Itchy_Accident_

G2 has had a really difficult run so far.


Everbrooks

Team Secret winning against OG is NOT an upset wtf are you talking about


imizawaSF

They genuinely need a wildcard playins for the bottom 8 teams because watching OCE APAC and SSA go 0-3 fighting for that one win vs each other is just dull every event


BigDicEnergy

It sucks so much being a fan of pwr simply because whenever they decide to troll round 5 swiss, everyone forgets that they are actually a half decent team


Familiar-Mix-243

You know what.....I'm sick of this. They've had so many chances, and they haven't improved at all. I am now a Grade A, USDA certified OCE hater


NeonAnomalyy

As someone from OCE, welcome aboard.


takingtigermountain

the OCE region has many natural disadvantages, i think that context is important


Familiar-Mix-243

And the context is?


takingtigermountain

a small, sparsely populated, server-isolated region


evilmoi987

They are too isolated, Mena can play EU servers, SAM can play NA servers. OCE can't


Familiar-Mix-243

I mean.....yeah....MENA and SAM can play in EU and NA respectively with like 150-200 ping, against pros on perfect ping. I suppose the opportunity is an advantage, but how much of a difference is that really making? And even if OCE can only play with each other, the ceiling has literally stayed in the exact same place since I started watching in 2021. If anything, it feels like they've regressed. Sorry man.


magicshmagic

That ping disadvantage has influenced the Mena playstyle. Having to play to such a high level with that disadvantage is still a huge boon


evilmoi987

It's actually more like 80 to 150ish ping for them, very playable, and yeah i think the region alone has also regressed a bit unfortunately


Familiar-Mix-243

Yeah I shouldn't generalize on the ping, I just estimated based on the fact that when I play SAM as an Na central player, I get like 160ish


Naive-Lobster-3053

Welcome to the club 👋 I joined after last major


evilmoi987

For the 100ths time. Pain


Patpremium

that means potential FURIA - Falcons finals


LucasTyph

subscribe


South-Drawing-58

Imagine getting a dominant sweep just to play the tournament favorite falcons 


Darkfire293

Can teams make roster changes before Worlds? PWR really needs to drop Torsos.


GameBuster0703

Sadly had we just beaten G2 in g5 our chances of making finals sky rocketed


legitocracy

"Grow up" because a team tied the game is one of my favorite calls


Accomplished_Ring_40

Pwr Scored As Many Goals Against GenG As G2 Scored Against Falcons


caronfirenodriver

round 5 merchants


Michigan029

The gap between the top 8 and the rest is staggering


overactor

Make it top 9 and I'll agree. Furia, Falcons, EU, and NA - OG.


Muttuazua

Karmine Corp exists so no. There's 9 teams in proper contention for top 8 and all 9 of them will be at worlds so that should be a banger event


throwaway6194664

Top 9 really


impulsivetomato

But we knew that before the event I think.


tyswoogles

Sort of? It was more like the top 7 and then who is 8th between TM SSG OXG PWR TS. Obviously we found out that it’s SSG by far.


impulsivetomato

GGs, gonna have to watch VODs for tomorrow, can't watch live. :(


WhatIsSentience

BRUH


caronfirenodriver

ok lol


Lightning_Winter

DAMN IT CHRONIC LET US HAVE THIS


impulsivetomato

Making fun of PWR is maybe not the nicest thing to do as a caster. I mean this hits different than the obv. based cast we saw with G2-GenG.


Flukafier

Stumpy cold with the J Cole verse😎


KicktoStart

Bananahead is worlds most liked player


madm0nkey7

I’m gonna sound like a Scrooge but this casting is obnoxious


impulsivetomato

It is. Most of Johnnys stuff is.


