When my wife lets our daughter sleep outside it's called Scandinavian sleeptraining but when I leave her in the park while at Starbucks it's called bad parenting???

For the people thinking it's real, we have no Starbucks near our park it's more of a local cafe

Friendly reminder that preparing for opponents includes scouting yourself to predict how your opponent may attempt to use your patterns against you

FNC probably wins this but the drafting style doesn't make sense. There is obvious wombo combo potential but J4 is usually a pick you have with strong side botlane champs. FNC still drafts for sololanes

G2 didn't look that great but showed a lot of heart. A lot of times these strange late game decisions comes down to a lack of self belief in winning through standard play and hopefully they realise this next time they face a S tier opponent

Drafting losing solo lanes first three to play a style the roster didn't excel at during the season. Maybe its the underdog factor making FNC do it but its not good

[LFT] For 2025 in Europe/Americas, ready to prove my experience & old man wisdom can add a lot to a team. Also enthousiastic about helping with short term projects like roster building with AI/Algorithms & putting players together that synergize

Forgot to say Fnatic plays sidelanes horrendously and has poor decision making after skirmishes/teamfights

Both teams adapting very well to each other. Very smart of BDS to create space for Rakan first three given how it performed game 1-2 but the Ksante 2-3from G2 is also great because BDS' jungle bans have shown to not be worth it

Double ADC ban in to drafting losing botlane is not a great look for BDS. Hope they have a draft where they unlock those bans and keep support counterpick or pick Nautilus 1-2 when Braum/Rell are out

Crazy observation but 24 out of 50 LEC players will have contracts running out, which I think is the largest number we've ever had. Meanwhile G2 and MAD have 0/10 players running out

And 7 players who started in Winter 2024 but got benched throughout the season are also running out (Bo, Perkz, Odo, Exakick, Doss, Saken, Cabochard) not sure if I am missing one

Not the best meta for GX in playoffs but @kaasGX deserves a lot of credit for pushing the roster to 6th this year

This G2 is the type of team to try and coast through the season then relying on a 1 month bootcamp to perform at worlds and at the year ends review to say shit like "we need to draft/play more seriously" to then three scrims in to 2025 start screaming THEY ARE TUUUUURROOOOOOLING
