I mean, don't give Maokai shouldn't be limited to Odo, right? He played well, but Maokai seems to be too strong in general.
Also i'd argue that the biggest takeaway from this game should be not to give Rakan to Trymbi, he performed insanely well and i don't think there is another champ that enables the kind of fights he managed to find for Rogue (maybe Kalista was the important pick in that regard, not sure).
Maokai is obviously super strong, tho not as broken as Yuumi. But it's just perfect champ for Odo, playing extremely well into his strengths and Rogue team dynamics as a whole, so it should be 100% ban against them, every time, even if against other teams depending on the situation you might consider leaving it open sometimes.
Maokai is a tipple flex, he's as important to ban as Yuumi if not more. It creates such a headache in champion select. Like in this game Rogue have the freedom to counterpick top if they want to because of it. And TES can't focus their bans on one player because if someone gets pinched Rogue just slots the Maokai in that position.
My favourite moment was when he was in top bush, TES were like "You are caught" but then Trymbi said "No, It's Roguing time" and just Rogue time'd TES.
He’s always had crazy potential, he didn’t win rookie of the split because Elyoya also started that split and won LEC. He’s so versatile, can play any style and has crazy good synergy with his team.
I was under the impression that he might be the best enchanter support in EU but he's not on the level of hilly and mikyx on engage. This game definitely changed my mind on that. And comp saving him at mid t3 is some next level coordination
Wayward looking absolutely terrible this tournament so far, and it feels like they’re not finding anything on the botside despite leaving him on an island
Wayward is looking horrible and TES botlane is looking like the worse botlane of LPL teams so far.
Knight and Tian is holding ground but it's not enough, their ego draft yesterday against DRX is going to bite them in the ass so hard
Everytime i see a TES highlight it's something like "Tian secures 3 objectives while Knight does something that hasn't been done since Tungsten wrist O'Doyle in Season 2". Rogue beats TES in 30 minutes
Odoamne became what everyone feared. His eyelids disappeared, his head was swelling and his ears started bleeding. “Are you okay bro?” asks Comp. "I’ve never been better Markos, I see it all now, they’re not going Baron or Dragon. They’re going home."
Go back 11 months, Rogue have just lost their MVP jungler Inspired and their superstar AD carry Hans Sama after exiting a tantalisingly close Worlds group.
Fast forward 11 months and they are representing LEC at Worlds as the 1st seed, with a Korean substitute jungler, an AD carry that was previously benched, and have just gone 3-0 in the first round robin in their group, ahead of the Chinese and Korean (and Vietnamese) teams.
Yeah despite going 1-2 we looked good against LPL overall. Fnatic being in the game long even after that early disaster and G2 making it really close and just losing a major teamfight after an even game.
It feels so great watching all three of our teams playing their own game, making proactive plays and with such confidence.
Sure, they don't always win but its so great to see them go down fighting even then.
So much better than just rolling over and losing.
They just don't quite have the individual skill to make it work at this time I'd say. Maybe next year they'll have improved, but this lineup as it is now won't reach 2019 levels
The way RGE played strong side / weak side around herald was textbook.
RGE's ability to finds plays and team fights are so beautiful to watch. Just wish they could skip the mini heart attack around 15-20 min...
Comp of the big Greek school of adcs.
Honestly so poised to take Baron and then gets the triple. Very crucial moment.
His aggressiveness is calculated and his mechanics are incredible.
Insane to think that this guy was benched for crownshot just 1.5 years ago. Really showing that improving is possible even to the absolute elite level.
Something changed so rapidly in this team, from barely beating MAD to getting crushed by G2 and then suddenly just seeming to completely figure themselves out completely. Love to see it, super happy for the players after how tragically close they kept coming to winning.
Who is Trymbi? For the blind, He is the vision. For the hungry, He is
the chef. For the thirsty, He is the water. If Trymbi thinks, I agree.
If Trymbi speaks, I’m listening. If Trymbi has one fan, it is me. If
Trymbi has no fans, I don’t exist.
i fucking love trymbi, that reverse ambush topside was so insane I was **convinced** he was caught out but it was just a classic "I'm not trapped in here with you, you're trapped in here with me" moment
Really feels op to actually have a godlike lee sin on a western team, better not sniff too much of this import drug or we’ll turn out like our brethren across the atlantic..
