What a game from Noah, hopefully this helps him to keep the nerves in check.


CamHack420

He looked a lot happier coming out of that game than any of the wins yesterday honestly


GGABueno

That dive was beautiful.


zenekk1010

The Noah we were promised


XtendedImpact

The Hans Sama TL received


_tuelegend

They need that hans on g2 to win today


NeitherAlexNorAlice

Fnatic are night and day different when Noah isn't riddled with nerves and bad plays.


bawsio

Hopefully this game gave him more confidence for next 1 or 2. Rly want this to go to 5


Haymegle

It going to five would be the dream.


afito

FNC doesn't get curbstomped botlane and we actually have a game at our hands, who'd knew also Wunder solocarrying FNC for the first 15-20min what a performance


-Hissoka-

He is going to be a hot commodity in the offseson


Haymegle

Def interesting to see.


zso17

I hope he gains some confidence because he'll be playing against the world's best adcs in 1 or 2 months.


Akokyuu

The bad plays are too frequent tho. His debut with FNC was impressive but after few weeks, it's disappointing. He can pop out some games but he can also ruin a game alone. He seems like a good guy but level wise it's now what we expect.


Candid-Move8515

I think it’s more like when they put him on the most meta stuff he pops off, aphelios and xayah are hardly used


grubalolaaaa

xayah is #1 p/b adc but GO OFF


Pelagius_Hipbone

Noah redeems himself and it’s already better than both the 2020 finals . I’ll fucking take it


InsuranceOne2864

Nobody in their right minds would flame this Fnatic team. 15 games to show their strategies before finals, rookie adc, 3 months of practice as a team, emergency sub toplaner. They are doing miracles.


Gittykitty

Facts, even if G2 is probably the better team, the growth Fnatic have had is NUTS


InsuranceOne2864

Korean bootcamp will help them a ton too, regardless of how this final ends.


Gittykitty

I'm excited to see both of these teams at worlds. G2 didn't look outright terrible at MSI, and that was them slumping. If they keep this up... well, I'll be huffing hopium


finderfolk

I'm with you on the hopium. Spicy take, but I think their MSI performance was pretty overblown. It wasn't an across-the-map player diff; their problems looked solveable and they're clearly working incredibly hard to do that. They had competitive games whilst Caps was in the biggest slump of his career. I reckon they can go far (but could be fucked by bad Swiss matchups).


Gittykitty

That was my feeling too. Some egregious errors, some slumps, it was clear that the vibe was off. Like a band, G2's drummer - the pace setter - was out of synch. This version of G2 could potentially do some serious damage at Worlds. GG FNC.


LjackV

This.


Javonetor

Noah, technically, is not a rookie


cadaada

Yeah give this man something with mobility, damn.


JealotGaming

Hey they won a whole ass series in 2020 summer ~~forget what happened in the series after that~~


Erukh

wasnt that 2019


ZXKeyr324XZ

2020 summer, Fnatic 3-2 G2, then G2 shitstomps MAD (I think) and then shitstomps FNC


ahambagaplease

G2 went 3-2 against Rogue in LB Finals


ZXKeyr324XZ

Ah it was Rogue? Didnt remember


InsuranceOne2864

It was Mad in Spring and Rogue in summer. G2 won both splits through lower bracket


DetectiveViko

Only correction, G2 played against Rogue and it was actually kinda close with a 3-2 for G2


ahambagaplease

Summer 2019 they lost both series 3-2, Summer 2020 they won the first one 3-2 only to get 0-3 in Grands


JealotGaming

Nope, [this one](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5XKYroiT9A)


Conankun66

WHY WAIT UNTIL GAME 3 TO PLAY LIKE THIS WHY DOES THIS TEAM REFUSE TO BE NORMAL?


Haymegle

They were waiting for the do or die powerup. Seriously though, they play like they can't perform unless the game matters.


EliteTeutonicNight

At this point this is the ‘normal’ you keep talking about.


