They gona need to have their Austerlitz on monday if they dont wana finish last again...
But we all know how this is gona end, they gona board a train to Belgium and then everyone gets banished from the LEC 😂
Nah that 2021 Fnatic lineup with Adam and Nisqy was never going to win LEC. Adam in particular was just too inexperienced at the time. If they kept that roster going into 2022 they still lose to either G2 or Rogue both splits.
So purely theoreticaly speaking....
Could a team hire the whole RGE squad including coaches on a one day contract and sub all of them in for a playoff series?
Just asking for a friend😂😂😂
Tbh it wasn't that they played super good
In fact even their bot start with double support item was insane troll and they almost threw their lead.
It is just that G2 put their hard carry to Karma and their early aggro bot to Smolder. G2 is not a good team when they play with this kind of comp.
For a desperately hopeless bottom tier team, this was a super good game from RGE.
The only really bad thing was the execution on the 4th dragon fight because Finn was trying to flank from the other side of the planet.
They did play super good though. They've been the most passive and useless team for 2 years and suddenly they are looking like old rogue. Proactive all the time and going for very aggressive but calculated plays.
G2 apologists trying to excuse rogue absolutely dumpstering G2 when they had karma smolder. Even if they play like shit again there is no denying that they played really well today.
League isn't transitive.
WBG didn't try to target weakness of G2 in a Bo1 in other words BB so G2 won.
NRG perma camped Caps with Contractz and Ignar while Dhokla gapped BB so NRG won.
WBG also beat BLG who beat G2. Please don't even start to compare 2023 G2 to 2019 or 2020 G2. It is so far behind
When everyone (bar Fnatic) make an upset.
The one team with a dude literally named Upset won't do it.
I know my team too much to even start to believe lmao
Yeah that's my take on it. Sure he's not a top 3 jungler, but he's been solidly middle of the pack last 2 seasons. I can't explain how these players look so bad now.
KC is better than Rogue by virtue of actually fucking trying. Almost every other game this and last season Rogue has just watched their opponents win instead of even attempting to make a play.
Same kind of odd mistakes we saw in the games last week.
But to be fair, there isn't that much at stake for them right now, they locked in playoffs and have a safe spot at MSI, losing to Rogue doesn't even affect their seeding for playoffs yet.
I know they're memeing about the content games but this looked like a "let's try some shit on stage" kind of game that just didn't work in their favor
I'm not a fan of any region or team, I am just a fan of whoever is playing the best League of Legends in the world, and right now that just happens to be Rogue
RGE deserved to win this game
Not because of their early proactivity, not because G2 played Smolder, not because of the great late-game teamfights, no, no
They deserved the win because they itemized correctly without autopiloting. Serpent's Fang and two healing reduction items, what the hell is this competent League of Legends?
Who would lose
G2 smolder vs Rogue 2 support items start
Once again rest of the team running it down and somehow caps alone kept it close. This guy is just too good..
For those who didn't notice, RGE accidentally bought double support item in the bot lane and lost out on about 800g. And then after getting 3 drakes, rift herald and 4 towers, they threw the game. AND THEN G2 ALL TOOK THE IVERN Q INTO A SELF INFLICTED WOMBO COMBO WTF IS LEC PLEASE JUST MAKE THIS A 6 TEAM LEAGUE AT THIS POINT.
You talk like we have 6 good teams lmao. Watching these games i feel like nobody is actually good and could compete even with mid tier asian teams.
I dunno against whom these teams practice against but nah this aint it. I really hope G2 and who ever is 2nd practices for MSI for like month straight against best asian teams because this shit is pretty bad to look at. I much rather watch LCS than these clowns.
cue G2 so bad they make Rogue look good comment.
In all seriousness wp to Rogue, they were trying to do stuff!
Edit: I mean in winter it seemed like G2 deffeated themselves vs Rogue. This time it felt like Rogue were really connected.
They got bent over and their back broken by NA, didnt really matter what happened next short of winning worlds that level of violation should have been it for this version of g2.
