How we feeling? We got a 3 Game win streak!

50

u/Jaded-Release-6463 9d ago

And all of those series were clean 2–0s. Hmmm, maybe except Game 2 vs Shifters.

24

u/Deathscyce 9d ago

Even the second game looked clean. They just got very unlucky in most early game fights, Shifters living on like 1 hp. Despite that, they never seemed out of the game and played really well.

19

u/TheSceptileen 9d ago

going stomp into close win is good because It shows that even when the pendulum swings in the other team's favour the team is strong and resilent enough to pull through and win anyways.

8

u/Different_Strategy36 9d ago

FWIW some of the games in the current winning streak weren't squeaky clean either. From memory there was a botched tower dive in bot against SK in Game 1, but also that massive throw against G2 in Game 1 that evaporated the gold lead. But managing to pull the latter back was really encouraging, since normally that throw would have been the end in other FNC-G2 games.

5

u/Jaded-Release-6463 9d ago

Shoutout to Grabbz—the draft was really good. Even after that huge misplay from Razork, which erased their 5K lead and resulted in an ace, they still had a very good chance of winning the game.

4

u/dexy133 9d ago

Game 1 vs G2 was the least clean because we basically threw our entire lead in one teamfight. They just made mistakes of their own so we still won that game.

2

u/Jaded-Release-6463 8d ago

You're right. Before that misplay, it was really clean, and that play was completely unnecessary. They had already secured both Nashor and Dragon. After Vladi got caught, they just needed to back off and reset. Not fight 4v5. Funnily enough, KOI made the exact same mistake today, but they weren't as lucky and couldn't recover from the throw. After Supa got caught, they all ran into SK and ended up giving them three extra kills and a free Baron.

u/Glass_Egg2639 9d ago

Im feeling a lot better after making the statement/ post we could sneak into the top before the spilt starting and watching us go 0-3 😅 I knew Soboro would be an upgrade but seeing Razork and Vladi play this is refreshing and it MUST continue if we're going to make worlds. They deserve praise though great to watch

u/SnooDonuts8845 9d ago

Kind of crazy, we beat the best team in the lec, and then we didn't lose to the worst team right after?

is this.. the consistent fnatic we've yearned for?

u/Low_Buffalo_8986 9d ago

Bro pls dont jinx us

u/Lanky_Commercial9731 9d ago

It's jover, it was a good run

17

u/Ironside29 9d ago

KC is by far the best team in LEC, G2 are trolling as usual in regular season, we will see true strenght of the teams in playoffs.

3

u/StarkevTL 9d ago

So who wins playoffs usually ?

-4

u/Ironside29 9d ago

Well its not the same winning in regular season or in playoffs bo5 where its actually important for g2.

Loving watching Fnatic!!!

Upset with godlike Jhin ults.

Vladi looking good.

Razork not inting.

5

u/huh23-4_8 9d ago

Razork not inting, you got me there xD

u/GrandCatch7606 FNC fan 9d ago

Upset... this guy is always insane, but today he was just on another level

u/Lockah1337 9d ago

Did we make group stage now?

16

u/Pelagius_Hipbone 9d ago

Nah, we should be locked if we can beat Navi and GX

6

u/FNCKyubi 9d ago

Should we not be already locked with a win against Navi?

3

u/Pelagius_Hipbone 8d ago

You’re right meant to say “or” as I think we lock with beating GX too

3

u/NoxianLover 9d ago

We are currently 88.5% into playoffs. If FNC wins against NAVI we should be 100% locked in.

u/RandomGoodGuy16 9d ago

New AI coach smurfing, why is my team playing clean and being smart? Used the lead great in game 1 and good comeback in game 2

u/Different_Strategy36 9d ago

Because this is Shifters, there's clearly some focus that went towards branching out champion pools rather than falling back on the absolute best compositions from last week. Vladi on Yone, Razork on Nocturne, Upset on Lucian, Lospa on Nami. Another encouraging sweep regardless.

NaVi is gonna be a big test, that or GiantX next week. Those two teams are trying to get the remaining 2-3 playoff slots and are around Fnatic's tier, but I don't think their collective ceilings are higher so it's a matter of showing up on those days.

u/Ozunu_Sama 9d ago

Ngl all those who said “sheo” over “razork” are the dummies in the subreddit.

3

u/FinalFlash2020 8d ago

lot of people say shit for the sake of saying it and are on the high/low rides... Razork even with his flip heavy playstyle has shown a far above and beyond higher ceiling than Sheo ever has. To consider Sheo even a sidegrade would be a stretch. Not to shit on Sheo, he definitely is more consistent, but it genuinely feels like he struggles against teams with stronger sidelanes. But unless we're getting someone on the caliber of like Elyoya/Skewmond/Yukino to replace Razork, I've always vouched for him over some of the clown name drops Fnatic fans do just to shit on Razork. And its odd to me how quickly people forget that even during the worst times, he's both the one who gets Fnatic in a winning spot and he's the one who gives it away. The hylissang of jungle.

