Honestly Contractz played so well both games. He continuously impacted the game without ever falling behind on farm or objectives and didn’t overextend or greed his flash a single time. Best performance by an NA jungler in a long time.

Cant wait for G2s manager to put their %80 WR in scrims stats.

NA's last hope turned into EU's Worst Nightmare today

"Contractz is scared, Yike is in his head." Caedral 2023 🤣🤣

MAD WALKED SO G2 COULD RUN TO THE AIRPORT KEKW

My favorite part was Caedrel sitting in silence for 5 min after game 2.

G2s physical inability of not taking every fight is why they had close series against MAD and XL, and NRG is a better version of that.

I remember when this guy celebrated that G2 drew NRG.. that was unexpected win NrG did really well..

I guess it was a good draw, just not for G2. Man as a EU fan this hurts, but NRG really just gapped G2 today. Even though they had an easy draw (2 EU and 1 NA team), beating G2 in this fashion and in a bo3 is no easy feat. Alright NRG, you have to carry the weight of the best western team, good luck in quarters 💪

as much as im a die hard EU fanboy. im sooooo happy for NRG and NA as a whole. theyve been a joke for many years now and its so cool to see a team with HOME GROWN NA TALENT!!! win this way. EPIC!

Wow, LCS#1 won vs LEC#1. That's pretty sick actually. I wish Quarters becomes so much a banger that every major region has a representative. If this ends up as a KR vs NA final I am gonna cut my hair bald.

Contractz was the best in the day but.. the ENTIRE Nrg roster deserves a LOT of respect and credit. They all played so well and remember, this is a team that was constantly ridiculed. They really proved everyone wrong. Definitely the pride of NA.

Before Blaber, Contractz was the original psycho C9 jungler - breaking into Worlds quarters while getting placed into a group with both T1 and EDG

I swear if you turn nameplates off, this series looks like the typical high seeded Eastern team vs low seeded Western team we see every year at Worlds. Actually wild. I've been watching competitive for like a decade and this is up there with some of the most surprising upsets. I love the NRG boys, but never expected them to play games this *cleanly* and in such a disciplined fashion at Worlds.

NRG was simply just a better team than G2 on draft, lane, macro and teamfight. Big claps to all 5 NRG players+manager+CaptainFlowers for such a great game

I don't have a horse in the race, I'm a BRO fan, so I'm really just here to watch Pedro watch his teams lose.

That Kench taunt by ignar was legendary 😂 definitely gained a fan

G2 fans asked for this and they couldn't even steal a game 💀

Jungle mid diff both games. Nice to see an NA team with actually good teamfighting

NRG is very good at recognizing positional mistakes. It allowed them to make the 'underdog' run against teams in NA that are traditionally out of position, and they are good enough at drafting to take advantage of these early mistakes with compositions that scale into mid game comps. While they didn't have the most difficult road to 2-1 going through pretty mediocre NA and EU teams, g2 was hyped as a team close to capable of beating the east. G2 got humbled in this one, got coach gapped too on this occasion. Thinkcard isn't the best coach in NA but he's never arrogant which i'd accuse Falco of being in game 1, he worked a comp that helps setup easier neeko ultimates, and used champions that spike reasonably well mid game to take advantage of any picks that they got out of that. On the other side, an Ego belveth and a composition of reasonably strong champions with only ok synergy, the plan was pretty sus with the comp overall imo. Falco didn't ego the 2nd draft nearly as bad, but kinda seemed based on play like the damage was done.

Caedral mocking people being superstitious Also caedral: Bro go back to the toilet, stick your head in it do something

EU has gone downhill consistently while NA keeps performing. As an EU fan it's hard to admit it but our glory days are over and will never come back. Lets start rooting & praising the NA Gods.

i am so happy to see Caedrel malding omg

NRG > EU Watching Caedrel seethe after getting 2-0'd is so vindicating.

So proud of this squad. As a C9 fan I thought the finals were a fluke but clearly this is the better team

Bro when Ignar BM’d them THAT HARD after game 1 I knew this shit was over

Contractz was always meant to be the best jungler in NA, he just got into his head after getting dropped by C9. All of the players on this team have been dumped by teams at least once, they are the NA scraps.

Damn NRG keep surprising, I never thought they would win LCS, and I definitely never thought they would win against G2. Well done indeed.

“They’re so bad” famous last words😅

But Mikyx said 'eastern teams are bad and G2 isn't learning anything from them, it's the eastern teams that are learning from G2'. How did this happen 😱😱😱😱

Contractz played absolutely out of his mind. Really impressed with the decision making by this NRG team, quick and decisive choices win you games

Finally I dont have to hear EU yap this year we can have silence as NA fans.

lmaooo. G0-2 to NA team. this brand of shame can never be erased.

Mikyx hooking the Ornn terrain at 22:11 is so hilariously unfortunate. I don't know if hooking IgNar would've worked out, but hitting that pillar really sealed that fight.

I loved hearing you say how SCARED NRG was at the start... and then the ultimate defeat on your face at the end. Chef's Kiss

From time to time I come back and visit this series , if you followed NRG when they were CLG the year prior this felt so good.

Caedrel sealed the deal when he flamed NRG around 5 minutes hahaha. Ahhhh this felt so good haha.

First time I noticed that Taliyah ult wall can actually be headbutted and destroyed by Ornn.

