A Fnatic Fan's view

FNC AppyB·9/26/2014, 12:53:58 AM·1 votes·889 views

As a FNC fan since day one It's fair to say I'm annoyed with recent performances. When xPeke got hooked under turret through the jungle wall I just wanted to punch my screen. Like I'm silver and even I have the sense to fight against the outside wall and not the jungle wall incase of hooks, skill shots being fired through.

xPeke's mistake wasn't just a small one, it was a school boy error that cost them the game and for someone at his level to make a mistake like that it's just embarrassing. I still feel like xPeke has quality but he makes some of the ****tiest mistakes 2 and he is not consistent enough with his performances as it stands

Not only that I am not happy with Cyanides choice of jungle with the J4 pick. All that he is good at is forcing flashes from enemies and by time you're ready to fight them again they have it back on CD. J4 is not a top pick for this meta or the poke team comp they were running

Soaz is not a consistent player. He plays good some games and bad others and he doesn't deal with the pressure well when he loses lane his emotions show and he doesn't recover well. A lot of teams take advantage of this and see Fnatics top lane as a weak spot to capitalize on

Rekkles and YellOwStaR are just amazing and I can't fault anything here but Fnatic need to make changes and improve or seriously consider replacing some players

Just because some of the players were part of the team that have won worlds before does not mean they are entitled to a permanent spot in the team. They can either step up or give someone else a chance to prove themselves

I'm all for making offers to Korean players and giving them the opportunity to join FNC

Massively disappointed with the way they've played in worlds so far and feel bad for Rekkles and YellOwStaR

Hopefully today's game makes up for it? :D

I agree with most everything you said. I think soaz is solid, but I hate when he plays lulu. I HATE IT. The same way i don't like peke playing orianna. It never works the way it should.

And as far as peke yes it was dumb, but it isn't fair to compare playing in silver at home to playing in worlds in front of everyone against the best in the world. There is a ton of pressure; mistakes are likely to be made, even for the vets.

I agree with cyanide not picking J4, but not because he can't play him. Strictly because they (as you said) were not a dive comp, and he is VERY dive on j4.

Lastly, being a long time fnc fan.......you should have known this was coming. Fnc never start strong. Last year they lost to VULCAN g1 before going 7-0 the rest of the group stage. S1 D1 worlds was a disaster. I know that peke was not there and WeWillFailer was in his place, but cyanide shushei lamia and melisan still played "meh". Then they won worlds.

All I'm saying is don't lose faith after 1 game. They are far from done at this point if history holds true

EDIT: OMG SOAZ STOP PLAYING LULU......RABBLE