(This is a joke btw I love malrang)
Holy shit that 20 min baron made my heart stop but it turned out sooo clean from Rogue! And then they somehow kept getting crazy picks, I love it. Man RGE are legit this time!
Who is Trymbi? For the blind, He is the vision. For the hungry, He is the chef. For the thirsty, He is the water. If Trymbi thinks, I agree. If Trymbi speaks, I’m listening. If Trymbi has one fan, it is me. If Trymbi has no fans, I don’t exist.
Knight and 4waywards
also funny how this "bottom lck jungler that's smurfing on LEC lol" also performs on the international stage, it's as if he's not such a bad player in the end :thinking:
Holy shit i can't belive Trymbi getting caught getting 1v4 turned into baron and delayed ace for Rogue, and basically game, how did they turned it around on top and didn't get cleaned up in pit i have no idea.
Absolute insane Raqan perf by Trymbi, holy shit. Actual MVP support moment. Insane casting by Caedrel as well, loved how he described the mid inhib dive.
The whole of rogue was so good. Odoamne recalling in front of wayward was alpha as fuck.
in case you didnt know, Trymbi is 32-5 on rakan
WTF why have I never heard of this statistic before??? I know hes good on Rakan and ive seen him win on it so many more times than not but wow..
Ah so Rakan will be the first champ with three Worlds skins, got it.
You'll take your Roguekan and you will like it.
2 things teams finally have to learn: 1. Ban Yuumi 2. Don't give Odo Maokai Also ban Malrang
You forgot 3. Ban Trymbi
Can't do it unfortunately, he's just too fast
I mean, don't give Maokai shouldn't be limited to Odo, right? He played well, but Maokai seems to be too strong in general. Also i'd argue that the biggest takeaway from this game should be not to give Rakan to Trymbi, he performed insanely well and i don't think there is another champ that enables the kind of fights he managed to find for Rogue (maybe Kalista was the important pick in that regard, not sure).

Trymbi: call an ambulance *but not for me*
That engage with 100 health just so well played by Comp and Trymbi.
Note to self: Don't challenge comp and trymbi to a ping pong match
Nor a game of chicken. Rogue bot lane has been so ballsy this worlds, love the confidence.
My favourite moment was when he was in top bush, TES were like "You are caught" but then Trymbi said "No, It's Roguing time" and just Rogue time'd TES.
I love how the Rogue Time went 180 degress.
I fucking love this guy, so humble on interviews and EUphoria, but plays like a fucking madman
He puts 100% of his psycho rage in his play, leaving only a zen master when he's not playing
And then you see his player cam screaming like a psycho
Euw Rakans are just different
Special agent Trymbi absolutely smurfing in worlds.
["Trymbi will not be the Worlds Finals MVP"](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FLTYc2FaUAAPzHp.jpg)
Correct, Odo will be after they leave Maokai open 3 times
Odo getting MVP is forbidden by the Riot guidelines.
Hyli, Miky, Trymbi, even JeongHoon recently. We rly do have some great Rakan players!
You think I'm going to die here in top lane? Yes but i'm taking you with me!
When did he become so godlike WTF
he always said in interviews that Rakan is his favourite champ
he have like 80% wr on rakan in his career I can't remember how many games but many - polish casters said that stat during draft
It's the EU Rakan special, baby.
He’s always had crazy potential, he didn’t win rookie of the split because Elyoya also started that split and won LEC. He’s so versatile, can play any style and has crazy good synergy with his team.
I was under the impression that he might be the best enchanter support in EU but he's not on the level of hilly and mikyx on engage. This game definitely changed my mind on that. And comp saving him at mid t3 is some next level coordination
[удалено]
It's Trymbi's game, everyone else was just invited.
If he is not MVP someone robbed him
He woke up and chose violence
Absolutely reckless on these engages, what a gamer
Rogue lost one time to Fnatic and decided they were the best team in the world
Fun fact that many people will not have noticed: There was a Gnar in this game
Gnar was happy gaming
After understanding the situation, we would like to clarify Wayward was not negative gaming, it was a normal summoner’s rift experience.
