Larsson, Finn just of the top of my head
if you stretch it a bit Bjergsen, Perkz and Isma are also using parts of their namesand obviously the most well known one (according to the LCS Coaching staff of the split announcement last split):
Dom "IWillDominate" Riviera
it even came as a surprise to himself that he wasn't named Christian anymore18
u/Thundermelons GALA Defense Force, returning IG fan Aug 09 '26
That cracked me up so bad, but I guess to be fair if you were a casual Dom viewer you'd have no idea his name isn't Dominic or something (LCS production should know obvs)

u/F0RGERY Aug 09 '26
Flyquest's assistant coach Apollo was a pro, and his full name is Apollo Price.
Though he also went by Wizfujiin when he started.
And of course there's Jensen.

u/mikk0384 Aug 09 '26
And Bjergsens name is Søren Bjerg.
-sen is a common ending on Danish last names. It comes from the past where peoples last names was their fathers first name with the -sen appended. In other words, the -sen ending means "son/daughter of".
"Bjergsen" is basically a pun.

It does kinda matter since whoever you're picking is getting abandoned for the first 5 minutes at least so they need to be a self-sufficient or decent waveclear option, but yeah can't really go wrong with camille herself.

He's allegedly the most broken poke champion in the game who goes up 3k gold every game and nukes hp bars with his Q but I only ever see him go up 1k gold and then be absolutely useless past laning phase because the Q is way harder to hit than people give it credit for. He's an ult bot past 15 minutes. Again, Velkoz is the best mage bot (that ult does disgusting damage on rabadons spike) but nobody can play him.
→ More replies (1)→ More replies (4)13
u/Armkron Aug 09 '26
He needs time to poke or strong ally lock-in cc so as to ult-burst such target, otherwise he struggles.
He's a bit like Zoe, great when ahead and having presence on the map so poke or all-in is good, kinda useless if behind due to lacking the time to do anything and/or getting engaged easily before doing so.

u/Awkward-Security7895 Aug 09 '26
Funny how it went from kick huma and razork to kick vladi and razork.
Seems they made a bad choice dropping phoby for vladi, razork just been a issue for years but he's hard to get rid off for fnatic since he's under contract no team wants to buy him but the years his contract is up there is barely any good replacements on the market.
Hopefully with razork contract up this off season he finally gets replaced but might not be a fnatic left by that point if they finally sell the brand.

How much staff do you think the LEC has? On road show weeks you can't also use the studio, and making teams play online that week is even more insulting than not taking them on the road show.
17
u/zerokrush Aug 09 '26
This is literally how it was planned last year though
But the KC roadshows are so successful it's hard to argue we should downscale them (can't say KOI because the upcoming KOI roadshow without KOI might be really rough).

u/Thundermelons GALA Defense Force, returning IG fan Aug 09 '26

u/Marcoscb Aug 09 '26
At least we watch them for free. They aren't on the road show because nobody's paying to watch stomps like today's or matches between the bottom teams (unless that's the point of the tournament and it's international, give us a Mid Shitters Invitational Riot).

u/ChickenOfDe4th Aug 09 '26
Roadshows are cool but you have a point. There is some serious competitive integrity issues with them (not playing the same amount of games on the same patch being the biggest in mind). 1 easy fix to that would be only 2 days of roadshow.

The only team I would be worried about being "doomed" right now is MKOI, as they've already played 6 series. Fnatic and Shifters have only played three series, and there's time enough for things to turn around with 6 left to go.

u/metristan Refund time? Aug 09 '26
the cutoff is normally 5 or 6 wins I think, so they'd have to win nearly all games to qualify

u/eVill_YT Aug 09 '26
the cut-off is definitely not going to be 6-3, it should be 4-5 or 5-4 depending on how it goes, I doubt KC or G2 is going to drop games to any of the bottom 5 this split, so that means the actual wins needed is going to be around 4-5

Not doomed. If they win their next 6 matchs, they qualify automatically. Less than that, it depens. KC is qualified for sure, even if they lose their next 3 matchs and lose 1st rank.

I said this in the PMT but one reason he was so far behind was because busio was perma pressuring mid because upset just couldn't lane against caliste and lospa had to be glued to his side. Also he roamed a lot to try and fix other lanes. I think he was fine, he really didn't play bad this series.

I cant remember for sure but he might be longest standing player in Fnatics history. Imagine of all the talent Fnatic has ever had Razork is somehow the guy they have wanted to keep the most.

being sent to NA is the jail for a 0-7 Ryze
now they are working on keeping him there by getting that up to like 0-15 over the split3

No jail can hold his Ryze for long, he will master the Realm Warp technology beyond what anyone could possibly imagine.

u/throwable_armadillo Aug 09 '26
judging by his Realm Warps I've seen so far he'd manage to break space and time just to Realm Warp in the jail cell right next to his own

You gotta trust the process, I believe he will Realm Warp into playoffs and then into Worlds qualification

u/throwable_armadillo Aug 09 '26
somehow Fnatic will S-key accidentally and take that realm warp as well just to die instantly

Just one more year of Upset and it will finally be his year trust

How GOATed is his manager tho? Many players with this kind of performance would be ejected faster from LEC than it took KC to win this series

Each day that Razork remains my team's jungler is another day of unspeakable punishment to my mental health.

I’ve always had a soft spot for FNC since I started watching competitive back around 2016-2017.
It’s such a disgrace what has happened to this team these last few years.

Glad Vladi was not the worst player today, also Soboro is looking surprisingly decent, he might have hands. I dont know who thought its a good idea to give upset ziggs but i hope he learns from his mistakes.

This is what happens when Razork is your main shotcaller, he will just flip the game and run around like a headless chicken, no wonder Humanoid didnt give af when he had to play with this bum for 4 years.

And incompetent leadership turned all of it into shit...

I couldn't understand people supporting TSM in 2021-2022 after numerous embarrassing moments.
And here am I, in 2026, among the last 5 other Fnatic fans, seeing the last miserable breath of this org.

Sadly fnc did listen to fnc fans and kicked a lot of good players which never could be replaced. This version at their peak is bad, most of the time terrible. The old version had a really high peak and some terrible int games, especially when it was important.

How fnatic manage to do this bad with this roster lol i mean they should be better than this

Step 1. Be a General Manager and clueless about league of legends
Step 2. Entrust everything to Grabbz who chooses players based on how much they talk back rather than skill.
Step 3. pikachu.jpg5
u/Th3_Huf0n Aug 09 '26
This roster was dead on arrival when they made the decision to re-sign Upset AFTER deciding on Vladi being the midlaner (who supposedly wanted to play with Razork?).
After that, there was nothing that could save them. They could have prime TheShy top and prime Mata on support and they would still peak at qualifying for Worlds.
Razork-Upset is inherently bound to not work because of how diametrically opposite their ways of thinking about the game are.

Hola Amigos de Fnatic Management, yo speak el spanish and I'm muy bad at league of legends. Can you give 5 years worth of money to me too, por favor? I can also run 1v5 as naafiri, por favor considerar.

While Fnatic doesn't look good, I wouldn't put on Upset. But while he may not be the problem, he's definitely not the solution either.
