to the final day of the America's Cup.
Furia have looked furious through the upper brackets,
stopping the competition and are undefeated,
and they will face off against a vengeful Cloud9
later today, very shortly, as what is happening onscreen.
Whoa!
Whoa.
How are we supposed to compete with that?
I mean, come on.
It's a reasonable expectation.
I mean come on
Stuffed animal hammer. Well, I don't believe the strawberries actually flips. I think they just went up in the air
So I really can't I think it's about enough of you. He launched it
I just thought enough of you. It's spatula. I'm just saying it is semantics, but it's important
You know, yeah, this important. There's an objective truth is not important. You pair attention to America
We're gonna win today
I mean, I'm not sure if it's
under the upper bracket, but
Cloud 9's undefeated in the
lower bracket. You ever think
of that, buddy? Uh,
But the thing is, not okay in
serious short, you know, we'll
give it to you there. How many
series has furious one in the
lower bracket? Zero. That's a
good point. That is a truth
right there. Actually I'm T.
I've seen is this bit. He's
not wearing a suit. I've been
keeping track. I know people
at home have been keeping
track. When is a narrow
wearing a suit and he has not
thing is coaches are all pointless, so they need to be well dressed to mug the other coaches.
And not sufficiently mocked. They're not. They've remained un-mogged. There's a mug
shortage in Brazil right now, at least from North America. They just look like you. Yeah,
I know. I could be the coach right now. You could. Put me in. Yeah, where's the suit,
buddy? Basically fit. I had actually thought about wearing a black suit for the funeral
on this broadcast. WTF three and errors. Yeah. That's crazy. But I mean jokes aside, it has
been a little tough to watch because man furious look good dude. They have been running through
the bracket undefeated so far and the Brisbane crowds obviously behind them. So props to
them for sure. But as we can take a look at the bracket, they two out C nine to start
off America's Cup. Three old Sentinels who they got pattern continues the four
oh cloud nice true yeah true every time they take one more game against us one
more or they take 50% more so then it's gonna be 4.5 on the C9 could be can you
win point five of the game in a series I mean we say you do and then you lose
the rest of them it's actually that's what throwing is yeah you win point
point you win point five of the game I don't think that counts on the
scoreboard doesn't on league pd and they don't track the point five victories
unfortunately yeah I mean my win record is solo queue would be so much better if
I actually had point five wins as well but then you also get the point one
one lane you know you gotta show my win loss in lane exactly don't show the
actual game when you see the right who needs a nexus I was up for CS I crushed
that guy yeah I roamed mid and through it it's fine yeah Furia let's take a
look at the roster because these are the guys that have been terrorizing the
the LCS tattoo, the captain of the squad.
But I've been impressed with everybody.
We've gotten G-God, we've gotten Tuts as a Collie.
IU in St. Kerry's, Leakey, Majojo.
Very impressed with a lot of his engaged champions.
Specifically, his Nikos looked really good.
So, Furia, I mean, what else can we say
about them at this point?
They're the main characters of America's Cup.
Like, these are the guys.
Yep, they are looking good.
But Cloud9, you know, it was a bit of a messy series
yesterday, but I do think a lot of players
still look a bit better than we had been seeing from them.
Yeah, they've had a bit of time in Brazil to adjust, you know, it's been when we were
interviewing him yesterday was saying that he thought, you know, by far their worst form
was day one because they were flying out 12 hours after they finished here, you know,
in finals and lost there.
So a pretty brutal turnaround, but no excuses now they've been there for quite a few days,
been there for five days, I guess, six days maybe because they got there the day
before they started.
So yes, this will be a six day or so.
So they've had a little bit of time to adjust and no more excuses.
We'll see how they can actually do.
They got to play sentinels. They did three one them, but it was sketchy at times. But
I, I do think definitely if, if Claude nine plays to the best of your ability, they could
easily win this series. But Firi has clearly looked like by far the best team at America's
by far, by far. And I got to say just because the stakes of this match, LCS, CB Lowe
from last year in LTA, we had a bit of a rivalry with the cross conference play.
Now it's feeling like a more, you know, hardened rivalry because first off we got
We did not get Colunga this year yet.
Where are you at, Red?
Yeah.
We're doing that.
Yeah.
Punching out at the one deep that we were in.
Okay.
Yeah.
Fair enough.
There we go.
I forgot where I was going with that.
Oh, I was going to say the rivalry for CBLU versus LCS,
but then also to C9 as a team, as a journey.
This has a chance to be one of the most bummer weeks
possible for a team.
You're the favorite to win in your region.
You make it to the final.
You're the favorite to win in your region. You make it to the finals top two in America's Cup
What are you talking about? You know what? I suppose we put it that way
It's like getting second place back to back. He's really that bad
But still when you look at the team of their expectations like longa they could they could be fourth in America's Cup
You know, I really like their focus actually. Yeah, I've been thinking about the wrong way
Series win-win against red. Let's like let's ignore this fury a team who cares about them
And if you think about it C9 have won as many games
games. They won more games than Furia. Perspective shifts. Change the narrative, you know?
What's the other narrative for the players themselves? Because we got a chance to sit down
and chat with some of them ahead of the match.
I don't even know how we won, but that's it. I'm happy.
I think we ended up really good in the second game.
I think nobody was satisfied. I think we made a lot of shit there, but I don't know.
I think going out with 3-0 is always good, so that's it.
And it was really bad. We get caught a lot. We die a lot. We miss mistakes
But I think if you play our best game of it today in most of the games, I think we can have a good shot tomorrow. I
Mean one thing I want to say is
Interesting to hear from Furia that they are not necessarily satisfied with the 3-0 like they're saying they're they could have done cleaner
They were angry after game twos when only toots was the one satisfied
So interesting to see that even though they're doing well seems like the team and the rosters holding themselves are an even higher standard
Yeah, well, I mean, they're not delusional
They know that in both game one and two against sentinels they easily could have lost right sentinels did have some bad team fights down
Down the stretch and both of those are super winnable for them
And so, you know, they are professional players
They want to play the game as cleanly as they can you know if you if you could have lost the game
And they know they could have lost those games game three
they did dominate though against Sentinels and overall the the reality is they have been the ones to step up in the big moment
They're always the ones that are coming out in top in these late game team fights
They're the ones getting the pick or the ones capitalizing on a mistake from from the NA team
So they deserve a lot of credit for that
I mean they've been the most consistent team and you know whether or not you're winning the whole game
Doesn't really matter if you're the one that's always destroying your opponents nexus
So yeah at the end of the day they are are definitely the favorites coming in and we got to respect that
Unfortunately, we don't count 0.5 game wins.
If we did, Sentinels would have had a couple more.
They would have been on the board.
We would have cumulatively gotten one game win with the 0.5.
Yeah, I would give them 0.5 for game one and two.
Yeah, yeah.
You know what?
Spiritual win.
Yeah.
We ask Caster, we can give them that.
We can give them a moral victory for a game versus Puria.
Let's talk about what we expect to happen today,
though.
It's time for predictions.
We're a minute 50 before the show starts.
So let's pull on up here as Zail.
I made a mistake of rooting for and predicting an NA team.
Last time I was on the broadcast, I'm not doing it again.
3-0, what is that?
Well, they're already 5-0.
I don't think we count the previous series towards.
You might not, but I do.
And OK, there's surely, there's no possible way
Fury could lose a single game.
They're just too good.
They're just too strong.
I've seen players like this before.
Very reminiscent of T1. I think the Golden Road is already secured for Furia.
There's no possible way anything could go wrong for them. No possible way
they could lose draft and lose even one game against North America.
I think everybody at home greatly appreciated that as they also technically,
I don't know if I want to say this, they can't do the Golden Road because they were
second place, their third place actually in C.P. Lowell.
Doesn't matter.
Do we have a different name?
America's Cup is where the Golden Road's trying.
The American's Cup, this is the last one we all know.
We just changed the narrative.
America's Cup is where the real golden road starts.
Sorry, Gen G.
We've all known that.
Nice try, Chovy.
There's actually only four teams that qualify
for the golden road for this year.
Yeah, that is a good point.
Chovy's already failed before he began
because he was not in America's Cup.
He was not in America's Cup.
I see that we both had a similar strategy.
Kobe's still going for the 3-0 for C9 though,
so we all know who to blame.
Where there is delusion, there is hope.
And I quote Kobe in slack this morning as he was submitting his prediction.
There is delusion. There is something interesting.
World we live in where that's what it feels like.
What do you have hope in C9 here in the America's Cup?
Furious still undefeated.
You think they're going to over double their wins in this best of five today?
You somehow guarantee it. In fact, he guarantees it.
Let's see what happens. Let's start the show.
The end of this video.
Please like and subscribe.
We are playing well. I think the two teams of DNA, such as C9 and Sente, did not adapt well to our game, which is a very aggressive game.
Honestly, I think they will come much stronger than in the other series. I think they will come much more prepared. I think they are also a better team than Sente.
I think it will be a little more difficult than it was last time, maybe 3-1, who knows, but I think they will still win.
I think if we play our best game today in most of the games, I think we can have a good
shot tomorrow.
But I think our lowest in the game is really, really bad.
And teams like Fiora will take advantage of that.
So we've got to be more...
I think the first day we played Fiora, we were in a very good shape, like physically
and mentally.
We were in a very good shape.
I think that if we play our best level, like we did today in some of the moments,
we can beat Fiora.
But if you play at a lowest level, we cannot beat Feria tomorrow.
So, it just depends on what level we show up at.
The game number one, Stendol's grill fall is a triple already for Ten.
He's chasing in and wants even more.
Sven grabs the Quadra.
We lost three games to Feria in the last year.
It's time to win against them.
I want to win out of the range and I want to do something so that we win.
Being able to show the world that we can fight in front of and win the game is very good.
And
Welcome to the America's Cup stage for the grand finals of the inaugural
America's Cup where C9 looked to climb the mountain that is Furia
Still undefeated so far, but C9 have an opportunity at revenge
for their first show in it to prove that they have improved as well throughout this week of games
You just got if you have stiff on the on the pistol. Yeah, I don't think it's a song though
I don't think that was an intentional slight it looked like the ancestors just looking the other way
He was giving him the ice. He was well because he went for the fist bump. Yeah, I decided wasn't going for it
We got one there. That was a clean one. Yeah, that was some good jungle synergy nice pathing there from a tattoo of Lever
Flippers used to use peripheral vision, you know as a jungler you have to be good at using all tools at your disposal
As there we go, that was APA actually extended at first
So we're getting better as we go, if anything is then we'll now hug it
Maybe like a jumping high five
Oh okay, freeze frame?
That'd be kinda cool
Nah, just run a fist pump
He did kinda stick armor with that one
Yeah
Straight extended
Just a little cheap shot, get a little cheap shot in there
She's got it in there.
Oh!
No fist bump that one.
Logan said play to the crowd a strategic move.
Yeah.
Three fist bumps in the middle.
No fist bump to begin or to end for the player
in their options.
Which is an actual true fist bump sandwich.
Because usually you say a sandwich, you name it incorrectly.
I want you to put fist bumps were on the outside.
No, because you don't call a ham sandwich a bread sandwich.
You call it a ham sandwich because it's what's on the inside.
So it is a fist bump sandwich in the true sense.
But three slices of ham don't make sandwich either.
you eat the bread.
I mean, I've had some hate of sandwiches.
I was about to.
You're going to turn it on.
You're going to have to get on it.
I've had the bad sandwiches.
My dear.
Sometimes all you got is salami in the house.
You got to make two.
It's not the sandwich brother.
Just eating lunch meat.
And I've been there.
But there's nothing wrong with that.
We've all been there.
Everybody has been there as well.
We're just scraping the bottom of the cover.
And you're like, what do I have to eat?
Well.
when you have a bagel with it though, you know, like a bagel as the bread and then the salami inside.
See, that's not struggle, you know?
Now it's more of a delicacy.
Like, all I got in the cupboard is three pieces of salami and some salt.
I didn't even get up salt with the salami!
I don't know.
You know, you got to add a little seasoning.
It's like a cured meat, that's a good thing.
Like, that's what it is, you know?
No, it's extra cured.
Extra cured meat, okay.
It's an aged salami.
We're gonna brine our salami.
24-hour dry rub brine put it in the
That's all you got. That's all you got
Dry it out salami. I don't want that image of my head anymore
Finals I want to remind you I want to remind yourself because I'm curious what's gonna happen in draft for side selection
I noticed a rather one of the English C below casters pointed this out to me coming into the event again
Shadda and re gay for helping me with a lot of my prep. He said the glacis fear and not without English is unfortunately not related
I don't believe that's the last same thing not the first same thing
79% win rate went ahead at 15 minutes. I was a fun staff for fury
They are a fast team that can win but also a red side favorite team
They're 12 and 5 on red side specifically and two and three and I checked their game record
They played five red side games and America's Cup all of their wins against all
Why are we just letting them have all these units?
Why are we letting them have Red side?
Come on C9, I see you on Blue side right now.
That's a narrow distance.
Get over there, get on the other side.
Okay, so no Taliyah ban.
Furia do have first pick, and C9 are on Blue side.
So we'll see if they are going to be banning out Taliyah here,
if they're willing to give it over.
They are not going to be banning out the Taliyah.
So I wouldn't be surprised if Furia just first picked Taliyah.
If they don't, C9 is going to take it for sure.
And both Pantheon and Virope,
so I feel like Furia have to take Taliyah here.
here. Otherwise you're giving over Pantheon to Lea to ABA. So I'm actually shocked. They're going to go
to UNARA first. Because to me then, I just go like Pantheon to Lea and then you just do Korkinami
or really like any of these types of lanes that are relatively strong. According to Twitch,
you have a sale of Pantheon's a fake jungler. So if you listen to the average Twitch viewer.
I'm so surprised. Lea is just getting completely ignored. And they can just get Pantheon to Lea
on 2-3 then? Yeah, I mean it is up actually and it wouldn't be a terrible
match for these guys. We know that Tuits could play the if you
instead if they want. Yeah, I mean if you do Pantheon to Lillia then obviously
the Lulu could get banned out so you're losing that but I just think
Pantheon to Lillia is so strong. How about a Pantheon Lulu? I mean it's not
bad at all. Obviously Pantheon is just a generically strong jungler. I
just think that pairing with Lillia is so powerful. It allows you to play
side lanes really, really effectively. And what we see from C9, they already want to play forward sides,
right? You have Thanatos on the Ibessa. They can throw some production bands for him. So I think
Renekton is going to get banned out by Cloud9 for sure. They're at least going to throw that to
try to, you know, limit that. But you also have Ryze. Now we have Malphite getting brought in as
well. So a lot of team fighting here for C9, but also the ability to play towards those side
lanes, try to get Thanatos ahead. And Taliyah going to be completely ignored in this draft
Thus far, there's a Renekton ban I knew was going to happen.
If I'm C9, I'm still banning Taliyah here.
And I just do bans on Renekton and Taliyah to deny that pairing.
And then if I am Furia, I'm banning out like Korki, Nami, these types of champions.
So Korki's getting a ban, and then Ash has already banned.
I'm trying to think about the next one would be...
I mean, Korki, Nami is kind of like really common.
You can go Lucian lanes into this.
You can also do... I mean, you have a lot of options.
You can go scaling alongside it.
You're not coming back up. Yeah, that's another option
You also can just go really safe and play like Ezreal Ezreal karma are both up
So I think if I'm fury I would actually probably be in karma next. Yeah karma feels like it's the
A lot of those poke lanes. I'll see what their final one is a Silas band. I do like that
We'll play it and you are showing mouth fights. So Taliyah Pantheon is available
interesting that Fiora were able to actually potentially go for it, and they do agree with you. Let's get karma at him.
Yeah, I mean, the stylus was absolutely required. I wasn't really... I was just kind of autopilot-ing too, Taliyah needs to get banned because Taliyah is OP.
So it's going to be Niko, so you take another strong lane support here. You are going to need that when you are flying against Unar or Lulu.
It's actually a really strong 2v2, and it scales to infinity, so it's just a super strong lane, right?
And that's why we're seeing it become so popular in Chinners in general. It's just kind of super OP right now.
And so, are we gonna get the expected Taliyah, or are they just gonna completely ignore it through the draft?
Would be very surprising. I feel like it's the strongest mid-jungle duo right now in the game, so...
I'll be pretty surprised, but they are just gonna go for our colleague.
Yeah, so no Taliyah, no Taliyah at all.
And they're gonna go back to the Volibear top.
So Renekton gets banned, they go Voli, and this is, again, one of these matchups where I think we actually saw Thanatos play this exact matchup in their last series against them.
Yeah, and I know Gigo. I was excited thinking is it the dusk and dawn build
And it was Hank had said yeah, he went for the fimple winter
He went for unending despair second. I believe if I remember correctly just about neutralizing
Dantitos, right and I think that makes a lot of sense
I will say if you if you go tank folly and you get behind you are gonna be pretty useless in that game though in particular
All of his other lanes were winning so it just doesn't matter right like if all of your lanes are winning and you're playing
golly-top, I think going tank is actually absolutely the correct decision because when you're in a position
where bot and mid are winning hard as top, your job is to just keep the game stable, right? Like
you are the only way that this game can kind of get out of control, so just keep it stable and
we'll see if Gigo is going to go for the same type of situation. Akali is something that Toots
is really good at, really comfortable on, so we'll see how he does perform. Very interesting
though to see, you know, how much Taliyah just completely fell through the draft.
Yeah, because it is such a popular pick and especially for for APA I really do associate that pick very very heavily with him
I actually seem like an embezzak is like unraveled earth
You want to think about how much breadth of a counter pick do you get from that?
