this just shows how far ahead Korean esports scene is. They even have a word for literally getting ganked by mom "MamaCritical", your team would probably sympathise with you and not report for AFK. FeelsGoodMan
+nep2uk From what I've heard from other videos/players they are way more toxic, but not in the same way. They heavily criticize each other for misplays (even at lower ranks) and will forfeit a lot earlier. The pros always say its better to train there because the games don't get drawn out as long as NA/EU so you can see where you went wrong from what you were practicing and queue again. NA is considered so bad even to EU because its the "fun" and "everyone is here for a good time" region. So people troll a lot even in the top tier and make some of the games a clown fiesta. If you AFK in Korea they'd probably just all report you and forfeit as fast as possible. :P
+Brent Adkins You just made the FeelGoodMan to a FeelsBadMan. Still in games its a lot better to say MamaCritical and Alt+Tab instead of saying nothing or trying to explain your situation.
You gotta love GBM. I liked how entertaining he was ever since he entered NA LCS. I'm not a huge NRG fan but best of luck to them. I hope GBM will be able to get over the greatest wall and make it to worlds.
+ScrattleGG what about skåne. were also an country by ourselves, but just because we are a part of "sweden" we're considered like that for the rest of the world. its really sad. Sucks that stockholm won the war back in the days.
+ScrattleGG Actually we're quite large in e-sports, especially CS:GO and LoL. I think we're the european country with the most players in NA, and they're all highest caliber. I think we're also the country with the most in the EU LCS, i might be wrong there tho. PS: We're only a total population of 5.6 million, to put it into perspective for outsiders.
+ScrattleGG denmark, been there twice and its my second most favorite country. your politician is great, people are great and excuse me but you have the most beautiful people on earth lol
This was an incredibly heart-warming video. The father keeping up to date on LCS is adorable, mine just smacks me over the head for being a bronze scrublord.
i like him :D thats why i would like NRG to be a NA LCS top team... i just love to see players as cool as GBM succeed :) ps: how do i grow my hair like that ? im chinese
+FluffytheComedyKing yeah hunders of thousands are watching twitch and only several thousands are spamming it with dumb repetative stuff, but here on youtube, you are the one and only with that stupid cover photo and comments
"One day you will be faced with a big crisis. A giant wall appear before you. You must go over that wall." - GBM That wall was at the baron pit, and he couldn't make it over with a zed shadow. So he had to walke all the way around :/
Unfortunately that fail was a lot more important than we think, had he made that jump Jax could've Q'd on him and they could of instantly started taking out the baron. Instead he failed which made his team have to do baron a few seconds later allowing lee to steal. Granted ammumu should of properly smite but w.e lol.
+PlopBlobBlopUnderWater Heheh Well... Most of GBM's father generation don't even know LOL exists. Just try to be grateful for knowing the name Bjengsen and he came from one of northern european countries.
I feel that when Korean players move to Euro or NA, they seem to be much more happier and that's really good for them. I know this is pro leauge and they have to be serious, but Korea environment is really stressful to be in. Staying in that environment for a long time, they will never be the same
+Nam Phan well to be honest MOST asian cultures are like that. japan is no exception but i don't think they play league though but yeah asian cultures are really strict on what their kids do all the time whether it be esports or becoming a doctor.
ZenswayGaming No many can be successful. Even if they did, that "successful" didn't mean much anymore because they have been through so much to the point that they don't care about it anymore, it just there for people to see. On the other hand, many people have committed suicide because of the pressure from family and the society ( Japanese specificly)
+Nam Phan ahh i see. yeah i heard that the japanese suicide rate was up due to the pressure of having to work hard from the family etc...which is not good.
I like GBM the best out of the DRIVE guys, this time around. His personality is kind of like mine and it was sad when he tried to comfort Altec by saying "it's okay", and Altec's response is "no it's not, I know you're angry" and GBM's response to that is to sigh, and say he's sorry and that they will win next time. I like that. He's a really cool guy, it seems.
hey riot, just some feeback here, you should probably do a drive episode on hai, as he's been in it for 4 years AND he's done 3 roles in the past 3 years. that takes drive, just saying! :P
Even GBM's dad can pronounce Bjergsen properly
+Pingu appak asian people , man..
well done. really cool how his dad keeps up with eu and na lcs shows he really took in interest in his sons passion.
Probably the dopest korean ever playing in NA LCS.
+Pat Edge Dopest Korean ever period.
+diego diaz this
and then u realize huni is in NA
Gonçalo Canhoto gbm doper, huni funnier
+Pat Edge he's my favorite personality we imported in recent years.
His parents are amazing for supporting him, I like that his dad knows alot of LCS!! That's awesome!
great story from a great dude. I love getting to know individual player backgrounds. His mom is Op
"c9 game hurt me the most"
as sneakys giant mug comes into frame.
LOL GANKED BY MOM
10/10
+m nguyen Did you just realise now that GBM is Ganked By Mom? :P
+Andreas Fjeld sadly 24 people did
+m nguyen i just realized LOL
+m nguyen na kids zzzzz
this just shows how far ahead Korean esports scene is. They even have a word for literally getting ganked by mom "MamaCritical", your team would probably sympathise with you and not report for AFK. FeelsGoodMan

