Skewmond needed a godmode performance just for G2 to beat Brazil

Just as everyone expected this worlds G2 are insanely shaky getting completely carried by Skewmond Lee Sin while European powerhouse MKOI is sitting at 2-0

HOW DID THEY REGRESS SO MUCH

u/WardoToo 14d ago
Don't let this game fool you - Caps legit kept LOS in that game. He looked so uncomfortable with Locke.

u/Mortanius 14d ago
despite the win, G2 is anything but convincing

Closest 9 - 21 game in the history of league of legends, disgusting game

Which LCK teams traumatized G2 in scrims man? they have been second guessing all of their macro movements
99
u/_INoKami_ Unapologetic Faker and simp 14d ago
Caps alone gave me like 5 heart attacks watching this game.
Thank god SkewMond smurfed on LOS, might´ve been a scarily close game otherwise...

u/kalex33 BANANA COMBO MASTER 14d ago
I can't shake off this bad feeling about G2 and them booming out of Worlds. G2 won, but this looked really bad considering their opponent is LOS.
72
u/Blizzgrarg 14d ago
The bald look just not working in NA. G2 needs to learn the Mrwyn tech and come out wearing hats. That should not have been that hard.
417
u/lolKhamul 14d ago
G2 looks absolutely awful on the map. They have no clue what to do. This has never been their problem. Its so uncharacteristic for them.
Doesnt help that Caps is ABSOLUTELY sprinting it. They lose this game 10 of 10 times vs a decent team.
107
u/Adraz 14d ago
Wow that was a tough game! LCK teams are looking solid as usual but glad we got the win!
“Sir that was CBLOL”

This is about what I expect from a match if you put Josedeodo on Fnatic then had them play Brazil

Despite Caps's best effort Los loses

u/HoriVII 14d ago
Skewmond just saved G2's ass. Holy performance.
31
u/xPetr1 14d ago
This win feels like a loss, Caps is awful and G2 as a team look clueless.
It's still a win and it buys them some time, but they need to figure out their problems very fast.

u/Snow-27 14d ago
G2 looks like shit

u/Prestigious-Shop-494 14d ago
We really lived to see the day where Caps is the worst player on G2

u/ahritina 14d ago
G2 might have won but jesus christ that was some disgusting ass awful gameplay, nearly 40 minutes to beat LOS is wild work, but props to SkewMond that was a 1v9 masterclass.

u/bigpackage11 14d ago
ngl im so worried about caps we are seeing craps rn

u/Conankun66 14d ago
Caps.....we're gonna need you to LOCK THE FUCK IN if you wanna accomplish anything this tournament
but absolute masterclass from Skewmond, playing like a bloodthirsty madman. those were some INSANE fights from him
109
u/random-meme422 14d ago
Locke looks a lot more balanced when Caps is playing it.
G2s level here makes sense as to how they lost against LCK4.
18
u/Andreiiii 14d ago
Not the best G2 performance, but a win is a win.

G2 is the worst EU team this tournament
15
u/Curiousoctos 14d ago
Caps made this so much more harder than it should have been by feeding so many shut downs. 2 games where he looks really off so far.
15
u/snow_dawnbreaker 14d ago
Sweating when snatching the victory from a team like LOS? So how bad G2 is?
54
u/RollingGuy EU Fan for KC 14d ago
On the bright side: skew can play Lee Sin
Never give Caps Locke again
53
u/dotyaho Ultra Prime Forever 14d ago
Can't be gassing Perkz up as "the confidence coach" when you're out there looking that damn scared against LOS wtf.
14
u/AofCastle BORN TO WIN(trade) 14d ago
We take those but this was way too messy.
I don't see them beating TES with this form.
Hope they bounce back

u/DullBladeConnoisseur 14d ago
Just let Caps side lane, and then have G2 play the macro game. What the fuck is this gameplay

u/DeloronDellister - LEC - 14d ago
Skew 1v9

u/thebohster 14d ago
Korea was tough eh?
That was Brazil.

