The Story of Caps
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 01. 2019
- Europe is renowned for its mid laners, and though there have been times where their strength wavered there has always been another generation of great European mids to take on the mantle.
And in some ways, it feels like it has all been building up to Caps.
This is his story.

If you guys EVER change the person who talks in these documentaries I will never watch one again this guys voice is so clean so clear it’s just so good * for these documentaries
Why not buy some shirts he always plugs it hahah
People said they would stop watching the LCK after Monte and DoA left. Same thing when Deman and Joe Miller left. Let's not jump the gun here.
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback :) -Josh
I love how he talks like it's the most serious thing ever in the world xD
💯
"I'm going to smash Perkz so hard he's gonna think it's an international tournament" - Caps. I liked him straight away
weird theyre now in the same team forming the best superteam EU has created yet
pretty ironic since caps has been absolutely clapped by the chinese teams LOL
@@applejuice6921 Why ironic? Caps say "i will smash Perks" not "i wont be smashed by LPL" xD
2016: Faker destroys Caps in solo queue
2019: Caps PENTAKILLS the whole SKT
Yeah, that he should be happy for!
Caps is gonna get clapped at worlds
@@electro_yellow9295 Cute :)
@@electro_yellow9295 sounds like a bitter NA fan
flash wachook I’m a bitter Korean fan lol
Best years ahead of him. MVP and winner of MSI 2019.
... Yeah dudes a monster.
@Αλέξανδρος Γιαννούδης φαντάσου να πικάρει κάτι με νορμάλ winrate
Honestly i think that he got more inconsistent, just saying Fnc vs. G2. in the Spring Split, where he pretty much inted
Now in finals for worlds AGAIN
@Tactical Elite I mean it's better to get stomped in finals then not make finals
@Tactical Elite I see salty fans whos team got clapped earlier
Now Caps has gained the first world trophy for Europe since 2011
it will be interesting if g2 will be this good at worlds too
@@MrSuperbear90 they might be better but the other teams too
I'm not even into LoL's eSports anymore but even I get hyped looking at these vids and comments
@@MrSuperbear90 well its looking good
well well well
"The story of Caps"= half of the time zoom ins of Rekkles
yeah, they have to make you feel that Fanatic still got something in there....... well they are pretty much hanging the whole situation one 1 guy. Not gonna work but a try is a try lol

Who's here after G2's win against SKT at Worlds Semifinals 2019?
Hell yeah!
well. #G2GrandSlam
@@markomladenovic2297 hell nah, G2 will crush fpx 3:0 easily
Either way, it's gonna be a good game anyway you look at it. I'm excited for this year's finals!
@@markomladenovic2297 yeah.. yeah i saw this same comments but when G2 played against SKT
It still kinda hurts rewachting the Finals of 2018.
@Joshua Hunter yeah the jg even got the mvp title for his bloodthirsty playstyle
Wasn't sad they just weren't good enough.
ye it was so ez for IG ggez
Rookie faker and Dopa are kings of the mid caps jensen bjerg 2nd kings of the mid :)
@@ugurdelice297 Rookie and Faker better hope they aren't at worlds 2019, Caps would rip them both apart easily.

