I am not a G2 fan, I'm just a very regular LoL watcher but mostly a LPL fan.

I think a lot of people dont really understand why G2 has these kind of moments from performing extremely well to getting 3-0'd by Lyon. I have an opinion about it that I will try to write out as precisely as possible

It seems to me that people sometimes forget what their fav org is: they are not a formation club, they are not a consistency club, they do not seek that ever, they only seek peak level. Their entire direction is and always been since Dylan peak level.

What i mean by that is their esport direction has been this : Seek player that peaked at some point or have potential and do EVERYTHING to recreate the good conditions for it. In some ways they are a therapist organization. Its not coming out of nowhere, Romain gave a lot of interview recently about this method and it shows in their results.

A method of following their player for a long time to recreate the perfect condition for the peak they Saw to come back as often as possible. They are gambling that in the right conditions, the right tourney, the right meta, their player will peak for enough matches in a row to win, and they are willing to adapt their environnement in any way whatsoever to do so.

The more they manage to be flexible, the more chances they have to peak for longer time.

The big cons of this vision is that you cannot ever guarantee a certain floor. Since you took at core players that showed vast inconsistencies in their performances. Sometimes you get Misfit Hans Sama, sometimes you get NA Hans Sama. The only thing that g2 can do about that is optimizing everything to make Misfit Hans sama comes out as often as possible. You cannot guarantee he will not die as Draven 1vs1 to zeus, or guarantee to not get caught on midlane, neither you can guarantee he will gap the soul out of diable.

Labrov Hans Skew are just byproduct of this direction. I dont know exactly BB historics so i will not talk abt him.

Hans is notably the ADC that peaked so high that his team challenged T1 in a totally not optimized fashion. He leaves Europe for NA short after to never really get that level again and is recruted by G2. He then becomes one of if not the best west ADC for now almost 4 years.

Labrov is a extremely mid player from BDS that showed extremely high performances next to totally running it. He is now in an extremely good form since a few monthes and seems to peak more often than not against the best supp in the world

Skew is a pure tilter and i think they are still struggling to optimize his environnment. He was a very promizing jungle from LFL but they saw a peak probably no one really suspected to be this high. When he is mentally stable, he is maybe the best jungler in the world or very very close to it.

G2 WILL always disapoint you even after showing their best performances since a while. ESPECIALLY if they dont have a lot of prep (not only in game but also outside of it). Player not delivering at their best is G2 whole Damocles's Sword above them, thats the shadow that lurks around them at all time in international tournaments. Because thats the contract they signed in opposition to other team that wants pure stability and consistency. In some ways they are extremely similar to T1 in their philosphy. A philosophy T1 is struggling to adapt to new player that were prepared outside of their institution.

I am not saying some of you shouldnt be disappointed, but shitting on the very thing that made your team shine in the first place is a choice i wouldnt make. If you wanted to be consistent, you would be exactly like Lyon, consistently mid showing some hopes sometimes but mostly never winning any important matches. Being consistently mid high tier is worse than being ocasionnaly top 2 world team, and sometimes top 8 world team

There is obviously other issues such as some weird draft or changes in playstyle but I think it comes down to environnement and context around player at these moments.

Thats also why I am questionning what will happens performance wise after Dylan leaves. I dont know if they will manage to keep up the environnement that made them perform so much but I hope for you and Europe they do.

bonjour, je vous écrit dans l'urgence mentale la plus totale, je vais péter un câble en ce matin du 6 mai, cela fait maintenant 5 mois officiellement que notre chère humble propriétaire voisin a décidé de faire refaire son hôtel particulier.

5 mois de vibrations, de beuglement, de défonçage de mur. L'appart vibre tellement depuis 5 mois qu'on a un nouveau dégât des eaux, on ne peut plus vivre avec ma mère, on commence a gueuler tout les matins pour que ça s'arrête par exutoire. Pour pouvoir dormir le matin je dois mettre des boul quies+ un casque anti bruit avec le son à fond de bruit blanc ou bruit rouge. Pour vous situer la quantité de bruit que ça fait.

Vous vous doutez qu'on a appelle le syndic déjà 3 fois, que les 3 fois rien n'a changé. Classique.

Ca a clairement atteint a notre santé physique ET psychique, surtout physique pour moi. J'ia un soucis qui fait que je ne peux pas m'endormir avant assez tard et donc vous vous doutez aussi que le vietnam a 8 heure pétante ça aide pas pour vivre avec 4h 5h de sommeil par jour. J'ai même plus l'énergie de crier ce matin, donc j'appelle le sub a l'aide.

Qu'est ce qu-on peut faire concrètement. A ce stade là l'arrêt ne semble même pas sur la table, on demande presque réparation après cinq mois pareil. On pense à aller au commissariat mais on sait pas du tout si on va même juste être prise au sérieux. La mairie ne peut rien faire.

Merci d'avance pour vos réponses (je l'espère) et pitié sortez moi de cet enfer
