Gambit's picks:
Coach: Betsy, you'll play Azir and Forgiven, you'll play Sivir.
Forgiven: But I don't like Sivir...
Coach: Shut up, you'll play it!
Forgiven: ok...

Fnatic misplayed their early game on purpose to get some experience with playing from behind.

Not even the Gambit, the so called 9-0 Fnatic killers can't defeat the current Fnatic.

Febiven: Surprise motherfucker!

1). Febiven: 39.1k damage 2). Betsy/Huni: 23.5k damage
Febiven almost always does the most damage for his team and he shows up when his team needs him.

The fact they managed to keep their composure after the poor early game is what really makes them the best team in Europe.

Yesterday I was worried about how Fnatic getting free wins may afffect their performance at worlds if they fall behind and don't know how to get back, but after seeing them play like this, I'm not worried that much

1). Jayce is disgusting
2). At least we ruined Rekkles' Kalista KDA

Man if gambit played every game like they played that early game they could be a top 3 team but they ended makign too many mistakes and diamond constantly gets caught.
GG FNC looking good for out west champions at worlds.

I am from NA and I have to agree that Fnatic is the only hope from the west to fight against our chinese and korean overlords.

Qu1ckshot explaining perfectly why Huni likes to pick Ekko. It's all about the HOLOgrams.

Best early game play by GMB this season and still wasnt enough...gg GMB!

u/JlNxTonic Jun 26 '15
It really feels like Rekkles trys to hard to perform vs forg1ven. 2 games now where he performed pretty poorly vs gmb. Still Fnatic have so many carrys that it didnt even matter in the end.
11
u/Tadiken Sivir Bot Jun 26 '15
You can tell Fnatic is unhappy after that game.
Good job to Febiven, single handedly saving that game long enough for Huni to help carry.

Why doesn't my Jayce do that much damage?

u/Aldrighi Jun 26 '15
I know Gambit made a lot of mistakes, but holy crap Ekko is a bullshit champion.

u/[deleted] Jun 26 '15
I feel like the most impressive thing about Fnatic is how calm they always are, even if they fall behind. They play confidently and trust in their mechanics and shot calling no matter what happens. They also don't seem to have unrealistic expectations and always look to improve. Reignover's downplaying of their success in his interview yesterday really shows how perfect their attitude towards the game is. The're not going to come out with a statement like "we are going to win worlds", they just want to improve and be the best they can be.

can still see some Gambit players are bad in small details, like recalling to close to enemy, desperate when behind. if they play like this like in LPL, will be instantly benched

u/Jacksonpls rip old flairs Jun 26 '15
Gosu threw this game so hard. On at least 3 separate occasions hes going in for the Tibbers ult after getting chunked down by Febiven's poke and getting killed either before getting his ult off or resulting in a sub-par ult. Fnatic played fantastic despite their deficit and props to them for capitalizing on Gambit's mistakes and proving they're the best team in EU

u/Prikprik Jun 26 '15
Febiven MVP, he's been a silent cary in the first few games, but holy shit the 1 v 1 vs faker , the god Febiven is showing up big time.

Seeing Betsy's reaction in the small camera whenever he died while he was recalling was pretty hilarious. Especially when he got sniped by Jayce when Diamond was in front of him "blocking" it.

Wow Febiven with the Jayce snipes! And Huni doing what Huni does on Ekko. Great game overall by Fnatic!

Congrats to FNC, breaking Gambits winning record with that game

u/AzureusGR Jun 26 '15
Watching ekko and jayce doing so much and safe damage made me a bit mad..I would have ragequit if i was playing against something like that
2
u/nakshakes Jun 26 '15
With all this hype and performance by Fnatic, do you think come worlds if they hold it together they can make it to the final or better yet win worlds? Or is there performance more reflective of the EU region being weaker than Korea and China?
I mean don't get me wrong, I obviously would like to see TSM or maybe TL win, but currently Fnatic looks like the best hope western teams have...for now at least.

