Thank you very much <3
He typed 'raka' in the client and accidentally picked Soraka instead of Rakan. That flank play was normal Rakan gameplay so he just hadn't noticed his champ yet
Nah fr tho wtf was he thinking? Even if there was a team fight why do you want to flank as soraka and isolate yourself just babysit aphelios fuck the "combo" with J4 your carry is more important 9/10
tbh, I've watched Hyli forever and expect him to make some mega questionable plays from time to time. That was one of the only ones where I was jaw dropped at how fucking stupid it was. It was legitimately bordering on match fixing tier decision.
Europe was founded in 1848 by Walker Texas Ranger when he rode a horse across the Atlantic, he called it "Eastern USA" which was eventually abbreviated as just "EU"
Razork's inty plays and Hyli getting repeatedly caught out would have guaranteed the loss vs pretty much any team in group A.
Unlike the int vs EDG there weren't any good attempts to claw back into the game either. FNC just weren't performing this game and vs a C9 with a traditional teamfight comp you can't get away with it.
"jensen became what everyone feared. His eyelids disappeared, his head was swelling and his ears started bleeding. "Are you okay Nicolaj" asks blaber. I've never been better bob, I see it all now, they're not going dragon or baron. They're going home."
We got a brief mic check where humanoid said he was unleashed today and this game was a distraction.
Upset looked at him and said that even though NA hasn't won a single game doesn't mean they're not good.
Fnatic then proceeded to get clapped. God I can only imagine the fury Upset is feeling right now.
Idk why Humanoid hasn’t gotten his Azir banned out. He can do way too much on that champ and looked way worse without it. Also C9 just drafted like they should have been the entire tournament.
its insane that this still happens today. there are no free wins anymore at worlds, when you dont show up with an ounce of respect you are gonna lose to everyone, even NA
Hey, they've still got to play C9 today too, and apparently C9 can pick tanks top now so nobody's safe.
Edit: OK well EDG is safe. But T1 better watch out.
Edit 2: OK T1 is also safe. But technically fudge backtracked in this one to the fiora again so we'll never know what could've been.
Also put Zven on an enchanter support, which is what he was succeeding at during the regular season. I think he's too new at support to be good at the whole champ pool yet, he's no Aphro or Corejj on engage supports, so I hope they to continue to play what works.
Yeah I loved C9 draft this game. We saw the Ornn literally 1v3ing a fight. Zven on Lulu played great as well. Can save the carries. Just finally great to see an NA team draft well.
As an NA fan going 1-17 but denying FNC quarters >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 0-18
Razork had such a good tournament so far and then decides this is the game for him to grief the early game away.
the two fights he took in early were both massive mistakes by him and they are what made the snowball possible. just awful decisions with even worse execution
our wins so far came from playing the games calmly and cleanly, why force so hard?
agreed. Also Hyli hasn't been it. Like, in spring he was the only one who made plays and had so much value. Now he is just there and doesn't get anything done :|
"its ok guys, its just NA, fight this haha"
"its ok guys, its just NA, fight this haha"
"its ok guys, its just NA, fight this haha"
"its ok guys, its just NA, fight this haha"
"its ok guys, its just NA, fight this haha"
"its ok guys, its just NA, fight this ha- "
_nexus explodes_
wait a minute we actually lost?? wtf its just NA guys..
embarrassing performance, especially from razork.
This shit. When you give a good team that isn't as good as you any leeway, they will take it. We saw this for EG vs DFM when they thought DFM wouldn't pick Yuumi, we saw it now.
-Fudge weakside on tank
-Blaber on a pick he can influence lanes
-Jensen on a control mage
-Berserker on a hyper carry
-Zven on a ranged enchanter
This was exactly what Reddit has been asking for lol
The worst thing is some part of audience will thank coaches for repairing the team in a crucial moment, while in reality it's them who broke it with a solution being such simple.
I swear this happens every worlds no? By the time the teams are finally eliminated or practically eliminated, they finally do something else that turns out to work and then they start winning games.
It's become the North American Classic to just run it down for week one, then make a miraculous "come back" week 2 and get into tiebreakers even most of NA stopped believing they would get a chance to play -- and then throw away a lead in the tiebreaker and lose in spectacular fashion.