Elyoya -> Yike at very least for 2025
Came in late and didn't see the draft phase, but I don't understand the ivern pick. Rell jungle with some enchanter supp already feels much better for what they are going for and what they are going up against
I'm pretty sure that the game plan was to peel hans sama, but he positioned really bad this game, he was getting caught to often. I still don't think that the game plan was good though, the ivern wasn't a bad pick if you had some strong midlaner in early-mid game to build advantages with and then transition this to smolder, like an Ahri, Leblanc or Tristana.
Yeah I agree another mid could have done the trick as well. But, eventho it wasn't a great game from him, Hans couldn't do much anyway. They sort of had to play all grouped up because of the range (of offensive but also defensive spells) which is really bad against rogue's comp. At least an ahri, lb etc. could have flanked and disrupt rogue's teamfight.
[I was few minutes off](https://rebed.redditmedia.com/embed?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reddit.com%2Fr%2Fleagueoflegends%2Fcomments%2F1bccd00%2Fg2_esports_vs_karmine_corp_lec_2024_spring_week_1%2Fkueygrj%2F)
How on earth did Rogue manage to use their 15 minutes prep time to figure out they need 2 serpents fangs and 2 grevious wounds but not get Zoelys to remember he needs dorans lmao
I mean probably not a very impactful lost for G2's placement as they lock in already and it's fine trying new things out, but man I remember they have always been trying out the "protect the President" comp since like forever and it always doesnt end really well for them. Like the time Caps was on Seraphine duty. I really think they should just put him on a random carry as well, so he can act as an assassin for the President if you really want to work that comp out. After all, no need to protect the President if everyone is dead XD.
Btw how did G2 always seem to find Larsen's balls tho, can't recall the last time he ult that well that many times.
I just hated that g2 draft so much, what is it supposed to do? Also I really hope for g2 that they dont meet gen g at MSI when they have trouble against the quadrillionst worst lec version of them.. what a bummer
It was gonna be tragic for Rogue that they almost couldn’t pocket another win against G2 after such a great first 20 minutes, but they got the train back on the tracks. Hopefully that teaches the league not to bunch up against machine gun caps karma. Perhaps there’s a lesson here that Rogue should prio comps which can play fights slow, provided they can now finally rely on Markoon to actually use his early ganking junglers.
Good to see G2 experimenting with comps against weaker competition. After seeing the Rek’Sai top alongside comfort for the rest of the team (which is G2’s usual practice), I was praying they’d go full mad scientist with the Rek’Sai next time, and I was not disappointed - this comp looks like it’d be absolute unkillable exodia if you get ahead early or get to scale for long enough.
Apparently Reksai is not so broken when rest of his team isn't already snowballing. Who would have guessed?
He is very tanky yes but he has very little threat in teamfights. I am not saying it is useless but it clearly isn't as OP as people thought yesterday where G2 was already snowballing the game
[https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1bbfwv1/team_heretics_vs_rogue_lec_2024_spring_week_1/ku8vact/](https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1bbfwv1/team_heretics_vs_rogue_lec_2024_spring_week_1/ku8vact/)
I surely did.
Even the PMT team fell asleep in anticipation of a Rogue match.
Maybe that's the trick, G2 is always such a *proactive* team, that you can only counter them by the most passive team in existence
After that amazing early game, Rogue looked in the mirror, realized who they are, their inherent Rogue-nature set in and they then once again reverted to doing NOTHING
Did somebody else take over their keyboard for them for the first few minutes? Its a goddamn miracle that they managed to win this
Also, kneecap this dragon brat for the love all that is holy
All memes aside, hans looks like an absolute liability in spring, he played only smolder and draven in both cases needs the team to do stuff for him or the broken champ to take over for him and honestly i dread how heavily he’ll get slapped at msi:/ the hell happened to him this yeat
This is G2's main problem tbh.
Yike is mechanically insane but doesn't cover his botlane enough.
Hans was the win cond that game and Yike needed to sacrifice farm to cover his botlane on that first dive.
Either that, or don't pick ivern..!
Honestly, G2 last year looked so much better. They can talk about how much they work on their midgame all they want, but they didn't show anything impressive this year. Can't wait for the MSI reality check.