Not just the pairing with the pantheon, but then like being able to counter things pretty good into embezzah
Maybe not as much in the rise if he's thinking he just wants to be able to smash his leg because we know that
Toots is an insane Akali player. He can
take over games
Coming into the event the expectation that I heard from the English casters was like he's had rough Akali games
So sometimes they get nervous when they see the Akali come out
But recent performances have all been good. It's just gave the camera a little side-eye right there
It was very comical
I feel like that that should be like a a clipped moment right there see nine socials take that still and save it for later
Depending on how the rest of the series goes
I'm giving them give them some somatic here
Where was that camera? Wait is that?
Now I'm like how did how was that there because Vulcan wasn't in the shot. I'm amazed by that camera shot
That was a phantom camera like this. Yeah, that's probably
It's a shoulder cam turn it up to the side
But we've loaded on the Summoner's Rift for the grand finals of America's coughs eb low
Specifically Fioria have been making us look like fools up to this point
Let's see if C9 can get their revenge.
Well, this one's for all the marbles, baby.
This one's for all of NA.
Exactly.
Tatu going to get spotted.
Not going to be able to chase him in or do anything too crazy,
but you will know his start point.
It is going to be Nico Ezreal here for Zven and Vulcan.
Very similar to how you want to play out
Korki Nami into this lane.
It's all about poke.
It's all about short trades.
And it's about not getting caught by IU
with lethal tempo stocked and with that Q stacked up
as well.
So we'll see how we're going to do on the bot side.
This is very, I think, you go-favored in that 1v1 based on the matchup top side.
So Tantos is just going to be about scaling and maybe waiting till Bliber's there.
Maybe he can look for ganks later on.
But the real point of power, I think, for C9 is going to be mid,
where we should have pushed early because it is range versus melee.
And then on this bot side, if they're hitting their poke,
this is definitely a winning 2v2.
Yeah, and we see right now early heal.
So Vulcan and Xven are actually the ones who go aggressive,
but a couple of mystic shots.
Yeah, Chodra's able to sidestep, and that is a health trade in favor of Puria, who just answered the heal.
So we see that happen a lot, you know, if you're trying to push them off of that level 2,
or try and get the level 2 early yourself, you just use it for the move speed, move up, but...
Now it's gonna be all the potions used from Zven, Vulcan has one left there, and a slight lead in the bot lane for Puria.
Oh, ouch. That was a big mistake from Fender's. You cannot ever go into the sky splitter.
If you get hit by the E, you get crushed in those trades, which is what we saw there.
He tried to dash forward.
Both of the bots are gone up Gecko though,
so he'll probably take a base here.
And Dantos is going to be happy about that.
But we saw that aggressive heal trade.
That's kind of the meta these days,
is people just trade aggressively, utilizing heal and barrier,
and really get in their face.
They know that Blibber is cleaning bot side.
They had a ward on Raptor, so this is completely safe.
So he's going to go through.
He's going to proxy, use the Sky Splitter
and all the AoE from Voli, and then take a base, which
means he doesn't have to use TP.
And Dantos is just going to try to push forward
and clear that wave really quick,
so he can take a base of his own.
Proxying is so powerful because it forces your opponent to stay around the wave won't be in the middle
It'll crash on the tower and so it gives you this kind of delayed
Situation where he's just gonna take the tier refill will in the TV back
And he's gonna try to keep then toast, you know in this kind of awkward spot
And one of the things about the proxies that you're able to hit the wave so much earlier than the opponent go for that back
And like you said try and cheat to walk up with IU takes big chunk right there
Get it back on the fan Jojo just smack him down with the glitter lance
Lulu auto's coming in as well and Vulcan pushes back IU. So it's been very low, but you had the barrier, had the flash held now.
See if Lava wants to make any action happen. It's dangerous to try as a level 4 Malphite. You don't have like a lot of CC your ways to get into the area.
Basically, if they flash forward or something, Lava walks behind them, right? But other than that, you're not going to be able to do much.
much and so far so good here from the fury of bot lane I really like that from
Vulcan though he used the clone to actually pull the wave so the wave is now
stacked on bot side it's gonna push towards them so this will give them a
little bit of an advantage just a few too many skill shots missed in these
2v2 trades that meant it kind of evened out for Furia. I don't know what's
spotted by that ward right there so they ping it out and I think he's
probably still just gonna be happy getting his own camps but now he goes
walking forward and it has the wave under his turret as Gigo will walk up and just
try and bother Blabber. Level 5 Bolliebear it is a scary position to
stick around long time yeah so he decides to back off. Yeah it would be risky to
fully commit there I mean if he goes in he's not level six he doesn't have his
ult to get over a wall or anything. Pantos could laugh so he could eventually
get chased down but still good information they know exactly where
he is and just gonna be harassing you as much as possible as so it's just
trying to take these trades, but the room prison didn't land and APA is doing just fine in this matchup.
Neither of the leaders have base and they both still have a potion remaining here.
We saw that APA tried to base earlier and Tutsa actually stopped it.
That's how the Sky Slybder is dodged by Thanatos, but Kiko, even though he took a turret shot,
still up into trade. Yeah, this is such a brutal matchup. We saw this happen last time too.
It's like just stat checking. Yeah.
The Holy Bear wins it as our Toots will actually get damage onto APA.
Has the Electrocute, Flash of APA, first blood from Toots as top lane.
Geego takes two turret shots, Flash of the Toots but doesn't get an auto off.
So Geego can flash back to safety still though.
First blood to Toots and the 1v1.
Yeah, rough. APA I guess didn't expect him to actually take that E in.
And even with the Flash, APA gets solo killed.
Pretty rough for him getting solo killed this early.
Solo kill before a call he has to buy is just awful and is not ideal.
I mean, Blyber gets a kill back.
Gigo honestly really lucky to survive there.
Thanatos with that flash trade.
Gigo has, I don't even know, 20 HP or something like that.
So if you got a kill there, that would have been really good for Thanatos.
At the very least, he did get the push in and he was going call.
So the fact that he's going for a much more greedy build here,
just early call, scaling up is nice that he has been able to hold on
like in this matchup so far.
As you see, Twitz now on the dragon.
Tatsu.
Man, I need glasses.
Can I check yours, see if we have the same prescription?
No.
We can trade it off between fights.
Bliber is witnessing this as we get the replay.
Yeah, that's tough.
Again, this is pre-buy.
So the lethality is pretty low.
Like, they're not going to be able to one-shot you,
but APA just got so low.
And Shuriken flip hits.
And then APA, when he flashes away,
he's still in range of that five-point strike.
I can't remember what it's called.
Is it five-point strike?
What is the key goal?
Five-point strike.
So he's still in range of that.
So he tried to flash away, but then he went back to the room
prison and just barely got in range.
How do you been able to range that?
He definitely lives, but at the end of the day,
really well played by Toots.
And APA hasn't been having the easiest time.
One more up here as Geego is hanging around the river.
As a Stormbringer, I believe.
Yes, no flash, but Stormbringer's available.
So I'll stop with the force to knock him up it on the big chunk out for the heel. Yeah, APA has no AP built
I really on rise. I don't understand why glad we're all dead at all
I think it was totally fine like you just you pushed him out great
Yeah, he's gonna lose he's gonna lose minions just hold on to the mouth fight all there
That made no sense whatsoever to me if Santos is roaming
I think it makes sense
But I think it's so much better to actually hold your all for a time when you really have threat on the kill
Or to even just continue zoning him away, right?
Because if you hold them off that wave, then Denito is going to deny a full wave if not two waves
So I think they really misplayed that I think the attempt is totally fine
But yeah, I mean this is a tier and a couple health crystals on APA so no shot that they were actually gonna kill blabber
I mean maybe you're just thinking like kill
Yeah, maybe you're just thinking like the
Electrocute on the mouth fight is gonna be enough to put it over the edge. I don't know
ambitious to say the least and now that's gonna be no mouth fight ultimate available for
You know about another 45 seconds here, so there's a window now where you're not able to contest
I mean the dragon was already taken earlier by tattoo, so maybe they're thinking we're not gonna get abused for that window
But yeah, he is now on his rafters as you can see it right during that time
So it's oh, they're gonna step on and now grand starfall
Blabber no ultimate and wishing he had it
Yeah, he was butterscrap for not having that old yeah
I mean, he has no flash because he used the flash earlier to kill off Toots after the solo kill onto APA.
So wasted Malfutile gets spotted out and they're able to find a nice kill onto him.
It's kind of just unforced errors, honestly, from the mid jungle of C9.
APA getting solo killed, then Blavr wasting his ult, chasing down Gigo where he would never kill him.
And then he gets taken out in the jungle as a result.
Really good punish from Furia.
Yeah, and that's basically, you can make that into a PSA.
Honestly, we probably should have. Hey, jungler's at home.
If you're playing Malfight, if you're playing any jungler with an impact ultimate,
don't just use it if you're not going to get the kill because you can get punished later on.
He does have it this time around though, and now flash by Tatu,
but sets up the public execution.
Thanatos is here this time around, and Furia do not have the numbers.
Thanatos with the first kill as Stormbringer gets a Gigo to safety,
but one already falls, they got Tatu, gold 4C9.
Yeah, pretty good. We did get one kill there.
We got two flashes and a heal for our flash shield there from Vulcan.
So not bad at all.
And the fact that Thanatos is the one that gets the kill is pretty nice here.
So, Cloud9, gonna be pretty happy about that.
Would have been great if they could have denied that final grub.
Yeah.
Because it wasn't early smite from Tatu, it was down to 70 health.
But he's able to finish that before they got out.
And of course, Cloud9 would have liked to finish off JoJo as well.
Thanatos.
Yeah, more kills would have been great.
if Hanzo finds himself in a one that V1,
but I bet so much mobility can get away.
So let's look at this one.
It's actually, yeah, flashing me up a couple of floors,
but then the flash pop loss.
Yeah, and then the public execution comes through.
They can't finish off JoJo.
You hit the wild growth, knock up on multiple people.
Just flashes out, talk to.
Not so lucky, but he go able to run as well.
And yeah, overall, very, very close game.
Some mistakes for sure from Cloud9.
The big concern for me is really just
what is going to be done about as a colleague.
Akali was kind of gifted this early kill and then the mistake on the waisted
Malfight Aliment he got a second so it's an 800 Gold lead now for the Akali and
you just do not want to let this champion get ahead like that especially on these
Gunblade builds it is so much burst and a lot of sustain so you can't even really
whittle him down. And such a differential between the items that APA has as well
still has not picked up any ability power. This is tier, you know some
Magikers is some health and mana, but you know you're building towards that rod of ages
You're building towards that serifs is going to take you time to come online
But a call is online like a call is at the point already where you're feeling like a champion
Yep, a call you're really really strong at this point of the game
But then if there's doing great in the 1v1 he got a kill for himself and you can see Gigo there
You know tried to go aggressive with trade, but when the sky splitter doesn't hit when the E doesn't hit
You know he's just kind of chasing after Thanatos but then it just wakes up the shield
and then turns around and takes a really heavily winning trade and
And is on 20 stacks of that call then so so taking the tower
Public execution flashed by ego
Into the retreat path of the fanto splashes into the brush and is able to get away now blabbers joined in
C9 stop laneers long enough and blabber gets a kill. We this is that's what I call out dominant
You know you get the troll a little bit and then they'll have this oh wait a minute
And Toots actually showed up from the middle and walked up and find the trade kill.
Don't like that. Alright, 1k lead now for the Akali.
Yeah, Phantoms took a couple of tower shots and kind of baited.
He got into chasing.
Labyrinth able to flash, get a kill there.
Unfortunately though, Toots is able to get one back again
and they're gonna be another dragon at the same time.
So, cool that even APA will be able to get a plate.
One more auto would have been needed to get a second one there.
But, nicely played by Toots.
He doesn't even use his TP or his flash to do it, so he can TP right back to mid lane and defend that tower.
Now he's got the Merc treads, he's got the Dark Seals, we can start stacking that up and
Akali not even using the TP for that round while I've just walked up there.
Let's see a replay of how he was able to get up there.
So, already in the mid lane, yeah, this is what we saw on screen, but what I did notice was to, it's
from the mid lane, when does he start to walk up?
Oh, he's already walking up.
Oh yeah, yeah, he's coming up now.
And Gigo, I mean, Tanto's just misplayed this, right?
He's trying to go for Q harass as he's farming under the tower, but Gigo is Q'ing towards you, right?
He's looking for the stun, so when he hits him with that Q, he gets under the tower, takes a couple of tower shots.
Still wouldn't win the 1v1 if he connected on that public execution, but it was a great flash from Gigo.
And then Dust just comes in, plays that really, really well, snaps back to the shroud after the kill,
and is able to finish that off and get out really cleanly, so Dust looking clean on the Akali, well played by him.
That was actually very well played mechanically using that shuriken flip great effect for the volley though
I will say yeah, Thanatos has finished that first item and again with this tankier bill
That's not like volleyball is stacking up more damage if he's going to be giving it's to survive and you have no armor
Oh, yeah, true. That's only health. Yeah, good point. Yeah, which is which is really a big deal when you are especially advanced going
You know, I miss already has some armor fan facility from the ulti
And then you get the eclipse early on the call is going to cash out in two more waves
So that is getting a little bit dicey lever. We'll have to be a bit careful though is again
Furia just always converging around these these little objectives looking to fight
It's it's part of the play that they're playing that I really really like is they know
All right when someone is strong we need to force around them. We need to be aggressive
And you have a callie in this situation where a callie is is very far ahead right now
But it's against a team comp that has a lot of a OECC
So sometimes team fights could be hard later on
And so you want to utilize the pantheon the Akali right now to keep pushing the pace and keep kind of snowballing the game
Yeah, if you get into those, you know front to back team fights, which is never where college can be good at anyway
But the Niko ultimate in particular. It's such a big field that you have to play around
So to its to his credit is not playing for that right now
He's roaming around getting these sideline plays right now
He's in the bot lane gets a plate for himself there
But yeah, it's that's kind of the focal point for fury. Meanwhile on C9 side
I do still see a lot of scaling options specifically in the rise. He hasn't finished the rod of ages yet
So once we get APA to that two items now just finished a lot of ages there as I pointed it out
So I mean like if they can just maintain this kind of even game state
They're probably feeling alright, but two dragons already to fury a they can't start using these kind of four C9 to play into them
Yeah, exactly
They're not gonna be able to get to two items for that fight that fight in the next next dragon here
Labrador is going to have two items because he's going for this cheap build here
You know with the early Zeke's and then you kind of just go all support items on this jungle Malphite
So that is great, then you will have this flashback for this next fight
But C9 has really good scaling up on their side
I do think both teams have some elements that scale really really powerfully obviously Lulu, Unara is problematic later
Malphite is a very strong teamfighter later on into the game is good early too
But Thanatos is going to be scaling up, Ryze is going to be scaling up, Ezreal is going to be scaling up
So I think there's a lot of power on both sides. It's just a lot about the initial engage really.
I mean, Sina has so many go buttons and it's just gonna be, you know, can you absorb and kind of avoid those on the Furious side?
Because if IU gets caught by the Malfight Alt, then public execution's gonna hit, the pop awesome's gonna hit, the room prison's gonna hit, everything's gonna hit, and you're gonna get one shot.
So it's kind of all about that initial engage.
And we haven't even seen IU in a fight yet. He's just been farming around. Like the Yanarra fighting is also a real threat to keep it.
in consideration from C9's side. If they don't land their CC on TNR, I mean your
Malfight's going in, your Niko's going in to the auto attack range of this late
game carry. So Furia in a fantastic position so far. Herald is gonna be the
next focus right now as Flavor's engaged on by Tatu. W lands but not a full
commit. Flavor still has his ultimate so Furia need to be careful if they
send too many members forward. It's easy to be careful too because Flavor lost half
as health and Sven is poked a bit as well. I feel like we're not in the position to fight
this. Toots me the move faster as well, so I feel like that little skirmish actually won
Furia the Herald and we have Ambesa down on the bottom side. That is really the only advantage
that C9 have right now. I mean, yes, blover is up gold as well, but I don't think that
C9 really want to take fights without Ambesa. That is kind of the follow up, you know,
on this initial engage. That's supposed to help you get those kills. So with Ambesa
I think they're just going to be waiting for this next dragon and we'll see if
about nine can get vision around that area.
And I want to give more credit to Fury and how they played that position because it
relates to how we had talked about them coming in is they were a strong macro
team last year compared to the rest of CBLOL. That's a very controlled moment
there. When I think of old CBLOL teams and how aggressive they are, they're
probably all landing and sending it there. They're like, oh, we found the
Malfi, we checked him out, we're running the health bar trade. But no, they
decided to back off, let Blabber leave, and like you said with that
how far Trey just used that to get the Herald.
So now it's the two strong soul laners up on that top side.
It looks like they're just going to try to go for a tower
Trey, dropping Herald mid.
They're going to be able to get that turret very, very likely.
And that would be first tower.
But C9 is trying to get back fast enough to answer this.
We'll see if they want to force a fight.
So they stop the dragon stack.
You know, Blaver is walking forward.
The Herald will get the charge off,
but it will not clear the entire turret.
C9, they get the dragon, and they defend.
Yeah, that's actually really big,
because first tower is still up for grabs.
And that is a big injection of gold
if you lose that.
Of course, this tower is still basically one auto away.
If they can get the minion wave there
with the crystalline overgrowth,
they should be able to finish it.
So, C9 wanna try to defend this pretty heavily,
but they are able to grab the dragon unconfested
and Fiora don't really get much of anything for it.
So, C9 gonna be happy about how that went.
Unfortunately, not defending this tower enough
so the tower is still gonna go.
And into the pocket there of IU.
You know, right when you send the credit,
you need more members to stick around
to actually make sure that wave doesn't crash in there.