"we are creative and versatile" = we pick random sh*t and make poor plays because we think its swag if it works anyway

Caedrel I hope you know that you literally cured my depression with this video. I cannot stop laughing at you malding at G2 LMAOOOOOOO

“They’re scared, they’re griefing, they’re choking, they’re panicking” 😂😂😂

Imagine a world where NA makes top 8 and EU doesn't. Been a long time EU fan but none of my fave teams made it (maybe BDS but they're out already), so I'm just happy for NRG silencing their doubters.

23:38 the way FBI waves goodbye to G2 is priceless

Contractz was insane in those games, and Pala had massive impact on Neeko and Taliah but G2 realy disapointed me in those games, Miky just stright oute trolled few times, Yike seem to never do any thing i feel bad that he replaced Jankos. NRG was great but man G2 should not play this bad.

hansama was really getting flashbacks to playing in NA in this game lmao

This loss will go with g2 for a long time 😂😂

listening to his commentary in the beginning as he appeals to his target audience!!! yike is in contractz' head LAMAO

Can we talk about how fucking sick the Taliyah Rumble combos were the second game? Like every time Palafox threw a wall, Dhoks threw his ult in the perfect spot to either abuse them or push them away. It was insane!

Contractz is the original blaber. Debuted in 2017 and actually did well against eastern teams at worlds. Bro picked ez jungle against edg and won. He picked graves jg and carried c9 out of group of death. So sad he went to GG immediately after that.

came back 2 months later just to re-watch the pain again lol

Seeing Ratman be so cocky and then watching G2 get stomped ayyylmao

release the editor from the basement

3:48 is the most satisfying moment to watch post game.

People finally starting to see that firing Jankos was the biggest mistake in G2 org's history.

Contractz is honestly the best player NA has right now. I'm so glad he was given a chance to actually play in the lcs

NRG just have a new formula which makes them far more competitive than other NA teams. I want to see what LCS teams do next year now.

For all the disrespect of EU to NA, NRG fans brought back some backbone on NA. Really happy for them. NA fans, do it with me ...... SSSHHHIIIIIUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!

The guy he put over Keria HAHAHAHAHA

Damn, yike seemed completely lost on a map, if only g2 had some kind of smart veteran that never chokes instead

FBI waved into the Camera 🤣

They say everytime EU loses to NA caps hairline recedes just a little bit more.

Contractz was a GOD in this series . He hit knock up every time on important targets like Hans and Caps .Palafox performed very well too

As a G2 fan, This is one of the most embarrassing losses of all time. From now on, I will keep doubting them until they can prove me wrong, because deep down, I want them to prove me wrong. NRG played amazing, but I'm still disappointed at how G2 played this series. Now that they're up against BLG for a spot in quarters, I will intentionally support BLG to see if G2 deserves to be at worlds.

I watched the official stream live and came back to watch Caedrel’s salty reaction. NA victory has never felt so sweet

Lmao caedrel talking about quarters at the start only for this to happen XD

When you need Jankos but all you got is Yikes

love it when caedrel has to eat his words back for a EU team.

Caedrel malding after that final draw lmao

The nuclear meltdown at the end. That is amazing.

I come back every few months to rewatch this. My favorite Caedrel's video by a longshot.

Watching pedro slowly become deranged as G2 made more and more mistakes was honestly a bit of a treat

Today was when worlds got shook. 😂 let's go NRG! I love a good underdog story.

And what's more shocking, is that EVERY ROLE G2 lost. Even BB's lane wasn't in his side. This NA team looking different

Forget the rebranding, this was the most Counter Logic thing out there.

Hans Sama is abysmal

Wow.. I thought this was a guaranteed loss for NA. This is a great feeling.

NRG's loss to WBG gave NRG tons of fuel and motivation, and suddenly they became insanely good

Contractz woke up and decided to become the love child of Prime Canyon and Dandy

yike was confused this series. Scared of doing anything, and when he finally did something it wouldn't work.

G2 must've went to the hospital before this series and asked the surgeon to amputate their hands with how badly they got demolished. Did not expect this shit to happen

The best part of this stream and when he shuts up when he realizes they been stomped 2-0 by NRG, the team every EU fan wanted for G2.

Dude the commentators were so brutal and full of energy 💀

damn that was a huge jg gap

Caedrel Jinxing EU is the funniest thing ever, he was trash talking so hard on Game one and paid the price

first 7:30 mins just makes the win so much sweeter from all rancid eu fans

"Caedrel malding"-Sjokz 2023

dohkla wouldve had a penta if ignar didnt swallow him rip

Im a G2 fan but this was 100% deserved win for NRG and maybe a cold shower for G2, wake up!

i can confirm that yike wont be in g2 roster next year

that was painful to watch

FBI yelling "Bye" and waving at the camera @23:38

Barely clicked on LS' video when I saw Caedrel's vid and immediately switched. This is a way better experience than listening to 4 people with varying levels of game knowledge shout loudly into the mic while LS doesn't even show off any of his

and with that, the era of g2 is over

they say yike is still trying to run away

Love all the boastfulness being turned back 🤣🤣

I knew it was over once G2 drew NRG. They took over the spot from CLG, who has always owned G2 at internationals. Always

What a great series!

Hans sama not on kalista or draven KEKW

i hate to say it but this series was not just G2 playing worse than usual but also NRG stepping the fuck up, this already is the best international performance an NA team had ever for me, sure TL 2019 MSI beat IG but IG was fucking trolling that bo5, but this was straight up very good league of legends from NRG

Actually G2 was such a good org they let NA make quarterfinals