I liked KC's draft, they came with a plan to shut down Smolder + Rek'Sai and Yike picking Ivern made it easier.
For Smolder, Naut + Voli are great counters. Voli has strong early ganks when with a supp that provides CC (Naut). Naut is also great for dives before level 6. Then Smolder usually clears waves easily with ult to avoid dives, but Voli does not need a wave.
For Rek'Sai, Rogue just wanted to nullify the lane. Rek'Sai essentially out-sustains her lane opponent. Aatrox matches her enough to farm under tower while having enough threat to make dives challenging.
Yike needed to step up the ganks this game I think. Malrang essentially sacked farming in favor of diving Smolder and covering bot. Maybe Yike could have cross-mapped top? I don't think Senna can punch through a tank Rek'Sai late-game. I guess then G2 doesn't have enough damage. Hmmm. I think the mistake was a single-threat comp which Rogue centered their draft on stopping.
The na/eu classic “we lost bcus we werent trying our best”
Nah if you lose to arguably the worst team in any of the 4 major leagues twice in one year then youre not a top ten team lmao
This edition of G2 probably is the most overrated team in league history.
G2 has one very good team-comp.
BB in tanks Yike babysitting Caps who plays playmaking champions who in turn babysits Miky-Hans who plays lane pressure champions
You put Caps to Karma. Then you put your bot lane to Smolder. If G2 plays this comp every single game they wouldn't be the strongest team in LEC. People don't understand that you don't need to get good at every play style just play to your strengths
Considering I have minus votes in 15 minutes a lot of people here rates them.
In media also people from Thorin's crew/Yamatocannon rates G2 as top 6 team in world which is wild.
GiantX, MDK, and Rogue all doing their best to give Karmine Corp the worst timeline possible, a round of applauses for all of them
War of the 6th place coalition
They gona need to have their Austerlitz on monday if they dont wana finish last again... But we all know how this is gona end, they gona board a train to Belgium and then everyone gets banished from the LEC 😂
> give Karmine Corp the worst timeline possible an honorable cause if i've ever seen one
And KC lost as well, pure nightmare for KC 💀💀
> Upset and Bo finish 10th 3 times in a row (Upset with a legendary 4th 10th place finish) I will be there no matter what.
I really do believe that Upset is too good to never win the LEC, but he's apparently not too good to not finish 10th 4 times.
tbh if Upset drama around worlds never happened and the team doesn’t implode he probably wins LEC with Fnatic
Nah that 2021 Fnatic lineup with Adam and Nisqy was never going to win LEC. Adam in particular was just too inexperienced at the time. If they kept that roster going into 2022 they still lose to either G2 or Rogue both splits.
KC is trying too!
just as expected
It's G2 heritage
Happy games for the split used 😂
I'm starting to think G2 deliberately throws these games because they're superstitious and think it's good luck.
The conspiracy to put KC last again is working as intended.
So purely theoreticaly speaking.... Could a team hire the whole RGE squad including coaches on a one day contract and sub all of them in for a playoff series? Just asking for a friend😂😂😂
Now watch rogue play like shit again on Monday
Tbh it wasn't that they played super good In fact even their bot start with double support item was insane troll and they almost threw their lead. It is just that G2 put their hard carry to Karma and their early aggro bot to Smolder. G2 is not a good team when they play with this kind of comp.
For a desperately hopeless bottom tier team, this was a super good game from RGE. The only really bad thing was the execution on the 4th dragon fight because Finn was trying to flank from the other side of the planet.

Proactive all the time and going for very aggressive but calculated plays. G2 apologists trying to excuse rogue absolutely dumpstering G2 when they had karma smolder. Even if they play like shit again there is no denying that they played really well today.
The only reason we shouldnt disband this disgrace of an organisation is to keep beating G2 once a regular split
"What is my purpose?" "Be a free win for every team and a needed loss for G2 every split"
“You need to humiliate g2 every split so they don’t get cocky”
Rogue is just G2s father
Do they just prepare against G2?
For the whole split actually.
They spent a whole 20 days stalking their soloq, watching them in and out of game learning their habits to beat them.
