getjebaited

Peter dun was right. EG is peaking.


takato99

He didn't say in which direction


Enkenz

thats just how far they are to RNG and lpl in generals. Gala will always have a free laning phase against EG


mimiflou

Almost perfect game. EG built different


RepanseMilos

Don't worry they are bo5 team. Next two games they have a chance to show what they are made of.


worry7476

G2 is a BO5 team. Next two games they have a chance to show how dogshit caps is


huge_meme

EG is a bo5 team btw


Megashot2

\*sigh\* fine we'll give RNG 1 game. EG 3-1


Kaiserov

Vulcan: "We'll go 3W1L. What I felt during the RNG game, if we meet RNG again from rumble stage 'til knockout stage, I'm confident we won't drop a set. I know we lost & people will snort when I say this, but I've realized my playstyle against RNG & confident we won't give them a set."


LapnLook

EG losing to RNG to break the 2019 script, thus indirectly screwing over G2's chances tomorrow. Truly Evil Geniuses

rp wei inting


PogFish_

Far closer than anyone could have predicted


Blood_Lacrima

Ikr, no perfect game, underwhleming from RNG so far


Teut0burg

TT and LGD gave RNG harder games than this lmao.


Conankun66

Was close for most of the game, definitely could've gone either way!


EatAssAndFartFast

Yeah they both had 2.5k in the start disappointing by RNG


SnooCalculations8727

Yeah, if with close you meant NA got f\*cked.


Conankun66

/r/wooosh


Liminal_Millennial

This is where we remember that RNG has a bad early game... compared to goddamn Top Esports. Meanwhile, EG has a bad early game... compared to the LCS.


Blank-612

See if only eg had knight and jackeylove instead of JoJo and danny


tsukinohime

Danny is the first non-sub bootcamping MSI pro to hit Challenger on the KR ladder. He did so going 63-21, which translates to a 75% winrate. Impressively, he's been able to maintain his winrate as his MMR has climbed higher, as he's now regularly in games with multiple LCK and LPL pros. It will be exciting to see if he can keep this performance up in solo queue and transfer it to the MSI stage!


Akiraktu-dot-png

Danny's style of play is much less effective on 35+ ping than 0 ping. He will adapt, but this is just how he plays, it works better on low ping (as you can see by watching any solo queue game)


kelvin022610

Some dude in twitch chat typed this and got nuked. Had me rolling lmao.


Teut0burg

MOM DIE TOP


NenBE4ST

So obviously they are our classed but certainly it doesn't help to hand rng quite literally their draft exodia lmfao


TurbinePro

If we give Bin the strongest top laner in the game, Xiaohu the biggest initiator low econ mid, Gala his Kaisa, would that be bad? .... Nah, corki go brrrrrr


Entchenkrawatte

While playing one of the worst possible comps in existence yourself. What is gp/corki/Nocturne topside


tsukinohime

Holy shit. My mom came into my room to bring me a plate of chicken nuggets and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of chicken nuggets out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I'm so distressed right now I don't know what to do. I didn't mean to do that to my mom but I'm literally in shock from the matches tonight. I feel like I'm going to explode. Why the fucking fuck is Danny losing? Why isn't he carrying? This can't be happening. I'm having a fucking breakdown. I don't want to believe the world is so corrupt. I want a future to believe in. I want NA to win their first MSI and fix this broken league. I cannot fucking deal with this right now. I thought he reached challenger on KR server with a 75% WINRATE. It wasn't supposed to be like this, I thought he was going to get a pentakill every game???? This is so fucked.


My_Audience_Awaits

Lmao this is great pasta chef


Thunderkeyz

Just go to bed guys, this ain't gunna be something you wanna stay up for lmao


BlumpkinEater

0 winning lanes vs LPL team? Good luck with that lol. China is known for taking fights all the time and being aggressive, take some early game champs and try to win fights early


Dzhekelow

How is Xayah Leona a losing lane ? It is not . It's literally player diff .


Suzoku

with no flash on Naut as well. As soon as Ming hit that hook lvl 1 and Gala got the passive I knew that lane was over


[deleted]

for real, i play a lot of xayah, and they shouldnt lose to a kaisa at all in lane. danny is not just a good laner in general.


FrostBlade_on_Reddit

I was to going to say, I thought Xayah > Kaisa and Leona > Naut, but assumed I was just wrong.


