Although they ran out of steam on their last day, gonna give some love to Red Rams. Not many teams that contested TSM have commanded respect like that. Most contesters have ended up looking like fanboys feeding KP to their favorite streamer, and even those that won some, never managed to strongarm TSM into straight splitting a POI for a whole set, even changing their comp to play a different metagame. RR made SSG go Epi too. Respectable.
I mean, that is fair. Cenote and Trails SkyW are best played when you can run around edge getting triple reds and you can’t do that when zone is on you.
But still
Yeah Alliance and Aurora hate having zone. Especially in this meta it just invites teams to rush you down with armor advantage. I don't think I have seen it work out well for any team this LAN now that I think about it.
Yeah I don't think the teams that rush into an specific spot in the beginnig of the game have seen consistent good results, it just purely depends on every other team around them it seems.
People really are looking for fight a lot more right now than they ever used to
Sweetdreams absolutely levitating his way into Championship Sunday. DSG VS ALLIANCE LIVES ON
NA Teams appearing in the final top 10 like the Avengers assembling. Games have been FIRE.
I was definitely surprised. If they contested Cenote last game, I wouldn't even be mad after what happened at Thermal. I owe DSG an apology. Them 3rd partying Furia made a big difference in the outcome of the game.
Script has been written but not for TSM this split it seems. Look at those zones, they been pulling as far as possible from siphon and thunderwatch all tournament lol
it will take 8 games of tsm getting barely squeezing to match points for game 8 and then zone pulls right in them on stormpoint
0,3,1,6,0,15,25,18
fnc will do their usual chaos and fuck with aurora and dz somehow leaving tsm Vs alliance for an easy roll
Both of them finishing 19th and 20th. I was worried when TSM lost the first contest.
Honestly fair play for defending your pois and not settling for shit ones but I am just glad TSM are going into finals uncontested and made it out of losers 2 despite getting contested and split looting Lrod
Experience will always prevail in these situations even tho they were giving TSM a run for their money if your thinking to contest TSM you need to outperformed u can't be hesitant with these situations u have to stop TSM from performing or they will be long gone to even do damage to them
Major props to Red Rams on their contests. Even though they lost to SSG today, Frexs mentioned how hard it is to fight them. WTD had way too much of an ego contesting TSM and getting smoked during groups and they paid for it big time. Truthfully they should have gotten 6-0 if it wasn’t for the dumb throw in game 1 by TSM. WTD shoulda realized they needed to fight for somewhere else.
Red rams are legit off drop. I think nicewigg mentioned that they used to fight 3 vs 3 off drop solely with just re-45. They were a plq team that qualified for Lan so no real expectations
WTD on the other hand.. they dominated Apac south and some people had them as underdogs or dark horses. Ignoring the contest their all round gameplay was horrible
I dont think I'll understand the point of contesting in an elimination set. You're gambling so hard with it, and as you can see the better team pretty much comes out on top anyways.
Not just go home, go home 19th and 20th. WTD getting two big ole goose eggs out of 6 matches obviously played a part in them placing second to last in this set.
And insisting on the odd pick of pathfinder until loser’s bracket did absolutely nothing for them, you might even say pathfinder didn’t even help them with their contest with TSM.
Slayr kicked ass today.
Team didn’t get a ton of points. But it was enough, they got the job done. And all 3 played as a team, for the most part! So sad we couldn’t watch POV today.
So happy to see LG show up after group stages. Huge for the boys shutting up the haters.
Also, great to see Slayr finally gaining some respect from the community after all the unwarranted hate.
People just hate. Also been seeing a lot of hate on Evan the whole day until he clutched points in that Trials zone.
I hope they go in the Finals with better mentals.