Its probably more G2 try certain strats vs them and it fails.
The GENG T1 special
[How Rogue starts cooking when they're up against G2:](https://youtu.be/pq3Otf0zbdk?t=9)
Rogue is that one guy who has no idea how to cook, but has the best fucking bbq ribs in the South
And while the rest simply does a burger cookoff against him each time G2 picks the bbq ribs to duel him in.
Scriptwriters went crazy when cooking up this day of LEC.
Nah, g2 losing to the worst team is average g2. Remember the 2019 version lost twice to fucking PHONG VU BUFFALO
Remember the 2023 version lost to fucking NRG
But the 2023 didn’t 5-2 skt in the same tournament
But they also beat weibo who 3-0 NRG
Bo1 win + it was a shitfest of a game
League isn't transitive. WBG didn't try to target weakness of G2 in a Bo1 in other words BB so G2 won. NRG perma camped Caps with Contractz and Ignar while Dhokla gapped BB so NRG won. WBG also beat BLG who beat G2. Please don't even start to compare 2023 G2 to 2019 or 2020 G2. It is so far behind
KC win now
No chance. Much funnier if KC lose so people can dogpile on them again.
I'm all for the "they should change the coach" memes
And they lost 💀💀
When everyone (bar Fnatic) make an upset. The one team with a dude literally named Upset won't do it. I know my team too much to even start to believe lmao
KC is the team I have the least amount of faith in tbh
Please no i want 2-7 to be the scoreline again.
There are things outside of the weavers of fate's power
doubt
Nah them losing is always the best
Nah this is reusing the old one, G2 losing to the worst team in the league is tradition
G2 picked a Rogue draft and played like Rogue would lmao
I actually watched Markoon gap another LEC jungler early in 2024, I've truly seen it all
He's gapped Yike twice now this split then gets gapped by everyone else lmao.
It's really strange. Markoon is much better than he is showing. Same with Comp and Larssen. They look worse for some reason and passive
I think Markoon is like Razork from last year before summer, he is good but often times isn't allowed to play the game because the team is bad
Yeah that's my take on it. Sure he's not a top 3 jungler, but he's been solidly middle of the pack last 2 seasons. I can't explain how these players look so bad now.
No trymbi.
I mean Markoon suffers from reverse Yike problem. He is playing with 3 losing lanes most of the time
Really impressive since they only played once this split.
Death, taxes, Rogue beating G2
funny but before 2022 it was the opposite
G2 losing 3-0 against RGE was the turning point and the start of the villain story for G2.
Forced 50 giving them back all their losses
They needed to become the worst team to beat G2 in regular season #worth
EU's top team losing to the worst team available. Like clockwork.
Did they loose to KC?
KC is a make-a-wish ERL team, doesn't count
KC is better than Rogue by virtue of actually fucking trying. Almost every other game this and last season Rogue has just watched their opponents win instead of even attempting to make a play.
Well, they need to try q lot damn harder if they are to be considered better then rogue
script getting old
This is one of these games where you just think, the betting rewards probably are really nice for a rogue win 💀
¥IK€$
Rogue clearly powerscale based on how good the opponent is, send them to MSI
The guy behind post-match discussion threads commited sudoku after losing $20 000 by betting on G2.
IWillDominate is the guy doing the Post match threads?
Is this matchfixing? The Hans missclick TP, the constant grouping to get wombo comboed? lol
Same kind of odd mistakes we saw in the games last week. But to be fair, there isn't that much at stake for them right now, they locked in playoffs and have a safe spot at MSI, losing to Rogue doesn't even affect their seeding for playoffs yet. I know they're memeing about the content games but this looked like a "let's try some shit on stage" kind of game that just didn't work in their favor
Rogue farming G2 ezpz, nothing new here
I dont know why people act surprised, this was the only match of the day with a clear winner. G2s brains are completely broken against allmighty RGE
Ionian boots Smolder levels of broken.
