LETS GO FNATIC!!!!!! WE IN PLAYOFFS!!

It would be heartbreaking if FNATIC lose to FPX and don't make it and GUILD makes it by beating Liquid. Same shit happened to BDS beat GUILD 2-0 just to face FPX and go out of the tournament. Bring double elim brackets ffs

So fucking true, Guild gonna be the luckiest team ever if they make it twice

LET'S GO FNATIC 🧡🖤

Double elimination anyone? Fnatic's reward for beating Guild is probably an elimination match vs FPX... if that's not bad tournament structure idk what is

i mean its clearly not the tournaments fault, FPX played like shit and hence they lost, otherwise FPX would have played against the winner of guild/oxg and Fnatic would have played against gambit/liquid, but yeah, its kinda weird that there is double elim in groups and not in playoffs

It is the tournaments fault. If they would use the NA system in EU this problem would not exist.

I don't think the FPX - Liquid game was a fluke and think that Fnatic should be able to take this one. If they do win then hell, Fnatic being the #1 team in EU was not something I expected going into the month but I'll take it.

imagine both fnatic and liquid go to Iceland. Both being a "new" team

how many double elimination u want lmao. Double elimination ruins the viewing experience when you know that the game dont really matter, losing have little consequence (just means you have to win one more BO3).

you need to edit

lmao after gambit winning reading these old comments are hilarious...

gl to both. sad to lose such teams as an fpx fnatic or gambit for the main event, 2 slots is a joke, should be 4

Gl to both teams

Gambit = Derke Kryptonite so Ez4gambit

Pfff ez 4 fnatic

ez 4 gambit

Estiggma [#26]

Gambit = Derke Kryptonite so Ez4gambit

Derke won Gambit in his last Crow Crowd event. And he seems like he improved his game even more. On the other hand Gambit improved too so I want them to win.
I wont predict tho. After Liquid vs FPX game Im done making predictions on EMEA matches

gambit 2-1

Gambit 2-1

pls fnatic

It depends on redgar's performance
If he performs well 2-1 gambit
If he performs bad 2-1 fnatic

Both fnatic and gambit should have been the 2 teams from emea that go to iceland

LET'S GO FNATIC 🧡🖤

Ryxof [#33]

fnatic 2-0

GO GO GO GAMBIT

Let's go Redgarrr go show them russian power brother !!

So many crying fanboys complaining that their team would have moved on if they had been double elimination, this kinda stuff never gets old lol.

In the end, the teams that are in optimal shape for their decisive match win, not the teams that should be there for their past merits and to me it seems quite logical.

You can't blame the tournament format when such teams like Guild/FPX are not able to make it to play-off.

Guild were mentally exhausted after two equal matches against Fnatic and could not properly tune in to the Turks, who in turn did not waste time and did it great.
FPX and ange1 were tactically overmatched by Liquid, and for the decisive match against Gambit they came up with the condition like "oh shit, here we go again". In fact FPX lost to Gambit before the game even started, and while the pick of reyna in any other match might have looked like a tactical move, this time it was more like a death throes .

As a result, today we will see the two strongest teams to represent Europe CIS/Turkey.

And if you read these Rito, get rid of your regional tournaments and make CIS/Turkey participate in the European qualifiers. PLS.

Yeah, we rly need TR and CIS to be part of EU since they can apparently play vs each other pingwise no problem.. and also cuz it's more fun and fair that these regions also gets official matches vs EU teams, not just scrims.

And its also make entire EMEA stronger. Already versatile EU region become even more diverse in tactics and playstyles to be able to beat anything coming their way. Wait may be that was Rito point for NA have better chance to succede?

Liquid looked very bad against BBL. Only after that game they showed some crazy comps and outsmarted FPX.

I think if Liquid had their initial match against Gambit / FPX they would lose (because of how bad they were back then), which would send them to lower bracket and eventually they would have to face Fnatic in order to qualify for Reykjavik.

But they got lucky and played BBL. What can I say, nice seeding from TO...

this might be the worst comment i have read all day. Liquid didnt look bad russ had the games of his life not missing a shot and they still overcame them. At this point liquid can beat any team in a BO3.

