EDG is ok as 3rd or 4th seed,FPX didnt even qualified to 2020 Worlds after winning 2019 lmao
For a while that was always true: 2012 no Fnatic iirc. 2013 no TPA. 2014 no SKT. 2015 no SSW. 2016 was the first time a defending champion even showed up.

people wanna talk about how it was a fluke and IG trolling etc
Which is stupid, they never give any reason on why it was supposedly a fluke either
IG played like they always did (never cutting loses and fully commiting to any fight) and TL came prepared and punished them for it
FWIW Double/Core hard sh*t on bot lane. As soon as IG locked Varus/Kench I knew it was doomed because neither player really played those champions and they just decided that they'd take away champions and magically win (they didn't)
Hey Phreak just curious on your opinion, do you think Deaths Dance is still good even when you're not necessarily ahead?
Deaths Dance seems pretty much always incredible.
Correct, which is why it is important to make the distinction from the commenter I am replying to who called it “lifesteal”. These are two totally different things, and grouping them up in the same boat is really bad when talking about balance.
I feel that.
Funny enough, if she actually indexed into the keyword “life steal”, she wouldn’t have healed this much. She simply has healing from items and runes.
I mean she specifically picked each of the things that heal her.
"Life steal" works when you're a consistent auto-attacker like Kalista. It's pretty much non-functional on most non-marksmen.
More MarkZ content, Travis, hurry up. I don't see him enough in my life already.
So what I'm learning is that Christian is the reason for all the cool shit everyone loves at riot (music, lore, arcane, animations) and that they should just be throwing a blank checkbook at him to spend money on whatever he wants whenever they see him in the hallway.
Christian is an INCREDIBLY awesome dude.
I've also wasted his time more than once by making him write the German subtitles for Champion Spotlights way back in the day if, for whatever reason, the script wasn't done in time to get it through the normal localization process.
"I'm not gonna fund one season... because i'm going to allow you to move to multiple seasons" Jesus what a dick and legend move lmao
That same line was delivered to us in like... idk 2018? 2017? 2019? when we (Riot in general) were screened the first episode of the show long, long before the show was done.
Something like, "I know we've been talking about Arcane off and on for a couple years and now that I have you all here I want to let you know we're not going to fund a season of Arcane. We're going to fund multiple. Anyway here's the pilot. Enjoy."
THE QUAAAAAADRAKILL FOR HUNI – Phreak 2015
What a legend.
Thanks Yes I know this is about Huni
Even if you exclude those 3 of the listed 13, that still leaves 10 people above him.
The list is subjective, but top 10 is definitely not a freebie. At best he can slip in at 9th or 10th, but I feel like he's more like top 15.
Obviously his legacy is still being written unlike some of the players on that list, so he could theoretically reach top 10 if things go well.
Fair enough.
No particular order.
- Impact
- Ssumday
- Dyrus
- Licorice
- Balls
- Huni
- Fudge
- Voyboy
- Broken Blade
- Hauntzer
- Darshan
- Flame
- Ray
Voy, Flame, and Ray? Nah
Solo went to Worlds and made back-to-back finals on FlyQuest.
He's not top 5. But top 10 is a freebie.
You must laugh a whole lot then.
I do. It’s great. I love the LCS team. They’re great to be around.
It has nothing to do with fake vendetta, you idiot. It has entirely to do with you childishly namecalling people on stream like an immature idiot. Do you really think it's acceptable or in any way professional for you to call someone "an idiot" on live broadcast? How would you feel if a player went on the analyst desk and called you an idiot?
If I did something really idiotic? I'd laugh along with them.
Might be just me, but it really feels like Phreak criticizes Fudge far more than anyone else. He really really harps on his mistakes.
I am prolly gonna stop watching games he casts of Fudge. It could be all in my head, but I swear whenever he does he insults Fudge in some way, although this was the most blatant one yet.
His top lane return debut was 1v9 on Fiora and I did nothing but praise how hard he tried to keep his team in the game.
Do you think it would have had less backlash if it was some kind of phrase like "int" instead of just the blunt "idiot?"
Yeah I think if the phrase was, "...Just press tab, bro!" this thread wouldn't exist and the joke would be nearly identical.
Those "casters" in that first clip are ex-professional players, and didn't start their career watching from the sidelines like Phreak did. Phreak has never been at the level of the players he's vehemently bashing for fun, but you can go ahead and jump through as many mental hoops as you want to show how uneducated you are.
"So, you can go ahead and apologize for having no idea what you're talking about."
Try more than just a google search to try and prove you're right. just because you can type a sentence into a search engine doesn't mean you're correct when you don't even understand the context you presented. K?
I've literally been rank 1 and won League tournaments before most of these players even touched the game lmao. I've played at world championships in multiple different games.
You can go ahead and apologize for having no idea what you're talking about.
Nothing lol phreak still thinks fudge is the best top in lcs
He is.
For what it's worth, this was meant mostly as a joke. I respect Fudge greatly as a player but this was definitely an int.
Should I have chose different wording? I'm not sure. I feel like most people would laugh alongside and not invent some fake "Phreak hates Fudge" vendetta.
here you go Phreak "EG will Live Evil, Dig will Die Well"
I think the version I'd use in retrospect is just "... will die."
IDK in like three months I'll use it again for the Worlds semifinals or something. Just don't call me out for reusing once we get there.
Stop acting like you dont know what he is talking about.
You guys f-ed up and should at least try to fix your mistakes.
Besides, a "bad champion only good in low MMR", is miles better than "hey we made this champion really broken for a while because we wanted to fix him, you guys wouldnt mind losing your LP to him or having to permaban him would you?"
His numbers should clearly be tuned downward. I just feel like this balance state existing for 0.1% of League’s lifetime is just not that big of a deal.
