fun fact: on round 22 of icebox chronicle cancelled the plant and got killed, which nearly costed them the round and likely even the game. Turns out Chronicle did not cancel, it was a bug which didn't allow him to plant, he started repeating "I can't plant", but his teammates kept their cool and their response was "then we fight". Straight out of a movie lmao. (source: literally their comms, they are up on youtube)
As a longtime Chronicle/Gambit fan, I got to see and cheer for Fnatic on 4/5 matches. I was there front row regardless of the opponent, stressed out and passing out almost every game. Seeing them win was a dream come true and reliving this is bringing tears to my eyes.
@@aronviranyi458 I did pay for it, but I'd say I was quite lucky when buying it bc it was very hard to get first row tickets... Specially for Semis and Final
I love when alfajer clutched, no one noticed until it showed "clutch". They were just cheering and then when they noticed that he clucthed, they just started groaning. Watching the finals live was like nothing else.
When Fnatic was down 11-3, I remember leaving the stream saying "fck that" then checked VLR after 10min to see the final score but I saw fnatic coming back, I tuned back in and witnessed history being made.
I was playing ranked at the time someone in my discord said they were down 11-3 and I out loud said damn they almost pulled it off, to my surprise an 10 mins later me and everyone else in that call were screaming for their comeback
when they went 9-3 down i queued into a swiftplay and talked about the game with my teammates. Final round I tab out to see fnatic coming back and I told them. Glad to have experience valorant history.
I will never stop watching content about the FNC vs Loud Icebox final map. It's the best Valorant match I have watched....ever. The mental of the FNC players is God level. Great video!
I became a Fnatic Valorant fan in the end of 2021, when they got 2nd in the EMEA Stage 2 Challengers finals in an thrilling 2:3 final against Liquid. Mistic was still part of team then (now btw. playing for an very exciting new Apeks team), but the main reason why I instantly liked this team was not even Derkes crazy plays (he already did insane stuff back then), but Boaster. That dude is the greatest IGL in the Valorant pro scene - such a charismatic and lovely dude who cares for his team like they're his family. And now... with Alfajer, Chronicle and in the end also Leo becoming part of Fnatic, it's not only the statistically worlds best team on 3 individual positions and several agents (Derke - Dualist, Leo - Initiator / Sova, Alfajer - Sentinel / Killjoy, Chronicle - Breach / Brimstone, Boaster - IGL), but also such a nice group of funny dudes living their dream. It's such a fun to watch these insane talents rocking this game. The W-W-L-L-W final against LOUD at LOCKIN was more thrilling than the last Champions League final to me. I'm so excited for VCT 2023 and 2024, since there are so many good new teams coming up with all the Challenger leagues right now (EMEA alone has 8 leagues in which teams are qualifying for the qualification for VCT, but also North America, Pacific and South America regions have many teams to qualify - so only the best of the best will be there in the end).
This is top tier content; it legit looks like something Riot would broadcast at the end of the event. I'll fix that, you did better. Thanks for the 32 min of brilliance
Loud with a new lineup against fanatic with 3 years of consecutive defeats, world champion is Loud, this tournament is just the opening of the year, you are very innocent
It sucks that the "fans" there had no sportsmanship and left the arena immediately after Loud lost. I'm sure that those 5/10 minutes they saved totally changed their lives.
@@quemuraa It literally wasn't, stop coming up with this excuse. It was only "a real worry" because your team lost, if Loud won everyone would have stayed for literally 10 minutes more at most, but it's a known fact that Brazilians are not good sports, it's the same in every sport and every tournament hosted in Brazil.
@@spammus1Sadly, tournaments in Brazil sell tickets very well (if a competitive Brazilian team is involved) so there will probably be another tournament in Brazil, just not in the upcoming few years.
Veeery good edit bro. This is so well done. I've been struggling someone who can capture that final match so well that someone could understand jsut how big the 3-11 comeback was. Definetly something to show my non-Valorant understanding friends :D
I am not even that hard Valo follower and fanatic isn't my favorite. But this video gave me chills, wow your narrative and editing skills are spectacular.
i've loved chronicle ever since gambit, he was my favourite and it was sad seeing them go. it feels so nice seeing him in fnc and watching their match through this vid has put me on edge t--t. well deserved win.
I cannot appreciate enough. You are among the best story tellers when it comes to valorant. The music, the narration. It's perfecttttt ❤ I watched the final live at 5 in the morning and I still watch it again and again. Beautiful Brilliant Immaculate work. And the way you end the video. No over narration. I am commend. That's the stamp. You ❤
Another Commend upload = another banger vid. I'll admit it, when I saw Fnatic take the series against Furia convincingly, I told my friends "I'm not gonna get my hopes up for Fnatic, they choke every international LAN they look promising in." Who would've known that I'd be screaming for their 3-11 comeback against Loud on Icebox. Boaster, Derke, and Mini, have deserved to lift a trophy for Fnatic for YEARS. Alfajer was robbed of his chance to prove himself in Istanbul. Chronicle was a member of the best VCT roster to ever come out of EMEA, Gambit. I believe Leo single-handedly pulled Guild Esports out of complete obscurity in the EMEA scene. Every time I think that VCT can't get me more emotionally invested, they pull me back in. That Boaster interview had me in tears.
Your videos are edited really well and your story telling kept me hooked. I rarely comment on videos but your channel is definitely underrated and deserves more subs. Keep up the good work ❤
Honestly i must say that we have to learn from this team its literally like our life, you can fail many times many many times but you keep moving, keep practicing making your self stronger and stronger until you become unbeatable , change is necessary whether its a team or your life… change your attitude and you can become unbeatable.
Huge respect to the duelists Derke and Aspas for putting up a great show and Boaster for his incredible IGL, huge respect for both teams playing so well but Brazilian crowd im dissappointed
Go check who’s going to master Shanghai. Where’s is KC huh? Fnatic 2-0 on KC and a comeback 3-2 on TH, what a revenge.Fnatic is 1st in EMEA, but where’s KC? No where to be seen. L to all the KC fans, don’t be so confident. You guys are just a rookie, don’t talk too much. It’s just gonna make you guys look like a clown.
Also shoutout to Chronicle, I may be biased, but man played all four roles on a final and played roles he hasn't played either ever or in a long time...
Great video man, really great video. You made me cry again. That was the best valorant game ever and, as a Fnatic fan from the very beginning, when we won I was overwhelmed with emotions. What a game and what a team🧡🖤
My man is not doing leo enough justice in the introduction. Leo has been a real contender for best initiator in the world for a long time and is not just "the best sova in Europe".
Since the day fnatic came in valorant pro scene....it was my favourite and since that day I really wanted fnatic to win a trophy... This win was so overwhelming and heartly... So happy to see loud kids cry and devastated...
Yeah that’s a good thing to mention. Everyone was on Deph (the IGL) for not fragging. But the “prodigy” and the up and coming guy Zekken didn’t do too well either.
sounds pathetic but I almost cried in that totally silent final reel no commentary (unfortunately), just music and history being made.. haha I love your channel. keep making videos
Bro the video was so beautiful and we'll scripted but the ending could have been more heart touching with a few more words by you.. I know it's already a long video but somethung felt missing and this historical match narration needed a better ending by you.. Lots of love ❤❤ form me