So, Fiora still do eventually get that turret, but still C9 denied the dragon stacking, so that will buy them a lot more time in this game.
That feels good, because you're able to get to that two items for the rise before you have to contest for the next one.
I use that two items now here too, though, so he just got a lot stronger.
The Shadowflame is going to be done pretty soon for Toots, so they have a lot of really strong members right now,
and we're kind of waiting for Tantos to finish, so I assume he's going to be Shogun, we're waiting for Sven to finish his Marimona as well.
So that's going to be kind of the next big
inflection points in the game.
And I think C9 should be able to easily get that
before the next dragon.
And then we're just going to have to see kind of
where it goes from there.
Again, there have been a number of games
that have been quite close against Feria.
Like this is Super Winnable,
the Sentinels game one, game two were Super Winnable.
But it was Feria always seeming to come up big
in those moments.
So we'll have to see if C9 is going to be able
to step it up here today.
We heard the same thing from Zenn yesterday
where for most of the series,
he was saying they thought they played really well
and Sentinels but they had some very bad moments too and they were punished heavily for those.
I think that's making it so that everybody watching from LCS side is experiencing at least a
level of anxiety watching this because we know what C9's looked like so far in this event
and also even just the end of the LCS finals. There's another turret will fall for Furia. We
still haven't gotten one on the board for C9. They have AP on the side laying up top and
And then, Thanatos was going for, I don't know if that was a reset or why Toots was able to just walk up and hit that turret.
But either way, now two in the Biothere and a 1.7k gold lead, pretty much all of that just being Toots alone.
Yeah, I mean, Blavra was topside, so Blavra was up on topside and we didn't have eyes on the Pantheon ult.
So I think that's why he's able to walk up. I mean, if you walk up to that tower, it's already low on health.
So defending these low health towers can be such a bait where, you know, all of a sudden they just walk up in your face.
your face, Pantheon all comes in, a colleague finishes his power, and then you're kind of
just getting one shot by those two. So I think that was the worry. Plus, I mean, the actual
kill of the tower isn't worth that much compared to what it used to be because the goal is
split through all the plates, right?
Yeah, and they're the first turret.
Exactly. So it's not the end of the world, but...
Speaking of turrets though, and Pantheon ultimates, Gigo starts it off, turning
off the turret, but now Tatsu stuck under there, and Flabber ulted in, and it
joins up as well. Furia have multiple members backing up their top lane dive, but C9 are still peppering down Gigo.
Oh, the public execution lands, but the Wild Goat keeps them safe hop on to the screw, but he's already down.
Toots unleashed. Furia dominating another fight as they will defend C9's re-engage.
How was then in the middle of the whole team? Did he just shift into the center of everyone?
Well, let's see that again.
get that. Yeah. I mean that was awful. That's that's game pretty much. I mean that's just
the game right you you full sent it on a random five five at 20 minutes top lane over nothing
got completely blasted and now they get there for free. So GG game one I think unfortunately
for four C nine and Fury continues their continuous their winning ways. It's just
again Fury is out playing in these bigger moments. You know we send the ulti on the
Tatsu does take a tower shot for it, but it's not really a big deal and I want to track
Then and see what the heck happens then and we were going very fast very early on and there's the public execution
Then is going forward. Yeah, you shift forward in the midst of kind of everyone as
Yeah, so it's went pretty aggressive. So he shifted forward, but I mean we just way over sent it
I mean that was bad from Ben, but also I think I think banjos went way too far
I think they need to slow play that I
I don't think that they realized what the fight was actually gonna turn into even blabber using the one-man alts on the pantheon
He was under the tower. So that's the thought process is lock them under the tower and take those shots
I wasn't taking her at the entire time. Yeah, you only took one tower shot
Which basically did nothing to him and then we have no mouth fight alty and
his van is shifting forward and
Vulcan got I guess just one shot because he has zero damage dealt in the fight
So that was not a good fight at all from C9 and now you're pretty much in the in the spot
where you're just preying on on fury mistakes which they have not really been making a lot of them
Now another swarm bringer here onto APA he's got Jojo behind him Gigo and a 2v2 as Blapur backing up his mid laner with a wild growth for the CC
big shield from APA's serifs and he does get to safety
but man Gigo's a problem bot lane's a problem they have the baron wave so they can just start seeding these turrets
and nobody stopping the dragon because Blacker was just seeing topside.
So, if you're either not giving these mistakes to C9,
they were gifted a great opportunity to take that early Baron,
and now they are getting a big gold lead with it.
Yep, I mean, now they're on sole point and it's Hex sole here.
Meaghan with for Geego.
There, yeah.
There's no Flatter all, they might eventually get him.
Should go down, but they don't have a lot of games right now.
APA, World Realm Warp, and JoJo's coming up for the shield.
Grand Circle, use it!
They can't even kill the ultimate Flashless Volleybear as the play has turned around from Furia.
Ark of Judgment comes in from IUS, he has popped the ultimate.
Trying to get some damage back.
C9 can at least escape, but they just can't kill anybody.
IU with the outplay!
And IU will take down Sven.
Yeah, Sven goes in just forward trying to get some damage back.
But even with the Flash away, IU just flashes to follow.
And you're trying to look for this play on Akigo, but it's a full tank Volley
and you're looking with essentially your support, your mouth-light jungle, and then APA shows up at the end.
But we have no damage to actually kill him, so it wasn't already fully over, it's definitely super over now,
as they are just getting so far ahead.
Because now, I mean, Gigo actually doesn't really matter at all, right?
Like, you're going to the one player that basically doesn't matter.
Twitch was already very far ahead, and now IU's on three items with IE,
and Sven is on two in scraps so IU is way stronger and we don't have enough
consistent damage because our Ezreal is way behind our our rise is not
accelerated and Vanitas his his advantages haven't really amounted
anything. Azalea you're a fan of animated films. Like what? Have you ever seen the Iron Giant?
I have yeah. I just watched it for the first time last night. It's a super old movie.
And I think this is more sad than the endifier giant.
I wasn't better than the endifier giant than right now.
This is tough.
And it's kind of a continuation of a lot of the event.
4C9 is, unfortunately, they played most of the game well.
But that top lane mistake was obviously pretty huge.
APA and Blivra had made some mistakes early,
but they weren't game losing.
They weren't that big of a deal.
And Thanos had created an advantage even
with the counter pick and whatnot. He was in a good spot. Bot was dead even. But fights
are not built equally in League of Legends.
Yeah. Here's a replay of the extended play after he went already ulted. And like it's
comical how little damage they do to him.
Yeah. I mean, APA just arrived at the very end. So they made it there at the start.
He's going for sure, obviously, but he is not there. And now if I don't pop off
some thugger to see much to this very tanky volley. And the backlight alive. Yeah,
looks like tattoo flew in with the old spin already out of the fight.
And Furia killing the 80 carry.
Not a lot more that C9 can do to defend at any other plays as APA pushing up a top
wave.
It has been a very rough event for a spin.
I will say he's getting caught a lot.
He's kind of been really struggling even with advantages.
He's been really struggling.
I feel like in a lot of the games who I think back to his close the game
you know, against I guess that was against Furia last time.
Now, aww, no, 5 points right, we'll stop it.
Actually, I believe it was even Tatu's Q that stopped it.
Either way, AP will pop the ghost and try and waste some time.
How much time can he waste?
10 seconds here?
Five seconds?
Oh.
I mean, they just want to delay his death time right this
time.
Actually, yeah.
So I don't think it's super working his favor.
It's all fine.
He does at least clear the wave.
So that'll be something for him.
But Tatu gets the kill at the end of the day.
And the lead grows even larger now for Fury at Cloud9.
Have to fight the next dragon here,
but don't really see a realistic way
that they're going to win it unless, I mean,
maybe if IU gets caught by everything
and wants you out to start a fight, you have a chance.
But even then, Twitz at this point
might just kill your whole team.
Yeah, we haven't seen C9 even find these little avenues
or these little pockets of vision
where they can pounce on somebody from Fury
or walking up to drop their wards.
They're always kind of approaching on full vision.
like we're just saying, okay, we see each other,
Duke it out.
I think we gotta get a little more creative.
We're gonna try him out to come back here.
I mean, the weirdest part to me is that
they just full send it over a nothing fight top lane
and the whole game was just decided over a 5v5
in top lane for nothing.
Just depending on where you're gonna die.
We're gonna need to watch that one back live
because like when we get a replay from our perspective,
we'll see that Zven's not there like the whole time.
Like he's like shifting to try and get closer
to the fight by the time he shows up to it's on him.
So.
And the whole point of this conference C9
basically your first of the objective they have to walk in and you find a
squishy member it's malphite alt into pop blossom into dangle barbs into room
prison into public execution just give it a tc and someone gets one shot but
never really got a chance to group up and go for that and now they're walking
into a dark jungle themselves they're holding on to Tuts but he never talked to you
around there he has the wild rope behind him a triple pop blossom by space
but it is no follow up. Morgan still goes down it looked cool but Tuts is
is just too strong, he goes too strong,
the damage could not follow up the engage,
and theory, despite losing one,
will still smash the fight.
A support for a game one is a trade
you'll take every day of the week,
he goes underneath the turret,
that's five shots, six shots, seven turret shots,
and I think he's just gonna walk away from that one,
flash him up from APA, the overload, he got him!
All right, APA, he only needed seven turret shots
help them out as Tuts will still find the ace.
Yep, and that's going to be all she wrote.
They knocked down the dragon.
They get the soul.
McLeod 9, you have to send it, right?
You have to be looking for this.
When you're already that far down,
you can't give over a Hextech soul.
But they couldn't really find a good target.
I mean, it's very unlikely that the fight is going
to be one when you're full sending in on the Pantheon
with Lulu behind him.
But they know that they have to choose someone.
They have to go for it.
Well, we're going to have a really good ult,
but they couldn't coordinate that with anything else,
right you know nothing is hitting the back line at the same time if he gets
that all then and then it goes in there and blabbers in there that's what we're
looking for yeah but we're never really getting to see that all the game was kind
of decided before they got a single good team fight also we're just like
zoning everyone out so like yeah flashing over the wall as Vulcan with the pop
loss of the gold lead in Bali 5k 5k individual gold lead now for IU then
and then is just completely out of this game it's four and a half items
versus two and a half items.
That is actually one of the bigger ball lane gaps I think ever had the privilege of casting doesn't feel like privilege right now.
Fury of the Baron, C9 can't even walk up the contest so they're going to get this one.
It looks like Thanatos will trade for the bottom turret but that is the first turret that C9 will take in this game at 29 minutes.
If he can even get it, it's taking a while. He's got the wave there. I assume it's going down.
lost to celebrate it if it happens I get so it's still holding but there we go
okay we got there they got one back in it nobody beats C9 without giving up
at least a turret yeah that's that's so far so far yeah don't shake the tape
because I'm not confident in that statement
Furia though with their next player in the after-dragging stall, Roar van is Vulcan, sent for the pop loss, but he doesn't get it off!
Let's say it was actually used but just didn't land either way, Furia. Not threatened as IU gets back over the wall,
puts us on the ace game. Furia just slaughtering C9 in their own base with a game one that could have been an email
and a cakewalk for Furia. They will maintain their undefeated streak to kick off the grand finals best of five.
Six games in a row.
All right, I'm gonna watch that top lane fight back.
We're gonna watch that back,
because that's where it was decided.
Furia crushes it, game one.
I'm gonna go to the 80%.
Okay.
While Adele's doing that,
I mean, the Brazilian crowd has a reason to cheer
because they have a champion
worth making some noise for.
Furia again are just crushing the competition here.
It was close, but this wasn't Furia falling behind
early game like they were against Sentinels
and then having to find a comeback.
back. It was an even game state this time around. And Azale is going to show at C9. We
just full send it on to them. Yeah, they were the ones looking for the dive on the
turret initially, so they don't have the volleyball. They don't have the pantheon old. So like,
I understand the beginning of why C9 would want to try something. But as Azale will show
us here momentarily, the rest did not go our way.
Yeah, I'm pretty much ready so we can swap over here to this, to this view
and seeing game. So this is right before it happened here. You know, it is just
Just like gold advantage, of course, there are four Furia, you can see in the mid lane,
that is basically where their entire gold advantage is.
But Thanatos has a pretty significant lead, bot lane is behind a bit, but everything
is going okay for C9 and it's going to be about teamfight execution, you have to
think.
But then we can see here on the map, everyone from Furia is going to be moving up.
They do have eyes on this, this ward just got dropped and that shut off the vision,
but obviously there's C9 pings everywhere in this area, they know that something
is going to happen.
So clearly they're making the call.
Let's try to respond to the dive. So Gigo is going to look to start this off
He turns off the tower APA is just gonna pop ghosts get his phase rest Brock
And he's basically just gonna kite Gigo away from the tower the tower is disabled this whole time though, right?
So the tower has not heated up whatsoever. You can see there's no passive tax on it has not heated up
So blabber goes in for the alti, but we already see all three of these guys here
So to me at this point
I feel like C9 could have just taken taken what they got and backed off if you are gonna go for the fight
This is not a good enough ulti from the Malphite, right?
Just now the tower reactivates, and as Tatu walks out, he takes one turret shot.
But like, that is all the ulti really got there.
It needs to be used in conjunction with the Pop Lossum, with the public execution.
Zven is also pretty behind the play. He's been running here this whole time, but he is behind the play.
So C9 are gonna go forward. The initial part of this obviously pretty good.
You get some chunk down onto Gigo, but this is where it feels like we started to really rush it, right?
Again, his van is back here. He has no arcane shift and we have no unsupply force
And we're gonna full send it into the backline on to the tank volibear. This is the tank volibear
This is not even IU IU is in the midst of the team
Vulcan is looking for an angle for a pop awesome. These are the targets
We need to be going for right we need to be going for the squishier members
So we send it in onto Gigo not only is there not really a possibility of follow-up here
But then look at where where Tuts is right so now Tuts is gonna be moving in between the back line and the target
So Tuts is gonna step forward here
He's gonna ult in and now Sven is is in this really difficult position
Vulcan is getting free hit by IU and we're focusing a tank Volibear in the midst of this
So then tries to shift away
He tries to get away from from puts as they're looking for this pop awesome at the same time
Vulcan gets one shot. Then it's in the middle of the whole team
He dies. Gigo doesn't even go down. Just really kind of a whole comedy of errors there from cloud nine from target selection from coordination
Kind of everything went bad in this team fight and that is just not good enough as far as the team fighting is concerned
The target selection was bad the execution was bad and we're not putting any pressure
I mean look at this is the end of the team fight look at the health on the Akali and and on the unara
They're full health this was like a picture perfect team fight if you're a team that has an 80 carry
That wants to just hit the nearest person and shred tanks if you have an assassin that wants to get on the back line
Both of those were able to do exactly what they wanted to do in that point
like I was auto-ing the entire time and
That's just got on to Sven immediately and just one shots in yep. All right. Let's pick up the PGB
We can see that
As this was a tough game
23.5k damage done by IU, great work from the Yanarra, even Gigo in the top lane getting insane damage numbers there.
We had three players from Fiora out damage C9.
I mean it's not like C9 didn't have members to hit, they were still hitting Volibear the entire time,
but we just saw a difference in execution in those teamfights, specifically that one, the Goldy gets so massive.
Um, and then, you know, full sending onto the Pantheon at the end there by the dragon soul.
Like, again, you got to find something to do, but there's a wild growth behind it.
There's ages of soul to block all the damage after the knockup ends.
So it's like, I mean, that one wasn't a great fight, but that one, the game's already pretty over at that point.
So at that point, you don't have the luxury of choosing good fights, right?
So I blame them less for that fight when you already have them at soul point.
You're way down on gold.
You have no vision.
You're walking in and you basically just have to take what you can get.
But the earlier fight was, was kind of more of an unforced error.
They had taken a dragon or two, you know, there was not a big threat of soul.
There was nothing that they really needed to force their hand over.
And we just never saw Cloud9 really get to XU on what the whole point of the comp is,
which is this layering of AOE CC, this layering of AOE ultimates.
You can run more bin pop loss and you can run more bin of malphite.
You can follow that up with the public execution.
Not once did we see a layering of these ultis.
And so it's really disappointing from Cloud9.
They put themselves in a position where they would have a chance,
despite the early mistakes, but Furia plays it better.
And in this one, I feel like Cloud9 is just making it too easy for him.
Yeah. And Tuits, I think, well deserved for player of the game, 8-1 and 3 on the Akali.
We were talking about, ah, the Taliyah is up. It's right there. But like,
if you have the Akali in your back pocket and you feel like it's the right cop for it,
and you're able to pull off those early roms, like he went topside, he gets a kill,
he's able to get all around the map.
I mean, he solo killed APA when all he had was a D-Shield.
Yeah.
And then he gets up top and gets the kill there. They get the pick on Blabber for
for the missing ultimate.
I mean, they've done a great job
at publishing C9's mistakes,
but C9 are making a lot of mistakes.
They're making it too easy for them.
Yeah.
Well, hey, C9, they're down, they're not out.
They have a chance to turn things around,
but we both predicted FURIA anyways.
So I think from this side,
things are going according to plan, right?
There's no chance Cloud9 can come back
from a 1-0 deficit.
There's no chance.
Speaking of the plan here,
a reminder everybody that we not only have
We're not only at first and we also have LCS spring split right around the corner. It's beginning April 4 tickets are available March 10
So set your calendar for then if you want to come for opening weekend and it's going to begin with the matchup of finals from C9 versus
Lyon. Lyon are going to have loud actually ahead of them in first stand. There's the draw already. So we'll see which LCS team looked better against the
That's the same little things ahead of the spring split match, but reminders that your
account is from March, Shent, the buy tickets for April 4th spring split.
That's it for game one.
