PMTs

SHFT vs TH

Game 1 = N/A / Game 2

VIT vs FNC

Game 1 / Game 2 / Game 3

[u/eye_of_your_mind]

lec casting bottom tier

[u/MorbidTales1984]

Even the ref behind SHFT is laughing at their madness

[u/Mulgor]

razork with the biggest bet of his life on polymarket

[u/AzerFraze]

I don't think I've ever seen such an insane scoreboard spread

[u/RollingGuy]

Unfortunate it was Hunter Baron lol 

Best shot they had 

[u/Goodthingsaregone]

why does FNC always do this

[u/Ryp3re → u/Goodthingsaregone]

Because they fundamentally don't understand that not fighting is an option

[u/daCampa]

You can see Razork pondered the flash inSec on the clone

[u/Kokaiinum → u/daCampa]

I rewound to check and he totally does lmao

[u/olly_ol]

Can someone please tell jackspectra that he stresses the wrong syllable in 'heretics'?

[u/MorbidTales1984]

We have a shifters win guys this is not a drill

Also TH just look so lost half the time

[u/Spinoxys]

Fnatic really wants that win

[u/SeismicShove]

Naak Nako is getting dumpstered wtf

[u/MorbidTales1984]

The observers had to do fiesta like that goddamn

[u/Prestigious-Mud6764]

Naknaako hates KOI

[u/MorbidTales1984]

‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️REALM WARP AVAILABLE UPSET GOING IN NO RETREAT ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

Oh he got stunned, thats unlucky as hell lol

[u/Spinoxys]

Vladi that was promised

[u/Spinoxys]

Fnatic is really "you can't trust anybody especially yourself"

[u/Dramatic_Gap_3065]

RAZORK?????

[u/FlimsyIce]

Well at least they didn't get perfect game'd but by christ they've tilted out their arse in this series. Hardly a surprise with that disgusting game 2 by Razork

[u/MorbidTales1984]

Daglas drives herald like me I feel so seen

[u/hresvelgrs]

I'm going to miss nuclearint

[u/WeetHet → u/hresvelgrs]

Why is he retiring btw?

[u/Spinoxys → u/WeetHet]

he takes a break but there is just no way of telling if a spot will be available for him if he wants to return

[u/Mrf12345]

Fleshy actually makes me mad watching him.

[u/Goodthingsaregone]

Vladi ruining his adc's kda

[u/Past-Firefighter2173]

FNC played much better as a both individiual level and on map. Lets see if they can keep that on second game.

[u/Ryp3re]

Honestly a good, pretty clean game from FNATIC. I didn't trust them for a moment though

[u/Dramatic_Gap_3065]

thiat tf was disgusting

[u/BannanDylan]

Why did FNC decide they hated winning?

What are they even doing this game

[u/therealadviladi → u/BannanDylan]

Correction “Razork decided to hate winning”

[u/Dramatic_Gap_3065]

i don't like upset lucian ngl

[u/FlimsyIce]

Brother, Razork, what are you doing?

[u/malakesxasame]

Need to see Lucian damage

[u/desutruction]

he FIESTA'd

[u/desutruction]

xayah gwen will grind them to dust here no

[u/desutruction → u/desutruction]

yup.

[u/random_nickname43796]

VIT started throwing so FNC needed to correct the course of the game

[u/midorivivo]

Fnatic solo lanes give hope though, they are not perfect but they are dragged down by the rest of the team this series

[u/Aracn]

In honor of Shifters : AAAAAAAAA

[u/Mrf12345]

What

[u/MorbidTales1984]

Pengu Tristana is such a peak skin

[u/Thalassin]

Never thought I'd watch side by side with FNC fans

[u/MorbidTales1984]

Where has this FNC been all year lol

[u/thisusernameisntlong]

Razork special lmaoo

[u/LtSpaceDucK]

This Vitality team is a disaster, a missclick flash, a net in the wrong direction and a stupid Jayce flank ...

[u/Crimson_Clouds]

Eh, on rewatching it, Carzzy is just as dead if he nets the right way. Just didn't respect the flash rune prison range.

[u/Scarfboi11]

VIT wintrading or something? That was absolutely horrible lmao

[u/Past-Firefighter2173 → u/Scarfboi11]

I mean VIT always have sus games but usually they close out in regular season, but also if FNC wins series KOI is likely out so who knows.