Liquid was lucky that they didnt match up against FPX? If you think that Liquid overcame FPX on 5 days of prep alone then that would just mean you are highly overrating FPX.
Do you remember what happened in the second map? Did FPX not get completely crushed by a quite normal comp ON THEIR MAP? Okay maybe FPX got caught offguard in the first map but that was Liquid's map pick. In fact FPX did even WORSE in the map that they chose.
FPX is the worse team and I bet that you didnt even watch the matches...

Feels like Gambit will end Fnatic's honeymoon period right here. Had the same feeling vs FPX.

Gambit 2 - 0 Fnatic

Sims4proplayer [#29]

Derke won Gambit in his last Crow Crowd event. And he seems like he improved his game even more. On the other hand Gambit improved too so I want them to win.
I wont predict tho. After Liquid vs FPX game Im done making predictions on EMEA matches

What's even more funny about that win is, that they(CC) played with their coach subbed in as well. Fnatic should sub in their coach and it's a free 2-0.

With the scorelines Gambit have had and the form they've shown, I would not be surprised to see Gambit take this.

Fnatic wins for sure

FIreFistOM [#36]

its fantic not liquid

Edited

Dorke for the win

Come on Fnatic. UK Valorant going to dominate Iceland.

The stuff that Fnatic has pulled out so far is literally perfect.

g2 really dropped the ball, kek

Magnum is the most underrated player in the world

derke has 2nd ranked acs behind scream in this whole tournament. holy this guys a beast

So glad to see EU doing so well against CIS and TR

When FNATIC win this, it'll confirm that 50% of the EU players at Iceland are from the UK. Something just feels weird with that

fitthora [#59]

Magnum is the most underrated player in the world

he is actually just unknown thats all .. i knew sheydos, trexx, magnum all are good for example

TinglyPiano [#16]

how many double elimination u want lmao. Double elimination ruins the viewing experience when you know that the game dont really matter, losing have little consequence (just means you have to win one more BO3).

i agree, this is how they do it in the champions league, in football. i dont like it when they give NA favour and give them double elim and let EMEA rot in the mud

Can someone explain why everyone is typing something about "Iceland" i still dont get it

dicross [#65]

Can someone explain why everyone is typing something about "Iceland" i still dont get it

the winner of this match is going to face other regions in Iceland

Ofc fnatic is gonna get trashed on bind xD

What are Fnatic doing on bind? They're overconfident in their reads and gambit are playing like jesters.

How many rounds did Derke win for Fnatic? That guy is insane.

BARRYALLEN [#67]

Ofc fnatic is gonna get trashed on bind xD

:)

fnatic made it harder for themselves lmaoooo ggg boiss we are going to iceland

you have ur masters 2 winners right here, great play by gambit tho

GGs.. I predicted liquid & fnatic to go to grand final... But not like this...

mAko [#66]

the winner of this match is going to face other regions in Iceland

so iceland is something like major in cs or something?

dicross [#65]

Can someone explain why everyone is typing something about "Iceland" i still dont get it

the LAN tournament will be organised in Reykjavik, Iceland.

winner of this match is advancing to this LAN

...

If only there were 3 EMEA slots Gambit would make it through...

dicross [#74]

so iceland is something like major in cs or something?

like IEM Syndey/Dreamhack with Tier1 teams

dicross [#74]

so iceland is something like major in cs or something?

Kinda. The major major is at the end of the year. This is more like mini major

gg wp. Sad my boys Gambit didnt make it. Especially sad that today we havent seen Sheydos at his usual self. And deffo were at his lowest on Icebox.
Could Fnatic win first international tournament in this game as they did in csgo and league of legends?

SuperRoss [#61]

So glad to see EU doing so well against CIS and TR

only 50% EU teams made it to playoffs 33% TR and 100% CIS :D

Map 2: they got us in the first half ngl

mAko [#78]

Kinda. The major major is at the end of the year. This is more like mini major

so minor

i swear, derke has wall man, his reads are so 5Head

Derke didn’t wanna play map 3

Sims4proplayer [#80]

only 50% EU teams made it to playoffs 33% TR and 100% CIS :D

if they keep this EMEA bullshit of screwing 3 whole regions over, they should atleast lower TR and increase CIS slots, CIS is much stronger