We're going to send it to short break before we're back for game two.
was the curse I think that's what we learned so we brought Kobe on to see if
you could cleanse things over here first game of cloud nine versus furia here we
go all right kangus I'm changing up the vibes you know what we're gonna change up
the strategies as well what is the game I'm gonna play yep start guessing see
if you can guess what champions blabber has 100% win rate on I think we need
I think we need to think outside the box here because you're all you know
Yeah, all time because in his career, you know, we're all APA you got to play Ziggs
You got to play to Leah your best champions. No
There are also some things that he has not utilized in a long time
But did you know that APA has an 81% win rate on twisted fate
Twisted fate has been used
It's been used overseas
several times, not always effective, but APA has 11 games on it. He's nine and two.
We saw it.
Hey, he's even used it earlier in America's Cup.
Yeah. Let's, uh, let's switch it up here.
You know, some twisted fate, go sidelines, and then pair with some Blabberchamps.
Try and guess.
He's got 100% Blabberchamps throughout his career.
He's been playing for a long time.
So it's got to be like James.
He's played a few times throughout his career.
Yeah. He only has a couple of plays on them.
I'm going to like really out of the box for the same win rates.
I'm going to go like,
We got we got a quite a few here, buddy. What if there's like shake-o?
Did he ever play like shake-o as like a joke and like win the game or so? No, no, okay
We had some shake-os in the LCS and it was a joke. Can I ask where they are real junglers like where they
Okay, I'll give you a hint one of the one of them that is like or what was very meta
Is an AP jungler Rengar? Let me see Rengar here actually. AP jungler? He does have 100% win rate on Rengar
I got one.
He only played one time, but they won that game.
I'm going to say Brand.
If it's an AP jungler, 100% win rate, he was meta for a short time.
I guess.
Yeah?
Got 100% win rate on Brand and Zyra.
Also, see, there's a lot of things in here.
Nefiri, that's a good playable jungle too.
Carey jungle.
Okay.
I like it.
Get the hot dog in there.
There's a lot of stuff in here.
That's 100%.
What about J4?
Let me find Jarvan real quick.
That's what's locked in. We got the hot pot combo plus the Orianna shock wave. So we got the shocker chlism
Holy moly. Azalea is way better at that than you. You see, leave the name combining to him. No one day
I'm like that meme of like the mining for the diamond. I'm gonna get there. Okay, you're gonna keep trying. I will
I like it. I like it. You can't come here and say a lot about Genghis, but he never gives up. I don't give up
He's got heart unless it comes out of predicting for LCS
Yeah, I didn't give up. What are you guys? You guys are crazy
I will say the last game it does slightly reduce my chances of being correct with my three zero cloud non prediction
It does make that a little no no no if game one is right now. You already said yeah, it's really starts
Ah, part of my prediction was that they're gonna three zero while I'm casting. Oh
So we need to keep you on the desk
Yeah, it's only the games that I cast but they will three zero my my games noted
So Jarvan hot pot though you like spicy hot pot. I like spicy hot pot. They got it
You know, you know where spicy hot pot came from
Jarvan and rumble combo came from LPO. I believe it was MLXG
pioneering that one and
He's got spices in his name. Yeah, the food is
I
Don't know that one either now. I'm curious about that
I got a though. I got to say
I think it's slightly overrated. I like I like hot pot. I will go to hot pot, but
I think it's a little hot pot is great. I think I meant if anything accurately rated
You know what's better cable here at hot pot
That's too hard they're both both really good depends on where you go
I feel like I feel like you just upset that make my point
Reminding me this last
World that we did you know this last year in China. Yeah our photographer Colin
He he had some like local photographers that were working the event in Shanghai
And they took us through the best spicy hot pot. I've ever had in my life
It was actually life-changing.
Okay, so maybe I haven't had the right hop up.
Yeah, you have that.
I'm open to having my opinion changed.
I just, from the experiences that I've had, I'm like,
it's good, I like it, but I don't think it's like,
because I know people like you that say,
oh, it's so good, like it's one of the best things.
I will say it definitely depends on where you go,
so I'll give you that.
And probably the people you go with as well.
Gotta have some good company.
Some good company, and people that know what they're doing,
because I'll be honest, I don't really know what I'm doing
when it comes to adding degrees to the hop up.
They did like all the ordering for us. Yeah, I just looked the menu was
So I wasn't gonna be a lot of help
Yeah, but it was amazing. We're learning a lot about food today with me in a sale
We're in picking band. We're talking about salami sandwiches
You ever had a salami sandwich?
Salami and cheese
All right, let's talk about the draft because we actually have all champions like didn't we successfully talked about food?
while everyone was actually watching it.
I was going to say we should grab a Galio and go Galio comp,
but they did it and they rotated to mid lane.
You know, a lot of times you think it's going to go and do the rumble,
but you just go Kennick, Rookern, Kassante into the rumble.
So very tanky, very, very beefy frontline there for Furia.
And our spicy hot pot is going to get defended by a Galio ultimate.
That's like putting the lid on top of the spicy hot pot, I guess.
because the Gallio magic shield is going to be great.
Honestly, we have a lot of damage
if we can get a decent amount of gold.
But their team has a really strong baseline.
So we're going to have to make some plays, Kengis.
And it starts right now, baby!
It starts right now!
Oh, he's out of his seat!
Let me see you!
He's moving around!
Stand up chat stand up. I'll stand with you. I'll stand with you. We're standing today
Everybody's gonna salute. I'm gonna sit back down before the camera comes to us. That way you just see my torso above
Yeah, I actually I don't think they're putting it back on us, you know, they decided we got to change some stuff up
First thing we're gonna get these casters out of there
They're messing it up. That's what actually we were we were messing it up for for the teams the entire time
Think about it. If you really think about it, like logically, this is the first event that we've had the casters visible on the screen throughout the games.
And it's the first event. Yeah, the entire time. And it's the first event that, you know, we've had not picked up a game against Virio.
True. This is kind of crazy stuff. You're dropping knowledge bombs right now.
So what we need to do is the camera will come back to us eventually.
I think it will.
We need to hide.
I think you and I need to duck down and get out of frame.
We can go behind the couch.
I'm insane at hide and seek, by the way.
OK, here's a pillow for you.
I got a tibbers for me.
The only thing I've not thought about
is how do we cast the game now?
Because I can't see anything.
You got to angle it a little.
I got a little.
You got to get a little hole.
Yeah, lift his arm up or something.
I can see.
All right, there we go.
Labrador on a ward.
That's going to be a little too hard.
I think people just have to deal with us on screen.
This is all so good because you know like when you get stressed you need like something to come for you.
Yeah, I'll take the Gwyn.
They're too small. I feel like I'm like...
Ah, okay. Deep breaths also.
New beginnings, Kengis.
New beginnings. This is game one for you, Kobe.
It's new for me.
Yeah.
New territory.
Alright, 3-2. You know what?
I respect it. I'm sticking with my 3-0 though for Cloud9.
3-0 for Cloud9?
I will say...
Oh, well, I'm casting while you're casting while you cast and based on the rotation we've had so far
I mean it's got to start now. We can go up to one that means it won't work out if it's based on the rotation of
Actually, it wouldn't be I don't know I'll be on for fun because we do two and it's the other person was that so I'll do two now
I'll do two then we'll bring
And it would be me in a sale for that bring you in a sale. That's a scheduled loss. It's fine
Then I'll come back for the fifth game. Oh
Oh, yeah, that would be the fourth one out there. You're right. You're right. There we go. The map checks out.
The map is mapping. I'll do two now. I'll come back for Silver Scrapes. We got it in the bag. Although at this point, we should just leave you on.
Look at this, though! You haven't seen Lyon yet, okay? You guys, if you're getting sad, don't worry about it.
Our best team is going to be at first seed. We sent Inspire to MVP last year. He's the MVP this year, too, so...
So, uh, wait, wait till you see Lyon.
Rivalry continues, though.
I think it's really cool that we pulled Loud in the, the, the draw show for, for a stand
because America's Cup is a little microcosm.
It's a little, you know, fun tournament here to see who's able to get that boot camp
in the career during MSI.
But like, this is the real international tournament coming up and now there's going to be
a bigger rivalry between us going into it because of this.
I think people have the wrong mindset.
Like this tournament is for practice.
The literal prize for winning America's Cup is just more practice.
So that's how everyone's been approaching it, right?
We're practicing.
Here we go.
We're gonna practice a dive, maybe.
Oh, no, nobody's out.
We're just poking, you know.
We're practicing looking for dives.
We're practicing that as well.
This is like, you know, you practice for a test, you pass a test, and your reward
is like, okay, now you get the special practice, like the extra credit class.
That never happens.
happens. I don't know how things work. Vulcan looking for the dive now with
Blaber and Sven under the turret. They're looking at IU but he's out breeze away.
Sven's getting some damage down. Vulcan taking up his main as he camps.
There was one of them. We can't get a kill. Whoa! We got a little topsy turvy there.
A little risky. So IU, he broke the Karma tether. That was good.
Yep. Nice job from him. And Blaber, because the Karma tether is broken,
like Blaber tries to like EQ him and he's like, uh-oh. He dodged my EQ also.
And blabber used this flash to reposition the knockup, but that doesn't reposition your damage kengis
It just gives you a little tiny knockup
Nobody's scared of that if you don't have to you have to actually hit the EQ damage. You need the lance. Yeah, so there was no threat
Whoa
Nobody we didn't die a lot of times when you see
True you see some bad dives people die silver lining
Yeah, it turns out that a silver with only D blade honor attacking doesn't do that much damage
Yeah, you got to hit like your spells and stuff too with the feather into the EQ, that would have been good, but nobody died, again, sometimes if you're practicing and no one dies, that's probably good.
Yeah, that's one of the best-case scenarios, because again we're practicing, now next time it'll go better.
If you watched Dragon Ball Z, I feel like you did.
I did, I was a big Dragon Ball Z guy.
If you watch Dragon Ball Z viewers at home also, you know that if it doesn't kill you
It's gonna make you stronger every time they're fighting and practicing. That's
Stronger the more beat up they get it's gonna get stronger why things gonna happen to see nine
Why do I look like a guy that would have watched Shrek?
No, it's more about the way that you talk and all the things that you've ever said to me
You seem like valid watch was not bad thing. I watch Dragon Ball Z true
Drone it's a great show it teaches great lessons to kids too. Did you die keep working hard exactly?
Did you like Goku more or Vegeta more?
It says it says a lot about people how their mind works. It does I was so I grew up and I watched as a kid the first thing
I actually saw was the cell saga so I was a gohan gohan fan because he's cool in the cell saga
I know that like later on they don't do much with the character
But let's see maybe blabber's gonna have a bit of a Goku arc here get stronger as the first dive fail
But now he's in the dragon pit. He's getting contested by toots as flash away from Sven in the bot lane
And we walk away
Deesh the dragon
They got it
Thank you for at least is
Hey, we did yeah, we just used like two flashes off of both our carries
It's been an APA both had to flash that heck out of there and then Blabber had to EQ the
heck out of there too.
Ah, when did that happen to Dragon Ball?
Was there ever an arc where like- Everyone just runs away.
Everyone just runs away from the fight.
But remember Kengis, we didn't die.
We didn't die.
So we're gonna get stronger because of that.
More than you can say for the future timeline and in the self-suggestion.
How much do you want to bet?
9 never dies this game but anybody want to bet me I would rather I bet they
never died this whole time I bet nobody dies I like I like your enthusiasm
what's the bet you know what you gotta watch you gotta watch like a hundred
episodes of Dragon Ball Z oh other other person chooses the starting point
okay actually doesn't have to be like a lot of filler any Dragon Ball any
Dragon Ball okay true yeah I've never seen the original when the like
Goku's a kid and he still has the tail and like the villain is like the evil scientist in like
Whatever teach you some history. Yeah, I just started Gundam. I like the 1970s
Mobile suit Gundam. You're already doing some old stuff. It's old. Let me tell you it's it's pretty wobbly. It's it's janky
I'm trying to educate myself on some of these classics. I like it
So but but so if they go deathless, I'll take that one
Because like if they die at all then now I get to make you do something
But I feel like it's gotta be equivalent to like the chances of C9 not dying because chances that anybody dies pretty high
Yeah, it is so how about you're gonna also have to like give me a bunch of money. How about that?
And add that in? Yeah, I'm always down for that. I don't know if we're allowed to do that type of bet on stream.
Ah, true. Okay, okay.
But what I can say is that to be really nice for me to do for a while.
Dragonball a bridge any episode I choose a Dragonball bridge if you have anyitis a
pay flash and I think we're gonna answer really sooner Kobe that was not only
C9 dying but a member C9 being first blood I lost already lost already crazy
now I gotta figure out which episode of Dragonball bridge you're gonna watch I
think that's on you like you look really a punishment it's a good show
Yeah, I mean it's just a bet. It's not necessarily like a...
True.
Also, APA's not going to get stronger from that because he did die.
But he learned.
True.
He got the lesson. And he's still up in CS.
What can we do about this action here?
And Tuts didn't get the first kill. So Xanatos walking up, we have the...
Uh, Skedoll, and now a top two in the roast.
The hot pot not quite set up, but Blubber has cataclysm, now it goes down.
Top two suck in, they're all over him, he can pull Blubber over the wall.
It will be a one for one kill trade as Thana toast.
And Elise will roast down and make some toast out of top two.
I like that, yeah, you didn't mean to do that, huh?
I'm a natural one.
No, yeah, yeah, yeah, it actually just sneaks out of you, yeah.
Straight off the door, right there.
Thana toast.
Pinkin' some Pana toast.
Yeah.
Better than the other ones that I usually think of for this game.
That was pretty cool though from Gigo. You like that, you like that ult.
Because Cataclysm counts its terrain. Even though...
I think it used to be coded as minions. People say that all the time.
I think they have sense, like, updated it.
So you'd be able to auto-attack?
It might, it might still be. No, just because it's coded that way doesn't mean all the rules apply.
But yeah, nice to extend your Cassante ult. That was pretty sweet.
I don't get him under tower. Make it a one for one.
Pretty cool for them, but Blabber. He's back out and got a crab after, so he's still happy. All good.
Oh, is this a replay of mid lane? Yeah. Oh, we got a little brush creeper here.
Oh, so this was the first kill. So they saw Blabber, flag, and drag over us.
That's cool. That's like you're playing a spy game and you saw the guard pat down.
Yeah, you're waiting you're hiding in your little box. Yeah, you got your thermal got
That was pretty good. Oh my goodness. I like that crowd audio. Okay, here's the spicy hot pot into
Cataclysm wampo combo see you later, bro
So he goes through the cataclysm wall and because it's connected it goes over the entire wall
That is cool. It's all the way out of there. I did like that replay though. That's cool. Tattoo
Follow it. Oh, I thought he was playing the plan to spy game and he waited till a blabber the guards
Left left mid lane. So APA was like yo, I just had my jungler. Where did you come from?
Suddenly APA gets the alert sign over his head. Yeah in trouble
All right. Well
Let's make it a little bit more difficult for us because you know champs like we were talking about ah this fury a team
They're so beefy all these front liners and they got an early mountain dragon on top of it get some more resistances
They're getting some good. Oh wait it flash Pathmaker third and top of strike will land
But huh that was I think you go looking for more than he found
I mean you're able to get the big dude on
He was looking for more than that. I mean I guess if you land the stars you get a third of a strike
you all about guys practicing true true true it's all about practice baby limit
testing yeah that was not even like that what kind of limit was that that was
even close to a limit that was like baby step testing how my knees feeling yeah
all right well dragon number two that's theirs you know the Brazilian
community when Gigo does plays like that there's G god and G gone so that was a
a gig on play we saw but he didn't really like go anywhere either you know
it was observation he was kind of like geese is there go back to base as
blabbers coming up nice yeah I think it's not they had a charged up Q and his
old so I feel like if C9 wanted to practice on that play somebody was
gonna end up in the tower again I could just see it some so they knock back
Then again all did I think they practice that one before yeah, they didn't need the the reminder
True and chunked out there as the way it pushes in are you going for a back now?
Valkyrie is away from Vulcan as
Yeah, we haven't really caught up much on the bot side
It's just been a farm fest down there the actions been in the mid lane to top side of the map so far
And because of that fury and now have two dragons in their name plus two of the three grubs and gold even so you can say that's you
know better for c9 compared to some of the games have gone but better than being
down being down and we only died one time still you did lose yeah I did say
zero you want to make a new one to say they're not gonna die again all right
double or nothing double or nothing give me a double or nothing all right I'll
take that starting now c9 are not gonna die or lose any games well that you're
casting yeah well off to see if you're the blessing is a sail a cursor is there
is it just the fact that you work here because I get the two of you are there
do you can't sit around I'm curious how that's gonna work well if my dough work
that I'm just gonna keep trying again a new one I'm gonna move the goal post
okay that's usually a good place to be I want to see some more than a toast
yes can we get some fan of toast cam he's got a roast some people you need
the roast a couple more. What's your favorite thing to put on toast? Is it just like a peanut
butter? Peanut butter. Okay, there we go. Peanut butter's good. I like a good jam. Jam's
good. Now we got like a raspberry jam. I'm down for sugar. Yeah. But it's like, it's
like a fruity sugar. You know what's really underrated? Just good old fashioned butter.
Yes. Just straight butter by itself. Absolutely. Butter by itself is great. Or were you like
a household? Also it's not that bad for you. You know, I think it was really
demonized because uh there's a big war on fat in general and cholesterol yeah it's actually
not that bad for you.
It's not getting struck down here he's fine.
Yeah it was the it was the war on big on butter from from big margarine.
Yeah and margarine is like way worse all kind of crazy chemicals in margarine.
Yeah it's crazy.
Can't trust what you see on a nutrition label.