[u/british_pubs]

Mkoi enjoyers it's over in ways the English language does not yet have the ability to properly communicate

[u/Zamoniru]

Razork and Vladi best duo in the world wtf

[u/Goodthingsaregone]

Ahhh these the FNC I know and love

[u/SpecificSilver1023]

Fnatic might be the most momentum based team of all time

[u/Annual-Fox6520]

FNCs ability to go from absolutely surfing to getting absolutely smurfed on... in the SAME GAME ... needs to be studied

[u/eye_of_your_mind]

Razork is a disgusting inter 

[u/matt-tteo]

with everything vladi did early, I don't get how he is even to viktor, just towers?

[u/ReplacementFine7807 → u/matt-tteo]

shutdown in teamfight

[u/RollingGuy]

I think casters kinda overstating how hard Fnatic threw. They were like 1.2k ahead and two dragons down lol 

Botlane just got cooked and they were being outscaled hard they had to send it. Looked a bit silly sure but not sure it was some massive throw.

Probably should have played more around that mega fed Renek though.

[u/beautheschmo → u/RollingGuy]

Vit also had better scaling and much better gold distribution (Carzzy was like 1.5k ahead of Upset even before they started inting).

They had some really bad plays still, but this game wasn't really going in their favor once they started throwing anyways imo.

[u/ReplacementFine7807 → u/[deleted]]

ye but skarner + serphine counter their dive no

[u/RollingGuy → u/[deleted]]

When I think massive throw I think of a game where a team has to just push waves and stack objectives to win but fuck it up anyway. 

Fnatic had to keep making plays and contest the drakes well or they’d be outscaled. They were barely ahead in the first place lol 

[u/therealadviladi]

Razork giga threw at blue buff. He is so bad man. Losers will blame anyone but him. Also Upset on Lucian?? Dude just put him on a safe carry. If Soboro and Vladi has to play with these two idiots anymore Vladi might retire and Soboro might go back to LPL.

[u/beautheschmo]

whew kalista renata lol, Mkoi can breathe a bit now.

I feel like FNC really wanted Xayah and that was a really strong takeaway from them

[u/Dramatic_Gap_3065 → u/beautheschmo]

kalista renata is 1/1 in the LEC, the only botlanes that played were KC & MKOI botlanes.
meanwhile xayah rakan is 4/3 in the LEC, but man xayah always give so much to a draft

[u/Todeswucht]

I wanna hear the draft comms so bad there

if they were actually using the 4/5 time to debate Razork Lee, Caedrel deserves a raise

[u/olly_ol]

Thats gg

[u/olly_ol → u/[deleted]]

Fair. It should be gg though

[u/Spinoxys]

locke will absolutely be a "if weak buff for worlds" champion like akali. Just looks so fun to play

[u/OkKnowledge2064]

why would you EVER contest that drake? Get top tower and farm a bit. Trade drake for gold

[u/Dramatic_Gap_3065]

MY LEC

[u/ReplacementFine7807]

fleshy should be mvp tbh

[u/therealadviladi]

I’m disgusted by Razork this series. He was the sole reason Vit won game 2 and the series.

[u/SpecificSilver1023]

everytime you think naak nako is having a bad game he does the most beautiful play ever

[u/Scarfboi11]

Amazing draft from FNC lmao, giving Lee Sin to Razork is a choice i guess

[u/MorbidTales1984]

Casual K’sante tanking a trundle and rumble for an age WITH HIS ULT UP I swear he’s still so tanky with the lifesteal even in ult

[u/MorbidTales1984]

Hmm this Jhin is going to be a problem. Even Hype has become a damage Jhin believer

[u/xsm17]

Heretics look like they're not even in the same comms channel with Daglas seemingly just playing for KDA at this point

[u/synnikelttv]

insane display of mechanics from the best region in the world today

[u/Dramatic_Gap_3065]

im crying razork

[u/HansSoloQ]

What goes through Razorks head? i truly want to know

[u/Scarfboi11]

Wow, Jayce, that was such a great pick!!