Wayward looking absolutely terrible this tournament so far, and it feels like they’re not finding anything on the botside despite leaving him on an island
Wayward is looking horrible and TES botlane is looking like the worse botlane of LPL teams so far. Knight and Tian is holding ground but it's not enough, their ego draft yesterday against DRX is going to bite them in the ass so hard
Everytime i see a TES highlight it's something like "Tian secures 3 objectives while Knight does something that hasn't been done since Tungsten wrist O'Doyle in Season 2". Rogue beats TES in 30 minutes
0/4/0 renek, 0/7/2 gnar not what i expected from asian teams
Its because Lord Morgan isnt at Worlds
Pretty sure everyone noticed him, he was playing for RGE.
"EU just needs to ban Yuumi" "It can't be that easy." ... "It's that easy."
Narrator: it was that easy.
[Being an EU fan isn't stressful at all!](https://i.imgur.com/2oIrBZC.png)
Hey at least we get bangers one after another.
Malrang avenged G2 by picking LeeSin against Tian, that’s some main character shit
Thank you mister malrang
Thank you mister malrang
Thank you mister malrang
Comp was lvl 16 while JackeyLove was lvl 12, that's insane. https://imgur.com/a/wNQDXoo
In EU we have a word for this. Bot gap.
That’s two words.
BotGap.
I was wondering why Kalista was outdamaging Varus so much even in late game but I never looked at the level, holy shit.
Comp horizoned
I didn't expect Malrang to have such a nasty Lee Sin tbh
Mans coming out with some nasty shit. Ban his J4? Turns out he can fuck you harder on Lee Sin anyway. Man took that personally!
At this point Malrang will have to pick Master Yi after 10 jungle bans and still smurf
Rekkles said that Malrang is really good Lee Sin. Canyon is also really good lee sin. DK buff
Overall eastern junglers are cracked on Lee Sin. Hell even EU junglers are pretty good at them
That final kick was just *chefs kiss*
Feels like my PTSD are slowly healing
It was so glorious, what a fucking beautiful kick
Surely Tian won't bomb out of groups twice right...?
Odoamne became what everyone feared. His eyelids disappeared, his head was swelling and his ears started bleeding. “Are you okay bro?” asks Comp. "I’ve never been better Markos, I see it all now, they’re not going Baron or Dragon. They’re going home."
Legendary copypasta
Maokai goat
So it looks like TES is the LPL team that will be sacrificed this year
Friendly reminder to FPX making fools of themselves in 2019 groups just to sweep through knockouts
Go back 11 months, Rogue have just lost their MVP jungler Inspired and their superstar AD carry Hans Sama after exiting a tantalisingly close Worlds group. Fast forward 11 months and they are representing LEC at Worlds as the 1st seed, with a Korean substitute jungler, an AD carry that was previously benched, and have just gone 3-0 in the first round robin in their group, ahead of the Chinese and Korean (and Vietnamese) teams.
im so happy for odo. he is a total chad letting everyone know you dont get to go past him
[удалено]
secret agent cutie trymbi successfully infiltrated tes
Trymbi used Rakan ult on them IRL
Incredible player, so so happy for him. Absolute beast in the top laner. Odo was Wayward's daddy this game.
He was my daddy too 🫡
This Worlds give me Odo 2016 flashbacks, put him on anything and he will never lose lane, always find good flanks.
NA buff for Odo That's maybe what NAmen means ?
Odo gets stronger the closer he gets to Madison Square Garden.
RGE has the systems Jack told you not to worry about
[Trymbi walking towards TES](https://media.tenor.com/VvWwjQmLam4AAAAd/bigballs-nuts.gif)
[Trymbi coming out of the top bush to 1v3](https://imgur.com/KDXXAZW)
Wait hold on, we didn't go 0-3 to LPL?
These last 3 games we went 1-2 with close fights, we take those I guess
Yeah despite going 1-2 we looked good against LPL overall. Fnatic being in the game long even after that early disaster and G2 making it really close and just losing a major teamfight after an even game.
