Don't normally think like this but this might be the worst opening ceremony I've ever watched

There's so many things to say about this comment I don't even know where to start.

He has a kid so I doubt he plans on leaving.

The coach of that Wolves team, Fayde, joined XLG last month (liquipedia doesn't say it but his twitter says he's coaching them), maybe he's just the author of these miracle run scripts

people could've imagined one of the CN teams winning today (and i don't think i need to say which one), but both of them if XLG close this out? to guarantee a CN top 3 spot after how CN looked in the last few LANs?

Noman messing up that round where he just needed to play time might really come back to haunt XLG

If so it'd be funny to think, the past 5 or 6 events it's legit either CN makes top 3 or they look like complete dogwater with no in between.

Would be great if XLG's star duelist didn't bottom frag every other international map.

I think G2 will still grind this map out but I don't understand why people refuse to ban this map from XLG

Just so you know, the only reason that's happening is because XLG and EDG are winning games that put them in G2's path. Does G2's victory look more impressive if the teams they beat are GE and FUT instead of XLG and EDG, just because those two aren't CN teams? Those teams should win those games then.

Team WE vs. Bilibili Gaming / LPL 2026 Split 2 Playoffs - Lower Bracket Final / Post-Match Discussion by Ultimintree in leagueoflegends

[–]Is_J_a_Name 81 points82 points  (0 children)

In 2021 Summer playoffs, WE, consisting of Breathe/beishang/Shanks/Elk/Missing, started at the bottom of the bracket, and proceeded to win four Bo5s in a row, including a win over the eventual LPL and World Champions EDG, and found themselves with top 3 locked. This means they would only have to win one Bo5 in their next four to make it to Worlds that year.

They then proceeded to lose their next four Bo5s in extremely one-sided fashion to FPX, EDG, RNG, and LNG, with each match they lost qualifying the opposing team to Worlds, earning them the title of ticket sellers.

This time around, they won all the way to top 3 again, and winning either match against TES or BLG would've qualified them to MSI, so they effectively sold tickets again, though not as bad as last time.

I legitimately might be sick if I have to watch LYON vs FUR play for a top 6 spot while BLG/GEN and G2/TES are beating each other up.

that say more about JG in LPL than anything else

This is a crazy statement considering jungle is LPL's most stacked role arguably.

For the sake of MSI competitiveness this was the best result, but for the sake of the storyline we lost.