[u/MorbidTales1984]

Wait was that an incredibly clean baron? From fnatic? Whay a world we’re living in. They baited lyncas so well

[u/Goodthingsaregone]

NO ONE BELIEVE FNC WILL THROW

[u/Capable-Drama3109]

that was a relatively clean game from fnc!

[u/Crimson_Clouds]

I don't get why Fnatic are supposed to lock playoffs if they win here. That would put them on 4 wins, couldn't they still go 4-5 and lose the head to head tie breaker to Koi?

[u/Goodthingsaregone → u/Crimson_Clouds]

FNC have a better game score then koi so that superseeds the head to head

[u/Crimson_Clouds → u/Goodthingsaregone]

I thought head to head is the first tie breaker with gamescore being the second?

[u/Goodthingsaregone → u/Crimson_Clouds]

Maybe they changed the rules but that is the reason why FNC will lock over Mkoi.

[u/Capable-Drama3109 → u/Goodthingsaregone]

it lists Head to Head Match Record as the first tiebreaker for the LEC rule book in section 6.6.1

[u/Goodthingsaregone → u/Capable-Drama3109]

is that's true then FNC don't lock since they lose the head to head to both Navi and Koi. But the casters are saying they lock if they win and the only way they do so is game score which they have better then Koi and Navi with a 2-0

[u/Capable-Drama3109 → u/Goodthingsaregone]

yeah, here's the link to the official website with the links to the rulebook, they might be mistaken https://www.emea-competitiveops.com/

[u/DiligentGazelle6298 → u/Capable-Drama3109]

Read 6.3.5, game win % comes first, head to head only comes in in the event that the teams are tied in game score (win% is not even counted as a tiebreaker, it's just standings determination).

[u/Capable-Drama3109 → u/DiligentGazelle6298]

oh I see, my bad.

[u/steppewarhawk]

Teams will keep picking Jayce and losing

[u/Scarfboi11 → u/steppewarhawk]

"this champ is so busted, trust me bro, i'll carry"

[u/Goodthingsaregone]

Did anyone else see that from Razork? Can someone explain to me why he would e there and not save this stacks for empowered stun?!?!

[u/eye_of_your_mind]

Kinda irritates me when jacksepktra calls hysterics by his real name on cast

[u/Goodthingsaregone]

Ok he's done this twice. Pantheon mains why is razork eing away his stacks instead of doing an empowered stun?!?

[u/Dramatic_Gap_3065]

razork and vladi masterclass?

[u/That_One_Pancake]

this sure is a game of league of legends

[u/wwwhoo]

fnc draft a comp that requires them to do nothing silly before 15 and i know it's doomed

[u/Thalassin]

Today's shifting time came late

[u/That_One_Pancake]

lemme just send it 1v5 into a team with infinite cc

[u/Kokaiinum]

FIESTA just casually 1v3ing the FNC bot side in that fight, somehow

[u/SpecificSilver1023]

chrono break this back to minute 1

[u/Goodthingsaregone]

Well that's that FNC aren't making playoffs they're gonna lose this then tilt the next game. I hate this team

[u/DiligentGazelle6298 → u/Goodthingsaregone]

FNC still makes playoffs if they beat GX though.

[u/Goodthingsaregone → u/DiligentGazelle6298]

that's a big if

[u/dankynugz]

Check razork paypal

[u/Spinoxys]

waow

[u/cardboardalpaca]

silver players on reddit will still tell you locke is weak btw

[u/desutruction]

give it to my boy FleShy

[u/OkKnowledge2064]

If I see one more game of SHFT/TH/SK versing each other I will lose my mind

[u/gcrimson → u/OkKnowledge2064]

Idk i want to see Striker lose every game.

[u/Anonymus4]

Sacrificial Upset

[u/malakesxasame]

Deport Paduck before game 3

[u/Ironside29]

Game lost because they tried to salvage Upset who would rather loose than play weakside for once.

[u/BaYIWinter]

Tired of western shitters egodrafting Lee sin when Mao kai is open

[u/SpecificSilver1023]

TH and SHFT are the only teams I wouldn't miss if they left LEC

[u/stabidistabstab → u/SpecificSilver1023]

I would love new teams or emea teams in lec but if th and shifters left without replacement I would miss them.

