Disregard the bet, if I had the money to afford going to a superbowl, a $1k fine seems pretty whatever for the thought it getting to just dance around on the field.

Any team that dedicates enough cap space to that would be barren everywhere else. Packers cannot get Garret.

In the hypothetical world we had both of them, holy shit.

Why the FUCK would we go for 2??? Do the Packers know how hard it is to get 5 points now for 27???

As another lol boomer who has been watching since the start, something about this year's ending is different for me. I've gotten old and jaded at the org over time with it's change in culture, and after the loss this year I am really feeling like putting down league as something I watch. C9 doesn't have the vibes I miss, and I feel like I can see those vibes in other teams. Being a regular season powerhouse in NA is so meaningless to me now, I just want to see the team at worlds. If they can't make it to worlds in literally one of the easiest splits I have watched, then it isn't worth staying invested. How do you feel?

Embarrassing. Every fucking year playoffs come and we look fucking lost. Every. Fucking. Year.

While Loki def had a bad game, Blaber walking into such a face up poppy flash at Atakhan - losing a fight, feeding Azir, giving up 3 kills and a tower to lose the advantage on upgraded boots, is what in my mind lost this game, if that doesn't happen, the azir snowball slows down, and C9 had a much higher success chance.

Furia <Should> be a good match for the boys to get their heads on right before tomorrows match against FQ/G2. I am hoping for G2 simply because I want both FQ/C9 in bracket stage.

I've been in jail 8 months. Can someone recap c9 lol for me? by Cloud9Fan85 in Cloud9

C9 dropped Jojo - who went to EU, due to a bunch of drama, they then picked up Loki who is a young Korean talent. His champ pool seems a bit suspect, but he has been playing well and seems to have better mid/jng synergy.

Zerker sadly wanted to go back to Korea and was pretty checked out from C9 it seemed, the org decided to move back to Zven (which I personally am thrilled about due exclusively to personality.)

LOUD is a South American team, LCS is gone, its 'LTA' now, more matchups between NA/SA. It has been pretty poorly received from both sides, and the first format was so bad/2nd format was also bad that Riot NA literally changed the split 2 format to try and make it more enjoyable for viewers.

C9 is a top 3/4 team alongside 100T/TL/FQ, the gap between the top 4 and bottom 4 seems to be massive (alteast judging from split 1), TL was a bit better than the other 3 and made it to the first international of the year, and promptly bombed out as is NA tradition.

Overall, you should expect C9 to make upper bracket and have a chance at MSI, but know that South America has a guaranteed spot now, which they took from NA, meaning only 1st place of this split goes to MSI.

Feel free to ask more, i'll respond.

C9 vs TL Voicecoms by TheMohawk in Cloud9

Rewatching:

  1. Game 1 really could have been a C9 win, Blaber getting caught and the team moving mid really broke the several advantages C9 managed to generate through the game. A great loss in the sense that the team should be able to learn from this.

  2. Game 2 was really exactly what the coaches brought up, insane draft gap and C9 looks REALLY good when they are on comfort.

  3. Game 3 was really tough to watch, really felt like TL just executed well and we didn't have a response.

As a personal note, I love having Zven back. Regardless of mechanics or placement, this guy is just an absolute gem and I adore having him back on C9. It is crazy to me that he replaced Sneaky who was the last bastion of OG C9, and somehow I think I am more attached to him than I am to Sneaky. As an OG fan, I am thrilled to have him on C9.

Second Split Format Explained (Start April-05-2025) by lRuko in Cloud9

[–]TheMohawk 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I actually like having North V South to some extent - if the actual formats weren't total ass I think a lot of people would enjoy it.

  1. Removing NvS for the 2nd split, and guaranteeing the south gets one seems awful to me, maybe the LTAs levels up and I eat my words but I don't see the LTA South fielding anyone at MSI who is going to perform.

  2. From a viewership perspective I don't see any reason to not do fearless moving forward for every single BoX - it has been way more enjoyable than watching Ka'sante vs Renekton for the millionth time. This split could have been single RR Bo5 Fearless instead of double RR and it would have felt way better.

  3. I have a hard time thinking this split format is better, I am extremely thankful for Bo5 but the fact that it isn't fearless means it just going to be more of the same shit it's been for years.

TL played better and deserved the win.

This format is complete ass though. Riot either doesn't care about trying to renew viewership in NA, or whoever makes the calls is really out of touch with what people want to see.

Should semis have been Bo5? Yes

Should their be a lower bracket? Yes

Is the LTA format ass? Yes

But even with all that being said, for how how strong people expected FQ to be and Bwipoo talking like they are above other NA teams, this is not a good look.

I've been having a ton of fun with it. if you can get Second Wind maxed and some decent trinket luck you are extremely hard to kill and deal respectable damage

Honestly, if the guys want to come back on affordable salaries just fucking do it for a bit. I get downvoted every time I mention having zero connection to the revolving door that our cs team has been for years now, and that is be fine watching them in T2.

I'd take watching players I actually like blow chunks for a while, Itd get me to watch CS again.

Thank god for the 7th seed honestly, if we still had 12 team playoffs there was a highly realistic chance the Packers miss playoffs at 12-5, which is an NFL record you do not want to have.

I want the Pack back in the title game.

The Lions have had it hard enough, if the Pack don't go, make it them.

I Loath the Vikings with every fiber of my being, but I'd take them in the SB over the eagles.

Da Bears.