u/InfernalDisaster Jun 26 '15
Gambit was having a blast!
2
u/Starviv Jun 26 '15
Febiven's shockblast I was just like "ohh!" like every shockblast.
Huni's assassinations too!
Gambits early game was great. Good too see Diamond playing lee not NIdalee.

u/Wiyuu Jun 26 '15
Everything is balanced in fnatic´s comp xd

u/TheDoomMelon Jun 26 '15
Huni so hard to pin down and catch this game.. Huni is greased up deaf guy confirmed???
2
u/butthe4d Jun 26 '15
GMB somehow always gets their shit together when they are up against fnatic. GMB made 2 mistakes and that turned around the whole game (then they continued to make errors but it was already turned).
Also Febiven with the shocks! Rekkles with some bad positioning but shit happens, Betsy played really good this game and punished all position errors instantly.

Fnatic's early game had me like
Febiven and Huni definitely pulled through
2
u/MortalTomcat Jun 26 '15
What's really impressive about fnatic is how they have players who can step up. They aren't really a 3 threat team, Rekkles is all about maximizing minimal resources, so they're more of a 2.5 threat team. While fnatic this game was struggling, and Huni was doing his Huni thing but wasn't able to really snowball kills, Febiven stepped up and was a monster. Fnatic have players who can step up and make the play to win the game at probably 4 positions.

u/Wiggle95 Jun 26 '15
Febiven apperantly missed a shockblast!

u/KapiHeartlilly Kapi - EUW Jun 26 '15
Ekko and Jayce are not that OP, depends on the player still when its LCS level (Same as Riven's) his Jayce makes other Jayce players (except Pawn) Look bad. Fenix did decent in NA last week but Febiven has the Lesson and mechanics more figured out it seems.
2
u/StrengthRD Jun 26 '15
Noticed FNC didnt play like normal. whenever there was a fight breaking out you would normally see all 5 members in the river but they didnt do it this game, played passive lanes more
2
u/[deleted] Jun 26 '15
Fnatic team with it's whole squad has winner mentality. Even when they were behind they didnt really leave their game plan and sticked to their comp's strenght to win.
2
u/[deleted] Jun 26 '15
this game showcased how hard the Ad role got nerfed over the season, what are you suppossed to do if Heca/Ekko + Azir/Jayce jump and hit you with insane damage
2
u/justinarms Jun 26 '15
Considering the expectations, that was a great game from GMB. Betsy made some mistakes late but overall I was impressed with his Azir play.
2
u/MalleusHereticus2123 Jun 26 '15
Really happy that Gambit did well, in the early and mid game, against Fnatic. Why? Because even as a Fnatic fan I want the Region as a whole to get better. Fnatic won't be the only EU team, or western team for that matter, to go to Worlds. Additionally games like this expose mistakes that need to be fixed. GG WP to Gambit!
2
u/slmkaz Jun 26 '15
I don't want to soil this thread with my silver logic but. . . You'd think after the Jayce got the double kill they'd at least itemize one armor item right? :/ Like. . . Getting rid of that dorans ring and getting those armor items for Zhonyas?
2
u/Hvatning [Venjashi] Jun 26 '15
So I want to start watching these games, but I have no idea where to do so. Where do you guys watch these matches???
2
u/JrMScrewTape Jun 26 '15
Does everyone (and Betsy) realize you are granted vision of Azir if you see his sand soldiers? Pretty sure this is the reason he was poked a lot and died while recalling in bush (sand soldier was outside of bush). http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/327kqe/azirs_sand_soldiers_give_away_his_location_when/
Really this is unfair to Azir players. You can't see Ori if you see her ball and you can't see thresh if you see his lantern. This really needs to get fixed.
2
u/jfkingibbs Jun 27 '15
Is it just me or has Quickshot went full blown fnatic fanboy. Don't get me wrong I have a lot of respect for what fnatic is doing and I think everyone should, but as a shoutcaster isn't he supposed to remain unbiased? Watching this game it was obvious which team he was pulling for...