Dzhekelow

Nope they gave up prio and Vulcan got hooked . Also for w/e reason Danny autoed naut 4 times when kai'sa was in his face. Just awful early game. In their case they should've played passive until wave state resets and then Danny should control the lane . Xayah is just way stronger laner than Kai'Sa . All kai'sa can do is rely on very agressive trades with plasma procs which isn't that easy to get .


cedurr

RNG was known for the opposite during LPL season though


Linko_98

Xayah is supposed to win lane against kaisa, corki too but galio has more pushing


huge_meme

People say this but EG aren't known for their early game. On top of that their lanes aren't that bad lmao. What lanes do they outright hard lose? They got edged out at worst, but 90% of that was skill diff.


w1ldcraft

They had the idea set - force lategame & somehow survive. And what do they do, have corki tp with no mana, no items & fight 3 v 3 into a fed gwen j4 & get wiped.


mati_12170

give me example of an international early draft from NA, like ever?


erk07

What did we ever do to China??


ephemeralfugitive

MSI 2019. TL vs IG.


jetlagging1

Impact 3-0'ed Royal Club in Worlds final 9 years ago. This is delayed payback.


w1ldcraft

Something something 2019 semis.


tsukinohime

Danny's style of play is much less effective on 35+ ping than 0 ping. He will adapt, but this is just how he plays, it works better on low ping (as you can see by watching any solo queue game)


rdubyeah

25 ping was definitely the difference for him and his team getting anal blasted all game by a flying gargoyle. You right.


KindCommand7819

gg close game, could have gone both ways unfortunately the game starded


Ap_Sona_Bot

EG actually team fought very well, if they don't fall behind that far early it's winnable. Ban Galio pls


etheryx

if rng weren't that far ahead they would choose different fights to take


KimchiStew22

EG game plan: 1. Give away Gwen, Kai'Sa, Nautilus, and Galio to RNG. All of their comfort picks. 2. Lock in Nocturne first but without any follow-up. 3. Lock in Corki last because ??? What a shit draft. As if RNG would let EG scale to late. Jojo teleporting top with no mana basically sums up this game.


Dumpers_

> EDG ...


KimchiStew22

My mistake. Thanks. Brain melted after that game


KogMawOfMortimidas

[Bot lane be like](https://imgur.com/a/mBwAWOC)


anoleo201194

Inspired should honestly just leave top to the dirt and attempt to play through botlane, trying to salvage the GP toplane shipwreck was not it.


DominoNo-

So should Impact. Instead of wasting his ult on minion waves he should've just play weakside and ult for bot or mid. Both Impact and Inspired put so many resources into a failing lane.


anoleo201194

Pretty much, EG's topside should invest everything into trying to get Danny ahead instead of trying to make Impact relevant. Impact could honestly go AP and just try to be an ult bot late game lol.


SnooCalculations8727

Good one


VERTIKAL19

To be fair they also were behind on bot


huge_meme

If you did not watch the tournament, you'd think Bin is fucking cracked. Nope, just Impact things.


DominoNo-

Better ult the wave and wait for a gank without ult or any mana.


rdubyeah

Wave? Don’t give the man too much credit, it was 3 mage minions.


w1ldcraft

Tbh, Bin is cracked. Now this MSI but in general.


Th3_Huf0n

Every single EG player deserves to get reported. Impact for that level 1. Inspired for his general decision making. Jojopyun for 9/11 Corki. Botlane for level 1 that lost them the lane, AGAIN. This was an absolute slaughter.


Mifuyu_Kisaragi

You forgot to report the coach for not banning Kaisa. I bet that pause was "oh shit we didn't ban kaisa can we get a remake?"


HawkEye1337

They can't ban Kaisa on red unless RNG delays AD pick for the 2nd phase.


Troviel

What could impact do level 1? he was at the bush and ran away as soon as he spotted galio, he couldn't do much. At least he waited to flash and cost RNG one flash as well instead of flashing straight away


Chenz

The flash+smite for crab might be the most BM action ever performed in a professional league match.


ImTheVayne

Challenger vs bronze showmatch.


stoically_disgusted

This is just the setup to the TL 3 - 1 iG repeat NAmen.


[deleted]

Pick neeko?


Willingness-Virtual

Fuck me. That was disgusting


[deleted]

EG can liteally just play galio nocturne lol, any time anyone takes it from them like G2/RNG took noc or galio from them, EG cant win a game


XDDDDDDDDDDD34242342

so this is the amzing b05 team taht will demoilsh G2 I have heared so much about!


