NA (Near Airport) is a region known for arriving at the stage and then being the first region to return back to the airport. After looking miserable for years on the international stage, this region switched priorities and started investing in speedrunning. NA is currently home to the world record holders of Airport Any% and Airport No Wins categories.

@@podefunder No, he has a spot because of his passport and the Na quota. LCS teams are forced to field at least 2 NA players since a challenger chinese team who couldnt qualify to LPL, just went in NA to get a world spot. Riot changed the rules the next season forcing LCS teams to field 2 NA players even if/when they are garbage
People before the tournament: "Omg Yeon is the goat, he improved so much, he's gonna show all the doubters at MSI" Yeon at MSI: Lanes 2v1, has less cs than his Renekton that didn't have a lane
TES got lucky, normally TL would wipe the floor with them. They just got unlucky three times in a row. Meiko getting two solo kills as support? You're not gonna believe it but it was pure luck. The 2v2? Jackeylove got really lucky hitting six just before a minute before the fight, really clutch but still just really unlucky for TL. TES are really lucky they got Lucian twice, when JackeyLove played Senna he looked really bad compared to when he won worlds because he did not win worlds in that game. GG WP RITO UNLUCKY NA.
What a pisslow take. Can't even accept they got hands-gapped for the majority of the series. Sure there were unlucky mistakes, but your whole take talks as if everything relied on f*cking luck. No wonder NA remains that pisslow despite having actually good players
@@rac8153 Well, many of his mistakes weren't in 2v2 situations so it was less about TES' botlane being better and more about Yeon personally shitting the bed over and over again
damn I just checked the record, same as last year, BLG lost 1 game to GG in playin and everyone says they are the weakest... and then 3-0 C9... TES just did the same thing
The craziest thing about this is people are actually surprised NA is bad. If the weren't competitive when they had crazy money, what makes people think they will be competitive now.
I unironically blame C9. If you stack that much of your region's talent on one team and they play like crap, then your region is screwed. Like, our opinion of EU would be way lower if G2 choked and FNC and BDS were the MSI teams. But G2 actually did what they were supposed to so EU looks respectable while NA looks like an actual minor region.
Lack of consistent top-tier competition. Lack of support systems for up and coming players. Up until recently, NA didn't even do multi-game series during regular split. It's a deeply unserious region. The gap will continue to widen.
Forced NA players quota and VC leaving the scene. Teams are forced to field insanely weak players just because of their passport and imports have left the region with the money gone. Retired imports suspend their retirement for a bag of cash
After rewatching, Yeon kept autoing 369 in lane over and over, he lost 4 CS just because he was reloading after wasting 3 autos for no reason. Hes actually trash
He definitely needs to level up. He seemed to go into autopilot waiting for others to do things. CoreJJ not being able to roam early from bot lane without Yeon getting capped - handicaps this team.
I think this is one of the worst na 1 seeds ever in internationals. Tes have their faults no way this should be such a one sided stomp fnc did significantly better against tes. I was saying this tl team didn't look very good after they won and their fans went crazy at me. Reality hits hard.
First it's GENG (you would be mad to think the result of that game would be any different than what it was today I predict 3-0 GenG) and it doesn't matter whatever Creme picks he is not going to be a challenge for Chovy. TES will lose most likely 3-1 and I am saying this as FPX fan in extension LPL fan.
Why would beating any western team and more specifically an NA team boost any eastern player's confidence? "Oh yeah I totally smashed that silver ziggs otp, chovy better get ready for me"
@@pratikroy227western audience overhype for how good Chovy is. He is good but not unstoppable. If Yagao can put Chovy down, top lpl mid laners can do so easily
Thank you TL. Now I can see TES must been fucking around in playins haha. Damn I am looking forward to TES and GenG. I think if TES keeps this form they will beat GenG easily through botlane and keeping chovy out of the game then domino effect kind of how T1 took those two games in the grand final. I could be wrong. I think it will be fun to watch TT1 vs BLG and TES because their early game seems the same.
11:30 either way at that fight it makes no sense for UmTi to Maokai W the URGOT over the Hwei who is also in range/vision and his team can burst. Urgot is such a horrible W target for Maokai there
TL got 3-0’d but there were a lot of moments that looked better than I expected. I expected flyquest vs t1 level stomps, but at least TL had some moments here or there. It’s cope but it’s better than whatever the fuck those flyquest games were.
might took TES a bit long but hey they are only an A rank team so TL holding out longer then FLY was expected but regardless - 100% agree with the thumbnail expectations were low but holy fk it feels they just gave up - to team wide effort, here and there individuals trying something but wtf was that - LCS champs for sure
That's what happens when top teams in NA collapses like C9. When the team don't perform and plays like shit, how are other teams going to push each other to play better? Iron sharpens iron. You're only as strong as your weakest link. NA teams don't hold each other accountable and that's the results.
Does anyone know why there's no FNC vs TES video yet? I was watching Caedrel live but still wanted to see Dom's reaction to it Edit: I meant the Fnatic vs GAM series
I blame C9 for this garbage man, on paper that team could've been at least mildly competitive, not win a series but maybe take a game or two like a FNC. Really hope they're competitive next split too they're the only hope NA has to not look worse than a minor region (which we should be tbh)
How on Earth, a league, where each team only plays 2 games on stage each week in regular season, can ever deserve 3 seeds in Worlds and 2 seeds in MSI?
Didn't Meiko's worlds win happen with all his games on yuumi/lulu? Then he took extended break due to being bad, can't say hes consistantly number 1 for a decade.
Meiko is my second best player ever. You could argue xiaohu, or deft or whoever but nobody's resume even comes close to meiko. When the best adcs played with meiko, they got even better
People saying Jackey stopped inting but tbh I've seen at least 3-4 moments like 10:35 over LPL...sure, it's no longer every game, but the Jackey ints are still there
He ints aggressively as in goes in and tries to solo carry I would take that over any current ADC in the tournament except Guma and Elk. Western ADC are garbage and Peyz plays too conservatively
@@UA-camisweirdashell yes you can see moments in which he completely tunnels and doesn't consider his surroundings, this is the only reason I'd call Guma, Viper, and Elk better atm
Fellow EU fans, before laughing at TL, remember that we'll be next on the chopping-block. On top of that, there's even a chance that TL will beat Fnatic in the lower bracket. I do believe in Fnatic, but the gap isn't as large, so it's a real possibility.
is anyone here more ashamed of our teams performance more than the literal warcrimes our countries have done in the past {us and canada} like yeah, we've bombed kids in yemen, but have you seen our Na teams international?

NA should use intermediate bots instead of their teams vs CN/KR will save us the time and embarrassment
Speaking of bots if TL invested in those expert RIOT bots in AI games I believe they would have cs'ed better than Yeon in this series.