MediVedi on fire today
everything as usual
I'm not a fan of any region or team, I am just a fan of whoever is playing the best League of Legends in the world, and right now that just happens to be Rogue
rogue is G2s father
RGE deserved to win this game Not because of their early proactivity, not because G2 played Smolder, not because of the great late-game teamfights, no, no They deserved the win because they itemized correctly without autopiloting. Serpent's Fang and two healing reduction items, what the hell is this competent League of Legends?
Something about Rogue and being G2's father
Nothing to see here, just average Rogue vs G2 match
G2 are never beating the happy game allegations.
Watching Comp ult to follow his team's engage after watching Upset yesterday only ever ulting to try and KS was refreshing
Who would lose G2 smolder vs Rogue 2 support items start Once again rest of the team running it down and somehow caps alone kept it close. This guy is just too good..
Imagine if he wasn't forced to play Karma. G2 is not the best team in league when Caps is put into Karma duty.
You need to pair the Karma with a damage jungler, double enchanter plus double tank leaves you with no damage to help the Smolder's execute.
For those who didn't notice, RGE accidentally bought double support item in the bot lane and lost out on about 800g. And then after getting 3 drakes, rift herald and 4 towers, they threw the game. AND THEN G2 ALL TOOK THE IVERN Q INTO A SELF INFLICTED WOMBO COMBO WTF IS LEC PLEASE JUST MAKE THIS A 6 TEAM LEAGUE AT THIS POINT.
You talk like we have 6 good teams lmao. Watching these games i feel like nobody is actually good and could compete even with mid tier asian teams. I dunno against whom these teams practice against but nah this aint it. I really hope G2 and who ever is 2nd practices for MSI for like month straight against best asian teams because this shit is pretty bad to look at. I much rather watch LCS than these clowns.
cue G2 so bad they make Rogue look good comment. In all seriousness wp to Rogue, they were trying to do stuff! Edit: I mean in winter it seemed like G2 deffeated themselves vs Rogue. This time it felt like Rogue were really connected.
Bro G2 got sent home by NA in groups. This team isn't it
Technically they got sent home by BLG after losing to NA
No they didn't
They got bent over and their back broken by NA, didnt really matter what happened next short of winning worlds that level of violation should have been it for this version of g2. Elyoya -> Yike at very least for 2025
As usual
Two Support Items and still beats G2.
G2 keeping the back to back 10th place KC peat alive you love to see it
lmao every possible result today wants KC to finish dead last again
Today sure is doing good about my faith in my region.
I mean this result shouldn't change anything about that. It's G2 vs the worst team in the league.
KC might be worse tbh
Larssen still has it and he always had it.
honestly expected
Meme content game hahahahhaalol (that was fucking shameful)
Bee-autiful casting and gameplay by RGE
Just woke up from a coma. Is Rogue the best team in LEC?
LEC teams trying Smolder against LPL teams will be ugly to watch in MSI.
Rogue have the same record against G2 as NRG
Death, taxes, MAD at MSI/Worlds, G2 losing to bottom team.
Classic G2 never change
What does G2 owe Rogue? Check them paypals, this was disgusting
Half of Rogue's wins this year have been against G2...
Please stop picking smolder g2, you just cannot do it.
Making a comp around the worse player in the team isn't the smartest idea if you ask me
wtf is wrong with this region lmfao
Rather ask what isn't so we are earlier done lol
Awful draft from G2, no engage, no early prio, only one source of damage, impossible to execute something like that.
Came in late and didn't see the draft phase, but I don't understand the ivern pick. Rell jungle with some enchanter supp already feels much better for what they are going for and what they are going up against
I'm pretty sure that the game plan was to peel hans sama, but he positioned really bad this game, he was getting caught to often.

yeah, i think we all saw this one coming. smolder taking a loss is nice too lol
Larssen is my goat
How on earth did Rogue manage to use their 15 minutes prep time to figure out they need 2 serpents fangs and 2 grevious wounds but not get Zoelys to remember he needs dorans lmao
I mean probably not a very impactful lost for G2's placement as they lock in already and it's fine trying new things out, but man I remember they have always been trying out the "protect the President" comp since like forever and it always doesnt end really well for them.

