Korean casting saying they're very surprised Fnatic lost. Fnatic is a highly rated team, they're surprised an NA team was able to beat them, highlighting the corki save on Vi. The entire cast was on jest, a kinda condescending attitude making fun of nasus the entire game on how he was just carried doing literally nothing.


That was how old school Nasus was played. AFK farm for 20-30 minutes, join in on teamfights when possible, appear 40 minutes into the game and Q for 800 damage.

Well if the game goes on 40 minutes it's because your nasus is stacking Qs and not helping your team.

He was Vulcun's plan B, if they had failed to finish a game yet again.

The game isn't played that way anymore. If your plan is to reach 40 minutes you will lose 90% of your games. Better to compound your advantages for your entire team rather than one person and have your team 4v5.

It's not their plan. Their plan is to rock the early game as they always do, but since they are notoriously terrible at closing out games, they picked this Nasus playstyle, so if everything comes to the worst, at least they'll have a terminator. Hey, at least they are aware of their weaknesses, and tried to compensate it - maybe not the best solution, but better than repeating the same mistakes over and over again.

I guess the European meta of sitting on a 15k gold lead for 45 minutes doesn't work. Oh well.

Trash talking NA is more something NA guys do in my experience. Which is why I dont have a problem with this btw. If they trash talk their own region they can trash talk EU as well if they want.


I like this style. Trash talk everyone~

Also, when you have control of both jungles, doing that slow push/Q farm actually just is denying farm from Fnatic.

No he didn't get cut, but they are playing some tricky mind games here. Homme has improved so much.

I think the whole supposed EU superiority complex is due to NA's lack of results last season compared to EU consistently having strong showings at international events prior to s3. However, I think Worlds is showing that EU is suffering from isolation in terms of keeping up with changes in the meta.

Fnatic, in spite of doing well in EU, really misses Rekl-Rated for internationals it seems.


That had NOTHING to do with the bot lane. Sigh, do people actually watch the games?


You are playing vs. Zuna. Your botlane needs to carry. Yelow-zu cannot carry.

I mean, you are right, that was a win 100% for Vulcan. But the point is they won almost every aspect, whereas if Fnatic had an elite botlane... parity.

Puszu still not getting any credit... sigh, would've been the samescenario with Rekkles as well. 1-0-1 CORKI, who comes to your lane with a Phage, good luck with that.

I understand reapered's criticism though, if he just shoved the lane, Vulcun could group for 5 more often, but the game was sort of a wash anyways, so farming nasus to deny farm was just fine.

Except the Koreans, who we revere as Gods. We are on our way to completing the cycle of BW and becoming true TL elitists.

Puszu is a fkin beast, I like him more than I like Rekkles.
It's just that fail lvl1+laneswap snowballs super hard, Vulcun didn't snowball nearly as fast as they could have.
