Yo, there's no way this is their own translator. He doesn't know anything about league. Are you sure this is correct information?

People want to be all edgy and stuff, rooting against the perceived fan favorites. It is actually quite amusing to watch.



doesnt explain the insults and all that venom in general


It's a counter balance to EU fans who thought Fnatic had a chance on top of having zero understanding of Chinese teams (omg they're just aggressive!)

Also people like Monecristo who is not a EU fan gave Fnatic a chance. It is an entirely reasonable assumption. If you are so sure of your opinions, go make some money.


It's less about thinking Fnatic can win (but they weren't going to win) and more about people not knowing anything about LPL (understandably because it's not at the most accessible) time and then people just saying stupid shit about Chinese teams.


BUT AGGRESSION? CHINESE? AGGRESSION?! I dunno, it just seems to me like capitalizing on mistakes in lane phase.


Chinese laners just are incredibly strong after being in solo queue and never having good junglers.

He may know some basic stuff. pdd said they didn't want fnatic to get 剑魔 which is aatrox in china. So it was possibly a mis-pronounciation to ‘Alex'. But yeah he sucks lol

I think China in particular is notorious for very bad junglers relative to other reasons. I know we all think about Lovelin from OMG during Worlds (but he was actually a support), but let's not forget Lucky from Royal (god what a shitlord) or Clearlove from WE when he threw the game numerous times against CLG.eu.

Well the teams need a translator for everything from getting food/checking in to hotels/flying/everything else outside of league. He could just be a guy the team have to deal with everything non-chinese during the trip, and the interviews are just a sub-point in his job description.

All fnatic had to do was play safe and go to lategame, instead they feed in 2 lanes and yellowstar getting caught 3 times in a row and peke greeding twice after a safe kill, and now we have to tolerate a bunch people saying they had no chance. Talk about being result oriented...

I think experience and preparation won IG that game. They have a clear level one strategy prepared. That level one strategy was very simple: you show up at each of your lanes at the beginning, making your opponent to think that it will be a regular opening, while you lane swap at the very last minute. Then the top player of the other team is screwed.

This was used by one team during this season of LPL, possibly even against IG.

Montecristo has a history of making horribly uninformed opinions on the Chinese scene lol.

At least he's aware of it. In a podcast with Thorin they were talking about the All Star teams and when it came to China, Monte was like "Uuuh...*confused shrug*"
