such a good memory, i remember this and IG v Fnatic as my favorite finals, because a friend made a bet and choose both fnatic and g2 so i won without even pick a team the skins for each champ (the RP at least)
This just reminds me that FPX got robbed that one year w/ the same roster except Nuguri. I really wish Tian didn’t get injured or Bo didn’t get banned for match fixing 😢
Lol tian was insulting nuguri's family despite running it down at spring finals while nuguri was beating xiaohu into the ground.Then the the china media turn it around kekw.
As a 2019 & 2020 FPX fan, it’s still crazy to see how much they flex at ban pick. 11:54 if you don’t know the meta, FPX team looks like they have an ADC and 4 other champs could go anywhere
I remember staying up all night during Uni exams week to watch this at 6am and going to bed so upset man. I'm really lowkey hopeful this year G2 has Caps and Miky back with arguably higher ceilings across the board except maybe BB. I dunno maybe they can grow into their best form imo especially with bo3 and bo5 in EU now and more games.
I still belive they got lucky that year, T1 and G2 didn't play Quiana and it limited their drafts too much(on top of pantheon ban). And true final was FPX vs IG that year. G2 FPX finals was so onesided, and all 3 games was decided in draft already.
i am T1 fan, i cheer G2 at 2019 final cuz they beat T1 so they have deserve for worlds win. and if they won at worlds g2 get grand slam on 2019.. but they lost.. so it was so sad... g2 win t1 so easily but how fpx win against g2 3:0..
Even if EU won Worlds, there would be no difference. There is only one team in history of LEC could win Worlds, and only 5 of LEC pro players on the same team could possible of winning Worlds. However, look at LCK and LPL, they are producing new Worlds winning players and teams every single fking year. If EU are not improving as a whole, they will makes no difference, but this year format changes is a good start.
FPX has the weirdest, trollest playstyle in LoL as I remember and Doinb is the heart this team. Never understand what they did and how they got wins from that, they made League look so dull and crazy, just like a casual kiddy game lol, never know they are genius or other team just be so confused then choked hard =)))
this was by far the most boring worlds finals i’ve been aware of. there wasn’t a single moment in the entire series that G2 ever felt remotely in it. Just the easiest walk in the park ever for FPX from the first minute idk how anyone found this finals hype
Why? No need to be delusional... Just respect the fact that China and South Korea are miles ahead in terms lf League of Legends, and be happy that EU > NA is statistically and logically a correct statement 😄🙂
This series hurt so much to look back at. iG 2018 wasn't as bad because even though it was 3 stomps, it was clear they were just on a completely different level to Fnatic so it wasn't really that shocking to see them lose. But this series, initially the reaction was that it was another stomp because it was a 3-0, but actually G2 were so much closer than people gave them credit for. These games were so competitive for so long, like even the first game it was like 32 minutes before FPX got any sizable advantage, and even then it still felt winnable for G2. What could have been man...
Both bo5's G2 had vs SKT at MSI and Worlds in 2019 were some of the best series ever imo. SKT the classic LCK controlled team with strong fundamentals vs G2 playing a very onorthodox style ingame where they traded alot instead of contesting objectives and ofc had very spicy drafts.
Even if FPX played against G2 10 series on this exact day of the final, FPX would still win all 10 series, and most of the times they would win cleanly 3/0 or 3/1... G2 was simply not showing up to the final at all. They got gapped since min 1 from game 1 to the last min in game 3... It was sadly a diagusting performance. It really hurts, but that's just how the cookie crumbles, sometimes you just can't play well... On this Final, none of the G2 players played well sadly, just unlucky
@@karlrose405 If you watched thoorins podcast with perkz he sad they would have been better if they didnt scrim at all before finals, he said they were in their on heads making their drafts too overcomplicated and bad. They also only scrimed like academy teams he said which didnt help them at all
@@salutcava2262 That's so cap, leave it to western fans to make shit up. "FPX is a weaker version of G2." Absolute copium overdose, the west has no wins in a final vs an Eastern team.
Something that really stands out to me in watching this series is the lack of dragon soul. The end game for game 1 feels so different since teams aren't forced into all or nothing fights for soul drake. And without soul it still felt like G2 could come back in the game if they found the angle.
Actually I think Cathedral said it best. This worlds probably had the most skill expression out of every other. It is what's been missing for a while because of the stale meta.
Its actually because roaming actually matters instead of game being fixed on draft and bot lane being dumbed down to a few champs. I rmbr i hated and love this meta the most as a jgler since midlaners either pick galio sylas , tf sylas or pyke vs ___ mid. And most jglers r either kz , evelynn , lee or j4. Just everyone nuking 1 another , counter jgling 2v2 in the middle of the river all the time. Perma top prio for herald to rush 1st tower. And i perma banned graves. Good time.
Tian and LWX both peaked in this very series. One carried the early-mid and the other secured the lategame teamfights. G2 couldn't stand a chance against that determination.
I Sayed up to 3 in the morning or something like that I was trying to stay a wake for so lone before the game started. I just remember how bummed I was after I couldn't finish the 3 game. it hurts me to go back and watch 2019 G2 content, there was a lot of good but I can only remember how it ended. It was my favorite induration of any team I known. in 2015-16 stared to watch/play League G2 was the first team I watched.
@Kobe O SKT T1 in 2015 didn't win MSI, so immediately they couldn't win the golden year. Damwon Kia, in 2021, didn't win MSI or Worlds, so they weren't close. Golden year means to win every event in a calendar year. G2 is the closest since they are the only team to win both splits, msi, and make finals.
DoinB and Caps in this series was one of the most entertaining mid matchups in league history. The confidence, the skill, the flexibility, you really felt like they could do or play anything, it was exhilarating! And now....well, ya know, azir.
Crisp just casually channeled prime Mata in this series. Bro was putting in some WORK on that Thresh goddamn
He was like that the whole year, one of the best seasons ever from a support player. Him and tian were probably the main reason fpx was so good.
Doinb's Nautilus mid was such a fucking flex. I was sad the perfect year dream died, but this final was epic.
I just remember Perkz saying that if caps went a Norma mid like ori they would be so fine that game
This just made me realise how much i hate the tp changes, like there was so many playmaking opportunities for pro play back then lol
By the time you can tp as top laner the game might be decided in a fight you can't join. All they need to do is lower the time even to just 9 or 10 minutes into the game

No doubt, season 8 and 9 were the best period of league. I've been a fan of Doinb ever since he pulled out Nautilus mid, guy is a beast.
That meta was the best ever teams could be so creative and the 2 most creative teams were facing off in the final, best year of pro league!!