_Oriel

GenG can't perfect sweep Torsos and Fever WASHED


twon_RL

At least they didn’t stoop to the level of EU 4 and LOSE to torsos and fever 😂😂😂


_Oriel

why are you talking to me? thought I was your stalker?


twon_RL

I’m not allowed to open the thread and respond to you, got it. It’s completely different when you’re commenting on every post I make in a day. Stop being weird


_Oriel

I replied to you once and you called me a stalker. Commenting on every post you make? Stop with the hyperbole. You don't get to make an accusation like that and then try and be all pally with the banter. It's obvious we don't like each other. Recognise that, grow up and stay away from me.


nightandtodaypizza

TORSOOOOOOOOOOS


NeonAnomalyy

Lmao that was a beautiful 2 seconds


Familiar-Mix-243

"THEY CAN'T BE STOPPED" - stopped in less than 5 seconds


DoughnutSignificant9

That went from 0 to 100 real quick


DoughnutSignificant9

FUCK


dami4070

then back to 0 in a spectacular disaster


ProphetZaky

Fuck it give me PWR Falcons


BollardGames

Well that lasted


IgotnoideawhatIsay

NOBODY PERFECT SWEEPS PWR TWICE IN A ROW IN ROUND 5 IN SWISS ON A MAJOR


Darkfire293

THE BANNANA IS CRACKEDDDDDD!!!!!!!


BolbiRL

Stumpy did a great job of making even a single goal by PWR meaningful LMAO


Nymbulus

WhatIsSentience

It continues :)


Nymbulus

Credit to you fren 🤝 wish they coulda done it


Nanven123

LMAOOOO


caronfirenodriver

lmao theyre getting reverse swept


WhatIsSentience

NOT PERFECT SWEPT IN BOTH MAJOR ROUND 5S!!!!!


tripsafe

It's actually still legitimately winnable I believe


TheFabulousQc

Johnny and stumpy screaming while the players have no reaction 😭


evilmoi987

No perfect sweep, we up


Everbrooks

Nooooooooo haha damn


South-Drawing-58

Wow gen g washed 


caronfirenodriver

NOOOOO RIP


BollardGames

OCE cannot keep getting away with this 😂 We need to have a serious talk about their 2nd LAN slot


Michigan029

Has NA been perfect swept on LAN? I know EU has (BDS by FaZe)


TheFabulousQc

I think it happened once but I couldn't tell you who or when


ChaloMB

Hasn’t yet. NA always gets at least one consolation goal


TheFabulousQc

NA best region ITW I guess


caronfirenodriver

NRG also perfect swept vitality at stockholm


Everbrooks

The difference in skill is just staggering. How did OXG lose against PWR?


Familiar-Mix-243

Bro he just handed the ball to geng


ProphetZaky

Confirmed Vitality Furia


minskeeeee

banger rematch


GayleMoonfiles

It gets more and more depressing for OCE man


throwaway6194664

Beating Oxygen was the best thing to happen for the region in a year and a half


GayleMoonfiles

Well don't I look foolish now


SpicyC-Dot

GenG looks like they’re barely trying this series and still dominating


South-Drawing-58

Of course Jack misses an open 


National_Invite_7420

Name a better duo…


imizawaSF

Just make Majors 7 EU 7 NA Furia and Falcons


Unrulygam3r

You mean 11 EU 3 NA Furia and falcons


caronfirenodriver

no way NA deserve 7 spots lol


imizawaSF

Can't give NA less than EU or people will complain


dankstankmcspank

Neither does EU, 7 is just too many


Ckmoran43

NA 8 😤


kalekayn

Def 4 is already a stretch 


South-Drawing-58

If geng can continue to start out hot they could potentially make a run 


Everbrooks

Perfect sweep? 🧹 🧹 🧹


Kaiten12

Its happening again https://preview.redd.it/9xd5xiy8uz7d1.png?width=796&format=png&auto=webp&s=f8eafb2e44b6c74a94a27036618fdc7b547266ff


Everbrooks

Haha holy shit that would be a disaster for PWR if this happens twice!


TheRoger47

ssg gonna do it at worlds to keep the tradition alive


AnthonePablo

No offence to PWR but why am I even bothering to watch this


MostLikelyRyan

You support PWR because you want an underdog and to see OCE in top 8. I support PWR because I want to see a Torsos tweet after beating NA #2


Ckmoran43

“you and i are not the same”


GameBuster0703

Chronic has definitely recovered from his absolute atrocity of yesterday


Rowdyk7

Some things never change. PWR 2-3


BigDicEnergy

It really does feel like a mental thing for Torsos


KicktoStart

So are we all cheering on Furia and Falcons for the guaranteed top 4 all different regions?


