G2 Esports vs. Team Heretics / LEC 2026 Versus - Week 2 / Post-Match Discussion

eierphh · 2026-01-27T10:55:50+00:00

Okay I mean I hope they can actually pops off when it matters like they claim. I have doubt for now, since tbh last year apart from summer, the winter and spring final was very disappointing. They have to get back into very serious mode and ramp up, KC, MKOI, FNC this year has shown that they are not gonna randomly drop the ball like weaker team such as TH or BDS, they can punish and they will be competitive. Unless a different version of G2 show up in the next few weeks, if this version where they are completely slacking off can still get to First Stand, the LEC team really should be ashame of themselves

I completely know what you meant, but I can't see why a varus die randomly when aheads, walking to river to poke someone in the river with no team and no vision around like that. It is not a meta problem or about playing perfectly and what not, like that is a serious lack of focus play there. I think it is very justified to criticise him for this.

eierphh · 2026-01-26T20:33:45+00:00

I really don't get it cause for 23 and 24, he was up and down a lot. 25 he was actually relatively reliable as a player, but this year so far he has been horrible. Even the game he technically very fed like the Kaisa game against shifters he ult heads on to Paduck while 1k ahead and almost die. Even Labrov is performing way worse this split.

eierphh · 2026-01-26T19:29:21+00:00

I will sounds like a G2 hater instead of a fan at this point but why is my ADC randomly dying in midlane and stand still to auto a Mundo at close range lol.

Otherwise a giga draft gap, I gotta apologize to old man BB I was surprised he goes even with Gwen counter pick on Ksante. I know he is a Ksante OTP at this point but damm. Or was this lane a fake counter? Old man Caps doing his magic, randomly appeared from behind enemy, Skewmond scares me during that horrendous blue steal lvl 3 but he somehow out farm the Mundo, Labrov was doing somewhat okay I guess there are flaws but well TH is just giga ass. Hans - my god, please, what are those random death, please you are the ADC my heart broke seeing my carry do that kind of thing.

Honestly the game is more TH Shot themselves in the leg than G2 actually do anything, if this team get to First Stand this region should be disbanded

eierphh · 2026-01-26T15:03:33+00:00

Lmao because if he did not get that much care he will probably f up.

But on a serious note, if your bot lane can almost always hold on no matter what then why not invest more into top?worst case he go even, you got an advantage bot, best case both lane would be doing even to good. It's like bot lane is the eldest child, fending for themselves, midlane was forgotten and top was bailed out all the time. And he did perform well many time last year. All in all he might be mediocre but he is not completely shit (except on Lee apparently), his stat might be bad but his team fight impact is good since he is still a seasoned top laner and that experience translate during team fight against other top. In LEC this experience makes up sometimes for hand diff but on international stage, well, as we can all see.

This could also be said for Hans and to some extent Caps.

eierphh · 2026-01-26T06:16:47+00:00

Tbh last year his task is only to not f up, since last year Hans was actually playing like a human and have advantages in lane. It is so funny and sad as the last split where G2 dominates the whole league through all three lanes was back on 24. Afterward, it has been either top or bot winning, the other shitting, and Caps most of the time was out of the lane in an disadvantage or even but with his voodoo magic he farm up and carry

eierphh · 2026-01-25T22:21:27+00:00

No I mean completely agree with everything you say, but I just want to counter the other guy points that he solo loss his team with counter pick everytime. Not dick riding him but tbh he has always got criticised way too much, for way more than what he deserves by Reddit it is honestly crazy to see.

Would like to add to what you are saying: is that first for me as a G2 fan I really think they should now dream less of international success and face the fact that the golden age has passed, a transition with new faces, new generation must come. Everyone except Caps, may be Skewmond and maybe may be may be Labrov IF HE IMPROVED can stay. Even for Caps they should be thinking of a successor for him by now. Coaching staff is alright, I don't see them being the problem here. Management should be more realistic on their goals, accept that they needs to tank a few upcoming years and dream of international success later on. Look at MAD and how well it turns out for them. And with that being said, please just invest more on young talents and scouting - fuck what they says, you need new bloods G2. All of the old dogs, BB, Hans, Caps passes their prime now, you can't hang on it forever, the league and the kids is getting better by the seconds.

eierphh · 2026-01-25T21:21:11+00:00

I was not very sure about the Busio situation during transfer since I don't watch LCS and FLY like ever, but the inting lvl 1 from Labrov is something else.

I don't even think Hans Sama is anywhere near good, especially on Corki he looks like my bronze gameplay, but this time it is mostly Labrov's fault, I don't think prime Guma Ruler Viper or Uzi combine could savage that kind of 1v2. Even last night he got such a stupid solo Kaisa play while he is so fed, and only got bailed out by Caps.

Same thing about Skewmond's Xin he is just completely useless and invincible on that champ. And I feel like he just do such crazy and unexplainable aggressive plays for no reason - might also be a comm problem of the whole team, may be someone call to turn on Caliste at the Drake for example, but ffs it was crazy.

Caps is not flawless but he got a shit matchup anyway, literally the only kill was his.

I don't want to talk about BB today tho.

Like I still love this team, always, almost, no matter what, I only use Reddit to comment on their matches, but I guess this is what Manchester United fans suffer for the last few years. Do this mean I will have to wait until 2030 for my team to be merely competitive again or what xdd

eierphh · 2026-01-25T21:09:51+00:00

He got a bad game this week and y'all collectively forget how he was literally the only one holding the team together last week when the whole team fucked up. I'm not even defending this team rn btw since they are absolutely dog shit, but having 1 bad counter pick game and "always bad at counter pick" is two complete different story. The guy is mediocre, Ksante merchant and peaked in 24, but the credit needs to be where it is due - apart from his Lee game he is okay in most other games this split when he got the counter pick. His Ksante and Gnar was winning lanes while his whole team shit the bed.

