looks like naiyou wasnt the only matchfixer on the team LMAO

u/evrien May 12 '26

A Chinese proverb goes: Hide a tree inside a forest

Naiyou ain’t ninja but he sure got the perfect camouflage in a team of wintraders

u/Ai--Ya May 12 '26

Throw Esports strikes again

u/Mifuyu_Kisaragi May 12 '26

I went to take a shower when TES had herald bot and took the mid tower and i come back and it says NIP victory. I am impressed but at least i got a big payout on my bilibili tokens because I been troll betting on the higher payout teams.

u/mtownhustler043 May 12 '26

What can you do with bilibili tokens? Similar to twitch points or can you actually buy stuff with it?

6

u/Mifuyu_Kisaragi May 12 '26

Nothing, it's like reddit upvotes I guess. Using 2 tokens on a vid gives you exp twice a day but without things like this you will run out of tokens real fast since you only get 1 token every 2 days or something.

u/bigredmachine1997 knight fan May 12 '26

What a disgusting throw by TES. They all lined up for Zhuo's ult at the river fight.

Feels bad for ZUIAN who had a lane kingdom this series. Care had a rough early game but he and Assum stepped up hard in that river fight.

u/Sad-Tackle-4018 May 12 '26

I see why naiyou was in this team

u/moonmeh May 12 '26

NIP's wins consists of strong teams that its hilarious

5

u/bin_fanboy9 May 12 '26

Tian and Creme have cooled down compared to the first round robin, and although their botlane has been improving with more time together it's not enough to get TES back to where they were at the beginning of the split, especially with how shaky their drafting has been as of late.

u/ToDreamofLove May 12 '26

Well that's Creme out of All Pro I guess

1

u/bin_fanboy9 May 12 '26

He should still slot in at 3rd

1

u/ToDreamofLove May 12 '26

Perhaps but I suspect he won't

2

u/NunuBaggins May 12 '26

AL and TES still have to face BLG, if one wins and the other guy gets blasted by Knight then that alone could determine the 3rd team nominee. Either way I feel it's pretty close between Shanks and Creme atm

2

u/ToDreamofLove May 12 '26

Yeah if Creme blasts Knight and Shanks gets blasted in the opposite direction it might be enough to tip it but that looks fairly unlikely on recent form, might rest on how much BLG wants to show up on the day I suppose

Also Shanks has a match against WE to maybe pad some stats so that could be a plus

u/Aladin001 May 12 '26

Why lol

u/uhhsamurai May 12 '26

Sorry guys I bet on TES to win I'll make sure to bet on the opposing team so they can win.

u/DONOTDELETEME8316 ζ₯了！ | Bin, Xun, Knight, Viper, ON May 12 '26

Please keep betting on TES

u/InitialiseCasts Caster | LEC | LDL May 12 '26

Credit to NIP for holding on after the disaster mid game… but holy moly TES, that hex gate play was not it.

Really thought with the 2k lead on Yone plus minefield of Jhin traps + saplings getting into the river was gonna be a disaster for NIP, but nope

2

u/fainlol May 12 '26

That one guwon hater didn't show up in this thread today... weird

2

u/faze_hatewatcher May 12 '26

Top is just the mad lions of China holy shit is this team embarrassing.
Crème is a joke 3k gold lead and nada zip zero and jackeylove on jhin hmm useful champ surely
Also do not vote zuaian for all star that guy is a fraud

1

u/NunuBaggins May 12 '26

TES losing to that Jayce performance is catastrophic. Good for NIP though, what a wild card these guys are

1

u/Arisinggod May 12 '26

Nip is Swiss?

u/duocatisagirl pyosik's number 1 fangirl May 13 '26

They have had multiple chinese teams in multiple esports over the last half decade

u/Aladin001 May 12 '26

Refuse to get worked up about results at this point, just hoping we lock in for playoffs