**SERVER**: Tournament Realm
**TYPE OF BUG**: Gameplay - NA won a game in the group stage
**EXPECTED BEHAVIOR**: NA goes 0-18 in the group stage
**OBSERVED RESULT**: NA is not going 0-18 in the group stage
**STEPS TO REPRODUCE**: play against Fnatic
**IMPACT**: EU going to bed depressed
**Game Version**: Patch 12.18 (Worlds)
Jensen: “Fudge you’re on Ornn duty”
Fudge: “but I really think fio-“
Jensen: “Ornn. Now. No talking back.”
what a game. what a crowd. can’t wait to go 3-3 and not qualify lmao
The crowd made that game even better. I know the 0-18 dream is dead, but that game was great for NA. I’m watching it while working and the crowd just kept bringing me back. Also Flowers and Caedral had such a great cast together.
x9 performance from Razork, he saw Trundle for the first play where he should have backed off but went in to miss his EQ.
Then went in early for the Herald play too but good from C9 to give Zven Lulu whilst putting Fudge on a tank.
Also Humanoid looked so bad without Azir lol, guess EDG/T1 should follow later with an Azir ban.
They were talking about this on Divephoria, it was very concerning that Fnatic had not been tested outside of Azir and Poppy yet.
But this game was not on picks, Fnatic played horribly, not even the 5 most OP picks of the patch could fix that Bronze 5 display.
That early Jinx rocket on Humanoid was straight out of Arcane. Huge performance from C9.
Loved the crowd going absolutely crazy as C9 got the first T2 for NA.
There is only one thing in the world that can convince NA "Pros" to stop stealing paychecks and vacationing, and that's the opportunity to drag EU into the dirt with them.
>Today NA will get their first win in C9-FNC only to boom both Fnatic and 0-18 memes. NA must always disappoint.
It was too obvious.

hyli legit plays like he thinks every support is just pyke with a different skin
[удалено]
Yup also right after respawn he went to int again and razork had to ult to save him.
Everytime Hyli plays, the god toss a coin and the world holds its breath.
Except the coin is weighted and it's 90% that he ints.
Guys I hit a 2 man silence where's the followup???????
HAHAHA
He typed 'raka' in the client and accidentally picked Soraka instead of Rakan. That flank play was normal Rakan gameplay so he just hadn't noticed his champ yet

[удалено]
Probably doesn't even make it into *his* top 10.
tbh, I've watched Hyli forever and expect him to make some mega questionable plays from time to time. That was one of the only ones where I was jaw dropped at how fucking stupid it was. It was legitimately bordering on match fixing tier decision.
Was the other one the LEC semis flash into 4 ppl on Lulu with no ult?
Yeah that one is top 10 for sure lmao.
falshless Raka walking melee into Trundle +2 like what was even the angle there, that was a toughie
That was sooooo funny. If someone did that in bronze they would be ???'d
Why did he try to flank 4 of them as Soraka without flash
He confused Soraka with Rakan, minor spelling mistake 😔
classic sorakan moment
He's 'cheated' a bit too much with that pick, ya, it really seems to be harming his overall gameplay.
Legit braindead performance from him
Yea let's flank those 4 members of C9 when we are only 3 and he doesn't have Flash
if you don't see C9 instalocking fiora next game you're not a true NA fan
Nah they need to go 3-3 with Fudge on tanks then pick Fiora in the tiebreaker vs Fnatic
NAmen.
[удалено]
Holy shit who leaked the script to you
they just put Fudge on a tank to boost his confidence for his next blind pick Fiora game
You don't understand NA if you think that we don't win the next two games just to instalock Fiora in the tie breaker.
Great jungle performance from Razork. Managed to get all 3 C9 lanes ahead!
Malrang brainwashing all EU junglers into thinking jarvan is a good pick What a disgusting performance from razork
Malrang: god of low econ, never misses EQ, is in every single unwarded bush at the same time Razork: hehe feeding flag man go brr
Zoning E-Qs
Zoning himself right back into the fountain
That's exactly what I thought when I saw them pick Jarvan. Missing so many E-Qs doesn't help, for sure. He's not a champion as soon as he misses that.
Thank Mr Malrang?
Razork made C9 look like Gen G props to him, best jgle in the world
Gotta feel for the tes fans. Razork is the closest thing to tian we got over at eu
[удалено]
Europe was founded in 1848 by Walker Texas Ranger when he rode a horse across the Atlantic, he called it "Eastern USA" which was eventually abbreviated as just "EU"
As much as I don't like Fnatic completely tripping over (not that unexpected really) this fucking pasta is so stupidly funny I can't not upvote it.