Captain Flowers is a rap god and an absolute treasure
That's from a poem in LOTR right?
All i remember from the video is rekkles being sad.
as always
he is so photogenic
I don’t play LOL, but I do love competitive video game documentaries about great players (:
No one plays LOL anymore XDDDDDDD this game has been fucked upppp for an entire season and riot won't fix it, but oh well
@@jacksully1823 a lot of people play LoL . More than ever . The game has just been living in the shadow of of more modern games
I just started playing around a month ago and I love it even though I suck lol
@@jacksully1823 wow Ur not that smart
great player my ass LOL
*Caps is the Anakin Skywalker of LOL*
FNC fans hate him now lol
@@WilfrriedMelendez whys that?:O did he switch teams or something?
@@jacksully1823 caps in now in G2
Wilfrried Melendez actually if you took the time to review comments on FNATIC channel, we all respect the decision he took and I am personally grateful for what he brought to the team. In conclusion, no, we do not hate him.
@@WilfrriedMelendez He was supposed to bring balance to the force
Omg that dad moment was so wholesome! He is truly proud of Caps
His dad is amazing guy!!! This is how you should act as a father.
My father tried to break my PC after he found out I tried to play competitive esports.
@@TheUKNutter sorry to hear that.
Darksky1001able I was Challenger as well. Oh well, I guess things weren’t meant to be. Apparently doing office means you’re successful and making millions on esports is throwing your life away!
I just love how G2's like "Oh, we have the 2nd best midlaner in Europe, i know, we'll sign no1 and just put Perkz botlane, I mean Rekkles told him to play there last year" And it worked out. I mean the botlane meta has shifted so much lately anyway having a midlaner or toplaner there just makes more sense than having a guy who can only play Marksmen. Even Rekkles subbed himself out because he knew he had to go away to learn how to play other shit, and they subbed a toplaner in for him and still did very well.
Whenever i ave to play botlane in soloq i still just play my fav loplane picks, Kennen, Karma, Lulu, Heimerdinger, maybe even Irelia or Illaoi if the matchup isn't terrible. ADC's just suck.
Wow imagine the NERV roster now, some great players!
Thought the same, that could be a LEC level team right now.
"wtf I still remember all those player names, and most of them from recent teams"
So. True, they had treasures on that team
@@avocadoaaron1460 wickd was a damn good toplaner back in seasons 2-4
@@avocadoaaron1460 true that
How did u guys not show his vayne play, unbelievable!!!!
Because its not that great.
it was awful
love caps but tbh the mic check is the only thing worth to watch from that game lol
tbf his vayne fed for most of that game he wouldve been better off with a safer pick if it werent for that play they probably wouldve lost
@@JC-sg4ki tbh it wasnt really his play but rather a good portion of luck and missplay of tristana. Dont want to downplay caps tho
Cap's Dad having that as his name on his jersey almost made me choke on my food
This is the greatest esports channel on youtube, ive watched every video with so much excitement and emotion, because i feel like its made with the same passion. Thank you theScore!
And now, he actually won MSI with G2 and won the fastest international BO5... history
Just to get clapped 0-3 at finals lmfao
@@killerassasin5752 Placing #2 in the World, #1 at MSI, #1 in the LEC with a team where more than half their players being fresh on the roster / on a different position is insane and was never done before. Which is especially amazing to pull of as a full european team.
@@killerassasin5752 and he claps faker means faker is worse than all of them
And lose the fastest game in worlds as well 🥵
@@user-pw5qx4be9p faker have a lot more of achievements than craps lmfao damwon destroyedddd G2 does that mean they are already better than skt dynasty? Not even close yet
I used to be the head of Enigma's News team (doing articles for the website and player profile pieces on the site) Caps was a super nice guy and a pleasure to work with.
coming back after the MSI win! if anybody deserves a Riot music video to himself, it's this kid. imagine the narrative! he's a game away from taking Worlds and stumbles at the last hurdle, but then he wins MSI with all of EU on his shoulders, and what does he have to say? that he wishes he could've beaten Rookie and he's still not satisfied until he can take Worlds. absolute legend.
i might be a long-time DL fan, but there's no doubt whatsoever that it's Caps who's picking up the torch in terms of western hopes for international glory. he is Best Boy and i will fight anyone who says G2 are the villains of their region ever again.
Nope
caps has such a good voice it is calming to me whenever i hear it thank you for making this video keep up the good work and you to caps never give up on your dream
That's the coolest jersey i have ever seen "Caps Dad" LMAO!
I dont watch every video you guys make but when I do you guys kill it. I can only assume how much work you put in there (not only cutting and editting but als resaerching everything and the commentary).
I do realy appreciate your dedicated work :D
Turned add blocker off just for this video
I'm from NA and yeah my favorite player is DL cause I first saw him on TSM. But caps is my favorite midlaner of all time and I'm glad he won. I love him and he will always be my favorite. Inside and outside the game.
Can't wait for the split to start!
Its on the 18th of this month right?
@@tuffyb8375 i think its the 19th this month not 100% sure tho

@@redzero6476 yeah you're right. Anyone could do what he did if they had 20 ping at the age of 10. It's not at all because he is really talented, and have an insane work ethic... come on dude
I only watched the Video for two minutes and I am already overly enjoying it and super happy. Thank you ~
One of the most humble pro player in tournament he always have a positive attitude win or lost. Always smiling 😂🤣😂
After watching this, I fell in love to Caps even more
Who else gets hyped with those first few notes at the beginning of every video.
This video was pretty impressiv ! Nice job
YEAHHH!! I'VE WAITED SOOOO LONG FOR THIS VIDEO😍😍 TY THE SCORE ESPORTS!!!
Watching this 1 week before the 2019 finals. I'M SO FREAKING HYPED!
Got swept