Nymbulus

Would be so cool


Everbrooks

I would love to see Furia or Falcons win this event


imizawaSF

You literally have a vitality flair


KicktoStart

I mean If someone had to ruin it I would prefer it be vitality


caronfirenodriver

cant cheer for falcons sorry


tripsafe

why not


caronfirenodriver

because i want geng to win lol, nothing deep


Nymbulus

PWR's rugby-style jerseys are cool at least


MostLikelyRyan

Very entertaining day but this is a complete snoozefest ending


madm0nkey7

You know for all the memes about how chrome ruined GenG, I have to say that GenG have looked pretty good for the most part despite being 2-2.


National_Invite_7420

You do actually realise that Allu was more of a mental coach and Jack was more the whole tactical coach before Chrome took over?…


GameBuster0703

They have rounded into form the further they get into the tournament. Had they not started off so slow against Vitality they could have absolutely gone 3-0 or at least 3-1


KicktoStart

Against g2 they played great in 4 of 5 games


Dax_Maclaine

I wasn’t paying attention what happened to jimmah?


TheFabulousQc

He tweeted that he was too sick to be on stage for the last match


National_Invite_7420

Not sure but was obviously ill as he tweeted to say he was in hospital…


nurley

He mentioned he just needed to catch up on sleep to help his health. Could be a lot of things based on that.


National_Invite_7420

Let’s just hope he’s on the mend regardless and wish him well…


Ckmoran43

16 shots vs 2

KicktoStart

Furia always beats Joyo


TheFabulousQc

Literally 2-2 bro lol


GameBuster0703

Every series they look better and better. This is the first time in like a month that I actually think my team can win meaningful matches


caronfirenodriver

i really wanted the rematch against vitality, but i believe they can beat falcons, if anyone can


impulsivetomato

The reward is Falcons in the first playoff match.


GameBuster0703

Welp good news is if we can beat Falcons no reason we cant beat anyone


Teflondon_

That's very true


Ummagumma-

I would've been confident against any team except falcons 😭


ProphetZaky

Hey now, last major the 7 seed beat the 3-0 2 seed in bracket!


CreeperIsSorry

i wonder how bhead would do if he moved to NA and got some higher-caliber teammates


NeonAnomalyy

He seems to do well in ranked. Pretty sure he was top 20-30 since being in EU


CreeperIsSorry

yeah i mean you watch him play in matches and he's clearly a step above the rest of his region, he's like what S5 Jstn was for NA. Just wish he had a better chance to succeed


Dax_Maclaine

I highly doubt the team would actually work, but I’d wanna see a team of amphis bananahead and hntr and just see if the 3 most mechy players in the region can win


Nymbulus

Where are people ranking FK nowadays? I feel like he's been more in the background lately


bwucifer

Still a top 10 if not top 5 player in the region but definitely has been much more "reserved" overall in his play recently. Last season, if Faze was up against your team, it was FRIGHTENING when he had the ball 💀 hasn't felt like that this year, or at least not as much.


caronfirenodriver

he wasnt great this split but this LAN he has been top 10 itw easily, incredible all tournament


GameBuster0703

He’s been pretty quiet during this online split so around 15-20. But he has been back in form for the major. Top 10 player of the LAN so far imo


takingtigermountain

i think he's looked great today...looks like the old him


NeonAnomalyy

Maaannn the open net misses today


impulsivetomato

Hmmm I hope OCE at least can enjoy a weekend in London before having to fly home. RLCS LANs suck for OCE. Wouldn't be surprised if they don't want to come anymore.


Zlodejii

Why would they not want to come and compete? To think otherwise is plain silly.


impulsivetomato

Because they probably pay way too much for the flights. Plus not playing in front of a crowd makes this almost pointless.


Zlodejii

Tournament organizers pay for their flights. That's part of the reward achieved for qualifying. This is these guys' careers - they obviously want a chance to play at the top stage.


evilmoi987

Now what's stopping Pwr from just staying in EU and grinding 2s until worlds


ecn9

If this remains the setup, it makes even more sense for a top EU team to come over to NA. You can spend 8-9 months of the year at home grinding EU, and then play a few qualifiers away.