You probably shouldn't take any health advice from a league of legends stream.
Nah.
Especially with Oswaget.
I think the
Especially with us on it actually a brass was here that it's questionable honestly
I think pretty much everybody else. Yeah, maybe we're the best ones
Some of the best we are missing is ill though to do the sales credit
He's probably the biggest foodie on on the team although be there's been a foodie mean that you eat healthy
No, it's usually well usually if it tastes really good this extra butter and fat and salt
We just established butters good. Yeah, so we we can't it was overly demonized
Okay underrated thing on toast though butter with just a little sugar sprinkled on and some cinnamon sprinkled on
Have you ever had that before?
It's like a no
Cinnamon toast cinnamon toast
Okay, well and think of that but just like, you know
Oh, team T-Moose and Minto Scrunch.
The original?
That home, yeah, homemade.
Homemade, that's a better way to put it.
As right now, it's a fight for the Herald.
Furia are going to back off from set fights.
United Nation 1-4.
Tuts was ready for a Galio ult follow-up.
XD?
OK, we're getting some APH chatter.
This is good.
Hold on, it's a little disconnected from the play.
When did that happen?
That's a good point.
I need the timestamp.
I'm going to choose to believe that that was when the refs told them we were talking about toast
Well I got an update it was live.
From the Herald teleport coming in now from the Gallio topside here
So Toots is ready for the flank C9 or opting into the pinster as Toots is from the flanking angle
Plans a punch knockup on the Santa Toast and he is turning into Toots
two toes, chain CC locked down as JoJo's ult will follow it up, hold back, and he flies,
we'll go down, Thanatos still alive for a long time, but we'll go down as C9 run through
in their jungle. Furia pick up two kills, they'll get Blaber, they'll get Thanatos,
and now they will look back at the Herald.
Yeah, see we're in the timeline of the power spike of like the one item like earlier
beefier squad that we were talking about for Furia, so Furia did a good job.
They utilize their pretty good timer for them to attack on with their one items, go for the
rip valid fight.
Just straight walk in there and all he had to do was grab one person.
When Thanos got locked up and the equalizer went down, then Blabber decided, oh maybe
we can make that spicy hot pot.
But if you go in, it's so hard to get out.
He's trying to cataclysm and then just eek you back out.
But you're insuppable during cataclysm, but you're not insuppable afterwards and
You can't CC it immediately.
Yeah, good chase down here from Furia.
And they're working on their, like, you have so much raw power
here with the squad.
When you've got plenty of damage with Trinity Force
and Nami for your Korki, just use these Bruisers,
the other three Bruisers, to walk up and force plays.
And they're going to keep stacking dragons, Kengis.
And in a moment like that, you'd
hope that Sven can try and get some ricochet damage in.
But he's not even two items silver yet.
So he doesn't do that much.
Yeah, we need more time.
Anytime.
They do great on these one items.
Yeah, but we're gonna have you know what some damage later and maybe we can
something somebody up. I don't know really practicing
playing from like even the behind and linking that's that's what this tournament has been a practice of this fan
Getting peppered by these rockets. Yeah, shield up by Vulcan there, but I mean see if he actually gets a second item on this
Reset because that is three dragons now to fury. They're gonna drop the Herald
Get more gold in the mid lane
And they're in a good spot right now.
I mean, ideally, we could fight Dragon number four.
Ideally.
Ideally?
We've been practicing.
Like how we just keep going back practicing.
Infinity Edge will be done by then.
It will be done by then.
He didn't get it now.
I'll make a new bet.
Buy the third or the fourth Dragon.
Simple or nothing.
Oh, they did die more, right.
Also, when I had said that we had only died once,
you didn't call me on it, but we had died twice.
I respect that.
I've just set you up, you know.
I've been told, you know,
you want to make your co-cast look good.
Either you let it go and either one, I'm okay with.
Yeah, yeah.
Is it where I do admit I was looking at C9 side,
seeing the one, and I just got a little confused
in the brain.
But I could have gotten away with it.
I'm an honest guy.
I'll admit that.
I'd cast live in front of everybody watching.
I like it all right so new bet we're not gonna die any more from starting now
That's the fun thing about oh actually
Anymore I'll say like our front line can die but our back line is gonna stay alive
So then it doesn't blabber they can die as many times as they want
But the rest of the squad's gonna stay safe
Toby really is the meme of the guy mining for the diamonds. You're really just waiting for that big hit
I'm gonna keep on going. Yeah, we just keep on changing for what it's worth. I believe in you
Your face
Dig your enthusiasm as Todd to taking away the Raptors
So it's gonna be a tough angle for C9 to get back into this game
They got three minutes for that dragon a soul fight
But like they're losing their jungle fury are using this gold lead to kind of control the map in a oppressive manner
It's all about perspective, Kengis.
This is merely an opportunity to practice retaking territory that has been lost.
And whenever you're retaking territory like this, you know Fury has way more vision than everybody rotating down.
So you have to safely move up and you just look for angles where you can have multiple people, DPS the same target.
And Fury already got everything they wanted out of our jungle.
They actually took the whole thing and left behind a bunch of wards.
a bunch of words but you know we're practicing we're practicing retake right now also almost
looked like we would actually engage on to touch you right there probably good we didn't
because there were a lot of members of fury around and we're watching out last game I'm
sure you have a similar reaction being a zeal with c9 over sense on the top lane fight
uh I didn't I was thinking this is practice so they practice and they're gonna grow from it
Yeah, we'd like to have a growth mindset on the LCS couch. Yep
One of the I mean the big things. Yeah, obviously
You know it was practice that we won't we won't go over the changes because you got to save that after the series done
Yeah, yeah, while you're in the series got it
Change mindset there's gonna be a lot of really good review opportunities for further practice from this game
Yeah, that we can maybe take a look at in the client afterwards true so I this is this is a win-win all good
It's the one and see not have not died since the last time you said that nobody would die
See not so also positive trajectory
We're trending in the right direction point now
Jojo is doing the Zerry point
Like like on camera. Yeah, have you seen that email before it? It's like a face
It's like, ugh, she doesn't like what she's looking at.
She's pointing at.
But it always points to the side.
So in that instance, when he popped it up,
it was pointing to it.
Can we get one into the C9?
I don't know if we have that power.
But I'm sure he was thinking, you know,
he's pointing at us.
You think he's disgusted by C9?
That's crazy.
Well, they have a chance.
30 seconds, we'll see.
They have a chance, yeah,
to make some magic happen here.
30 seconds to let dragon soul fight C9 are in the mid length and a toast is in the bot lane against toots
So the rumbles now walking back and getting a single have the hot pot combo
Focus on this can we kill corki?
Can we keep our front line alive as well as blabberfly your drags back on the key?
Go big game. We're done with the kassad day period not able to answer it back as a PA forces Valkyrie out of IU
Furious top laner heavily chugged back saw teleport teleport
Tatu's gonna start with the dragon and we still have toots on the flank as Galio. We don't see it. Oh, no now
We actually is in the mid lane. Oh man. This is dangerous also, okay
So because I'm there's gonna teleport in be ready C9 be ready
That's is there already Tatu's jumping in blabber chunked out get a hit by the rockets of IU
And now Tatu goes in for the engage on the blabber flashes away does not get a hit by the Nami Ultimate C9
Kitey back towards the mid lane, but then a toast does not have to be behind him yet
now flashed with Vulcan with Void Geedio. Furia have retaken the river and C9 are down multiple flashes
and it looks like we're practicing running away further as IU will push back Sven even more. C9
cannot get back to the dragon. It will be Tatu taking it alone for Furia. So that is something
that we have practiced before. Yeah. We set up for the dragon. Oh man. This is so rude.
He's just not giving us any space.
Furia will get the dragon and they'll even chase C9 into their own jungle,
picking up a kill.
They'll get the dragon and they'll get the Vulcan as well.
Honestly, okay.
So this is something that they've practiced before this tournament.
And we still had the issue with like,
you push someone out but you know they're gonna teleport back.
Oh, APA is getting some practice.
Oh! Flash to the Blast cone.
Good practice.
Alright, Baron. Baron could test practice.
Shot was available with Cataclysm. We can still find a crazy engage,
but Toots has been so clinical on these flanks so far.
He goes all to buy in space for Fiora right now.
Wlapper can't get into the pit.
Sven's now walking up. Watch for the Sivir damage.
The two items on the Sivir, he's going to have to do a lot of work.
the will go down, starts roasting up some health bars of Furia, but they can just reposition around it,
taking away JoJo, now turns on the plate, Wlapper goes in like a drags back out, you already got the kill!
And Sven, still trying to get some damage in there, but with no jungler on C9,
Furia can now look to start hitting the Baron, the shot went into the eye, but the Gallywalt
will keep him safe. Sven trying to try back with the flash to safety, get those autos down,
Rook Shane around, Furia trying to not group up to allow that damage as Tatu stays on the Baron,
APA's trying to pepper him in the pit as well as Giga goes all out, now goes the flash with the taunt from Toots.
Fury against the Baron, Fury against the team fight again, and Fury are making fools of C9 again.
Honestly, you know, good practice even though we all died. It's not going to make us stronger. Fury is nicely done.
That's Dragon's ult, that's Baron Kengis.
They have not dropped a game to North America.
I've not dropped the game to North America, Kobe.
They have not, and they're not looking like they're going to do it either.
They're on the precipice of 7-0.
The third seed from C.B. Low against second and third seed from LCS.
Yes, we have the excuses, the jet lag, the travel time,
the warming up to a new environment.
It's all talk.
The action on the rift is Furia picking up win after win after win.
Oh, yeah.
And now it's looking like another.
Oh, yeah, they're better.
So anyway, this one, I mean, Blabber goes down because he does the thing again where he's trying to cataclysm and eat you out.
But they don't have anything to cough about with it. You know, Rubble on his down here. They can look at him. Yeah, he cataclysm's on top of you.
He tries to eat you out, but, you know, Tux was pushing in on Gallia. I mean, at this point, they know, you know, our chances are really low since we, they have Keptex already.
You know, we don't have a lot of chances, but still it's like,
now you know how jungle, the rest of the guys are like,
well, I guess you stay around and be, you know,
messing around and find out.
But, Furia, they had lots of stuff.
You do find out, yeah.
They had lots of some of the health bars,
but they have Chemtex all in,
and the jungler, still a lot too, so.
Yeah.
And I just got to say, from the,
where we were last year, do you remember last year,
Kobe split one and we had the finals with CBLOL rather LTA south
up against LTA north.
They took a game off of all the LTA north representatives.
They did not win a series.
They won a single game in all four matches.
Then fast forward a little bit split to we got some inter
conference scrims and practice.
Some of the CBLOL teams came up and actually got some
experience up here playing against our teams in a
Scrim environment so that by the time we came to summer
They actually are able to get a series against shop fire belly
It looks so much more competitive as a region as teams representing this house and now a year
Can be edited you got as I'm hearing a gonna be talking about the MVP
Yeah, we don't have a lot of time to tell him.
Yeah, I know he's working hard.
But, I mean, shout out to CB Lowell.
Shout out to the improvement of these teams.
I gotta say, it hurts as an LCS fan and representative, but...
You didn't actually hear me, right? I'm using the talk back.
I did hear you during that one, really.
Yeah, maybe your finger slipped a little bit.
A little peek behind the scenes for everybody at home.
Sometimes you talk to our producers.
We have to do it.
It's okay. It's okay.
That was on talk back, but again, I am just impressed with how much this region has improved in one calendar year
Agreed. Yeah, and you know how they did that a lot of practice
There you go. See yeah, there there we go
Practice it helps
See nine will have a base defense ahead of them. Maybe they can find another
Opportunity for a miracle. Oh, there's an opportunity for it
But miracles are called miracles for a reason that are hard to pull off.
The Giga just TP from mid.
That seems like a very short range TP. Interesting.
Yeah, that's fine. They don't need it.
They're so far ahead, they've cracked the base.
Two inhibitors down, so they're going to come up.
Don't tell the older dragon in a minute.
Sometimes you want better practice, so you start throwing stuff away.
True. I wasn't really paying attention, so I'm just trusting that that's what happened.
sure I just saw a teepee from Kigo go from mid lane to the wave but either way
yeah they want to practice like not having teleport on their top laner as
they have to solo in the 8k goal lead yeah be like ah man it's gonna be harder
for us to get that objective that wins games yeah super hard 30 seconds to see
that was the emo inside that time right I did not actually I'm emo blind
Hell, he's right in the middle of the screen.
Nothing else happening.
That's one of those things you got to know about me, Kobe.
I'm like notoriously emote blind.
When I spot one, I'm so proud of myself,
because I'm like, I noticed that one.
OK.
It's because you're so locked in on the gameplay.
So locked in.
You only care about the pinnacle of gameplay execution.
I need to practice watching for emotes more.
Yeah.
Interesting.
Yeah.
Something like it's a gross opportunity for me.
I see.
As Red Buff stolen away by Taty right here,
C9 are approaching and Geego another flank angle on the Kastate.
Thanatos is a little behind the play as Geego's coming in flash from Vulcan to get away from the Nami ultimate as the Blabber's already down.
Geego on top of Vulcan, throws out the all out, oh still alive! Not enough damage from the three items ever to punch through on health bar.
Furia will just kill Blabber and back off towards the Elder Dragon.
Nobody's killing Geegod.
What's a what's a king? What's a geeking to a key?
What's a dana toast to a key God?
I think you got likes a toast with butter with butter. You think a classic butter butter. I
Can see that I
Can see that a lot. It's good. It's good as long as you don't have too much
Everything in moderation Kings
Well, what's too much butter?
Like on toast.
I don't think I've ever seen a piece of toast with too much butter.
That's why I put it on toast, because you can't really put too much on toast, or else it's going to taste really bad.
It's also just going to fall apart, right?
Yeah.
I feel like there's a material component here.
Yeah, self-limiting, I think.
Yeah, that's good.
There's got to be an engineering term for this that I'm unaware of.
Well, what's the term for go next?
Well, actually, that is the term.
Yeah, well or or you can say GG nobody really says GN because that would be good good night. Yeah, but like go next would be like
But nobody says that
Yeah, so it's get heavy GG
Good game
GLHF that one's good luck have fun
Recently learned earlier yesterday as a 30 year old man that FF's does not mean for Fitz
And it actually means something else
I'm just gonna leave everyone at home with that cliffhanger.
Oh, do you not know what it means?
I can't say.
You gotta tell the chatters.
Oh, something you can't say.
For Frick's sake, I think I can say that.
Yeah, that's apparently what FF stands for, Enormy Culture.
He go under the turret right now, and they already got one.
That's FFF.
Yeah, FFs.
FFs.
How do you say FFs?
FFs.
with an S afterward.
All right, well, I think we're getting the point across here.
FS for C9, Fiora crushing them underneath the Nexus turrets
and are going to go, whoa, in the grand finals of the inaugural
America's Cup.
Undefeated still against the LCS.
Nope, I thought it was FS, like 4-5, like 4-5, 4-5.
And then my Normie sister texted me.
That was it, that was it.
And I was like, how did my Normie sister know what this meant?
And then I learned that day.
Need something else.
Well, how about we just go all the way back
to the beginning, then?
I don't know.
There's not really a thing I want to go back and watch
in this game, so.
We want to watch the practice of C9.
Let's go watch some of the practice here.
We can watch what the Zerri was pointing at.
If you want to look back at that,
was that IU that was throwing up the whole Zerri?
Well, they already did a good replay of this one.
This is kind of cool though.
We can see that there's a pre-existing ward here.
So he saw APA put that, well, let's pause.
Because this is critical.
This is something they didn't,
I don't think they showed in the replay.
I don't think they went all the way back
and showed this, this is kind of crazy.
Look at this.
Oh, the ward's spotting Bladder first.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
You didn't see him flash?
Are you here, bro?
Wait, watch this, watch this, watch this.
Okay, we look at it from blue perspective.
Yeah, I was grabbing my water bottle.
Yeah, what was happening here?
I think so APA goes and puts a ward here.
This war though isn't gonna is is spotted.
So tattoo is right here.
He's gonna flash this wall.
Look at him.
Yeah, look at him.
Look at this.
Boom, what a beast.
Whoa!
Wait, that's actually crazy.
So they showed, when we showed the replay,
we showed it from the front here.
And we're like, oh, look,
tattoo is staring him down.
Dude, he's this guy.
You saw that email, right?
I saw that email, yes.
But the coolest part is that
since they saw APA go over here,
he's like, oh, APA put a word in here.
And that's actually the correct spot.
If you put it right here, then you can see the hug.
But Tatchy knows that, so he flashes here,
and he's like, this guy's not gonna see anything.
That's crazy.
And then he waits, look at the patience.
Oh my goodness.
I just stepped out, wait, how close was that to seeing?
He had just stepped out a second,
and Bliver was like right here.
Oh my God, but he doesn't see him.
Yeah, yeah, let's see it from Bliver's POV.
He comes back and never sees.
But we know that Tatchy had just stepped out.
That's great and then the rat the flash over here. Yeah, they've been spinning that all tournament long
I gotta do some research on
This must completely blindside APA you have a control ward there your jungler just walked by
There unless he specifically flashes that wall
There's like no window that he's gonna get through there without you seeing so that must have completely broken APA's ankles
Yeah, so they saw it here come here. They just saw him there like oh he put it in here somewhere. Yep. That says that's awesome
Smart anyway cool stuff. Let's take a look at the PG B for that game post game
Yeah, a lot of damage from Sven as a server
you're gonna be ricocheting around but not enough as we saw it couldn't even get through the health bar of
Gigo by the end of the game and
Despite the fact that these early to mid games have been going relatively even
It's this area executing much better when it comes to the team fight setups like you saw back to back to back like
Gigo or tuts finding these
Flank angles on C9 and pincering in on practice our team fights for sure
We got practice our team fights also, and you said you heard me talking back to the producers about saying G
God for a player the game
Did you hear the first time that I talked and I had originally said? Oh tattoo. I did not know
Okay, so that time I was holding the button
down to anywhere, and the second time I wasn't.