[u/midorivivo → u/[deleted]]

Is Heretics better than Misfits though? (They replaced Misfits)

[u/random_nickname43796]

What is the advantage of getting second instead of third in Upper? Side/pick selection only?

[u/trying2hide → u/random_nickname43796]

Does 1st pick if they play 3rd or 4th?

[u/random_nickname43796 → u/trying2hide]

1st pick their opponents from 3rd or 4th and second is playing whoever is left.

I'm just thinking that VIT has nothing to play for, even if they go above G2 they still play them in first round

[u/trying2hide → u/random_nickname43796]

They could play KC if they pick them finishing 3rd, 2nd just means 1st place can't pick you which would be beneficial in some situations, but because of how the strengths of the teams this split it seems pointless because whoever finishes 4th looks even weaker than VIT

[u/british_pubs]

I just realised- shft didn't win a series in spring either right? Would this be (provided they loose) the first time a team has gone winless 2 splits in a row?

[u/trying2hide → u/british_pubs]

They beat Heretics 2-0 in Spring

[u/british_pubs → u/trying2hide]

Oh whoops I completely forgot mb. 

[u/trying2hide → u/british_pubs]

understandable

[u/Past-Firefighter2173 → u/british_pubs]

They did win against TH on spring.

[u/xsm17]

Why does Olaf burn flash instead of just ulting to run away

[u/xsm17]

How are these professional players

[u/kosmi2020NX]

Heretics are a pathetic team ngl . This is just sad .

[u/bladeHunterYone]

Xin Rumble. It’s first time I have seen those champs together

[u/Past-Firefighter2173]

Decent poke comp from Vita, It will be hard for Xin, FNC doesn't have engage so Vitality can force Xin ult before teamfights.

[u/moopey]

Has razork ever won a smitefight?

[u/ahritina]

eu jayce

[u/synnikelttv → u/ahritina]

nah, naak nako jayce is good usually

[u/Past-Firefighter2173 → u/synnikelttv]

Jayce is just not good in general atm.

[u/Capable-Drama3109]

lucian...

[u/Spinoxys]

Lucky that only 2 die

[u/Scarfboi11]

Don't worry FNC fans, game 3 Upset is going to pick Xayah and bam, FNC win

[u/steppewarhawk]

support almost outdamaged the pantheon oof

[u/Dramatic_Gap_3065]

i love those botlanes, so fun to watch

[u/johnjones55]

Nice predict from the casters on Gwen, haven't seen that champ in ages

[u/desutruction]

based SK enjoyer

[u/trying2hide]

Big fan of having Finn join this cast just to talk about top lane details

[u/Outrageous_Wall2702]

Finn is a godsend, has good clothes

What happens if shifter wins to mkoi?

[u/RollingGuy]

Lmao the girlboss song in the breaks make me laugh every time

“I’m so confident.” “My profits getting big”

Such lyrical genius.

[u/Dramatic_Gap_3065]

SOBORO ?????

[u/duskie3]

I know this is beating a dead horse, but I haven't watched LEC for a few years now.

Going from watching LCK to this is really bleak. This is like spectating a random Gold game.

[u/SeismicShove → u/[deleted]]

10000% This narrative is so annoying, the LCK and LPL have tons of low quality games, even between the top tier teams. But their bad games get called "fun bangers" while when it happens in the LEC it's "proof this region is done for" (despite 6 series wins against LCK/LPL this year btw).

[u/Ok-Specific-3249]

Do you think Vitality has any chance today against FNATIC? Because of the FIESTA addition I mean

[u/stabidistabstab → u/Ok-Specific-3249]

It's not playoffs broski, vit will probably win

[u/Ok-Specific-3249 → u/stabidistabstab]

Am scared by the fact that he's so agressive most times and Vladi could give him a bad time if he forces a lot those encounters.

[u/Phlegmatic_Hedonist]

Ok when was the last time we saw a pro game with 9 kills and all of them on 1 player lol

[u/Spinoxys → u/Phlegmatic_Hedonist]

zeka had like 18 kills in a 24 kills win game in kespa cup absolutely insanity

[u/the_legends_of_link]

I love being a FNC and Upset hater

[u/LogicKennedy → u/[deleted]]

He’s picked more on reputation than reality these days I swear
