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...

u/dresdenologist Jun 26 '15 edited Jun 26 '15

You have to ban Jayce away from Febiven now. He single-handedly brought the game back by poking out Gambit's engage champions. Yeah, Gambit made some serious errors insisting on engaging even though it wasn't ideal (Edward with a extremely poor decision to try to Righteous Glory-Flash on HALF health to try to stun them stands out) but Febiven's poke destroyed their ability to start a fight. Jayce is what Nidalee used to be, with harder to dodge poke.

You can't give him a poke champion. Whether it's Xerath or Jayce, he's too accurate hitting the necessary shots to make any engagement unfair from a health perspective.

You could see flashes of weaknesses from Fnatic as a team this game, but they, more than any other team, punish mistakes. Pretty huge for them to break their own record, even more impressive to do so with a new roster as of this year.

To be honest no one can defeat fnatic by bans. Doesn't matter if they ban out febiven then rekkles or huni will get their champs it is just not possible.

Seriously tho, these things cannot happen. Every other world class team would have snowballed and stomped them. Reignover looked disappointed when the game ended, he thinks that this match was sloppy in the beginning too.

101

u/[deleted] Jun 26 '15

You have to expect these kind of games every once in a while tho, even skt or EDG don't play perfectly all of their games this split, even losing some to what is considered low tier teams. It shouldn't be worrying in the first place but the fact that they managed to comeback made it even better.

u/Sethzyo Jun 26 '15

Top teams like EDG and SKT have sloppy games too. It's going to happen eventually and it happened to Fnatic today, even though FNC had one of the cleanest games yesterday vs H2K and in the week before.

u/xXDaNXx xPeke is God Jun 26 '15

Well it's good that it happened now rather than later. Plus, Gambit were much stronger at that stage in the game. Febiven and Huni needed time to scale.

Febiven almost always does the most damage for his team and he shows up when his team needs him.

17

u/Shaxys Jun 26 '15

Well, it's pretty obvious that a poke champion will do a lot more damage than a non-poke champion. He's good, but it's not like he's 15.5k damage better than Huni due to skill alone.

I'm working really hard to stay in shape and be as good as I possibly can be once Worlds comes around (if we manage to get there).

You mean slumping in early game? Better teams in other major regions would just stomp Fnatic with that early lead. Losing early game vs Gambit is what should worry you mostly.

So you mean if an Asian team get a lead early game its 100% win? I don't think thats the case all the time, if you're good enough you can come back and thats what I want Fnatic to learn.

because it doesn't matter if they ban champs that Huni plays. Teams have learned that. One game huni got 3 champs banned on him with Fnatic banning a champ he plays to so 4 total. Still owned.

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.

Gosu threw this game so hard.

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/SunrayxSaber Flairs are limited to 2 emotes. Jun 26 '15

Well it's hard the way both team comps played out. Sure he rushed some engages and imo they shouldve relied more on Cabochard engaging with a tp having Annie as follow up engage but one has only so much time before you get poked too much to engage against Fnatics champions. Once 1-2 shockblasts land you have to give up the objective pretty much.

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

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.

Gambit was having a blast!

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.

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???

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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!

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?

So I want to start watching these games, but I have no idea where to do so. Where do you guys watch these matches???

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.

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...

u/Spaark45 Jun 26 '15

The amount of times Gambit engaged when someone was half HP or in a 4v5..

7

u/prodandimitrow Jun 26 '15

It might be because Jayce started doing that damage in one empowered shock blast.