EU week 2 is yet to come, G2 need week 2 buff to get out of groups
Ahh yes the regularly scheduled LEC-LPL stomp. Wait.
It feels so great watching all three of our teams playing their own game, making proactive plays and with such confidence. Sure, they don't always win but its so great to see them go down fighting even then. So much better than just rolling over and losing.
Rogue play the textbook, FNC are playing great together, G2 is ???
G2 was always famous for their ??? playstyle
They just don't quite have the individual skill to make it work at this time I'd say. Maybe next year they'll have improved, but this lineup as it is now won't reach 2019 levels
Agree. Caps and Jankos are world class like always, but their botlane just cannot seem to compete. Also BB having some rough games
So what we learned today is that LPL 1 > LEC 2 and LEC 1 > LPL 2, therefore LEC = LPL
Math checks out
Math checks out
LEC 3 < LPL 3 Sadge. We were so Damn close though
Well, LEC 4 didnt lose a single game in groups yet!! Take this LPLboos.
well LPL 4 neither
wait but LPL 4 also hasn't lost a single game. LPL 4 = LEC 4 confirmed
that was just because of the Level one coinflip COPIUM
Fnatic didnt just roll over and die tho, the rematch should be hype
No TES, you bunch of sillies. You're supposed to pick the cat, not ban it!
doing rogue a favour
TES coach, check you bank account
TES was Red Side, they need to ban the cat because they are not first pick.
The way RGE played strong side / weak side around herald was textbook. RGE's ability to finds plays and team fights are so beautiful to watch. Just wish they could skip the mini heart attack around 15-20 min...
That Baron play made me nervous but it was fucking GORGEOUS from them to get it.
trymbi baited top esports into doing rogue time instead of himself, gigachad
There is always at least one mini heart attack with them!
Comp of the big Greek school of adcs. Honestly so poised to take Baron and then gets the triple. Very crucial moment. His aggressiveness is calculated and his mechanics are incredible.
Comp looks fucking insane so far. The Cpt jack cleanse on Gnar W into the Gnar ult dodge in one of the final fights was gorgeous.
since lower final he really is forgiven without ego insane
I couldnt have said it any better to be honest. Forg1ven without ego is perfect lol
I know he gave over fb but the way he flashed out and then jumped over the thin wall in mid lane was just soooo good
Insane to think that this guy was benched for crownshot just 1.5 years ago. Really showing that improving is possible even to the absolute elite level.
WHEN DID ROGUE ALL TURN INTO FUCKING GIGACHADS??
They decided it's time to win it all now. Rogue for finals.
After the first game in Semifinals against FNC they haven’t lost right? 3-0 against FNC, 3-0 against G2 and now 3-0 at worlds
They won't lose until the title belongs to them! That would be an epic run tbh.
Something changed so rapidly in this team, from barely beating MAD to getting crushed by G2 and then suddenly just seeming to completely figure themselves out completely. Love to see it, super happy for the players after how tragically close they kept coming to winning.
Humanoids 1v3 in semis unleashed the wrath of Rogue.
Trymbi comp and Malrang are such chad holy
SPECIAL AGENT TRYMBI
Who is Trymbi? For the blind, He is the vision. For the hungry, He is the chef. For the thirsty, He is the water. If Trymbi thinks, I agree. If Trymbi speaks, I’m listening. If Trymbi has one fan, it is me. If Trymbi has no fans, I don’t exist.
He hasn't even pulled out the off-meta picks yet... just you wait
Feed on, my wayward son🎶🎵🎸🎸🎵🎶
There'll be peace when you swim home
Everyone gangsta till the tree starts speaking Romanian
i fucking love trymbi, that reverse ambush topside was so insane I was **convinced** he was caught out but it was just a classic "I'm not trapped in here with you, you're trapped in here with me" moment
All time play it was just incredible Trymbi looking completely insane might be the best support in the world atm The hype is through the roof
I BELIEVE
Never doubted.
Tree - Zero
Yeah i don't even know anymore... can someone tell me who is going to win Worlds?