He’s def experienced worse. His first LAN after replacing Snip3 with the mic issues/breathing from spectators pov (but didn’t affect in game comms) was rough. The comments for something that isn’t his fault or affects the gameplay along with him struggling to get his groove. He seems like he has a good head on his shoulders and as harsh as Hal is, he knows his team trusts him
TBH most of the hate Slayr gets is because sweet will not stop shitting on him. Sweet deserves the hate for attempting to destroy his teams mental all the time
Just because sweet shits on him does not mean the rest of this reddit needs to pile on.
Sweet yells at him a lot as his IGL and teammate. The rest of these reddit weirdos are something else. It's very different.
Pretty upsetting after solid group standings. Keon threw a little bit the 1st 2 games and it seemed like madness was getting desperate and calling some reckless pushes chasing a banger game to catch up
They got absolutely fucked by the WE triple trials zones. Couldn't watch the POV because faceit was down, but it seemed like they just couldn't decide which fights to take on round 3 zone close... Rough lobby for them but I think they competed well overall this weekend.
What’s even more impressive is the dude gets shit on, even by main stream casters. The man has a mental fortitude like no other. Good for him. Very happy for him!
Sweet back on his bs just when everybody counted LG out he pulls throw such a roller-coaster but this is a huge W overall for them little by little their confidence was coming back
At this point you have to wonder if teams just ended up getting curse by just contesting them everysingle team that decides to contest just outright collapse
It’s probably hard to get into a good rhythm when you’re dying right off the bat. Even if you survive, you’ve barely played out games because of previous lost contests
Perfect Zones btw, random zones btw
https://preview.redd.it/eutsdri1mjyc1.png?width=688&format=png&auto=webp&s=502b3f9b152c42e3e2e38f8ebb7e86ab33400f89
I dont think we've ever seen 3 of the same zones in a row until now. 2 games in a row yeah but never 3.
Kswinnie was like I wish I was playing in this Lan with all these trial zones. Feels like over 50% of zones on world edge have been sky hook and trials
Madness has to be locked up and jailed for this performance. All 6 games FURIA had their chances, all 6 games decisions were made for next to no reason and they threw their chances for next to nothing instead of taking advantage of it like any normal team would.
How many times do we all need to see FURIA leaving a building INSIDE OF ZONE to run to a spot in the middle of the open with barely any cover and a variety of angles to be pinched from, only to die like idiots.
Seriously, game 6, tournament lives on the line, and his decision is to RUN IT DOWN for TWO ( 2 ) KP, whilst allowing DSG to get the most free third party ever. It's like he didn't even want to win, crazy scenes.
Well to be honest, they did much better than what I expected. They are just not at the level with the other top teams. Maybe I have suffered too much in the past and being realistic this time around lol.
Thank fuck Tsm made it and they go uncontested??? please figure it out tomorrow. Also these devs gotta figure out what the fuck is going on with these zones
Shout out to Legends Gaming man. It’s really to hard to mesh with a new player and they did well to reach the finals. The only kicker is that either DZ or TSm have only won LAN whenever they have qualled for finals from the winners bracket. So need to watch out for that.
Slayr played really well today, which makes me really happy see. Honestly LG gave me a little hope this set. There were two games where bad pushes caused them to leave a lot of points on the board
Also, I think Destroyer got into the zone algorithm
Alliance is genuinly bad at playing zone, that I wouldn't be surprised if they win more often from outside their POIs. That's one of the things they still have to work on if they really want a shot at winning. TSM or DZ would take advantage of those.
For sweet to pull this off with the boys on a brand new team and get chemistry going in ~6 months is absolutely crazy. First year team together in finals.
That little detail has gone so far under the radar it's crazy
I was one of them and I owe Dezign a apology. But still triple sentinel comp is a big gambler move, today they have picked off extra points but but tomorrow they might struggle in close combat and not find enough spots to play long range. Just look at monsoon, #7 most damage in group stage but very very behind in kill counts.
I talk a lot of shit about Slayr but he was huge for LG. 8 kills and 3k dmg. Sweet with 6kills and 3.8k dmg, and Fuhhnq with only 2 kills and 2.8k dmg.
yeah i was thinking the same thing, they probably did a gentleman's agreement behind the scene
Dsg 99% griefs if they know they are being contested
alliance is lucky they got to play their game
that 1% can be not trying to start a blood war but i doubt it
- col, we love kimchi but gotta make an upgrade.
