This game perfectly exemplifies to me why NA/EU excuses about “practice skill gap” are nonsense. G2 went from a winning position to losing the game off of purely their own bad choices. Not mechanical outplays, or strategic revolutions by BLG. Just G2s own decision making.
NA/EU teams just love needless gambles. when you are in a winning position, just play safe, make use of map advantage to extend the $ lead and when the $ lead is significant force a fight.
I still do not understand why caps went top side to shadow BB when he knows they are 5 man grouped mid/bot & pushing with nashor buff with just a t3 mid to hold on. What was he thinking?
True but ever since Ryze shield removal of his passive aswell as many minor nerfs like zhonyas ult… Ryze has never been the same and Taric had basically 0 impact entire game, stun got dodged everytime cuz its so damn easy
@@mrkillamoa Not really.. nocturne is nice but not as annoying as Skarner. It already showed multiple games how devastating Skarner's presence in the game is. if you ask me, perma ban is Yone and Aurora. |n this team it just doesn't make sense for them to pick Xin Xiao and Renekton.. pretty dumb choice tbh.

Hans thought his e killed BLG mid, so e should be reset to kill Rumble immediately. However, in reality his E has damaged on Sylas but not enough to kill Sylas immediately so e should not be reset.
it was a reallyyyyy unlucky timing for HANS ! Sylas was under zonhya, and rumble was not, and when hans tried to E rumble activated his zonhya, so it should have cancelled the activation of hans' E and kept the CD of his E, BUT at the SAME TIME (litteraly frame perfect) sylas went out of his zonhya, so his E still activated, but on sylas who was 50% hp even in X0.25 some of the caster, analyst, and pro struggled to see it !

@@justme5701 he should pull his E earlier, even if u consider he is "unlucky" ,his E still does a considerable amount of damage to Sylas, can't be too greedy.
True, but their performance this tournament really should've gotten them out of swiss. Meanwhile look at Weibo, they're a team that played way worse than G2 did all tournament and they got out.
@angryyordle4640 No excuses man. Baron call was OK. They should have nuked baron and get the hell out of there. Then most likely they would win. Their brains barfed, so they lost. For a team that wants to win world's, these "unlucky draw " excuses are nonsense. They have to be able to beat anyone. I agree that the low LEC level was probably their downfall. If it stays like that, next year they need to make challenges for themselves (e.g. win a lossless season, win a perfect game etc). That's the only way they can improve with that dogshit competition.
One time, just one time I would like to see a team that isn't from China or Korea do well at worlds. It's been 13 freaking years, you would think something would give by now.
But Fnatic was 1st world champion 😅 Thats happen before Korea and China focus on LOL competitive scene. TBF Mikyx / Hansama / Yikes not good enough if you want world title
Korea and china are boot camps , gaming serious business. Na ,Eu Your average gaming club and gaming in those regional full of trolls so You can't get bettee
with how much NA and EU(mostly NA) are gatekeeping possible new players that would actually want to go big, instead of just going back and forth from those regions as a retirement plan, aint no way that's gonna happen anytime soon.
Bugs Sama doesn't even know how Kalista works and starts crying after their team lost a 4v1 against a 1/2 HP Ezreal. I think even Iron players would jump the Ezreal even if it meant a 2x1 at that point.
youre the childish one lol he gets paid millions lol and u dont. he paused bc of a bug, its also a team game and yike made mistakes the whole team did even the last tp. u cant blame it on one person. rumble and sylas also carried the game. comments like this are just dumb af. u cant even reach pro play level. like i said its not a 1v1 its a team game. everyone plays a big part
Yet again another exit for G2. I think they just need to approach the game with a little humility. That with that said maybe fate will handle them the World Champions. Outta here. 😅😅😅
Everybody is complaining that their team should change,need better players, What i see only support need to change. Caps holding on to game, Hanssama is kiting/attacking everybody in his range. Jungler actually look out for their enemy damage dealers, And brokenblade is tanking their dmg and doing some effort to fight. I dont understand their support, no folllow up, no precise decision making, Saw like taric ult could be early as their team is dying early
BLG did what was expected but G2 was disappointing, playing at this lvl you can't make mistakes like when caps went top and that baron call after a huge 5vs5 win.
That baron call is fcking disgusting almost bronze level worth of decision making. It doesn't make sense, even if they have Kalista for Securing Baron. it doesn't make sense to do Baron with how strong the enemy team is currently. it would have been best to let the enemy start the baron and them kiting it.
2nd year in a row, NA gets a team to playoffs and EU gets knocked out. Yet these clowns have the nerve to make fun of NA like they're somehow any better. Both regions are basically the same circus. That Baron turn call was dogshit, wishy-washy, just like their region. At least NA has a domestically competitive league where champions change every year. THIS is the most dominant team in EU, just shows how stagnant the region has become.
I'd agree NA is better on average than EU but if you account for G2 performance vs eastern teams and overall level of gameplay, it is pretty clear they are the best in the west, and they have been so the whole year. Ofc, this assumes that people are not result biased and understand that a team making it to quarter is not necessarily better than a team who doesn't. Which I think, is quite easy to understand outside of banter and copium modes : beating north korea in football is not the same as beating germany, right ? As a supporter of both regions, it's very obvious to me at least that G2 is better .
epic fail or no true in game leadership for that baron fail? Why is xin engaging for a kill while taric baits everyone. Xin goes in taric goes to slap baron for 5 secs and lose most of his life..... biggest throw on the biggest stage
not really it was the one who made the baron call throw the game so hard, the baron was 5000hp at that time, he will never be able to finish baron before enemies killing him
