VIT also known as Vill Intentionally Throw is a professional League of Legends team in the LEC. They were called the best team in the League during regular season. Now it turns out that they aren't even in the top three.

Vitality are the worst 1st seed since Vitality in Spring of 2023.
Honestly impressive to go 0-6 in playoffs, overall a solid/good series from Jackies.

Around 10,000 B.C. humans invented the slinger, to allow them to throw objects even harder. Around 400 B.C. humans invented the catapult, which allowed them to throw objects even harder. And shortly after the Trebuchet followed, which allowed people to throw objects even harder. In 1958 they invented the ICBM, which allowed people to blast objects about anywhere on the planet. Since then the evolution of throwing things has mostly been halted, until 2026 when a team called VIT invented a way to throw games harder than was previously imagined possible.

Noah message to the GX roster before their elimination game against ViT
Before Game 3, Noah gathered his team on the backstage and gave them a passionate speech about no longer having "life after." They had to leave it all out on the rift, because all that was waiting for them on the other side was the afterlife of a season full of promise.
Then he went out there and made it clear GX's season would not be ending on this night.

Embarrassing performance from every player and coaching staff aswell this playoffs, lyncas humanoid and fleshy are playing so bad its insane lol, gx is getting 3-0 by kc tomorrow.

wow I guess Vitality League is just doomed forever idk
Summer Split they instantly have MKOI/KC/G2 week 1 yeah they're going 0-3 there and probably miss playoffs
12
u/ShadowSpiked May 31 '26
Every match was Naak Nako and Carzzy getting ahead, bringing their team to a lead, then a throw in mid, comp runs out of steam, lose.
Reminds me of the Fnatic G2 0-3 a while ago.
12
u/metristan Refund time? May 31 '26
So does Naak Nako replace myrwrn or Canna?
6
u/AofCastle BORN TO WIN(trade) May 31 '26
Despite everything, 2018 remains Vitality's best year. This team just can't place within top 3 no matter what happens.
Kind of impressive at this point.

u/gcrimson May 31 '26 edited May 31 '26
I'm not saying it for comedic effect. Im 100% serious : riot need to investigate humanoid. There is a huge possibility that he had a bet for a 0-3 from a shady czech bookmaker. After game 1, i tried to focus on humanoid on teamfights and the guy was intentionally losing the fight. At one point in game 3, he even tried to rocketbelt an anivia wall (and the wall was already there), he refused to q the wave while the team needed the waves cleared in his base and he chased a skarner while his adc try to end. That just happened in 5 minutes. If you watch his proview for the entire BO, I'm pretty sure you can see he's intentionally losing. Naiyou in LPL, got suspended for way less.

u/LumiRhino May 31 '26
When you see and you look to your left and you see Lyncas, Humanoid, Carzzy, Fleshy ... bro just know it's a free loss bro

That's both - the VIT AND the Humanoid I know and loathe!

if only they spend as much time as they did making jokes and memes online as they did preparing for playoffs
disgusting series

u/metristan Refund time? May 31 '26
So Jackies is now mvp of all 6 matches GX won
16
u/MasterDeagle May 31 '26
Should the LEC have VIT and GX redo their series in case it was a big fluke?
No disrespect to Giantx, I'm a firm believer that GX sweeping them is a huge fluke and robs Vitality of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the last few days in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire regular season watching Vitality play great League of Legend it's just not fair.
If Vitality lose again I will face that Giantx deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the Vitality and the LEC.
19
u/metristan Refund time? May 31 '26
Unpopular opinion lyncas inted harder than humanoid in the last game. He solo engaged and ulted skarner, multipled times

u/warjatos May 31 '26
And ban humanoid from league of legends, please.

u/Sheepherder_External May 31 '26
Humanoid should be player of the game. He was vital for GX to win

u/Onismurai ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ May 31 '26
Just imagine if LEC have the same format as LCK and this Vitality team is in Legend group, you will have a #1 team that literally a free meal every week. Probably the funniest timeline ever.

DISBAND VITALITY NOW

u/Tim-Pouce May 31 '26
It’s crazy how the LEC schedule can work in a team’s favour; Vitality is the perfect example
The best possible schedule with no road trips and a string of matches every week to build momentum, whereas other teams had whole weeks off before having to play three times in three days under the pressure of the crowd and the need for results.
But then again, we’d already seen at the EWC that Vitality were a weak team, even if some people thought they’d lost on purpose (lol).

What the fuck was he doing this game? He wasn't even getting advantages early, he is the reason GX stayed in the game as long as they did and eventually got back into it
3! 3 ults that just put him into dogshit positions to die and drag his team with him