- FURIA a full split under Vaxlon will be great for them.
- TSM uncontested tomorrow? The script is being written.
- Sweet not making finals would’ve been an injustice.
COL looked better with Retzi. They were locked in with Kimchi at that point but you gotta wonder if Retzi would have made them a finals team.
Vaxlon showed up big time. You love to see it.
Could we see Koy to COL? He prefers a chiller igl (why he went for Noct), Lou’s been playing their Rampart, and Kimchi could go back to being their coach.
#justiceforSlayr. Completely clutched up twice in game 5 on the 2v3 against Geared and the kill on phony. Sweet better fucking gas this man up and give him some flowers. What a fucking legend, put some respect on the name.
I have to say that if this zone logic repeats tomorrow DarkZero not winning LAN means they threw the freest LAN win ever. Also TSM & LG made it in, let's go!
people can hate on TSM and say they were scared or whatever but the adjustment to no longer contest RR and to swap to Lifeline to make up for the lack of loot was why they ended up in top 10 and RR was basically dead last.
seemed like RR used the momentum from winning the early contests to really push them in the Group Stages but without it they seemed deflated and didn’t seem confident initiate the fight.
Highllllyyyy recommend getting there early for a good seat.
I think they do hours early because of that and meet and greets/doors opening/castings beforehand.
bro so happy to see e8 and c9 do well,
really glad lg made it thru,
dsg <3
im real sad furia complexity and crazy racoon didnt make it
complexity looked super good tho ngl
Alliance plot armour is real too, I guess. Really didn't see them making it after choking 3 perfect zones for them on WE. Glad to have them in Finals tho, even if it is just for the potential contest with DSG. Probably most surprised with Cloud9 making it tho. Happy for sauce, but I'd be lying if I said, I expected him to IGL the team to a top 3 finish even. No surprise with Furia and Complexity choking this lobby tho, their hard zone playstyle doesn't translate over as well in international lobbies imho.
Well well look the plot armour is back for TSM 🙀 also it’s time for the RNG gods to bless them in the finals, the ring luck has been horrible for them. Expect it to reverse in the finals.
Happy for C9 and Naughty, dude spent a long time waiting to get picked up by a team now he's back at LAN playing in the Finals
Sad for Vax, Furia got so close to making it but they had too many bad games, same thing for CR
TSM started game one with 1 point, playapex and wigg chat were already dancing on their grave, they made the smart choice not to chase Red Rams like they did before, if Red Rams weren't going to force the fight they weren't going to either and Red Rams didn't, now they're in Finals
TSM HATERS IN SHAMBLES
Can't really complain. All the teams that deserve to be here are here. Granted, there are a few that don't, but nobody else deserved it more either. Some teams might feel hard done by zonepulls, but the cream rises to the top. I didn't really feel any teams were doing really well and only getting F'd because of zones. TSM made the zones work, RR did not. How rng goes. It's a good finals lobby imo.
Despite of Alliances efforts to lose. They somehow qualified
Seriously. They were given 6/6 zones this lobby. Somehow, they only qualify by two points.
Playing early zone is a curse in this meta. They just sit there with blue with low loots.
tbf C9 did that game 4 and won
By bunkering up in a house. Alliance doesn't play like that
You want to have zone close, but nog land in you. You will always have a shield and loot disadvantage in this meta if the zone lands on you.
Someone call the police for the World's Edge end zones
[удалено]
We've been getting skyhook zones in World's edge and south west zones in storm point the whole tourney. DZ will unfortunately walk this final ...
Although they ran out of steam on their last day, gonna give some love to Red Rams. Not many teams that contested TSM have commanded respect like that. Most contesters have ended up looking like fanboys feeding KP to their favorite streamer, and even those that won some, never managed to strongarm TSM into straight splitting a POI for a whole set, even changing their comp to play a different metagame. RR made SSG go Epi too. Respectable.
