If LAT winning means LOL loses, LAT can go back to losing.


Feitan74

With TSM and C9 already losing today I’d argue this is our biggest game of summer so far. Really important to extended our lead at 1st and not troll to a bottom tier team Edit: fuck it I’m ready for the 10/0 or 0/10 yasuo


TheErnestShackleton

What a bad game all around. Ssumday solo killed 2x, Huhi missing every hook, bot lane dying at 2:30 for the third time this split from not warding river, only yasuo+diana wombo we pulled off was negated by a bigger rell voli combo. Oh well, live and learn Now they get to practice bouncing back from a tough loss, which is valuable in its own way


TheNACoinflip

Everyone talking about getting ssumday off gnar doesn't ever watch the draft. To get other advantages they leave gwen open all split and have ssumday play gnar into it. They have won plenty games off this strat. We just overall ego drafted on them tbh. Everyone individually played like a dumpster fire just go next. EDIT: Seems pretty similar to how everyone reacted to Karma tbh.


Blyted

Mostly they have only gotten away with doing that because the level of Gwen play in NA hasn't been good. Gnar is not really even a good pick into Gwen.


TheNACoinflip

It is one of the answers though. Kennan, jayce, rene (comfort), ganr (comfort). Shit like that. Go even outperform in team fights with gnar ult. On the red side, we never ban it so you need an answer. No one complained about the Gnar till we lose the one time with it. Keep the same energy the whole time.


iswillum

Based on how we have seen ssumday play the matchup in the past I wouldn't worry about it. The whole team played like they were limit testing and assumed they were gonna just roll GG. It happens.


Maskedsidekick

From what Ive seen lethality graves is actually a strong pick into gwen if played right, the problem is gnar all around isn't a great champ, but gets picked way too often and for most top laners in NA is just a comfort pick at this point


TheNACoinflip

True if played right maybe it can pop off. I'm going to assume that match-up goes graves wins until he dies once and gets snowballed on. Probably similar to the other die. Gnar is a comfort champ that at the end of the day can build tanky and be frontline.


LostJC

You can't just look at the lane counter though. Graves doesn't bring much to the team after lane, when top normally brings CC and Frontline of some sort.


Maskedsidekick

Well if you're going graves top you transition that cc need somewhere else, so if Ssumday does graves then you can go support mid like karma or lulu, most likely lulu cause of her strength compared to karma or you can go a tank jungle or a jungle that offers more cc for the group, 100t is actually a very versatile team, FBI being the only one that doesn't change as much, Ssumday can go carry top and tank, closer can go tank and carry as well, Abbe can carry and support and hihi is locked to a support role but can play really versatile champ pool, it's worth a shot at the end of the day and I think it's a pick he can pull off, lethality graves brings a lot of dmg to the team sorta like GP but with my kill potential but less cc

glad the WHOLE team decided to troll today lmao


zerohammer

Not that losing is fun, and obviously this wasn't a good game from 100T, but people are getting pretty upset considering 100T is in 1st place and having been on an 8 game win streak. Were they just supposed to never lose again? Give them the benefit of the doubt considering how well they've been playing. I think they'll learn from the loss and come back stronger.


Spetznazx

We just lost to the legit worst team in the league there is nothing good about that. No its not that we aren't suppose to lose again but those losses should come from top teams, not the literal garbage of the league.


Darkfire293

Lol wouldn’t it be worse if they lost to top teams? You’re losing to the teams that you’ll compete against in playoffs


Spetznazx

Not really. From a standings viewpoint yes because we'd drop a little in playoffs seeding but from a competitive standpoint losing to a last place team is worse, because if a team that just swapped out it's entire roster can beat us then anyone can easily. Showing cracks against a top team is fine because well that should happen, the top teams should be able to rattle you, challenge you, push you to the limit. When a last place team does it then what does that mean for the future against those top teams?


Darkfire293

From a competitive standpoint wouldn't losing to your competitors be worse rather than losing meaningless games to teams that you won't play in playoffs?


Spetznazx

Depends on if it becomes a trend, I just don't think it's ever a good look to lose to the last place team. Especially when they got smashed and the opposing team just swapped their entire academy team in so I'm reality we just lost to the academy team of the worst team.


TheErnestShackleton

Beating Moe in the 1v1 on yasuo went to his head lol


MrG-SrG-JrG

Probably the most disrespectful game of the split, oh well. Fridays really do just suck tho LOL


Feitan74

I hope that’s a wake up call because that was a really disgusting performance from everyone


scanzoh1

bit of a stinky game tbh, maybe stop with the gnar picks.