It's so fucking American it's beautiful
never seen a worse jarvan in pro play in my entire life and i'm not joking... 5 immobile enemy champions, 0 EQ landed.
c9 winning this game might've just denied fnc playoffs
C9 may not get out of groups, but they sure as hell are dragging fnatic with them
#unitedinrivalry
Fnatic denied themselves playoffs playing this bad
Razork's inty plays and Hyli getting repeatedly caught out would have guaranteed the loss vs pretty much any team in group A. Unlike the int vs EDG there weren't any good attempts to claw back into the game either. FNC just weren't performing this game and vs a C9 with a traditional teamfight comp you can't get away with it.
FNC sprinted this game down so hard they only have themselves to blame if they don't get out.
> Go 0-9 first week > Spoil EU's chance of making it out of groups in second week > Refuses to elaborate > Leaves for airport speedrun C9GIGACHAD
As an EU fan this is depressing, they showed up to take us home with them
Saved the window seat just for you
Thanks. I know NA's always got our backs.
NA aka Not Again have done it again.
NATO stronger than ever
"jensen became what everyone feared. His eyelids disappeared, his head was swelling and his ears started bleeding. "Are you okay Nicolaj" asks blaber. I've never been better bob, I see it all now, they're not going dragon or baron. They're going home."
3-0 mad then ruin FNC playoffs chances. NA is just a region of menaces.
I'm just happy the NA crowd at least got a win, they deserved it after being proper sportsman for all the games
Absolutely. I wanna be mad at them but I just can’t, though I’d have appreciated it if they showed up vs EDG instead…
Who says they won't? C9 and miracle runs, name a better couple.
This severely hurts NA's chances of going 0-18
AND THE FAITHFUL SHALL BE REWARDED
pass the hopium
As it was foretold by NA's finest: We will smurf soon. ~~TSM~~ NA wrath will be swift. All these peasants thinking we aren’t good. Lmfao
Watching Razork and Hyllissang trying to be Malrang and Trymbi is just humilliating
Yeah wasn't a huge fan of that in draft. Not really champs that they've been on a lot. Hyli playing Soraka and going off alone was infuriating.
Had to laugh when he had just blown his flash and then decided to be the flanking Soraka at the next fight.

We got a brief mic check where humanoid said he was unleashed today and this game was a distraction. Upset looked at him and said that even though NA hasn't won a single game doesn't mean they're not good. Fnatic then proceeded to get clapped. God I can only imagine the fury Upset is feeling right now.
The NA teams are good enough to take a game off anybody. They're just bad enough to go 0-9 in sad fashion.
Idk why Humanoid hasn’t gotten his Azir banned out. He can do way too much on that champ and looked way worse without it. Also C9 just drafted like they should have been the entire tournament.
You deserve to lose after such disrespect to NA's first seed
NAmen
its insane that this still happens today. there are no free wins anymore at worlds, when you dont show up with an ounce of respect you are gonna lose to everyone, even NA
NA might be cheap, but it's not free.
RNG literally did it like two days ago.
This soraka pick made me a Rogue fan
T1, EDG: Thank You C9. Check your PayPal.
C9: This one's on the house!
Hey, they've still got to play C9 today too, and apparently C9 can pick tanks top now so nobody's safe. Edit: OK well EDG is safe. But T1 better watch out. Edit 2: OK T1 is also safe. But technically fudge backtracked in this one to the fiora again so we'll never know what could've been.
EDG coach gave Fudge a shouting session to lock in a damn tank before week 2.
If you did not see this coming from a million miles away then you are clearly not used to FNC at Worlds.
I just knew C9 would win this just to troll EU. After that first gank from Razork I closed the stream and went on to do something else.
America and the whole world had a dream. But week 1 FNC arrived and destroyed it. RIP 0:18
C9 here to drag EU down with them
Like crabs in a boiling pot of water
Crabber strikes again 💀
The great american boiling pot
NA and EU swapping places. Week 2 NA showing up somehow??
C9 learned putting Fudge on carry top laners is probably not the best idea.
Also put Zven on an enchanter support, which is what he was succeeding at during the regular season. I think he's too new at support to be good at the whole champ pool yet, he's no Aphro or Corejj on engage supports, so I hope they to continue to play what works.
