"Thanatos" in Greek Mythology is the personification of death and the direct translation of "Thanatos" in english is literally "Death". He is considered to be the "God of Death", but the "God of the Dead" and the "King of the Underworld" is Hades. In Greek Mythology Thanatos would lead the souls of the dead to the underworld, which they would reach after crossing the River Styx and then be judged based on the life they had lead while they were alive. More Details: To cross the River Styx, the dead would need a coin, which was traditionally placed on the mouth or on the eyes of the dead. Without this coin, the souls would be stranded on the shores of the River. After crossing the river, 3 judges would evaluate the life of the deceased and would determine their fate based on that. There were 3 places where they could be assigned to, Elysium, the place where souls that had lead virtuous and heroic lives went, Asphodel Meadows, where souls that lead neither particularly virtuous nor particularly wicked lives went and Tartarus, the place where souls that were deemed as wicked or souls that had committed heinous crimes went. For example, one of the people that were assigned to Tartarus, was Sisyphus, where he was also given a special task, to roll a bolder up a hill only for it to fall back down as he was close to the top.
this just shows you know nothing about the game at all and probably completely play with your ego in soloq. he did EXACTLY what c9 needed him to do, which was have the confidence to exert pressure on the map. c9's achilles hill in the past several years has been fudge terrified out of his mind afk bing-chilling in the top lane while the enemy team suffocates berserker on the botside.
@@hushed6160literally shows you know nothing about what you’re talking about c9’s issue has nothing to do with “confidence” it’s their terrible mid game none of those problems showed any improvm
11:08 not just Caedrel, and frankly I'm a fan. I think we get short games when teams are able to use draft and early game to just shut out the opposing team. There were a lot of games like that at worlds, and it could just be a side effect of worlds being a lot later in the meta. It could be a fluke, and maybe in 3-4 months games will be shorter, but I think longer games lead to more intense teamfights, and some players just get a lot better in late game. LCK teams tend to be really good early and midgame, but are relatively less strong in late game fights, and lose a bit of an edge against LPL teams. Idk, I think it makes the game more competitive to be longer.
15:15 this is funny since lpl pro players names are dogshit. like a third of them just have their chinese name there, while another portion have random letters and then the rest have some random word that they heard
Knight, Uzi, Bin, Gala. Karsa and SwordArt if you count them. Most of the best LCK names are just an English word. Plenty of the Chinese names are cool too, just because you don’t speak the language doesn’t make it dogshit lmao. Every region has some goofy names, dunno how lpl got dragged here. We going to pretend stuff like GBM doesn’t exist in Korea.
@@monochromerainbow3760 bin is his name. I personally also just think of swordart and karsa as taiwanese so I guess i meant mainland chinese players rather than lpl players. i thought of this largely in a recent game between blg (bin, xun are their irl names. elf and on are interestingly also short enough to be names but arent) and rng (wei, ming, huanfeng are irl names, and zdz and xzz are just random letters.
I think C9 should get rid of Vulcan. He's definitely the weakest link in C9 for sure. Need a better support for Berserker cos Vulcan sometimes made some questionable plays and his ult wasn't always on point. Please get a better support for C9.
@@Jdubayou 3 actually, jojopyun's half korean and understands it also Blaber & Vulcan learned korean too since previous they played with koreans early on so it's a mix of both but C9 defaults or often uses english especially having Reapered there as their coach who can speak both fluently.
Are the first couple years of a pro's debut the most important? To their growth, possibly. To who is willing to sign them, definitely. I feel like Thanatos has effectively thrown away his long term career.
L take, of course Pro Players want their first game to be perfect, but everyone knows that there's growing pains that come from debuting in a major region as well as joining a new team. In any case, if C9 isn't happy with Thanatos, most LEC teams would be happy to give him a chance.
No Western team can play it reliably, but almost every top Eastern team can. TES, JDG, BLG, and DK have all already played it this split and looked insane on it.
Didn’t Caedrel and IWD just completely shit on Doublelift for giving his opinions without watching games for context? Then caedrel watches the HIGHLIGHTS of game 1 and 8 minutes into game 2 he says he doesn’t think C9 will do anything at worlds. If he watched he would’ve seen how drastically their vision has improved, objective setups, and most importantly they are GIGA PROACTIVE which is night and day compared to last split. Their mistakes were literally all mechanical misplays or extremely obvious miscommunications with Thanatos. Over the weekend, C9 has been the best at Obj setups and getting vision lines, and they’ve played the map super well. I’d say they’re making the same type of plays as TL and at a high frequency, they just didn’t work at times in these games. They’ll only get better tbh, Rare caedrel L.
@@yanlenqt You say it like NA didn’t shit on G2 at worlds last year 🤡 enjoy the last few years you have of Caps before your region spirals into irrelevance
As an NA resident and C9 superfan, let's be real and quit coping. EU has always been better than NA overall. Point at our tiny accomplishments of a win here or there all you want. We have an empty trophy case, homie. Even our korean LCS teams the last few years haven't done shit. Take the L.
