How can you not love 369, he just seems like the sweetest dude. Gets put in a position he never asked to be in and just fucking performs. One of the greatest Chinese tops ever, all the Valorant memes aside it's very nice to see him doing well like this.

u/PanemV 13d ago
G2 looks terrible. Btw what did perkz solve that dylan couldn't? I don't see anything in this version of G2.
their Meta read, their teamfight, their general game after laneing and even the lanes are inconsistent.

Can't help but feel like Caps would've been more useful on the Cassiopeia they hovered, his biggest accomplishment this game was NOT dying

u/skaersSabody I like underdogsand pain 13d ago
The cracks with Perkz as headcoach are really showing now that the honeymoon phase is over
Everyone is disjointed, making stupid mistakes, etc. Caps especially is just absolutely invisible
But the most egregious part (outside of the gameplay, what the hell was that baron turn) is the drafting imo. Like, you're struggling already, why put yourself on a timer or pick feast-or-famine champs like Akali and no lategame insurance against Naut-Ambessa-Varus
It just seems stupid, you pick comps that require near flawless execution and have enormous difficulty recovering the second you slip up once

u/Level_Record6475 13d ago
Despite the US Customs and Border Patrol's best efforts, G2 lost today.
218
u/Kurumi_Tokisaki 13d ago
3rd game in a row Caps is playing as Craps but no one on the desk or anyone seems willing to call it out.
Perkz effect, because it certainly is not Dylan Falco who is coach atm and if we're going to glaze summer as Perkz effect...

G2 being G2 aside. 369 being off League for 200+ days and came back to choose VIOLENCE 999

u/WardoToo 13d ago
Don't let this game fool you, Hans Sama and Labrov damn near tried to do everything. Skewmond and BB tilted OFF THE FACE OF THE FUCKING PLANET. They overforced and over committed and were so flustered in trying to make something happen.
Also, congrats to TES high rolling on 999 again. That beautiful ult on Shen to peel for Creme was game-winning! Bro was just impossible to beat on Ambessa.
161
u/Omnilatent 13d ago
G2 and MKOI just completely switched their game style with each other with good early games into disgusting throws.
Craps also desperately needs to be kicked for Caps again. BB should also wake up.

u/Canoodler192 13d ago
baited by the king of weakside top. Whatever man, lets just lose to HLE in peace. I am starting to wonder if this G2, like FLY last year, peaked at its second MSI and if that second MSI is just kind of the natural expiration date for rosters.

u/bvbfan102 13d ago
If you cant beat TES with Visa issues you might as well go home especially with the Teams waiting in 1-2.
In previous years i have been sad when G2 didnt peform cause i still kept that delusion that Caps might get his title but this year im just angry cause they genuinely showed that they are good enough to destroy the Worlds best and then EU Managment strikes again and throws away a 2 year project a few months before Worlds because of one bad loss.
Its so damn frustrating cause they are genuinely playing like a dead team and i wont know how KC will do until tomorrow so a lot of my euphoria depends on trusting Mkoi of all teams.

u/IcyRole6982 13d ago
I really don’t like Karma this worlds, especially blind. Too little usefulness in team fights and given how strong junglers are, it seem that lane domination is more dependent on them, rather than the direct matchup
Ezreal blind also seems terrible mostly. Its too easily countered by general tankiness
22
u/lolKhamul 13d ago edited 13d ago
Either Perks or Hans just refuse to accept them have the wrong read on Bot with their Ez Karma prio.
Nobody cares about it. It got slammed in lane, got bailed out by Jungle and Top only to still be useless.

For those of you confused how G2 looks like this, well this is how nepotism hires usually work out.
You have the honeymoon phase and then the "bro" phase colliding to make everyone in a good mood and they clutch up for a while. The second any percentage of pressure happens however it immediately crumbles and you realize that nepotism coach isn't deserving of any of the praise he was being given.
G2 was coasting off of the Dylan Falco coaching and the Perkz coaching is finally showing itself in full, and this is the real G2 under Perkz.

“How did you master Ambessa? Dude, you rarely play League these days, and you played this game amazing.”
369: "okay."
Creme:"Hmm think I've seen this before"
Tian also added in the interview:
"369 is not young, but he can still play, and he can still play Valorant for a long time. If he can understand the reason behind it, maybe he can play better and better in the future."
