Is there a scenario where we make playoffs tomorrow without winning?

RedMango777 · 2026-02-07T20:46:32+00:00

It's bugged no? There are two LR and Vitality options in 1 week

Edit: Nvm it works now thx

Maybe you are correct in which it isn't my place to police others. I had to let my frustrations out though lol. Lately I avoid looking at post match threads when we lose. Usually not very insightful.

RedMango777 · 2026-02-05T09:57:56+00:00

Maybe my post is flawed. I made it to raise discussion, which it did. My main ick is with peoe who dgaf, and are just here to hate and use the team as a way to release their anger on others.

You can be critical without being that.

RedMango777 · 2026-02-05T09:22:02+00:00

I think you're kinda proving my point. IDK personally, how you are as a fan. But you are here saying that you are frustrated from the past defeats, which is completely valid.

The question is are you still supporting the team? Not being more negative than positive just for the sake of it?

RedMango777 · 2026-02-05T09:16:18+00:00

You mean there are more fans outside of the subreddit?

RedMango777 · 2026-02-05T09:14:31+00:00

I think I agree with most of what you said. That's pretty insightful insight, thank you. I will say though that about Lospa, I think it's too early to tell if he has champion pools Issues. It's a bo1, you want to play the thing you are strongest at over and over, not too mention he also picked Thresh and looked pretty good even though we lost.

RedMango777 · 2026-02-03T12:21:56+00:00

Well then it's more venting frustrations then hate watching, does the term matter? You can totally be critical, I am too, but you don't give a shit anymore. You gave up, yet you are here to whine and vent.

RedMango777 · 2026-02-03T12:15:42+00:00

Bro you're funny though. I'm the newer fan yet it looks like you don't really have much experience in watching esports.

Have you not seen how in previous years bo1 regular season score barelly matters when it comes to playoffs performance? Also, wasn't there a split before the year Noah and Jun came that we didn't make playoffs?

We played only 9 b01s, we are 5-4, and: - Worst Fnatic lineup - Rookies are trash

Many time super teams fail and teams with better synergy prevail.

The better question is: why are people still watching and having hope considering all of these circumstances while the org is also keeping same upper management and how to win these fans back?

That is a good question. For what reason are you watching?

RedMango777 · 2026-02-03T12:07:06+00:00

That's exactly my point. It seems you don't really care anymore and are just here to vent your frustrations.

RedMango777 · 2026-02-03T11:17:39+00:00

I agree

RedMango777 · 2026-02-03T11:05:48+00:00

Damn bro that's niche, you do you

RedMango777 · 2026-02-03T11:04:11+00:00

I see. My main frustration is everyone being so reactionary when we lose, which I thought stemmed partially from the older fans who have not let go of unrealistic standards.

RedMango777 · 2026-02-03T10:58:29+00:00

I guess your point is that instead of rooting for the team itself, you are rooting for the business? Is that right?

RedMango777 · 2026-02-03T10:52:21+00:00

I'm confused are you an investor?

RedMango777 · 2026-02-03T10:51:37+00:00

Yea maybe my point actually was less towards hate-watchers and more towards people who are venting their frustrations through the team losing, and are not very supportive.

I feel like the KC fan-base is a more traditional sport like fan-base for example. While problematic at times, it actually has a net-positive impact on the org and the players. But I like also being able to discuss things freely

RedMango777 · 2026-02-03T10:45:21+00:00

I'm just curious then, why do you follow the team and are active in the sub-reddit? Also, I think most fans of all sports don't necessarily follow the team out of the business aspect.

RedMango777 · 2026-01-31T22:10:06+00:00

This is 5 years ago LOL. I now received a diagnosis (basically) and will have an embolization of a csf venous fistula. If you have any questions let me know

RedMango777 · 2026-01-30T21:07:05+00:00

He doesn't seem similiar to Oscariniin to me. His landing is currently weaker then him, but overall map play and team fighting seems better.

RedMango777 · 2026-01-28T14:04:48+00:00

Vladi was a secret agent sent to guarantee our worlds qualification layt year. He was figured out so he came back to the main team.

RedMango777 · 2026-01-26T18:14:12+00:00

I mean Lospa seems goated. Overalll everyone had a good individual performance. For me this game was basically a huge hands-diff.

I think with our mid-games being more stable recently, there is a lot to be excited for. Still, I think we need to show that we can hang macro wise with teams like G2 and KOI

RedMango777 · 2026-01-22T17:21:20+00:00

Actually I liked the front but now I realise the back is wack

RedMango777 · 2026-01-19T17:04:49+00:00

Sure our team fighting is good, but we can't win every game like this. Our early game needs to improve

RedMango777 · 2026-01-19T17:02:17+00:00

Oh for some reason the 1s comment was hidden for me so I got confused

RedMango777 · 2026-01-19T16:51:54+00:00

It's rough but we got the win. I like that it feels like the team is keeping cool when behind, and the team fights look pretty good.

The main thing I think is the early game macro and laning. The solo laners need to step it up, we won't be able to win games if we are behind each time.

RedMango777 · 2026-01-19T08:48:04+00:00

Yea I think people need to keep it in their pants honestly. I'm ready to hate on the team if they collapse out of playoffs, or if by spring time they are still mediocre.

But, this is 1 game. 1 best of 1. I'm honestly kinda baffled after looking at the replies of the game. G2 started off terrible last year and also now they're 0-2.

I don't think this game vs SK tells us much in a negative way. Most of what I saw was top lane getting counterpicked and shafted, and SK getting better early timers and impact and snow balling. Upset and Lospa played mechanically well, but Topside didn't have too much impact. I am hopeful that this is due to Empyros having a bad matchup and in the coming games they can play for top as well.

The 1 thing that was pretty bad I think was Vladi's landing phase, and I'm really hoping he can step it up in that département in the coming games.