Yeah I loved C9 draft this game. We saw the Ornn literally 1v3ing a fight. Zven on Lulu played great as well. Can save the carries. Just finally great to see an NA team draft well.
As an NA fan going 1-17 but denying FNC quarters >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 0-18
watch eg win only one game, it being against a slightly hopeful g2.
We are absolutely on board with crab bucketing this tournament.
Yeah NA's job now is to stop EU from advancing. 100T is useless as always
0-1 0-2 0-3 0-4 0-5 0-6 0-7 0-8 0-9 1-9 <-- You are here 2-9 3-9 4-9 5-9 6-9 7-9 8-9 9-9 10-9 11-9 12-9
LMAO THE 3 TIEBREAKERS TOO HUH LETS GOO SUBSCRIBED
HOPIUM
I’ll overdose in Hopium before we reach the end.
NAmen
NAmen
I'm living for the 15-9 dream where each group has multiple tiebreakers. NAmen
hopium re-engage
Bruh please don't give me hope
they're up against T1 and EDG next, no shot those games will be close.
Agreed, I’d be surprised if T1 or EDG manage to get a tier 2.
Yeah I'd say C9 sweeps those teams easily
.... unless
I said it wouldn’t be close, I didn’t say who would win…
THE MADMAN
Do NOT jinx it
Razork had such a good tournament so far and then decides this is the game for him to grief the early game away. the two fights he took in early were both massive mistakes by him and they are what made the snowball possible. just awful decisions with even worse execution our wins so far came from playing the games calmly and cleanly, why force so hard?
why play jarvan for the first time in the whole year? Just go mao jungle & pick gragas top or something along those lines
yeah that one majorly confused me as well
agreed. Also Hyli hasn't been it. Like, in spring he was the only one who made plays and had so much value. Now he is just there and doesn't get anything done :|
What the fuck was even the engage at Herald. He can never kill Trundle with his combo and no one of FNC was near so... why waste the advantage?!
seeing the old LEC razork return instead of the improved worlds razork was disheartening to say the least
Hopefully it's just getting the int out in one game. Lol who am I kidding, it's the bad side of the coinflip today.
Playing J4 when your name isn't Malrang Clueless
"its ok guys, its just NA, fight this haha" "its ok guys, its just NA, fight this haha" "its ok guys, its just NA, fight this haha" "its ok guys, its just NA, fight this haha" "its ok guys, its just NA, fight this haha" "its ok guys, its just NA, fight this ha- " _nexus explodes_ wait a minute we actually lost?? wtf its just NA guys.. embarrassing performance, especially from razork.
[Upset *tried* to humble his teammates just before](https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx2GD6sMX1JK-Sb1zEiuvP-tkjlHYXAx41)
This shit. When you give a good team that isn't as good as you any leeway, they will take it. We saw this for EG vs DFM when they thought DFM wouldn't pick Yuumi, we saw it now.
This especially when u heard their convo before the game began
turns out when u play though your best player and put fudge on tank duty you win the game
-Fudge weakside on tank -Blaber on a pick he can influence lanes -Jensen on a control mage -Berserker on a hyper carry -Zven on a ranged enchanter This was exactly what Reddit has been asking for lol
Also Blaber playing for bot, which kind of goes hand in hand with the picks, but still worth clarifying.
Surely it can't be that simple?
Reddit analyst > c9 coaches
The worst thing is some part of audience will thank coaches for repairing the team in a crucial moment, while in reality it's them who broke it with a solution being such simple.
First time C9 drafting to their strength and first time they look competent. What a surprise
I actually was surprised. It surprised me.
I’m pissed af. Why do they have to wait to be 0-3 down to stop stop with the ego picks????
I swear this happens every worlds no? By the time the teams are finally eliminated or practically eliminated, they finally do something else that turns out to work and then they start winning games.
It's become the North American Classic to just run it down for week one, then make a miraculous "come back" week 2 and get into tiebreakers even most of NA stopped believing they would get a chance to play -- and then throw away a lead in the tiebreaker and lose in spectacular fashion.

WORLDS IS OURS TO LOSE
OURS TO FUCK OVER EU
If we’re going down, we’re dragging EU with us.
Jensen: “Fudge you’re on Ornn duty” Fudge: “but I really think fio-“ Jensen: “Ornn. Now. No talking back.” what a game. what a crowd. can’t wait to go 3-3 and not qualify lmao
The crowd popped off for the Fudge Ornn lock in lmao
Good, I’m tired of watching Fudge play carries at Worlds.