Well, I, you know, Gi-God is going to get it
because, you know, the second time takes party.
He was a beast on the Cassante.
He was able to get the ultimate on the blabber
through the tower, you know,
putting out a ton of pressure in these teamfights
and walking up.
But now that I'm, now that I just went back
and saw that replay from Tattoo,
I want to change my mind again, go back to Tattoo.
Even though it's already been submitted
And G. God gets it. Honorable mentions for a tattoo. That was that was sick. Just flashing a wall
and then waiting there in the brush patiently missed twice on the cast. Happy. You were able
to catch it there though, because that was a really cool moment and incredibly impactful.
Again, that first blood and notably now you have to watch an episode of Dragon Bullet Bridge
that I'm going to have to ask for you and send your way. So curate one for me. Pick one out.
I'll find one out for him. Pick a good one out. That's going to be it from us here for
for the post-game of game number two,
backs against the Walthy area are still undefeated.
But before we throw it to a break,
a reminder that the LCS spring split begins April 4th
and they get their available March 10th.
That's right around the corner, guys.
You gotta set your calendars,
gotta make sure you pick up your tickets
as they come available.
It's gonna be C9 versus the Lion
to kick things off for spring split.
So make sure if you're local
or if you wanna play on some travel,
come say hi, come hang out in the studio.
It's an awesome time.
You can high five Kobe.
I'll see you there, Genghis, and I'll see you there, Chad.
We'll see you there, and we'll see you after the short break
for game number three.
.
Welcome back to America's couple. We're going to see if fury
I'm looking around right now. Yeah, exactly. This is there. I did from starting now. We're
going to be undefeated. Yes. Absolutely. If you're looking to triple sweep LCS, not
a single game in three series, but starting now, we're going to sweep them back. Uh huh.
It's called like it's a super mega reverse sweep, if you reverse sweep like this and it's
like a bonus for you know sentinels is like high five you did it for us too.
Exactly.
They're at their most secure.
Yeah.
This is when the greater the heights the further they fall you know.
Tournament point right now.
Yeah.
They're on tournament point on the precipice of 808 owing us but we're going to reverse
sweep.
Jokers probably think they're favored after winning seven games in a row.
But no, we've been practicing. We've been practicing this whole time
We've been practicing you thought you thought our objective setups were bad
You thought we were just giving you all these teamfights and dragons and stuff. No, no mind game
You'd be correct we have been but it was intentional I've intentionally trained
I've intentionally lost every dragon team fight lane and
and individual outplay.
Yeah.
And you probably think I suck.
Yeah, you probably do.
Yeah.
You'd be wrong.
All right.
In my heart of hearts, I know that is true.
Okay, so, you know, deep breaths, everybody.
Let's give them some smiles on those faces.
There we go.
Crack some jokes, dog.
Yeah.
What you saying right now?
All right, guys.
I'm getting in there, guys.
I'm still subbing in.
So you know what?
Me and Nick are gonna sub it.
Well, he's kind of like us.
It worked for 100 thieves.
Yeah, it did.
Dokla subbed himself in.
Dokla was a coach, yeah.
Maybe it's time for Dom to mix things up.
And Nero plays a lot too.
Yeah, I think Nero also.
Because Nero plays.
Does he play support?
Yeah, I believe he's probably the best.
The only person who's doing well at all.
Sure.
Well, what about a Nero off-roll?
It probably can't be that bad either compared to what
we're seeing.
Plus seven in a row.
Yeah, what we've been doing.
Let's try it.
Mix it up.
Did you get in there?
Get in there.
Yeah, let's get in there too.
Honestly, even with the lag, we'll just play from here with the lag.
I think we have a good try.
I think it's only like maybe 200 ping or something.
Yeah, we could use the ADPC.
We can get in there.
I can use this little touchpad.
Oh, you know what?
And we can just be a bottom lane.
I don't play AD carry, but you know, we could be a bottom lane.
That's fine.
I believe in you.
Yeah.
I mean, they won with the Gossip ADC.
Yeah, I'm sure.
I'll play Sennie, you play Volibear.
Yeah.
Oh!
That sounded kind of nice, right?
That sounded kind of nice.
That sounded nice.
All right.
Okay, next game, if they need us, if they need us next game though.
But this game is the one where it all turns around, so they won't need us.
We're feeling comfortable, we're feeling relaxed.
Yeah, we are.
So are Cloud9.
So are Clouds, I was going to say, so are Furia, we're relaxed.
Well, maybe everyone's a little relaxed, it's a relaxing game.
Alright, so a little relaxing scion into your Renekton.
Thanatos renectin though if you're gonna have a renectin into scion I think both of us are on the side of like
Oh, I'd rather have the sign, you know lose some CS whatever then you get this mega sign tank for later
But if you were gonna switch sides and you were gonna be a renectin believer
Benetos is your guy I think
Or keen
Let's stick to our players
North America
Key on any side pretty much.
Honestly, let's put Key on AD carry too.
I'll be kind of down.
Alright, we got a little Taliyah.
A little Taliyah.
Hey, APA! One of our best champs right here, Taliyah. I love it. Let's go!
Do we go Vi?
Uh, I mean Vi does. Vi can also help Densing Blow Shred Sion in addition to, you know,
assassinating people with Taliyah combo.
But we don't do that. We do, we do said Wani.
I think you would think with this with the said one you're getting the the stun stacking. Yeah question is
If you don't put that if you're gonna do this though, and you don't put sign in the dirt
I feel like we're in trouble. Yeah, did you know that kengis didn't know what ffs means?
I thought that was crazy. I thought that was a bit. I was one of those things where I was like, I don't believe
I thought that he was just saying that he didn't know what ffs means
One of those things where I was like, yeah, I don't believe I thought that he was just saying that he didn't know what ff means
And I was like, well, if that means because he said it doesn't mean forfeit and I was like, well, it doesn't what does it mean then?
But he was there my ffs
And then I was like, okay, but he doesn't even know where he is. Yeah, I got really good. I got
Okay, well Ari is always really good at to believe to Leah one of the really good answers
Use your fox fire you can threaten a lot of different angles here
Especially was the hen jungle to follow you know charm flashes into
Come on, let's call it Cubby. Call it by its correct name. What is it?
The hunger the hunger thank you. I appreciate that is it going to be the last thing that we see in America's cup
I hope not
The dreaded return. This is just a forefront tournament. You know, well, it's a practice
It's for practice really so it's for fun, and it's for practice practice is fun
Yeah, sometimes and some of us need practice more than others. Yes
Really why is the boot camp going to the to fury if they went?
We need to practice the losers. It's us
What's up with that?
They look plenty practice. Yeah, I think they need less practice the rich get richer here
Yeah, it's coming. It's coming soon.
Hey, do you want to flex the scion now? That'd be fun.
They could. They don't need to, because it's fine to be in a tough way.
It might not be the hunkle, but it would be really cool.
It could be Zen top, and they could pick a jungler here.
Honestly, you can put anything with Senna if you put the Senna support.
I think it's going to be a good idea.
If you put anything with Senna, if you put the Senna support, I think it's valid.
Put anything down there with it.
I feel like-
What's your funnest matchup with Senna?
To pair with Senna?
Oh, I used to actually really like a Cho'Gath Senna, I thought that was pretty good.
Oh, I like that.
And Mundo Senna's pretty fun.
That's a good CC chain too, and you have Burst for kills too, yeah?
I like that.
Yeah, that's cool.
That's a really good one.
I actually went Senna, went Senna, bot lane started getting popular.
I thought that was going to come out, because that was one I had actually been playing
a lot with some of my friends.
Especially if you go AP show
You have you have one thing you just get the easelow through the minions and then you WQ and then you root amount of it
Like your CC chain is actually nice. I did some wild stuff. I did a lease in with it. It was really fun
Oh, that's awesome fun. Yeah, I dash in right next to them. Yeah
Watch out
Yeah, exactly. I got my shield. I got the center healing over the top
Yeah, I was on a kick a while ago where I was just playing no matter what role I got because I usually play Phil
I was just playing clad so I was playing clad jungle is playing clad support. I was playing clad top. I was playing clad mid
It's a really fun champ. I will say I think it's complete trash. I was playing some clunkle
It is very slow when you get dismounted. Let me tell you I
Raptors are dangerous. I did I did a couple times because I saw some like YouTube short or something that popped up
I mean about some guy that was like some clad
Raptors got hands. I'll tell you that much and I just decided this it's trash. I'm out of here
They only play three games total.
It's Sion Bot.
Yeah, they did it.
They did it.
They did do the swap, and so you get your gun.
Nice.
Yeah, as soon as you see the setting, you're like, okay.
Okay, buddy, I'm on to you.
Also, Ayi's done it before.
So...
He beat us with the Yasuo.
Yeah.
He was good Yasuo, but doesn't he have the mechanics to pull off a Sion?
You know?
Yeah, he does.
Ayi's got some good mechanics.
I'm down.
He's showing me enough.
He's showing me enough he's got he's got the mechanics for the shot. I mean you say that and you got a little smirk
But like they shout angle for shouting the minion at them
It's take some strong vocal chords and some good aim
Because oh yeah, if people I'm just assuming that people know the combo because we did it
We did it in LCS also for the combo is so fun
The Senate you can put your root on the minion and then sign will shout the minion at them and then just boom
You shoot the root over to them and you get the get the root so the minion dies
It auto procs the root. So if you eat it right when it's really low health
It's an instant route it's the kill. Yeah, and it's really quick. And so it's just super fun
You can take setup you can just use it to get your own damage down
Yeah on them
But that part is fun and then also you get a scion and a Senate later and
And Sion still gets to farm quite nicely and still stack up your soul furnace and send us souls off the ground the soul synergy
Yeah, that is a lot of soul synergy
I mean think about that because like Senna's trying to pick up souls for herself
But Sion wants to burn them all up in his own soul furnace. Are they like different kinds of souls that there?
Are they splitting the souls like they're on half-sees?
Well, I think you just get like double value because Sion gets the value when you kill them and then Senna
And then they pop out the pole the soul so stop still pops out
So how how is that possible to burn up a soul and still get a Senate one? No realism. That's on unfair
These video games every minion have two souls. I
Don't know. I guess they're just getting a lower quality soul, you know, yeah
Well, we're about to lose the game at level one. Okay. Well, if you lost the trade at level one, but it's all good
he go back. Minions spawn really fast now so it's not all good but.
So I'm surprised he's actually basing. That's surprising. I mean he is gonna be able, he's
just gonna ghost, so he's gonna ghost and drag it back. I wanna watch Midland, I wanna
see how many minions he loses. He's gonna cruise along the walls, use his passive too.
I mean you get some homeguards, you have a ghost, you get, you know, but he is gonna
lose I think. I would assume he's losing some melee as far as I can see. Yeah,
I think so.
Still though, all good.
All good.
We're practicing a scenario where,
oh my goodness, Tattoo's doing some fun stuff here.
He's doing Raptors and then he queues over the wall.
So he died as the ward.
There's no red indicator that they saw
that that ward is there, but again,
I think you should always assume
there are the, the phalite positions,
very high probability that they're being warded.
So he circumvents the very common defensive warding there.
It's just super smart.
I mean, I just think the Brazilian teams here
have had really good level ones.
They're doing a lot of cheesy level ones
where they're running out.
And I think it's super smart to mix this in.
Too many teams that are just defaulting
and so many pros that have talked to are like,
well, level ones are dead.
You can't do anything anymore.
Minions are too fast.
And they are showing that it's not true at all.
They double warded his camps.
Now they have a ward here.
You steal his blue and his gromp.
So, BlaBur's gonna get over here and be pretty homeless, and I don't think there's gonna be any recourse, really.
I don't know, you could try to cross map and do something else, but I feel like that is just hot too, out to a nice early game lead.
Mid lane's already going really bad, because if you had to base level 1 and use Ghost...
I was gonna go look for him, and they both have Smite. I don't know if BlaBur even gets...
I didn't know if he gets there in time for the Smite fight, even. Ah, he's gonna go mid instead.
Okay, let's see if we can get something here. They need to, it feels like. Nice Q flash in.
So this is going to be a flashing back and they decided to shove the can they get first blood so
I will that's the first time in this series. I feel like it is first first blood first first blood
I
Will say if I am not to I'm yelling at to us
As a jungler when you can do his game you counter jungle this guy and we saw him
Yeah, we saw him ten seconds ago five seconds ago. Yep. I'm screaming
I'm like, this guy can't do anything except gank mid.
Well, come find me.
Oh, now they're going to re-gank.
APA is really low on mana, but this should work.
He has no flash.
We'll see.
Now are they going to be able to catch up to him?
Blavver there.
And he should be dead again, just seismic shove off
of the stun.
And that is going to be a dead toots,
but does he die the orbis?
That's a nice side step.
So a couple of good kills.
I'm fully with you.
All toots I had to do is play to the other side of the lane.
You don't even have to ward it.
You know the only way Blavver could do anything
is ganking you.
And you just play to the bottom side of the map.
And if you walk through, there's no way you die.
You gave him the only angle to not be screwed
by this early game.
So really bad from Tuts and then he runs up
and dies again and now he has no TP.
NA appreciates you, Tuts.
Shut up.
Yeah, shut up.
Shut up.
My boy, my boy, Tuts.
He teleport back as Lava says, great.
I'm going to finish up this crab.
Get right on over there.
I'll see you soon, buddy.
See you in hell, Tuts.
It's also, from Tutsis perspective, this one's less egregious, because you don't put it back and then you want to punish.
Yeah, this one you just blame your jungle for.
Yeah, yeah, he's just, and Tattoo says, oh hell no, you're muted.
I take no responsibility for this one.
You're muted and my loyalty to Cloud9 is the strongest, but I'm also loyal to junglers on any side.
So, Justice for Tattoo, Justice for Tattoo here, like, you're mid lane or trolled you, bro.
You did troll him very hard.
You trolled you.
But I'm down for that.
Yeah, not only did we get first blood. We got second blood, Kobe. Also, I don't think that's happened either. Remember, I bet now is when we're going to start the cloud nine undefeated run. Yeah, we're not never been wrong. Never. Never. No, this is the same bed. It's continuing. You haven't been wrong yet. Yeah, because you're doubling down every time. Yeah, that's
Must be up to like eight or times. Yeah, 16. Yeah, so I'm gonna get a big
payout. The cash out is gonna be crazy on that bet. Holy. Yeah, that's gonna be nice.
Nobody's nobody's gonna see this one coming.
All right. Well, rest of the game, we got then it does on his renektin always feels very comfortable.
And honestly, when you get to see much of the bottom lane, I wonder if they've been doing
in the combo? I will say I honestly don't even care about the drafts anymore because I feel like
C9 has just been so bad in the teamfights that it's just down to the point. You have no trust.
No, no. Trust has been broken. It's been broken. It's been shattered. You gotta build that trust
back up. Yeah, but I mean that in not even a flaming way. I just mean it. I just want to see C9
play well right and if they play well then I believe they can win regardless but
right now draft advantage just don't really mean anything because I feel like
they're not executing we also never even touched on it. Finsos is playing
ignite reacted by the way. Yeah he's gonna come ignite somebody right now.
Alright JoJo is here first though they have the extra members C9 and 3v4
they're gonna go in for here trying to actually burst down Tatsu they're
able to do it flash of the wall so Dominus still taking bulky now rise
Gigo flashes the ball the needlework is just gonna headbutt back
APS is here. Now Jojo's in trouble. It's a double for that. It doesn't mean we interrupt the recall from Toots.
Surely Cloud9 can't throw this game right to me. Tell me now. Don't lie to me, Colby.
They're building you back up. They're building you back up, buddy. Okay.
Just when you thought you were out. They pull you back in.
you least expect it I told you all day from now all day in the games that they
went oh my goodness I mean that was kind of crazy stuff from curia going to
go ahead first into it I liked it Zahen as you know this champion you have it
takes a long time to stack up your passes so especially early game we talked
about the Stunlock where Mernectin said, Loni, it's there.
And they pull it off really nicely.
There's those flashes to buy time.
So once Vulcan is able to arrive,
he sees the combo here, stacks up his E stuns,
so then he can just Q flash on both of them,
and hit the E stun.
They pick up the R.E. Kill as well.
Vulcan kind of spurting once again.
You know what my takeaway here?
We need more Canadians.
Did you see our reaction though?
That was us.
That was us for seven games in a row.
How does it feel, buddy?
Well, we just saw how it feels.
They're just like us for real.
Yeah, they're just like us.
Looks like they're not, because they're still going to be 7-1 even if we win this game.
We're just like them for like two minutes.
Yeah, they're just like us for small doses.
Yeah, they're tiny, tiny.
They're tiny amounts of time.
Alright, well, Dragon.
Have we ever gotten a Dragon before?
Question.
Yes, we have.
Thanks for answering.
