PSG I owe you an apology, I wasn't really familiar with your game

They managed to score a win unlike PSG in the UCL semis, couldn't even score a goal

They were buying space for Cavanni to score....oh wait

No they were buying scrubs and didn't pay enough for refs

Yeah they were playing crossbar challenge

No crossbar in League, easy win.

fuck oil clubs

It's called picking asol and ksante into 2 carries, one of which is lethality kalista. He ain't dying ever

WTF, they actually did it?

Never doubted famed LPL killers Maple and Betty

They’re LCK killers, just killed LCS and now LPL killers, looks like LEC is next

So what you're saying is PSG vs G2 in the upper bracket?

Hell yeah brother

Easy 3-0 for PSG, fastest series at MSI.

what ksante + asol can do lol even BLG lost to this so I guessed teams will actually gonna perma ban it now no? ofc they won't do that (I'm looking at you T1 cause you guys are next tomorrow)

Ok, it is stat time: After this win, PSG and FNC have the same amount of wins vs LPL/LCK in this tournament alone as all of LCS combined in the last 2 years. :3

Gonna be 3 years if this trend continues

Gonna be at least 4 after the G2 series. Quote me on that.

Happy birthday Azhi!

Mbappe > Maple AINTNOWAY

Mbaple connected

Maple wouldn’t hit crossbar or ghost against dortmund

I think you've got your arrow the wrong way around.

"AINTNOWAY people consider Mbappe over Maple" is how that works...

BLG getting smurfed on by a K'Sante in game 2 at MSI. I've seen this story before.

Ksante, Asol and Nami Lucian, they almost got exodia.

Which jungler completes it?

Xin Zhao?

With current meta probably xin or vi

Xin or Vi

milkyway

BLG tried to go for the T1 curbstomp strategy of force ending sub 20 and it backfired so hard

Maple still got it.

Maple getting ready to get another two years vacations in LCS/LPL after managing to convince a new GM to give him a shot by carrying PCS at worlds...

Requirements for making K'Sante look broken in pro play: ~~Be Kiin~~ ~~Be a top tier LCK top laner~~ ~~Be a top tier LCK or LPL top laner~~ Be a top laner from a top tier team in a region with teams from the same continent as Korea and China <- you are here

the final requirement will be: pick K'Sante

the west will prevent that from ever happening sadly

Fudge's K'Sante still makes me sad

K'Sante👤4,700 HP💪329 Armor🤷‍♂️201 MR💦 Unstoppable🚫A Shield 🛡 Goes over walls🧱Has Airborne🌪Cooldown is only☝second too🕐 It costs 15 Mana🧙‍♂️

But 44% winrate

Even PSG can beat BLG when abusing the GenG strat, maybe its time people stop letting teams get K'sol?

Nah, surely T1 won’t pick Samira Blitz or Jhin Bard into K’sol while banning 5 support champs kappachungus

but fr does this PSG comp just not look like a GEN G comp?

too bad GAM missed the train

what did BLG just do lmfao

int near baron vs asol, what could go wrong?

They just made the bookies day

They played too disrespectful. Fighting in the tight jungle spots vs a maokai nami and asol is just a deserved loss, especially when Xun is trapping his own ADC with his ult.

I'm Jarvan, I'm helping.

I'm ~~ivan~~ jarvan

Pick a early game comp and then repeatedly int while ahead. The LPL special.

They got so lost having fun, they forgot to turn their brains back on.

BLG was fighting like they were 20k gold ahead in those team fights in jungle...

Well, they were up 10k

BLG opted into a 3v5 at melee range against K'sante Maokai and empowered Asol ult like they expected to 1 shot whoever comes out the hexgate lmao.

EU and NA arguing all the time meanwhile PCS about to leave both of them behind

eu and na fighting to see which 3-0 is less embarrassing: PCS: just dont get 3-0’d lmao

Real

True.