Haha all love man. Just giving my two cents.
Before seeing this I never put any thought into this team... Now I will be rooting for them in the LCS!
You gotta love GBM. I liked how entertaining he was ever since he entered NA LCS. I'm not a huge NRG fan but best of luck to them. I hope GBM will be able to get over the greatest wall and make it to worlds.
+LOLIts Justin maybe they will if Impact stopped playing tanks (Ill leave now)
Tardis Backpack = Instant NRG fan, buying icon now
+AsgUnlimited The reason why he wears the bow-tie's is specifically of Dr.Who.
Nice story !
They said wall more times than Azir says Shurima though.
They always have to make me HUNGRY with those korean barbecues!!!
I dont always comment but when i do....
+Jonas Kirk I comment twice...
10:18 WTF KONKWON
+Dylan “Vannarian323” Elzey LMAO Moon's face
I like his dad! Props to him for giving support and taking an interest in the game, having your dad as your personal analyst must be cool :P.
SWEDEN OR NORWAY. Excuuuuse me. Denmark is a huuuge deal.. ah who am I kidding we're small :'(
***** ye :P goes for all three countries
+ScrattleGG what about skåne. were also an country by ourselves, but just because we are a part of "sweden" we're considered like that for the rest of the world. its really sad.
Sucks that stockholm won the war back in the days.

Wow, he looks exactly like his mom! omg
Great player, great personality, I love watching GBM play.
This was an incredibly heart-warming video. The father keeping up to date on LCS is adorable, mine just smacks me over the head for being a bronze scrublord.
i like him :D thats why i would like NRG to be a NA LCS top team... i just love to see players as cool as GBM succeed :)
ps: how do i grow my hair like that ? im chinese
I miss this series. It helped us viewers to get to know more about eastern players other than the team they’re signed to
This was by far the best Drive episode! Keep up the good work :D
6:14 Western Parents would be like:"wtf is a pro gamer?".
i love how his dad is just sitting there in the interview, all like, "my son plays video games for a living..."
The directing in these videos are always on point
GBM seems like such an awesome guy to hang around with
"I was... Amazing" - CloudTemplar
That Altec and GBM moment was awsome (during the fan meet)=]
OMG
his family is so lovable
specially his dad
it's so nice
"When you think you've won for sure, its the most dangerous moment"
NRG NRG NRG...best mid laner in NA LCS....GBM is a great person and I hope he remains with NRG eSports till he retires from pro gaming.
great story, very intertaining to watch! keep'em up! brazilian fan
really enjoyed this, learnt alot about GBM i didnt know :)
So Anivia, Yasuo, and Braum are all difficult champions for GBM to face.
+Rikor Volsati dont forget azir
+Rikor Volsati Jarvan and Trundle too.
Very true forgot about those other terrain generators.
+Rikor Volsati i like you
+Rikor Volsati Don't forget Trump.
That was SO GOOD
gbm looks exactly like his mom! no matter what happebs, gbm is one of the most loveable lol personalities. gbm fighting!
Kha'zix: Change is gooood
Lee (sin) Chang-Suk
Kha'zix: >:'(
Lee: |>)
now i respect him even more
I love these videos, really well made and interesting insight into the players.
he should buy a ladder
+iHalveien Savage Burn
Trump wall joke?
+FluffytheComedyKing yes thats it exactly! ''savage'' can only be used by idiots with that 5 years old picture and 30 years old ''like a boss''
+FluffytheComedyKing yeah hunders of thousands are watching twitch and only several thousands are spamming it with dumb repetative stuff, but here on youtube, you are the one and only with that stupid cover photo and comments
+FluffytheComedyKing "like a bos" haha, cant believe
Sorry Not Sorry
These Drive series videos are the best thing since the Kassadin nerfs.