Have we leased for the enemy team probably more than we've taken for ourselves. Yeah, definitely
So definitely more generosity one of the cornerstones of the five
Legends team be generous and be grateful for all the little things that you do have yeah appreciation
I'm grateful for APA. Wait a second
That was a quick cleanse. Oh
It's a little it's a little sidestep there. I like the dodge too because you know then it puts uses his
Oh to reposition the AP is like okay fine. I just dodged the other way yep, but APA to Leah
We've been sent for years his best non-ziggs champion, and he's got all the
Best non-ziggs best non-ziggs champion
He's got and he's got a lot of the early money
So this dragon we're not leashing for them because the humgle is topside
Yeah, jungle doesn't want it. It's like when you're like, yeah, I'll be yeah, I got some
I don't know extra cookies in my house that I baked. We don't want some I'm still offered to you, but you're not
Whoa, I'm a good baker. What's up with that? I say I think you probably aren't cuz I saw you
Big take a cake or something recently. Yeah, yeah for Joanne little picture. Oh, kind of good. Yeah, it was good
Yeah, I was joking there. I thought that you were so confident in your baking skills
I will be crying myself to say
So I hope you can live with that
Well, I told Joanne ahead of time I was gonna do this to be ready to console you
Yeah, just he's got you
Just like Cloud9's got you this game, you know, they got me good for one you a good for one feeling a little down
But all you need no kills maybe five kills five kills five kills in the dragon. We don't ask for much
Yeah, I don't ask for much make it 20 though
Before you start to cover a sweep. Yeah, that's what we want
Okay, next thing on our list of wants our Christmas list or our not get picked off our March list
That's what I want. Yeah, spend it not get picked off and also to have a clean
Dragon fight where we set up and we're ready for the enemy's approach
And we handle it accordingly
That hasn't happened yet. It hasn't happened yet, but we have a big big goldie
And if you're enjoying this rivalry between us in Brazil guess what you're gonna get more for a stand exactly
And this one doesn't really matter, you know, we're just gonna practice practice practice practice practice match
Like it's a coffee about practice match first dance. That's where the real matches are played
That's where everything will be decided unless we lose in which case practice. Yeah
Well that one it's hard to argue practice because this one does the reward for this tournament is literal more practice
Yeah, but if you think about it if you win in a tournament you go further which gives you more games, which is really just practice
Championship reward practice life is really you're born you practice you die
Yeah, so right now we're practicing. We're not dead yet
Oh the charm barely misses. I like that. That's the practice paying off APA's little slide inside
Looking good for us honestly
All right. Well, I like how we're not even pretending we can hurt
We're using our grabbidum gun on him that's pretending for sure he gets comboed and then spends like you know, brother
I'm glad he's watching he's watching. I'm hovering you guys got any plays you're cooking up. Nope. I don't think so
No, sir, but I'm watching in case you do
He's staring at me think about setting up for our crap. Oh, yeah, Vulcan's got a plan here. We go
Here we go. Vulcan's gonna start it up. He pops the spellbook ghost. As Santos is getting a pros on, we do have a sent all coming through. It's not gonna matter.
4v1. Maybe he's not even using it. Maybe he's still hiding. So maybe he's expecting the kind of extended play here.
They were looking for the, for the defense, where the defense is coming from.
Alright, well.
Save combo.
Blascon is just gonna knock them away. We'll be able to get the dive off pretty easily.
I'm gonna go back from mid lane, I thought that waves is dead.
He's gonna help with the crab.
Okay.
Just gonna give that up.
We get the crab.
He's jungle-focused.
Uh-oh.
Try to dodge that.
That's kinda crazy.
He's not even on a full item and that's through barrier.
Half your health.
Yeah.
That's quite a bit of damage there from Ari.
And as an APA, he's just gonna be able to continue pushing this out.
But the kill also went to Sven.
Sven is very far ahead on bot side.
I mean, this is looking like everything is going our way.
Top side, big advantage.
bottom types. Look at that gank. I see it. Oh, he's behind him.
IU could be in some trouble. He does not have his flash,
so he's really got nowhere to go.
We'll take a while to knock him down,
but surely they're going to get the kill.
Should be able to get to Sven as well.
Sven gets another one. C9 playing their best game yet by far
up 3K here at 12 minutes.
And the comp scales quite well too,
so we'll see if they can make it work.
Volkan. Honestly, yeah, Volkan's been the best player
Overall I feel like for the team at the tournament and so I feel it makes me feel comfortable when he's on an engaged champ
Feel cozy in his arms. Exactly. Yeah, he's got a big a safe big old cow hug
People talk about their hugs all the time, but Vulcan's got a really good cow hug
Have you seen those like really shaggy cows? Yes, those are kind of cute. I'm talking about a yak
Or the actual cow that's really shaggy. Maybe a yak is kind of like a shaggy cow
It could be that I thought it was a certain breed of bison a buffalo those are also like more shaggy
It's a lot of like cow like shaggy things
But I feel like it would probably feel pretty nice to get a hug from a shaggy cow. Yeah
Vulcan
Yak cosplay
It's already doing it by some cosplay. Yeah, and it's in a
onesie to so even
Even more comfortable. Oh
And those gonna slice away does a flash does have dominance will get hit by the dreaded return and now all the damage probably drew
We'll be forced to flash hit by the root there from Senna
But question is Kenny stay around with their the wave. This is really risky
He's gonna pop dominance try to slice in clear out the wave and we'll be able to do so as APA and Vulcan
Zoning goods away who's gonna actually TP up towards topside
Trouble a four cross that play they just want to kill that at us again
They're literally sending everyone that is a big investment
Even Sion is going to go up there.
They're going to put five top.
They're five top while we're taking dragon in bottom.
Yeah, I mean, I guess they just think they can test.
But this wave is going to get cleared out for sure here from Phantos.
Question is, can he survive afterwards?
Last minion has already gone to Charm does land.
They're going to try to go in on the Phantos,
send all coming out, Grim deliverance.
They still haven't killed him, tries to get back,
does get shut down by Tatu at the tower.
Took them a lot of time though to do.
Yeah, they put a bit of damage down because Sansa tanky. They just sent him back mid actually so
You know they sent Gwen back they sent him back mid. They did still give up extra on bottom side, but
They killed Fana toast looking for to see me have to flash the ulti
He does do so but right into the combo if they have the damage to finish them off. They absolutely do
They're back. He is there to surf sin nice little high five for the squad first up
Maybe brings in some refreshments, you know or slices or something for the team
Yeah for the the the cowlet and the pig that just did all the work that's the bash pros
You think they have low damage and they do and they do you but they didn't need that much
I didn't do that. I only need like three or four hundred
Just an Ari just enough just an Ari a frail Ari
It's gonna get taken out
You know it says a lot about this tournament that I'm still incredibly nervous
I could feel it I could feel that about you and now one of the things I think
that was gonna happen that's gonna make you nervous it's been forming mid don't
like that a lot of a lot of unfortunate things have happened when he was
forming mid unfortunate maybe as far as the TP is concerned for Gigo does have
that teleport shield but it's worked through immediately getting CC change
here but Z9 is like you know what we're not going to continue the chase they do
get the needlework out but it's traded for the Dominus and a lot of Fury members
were moving down to reinforce okay I mean they're looking for cooldowns before
next dragon fight we say it's a lot but I was like looking for cooldowns
starting like around you know three minutes before dragon because then even
if they have cosmic insight and you can get a flash and it will be some
good leverage for the third one and third dragon it's not dragon soul but it
always feels like it's the really really meaningful turning point because then you
get super nervous if they got three in a row it's just like one little thing goes
wrong all of a sudden enemy team has you know the entire soul so why do you
think are you rushing more
seems pretty strange you know I mean it is it is better than Sunfire Cape like
The item is just better than Sunfire Cape. It gives you the wave clear.
It's better wave clear.
Also, Sunfire just sucks.
Sunfire is horrible.
Sunfire is just trash.
But I'm a little bit surprised.
I feel like if you, if you, I don't know.
The answer is wave control and Sunfire is just trash.
But if you can't go to Titanic or something.
Yeah, I think.
If you can't go to Titanic, I guess, I mean.
But it does feel a little bit weird now, because when you're looking at,
you know, an almost infinite gauge done for Zven.
And you're looking at Thanos who's really really strong, and you have very very little armor right?
You have very few stats that actually matter at all as the scion against
Those main threats of course it is going to be effective against APA
But that is not where most of the damage is going to be coming from here
APA finishes up his actualizer so that's pretty nice
That was always have quite a bit of burst and the infinity edge is going to come through very soon
So Cloud9 should be really strong for this next fight
Should be
I'd say they are and if you're strong you also should be able to set up for the fight and then win it
That's the scary part for sure. Yeah
And Sven's not gonna be a red light because his red gun has you know about one little shot left in it
They almost knocked down his bot tower
They're looking for a fight now though
Maybe going a bit too early blabber trying to go in is thought to be gonna use the grim deliverance
to just run away. And now the combo is right there as
puts the bees into a very dangerous spot and delivers
himself to cloud nine for a bit of a freebie.
Call that one the cow hug.
He teleported in to Vulcan's waiting arms. Vulcan combo
into seismic shove. That's a dead Ari.
Easy peasy. Same right in. God knocked up God knocked
down. Now five nine 30 seconds until the dragon here.
I mean, Ari will be back up, but will not have the spirit rush, so missing that ultimate is going to be pretty big.
Sveten backing off looks like he want to base, and if he's basing he's got to have IE, so they're gonna have pretty much everything
they would want for this fight.
No flash on IU, the flash will be back on Toots, but grip deliverance shouldn't be up, and neither should spirit rush, unless they can delay this quite a bit.
Yeah.
Honestly, they can even look for picks afterwards. I don't think Fury is gonna even go over there.
Yeah.
The idea here is they're so far behind, it's inadvisable to go walk over to 3rd Dragon at the moment.
So let's try and make a cross map play and they should get some money elsewhere.
So we don't have a chance to mess up another Dragon fight.
Shout out to Furio once again. Appreciate that, brothers.
As the Weaver's wall is going to come through, TP comes in here from I, who's now in a bad spot.
And remember no flash. That is a dangerous TP, but he will be able to get back to safety.
Also out of there with the unstoppable onslaughts a teleboard down flash down as well as heal from Jojo
They're trying to get some damage down on the top lane turret
But really fury got pretty much nothing here
They gave over the dragon and the tier one mid plus a bunch of some Scott maybe a plate two plates max top
counter
They took blabbers jungle. Look at this. Look at blabbers face when he realizes
They got my hat. They got my blue camps the jig is in foot
They got they got my jungle again. They started out the game taking his jungle and it didn't work it didn't work out for them because
Touched them died immediately afterwards multiple times multiple times
Yeah, so it was actually fortunate for blabber that his jungle was taken by tattoo because it forced him into ganking mid
Which snowballed and caused our scenario jungle diff it's not too small
Yeah
By the way still on that if we go all the back to the game this game
I wouldn't blame him for reporting mid.
I wouldn't either.
He was completely trolled by his mid laner.
I would not blame you.
Tutsch is probably going to get at least three.
Sometimes the support doesn't report you, because it's just really nice people in general.
But he's probably going to get.
I would report him if I was playing support.
Yeah, okay.
You got my back too.
I got your back.
I'm down for it.
All right, now we're just looking for this next dragon to see if Cloud9 can cleanly
close it out even in their wins they have not been clean at all even with you
know a 13,000 Goldy they struggled to close against Sentinels so I would love
to see them have a clean game I would like to see Cloud9 play to the best of
their ability you know win or lose in this series we want to see them show
up a bit the players obviously want to to everyone has joked about it a lot
you know the underperformance of Cloud9 there's lots of memes there's lots of
frustration but at the end of the day no one's getting more frustrated than
Cloud9 as Tuts tries to go in for a VA because I mean these guys are
are dedicating their lives to it.
They're grinding all the time.
They don't want to be looking like this.
They know they're looking bad.
They know that they have fallen off
from their level of remorse.
So it would be great to see them have at least a couple
of good games here and show that they can at least go toe
to toe with Furia, who has been really aggressive.
Every interview that we've had with Cloud9 Players,
first thing they say is, yeah, we know.
We are playing really, really poorly.
Obviously, they're going to be the most aware of it.
So, Barry could be good for our mental.
They're going to try to go in on this.
Volcan is taking a lot of damage for free to start this off.
Here comes the Donning Shadow.
Tatsu is going to go impressive.
They're trying to return around on the call-by.
Brett White in there for Sven.
He's got the trucker stacked up.
But they're in on top of him and Sven is down.
They're going to crush him this fight.
Everyone from Cloud9 is falling.
Then a toast!
Then a toast though, trying to save us here in this moment.
Gets a triple.
Could he get a pent up?
And it's almost 1v5 at the end of the fight here, he's trying to stay alive, flashes out of the stun, going to get knocked down.
At least, they don't give over the Baron because he got some kills back, but that was a bad fight.
Tatu is pumped up, and off of that, he got so many kills, he's 2k up now on Zahen!
We saw when Thanatos carried a game for C9 vs Red on Zahen.
Well, Tachi's got the opportunity now.
The Zahend is on the other foot.
Yeah, and that is rough.
I mean, Claude and I, and I was talking about
trying to get a clean closeout in one game,
and it's definitely not going to be that now.
So how does APA end up in the barren pit at the end?
Because I think he uses it, he, he walls in,
and then he flashes out.
He walls in, it's kind of dangerous.
He gets the shove back.
But then, yeah, because Glenn and Zahend are on it,
Then he's inside the pit, and then he's kind of walking away,
but he comes back to help DPS, because Sanatos is like,
yo, I can still do work.
So he does get the shove.
Because APA gets that shove, it allows Sanatos to get these skills.
So it's kind of like a sacrifice,
but it's APA sacrificed him.
He goes back in so he can get a combo shove and rocks down
that allows Sanatos to at least grab a couple.
And yeah, Nero's like, ah, man.
It's just kind of that, what are we doing?
Well, man, Tatsu pumped up here,
play into the crowd, feeling really good.
I mean, if you can pull up and come back like this,
and the gold lead is basically gone.
So now it is down to this Dragon fight.
C9 from a much more even position,
will have to actually execute at this fight,
but they are missing a lot of key summoners.
There's no flash here on Sven.
APA has spellbooked over towards Ghost,
so he's missing his flash.
Basically, everyone on C9 has no flash,
and they're actually on the Baron here,
trying to threaten a trade.
Baron for soul, never great,
but still 15 seconds until that does spawn and Furia trying to get over there.
Five nine, they got it cleaned up.
They got way too confident there going in and both was way ahead of the team.
And they're just right back into the pit now.
We have two blue trinkets if they had to just bloom,
Scrire is bloomed over there.
Surely they cannot do this in our face.
This seems so illegal here.
Vulcan is ghosting over.
They are going to push them back out of the pit.
They clear out the pink ward, drop one of their own.
And now the recalls are going to be pretty late from Furia.
Kiko's going to be going back to base.
He does have his TP though, but Cloud9,
yeah, they should be on this dragon.
We'll see.
IE is going to be the one to face check though.
That is a very tanky sign.
We have the plate.
Get on that!
Dantos is split, and the team is very split as well.
Volkan is in the midst of everyone.
Kiko's just going in for respan on APA.
APA is low already.
Toast is going to have the Charmbot go by Bliver.
And in goes Dantos.
He burst down to it, and Volkan is still alive.
Sven and APA still didn't get a thing.
IE is going to flash forward.
Volkan is knocked down.
The steal comes in from Tatsu.
Spend them, trying to get more.
Has the trucker stacked up.
And Z9 wanna look for a fight here.
Flavortix a massive chunk of damage though from Gigo.
As Tatsu's trying to get that pass,
they're stacked up,
Spending to get involved,
but he's just not in the middle of a fight at all.
They are low,
but Z9 are not hitting whatsoever.
And they have lost the fight again.
They have lost the dragon again.
And Z9, despite the advantages,
are still outplayed.
cannot even win a fight with this much of a gold lead,
with this much of an advantage.
They still fall short.
Out!
They lose the dragon.
And we'll see how much more they're going to lose.
Is there time for them to try to get over to Baron?
They're teeping towards topside.
I don't think they can go straight Baron,
but man, now we're down 2K, and we lost soul.
I feel like they had the setup,
and then they delayed on the setup,
and I was like, OK, well, they're
just waiting for the face jack,
so they're immediately going to fight.
But then two went onto the dragon and they stayed on the dragon too long, so they like didn't start immediately and they waited
But only then half the team waited to take the fight and they're on Baron
If they get Baron here, the game is probably probably pretty done and it looks like it's gonna be likely an uncontested
Baron here and just like that we go from you know a couple minutes or 4k up huge advantages
Now we're gonna be about 4k down and it feels like I mean they have double infinite stacking soul champs
Yep, the game is flipped away.
It is extremely disappointing to be watching Cloud9 just unable to play in any of these circumstances.
See, there's the dancers, Sven and BlaBur still hitting the dragon,
dancers are up at the wave, and half the team is starting to fight early, so we lose a lot of time.
Then also, of course, we miss this 25-0 from the smite here.
But even from here, if we're simply be able to keep like this, I mean, Sven has not been hit the whole time.
And Phyllis, he was playing so scared they one shot took when he went in.
From this position, does Sven really have to be this scared?
He's not auto attacking at all the whole time.
Like, you don't have Flash, I get it, but you have Ghost.
And it's not like they have Ori, they don't have a champ that can just completely one-shot you.
I feel like he played that so scared, he was barely hitting at all.
And C9 just feel completely disjointed, and Tattu super pumped up, taking off the headset, big face pump,
steals the dragon, and what can you say?
I mean, you can say, Tattu is our father.
He deserves he deserves that this he stacks up as a hen like the reason why it's so good to have a long fight like that
You know he gets the first part of the fight stacks up his passive
Then it's this immortals a hen with passive stacks and a revive and all the extra ad and
Conquer stacks up and then they they run through and yes
Spend is off on the side like putting the turret by the scion and like green Q
But not even autoing the sign who had 20% health and no threat.
But meanwhile you've got this unstoppable God of War, the Zahein with the fully stacked passive charging you down.
Yep, well, despite the early lead, we are now down 4k. They have the Baron and they're looking to push.
I mean, Cloud9 obviously still have a chance, but it's hard to believe based on how they've been playing so far.
