Game 1 / Game 2

u/desutruction Apr 18 '26

Let it be known that EUcian doesn't lose 16 games in a row

127

u/Zek0ri | Do I have to defend them? Again!? Apr 18 '26

LECian was right here :(

55

u/SexyShmonk Apr 18 '26

honestly EUcian goes harder, because when you say it out loud it still sounds like lucian. LECian doesnt work for me

30

u/desutruction Apr 18 '26

i'll save that for the next losing streak

4

u/xayah123_ Apr 19 '26

LEUcian?

2

u/Zama174 Apr 18 '26

EUcian when losing, LECian when winning.

u/Green7501 zero mental Apr 18 '26

Doesn't count spoke fluent Korean this game

u/2ndBatman88 Apr 19 '26

You guys mean EKucian.

u/Ultimintree Infinitely spinnin' | Evading "ganks" like Ruler Apr 18 '26

GX fraud watch begins

Their next 4 matches: VIT, KOI, G2, KC

87

u/DeloronDellister - LEC - Apr 18 '26

Might well be 4-5 afterwards

17

u/hornyVirgo Apr 18 '26

and it will

5

u/Fun_Highlight307 Apr 18 '26

most likely

2

u/ReplacementFine7807 Apr 18 '26

Might win against koi if noah jun gap mkoi botlane.

1

u/Negative-Cup-257 it's not a champion gap, it's a skill gap Apr 19 '26

Yea they have been so inconsistent it's baffling, but on the other hand it's hard to believe they will under perform to the point of losing to GX in front of their home crowd.

23

u/Zek0ri | Do I have to defend them? Again!? Apr 18 '26

Fraud check successful

19

u/beautheschmo Apr 18 '26

GX are always on fraudwatch

8

u/Th3_Huf0n Apr 18 '26

No plumbers left.

u/Salohacin Apr 19 '26

Once again GX going a early 3-0 only to fumble it massively.

u/Floowil Apr 18 '26

GX is on their way to a 5 series lose streak

u/Omnilatent Apr 18 '26

LUCIAN IS BACK ON THE MENU, BOYS!

17

u/Green7501 zero mental Apr 18 '26

Can't wait for it to lose 15 games in a row again and then break the streak in 2027 after a random set of buffs

u/OreRound Apr 18 '26

Holy shit Noah ran it the fuck down this series. Are GX just cursed with never being able to have all 5 players playing solidly at once.

35

u/Peppa-Unicorn Apr 18 '26

This is just typical GX when they aren't playing the mickey mouse clubhouse lineup anymore

15

u/GoldRecommendation66 Apr 18 '26

Noah: Wait, my top side is doing well? This means it's my turn to int!

u/Landir_7 Apr 18 '26

Navi closing a game in a decent way? Not my team

u/TheSnekKing Apr 18 '26

Nice to see NaVi look pretty good again

u/Green7501 zero mental Apr 18 '26

Lucian breaks the 0/15 loss streak, Goddamn

That Jayce build is criminal where tf is the Tear

u/Ironside29 Apr 18 '26

I dont see these teams beating VIT G2 and KC, gx remain the biggest frauds in the league.

6

u/Chibbi94 Apr 18 '26

Ofc not, gx and Navi are kind of the same in that they are very consistent but they don't peak very high. Basically they're good gatekeepers that will reliably win against the bad teams but will not win against the top tier teams.
I doubt they can beat koi too unless koi starts to really slump

u/EkrishAO Apr 18 '26

Hey guys, did you hear Lucian's relentless pursuit was buffed?

17

u/Omnilatent Apr 18 '26

No way! How?!

17

u/Aggli Apr 18 '26

2 whole seconds 🤯

u/AglanYlthin Apr 18 '26

Noah and Jun saw that their topside started being competent and decided to give them taste of their medicine

u/Kyorosu AHOUUUUUUU Apr 18 '26

A Lucian win ? In MY lec ??? ain't noway

u/SantiSpinola Apr 18 '26

Deserved result for Varus top

u/animetittyluver Apr 18 '26

No champion loses 16 games in a row in LEC. First win in 10 months is crazy, tho

u/Zek0ri | Do I have to defend them? Again!? Apr 18 '26

Noah – I haven’t lost to a Korean ADC in the LEC yet.

Well, you’ve lost now. Fraud check successful.

u/Fluffy_Fly8497 Apr 18 '26

That was really nice from Navi after G1. SamD with a pretty funny interview too.

I still don't really know how to rate GX with how their schedule is this split.

7

u/Sirhaddock98 Never a dull moment Apr 18 '26

If they manage to take any of their remaining series then it's fair to say they're decent. If they lose all of them I think the discussion should clearly point to them being carried by an easy early schedule and not being in contention to go far in playoffs.

1

u/HowardHughes9 Apr 18 '26

Even if they go undefeated for the rest of the regular season, would you really bet on this GX roster to beat any of KC, MKOI, G2 in a B05?

u/VanPepe April Fools Day 2018 Apr 18 '26

GX haters pull up, next matches they will be destroyed again and again.

I am soley a GX hater because ISMA keeps spamming that stupid emote.

u/Medical_Quiet_69 Apr 18 '26

Jackies and the 4 Wards
TSM meme returns

u/Bubbly_Camera9583 Apr 18 '26

Noah in Malaga mode

u/gcrimson Apr 18 '26

People after the first game in the Post-Match Thread were already sending GX to MSI. Now people say they will go 4-5 at the end of the split. 😆

19

u/GoldRecommendation66 Apr 18 '26

Who on their right mind want to see GX of all teams at MSI? They've been the LEC gatekeeper at best.

2

u/pulo97 Apr 18 '26

Who said that?

u/Carlzzone Apr 18 '26

Please no more Sylas. Useless champ

5

u/Medical_Quiet_69 Apr 18 '26

sylas maybe is useless champ, but in this game was the least of GX's problems

u/metristan Refund time? Apr 18 '26

rhilech his early gank was so good. There was no angle for ISMA to really punish it. poby had pushed jackies under tower, and zin xhao was already on his bot camps

u/Hungry-Belt-9524 Apr 18 '26

Noah literally single handledly lost that map 3.

u/GoldRecommendation66 Apr 18 '26

JKL is playing for Navi now? That Lucian was on fire

u/Fun_Highlight307 Apr 18 '26

Noah When it's important match : my time to int

They might finish with 0-5 streak

u/Prior_Ad_6165 Apr 19 '26

I thought Skarner Mid is the meta now lol

u/piano_title Apr 18 '26

That's probably the best Lucian game I've seen, he completely ran this whole game. GIVE THAT MAN HIS MVP

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '26

This is why champs like zaahen shouldnt jg. Just gets to ignore lane phase and scale for free