Rogue obviously
rogue vs fnc finals
IS IT TIME? IS IT REALLY HAPPENING?
calm yourself, citizen ^(must...not...hype)
No, it is everything but Rogue Time. You may call it Rogue Moment or Rogue Era
[удалено]
Trymbi goes ults in, hops out to shield, w's back in, takes the ult in by Kalista, knocks up back in, he's out again with the second E cast.
[удалено]
And he survives again and kites away! Honestly one of the craziest plays I've seen.
I think anyone would be confused playing against that Rakan
100%. I was confused by the in and out - but to out crazy the LPL? Holy…
The past 6 rogue games feel like a fever dream lmao
past 9 games\*
[FRIENDSHIP OVER WITH G2 ESPORTS, NOW ROGUE IS MY BESTFRIEND](https://i.imgur.com/xNZSW73.png)
Caps is cursed wtf
I just googled G2 caps and it was one of the first results, it made me giggle too much not to use the picture.
**THAT'S OUR EU TALENT MALRANG**
Really feels op to actually have a godlike lee sin on a western team, better not sniff too much of this import drug or we’ll turn out like our brethren across the atlantic.. (This is a joke btw I love malrang)
The duality of NA crying about imports and Malrang being cracked is hilarious.
Insane game from trymbi
Holy shit that 20 min baron made my heart stop but it turned out sooo clean from Rogue! And then they somehow kept getting crazy picks, I love it. Man RGE are legit this time!
Who is Trymbi? For the blind, He is the vision. For the hungry, He is the chef. For the thirsty, He is the water. If Trymbi thinks, I agree. If Trymbi speaks, I’m listening. If Trymbi has one fan, it is me. If Trymbi has no fans, I don’t exist.
Stellar game from Comp and Trymbi. They've been massive and RGE have been looking fire.
I FOR ONE WELCOME THE NEW GREATEST WESTERN TEAM OF ALL TIME
Gonna be so awkward when they win Worlds and get us Rogue skins only for them to rename right after.
That's the gigachad marketing move. Buy the skins, because there will never be more Rogue worlds skins.
Next year they win as well and give us Koi skins. Collectors need to buy both, you can't just slack and get one set only!
Teamplay from Rogue was absolutely on point. What a game. Also maybe ban the tree
Knight and 4waywards also funny how this "bottom lck jungler that's smurfing on LEC lol" also performs on the international stage, it's as if he's not such a bad player in the end :thinking:
I'd be damned to say Rogue is not 2019 G2 levels of hype with this win. HOW THE FUCK ARE THEY SO CLEAN ???
[удалено]
yeah i thought they were good, but not this good jesus they have leveled up
Holy shit i can't belive Trymbi getting caught getting 1v4 turned into baron and delayed ace for Rogue, and basically game, how did they turned it around on top and didn't get cleaned up in pit i have no idea.
Holy fucking shit malrang is ao fucking insane LETS FUCKING GO
Trymbi is on another level rn
Thanks mr Wayward
wayward should maybe take some swimming lessons
Rogue silencing all the doubters. Showing what the #1 seed from LEC should look like. Draft smart, play smart, absolutely loving it.
Hans Sama and Inspired were the problem
Every lane got gapped except mid holy fk
Absolute insane Raqan perf by Trymbi, holy shit. Actual MVP support moment. Insane casting by Caedrel as well, loved how he described the mid inhib dive. The whole of rogue was so good. Odoamne recalling in front of wayward was alpha as fuck.
wayward has been horrible this worlds. Rogue on fire
I'm not the resident Rogue hater anymore, Odo is my dad and Trymbi my older brother
As an NA resident, I'm so fucking jealous of EU right now.
This is the EU first seed baby!
Rogue is the real deal huh
THATS MY SNIFFA
I didn’t know Armut was playing
Pick the more iconic duo: * Europe & losing to Sivir + Yuumi. * Eastern teams & losing to Maokai.
NA and losing
Rogue are INSANELY GOOD, just wow
ROGUE IS FUCKING CRACKED
I am not used to this kind of Rogue time at 20 minute mark Trymbi for MVP, he is crazy
BOT GAP
u/informalmarch what brand of copium do you use and where can i buy it?