HOLY GBM MOM ^_^
Gotta love this guy.
This was a good segment, Riot.
10:03 sneaky face fits accordingly to the subtitle.
a story about GBM's international tilt
As a Dane I'm salty over the Bjergsen comment!
Not really
+Nikolaj “Cohen” Jakobsen Who is Dane ?
+Kilian Fiedler its how danish people call themselves.
dont fall for da troll
;)
+Kilian Fiedler Dane is the english word for a danish person. Just like people from sweden are called Swedes.
+Kilian Fiedler Guy who is from Denmark?
His voice is so soothing ^.^
nice vid. we need more of this. ;)
Soft spot in my heart for GBM though. Good Drive segment !
best drive story so far
5:36 THERE IS A BABY DRIVING A CAR!
LolEsports: Making memes into metaphors.
new found respect for GBM
Honestly riot should make more of these, they are super interesting.
You saw the one about faker,bjerg,xpeke,uzi,and brtt,and sword art yet?
@7:30 lol 0-19 tsm
Hardcore triggered getting this in my TH-cam feed so many years later
i like this dude a lot.
a great player , my fav one alongside rush
AHHHHH HOW CAN YOU HATE THIS GUY!!!!!
seeing konkwon there makes me think of how funny it would be if ryan choi was on that team if he still played
Rito should make more of these
That's right kids, quit school and play video games.You heard it from rito first.
That feel when last game of diamond promos and mom comes and unplugs the cord. RIP ganked by mom
GBM and Bjergsen BFF meme initiated
the beginning is kdrama-worthy
Great Story for a good player .
btw whats the background music at 8:57 ?
"I Think he was an import from sweden or norway or something..." See people always forget Denmark. :,(
+PlopBlobBlopUnderWater We'll take over i.imgur.com/spJ0lss.jpg
+PlopBlobBlopUnderWater such a 1st world problem

So cute and what an amazing personality
I'm 100% confident that riot will do the same for an EULCS player 8^)
+prnfce Kappa
Thought he was talking about Trump at first
Take an inside look at what drives Lee Sin.
more of these vids pls
8:17 omg that backpack
Every time I flash into a wall I'll say that I'm trying to improve like GBM :D
That smug sneaky face at 10:02 though lmao
+ryan walter SneakyW
10:18 Somebody's getting touchy
I will sell my soul to whoever finds the song at the start. Legit.
his dad is so cool wtf
I really gotta admit, that going over the wall thing kept annoying me after some minutes. But the video and story itself seems kinda moving, I like it
이래서 샤이가 개빡쳐했구낰ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 조심하라는 콜까지 했는데 못넘었엌ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

처음에 갱맘 벽못넘어서 겜지고 4위해서 진짜 밉상이었는데.. 그래도 다 지나고 나니까 아무것도 아니고 외국가서 잘 풀리고 적응하는거 보니까 좋다
so thats what GBM stands for
Rip the old NRG roster.
GBM is world-class mid laner
hey riot, just some feeback here,
you should probably do a drive episode on hai, as he's been in it for 4 years AND he's done 3 roles in the past 3 years. that takes drive, just saying! :P
+Evan Jacobs Has one already been done for him?
+Andy Nguyen I don't think so
GBM FINALLY MADE IT OVER THE BORDER WALLS
But there is one wall he encountered but didn't overcome, The Baron Wall
I love these.
lmao the video fillter disappeared at 9:52
we need one about rf legendary
''Oh, isn't that good player Bjergsen there?'' i laughed so hard
His dad is so cool.....
There's food in every Riot Film.
i was literally rolling on the floor laughing when they explained that gbm actually stands for ganked by mom lol
5:40 that lag
GBM & Domingo same problem :^)