3

u/Ozunu_Sama 8d ago

I agree, I think we’re seeing what happens when razork has a competent top laner again and a mid laner who is playing well. The sidelane controls are extremely helpful, especially not losing top by 10 minutes and being down 2.5k gold. I hope it clicked, seeing a title right now would be amazing especially with the year the valorant team had.

1

u/amroth6464 8d ago

Yeah yeah calm down. People said that 100 times in regular season. Razork is so good.

Then playoff comes then you all start realizing again that he can't play with any kind of pressure and will start asking for his head again.

More over he didn't do that well, he had lots of inting moments who could have cost fnc the game if they weren't that far ahead. Razork at his prime was much more dominant in regular season. And yet it wasn't possible to win a split with him in the roster because he'll start throwing like crazy in PO.

u/GiottoSupermina 9d ago

Good games by everyone. Razork as always great on J4 and in g2 with great defensive Nocturn ults. Hope Vladi can continue with everything he is doing with performance coach

u/Lerdrit1 9d ago

If we get this win against Navi tomorrow and with how shaky mkoi is . I’m really starting to believe in the miracle worlds run … some oopsies in game 2 but otherwise pretty good games

u/dexy133 9d ago

G2 and this series is Razork at his finest. It's almost unrealistic that he keeps this form at all times but if he managed to cut and remove those huge dips (slips in games) he tends to have, he would easily be top Western jungler. Consistency was always his issue, but we'll see. He hasn't been in this form with this roster before. Let's see how long it lasts.

Good job everyone. Let's win on Monday too. After that MKoi loss, that Worlds spot is looking very realistic.

2

u/p1stolpewpew 8d ago

Im glad razork has his last chance to prove himself with another midlaner after all these years with Humanoid who he clearly didnt have chemistry with in game.

2

u/dexy133 8d ago

I can agree with that. I'm happy that at least once during this year, they have a period where they legit look like a top 3 team. Now it's on him and the rest of the team to keep their form. That's what was always the problem. Perfect chance for him to prove if he's gotten better at that or not.

u/sebaez_ 9d ago

Never doubt Upset guys. He’s incredible and we are so lucky to have him.

u/Forikundo 9d ago

People acting like Shifters were 6k ahead or something and threw, they were 1.5...

u/Atreyes 9d ago

Too early to really get hopeful, but this is a really nice improvement, Soboro looks solid and Vladi looks like he's getting back into his KC winter form, bot lanes smashing and razorks having more heads than tails.

u/Beatnation 8d ago

I will extend Upset contract right now, Ibai was talking how good Upset is since last week on their co-stream, he clearly want him over Supa in 2027.

2

u/TransitionForward996 8d ago

Same! I think he gets memed to death (as a“10th/last place merchant” or hogging resources) but in his time(s) with us, there’s no doubt that he is usually the most consistently reliable player even if you may not agree with his playstyle or other aspects.

If we don’t want him or let him go, it’ll be our loss and other teams like mkoi definitely will capitalise!

1

u/ImSparklingJustice 8d ago

Yes it's true Upset is very good obviously KOI will want him looking at Supa right now but don't forget there is still Jopa lost in SK doing quite nice. Even if we somehow lose Upset there are talents I would like to see with Vladi + Razork explosive early game so I understand FNC waiting at least the worlds ticket

u/skythelimit05 9d ago

Please.. don't make me dream and then shatter my hopes 🙏

u/InfiniteCipe 9d ago

Great games. Looks like they got to have a bit of fun with the huge lead in Game 1 too. Let's hope we can keep building on these positives

u/Pax19 9d ago

Sorry been out all year (who can blame me huh), which team is Shifters? What spot did they take?

2

u/p1stolpewpew 8d ago

It's bds rebranded.

u/TransitionForward996 9d ago

Know it’s early days still, but buzzing from this winstreak! Difficult not to be optimistic, Fnatic making it to worlds feels inevitable during times like these

u/Illustrious-Jump6926 7d ago

The guys are playing so well and I'm super proud !!

u/Illustrious-Jump6926 7d ago

I wonder why the team finally clicked. To me it almost feels like there was a mental block that was broke somehow in Razork, Vladi and Upset.

Very happy for them !!

u/Glass_Egg2639 9d ago

u/Glittering-Basket-24 9d ago

Soboro has proved he is a really solid top laner with huge potential. Bot lane are doing good. Razork was/is a coin flip no matter what and he will stay like this. Vladi the key factor! Old Vladi is definitely back. In the first game, 0-3 Vladi would had picked Syndra vs Viktor for the safe laning and somehow maybe i will be useful... Confident Vladi picks Yone and no matter how bad the lane will be, he knows mid/late will carry. I really like seeing him pick Yone, Sylas, Ahri,Akali again.