When you can't even scrape together a fight when you're so far ahead, it's going to be really tough to do when you're this far behind.
behind. Sven does have the LDR. Deathcap almost done for APA, but you're looking over on the other side.
IU's really tanky now. The Senna has over 100 stacks at this point, so has stacked really, really well.
And Zen is gigafed. The Ignite Renekton is now behind the Gwen, and that's a 3-atom Gwen, so their threat is really, really high.
The biggest thing that I would hope that they would take away from the tournament and all these games would be like,
We just at least need everybody to have the game plan of our dragon fight beforehand
This is something that we were talking about while they were like three four thousand go to head. Yeah
And it just looked like obviously I don't have to calm
We didn't have the comms for this one, but it looked like they weren't thinking the same thing that the same thing was gonna happen
And then you listen in on to like lion with inspired shot calling
legit
30 seconds before they're even at the river by drag. We're gonna do this. I'm gonna prep Q
We're gonna turn on this guy this this this this this you go you go you go wait this, you know
This is our target. This is what we're gonna do. It's everyone's on the same page, but it looks like for
So many of these objective fights a lot of them are dragons somewhere rifter out though
They're not it doesn't really matter the location. We can lose at any objective
It seems like we don't have the same idea
idea. No, I mean, there's clearly of multiple minds, right?
APA and Vulcan were positioning for a fight to actually engage as they're coming in.
Robert and Sven are hitting the dragon, and Phantos is looking kind of like for a flank.
There's just all these different ideas of how they actually want to play out the fight.
Our small timing windows mean a real big difference in teamfights. Obviously, there's the things
inside teamfights to do with execution, but... But they're just not on the same page.
That's the number one plan. Yeah. And that's something that Cloud9 has historically
always been so good at which is why it's so weird. Even when cloud nine is
struggling regionally internationally whatever they've always been the team
that is gonna full send it on something and that's even what they talked about
with blabber so much when they were doing well in the LCS you know in the
lock-in tournament they talked so much about oh well you know ha we're gonna
always send it with blabber because if you don't it's gonna go bad and he's
almost always right so we always full send it we're always on the same page
yeah but they have not been on the same page at all they're down 4.4k
Now this you take turns each game somebody gets the the the planning stick
And whoever person you talk whoever else is well everyone else can talk
Only
Making the game
We thought this was my game in a serious game. So guess what buddy only Vulcan could talk
Everyone else is muted on cloud not one person gets to make the plan and you got it. Everyone goes with that plan
Because he's the only one who
Is inspiring any faith that's not not gonna look for a little bit of an engaged on top
They get a bit of damage down but not committing to it
And that is a couple ultimate spent for really not much. Yeah, you can do exercises like when you go into
Practice or a match or something and say all right for this one
The main goal to think about is gonna be
Whenever we were making our plans for how we're gonna approach objectives and what we're gonna do when enemy team approaches
Let's up that timer by a minute.
And so whenever we're going to do it,
let's do it a minute ahead of time.
Start talking about the plan so that everybody's
on the same page and you know like,
all right, this is how we expect it to go.
But if they approach, this is the main thing,
then we have to do this so we can.
The weirdest part is when we're
talking about objective setups and how to fight dragons.
This hasn't changed.
This is just basically the legends that has been
A core part of pro play for a million years and it's a team of veterans
I mean Santos is a bit newer APS a bit newer than some of the other players
But these guys have all been around the block there. They're all you know champions
And so it's it's just one of these things where I'm very surprised that it's
Seeming to be such a struggle for them that and maybe it's just a mental thing
You know, maybe they're in a really bad mindset now and kind of event did talk about how they were doubting each other and doubting
getting themselves and really kind of struggling and you can see it as they're
gonna look for a pick here on the Vulcan the late ult from him and not gonna be
able to get too much. Dandos trying to threaten on the side but Dandos is now
flipping the rest of the team. Weaver's wall will come through the needlework from
Geego. It's just cutting through Dandos. They're gonna try to turn around on the
Geego as he flashes back over the Weaver's wall there. Last shadow barely
keeping him alive. The Donning Shadow excuse me and C9 gonna be trying to
push up mid but they may just go straight onto the bear and Vlaver
Lava pushing forward, they get a blue ward down on that Baron.
Lava choked a bit here, Vulcan down to half HP and has no ult.
APA trying to get some vision with Tatu just jumped over the wall.
APA face checks, get the flash away, trying to get out.
But he is knocked down.
Tatu goes godlike.
You can say that again.
He has been destroying Cloud9 here today.
Toots gets another reset.
C9 still wanting to try to push in,
seeing if they can do anything.
It's down to 5k.
Vulcan is low, has to flash out.
Look at the side as he goes back and he is winning that fight again.
Then it goes hand for the needlework.
Sven flashes forward.
Does get a kill.
One of JoJo is up to Sven.
Now how's the turn of stack?
This claims a Baron.
The charge lands on Sven.
He is gone.
Tattoo goes legendary.
Cloud9 in tatters here, getting torn apart by Tattoo and Furia.
They grab another Baron.
They only lose their support for it.
Cloud9 can do nothing to answer.
Tatsu, player of the game, player of the tournament, player of the series, I think we can award
an award we've never awarded before, player of the tournament, even.
Player of the game, player of the series, player of the tournament, Tatsu, on the zahane
here.
It's a 5k.
It's crazy work.
I think the game is just maybe over.
Xen is still dead here for 15, Vulcan still dead for 10.
They're going to try to look for a game, try to finish it off, they're getting
onto Flammer, he's under the tower with a CC chain, he is there, Flammer, flashes
trying to run for the hills and it goes back in trying to get something done but
he can't do nothing. No one on cloud nine has been able to stop Furia. They locked
down that last nexus through here. Sven trying to push forward trying to take down
Kigo but he's in the midst of the whole team. The Hallow Mist is there. Cloud nine are gone.
Furia will sweep them in the Americas Cup Finals. It's a perfect 8-0 run for Furia.
They have dominated the LCS and are your rightful champions.
Furia the GOATS undefeated the whole tournament.
Actual insane work here.
Really beautiful stuff.
Tattoo, amazing, amazing performances all tournament long.
He was smurfing 5'9", just couldn't never get it together here.
Even with a monstrous lead, they couldn't even contest in this game, got wiped in the team
fights, outsmited when it mattered, outplayed when it mattered.
Fury always showing up in those big moments.
To me the biggest difference is when you watch the teams play, whether it was a good player
or a bad player, Fury always on the same page.
I love that motion from the crowd too.
Look how much it means.
Get an international win here for Brazil.
Get the trophy.
They really deserve performance from them as well. Nicely done and they don't even have to report them in later next.
They won the game in the end anyway. There you go. Tim Proust. Yeah, Tim Proust didn't even end up mattering.
Fury, congratulations. Well deserved celebration.
Yep, very well done for them. They say nothing bad about this team. They really showed up in all of the series.
way for sure. Not even close
show up in all the big moments.
The teams were able to get themselves
in a good spots, but it never seemed to matter.
They just were out team fought in every situation
outplayed in the clutch moments
talk to easy player of the tournament.
I think for me, you know, he was
was the big star here. There's been a lot
of talk about talking to even last year
and about how this guy is becoming that breakout
star in the CB wall and I think he proved it
here again. I got an idea. You think we need those, those, those things they're wearing to
open up our breathe better. Yeah. Yeah. I think, I think we're suffocating. Let's get, let's
get our teams on that. Let's get, we need to get on that quick. That's looking like a good strategy.
More oxygen to the brain. Open those nostrils up. Oh, I think we might actually get an
interview with tattoo. Yeah, we might. That'd be sick. We can talk to us about how he
I was like, Oh, my God. I
was like, Oh, my God. I was
like, Oh, my God. I was like,
Blasted us matches upset. Did
you see some we I did a replay
after the second game when
tattoo is playing Zen, and I
wasn't even going to look for
this because it didn't show on
during the game and it didn't
show during the in game
replay, but I found the one
where. Oh. I'm here in the
Nice. We get a little preview, little Portuguese, but anyways, I found it was even a cooler replay
than I thought because the replay the observer showed was taught to waiting in the brush
and and waiting until Blabber walked by and left an opening to gank APA. But the way that he got
there is they had vision of APA coming over to ward the line brush by mid and he just
goes over and flashes the thick part of the dragon wall to get into that brush in the
first place and and then waits and it's just like this guy is even better than
is showing actually on screen yeah I mean he is crushing it 14 4 and 23 he's
pumping out the damage in all three games really perform well even when put
into bad spots it just didn't seem to matter they always are able to kind of
fight their way out of that they're always able to find that angle to
punish cloud nine and cloud nine gonna be pretty devastated I think you know
not able to show anything even even after having quite a bit of time in
Brazil to acclimate. You know, they talked about, hey, our
form is by far the worst on that first day when we play
FURIA. It seemed like they were feeling more confident that
they would at least be competitive, have a better
accounting of themselves, but pretty, pretty disappointing
tournament for caught nine. And honestly, for all of
else, yes, I think it's one of the toughest results we've
ever had internationally.
Yep. Practice, though.
Practice. Okay, practice.
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
But they might be dead.
They're definitely feeling it. And again, it's always we're
talking about don't, uh, you know, don't definitely don't like harass the players or anything.
They feel the most bad by far about their performances. So if anything, try and send
some support now because they do need, uh, they do need that. They're, they're definitely
not feeling good. Um, so, uh, yeah, hopefully they can, you know, focus on the practice
and focus on, uh, getting stronger and coming back for the LCS.
Yes, baby. Yep. Uh, we know that cloud nine can play a lot better than they showed
here at the America's Cup.
We're hoping that they're going to be able to get back in form
for spring split where they will have to be in form
if they want to challenge Lyon, who is, of course,
going to be our first stand representative there.
Also going to be playing loud, which is pretty exciting.
The number one seed from the CBLOL.
And obviously, first stand is a big deal.
That is, you know, that international tournament.
This was kind of a fun side event
where we got our butts whooped,
but we're hoping that Lyon will do well
at first stand against loud.
And then we'll see if C9 can bounce back after a really tough end to their lock in and a really
tough run there at America's Cup to try to challenge Lyon.
So grab your tickets.
It is going to be on April 4th and the tickets are available March 10th, so we'd love to see
you all here.
The vibes are doing really good in the studio.
Yeah, the studio is so fun.
I loved the Demacia setup that we had for 5.02.
The thrones were lit.
and then inspired just lounging in it for the MVP interview afterwards and stuff is
it's definitely fun getting in the full thing. They had some aura. Yeah having their
cosplayers and stuff every time too. Good vibes. Yeah it was really really cool. We are
gonna instead actually get an interview with sounds like with Toots so we're just waiting for that.
I'm gonna ask him about the early bank. Yeah after Tatoo I just counter-jungle the blabber.
However, how does it feel like blasting North America?
Because they absolutely dominated us.
So, FURIA must be feeling amazing at the moment.
Undefeated in a tournament.
When we saw the reactions from the fans, huge.
I mean, it's hard to say, just off the top of my head.
But it feels like probably the biggest international result
they've ever had.
As far as being able to take down a tournament,
eight games in a row, it's a really impressive.
Undefeated through a whole tournament?
Yeah, it's a really impressive result.
When you talk about the CBLL teams in the past,
people talk about Kaboom and these moments where it's like,
oh, they won that one big game.
They had that really cool run, but they just
slammed this tournament.
Yeah, it's not like a full-on international tournament.
It's more of like a little mini side event, right?
Kind of continuation of those inter-regional events
that we had from LTA.
But still, they beat our butts.
So definitely should be really proud of that.
And I'm sure the CBLOL fans who are so passionate
are gonna be really, really excited about that.
And I think it is undeniable that CBLOL is improving, right?
When you look back to past results,
it would be shocking if CBLOL won even a game,
usually against a lot of the other regions,
against like LCS and LEC and so on.
And last year, they almost beat G2 and the best of five
at MSI, they did take a series
in the LTA championship playoffs.
They did improve a lot throughout the year,
and here we got our butts beat by Furia.
At the start of the year, we went down to Brazil
and we smacked them.
They only dropped one game, one all four series,
but they got better throughout the year,
challenged you, you know, have one series against us now
and here they beat us.
So we'll see how loud it's gonna do at first hand
because that's kind of exciting too.
That's always the coolest thing to see, you know,
hard work result in improvement
and seeing it rewarded here
and seeing all the passion that they have for the game
Resulting in much improved, you know, results.
So really nice performances and improvements so far.
Uh, I, okay.
Yeah.
He just arrived.
All right.
So we are getting to this.
Yeah.
So we can ask him about the early gig, but also overall about how, how it's
fell in this tournament and how he, how, how far it feels like the team has come.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
I mean, it is kind of crazy.
They're, they're the third seed, right?
You know, they, um, red was the team that was, was, uh, beating them,
But they really outperformed here really impressive. I think we have to it's now here on the line. Can you hear us buddy?
Yeah, I can
Congratulations, man. You guys just went undefeated in America's Cup
You'll beat our ass
Sorry, can you turn the volume up a bit because it's really loud here
Yeah, we can hear the fans being really loud too as well
How did how did you feel? You know, how do you feel you guys went 80 your America's Cup champions?
This is a huge result for CB wall you smacked cloud 9 twice you swept sentinels. This is a big moment. How does it feel?
Yeah, yeah, I was great man. I think of course desire game was a bit of a a lot of misfortunes happening, but
Anyways, we managed to come back.
We always trust that even if we're behind, we're still very resilient too.
So, yeah, it feels great to win those kind of games as well.
And, yeah, it felt great to go on the field.
Because CB Lowell Cup definitely felt, left us with a bit of a bitter taste.
So, it's good to win this, especially on the field.
Yeah, I want to ask you, what do you feel like have been the improvements
for your team from CB Lowell Cup to this tournament?
because like you said even in the games where you guys got behind you still had a clear game plan of how to attack the
objectives and how to approach them
Yeah, well, I think the
Lesson that Cblok up taught us was basically to play really aggressive and play fearless
I think we are we were hesitating a lot in Cblok up when when we had like jungler both side or even around me
We wouldn't pressure we were just like an AFK farm
So nowadays we're using a lot better the proximity of our jungler and our supports to do plays and get control on the map
So I think that's definitely step one and I think step two is what I said
Which is basically fearless right like not be afraid to make mistakes
Just make sure you're doing your job and even if you're afraid doesn't matter because you've done it practice before
So I think that was the big thing for us
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense is interesting that you mentioned playing fearless because
because Sven and a lot of the NA players had mentioned that they felt like they were playing
with a lot of fear of making mistakes and not playing confidently when they had advantages.
What did you see from C9 and Sentinels that you thought, you know, they were necessarily
doing wrong?
Because I think a lot of people were surprised that they couldn't at least compete with
you guys.
Obviously, they beat Red Kennids, but you guys just looked like you were on a complete
different level.
Yeah, for me, especially, I think they're very different things.
I think Sentinels does a lot better when they are behind in the game, like hiding where they are.
We kind of need to guess where they are and play step by step really well or we get punished.
So I think Sentinels is a bit more creative when they're behind.
But I feel like both teams kind of lack the early game concept a bit.
I think they play it kind of slow.
I feel like when we play the ranged bot lanes, we usually get leads and we can pressure them a lot better.
So I feel like it definitely feels like laning phase and early game is a bit lacking.
Also, I feel like execution, and I feel like they really are playing a bit scared sometimes.
Like, we have paint on that game, and I feel like every time we go to sideline, they're just kind of like catching it and being afraid of paint-to-painting.
So, yeah, I think it's a bit of a mix of like fear and not playing the early game the best.
So it's a bit of a deadly combo, in my opinion.
It definitely was deadly for us.
Congratulations once again. That's our last question. You can get back to the team and celebrate.
Thank you very much.
Yeah, I like that.
Yeah, we'll take it back to the teams.
You know, we'll take the notes back.
Yeah.
Let them know what the bottom of you there.
Yeah, exactly.
That's who we got to learn.
We got to learn.
We got to learn and improve.
And we're going to do that for first and a lot of learning.
A lot of practice and now lion will be the beneficiary.
Yeah, exactly.
Sentinels and C9 will send them all the notes.
Exactly.
They're going to send them all the notes.
They can study up here.
up here. It's been, it's been a fun, a fun week here of America's Cup. Obviously not the results
that we wanted, but hope you all enjoyed it. Obviously, a much kind of tight ship here from
production. Shout out to our production and the PAs who are here helping and Kobe and
Kangus, which had this three-man squad doing it. So it was a lot of fun, a bit of a different
vibe. So hope you guys enjoyed it and that is going to do it here for us at America's Cup.
So we will see you next at first stand and hopefully you will be enjoying some line wins.
C9 in their own face with a game one they could have been an email and a cakewalk for Furia they will maintain their
undefeated streak to kick off the Grand Finals best of five.
Taki stays on the baron, APH trying to pepper him in the pit as well as Giga goes all out, now goes the flash with the top from Goods.
Furia against the baron, Furia against the teamfighter, FF for C9, Furia crushing them underneath the Nexus currents
and are going to go two-oh in the grand finals of the inaugural America's Cup.
Undefeated still against the LCS.
We're going to try to go in on this.
Molten is taking a lot of damage for free to turn this off.
It comes to Donning Shadow.
Talk to him, it's going to go impressive.
They're trying to return around on the call of nine.
Brett White is there for his vent.
He's got the truck room stacked up, but they're in on top of him.
And Sven is down.
They're going to crush him this fight.
Everyone from call of nine is falling.
Cloud9 are gone!
Buria will sweep them in the America's Cup finals!
Oh, finals!
It's all up on you
but we don't like it, mom
the room feels cold
when it's not here
my head is already lost
I just think about you
and I feel better if you have the courage
to take off all this moisture
you just have to come back