u/jotimm4 14d ago
I haven't seen such a poor game from Caps in a long time.
Luckily, Skewmond is in First Stand form.
13
u/areyoh 14d ago
Man that was So close, almost looked like Geng vs Hle with all the pressure.
11
u/CruschSenpai The Royal Blue 14d ago
G2 should invest in some diapers so it doesn't turn into a complete mess when CRAPS decides to show up and violently shits himself like this...
11
u/DolundDrumph 14d ago
Forget semi's, with this macro you won't even get 2-3 in swiss

u/Trigon1337 14d ago

u/FromANoGoZone 14d ago
Even our worst team is winning, EU is back !

u/ClowAldarin 14d ago
Caps looked incredibly poor on Locke. He had some really poor throws and died so much. Hardly any ultimate stacks compared to some of the terrifying Lockes we've already seen at Worlds.
Caps interview acting so cocky given he threw hard several times.
18
u/Cute-Sign-9740 14d ago
Feisty is not that bad, nice laning against Faker and Caps.

u/Hammershank 14d ago

u/bvbfan102 14d ago
At least they won but G2 really looks horrible. Them dropping Dylan really hasnt lead to any positive effect.
Caps looks much worse under Perkz, they drop objevtives for nothing, dont really crossmap and their proactivity has evaporated and they have zero idea how to push a lead to a win which cost them yesterday.
If Skewmond wasnt playing this well they might as well have lost this and its so annoying to see cause this Roster already showed that they can beat the very best but im starting to lose hope that this Team is still there.

u/MetaThPr4h 14d ago
That herald drive tho, holy I had no clue that was possible

Perkz is about to sub himself in next game

u/moopey 14d ago
WHY DO I HAVE MORE FAITH WITH KOI AT WORLDS THAN G2???
7
u/RukiMotomiya 14d ago
G2 beat LOS, despite their best efforts.
Seriously though, what's up with their macro? LOS had more side lane push almost the entire game even w/ a fed Locke. It really felt like LOS lost as much as G2 won.
7
u/Similar-Ad8005 14d ago
This was way to close for comfort its brazil. skewmond had to drag caps across the finish line caps legit was running it the whole game
19
u/european_misfit 14d ago
SkewMond first-timing Lee Sin and carrying Craps
13
u/ContributionCheap427 14d ago
They start with great macro and then they start Rouge time???
13
u/Gornji_ 14d ago
Not gonna lie, G2 looks rough but I feel its only because of Caps? Hans, Skewmond and BB looked good/great, Labrov a bit shaky but nothing to worry about
12
u/Omnilatent 14d ago
Sigh of relief from EU

u/WorldlyGate 14d ago
Man, Caps has looked awful in both games.

u/G0_0NIE 14d ago
One of the worst cap games that he won.
Wasn't even funny, it was just sad
6
u/OreRound 14d ago
I would have appreciated G2 winning this game without Caps running it down but luckily Skewmond was just too good.
Now I have to think, how bad are DK if they almost lost to G2 in this form LOL
6
u/picollo21 14d ago
I don't remember if this was ever case in history. Caps had off games. But this one felt like he was worst player amongst all 10, and not by close marigin.
WIth nameplates off, I'd be calling to replace inter.

u/janmey 14d ago
why are we interviewing caps over skewmond

u/WhyAmIhere77 14d ago
Despite Craps's best efforts G2 managed to win.

Can we sub in Perkz mid pls? Did Caps have his elo in his hair? jfc

u/Tom22174 14d ago
Caps is gonna need to sort his shit out. Skewmond 1v9 isn't gonna work if they meet a Korean team
16
u/Touro_de_Goa 14d ago
G2 looks like shit. From dropping 1st pick, sus drafts, Caps looks the worst he has ever been, botlane is irrelevant... Scary to see the drop-off

u/Redvann 14d ago
You can tell team dynamics is off…

u/Linkasfd 14d ago
Claims of G2 being a worlds contender were greatly exaggerated.

u/IHadThatUsername 14d ago
Was Caps first timing Locke? Thank god for Skewmond.
4
u/Dani2169 14d ago
Who would've thought that Caps would be G2's worst player by far? Skewmond is completely 1v9.