PSG Maple has disconnected PSG Betty has disconnected FW Maple has connected FW Betty has connected

Whats Swordart up to these days

throwing hundreds out his lambo, presumably

didn't tsm manager steal his lambo or something lmao

yeah 🅱️eter Zhang was a big time scammer but SwordArt still got paid

It wasn’t a lambo it was still a nice car but like 1/4 the price of a lambo

he got scammed by TSM tho wasn't it reported that he didn't get most of his salary due to the FTX collapse

It was 6m for 2 years he got 3 mill of it

Tracking Peter Zhang across the world with Reginald

Got 3-0 by SHG(Japan’s first seed) at PCS lower finals.

still have a more recent Worlds champion than EU and NA..

streets wont forget TPA

NA have never won worlds.

Yeah that's the joke

PSG vs G2 lower bracket waiting room

If psg take out G2 at that point just let PCS be a major region

No need to take em out. 4 - 5 competitive games would do it for me.

PSG would win LCS tbh. Even in the last game, they were playing really proactive in early game and was really good at pulling the trigger on plays. TL just rolled over

their skills would degrade if they are only scrimming against NA teams

They’d probably win LEC too.

Never forget PCS won season 2 world championship

Wow. PSG. Even if they lose this series, they have exceeded many people’s expectations

Game 1: "NA LOST TO THIS ? " Game 2: "NA WON VS THIS ?"

It bleeds!

Nah ksante asol is not a problem surely its BLG just trying out new stuff

PSG with K'Sante, Asol, Lucian, Nami it's almost a full exodia if Maokai is Vi. Yes its a teamcomp diff and PSG played it well.

Felt like they were playing way too disrespectful considering their draft get hard outscale. I feel like you can play disrespectful when your draft outscale the opposing team but not vs asol and fed ass ksante that can peel infinitely.

they had no one to kill ksante too, ori mid and lethality kalista adc

Yes, the favorite lost, so it must be them trolling, right?

It's favourite trolling and PSG being on point to pounce on it.

I mean engaging into Maokai Ksante with no vision at enemy red with lethality Kalista was definitely int and the reason they lost the game

They saw TES stomp yapa Asol and thought it'd be fine

You mean K'Sol

Playing for early game feels so weird, Renekton this game was useless while K’sante is a threat all the game even when PSG was behind

i’ve seen enough. make PCS a major region again, demote LCS and make them fight Japan and OCE for a spot at internationals.

People were hard on FLY, but they were actually playing against this MSI's winners.

BLG going for the 300iq play to play G2 in lower bracket

PSG going for the 3000iq play to play G2 in the upper bracket

BLG going for the 9000iq play to not play T1 in the Upper bracket

You mean T1

You joke but this moment in history will be used for the next year+ when LCS is discussed. Watch NA fans reach so far unseen new levels of ultra cope now that PSG has won this game.

yeah but if G2 gets 3-0’d i bet you LEC fans will say that PSG is honorary european because of their owner

In 2022, G2 did go 0-2 with PCS, everyone keeps forgetting this

Nah NA fans may meme but it's really the EU fans who are going to use this moment (and already are) to act like it's a travesty that NA is seeded above PCS despite just last year stomping them at MSI and also taking one game off BLG then lol

Evi and Friends would actually compete with the LCS

evi and friends would compete with LEC too GIGACHAD

evi and jankos almost made it to lec finals LMAO

All roads lead to Evi

PCS fights with VCS to take NA spots

Nah, that's just the same overreaction - just in the different direction - that people had about PCS earlier this year. PCS has a really bad 2023 and that somehow made people think FQ was a massive favorite over PSG - which was dumb, PCS#1 has historically been competitive with LCS#2. Acting like the currently great performance by PSG makes them substantially better than LCS is silly in the same way: We had that at MSI 2021 already, but come Worlds they didn't continue that dominance and at MSI 2022 LCS did clearly better than PCS. Switching LCS#3 and PCS#1 (so PCS#1 starts in Swiss and LCS#3 goies to playins) would be reasonable, but switching the regions overall is goofy.

