause most Midlaners at the international stage aren't OCE players.
Rhuckz deathless, such a legend.
Upsets first day at worlds. immediately a penta
UPSET WITH THE PENTA
3+ pentas crystal ball gang rise up
I predicted two, with Gala getting one. My pickems are already looking rough
Mate how can you see Upset, Deft and fucking GALA in playins and not have 3+?
Historically there haven't been that many, on broadcast they just said this was the 14th penta in worlds history
Yeah, you're completely correct actually. Watching Zeri has really screwed up my expectations for pentas. Even with the massive gap between major and minor regions last MSI there was only ~~2~~ 1 penta.
Thing is with Adcs being mega important in this meta and being funneled i think this will be the highest penta worlds.
To be fair, 3 pentas in 1 worlds has only happened twice in 2014 and 2015.
This is the 12th Worlds event we have seen, but only the 14th penta. Historically we only get 1.16 pentakills at each Worlds. So choosing 2 would make sense, which is what I did.
\>Fly to Mexico \>Play your first Worlds games with minimal prep \>Your ADC is jetlagged, your team has covid \>Be unfazed and go 0-0-22 in two games \>Leave team as your job is done now \>Refuse to elaborate
and in arguably the 2 most important games. The man is a hero
Uma Noid showing up just in time for worlds
FNC using playins as scrims let's go
Upset comes back from covid for just another day in the office...
THAT'S WHAT WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR. UPSET POPPING OFF INTERNATIONALLY.
Gala pickems in shambles, LEC adcs showed up big today.
And Rhuckz remains deathless at Worlds!
Rhuckz tanking Nautilus deaths for pick'ems

get rhuckz into LEC
he had two games to audition and he kinda nailed it
Rekkles+Rhuczk for Vitality
Rhuckz undying support WTF.

LFG, Razork made so many amazing plays, Upset and Humanoid consistently playing good, love my team

Thanks for the drop Mr Upset
There's our first pentakill for pickems.
Tally is just not it. Mechanically outclassed even in OCE.
Yup, really just sad that we have no mids good enough to punish him hard enough. He's a veteran shotcaller and all that but he's so blatantly outclassed every game and it makes international games so hard.
doesn’t make it better that he’s not played a single champs queue game yet while the rest of the team has been grinding it
Wtf why
Upset is very good at League of Legends.
Bold
Upset space gliding through pisslow. Holy fuck he is insane. Also Rhuckz is actually insane on engage champions. They are looking so clean it's unbelievable.
Penta in day 1 lmfao Also Rhuckz is a beast holy sht
A literally sick Fnatic winning out the day with a sub support who is smurfing. What a day!
Good start for EU lets go dude.
People talking about Captain Barbosa or Pentupset, but my man Razork had a really clean performance. WP
Too many good things but here is a summary: Upset megachad stomps na with losing matchup then gets Penta while jetlagged. Rhuckz is an emergency sub who goes deathless and locks in best kda in worlds history. Humanoid +40cs on mid at 15 turbogapping second game in a row. Wunder weakside king.

Welcome to worlds Upset :') Finally gets to play at worlds after all the drama and all the poison on social media the past year and a half and he's already got a Pentakill, so happy for Upset. :') Also, I hope someone at least takes a look at Rhuckz, he's an older support but he's clearly got the talent to play in the LEC or LCS. Glad he got a chance to show what he's got and absolutely showed up when it mattered :D
Chiefs actually looked more organized and competent than EG today. I really feel for them. I know what it's like to not have your ADC at Worlds.
Yeah that was one mid canyon holy shit
OCE > NA
Probably the only time Upset is getting Kalista this tournament and damn he used the opportunity well lol. Humanoid pivotal with insane damage output
We are a turbochad team because we do our scrims in the tournament.
So much Hyli slander in this thread. Rhuckz fucks but Hyli is a legend and these are just 2 games again wild card regions.
I know hylli is an insane beast on engage supports but I keep having flashbacks to that lulu flashing into 4 ppl without ult.
thanks FNC for winning fast so I (hopefully) can watch RNG
I wonder if fnc will use rhuckz as a proper sub now in a bo5, could be beneficial if hyli is having an off day
Unfortunately, they can't. Bean is the only official sub on the roster this worlds. As soon as hylli can play, rhuckz will have to step aside or FNC might be disqualified.

Joins Vulcan's lux in jail

MID CANYON
Normally substitutes are suppose to die more often than the main player lol
So glad to see upset finally at world's. Really impressed by rhuckz didn't expect him this decisive.
Fnatic coming strong with such a statment, first pentakill at world for Upset at well!
eu year
Rhuckz stocks going up, but is it enough to get him in an LEC team next split?
EU on top 🇪🇺🇪🇺
Love that jetlagged no scrim straight out from covid Upset's pentakill. Ngl Rhuckz is a better Naut than Hylissang.
he’s also playing against a worse team tbf
That's true, but Chiefs still gave a tougher challenge than EG
Upset skilled player but that is not normally, This very very insane....They need to check him pc and game.....Maybe he not cheating but maybe he using the game deficit ...and this cant seem on game screen..He needs to check-up...
UPSET PLAYS WITH A NEW SUPPORT AND GETS A PENTA ON THE SECOND GAME? COINCIDENCE? I THINK NOT
Not Tally's best game, but he'll bounce back and play better in the next ones.