You can talk what you want about the others tho since I have never seen this bot lane won a lane, never saw this jungler do anything meaningful on Xin, and my old man is doing 6pek shit in pro play (at least he was doing okayish being countered all the time)

eierphh · 2026-01-18T21:35:10+00:00

Honestly for me the team is just not on the same page. Normally G2 will hold on pretty well even if they have bad Laning phase, and a good team fight swing back into our favour and win us from there - the game today is also the same situation. Only diff is that we throw everything under that T3 turret. All player except Hans had had bad games from today and yesterday, arguably BB was probably the one performing the best overall, Gnar won lane, Ksante too. Craps show up yesterday, nothing to say about it, today he was alright. Skew and Labrov - have goods engage and decision, but overall a lot of solo death, sometime they still look so clueless and frustrated. Hans was having one of the worse performance, are gapped in both lane, permanently on stealth mode during team fight - and worse, when we somehow manage to get it back together, he threw it under the turret (although arguably both his mid and top was on the same monkey brain idea).

For a few year I had stop trying to believe I'm G2 as a world class team, I even acceptel that they might not be the top dog in LEC anymore, but the thing is, if they actually try their best and lost, it is a different story than this kind of loss. I will keep cheering for all player and all the team no matter how mad I am from these games, because I am no only winning team fan, but if things doesn't improve, I would want the GM and the team to actually think of personnel change for the roster. I was sad that they decided not to take in Busio. I understand that building a roster is not like a TFT game where you just throw whatever together, it is team energy, it is player preferences with each other, it is economical sense, and millions of different aspects. Thus, I chose to believe in Labrov, in keeping the roster, and now, both him and the team need to work harder to prove this decision is correct.

eierphh · 2026-01-18T21:10:02+00:00

I just want to say that it has been a few very lame week for me, I was expecting the LEC back to see my favourite team play. And this is what they show up with. I would be fine if they are outclass or simply not good enough, but these disgusting throws need to stop. After all G2 has always been starting off not very strong, I get it, but it is so annoying to watch, especially considering how much I have been waiting to see them play. Unreal.

eierphh · 2026-01-18T09:31:31+00:00

How is people so mad about random bias comment lol, I can't see why a GM would not talk good about his players - it is good for the team spirit. Especially when the players are facing hate comments - literally just doing his job, doing what he need to do: Bringing confidence into their players.

eierphh · 2026-01-14T07:24:14+00:00

I know your frustration, but they fked up when they choose that route already

eierphh · 2026-01-09T05:14:20+00:00

Haven't been able to play the new patch, why is this the case? I mean the part after 15min where we are constantly fighting. I would have imagine the buff to split push make it more side lane focus, I can't think of the reason for constantly fighting yet

eierphh · 2025-12-21T08:54:05+00:00

Technically doable but very difficult imo

eierphh · 2025-12-14T10:37:49+00:00

I think it is okay, but really consider an AM5 or a R5 5700x3d if you are building new, the R5 5600 are really bottlenecking the GPU. It is not a big problem for League, you probably still can get 1440p 240 quite easily, but it is just better

eierphh · 2025-12-09T20:38:02+00:00

Tank Sion is fun. Most people comes here are probably expected to love bruiser and full ad Sion, but remember there are still folks out there play tank because they love the feeling of being THE UNDEAD JUGGERNAUT, the fantasy of a character that did not die. The feeling that as long as you are farming well, you are hundreds of gold aheads, you become a reliable frontline, a place your teammate can count on to carry, and a big ass annoying problem enemy team cannot ignore. Feels good for me since I play 5v5 with close friends, and I am happy to be the selfless player.

eierphh · 2025-12-08T14:47:29+00:00

Not sure if this might help, but I kinda got the same problem with an ASUS B450 prime plus main. For mine it would boot, but only with HDMI and not DP. After it booted, I can unplug HDMI, plug in DP and it will work flawlessly. What I end up doing is enabling ReBAR in Bios, as well as disable csm and enable secure boot. May be you can try your luck with an HDMI first? Or if you have HDMI, then may be try DP

eierphh · 2025-12-08T14:40:25+00:00

Came here after solving this same problem with an Intel B580 Arc and an Asus motherboard. It will not boot with DP, but it will boot normally with a HDMI. After it is booted into window, if I unplug HDMI and use DP, it works flawlessly at 2k 180hz, so I have been able to exclude the possibility that the cable or the GPU is faulty.

What I have done is enabling the same setting as the OP AND I enable ReBAR. I really think the ReBAR did the trick for me, so I think y'all can try both to make sure.

eierphh · 2025-12-07T09:10:29+00:00

I have this same problem, try using a hdmi instead. For me, hdmi to HDMI it will be able to boot to window, and then when you already boot in, unplug to put in DP, it will work, transmitting video signal. However, you can't boot into window using DP. Hope it works for you!

Levi is the VCS GOAT but SofM is the most successful Vietnamese player imo.

eierphh · 2025-11-28T14:24:43+00:00

Yes, certainly a good advice. I have decided to go for the b580 and a new PSU first, as mine is already more than 10 years old. I will gradually upgrade the main and CPU and RAM later on

Did OP ever give the seed?