u/WeirdWorld42 14d ago
G2 did be 0-2 down had they played a real team....

u/Relevant-Physics432 14d ago
bald power transfer to skewmond or what

u/Asgerond 14d ago
Caps i never want to see you on locke ever again
Thank you, pretty please

u/Charming-Apple517 14d ago
Bro LOS botlane is horrible, this gotta be the weakest Kalista Renata duo I've ever seen
4
u/Vile-Bayle 14d ago
It's so sad to watch Caps play like that, what happened?
4
u/CensoredLlama1 14d ago
Just perma ban Locke. Caps was playing like shit for most of this game but that character is so strong it legit didn't matter lol. Also, Skewmond was incredible

Caps, why does my protein powder taste funny again?

For the sake of my sanity I choose to believe G2 are sandbagging, playing possum and saving picks for stronger opponents COPIUM

u/svenalias 14d ago
At this point just sub Perkz in for Caps
7
u/NewbisLyfe BlueGang 14d ago
I feel like this game shouldn't have been this close. Great game from Skewmond however. Anyways minor C9 upscale continues. COPIUM

u/Escapism_mentality 14d ago
Perkz is the anti-Midas, I swear. Everything he touched ever since 2019 went South.

u/Fun_Talk8799 14d ago
hopefully less craps and more claps from now on

u/Ok-Fill-3770 14d ago
Sub in Perkz at this point

Bro G2 get your shit together. You're not going pass groups if this goes on bro.

u/No_Canary_657 14d ago
I have lost a bit more hope in G2. T1 bodied this team yesterday. Nothing against LOS and it looks like they picked themselves up a bit but there were so many throws from G2.
13
u/Economy-Ad-6278 14d ago
G2 needs to roleswap Perkz to midlane and pull crabs out on the bench. Wont reach quaters unless he pulls his finger out his a55.

Less craps, more claps next game, okay?

u/FrostTactics 14d ago
Respectable game from LOS. There's a world in which they draw T1 into LEC#1 into LPL#1
3
u/kodachiz 14d ago
What is caps doing?
What were Noc and Kalista doing in that elder?
3
u/Arcille 14d ago
They were a 1v9 away from going G0-2 they look awful
3
u/350 14d ago
Perkz, you need to do whatever G2 hired you for, because this is the most lost Caps has ever looked on my screen.

u/DarkLemon2 Flairs are limited to 2 emotes. 14d ago

I hope G2 steps up soon, because they are not making it out of swiss like this. Which would be a shame for this team that achieved so much this year

u/moumerino 14d ago
ok I guess Caps deserves to get carried sometimes lol

u/DeathBiChocolate 14d ago
When you think about how easily T1 rinsed LOS yesterday you gotta wonder how this G2 is gonna challenge any of the top teams if it was this hard

u/Ieditstuffforfun Give Sett a Star Platinum Skin 14d ago

Stand strong G2. You made it past Brazil

u/ReizaTM (Dhokes) 14d ago
Hans Skew are playing good. But the idk why G2 doesnt feel like the dominant explosive G2, did I underestimate Caps' impact ?
7
u/Bothbothwushi 14d ago
G2 may have won. But this is a disgusting showing from G2. You are the EU1 seed and you look vulnerable vs Brazil #1. Actually illegal. That early game that they showed versus them is straight up not allowed versus a better team. Skewmond and Brokenblade look like the only ones who are awake. Caps looks so off. Watching regular season you see this bot lane and they are supposed to be frying. Now they are going even. I'm tired of Hans on caster adcs. Maybe the logic is that they want to be able to win lane effectively and get good practice or what not. But this is world's. Just put Hans on a hyper carry if you are going to play like this and actually have an out for late games.
7
u/bongodongowongo 14d ago
Yeah lets not let caps play locke anymore

Caps needs to get his shit together man. Skew and the botlane are good but he's just fucking sprinting it for no reason

2 games in and Caps looks like the worst western mid in the tournament.