lmao xD
Lmfao

Great video. I like these story videos and did not expect one for Caps at all.
Aside from that, a clip you used reminded me: "When Rekkles retires [...] I want to become the "face" of Fnatic." he said.
Guess not then lol.
I don't understand how I can love these damn videos so much.
I am horrid at league, and hardly care for pro play but I love watching these so fucking much. Its probably your voice.
Caps against SKT- Claps
Caps against FPX-Craps
2019: Caps still cannot win worlds.
0-6 record at finals man, that hurts a lot, he could've had 2 world titles...
@@nikidein8753 Naw he coudln't his teams including himself weren't good enough, they were way worse then their respective opponent in finals each time.
hes the new uzi
Worlds 2017: FNC 1:3 RNG
MSI 2018: FNC 0:3 RNG
Worlds 2018: FNC 0:3 IG
MSI 2019: didn't meet IG thanks to TL's historic upset，G2 3:0 TL
Worlds 2019: G2 0:3 FPX
Dunno when he will climb over the mountain of LPL
Seeing as UZI 0:3 SKT in 2013,1:3 SKT in 2016,2:3 SKT in 2017，it looks like a kind of destiny
@@user-pg7ij8nw4j Idk, European fans don't want to deny it, but their winrate against lpl is staggeringly bad. On the flip side Lpl loses to koreans quite often, so It's like the best team order is prob something fluctuating between LPL , LCK, then then LEC, though their region sucks and their 1st seed is the only good team, LCK, then LMS
With Perkz moving to ADC I think a lot of pressure to repeat his performances was actually taken off Caps, becuase everyone was looking at Perkz to see if he could make the botlane work. Same when they role swapped back, people weren't looking at Perkz to repeat his old performances, they were looking at Caps to see if he could be another decent ADC for G2. Just makes me think, G2 have pulled off some of the most exciting transfers and personnel stories in LOL; for them to succeed repeatedly around Perkz has been incredible to watch.
I can tell that the prediction of the caster about caps journey on G2 aged really well, they have done many great things 👍
been waiting for this!
“The Story of Caps”
Editor: “Rekkles is sexy”
"I'm gonna smash him so hard he's gonna think it's an international tournament" I'm dead, I forgot about this one
Dude, this video is so good!
Nearly moved me to tears on this one. The passion and mechanics from Caps is just overwhelming. All the best on G2
Ongoing :D
14:56 he is kinda awkward lmao i like it

Caps is the reason I love LoL esports now. Thanks Caps you're the best !
This is great
Keep it up!!!!!
G2 Caps HYPE
Underated video
Watching this just before G2 VS DWG, very excited for the semis :)
Good job guys, nice video 🔥🔥
“He played so damn good that I could kick the ball” ??😂😂 I am danish and even translated it doesn’t make sense😂
like father like son... I even remembered Caps saying, "Cold water is OP because you can put it in your head"...
This is the story, the story you never knew
Great video. How can you not like this guy? He is adorable!
I love his smiling. What a cute boy! ❤️
9:02 "My goal with Fnatic is to win worlds" oof

Does anyone else think esports photos are so damn funny? like the staging just cracks me up every single time.
I like that all the Quickshot interviews has Brodin in the background

I love the fact that you can remake this video every year
wie kevin schon im ersten clip kassiert
Immer wenns um midlaner geht😅😂
GENAU das habe ich auch gesagt als ich den Anfang gesehen habe :D
LOL
How did NRV end up being last while they had Caps, Upset and Memento? Thats insane
What hurts the most is that i started playing league in 2018 january and i only knew about Fnatic as a team i didnt know their history or anything but i started watching them and i was fan of them..and 2018 was most sucesfull for them, they was so lucky with journy to the finaly of world with rng and kt dropout and i tought it was their year and i was already thinkg about spending money on new fnc skins but then finals hapend and damm i was pissed of that loos i was heartbroken...and when caps left i acctualy went crying cause there is no chance they will win worlds now
great videos - thanks
HOLY POGGERS!
You should do a video on the origins of “the story of” for april fools.
This was seriously amazjng
Was waiting for this

GAMS First game against FNC was so insane, i watched it 3 times in a row, and still couldnt believe the outcome.
What about the Story of Rookie ? would be sick :)
that sure would be, in chinas shadow for the longest time, was not known by many if any outside of the eastern scene until this years worlds, he was even shunned by his own ppl for abandoning korea for china
Yes rookie's story would be great. Also we get to know more the Korean exodus
SomeRandomCZcamsUser123 Rookie has been second best solo queue mid for a while in china only outshined by who I would say is the best play in the world Dopa
@@asch220 but he was barely talked about competitive wise because he never made it worlds until last season
@@somerandomyoutubeuser1232 He made worlds in 2015 and was ranked #5 in the top 20.
Who's here after G2's loss against FPX at Worlds Semifinals 2019?
they just lost xD
Finals*
I was at viewing event for worlds final, I study in Australia and I walked in the bar, I was probably the only IG fan… the roars and screams whenever FNC killed an IG member, made me completely silent when IG won…I dont wanna die…
It's Thanks Giving, everybody is happy, they are all having a good time at the dining table, sharing the moments of life how rough some times can be and how life goes on no matter what. Caps' family members are having a good time. "Which is better? Dota or League of legends?" shouts a young cousin. Caps looks at his older brother they have eye contact. The history is written XD
if G2 won the finals, I look forward seeing caps character as the lead on the next World OST
3-0 bicc
Its Faker in worlds song even though he didn't make it to worlds
True legend
Tbh i didn't expected G2 Caps. Not now that they made a great run with FNC. But I'm not salty about it. GO EU!
Till this day, we havent had a single player permanently dethrone Caps and he still sits above everyone in the region. The Goat
I love caps because he's always smile