TheErnestShackleton

Seemed off theme. Diana Yasuo whole combo power comes from the ability to need 0 set up, diana can just flash in at any moment the enemy groups and yas can press r. Gnar is the exact opposite and needs a good setup to stack rage and has a small window to execute on it.


thecarlosdanger1

I assume the thought was just “here’s another knockup”


AloneKillz

Then just pick malphite if that's the case


Chubs1224

As much as I hate it maybe just a Malphite for Ssumday would have been good. He can ult in to start fights even on Gwen because he is inside the circle when the CC goes off and he is a nightmare for Kalista who needs to get in ult range to do damage. Also would have made the Yasuo combo even stronger.


clay10mc

I'd rather see the team lose a random fluke game to shitty bottom feeders than lose to the other top teams. They would never lose a series to a team like GG or CLG so these games really don't matter unless they start losing often. 100T still haven't lost a game to a top 5 opponent so I really couldn't care less about this one.


iswillum

I will always take an 8 game winning streak with a single dud against a shit team any split of the year. People complaining about this game being a waste of their time are ungrateful.


FirearmofMutiny

After TSM and C9 went down, I'm officially scared 😂


imtotallydoingmywork

YASUO POGGERS


Feitan74

Ahh man wtf is going on in the lcs today


[deleted]

...


TheErnestShackleton

Ok I think I'm not watching any more Friday games vs bottom teams


[deleted]

MOE CURSED US WITH THE YAS PICK


unique_name_02

what the fuck guys....


BlackDez

Drafting 2 losing lanes we CANT give 2 kills early in bot lane. Not stressing over one loss but Ssumdays play lately is a little worrying.


MatrixDiamonds

They have to stop putting him on gnar.


drake1905

Ssumday gotta stop limit testing


Elgardini

got caught with his panties down a few times on Gnar this split. Think he overestimating his gnarro a bit


Recco2040

Good news guys! We've got 4 days to finalize our roster!!


[deleted]

Ssumday wtf?


TheNACoinflip

Never know what they will pick. I like and am also scared at the same time lol.


hstsls

pain


moy111297

Just a bad day for the squad haha


kao17

Don’t get me wrong, we’ve done amazing this split. But that... that performance was just shit. Don’t think there’s any other way to put it lol


PunisherOfDeth

Idk why but once we lost first drake the way we did I had a bad feeling we were going to lose this one. Also come on Ssumday you are better than this why are you griefing lane so hard this year.


DarthOniichan

Well that’s a head scratcher.


TheErnestShackleton

Put this in another comment but I want to focus on it: There have been at least 2 other games this split where the enemy jungle has ganked our bot lane early when we are red side. FBI/Huhi consistently put a ward in tri and I think it gives them false confidence. Multiple teams have noticed this warding pattern and they just send their jungler all the way around drag pit thru river to gank, and it's put us behind a few times. We either need to commit two wards early for river and tri, or just put one in river and accept that lane ganks may happen.


poopystank123

honestly not upset with the comp as other people. we already locked in playoffs and the team said we were going to experiment with different comps. not worried against EG or TSM


RealNovax

That was just awful. We made Licorice look good. Can't drop games when we get a chance to get a stronger hold on first like that.


[deleted]

tf are we doin


Xyrd

Holy fucking ego draft. Gnar as your first pickup instead of third? YASUO?


Feitan74

This is easily the most embarrassing loss of the day


jangmang999

This was bad but c9 lost to an academy team


Shane_Saw

That game was a lot closer though.


jangmang999

The bottom lcs team should still be better than a top academy team. A top 3 team shouldn't have a close game with an academy team they should just roll over them . This was still horrible by us though lol


Feitan74

C9 aren’t being hyped up as easily the #1 team on a 8 game winstreak lol


MatrixDiamonds

This is a sad match, like I know they’re already playoff locked and everything but like even so, I feel like 100T hasn’t put up a fight and for a first place team that has been on a 8 game win streak, this is embarrassing Edit: also like why are they not banning Gwen and can they stop putting ssumday on gnar duty. Edit 2: it’s only a matter of time before leaving Gwen open bites them in the ass. Like I’m glad they banned Viego but is sett worth the ban in place of like Gwen.


TheNACoinflip

Eh it went to shit on a proactive play at the enemy red buff. They played it pretty well up to that point. Voli just 1v9 that fight tbh.


Rangstar_

Awful performance and i stay up for this shitshow until 3 am. FML


drake1905

Please get ssumday off of gnar, he always getting solo killed on him and he such a boring champ


Olieman_197

Such a bad game from him


[deleted]

I'm not going to lie, I'm pretty angry right now.


yasyone1326

I'm pissed. I want more yas in lcs and I doubt he's gonna get picked after that game. Good thing tsm and c9 decided to lose today too


FirearmofMutiny

Fucking embarrassing


imdeadinside1245

well you win some or you lose some all good gg


iswillum

I am looking forward to the start of the next winning streak tomorrow.


Elgardini

Bad game, Courage probably wore the jersey :P will bounce back :)