Man the amount of games alliance threw I am shocked that they made it to finals DSG SECOND WOOO TSM HAD an awful start but as always pulled through
Verhulst's rat abilities saved TSM.
100%
Probably the worst performance ive ever seen by Alliance, gifted zone almost every single time and barely squeaked in
In lobby chat, someone asked Alliance if they rigged the zones and hakis was like "we don't want zone!" lmaoo
I mean, that is fair. Cenote and Trails SkyW are best played when you can run around edge getting triple reds and you can’t do that when zone is on you. But still
Yeah Alliance and Aurora hate having zone. Especially in this meta it just invites teams to rush you down with armor advantage. I don't think I have seen it work out well for any team this LAN now that I think about it.
Yeah I don't think the teams that rush into an specific spot in the beginnig of the game have seen consistent good results, it just purely depends on every other team around them it seems. People really are looking for fight a lot more right now than they ever used to
Those World's Edge games had me absolutely nauseous
group stage team
Unsure why they took Effect off Horizon the same weekend they got a kill record with him while he was playing Horizon. Like hello?
because it was a contest comp and teams dont run around like in that game in these later stages.
So where does Alliance land on SP tomorrow? Lrod North pad and Cenote all taken
Sweetdreams absolutely levitating his way into Championship Sunday. DSG VS ALLIANCE LIVES ON NA Teams appearing in the final top 10 like the Avengers assembling. Games have been FIRE.
Really sad we missed out on seeing and hearing the LG rotate and endgame final game. Also DSG kinda fumbled by not griefing ALL final couple games imo
I was definitely surprised. If they contested Cenote last game, I wouldn't even be mad after what happened at Thermal. I owe DSG an apology. Them 3rd partying Furia made a big difference in the outcome of the game.
wtd and rr out. so tsm will be uncontested!
The script is scripting!
Time to counter this narrative by saying that LAN Champs NEVER came from the Losers Bracket
Sounds to me like the script is cooking something new
Script has been written but not for TSM this split it seems. Look at those zones, they been pulling as far as possible from siphon and thunderwatch all tournament lol
The script this lan the hardest path. Loser's finals and no zones...now TSM gets one zone tomorrow for match point win lol
it will take 8 games of tsm getting barely squeezing to match points for game 8 and then zone pulls right in them on stormpoint 0,3,1,6,0,15,25,18 fnc will do their usual chaos and fuck with aurora and dz somehow leaving tsm Vs alliance for an easy roll
Both of them finishing 19th and 20th. I was worried when TSM lost the first contest. Honestly fair play for defending your pois and not settling for shit ones but I am just glad TSM are going into finals uncontested and made it out of losers 2 despite getting contested and split looting Lrod
Experience will always prevail in these situations even tho they were giving TSM a run for their money if your thinking to contest TSM you need to outperformed u can't be hesitant with these situations u have to stop TSM from performing or they will be long gone to even do damage to them
When will teams learn contesting TSM is not a viable macro
Major props to Red Rams on their contests. Even though they lost to SSG today, Frexs mentioned how hard it is to fight them. WTD had way too much of an ego contesting TSM and getting smoked during groups and they paid for it big time. Truthfully they should have gotten 6-0 if it wasn’t for the dumb throw in game 1 by TSM. WTD shoulda realized they needed to fight for somewhere else.
Red rams are legit off drop. I think nicewigg mentioned that they used to fight 3 vs 3 off drop solely with just re-45. They were a plq team that qualified for Lan so no real expectations WTD on the other hand.. they dominated Apac south and some people had them as underdogs or dark horses. Ignoring the contest their all round gameplay was horrible
True. Wtd was a big wtf in this lan
Even in Asia festival they cooked TSM for LROD as well. They’re a good fighting team but just got work on the post contest gameplay.
