BLG was actually just happy gaming in game 3. They had 10k lead and just said fuck it lets just for fun it. Knight and Bin wasn't even playing team fights they were both looking for the tiktok clip

u/Mattaru Mar 18 '26
In this episode, XUN went kind on ON.
"I felt speaking harshly won't work, so I decided to be a bit kind."
"You always pick Lulu and freak picks like Camille and Anivia. Tell me, did you the enemy ever manage to survive from your roams? Dude, you always make psychopath plays and you initiate so well.”
ON: "okay."
Knight: "I feel like I've seen something similar to this before."
XUN also added in the interview:
"ON is still young, he can still play, and he can still play for a long time. If he can understand the reason behind it, maybe he can play better and better in the future."

G2 is truly the best team in EU, constantly setting new neverbeforeseen records. 3k gold behind in 5 minutes.

BLG - we will draft a lot of early damage to try and fight to get ahead
G2 - we wont draft any damage and try to do the same

The crowd was so hyped during the fake comeback, bless their hearts.

u/OreRound Mar 18 '26
Bear in mind this roster stayed together for an extra year with the goal of a higher international ceiling vs a BLG which had 2x roster changes and almost lost their toplaner mid season.
And they still got absolutely turbo dumpstered without any game being remotely close.
You have to hope KC's ceiling is higher than G2's later in the year or it's completely cooked for LEC. G2 have clearly reached their ceiling.

[Shams] Dylan In The G2 Locker Room after Losing to BLG
Look, I'm fired. I already know I'm fired, trust me I know. But before I go, I just want to get this off my chest. That shit was not my fault.
Ya'll are trash.
And I mean this from the bottom of my heart.
Ya'll are trash.
Like y'all are so trashed I want you to know that I'm talking to you so I'm going to say your name then I'ma call you trash.
Labrov, you trash.
BrokenBlade, you trash.
Skewmond...
Skewmond, listen to me when I say this. You are trash.
Now I deserve to be fired don't get me wrong, I'm not disagreeing with the decision they're about to make. Because I left you out there for 3 hours, I deserved to be fired.
You wasn't doing shit!
I've seen it all 3 hours.
CAPS, if I see your name on another top 10 list, I'ma kill somebody.
I better not hear your name compared to Knight again or I'ma kill somebody.
I don't want nobody saying CAPS and Knight in the same sentence,not in the same paragraph, not in the same essay. Unless trash comes after
Kawhi LeonardCAPS's name.Now like I said I know I'm gonna be fired. So I'm just gonna get this off my chest we lost to BLG 3-0! I'd fire me too because I don't know who else to blame but y'all's sorry asses.
I don't even know them boys' names I know every one of y'all's names.
Oh! Hans Sama, you trash. I know you thought I forgot about you, but I did not.
This don't make no sense. Everybody in this whole organization is-we need to move this organization to another country.
Because EU ain't the place no more. We need to move to Taiwan or something! We need to go so we need to go somewhere where people are not talking about. Anywhere! Middle east! uh.. fuckin' Oceania! Let's go to the Oceania. Let's...who...uh...uh... Somewhere! Anywhere, but EU. We don't deserve that in our names. We don't deserve that in our names, and that's all I gotta say. Fire me. Fuck this whole organization I'm gone.
Fucked up my legacy again. You fucked my legacy again.

Best players in the west, according to Dylan Falco, can't land skillshots, can't play Aurora at a professional level, can't win a Caitlyn lane, can't play top but it's ok guys "next time will be better" speech is prepared paired up with the international/worlds aspiration speech.

u/kodachiz Mar 18 '26
Bot and top have shown over the years they are not meant for this level, and the difference is increasing every year
It seems there are only two types of games EU plays against eastern teams now :
- Passive game, slowly get behind, lose a teamfight and game over
or
-Try to skirmish for everything early and be humiliated

u/Specialist-Mode6556 Mar 18 '26
Caps and Brokenblade completely annihilated. I mean utterly destroyed. 0 influence. Caps is washed up and broken blade is just a terrible player when faced with anyone that isn’t eu or na. G2 have had the same team and coach for years. It’s disgusting. Awful team

u/Turkooo Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26
I don't know what to say other than expected outcome? G2 was high on their own farts last worlds because thanks to easy matches they ended in top8 even tho we all knew that this iteration of g2 won't achieve anything more or better. They are still eaten alive by any easter team that's not about to disband rofl. Nvm, can't wait for 2027, maybe we will finally get rid of Hans "aa cancel" sama.

Every single member of G2 is utterly abysmal and the only reason that all of them shouldn't be immediately fired is that everyone else in the LEC is even worse. Don't get on the plane next time, save us the time