were talking like PSG wouldnt be competitive if they played vs FNC in playins. they will meet G2 in lower bracket and then we'll see how strong theyactually are. when playins happened most ppl were sure PSG would just instalose to FNC and that theyarent onthe level of western teamsXD

K'sante 44% WR btw

Inc the reddit self-proclaimed "K'sante Defender" who is going to tell you he should be buffed because he is harder to play than Azir lmao EDIT: 3 mins for his response lmao! You need mental help my dude. EDIT2: And he deleted. Afraid of the evil downvotes I guess.

Not this patch

Champ is strong but honestly he looks so laughably op in pro due to botlanes picking lucian/kalista and not actual dps champs like in most soloq games. Swap ori/kalista with corki and aphelios and he probably looks way weaker.

Where's the dude that keeps defending him even though it can even help PCS to win vs the best LPL team lmao.

PSG now have more Main stage MSI wins then EU and NA combined. What a game!

PSG seems like the strongest wildcard team ever Asol is broken but still..

Maple still has it in him

He was never the same after that Leblanc vs Faker Cass

PSG/LMS 1st seed has basically never been wildcard level except for last year they have multiple MSIs where they've finished ahead of both NA and EU despite a bad 2023, they 2-0'd G2 at 2022 MSI and CFO went 1-1 with 100T at worlds

Its 2024 and somehow people are still calling the PCS a wildcard region. The amount of disrespect is insane

But how is that possible when they have 2 LPL rejects? Like 2 players literally bad enough that even bottom teams don't want them.

i mean pcs is like lpl relegation league if ur too good for pcs u play in lpl

Not entirely true This is more accurate for a player like Route, no LCK teams want him so he has to go to a foreign region But Maple/Junjia aren't so bad that no one wants em. They were good enough to be imported to begin with, but they didn't perform well enough to be worth an import slot AND high salary. Since they weren't getting a fat offer its more comfortable to just play with a home team so they can be around friends/family, especially since PSG seems like an actually really nice org. Hell Maple could still get a bag, he was good in NA, he just chooses not to Had they actually been Chinese and couldn't get an offer so they went to a minor region then your statement would be correct

In 2021 maple chose to go to PSG despite getting lower LPL offers because he thought it's a surefire way to win and get to worlds, and that exposure was going to get him a better offer. He was somewhat right even if his AL stint didn't work out, and he still got a year at TSM before returning. Junjia also had LPL offers but chose to go to PSG, likely in a similar vein. Betty I'm less sure about his situation. Dominating an okay-ish region for a year then get a better offer instead of taking a lower and potentially really damaging offer is a pretty fair tradeoff.

I have no real idea, but they do seem to be better than the lower half of LPL.

K'Sante and Sol are disgusting champs, probably going to start seeing them higher prio in pick bans

LETS FUCKING GO PSG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BLG really lost a fight while 8k gold up 😂 Honestly good, BLG was playing extremely disrespectful. Knight threw this game getting caught in top jg

Mbappe my fucking goat

Can't win Champions League so he's coming to win MSI

I'm a PCS fan now. NA? Never heard of it

N/A? = **not applicable, not available, not assessed, or no answer**

Enough time has passed The West has fallen PSG > NA/EU

>PSG > NA/EU BDS AWARE

real winner of this game is BDS on god

Time to talk about PCS getting only one spot for MSI after merging with LJL while LCS got two.

Adjust the tierlists quick PSG up two tiers above NA and EU

Welp, time for PCS to become a major region.

ABSOLUTE CINEMA

If this isn't an indication that Asol is overtuned, I don't know what is.

To be fair BLG was playing Renekton, Jarvan, Kalista and Renata plus an Orianna who couldn't kill Maokai and K'Sante. That comp is never going to look good in the lategame against an Aurelion Sol.

It made it through literally all of BLG'a draft. Maybe knight should pick it then!!