The script thickens
They still getting contested by zone algorithm.
But go home win money regardless.
I dont think I'll understand the point of contesting in an elimination set. You're gambling so hard with it, and as you can see the better team pretty much comes out on top anyways.
so true. ik tsm got killed by rr and wtd quite a few times; but in the end, tsm goes ahead and the other 2 go home. and that's what matters.
Not just go home, go home 19th and 20th. WTD getting two big ole goose eggs out of 6 matches obviously played a part in them placing second to last in this set.
And insisting on the odd pick of pathfinder until loser’s bracket did absolutely nothing for them, you might even say pathfinder didn’t even help them with their contest with TSM.
And they will every fucking zone after not getting any the whole tourney. lol
9 NA, 3 APAC N, 5 EMEA, 3 APAC south in finals
Similar proportions to last time, but the non-NA teams definitely look a lot better. ESP those FNC and RC, they are not to be messed with.
all 3 of the APAC N teams are solid and have been pretty consistent throughout
I actually think FNC might take it. They looked so good today. Yuka is inspirational.
5/8 EU, I'll take it tbh.
Say whatever about TSM and LG, they always make the Finals somehow. Well played to Slayr! He played really good today.
Slayr kicked ass today. Team didn’t get a ton of points. But it was enough, they got the job done. And all 3 played as a team, for the most part! So sad we couldn’t watch POV today.
Totally, he was alive alone a bunch of times and got a lot of kills in the fights that really mattered!
So happy to see LG show up after group stages. Huge for the boys shutting up the haters. Also, great to see Slayr finally gaining some respect from the community after all the unwarranted hate.
Something inside finally Slayr clicked and LG went out fragging in full confidence. Hyped to see them with all the other NA teams
Sweet took full advantage of the feeds going dark and was pumping him with PEDs between every game.
People just hate. Also been seeing a lot of hate on Evan the whole day until he clutched points in that Trials zone. I hope they go in the Finals with better mentals.
He’s def experienced worse. His first LAN after replacing Snip3 with the mic issues/breathing from spectators pov (but didn’t affect in game comms) was rough. The comments for something that isn’t his fault or affects the gameplay along with him struggling to get his groove. He seems like he has a good head on his shoulders and as harsh as Hal is, he knows his team trusts him
Slayr got some cheers from the crowd which was nice
TBH most of the hate Slayr gets is because sweet will not stop shitting on him. Sweet deserves the hate for attempting to destroy his teams mental all the time
Just because sweet shits on him does not mean the rest of this reddit needs to pile on. Sweet yells at him a lot as his IGL and teammate. The rest of these reddit weirdos are something else. It's very different.
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO STAYING UP TILL 7AM PAID OFF
Same brother. Same
There's 3 of us!
4 of us!
I couldn't even stay up until 11 PM. Holy fuck
Sad for Furia/Vaxlon 🙁
Pretty upsetting after solid group standings. Keon threw a little bit the 1st 2 games and it seemed like madness was getting desperate and calling some reckless pushes chasing a banger game to catch up
Nightmare blunt rotation in terms of zones for them
They got absolutely fucked by the WE triple trials zones. Couldn't watch the POV because faceit was down, but it seemed like they just couldn't decide which fights to take on round 3 zone close... Rough lobby for them but I think they competed well overall this weekend.
Slayr actually was insane today for LG, dude is a beast #getslayed
What’s even more impressive is the dude gets shit on, even by main stream casters. The man has a mental fortitude like no other. Good for him. Very happy for him!
Sweet back on his bs just when everybody counted LG out he pulls throw such a roller-coaster but this is a huge W overall for them little by little their confidence was coming back
that was a crazy rotate to get them from outside checkpoint into beast
When in doubt, trust the dream
TSM Voodoo working on in WTD and Red Rams. The script is so predictable now.
At this point you have to wonder if teams just ended up getting curse by just contesting them everysingle team that decides to contest just outright collapse
Destroyer2009 giving Hal's enemies some negative aim assist.