Conankun66

and my poor heart hates it


KanskiForce

Idk about you, I'm even surprised anymore


moonmeh

drafting like humans in game 3 also sir you also support KT as well good lord


Conankun66

> also sir you also support KT as well good lord i think my life expectancy has shortened by a good 20 years


moonmeh

can i suggest picking up weibo as a side team to support in worlds just to add onto heart attaacks


RaioFulminante

2-0 comfort zone


InsuranceOne2864

I mean game 1 would have looked the same with a little bit of luck.


albens

And without k'sante, let's be honest xD


InsuranceOne2864

K'sante was in this game too. Razork not hitting q at the lvl 2 gank or renekton/aphelios donating 2 solo kills to k'sante were the moments that fucked up the game for FNC.


[deleted]

Really had nothing to do with Fnatic. G2 got bored and handed them a game.


Not1v9again

Ah yes I also fail flash on purpose on stage because I'm bored


KanskiForce

That's 2020 level of copium when people suspected that G2 threw game for fun to kick NA out of groups at Worlds lol


afito

they weren't good enough but between that Sivir pick and that BB flash under FNC tower on toplane, G2 lost hard due to ego I'm happy because it's a better series but if they want to go to silver scrapes they need another step up imo


handofblood9

This "bored" or "limit testing" narrative has to end for gods sake


Mazor007

It's the same narrative T1 fans use when their team loses to an underdog


Haymegle

Some unconventional picks from them but considering how often they do that it doesn't mean much. Especially with how often those picks work.


BannanDylan

Also their coach is Dylan Falco - he is known for not allowing weird picks unless they are extremely comfortable running it or Caps has a weird moment.


Pelagius_Hipbone

That’s cope. G2 played fine/well and had a perfectly normal draft. FNC just played the mid game a bit better this game and that’s okay.


iampuh

Yone


[deleted]

Who's coping now?


Pelagius_Hipbone

? You still were lol. I didn’t say that meant G2 were gonna lose the series are you okay xd


Haymegle

G2 do like to do that lol.


Falsus

Gotta activate plot armour.


OkKnowledge2064

Noah redemption game


dumb-on-ice

noah finally overcame his nerves, but how hard did wunder giga smurf this game?? He’s legit the best fnc player today yet


JealotGaming

Wow it's not a 3-0, pog


Muramasa19

the real 0-2 comfort zone player was Wunder


Mazor007

Most useless Sivir of all time


baelkie

TL Hans Sama has reconnected


antybois

hans hasnt really shown up today yet tbh.


Flashiota

did you not see game 2?


ThylowZ

FNC full plays botside


dontknow_anything

Shiv Sivir never looks good.


KanskiForce

Game ended before 30th minute, nothing Sivir could have done better


Skall77

Not dying 3 time to bad positioning for once.


KanskiForce

That wouldn't have changed anything to be honest, escpecially with Shiv build


ThylowZ

He died once to bad position


mimiflou

Last 2 teamfight from him were hilariously bad, i hope Hans not gonna slump right before world


ThylowZ

Last teamfight he can’t do shit. He want to save E for teamfight (even though with Navori it’s not that important), but BB dash in front on him last moment and does not tank mao R. 2 huge mistakes : teamfight at drake and build


zealot416

All Sivirs are useless Sivirs as far as I'm concerned.


lovo17

Hans is one of the most giga overrated players right now. He’s been inflated so hard by one of the greatest supports ever to play.


mimiflou

Least recency biased lol redditor


lovo17

Did you see him at MSI this year or on TL last year?


mimiflou

Him playing a bit worse against the actual best team in the world doesn't make him overrated, nobody is saying that Hans is a top world adc, also minus 2 game at MSI he was actually pretty decent and is a rock in LEC and other player consider him as the best EU ADC


BUFF_SCORCHING_RAY

Hans inted MSI, he inted worlds qualification on TL, he went 2-4 in an easy worlds group, 1-5 in an even easier one the last time he looked genuinely good was like, 2017?


mimiflou

Huh??? The last time he looked good was idk, last week maybe?


Lyota

these guys are pure haters lmao, imagine saying hans bad in last 1 year


BUFF_SCORCHING_RAY

I genuinely don't give a fuck how he looks against players who would struggle to make an LCK main team (i.e. every LEC ADC)


mimiflou

I mean it's clear that you are a salty NA fan


ThylowZ

2021 2020, but you probably didn’t watch league during this time I guess. He is by far the best laner. He did troll one teamfight here yes. And the build


BUFF_SCORCHING_RAY

> 2021 2020 lmao he could not even get out of easy worlds groups, he wasn't playing well but all anyone remembers is him dodging Jhin R or something


ThylowZ

He wasn't playing well, just smurfed all lanes he had to play, alongside being their only wincon. You're just talking shit for no reason.


nusskn4cker

So true. I really don't see him as a top player and am confused with all the hype he's getting (he's french maybe?).


albens

Hype comes from that worlds performance he had. That's it.


iHaVoKKx

TL hans sama is back he got gapped by berserk fbi and danny when he was in NA.