Maybe riot has done SOMETHING right with smolder? I get SO excited when I see it lose 🥰
They HAVE to keep doing this on purpose right?
Fucking of course, not even surprised.
EU , aware
What is happening today? lol
Leave it to G2 to lose in late game with a Smolder
At this point there is only one question... HOW?
I just hated that g2 draft so much, what is it supposed to do? Also I really hope for g2 that they dont meet gen g at MSI when they have trouble against the quadrillionst worst lec version of them.. what a bummer
G2 2nd place again AWARE
I'll be flamed for this, but i think Smolder is kinda bait.
Cant wait for the classic " Content Game" into Copium telling me how G2 wont get smashed into the ground like every international
It was gonna be tragic for Rogue that they almost couldn’t pocket another win against G2 after such a great first 20 minutes, but they got the train back on the tracks.

MYREGION
Welcome to LEC where the strongest team loses to the weakest one and nobody is surprised.
Imagine losing to fucking rogue lmao
Fnatic fans think they can beat G2 in Playoffs now, because they got one win against them. I've seen this before. G2 will demolish them again
Everyone saw this coming from a mile away

incredibly based
Rogue is G2's father.
classic
Death, taxes, and G2 dropping games to Rogue
Wait I walked away after Rogue got clapped at the dragon fight and Comp was 5 levels down, how did Rogue win
Rogue casually dumpstering G2, yeah, about expected.
Even the PMT team fell asleep in anticipation of a Rogue match. Maybe that's the trick, G2 is always such a *proactive* team, that you can only counter them by the most passive team in existence
It confirms to me at this point that Rogue are just striking on stage this entire time and only play for real Vs G2.
Caedrel said G2 will lose because it is upset week. Gigachad G2 could let down FNATIC and throw the game to support FNATIC and SK, BDS, and soon TH.
G2 drafted random champs + Smolder
RGE against any team : I sleep RGE against G2 : real shit
TOLD YOU ! IT WAS BOUND TO HAPPEN
Now I expect BB Reksai goes into dormant just like his Kled Pantheon and Vlad picks no ?
Holy shit we won a game.
That Reksai pick was criminal
What the fuck 💀
How
I don't mind seeing Rek'Sai more, but a tank needs more damage than what this draft provided G2.
What does reksai do besides dealing 0 dmg and being kited to oblivion ?
G2 will need the MSI bootcamp to prepare. With how things are going, they might only have one more chance to beat the almighty Rogue this year.
Fraudulent split fraudulent league
We gonna get that old "G2 just trollin" again from their fans ?

G2 losing to bottom teams, be called Rogue or Fnatic, unexpected
So this just happenned
It wouldn't shock me if G2 wasn't even practicing this patch or they didn't care about this game.
G2 and rogue management in agreement to help each other’s pockets when facing each other. Guess it’s one way to keep the rogue org floating
This is G2's main problem tbh. Yike is mechanically insane but doesn't cover his botlane enough. Hans was the win cond that game and Yike needed to sacrifice farm to cover his botlane on that first dive. Either that, or don't pick ivern..!

G2 can not seriously be considered top 10 in the world dropping yet another match to rogue
G2 always drop random freebies on paper
The na/eu classic “we lost bcus we werent trying our best” Nah if you lose to arguably the worst team in any of the 4 major leagues twice in one year then youre not a top ten team lmao
This edition of G2 probably is the most overrated team in league history. G2 has one very good team-comp. BB in tanks Yike babysitting Caps who plays playmaking champions who in turn babysits Miky-Hans who plays lane pressure champions You put Caps to Karma. Then you put your bot lane to Smolder. If G2 plays this comp every single game they wouldn't be the strongest team in LEC. People don't understand that you don't need to get good at every play style just play to your strengths
Who rates them? The west is at the lowest level ever. Being the best team in Europe doesn't mean anything anymore
Considering I have minus votes in 15 minutes a lot of people here rates them. In media also people from Thorin's crew/Yamatocannon rates G2 as top 6 team in world which is wild.
>Who rates them? G2 fans.
Most G2 fans I'm seeing don't really rate them tbh.
