Can’t wait for another blaber team runback next year!
Surely, next year we keep most of this core (and runback another blaber team) and THIS time, we don’t choke important matches!
guys, trust me, one more year. It will work! i promise!
our budget carries and blaber won’t giga choke again

Probably done following this team after 13 years. This is pathetic. Pathetic.

Honestly, I think it's worthwhile for Jack to get ahold of Sneaky and see if he could be some kind of life coach for the team and try to help with their mental.

I love seeing ppl comment defending him ever year, but the same results no matter who you put around him. Dom even eluded to it over and over again about just listening to Phil. And honestly, at this point, I think its HARMFUL to blaber too! He needs a fresh start. Honestly, bring Gryffin in to learn from Vulcan and keep everyone else the same. Maybe see about finding a more consistent adc, but honestly tactical is fine. When he's got a consistent leader keeping things steady, he looks great

And honestly, at this point, I think its HARMFUL to blaber too!
I've said this for like 2-3 years now tbh. I don't think Blaber is entirely washed, but I think staying with C9 so long has built up a certain level of complacency.
I won't say the drive or passion is not there, but I also think its safe to say that Blaber has quite literally nothing left to learn from C9's systems and a change of environment would be good for both of them.

Fire all of them. Start from zero with NA prospects, get last place in LCS for a year or two and start building up.
Most of all get rid of Blaber. He's a nice guy but he's shown he has zero clutch factor and chokes beyond belief whenever anything is on the line. Get rid of him.
Get rid of everyone except maybe Vulcan but beat the shit out of him verbally for his laning regressing to be worse than Lemonnation.

Kick just blabber and the team will do so much better. Bring in Sheiden let Vulcan shot call without blabber yelling useless shit non stop and trying to make the dumbest plays in history. I feel like the issue is Vulcan calls something blabber says something stupid everyone gets confused and we lose. Kick blabber already.

Started following the team back in 2015.. and I'm honstly tired of missing what we used to be. Hell we wouldn't win LCS, but the team's identity was so strong, you could always come back to support the team, and they always had good participations everywhere they went.
I watch them play and they seem so scared all the time, so doubtful... When I see that I think we have a shotcaller problem

Need to fire Thanatos, Blaber and Loki. Maybe even Tactical.

u/KnifeKittyy 5h ago
bro tactical has had like 15 egregious late game fumbles in the last few weeks alone. he needs to go first

u/PvPworlds 4h ago
It sometimes looks like hes screen is off, literally standing still at some random place like NPC and getting killed on repeat
but I guess thats just his brain and why he was so long at t2, send him back asap

u/No_Raspberry_8478 4h ago
what do you mean "maybe tactical" the dude played AWFUL the entire series exept on lucian
lets not forget in game 2, he got his first KP at the end of the game when they where hitting nexus, the whole game he was 0/2/0, and on game 3, he literally had 0 kp, every fight was just him playing max range throwing out random skill shots on CD

Get rid of Tactical. He looked mentally boomed after the Lyon series. Man can't hit a single Ziggs bomb in the center. Like wtf what is this coordination

u/LightOfMeruem 5h ago
Org is dead with no resources to even get better players this is it. Look at any other popular esport we’ve been in for the past 4 years and you’ll see nothing but failure and fumbling of resources.

u/kashtrey 5h ago
What better players? The tier 2 scrubs who can't beat DSG to qualify? The NA scene is dead. Just ship Lyon and TL to LEC or CBLOL and kill the LCS.

I started watching C9 when they had a CS team, have been watching the league team since 2016 and I think atp there is nothing here for me to enjoy.

I don’t know, man. Didn’t really look like Blaber. They got draft gapped constantly. Last game was horrendous.

It’s never “Blabers fault” for some people huh. He’s the only constant here man. He has to go. New start

u/KnifeKittyy 5h ago
people said the same shit about Fudge lol
c9 is elevating blaber. he gets to play on a top 3 team. it's not the other way around.. he's not even remotely on inspired/ jose level.. and his decision making in late games is just atrocious

u/Kurumi_Tokisaki 4h ago
curious why he isnt running the league on c9 though... curious. And regular season doesn't matter, he will have issues in playoffs. Heck, just 1 lost game and the tilt starts. Lose a whole series... well hopefully riot buffs na specifically to get more comeback gold and buffs whenever they're losing.

u/National-Artichoke50 5h ago
Gryffin is just a young Blaber, and is only getting better. Plenty of other guys not on top teams that we could steal

u/42-1337 5h ago
Yeah every year it's not Blaber's fault. It's always Thanatos APA Loki Tactical Zven (ADC) Zven (Support) Vulcan Jojopyun Fudge Berserker EMENES fault.

Been saying for 3 years to kick blabber he talks to much in team fights and confuses people he just doesn’t know what to do but talks like he does

It's cause most of the roster was worse however year over year theres been similar issues of not being able to play well under pressure and the only person who has been there for each iteration is blaber. It surely can't hurt to try someone else

u/ThePhenomenalSecond 5h ago
I like Blaber. I believe in his talent.
I do not believe in his brain. I think he, and Loki and Tactical for that matter, have a tendency to have their IQs drop 75% mid-match. Thanatos and Vulcan are the only ones playing a smart game on that team.