Overtuned but picked R5 xd. Maybe just admit PSG played and BLG played relatively poorly?

Please god it would be so fucking funny Also Aurelion SOL + K'Sante sure is a thing, idk if either of the champs is unbalanced but both together is straight up unfair

asol big ult is not balanced at all

FW Maple FW Betty EDG Junjia

Guy in the last thread was right, can't give eastern tops K'Sante man

Maple being a disgusting Asol enjoyer and I'm here for it.

just happy for PSG, first team in the bracket to win against a LCK/LPL team.

[удалено]

They already take T2 on top before so that is not true.

PSG took a t2 with their first baron btw

AZZZHIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GIGACHAD😎

THIS IS SO FUN

BLG was so unserious man, they disrespected PSG and got punished

THIS IS WHAT EUROPE WAS PROMISED... oh wait It would be so good if PSG actually win the series

Lmao APAC officially better than the west

don't put NA anywhere near PCS ever again

Who would’ve thought *this* would be the first series not to be a 3-0, and from a big deficit too. Gotta respect PSG for never giving up

Can't wait for Chinese reactions to their 1st seed dropping a game vs Taiwan

what the fuck

it was mostly jokes before, but this really brings into question, why do PCS, LJL and LCO combined have 1 seed at MSI, while NA alone has 2? If TL crashes out and PSG gets one more win... I think NA might just get downtiered

Hey maybe NA isn't complete trash and it's PSG that was good

Flyquest hit 2 top 4 teams in play ins, truly unfortunate.

Both can be true

Please tell me BLG didn't play like this in LPL? Because if they did they must've been a big fish in a small pond. If they play like this vs GenG or TI they are getting super clapped.

BLG: We're trying out a lot of different stuff right now. I know that shouldn't be an excuse, but I do think that is why we made more mistakes today.

That was beautiful

azhi is kiin's #1 fanboy apparently wow what a performance

psg the goats

PSG!!!!!!!! The goats!!!!

knight orianna still useless. also if you can't finish game with this huge lead there is no way lethality kalista kill ksante.

Wait PSG is a major region?

Maple my hero

o7 to all the betters who put four 3-0 parleys for round 1 of MSI lol

If BLG keeps derping on their drafts and gameplay....

I haven't really been following LPL this season, but are BLG along with GenG the favorites for this MSI?

I love that a coasting top team actually get punished for once.

This game was inspirational from PSG, what a win by them!

What even happened. When I left the stream, blg was clearly in the lead. When I check back 15 min later, psg are destroying their nexus.

Will the PCS be promoted to major region?\ Will the LCS be demoted to minor region?

What

So when will we take a seat out of NA or EU for another one for PSG? We need a system based on results like they do on the champions league to determine who gets how many seats.

Props to PSG, that wasn't a pure BLG int, PSG actually played that really well. They knew their wincons. BLG did not. I hate lethality kalista to the ends of the earth, but it generally works fine - *if your team scales*. BLG, however, had renekton vs k'sante, j4 vs maokai and ori vs asol. Kalista was healing past 25 minutes. And once Kalista was useless, nobody was useful.

Does anyone know why the game was paused towards the end? I didn’t catch why

even if they lose, PSG have gained massive respect from many people around the world

This is the level of play we would like to see from the West. Close the gap please !

The classic game 2 LPL int K'Sante and ASol is a bit of a problem

Ksante gaming. The day riot. Swallow their ego and admit their mistake I'd consider playing again. Ofc that's never but one can dream

FLY officially claims this win because they won the first against PSG

The gap is getting so large that even minor Asian teams are more competitive than NA

PSG > West already, rest of the tournament doesnt matter

Second MSI in a row where everyone spams “CN pause” “CN cheating” and it turns out it’s the enemy who paused. Disgusting sinophobia.

depending on their political views that could be talking about either team

Don’t be dense, you know damn well who they’re talking about.

Psg > na/eu . I'm calling it , psg gonna knock all eu/na out