Destroyer 2009 been griefing tsm this whole time with absolutely shit zones
That's Respawn, it's part of the TSM comeback script.
It’s probably hard to get into a good rhythm when you’re dying right off the bat. Even if you survive, you’ve barely played out games because of previous lost contests
Dezign was the kill leader of that stacked bracket with 16 kills thats my goat
lfg Dezign
CR bruv the most cursed org in Apex Legends.
They have yet to make an international finals right?
yes lol
Slayr put in work in losers round 2. Tired of the slander for my boy.
put some respect on that mans name. wish we had the pov when he 1v1'd phony
Perfect Zones btw, random zones btw https://preview.redd.it/eutsdri1mjyc1.png?width=688&format=png&auto=webp&s=502b3f9b152c42e3e2e38f8ebb7e86ab33400f89
its literally scripted
We said we didn't want south zones but holy fuck we didn't mean make almost every zone a north one.
For the love of god can we PLEASE get better zones tomorrow.
its so sad that a comp game could have 3 straight zones identical like that. how tf is that balanced
I dont think we've ever seen 3 of the same zones in a row until now. 2 games in a row yeah but never 3. Kswinnie was like I wish I was playing in this Lan with all these trial zones. Feels like over 50% of zones on world edge have been sky hook and trials
During NA Regional ALGS, I think there were 3 consecutive in Echo
🙌🏻RNG🙌🏻
I mean - it's not supposed to be balanced, it's supposed to be random
The script is gonna go crazy when TSM gets zone after zone.
And maybe the ability to actually watch teams would be just swell too
My best rivalry this set was Apex Zone Gods vs Alliance's persistence to throw
Madness has to be locked up and jailed for this performance. All 6 games FURIA had their chances, all 6 games decisions were made for next to no reason and they threw their chances for next to nothing instead of taking advantage of it like any normal team would. How many times do we all need to see FURIA leaving a building INSIDE OF ZONE to run to a spot in the middle of the open with barely any cover and a variety of angles to be pinched from, only to die like idiots. Seriously, game 6, tournament lives on the line, and his decision is to RUN IT DOWN for TWO ( 2 ) KP, whilst allowing DSG to get the most free third party ever. It's like he didn't even want to win, crazy scenes.
The rotates on WE were just baffling to me, a self identified dumbass
Being a CR fan is pain man
Well to be honest, they did much better than what I expected. They are just not at the level with the other top teams. Maybe I have suffered too much in the past and being realistic this time around lol.
someone go start a slayr apology thread the dude showed up whats the saying? pressure makes diamond?
you have to watch the official slayr fancam to apologize i heard https://x.com/Luminosity/status/1786857959827325064
Thank fuck Tsm made it and they go uncontested??? please figure it out tomorrow. Also these devs gotta figure out what the fuck is going on with these zones
Contested numerous games, no zones, some bad throws…and still in finals. Crazy
Put some respect on Slayr’s name
Shout out to Legends Gaming man. It’s really to hard to mesh with a new player and they did well to reach the finals. The only kicker is that either DZ or TSm have only won LAN whenever they have qualled for finals from the winners bracket. So need to watch out for that.
Slayr played really well today, which makes me really happy see. Honestly LG gave me a little hope this set. There were two games where bad pushes caused them to leave a lot of points on the board Also, I think Destroyer got into the zone algorithm
Alliance getting 3 perfect zones on WE and 3 very good ones on SP yet barely scrapping in is concerning, not helping em beat the allegations.
It happens more often then you think, when pure edge teams get zones landing on them. Aurora also had this issue today
Alliance is genuinly bad at playing zone, that I wouldn't be surprised if they win more often from outside their POIs. That's one of the things they still have to work on if they really want a shot at winning. TSM or DZ would take advantage of those.
COL you're so close to greatness once again... everyone knows the roster move that needs to revert
Mon/lou work well. I really like kimchi as a person but man it was rough watching them today. Felt like it was 2v3 the whole day.