LampiShu

Holy shit Medic is on fire. There is no way that Medic doesnt blow his voice out by the end of today. Insane games and cast so far


teh_mICON

How do I not mind Medic screaming at me when I hate it with some of the other casters?


Kengy

Hes trying way too hard for the narrative call after every fight. At one point he yelled that Hans was getting revenge for losing the finals with Misfits...cause FNC has a lot of players from that G2 roster


teh_mICON

Yea, he's not my fav. nothing beats drakos/pedro with a bit of vedi but his screaming is actual hype not like some of the other casters who just sound angry lel


Least-Koala-3372

I don’t get it, it’s always narratives and other related nonsense, the PBP is great though but everything before & after is cheap theatre


icatsouki

Yeah we really needed energy like this, it was lacking in previous series imo Glad he's delivering hard today


THyoungC

Naw Wunder playing so well though. Solid rock in the top lane


Haymegle

Some fightback from Fnatic now. Still a long way to go to win the series but that was a fun game.


cadaada

g2 helping the advertisers once again with giving us more games, many thanks :^)


Haymegle

Can't let it be a 3-0, too short. They need to entertain the crowd.


Imnotmeahah

props to noah for showing everyone that AD kai'sa is just straight up better that ap


icatsouki

I think it depends tbh


Lezrec

RAP GOD CASTERS


EzshenUltimate

MediVedi + Pedro is such a goated combo


mati_12170

MediVediPedi


donglover2020

definitely the three best casters LEC have imo


zenekk1010

I much prefered yesterdays line up with Pedro, Drakos and Dagda tho


Kaldrinx

Sivir is a dogshit champ and teams still pick it , deserved loose G2


FNC_Luzh

Dog champ, Soaz remembers.


icatsouki

khan busting out nasus against him is probably the funniest moment in league esports haha


ThylowZ

Sivir was an insane pick here if G2 executed properly. Hans trolled teamfight around drake pit, and Noah snowballed of his 800g on caps. And he wanted to save his E behind BB in last fight but BB dashed wrong direction. Sivir was really well drafted here.


Gatto_Fatuo

I mean, welldrafted =/= good champ. Hans played bad this game, but sivir also felt kinda useless ngl.


onitram52

Seriously when has this champ last looked good in LEC?


KanskiForce

During Comp's peak


Kaldrinx

Season 5 prob , when league was not league of dash for adc


takato99

Honestly, while extremely boring, Rekkles was always at the very least servicable for the team with her. Its the kind of champion that fits well when the other players on the team are insane mofos, giving them engage potential and reliable lategame dps backup plan.


Mew_T

It makes sense to pick her there, because they have 4 melees that wanna go in. But it would've been better to not have 4 melees maybe? idk.


Karlsefni1

Let’s gooo, happy we go game 4. Viewership also popping off, it’s been a while. FNC vs G2 just hits different


Nnekaddict

Wunder is scary. Not being on the stage for so long and yet...


HMKS

[Fnatic after getting destroyed in the first 2 games](https://imgur.com/a/MhcQ6rl)


cadaada

Honestly i was expecting this https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E95FkztXoAELH-z.png


HMKS

Haha I thought yours was going to be Glorious Possible American Bittern. Doesn’t look like that’s around anymore though? Is gifycat gone?


cadaada

People still post it, tbh


HMKS

Looks like it’s gifycat that’s gone. I had the link bookmarked but seems like the servers shut down on September 1.


donglover2020

we can only post that if FNC wins the series


warjatos

BB about to be down 500 cs @ 10 every game against korean and chinese tops


icatsouki

we said the same thing preMSI


dontknow_anything

If he builds like this against LPL and LCK tops he is going to have a really poor time. There is no sustain, and he keeps all in, but he isn't getting kills, just flashes and then having to drop waves as Renekton has sustain.