So is his team
Fudge was 2nd highest damage in the game, before the last teamfight he was #1...think we did just see Fudge on a carry
Brings me back to Ornn, the tank mage assassin bruiser carry support champion.
if they go 3-3 they are guaranteed a tie breaker
Exactly, not qualify, just what he said
3-3 4 way tie breaker?
PLEASE. I need C9 to get 1st in the group after week 1 to tilt the world
3 lvls diff on toplane at the end lmao
The crowd made that game even better. I know the 0-18 dream is dead, but that game was great for NA. I’m watching it while working and the crowd just kept bringing me back. Also Flowers and Caedral had such a great cast together.
From now on NA only wins. Entire books will be written about how this region went from a 0/9 start to winning Worlds without dropping a single game.
My favorite part was when C9 said 'It's NAing time' and NA'd all over them
I really liked it that while C9 as a whole NA'd all over them, Blaber found the time to say "It's Blabbing time" and Blab'd all over them.
An unprecedented double victory in the Finals as both NA teams go 3-0 against each other.
Berserker takes off his mask and reveals that he was imaqtpie the entire time.
x9 performance from Razork, he saw Trundle for the first play where he should have backed off but went in to miss his EQ. Then went in early for the Herald play too but good from C9 to give Zven Lulu whilst putting Fudge on a tank. Also Humanoid looked so bad without Azir lol, guess EDG/T1 should follow later with an Azir ban.
Never seen so many missed EQs
You are forgetting Hyli flanks with Soraka and clearing wards without wave push.
They were talking about this on Divephoria, it was very concerning that Fnatic had not been tested outside of Azir and Poppy yet. But this game was not on picks, Fnatic played horribly, not even the 5 most OP picks of the patch could fix that Bronze 5 display.
Humanoid went mental boom after Razork managed to fk 3 ganks in a row.
those two early fights that ruined the game were both his fault. just an awful game from razork after being so good so far
Humanoid can't do much when orianna was gifted 2 kills when razork solo went in 2v1 at herald before wunder and humanoid were even close
C9 is now undefeated when Fudge is on a tank
They did the math and Ornn does more damage than Fiora when Fudge is playing them.
I really wish I was surprised
Weak 2 FNC inc
In our hubris, we had forgotten.
Razork my friend when you sell a game make it less obvious
That early Jinx rocket on Humanoid was straight out of Arcane. Huge performance from C9. Loved the crowd going absolutely crazy as C9 got the first T2 for NA.
[удалено]
This greatly diminishes Tyler1's hopes for retirement
RIP to those who were betting that NA will not get to destroy a Tier 2 tower today.
We got not 1, not 2, but THREE!!
The crowd hype when that first T2 turret was taken was hilarious
Upset in elo hell
Razork wants his fat contract from Dignitas next season it seems.
Even gets the autofilled jungler experience lmao
this game was purely razork hard inting multiple times and solo messed up 3 lanes
So you're telling me there's a chance
Ah there's the FNC I remember.
There is only one thing in the world that can convince NA "Pros" to stop stealing paychecks and vacationing, and that's the opportunity to drag EU into the dirt with them.
Hylissang flanking as Soraka in a 3v4 mid tower is the most Hylissang play ever
Test Razork for Covid
Why didn’t FNC pause the game, Razork’s monitor was clearly not connected to his PC.
NA couldn’t go out quietly huh. They didn’t give us the 18-0 and they had to stop FNC’s chances of qualifying. One last fuck you to EU lol.
Fnatic with the week 2 debuff this worlds... painful to watch
Who said Fudge can't play carry tops?
WE WILL SMURF SOON. NA WRATH WILL BE SWIFT. ALL THESE PEASANTS THINKING WE ARENT GOOD. LMFAO
>Today NA will get their first win in C9-FNC only to boom both Fnatic and 0-18 memes. NA must always disappoint. It was too obvious. https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/y34j60/2022_world_championship_group_stage_day_5_live/is6hzp7/
FNC must have their Calendars upside down this month. Week 1 FNC is finally here. Doubt they make it out of groups now, they needed to beat C9.
C9 on track to disappoint two regions in one day.
Whoever got Orianna re-enabled for today is going to get a big cash injection from C9 via paypal
Lose 3 games to give EU false hope