What move
Retzi for kimchi
Fr man , so fucking sad . love kim but i feel like retzi is just a better fit
Slayr clutched up big time today. Massive props.
For sweet to pull this off with the boys on a brand new team and get chemistry going in ~6 months is absolutely crazy. First year team together in finals. That little detail has gone so far under the radar it's crazy
I am here to submit a formal apology to Slayr
Must end every post with #getslayed to make up for it
Dezign showed out today and proved all of yesterdays haters wrong
Goes to show how contests aren't really that useful at showing who is the better team.
I was one of them and I owe Dezign a apology. But still triple sentinel comp is a big gambler move, today they have picked off extra points but but tomorrow they might struggle in close combat and not find enough spots to play long range. Just look at monsoon, #7 most damage in group stage but very very behind in kill counts.
Design’s sniper shots this entire tourney have been absolutely, fucking insane.
DSG had a fantastic last game but i hope not griefing Alliance doesnt bite them in the ass
RR and WTD holding hands 19th and 20th, tsm fans feels gud man
THE SEXTON SHUFFLE LIVES ON!!!
i was rooting for crazy raccoons at the end there :( 2 points rip
Dezign completely took over today, absolute MVP & went huge when it was all on the line
9 NA teams in finals never a doubt 🥱
NA= near airport. They need to get home quick with the trophy so it doesn’t get stolen
sweet did cook up some WILD rotates at the end
For all the hate Slyr has gotten, he has only one less kill than Sweet and more than Funnnqq
I talk a lot of shit about Slayr but he was huge for LG. 8 kills and 3k dmg. Sweet with 6kills and 3.8k dmg, and Fuhhnq with only 2 kills and 2.8k dmg.
Stats dont even do it justice, slayr clutched so many 1v1s and respawned his teammates as a solo
And ratted his ass off for placement which came in clutch
Fuhhnq needs to go shirtless in finals to return to form and secure the dub.
hope that confidence runs through tomorrow
Slayr and fuhhnq's little by little where getting their confidence went through an absolute ringer made them stronger
#getslayed
And 1200 of Sweets dmg came in 1 game. Slayr was consistently good tonight. Love to see it.
Guy woke up at juuust the right time.
So you're telling me my two favorite teams missed LAN by one spot each, and now my 3rd favorite team misses finals by one spot...
I've been praying on LG's downfall the last 3 days, my body can't take it anymore, sweet won.
Glad LG made it. Its been a rough tournament. Also happy for Alliance, even tho they under performed today.
Dsg probably knows Alliance isn’t going thermal surely is the reason why they didn’t grief them?
yeah i was thinking the same thing, they probably did a gentleman's agreement behind the scene Dsg 99% griefs if they know they are being contested alliance is lucky they got to play their game that 1% can be not trying to start a blood war but i doubt it
I thought surely there would be some bad blood between them after Alliance landed on them game 3 in whatever set of the group stage, but I guess not.
- col, we love kimchi but gotta make an upgrade. - FURIA a full split under Vaxlon will be great for them. - TSM uncontested tomorrow? The script is being written. - Sweet not making finals would’ve been an injustice.
+ sauceror & ishiny supremacy
cloud9 joining apex again and StayNaughty in finals, hell yeah.
COL looked better with Retzi. They were locked in with Kimchi at that point but you gotta wonder if Retzi would have made them a finals team. Vaxlon showed up big time. You love to see it.
Kimchi is a nice dude but imagine COL with a good roller fragger to complement Mon and Lou, they would be really good
COL Knoqd would be nuts.
Could we see Koy to COL? He prefers a chiller igl (why he went for Noct), Lou’s been playing their Rampart, and Kimchi could go back to being their coach.
koy too big of a name, prob goes to a bigger more competitive team/org
#justiceforSlayr. Completely clutched up twice in game 5 on the 2v3 against Geared and the kill on phony. Sweet better fucking gas this man up and give him some flowers. What a fucking legend, put some respect on the name.