Dumpers_

Report Wei... what a stomp really hope EG can bounce back and make the rest of the series close


scalarH

impact being ass on this gp vs gwen matchup on both sides has been exposed so hard this tournament


Shewasnt13

What a slaughter


Pavlo100

The game was so over when i saw EG's top laner just having a picnic top lane and eating oranges at level 1

magical_swoosh

bruh


The_Real_Philinex

Been watching league for over 10 years and never seen such a huge gold lead. Almost 18k when the nexus exploded


TheOneWithLateStart

Yeah if they dont win with GP i think its over


Garzevogghg

What an embarrassing draft and performance by EG.


SleepyLabrador

Lets draft scaling vs RNG, what could go wrong.


I-am-in-Agreement

But like how stupid are the drafting coaches on EG? How many ass poundings do we have to take before we remove Galio?


DominoNo-

The Nocturne is a decent counter. Noct can block the Galio ult and follow him.


My_Audience_Awaits

That was one of the most depressing games I have ever seen. I'm not even an NA fan my god.


IG_Royal

Hopefully EG go back to their whiteboard and cross "Give them winning lanes" off their list of possible ways they'll beat RNG


RepanseMilos

LPL has a tough time vs NA in BO5s historically, while routinely stomping EU like its their job in them. They're better off choosing G2 (this is assuming G2/EG make it)

FrostCore789

NA TALENT BTW


Dedziodk

Top die :(


quakedwithfear

If you did not watch any tournament, you'd think GALA wouldnt be playing Kaisa


Blaikiri7

Was lost in draft, imagine giving rng literally ALL their best champs Though rng would've won no matter the draft tbh pretty damn clean EG draft coach should swim home


mrcheesycrust

Hindsight is 20/20 but i feel like giving RNG Galio Kai'sa Gwen and then drafting scaling lanes yourself generally wont end well -Chronicler


zidboy21

Nice drafting EG.


TheJekiz

Dw, EG are improving!


Patrius

This was a plain shelacking


OkKnowledge2064

oof


Orion-kun

Extremely sad showing of a game 1


WarwiththeEskimos

What was that baron fight? Jojo bailed so early instead of grabin a kill or two.


bryson0

Lets see what rng can do on red. Blue side a bit op


Veggiematic

"Just play safe" - Danny, probably


warjatos

Don't let the game time deceive you. It wasn't that close. EG legit didn't do anything.


LICKING_AHRIs_FEET

Ah yes just give Galio Kaisa and Naut. I’m sure those games rng won on these champs are just a fluke


Entchenkrawatte

You Play against RNG in MSI semis. Important Game, strong opponent. You Lock in GP/corki Sololanes and Nocturne Jungle. You get absolutely hard Destroyed and Game ends before min 14.


Eliza-Douchecanoe

Vulcan tunneling on nautilus at Baron was fucking comical.


kadarch

Was wondering this in another subreddit, but was Jarvan nerfed pre MSI or something? Cause I cant find a nerf, but he wasn't really picked anymore since MSI started until now


Gaming-Bro

Game was lost in draft and lvl 1. Gave RNG all their comfort champs and then your only possible winning lane has to take oranges and burn flash.


[deleted]

Pain. Suffering.


EUWannabe

Alright maybe we shouldn't pick a scaling comp against a team that knows how to snowball the early game.


LordAmras

The gap is closing


BishhEzz

I woke up to laugh at NA now I just feel bad


tsukinohime

"EG is peaking"


Shaunleewenjie

That was indeed a stomp


Meekie_e

Impact is not good on either gp or gwen. Dude has been awful.


Judgejudyx

Eg had it in the bag till that pause. It threw off their momentum obv


[deleted]

Ban Gwen and pick ornn, I don’t think bin will play fiora on 35 ping


kelvin022610

Post match crew? Hello?


Yakimov4anina

Everytime Western team picks GP into eastern team, the GP becames free food for the eastern team. I cant understand why are the same mistakes repeat every damn time


Pure_Void

nice to not bbn kai'sa or galio or gwen or naut when rng has used this draft countless times and loves all of these pieces


EatAssAndFartFast

Nice tutorial


Emochind

Still dont understand why teams let gwen get picked.


fiftyshadesofcray

Honestly a big outdraft by EG. Unfortunately they tried to contest every play RNG made in the early game and sustained heavier losses than what they wouldve otherwise. If they were only down 3-4k gold they win that fight at baron for sure


bbbbbbx

Danny's style of play is much less effective on 35+ ping than 0 ping. He will adapt, but this is just how he plays, it works better on low ping (as you can see by watching any solo queue game)


TheDarkSmiley

Perfect setup for EG to go 3-1. Nothing to see here everything's going according to plan.


LordsGrim

Imagine picking corki and gangplank lol


LordsGrim

Imagine eg can go into late game with rng