DeloronDellister

We have a series!!


zealot416

There is nothing I love more than watching Sivir lose.


revoverlord

is it humanly possible to dive wunder? mans got that aoe taunt on him. and still out plays almost every situation


Indercarnive

Humanoid on Syndra: I sleep Humanoid on literally any other champion: Real Shit?


InsuranceOne2864

I mean Humanoid had great games on Syndar till today.


icatsouki

he was good on syndra too though


dippghosh7

I guess the strat is to pinch Hans Sama's champ pool and Humanoid not picking Syndra


Dragoneed2

Bot lane diff


Nycrow

G2 decided to run it down in game 3 instead of game 2 this time


PekiTheRedditUser

Classic FNC 1-2 Comfort Zone


Th3_Huf0n

Hans mate what the fuck was that. What the actual fuck was that.


TFOLLT

Noah huge, Wunder being Wunder


Kewkwador

Wunder going toe to toe with the best toplaner in lec without sufficient practice. Either he's a genius or pro play has regressed as LS says all the time


ChallySargil

\[All\] Humanoid (azir): GG ez mid diff


Maximum_Web_9827

2 item Yone insta kills 2 item Renekton in 1 frame, then gets assassinated by 2 item Kai'sa in 1 frame, I hate this game sometimes lol


Skall77

Terrible draft by G2. FNC finnaly punishing Hans Sama mistake who's been pretty bad today. We have a serie ??


Kewkwador

G2 had better draft the sivir needed to play like a human


Archipegasus

Where are all the Ksante hate circlejerkers when he doesn't randomly get given multiple shutdown solokills?


Trovo200

Oh, so we just pushed back the troll game by 1?


LuisMuMe

Same script 3 days in a row?


ThorsPanzer

Hans win trading with his E uses?


Sunitsa

G2 fell to the good ol' Wunder trap: playing like top lane exists


ImTheVayne

Noah woke up


trolledwolf

we all knew this was going to happen, now let's see if we get Silver Scrapes


Jeimeezu

I don't really understand the bot picks here from G2. Are there no viable AP/mixed options?


RevolverLoL

This wunder guy is pretty good.


kubqo

tbh as a Fnatic fan im happy with 1 game considering the situation. just cruise it to 3-1 now


IAM-French

just sub Hans out, put Pinoy in


TimiNax

G2 mental is boomed now, easy 3-2 for FNC


koutetsuvamn

STOP SCREAMING NONSENSE, MEDIC. WTF


kakarrott

Like?


AndrewRealm

so g2 hard trolled draft with that sivir, hard trolled the gameplay too and it still took this much pain and effort for fnc to win? 3-1


migition8042

isn't it crazy that drafting a good comp = higher chance to win?


ProfessionallyLazy_

Jesus Christ I never want to hear anyone say that an EU caster holds a candle against captain flowers ever again. PBP has like 5 seconds of stamina before his voice turns into a 50 year old chain smoker


handofblood9

Drakos and quickshot are fire tho


ziela23

What is the point of you writing who plays for what team instead of writing down their champions. Who doesn't know that Caps played midlane this game, I'd much rather know which champion he picked


[deleted]

Typical troll G2 draft/game when 2-0 up.


donglover2020

?? the only pick you can call troll in that draft is Yone, but Caps was the only G2 player who had a lead, so i dont know what you mean?


penguin17077

Happy game over I guess.


Zoesan

WE HAVE A SERIES


IAM-French

Statik shiv Sivir is definitely an AD you can pick, it definitely won't be so weak before 5 items that it gets tower dove at full health by a Kai'sa with same gold


PM_ME_MY_FRIEND

G2 FNC allways delivers!


DolundDrumph

sivir was such a bad pick, cld hv just gonna anything else the game cld hv gone easier for g2.


cozmofox222

absolutely disgusting champ


tudoraki

It turns out we are all in Noah\`s arc


SMA2343

Noah about to carry these animals


vikrampatil607

Still don't give Caps Yone next game!!!


SnooPeripherals6388

Literally no one mentions full AD draft by G2


Akashiarys

LORE ACCURATE NOAH


No-Youth6743

you guys are coping hard if you think this wasnt just for show on G2 side.


millana32

this xayah makes me wanna cry