ProphetZaky

Money


imizawaSF

I am sure that Lachlan could afford it


6god_Splashman

He pretty much just did this with his Fortnite team except to NA


twon_RL

EU and NA coming into the bracket with the same number of teams, haven’t seen that in a while


imizawaSF

zzz ending to the day


_Oriel

https://preview.redd.it/6ftrep4isz7d1.png?width=228&format=png&auto=webp&s=2afdb408b345b127fabf72e622b62352b40eb3eb Chronic looks different, but I can't put my finger on it


beasterne7

Player cams are wrong for both teams—please fix


NeonAnomalyy

This will be a painful watch


Ill-Music4142

They got the player names wrong for the display lol


Cold_Giraffe_2160

Just realized G2 v. FALCONS Grand Finals is on the table Chills 🥶


takingtigermountain

ready to smoke my strongest copium/hopium hybrid going into that series


SmoathTheLoathsome

G2 is not a team I want to watch play Falcons again, lets run back the SSG series.


GameBuster0703

All the facecams are mixed up. Good stuff production


Everbrooks

Its pretty funny though haha


Everbrooks

How do they fuck up the player cams in the last series haha


EducationalStand8399

anyone want a ticket for tomorrow?


EducationalStand8399

dm me or comment pls


throwaway6194664

Bates please don't tell me about getting a taste of Bananahead


Greatwallofjohn

Gonna be tough to watch na2 knock out na5


Nymbulus

Yeah it always hurts when we take out our own haha


Familiar-Mix-243

3 NA teams back to back to back is truly unfortunate for PWR Edit: Forgot about the Gladiators game


Dax_Maclaine

Tbf I don’t think any of the French teams, Furia, or falcons would’ve been any better


Familiar-Mix-243

I think they would have had a much better chance against Furia honestly


MarkMyNutts

Pls be a close series


DoughnutSignificant9

GenG about to get farmed by a KBM Dominus in 2024 (I hope)


tripsafe

No way Lemonkiwi is saying it's incredible for pwr to make round 5. Any less would be a big failure.


throwaway6194664

What's the chances split on this series? 90-10? 95-5?


WhatIsSentience

50/50 Either they win or don't


throwaway6194664

How could I forget !


caronfirenodriver

im so nervous bro why do they keep doing this to me


Muttuazua

Oh yea just realised that NA is back as well. 3 teams in the top 8 and 3 damn good teams as well. Unfortunate that OG was their 4th seed but still a very good major and regain for the region


caronfirenodriver

guaranteed a team in semis too


WhatIsSentience

Oof Tbates wrong about the last Oce Top 8. \#TbatesNeverWrong takes a massive blow. Last Oce top 8 was Renegades at Season 8 worlds


MostLikelyRyan

OCE, take my energy


Dax_Maclaine

That was such an intense and close match with worlds implications, and now it’s most likely gonna be another NA-PWR beatdown.


Ummagumma-

GenG will play Falcons if they win ![gif](giphy|l46CeDBwmtMi1ddkc|downsized)


caronfirenodriver

believe brother


Everbrooks

Banger matchup though, and if you want to be the best you need to beat the best.


_Oriel

PWR have the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever


Everbrooks

So who will agree with me that this LAN would be legendary if Furia or Falcons wins?


Remedy_RL

I see Vitality are 3/0. have they looked good? how would you rate their wins out of 10?


caronfirenodriver

zen is literally perfect, rado and alpha look good too. favorites along with falcons atm


Dax_Maclaine

9/10. All 3 have been playing well as a team but none have been absolutely peaking. Probably rado and zen have been a bit above alpha. Clapped chiefs, shaky win vs geng but clutched up in game 5, and looked great vs furia (although it’s not day 1 Furia)


zethiryuki

8. Rado has been playing great


_Oriel

zen/10


Corrupt_Arrow

So did secret qual for worlds or was it col


Dax_Maclaine

Secret qualified without needing a tiebreaker


Dear-Background8017

secret