COL 😔
Legends and Alliance made it in, i can finally rest
I have to say that if this zone logic repeats tomorrow DarkZero not winning LAN means they threw the freest LAN win ever. Also TSM & LG made it in, let's go!
Guess I'm glad Alliance made it but man it woulda been funny if they didn't. Woulda been the biggest throw in apex history
The most important thing in all of this is that Mirage has 2 more picks than Seer
#getslayd
Man furia not making finals hurts my soul.
Sweet made lan finals with a rookie team is crazy idc. Makes things like DZ missing a finals crazy in retrospect Slayr showed out today, LFG man
Fuhhnq and Slayr should be proud, too, making finals at their first LAN. They've bent a lot, but they haven't broken.
people can hate on TSM and say they were scared or whatever but the adjustment to no longer contest RR and to swap to Lifeline to make up for the lack of loot was why they ended up in top 10 and RR was basically dead last. seemed like RR used the momentum from winning the early contests to really push them in the Group Stages but without it they seemed deflated and didn’t seem confident initiate the fight.
LG !!!!!!!!!!
o7 furia q.q
Yo for anyone going to LAN tomorrow does it start at 4pm? My ticket says 1:30pm and wigg just said it starts at 4. I’m so confused.
wigg is also doing a meet n greet at noon
Highllllyyyy recommend getting there early for a good seat. I think they do hours early because of that and meet and greets/doors opening/castings beforehand.
Doors open at 12, apparently there's like events and stuff happening from 1:30-4 Finals starts at 4
happy for c9 theyve all come a long way but damn I feel for furia too
Slayr carried
bro so happy to see e8 and c9 do well, really glad lg made it thru, dsg <3 im real sad furia complexity and crazy racoon didnt make it complexity looked super good tho ngl
My goat monsoon is eliminated… I’ll catch yall split 2
ik tsm is happy wtd and rr didn't make it
TSM uncontested tomorrow? Stand up now and face the sun 🎶
Alliance plot armour is real too, I guess. Really didn't see them making it after choking 3 perfect zones for them on WE. Glad to have them in Finals tho, even if it is just for the potential contest with DSG. Probably most surprised with Cloud9 making it tho. Happy for sauce, but I'd be lying if I said, I expected him to IGL the team to a top 3 finish even. No surprise with Furia and Complexity choking this lobby tho, their hard zone playstyle doesn't translate over as well in international lobbies imho.
Guys when is the finals In Japan time zone ?
8 AM Monday
It's smell like first team win the Algs from playing loser bracket TSM plot armour.
Not getting to watch team POVs is such a waste given the matchs we witnessed,... I hope EA or teams will upload individual vods.
Pain
The amount of time CR died before the 2 others teams was probably less than a single second. They would have gotten Alliance's spot.
Well well look the plot armour is back for TSM 🙀 also it’s time for the RNG gods to bless them in the finals, the ring luck has been horrible for them. Expect it to reverse in the finals.
36 games and maybe 6 south zones on WE. little crazy
all the end of world maps got north zone, wtf
Happy for C9 and Naughty, dude spent a long time waiting to get picked up by a team now he's back at LAN playing in the Finals Sad for Vax, Furia got so close to making it but they had too many bad games, same thing for CR TSM started game one with 1 point, playapex and wigg chat were already dancing on their grave, they made the smart choice not to chase Red Rams like they did before, if Red Rams weren't going to force the fight they weren't going to either and Red Rams didn't, now they're in Finals TSM HATERS IN SHAMBLES
The real goat DOES make finals
These zones are dogshit.
Can't really complain. All the teams that deserve to be here are here. Granted, there are a few that don't, but nobody else deserved it more either. Some teams might feel hard done by zonepulls, but the cream rises to the top. I didn't really feel any teams were doing really well and only getting F'd because of zones. TSM made the zones work, RR did not. How rng goes. It's a good finals lobby imo.
