    The original was for Faker when he won his 5th World’s title. Written by u/SSSl1k in a post game thread of G2 vs. T1 in LoL, the copypasta has been adopted by other esport fans to glaze on their favorite players.

    Faker from LoL

    I was out of town, doing a bit of visiting. I heard my friend KkOma had finally taken the time to settle down in the countryside. Rightfully so, after what he’d been through, with all the pent-up stress and frustration built up over the years of coaching the most successful KR team in League.
    
    “How have things been buddy?” I asked, as I saw my man step out of the house upon hearing my car come in the drive-through. “All good, life’s been a lot more chill, now that I’ve retired,” he answered. “Hey, wanna check out my animals out back? I’ve taken up farming as a hobby with my free time,” as he motioned over to the back gate.
    
    We headed out and he started introducing me to some of the livestock, mentioning how he had named them after his players, as the unhinged animals they were. Just then, I was hit by an unbearable stench. With my eyes watering uncontrollably, I questioned through gritted teeth, “What in the hell is that smell?”
    
    He looked over knowingly and said: "Ah. Faker? The goat is never washed.”

    Was walking outside and randomly saw Karrigan making his vlogs. After he was finished recording, we talked for a bit and then headed out to tour his farm. He started introducing me to some of the livestock, mentioning how he had named them after his players, as the unhinged animals they were. Just then, I was hit by an unbearable stench. With my eyes watering uncontrollably, I questioned through gritted teeth, “What in the hell is that smell?” He looked over knowingly and said: “Ah. s1mple? The goat is never washed."

    Magnus Carlsen “The GOAT is now washed.”

    I was in Vegas for a convention and figured I’d finally visit my old friend Danny Rensch. Ever since he’d slowed down on screwing the chess community, he’d apparently gotten really into country living.
    
    “How’s retirement treating you?” I asked as he opened the gate to his property.
    
    “Oh, you know,” Danny grinned. “Peaceful. Slower pace. I’ve mostly been taking care of animals these days.”
    
    He led me around the farm introducing them one by one, proudly explaining he’d named them after famous chess players, as the unhinged animals they were.
    
    “That stubborn donkey over there is Hikaru. The horse that keeps escaping is Nepo. And that tiny violent rooster is Alireza." A peacock strutted past us, dazzling and elegant for about six seconds before walking directly into a fence. "Ding." He pointed toward a goose violently chasing a tractor tire across the yard. “That’s Hans. Nobody’s really sure how he got here.”
    
    Then suddenly, the air changed.
    
    A warm, heavenly aroma drifted across the field. Notes of sandalwood, lavender, maybe a hint of vanilla. It was intoxicating. Romantic, even. Like walking through a luxury spa during golden hour.
    
    I stopped dead in my tracks.
    
    “Danny,” I whispered, almost emotional, “what the hell is that incredible smell?”
    
    He smiled softly and pointed toward the hill.
    
    “Ah. Magnus.”
    
    In the distance, a perfectly groomed goat stood majestically in the sunset, its coat shimmering in the breeze.
    
    Danny nodded proudly.
    
    “The GOAT is now washed.” 

    Rank inflation ruined my life

      Rank inflation ruined my life 
      
      I was never good looking, smart, or good at anything. All I had was league. And for a long time, league was part of my identity. Not anymore.
      
      I met my girlfriend on the rift on my smurf and ever since, she's been my yuumi support. The kitten I've always wanted. I liked her for her voice and cosplays, she liked me for my Diamond rank.
      
      It felt good being someone for a while. Someone people would like, look up to. My rank was everything to me, and it didn't even matter we're together only because I'm diamond and I can carry her friends in flex. It was enough to keep our relationship strong for two whole years, thousands of kilometers apart. Until 2026.
      
      Her 'attractive' friend suddenly went from plat to diamond. And guess what. She left me, she didn't need me anymore. She didn't care because she wasn't good enough for high elo anyway, even my new GM rank became meaningless. She had her new boyfriend who was not only diamond for the first time in the past 10 years, but someone she could also videochat without cringing.
      
      Now I'm single and queuing against formerly hardstuck D4 players in grandmaster with not a single soul to care.
      
      How could they let this happen? Does the company not care about our community anymore? I wasted $2000 in skins and this is my thanks. 

      I learned to stop worrying about Aphelios by just playing Mundo

        By u/Tortious_Tortoise, its satire on how the average Mundo mains mind works in LoL.

        I'm a simple man with simple pleasures. After a long day on the ranch, I pour myself a tall glass of milk, huff some paint, and log on to the Dell I got for Christmas in 2006 with Windows XP to play some League of Legends.
        
        The client needs to patch. That's fine. I reheat a bowl of beans and lard for supper, and it's already at 13% by the time I get back, well ahead of schedule. I huff some more paint to pass the time, and oh boy does it pass. The client is ready to go by 7:30. Everybody keeps saying it's laggy, but I don't notice any difference from usual. Maybe I'm just too intelligent, or maybe the paint is finally doing its job.
        
        I queue up solo - normal blind pick of course. The queue pops, and Clippy asks me if I want help selecting my champion. Not now not ever, I think boastfully at the cartoon paper clip. I lock in Dr. Munro. My teammates pick Shaco and all the others pick hot anime girls. I take one last good long huff to get ready for the game, and in we go.
        
        The first thing I notice is that their team doesn't have a dt Munford. Free win then. I go top lane. I always go top lane. They have a Aatrod. Pathetic. I hit the minions. I miss some crepes bc I have 450 ping. Aatrox tries ro hit me but I heal up bc I'm drMindoro.
        
        Midgame I have sunfire and I tp botlane to gank. They have thst new champ Aphelios shootijg weird bubble guns at me. There's a tirret or sometbjng? Idk anuway I kill him by running at his face pressing e amd right clicking him to death. I miss all three cleavers I throw. It doesn't matter.
        
        20 min latr a D really stsrting to feel the paint. I have sjnfire warmogd spirit vosage and tp to baroj for teamfigyt. Aphekios knows he's dead as soon as tp channle starts. He tries to get away by rooting me or sokething? Idk anyway I press ult and run him down. I forgot ti buy boots. It doesnt matter. I get four kills by pressijg e and right ckickijg with my w on. Thst bitch Lux stole my penta.
        
        Game ocer. Another win for Dr mubdo. So in concolustn, hello fellow summoner. This you should just play mondarb against aphelios. He kill gun guy good. Thank you. Thank you. If you kill gun man, anime grliss hot. they'll be lower son. The Dr mildew play is right thing to do. So doooooo
        

        i duo queue with my ex every couple months. we don’t talk about it. it just happens.

          i duo queue with my ex every couple months
          
          we don't talk about it. it just happens.
          
          2am. both online. she sends the invite. or i do. neither of us acknowledges who sent it first.
          
          the discord call is 90% silence. no "how have you been." no "seeing anyone?" just pings and callouts.
          
          "flash down."
          "jungler bot."
          "nice."
          
          that's the whole conversation.
          
          here's the thing though.
          
          our 2v2 is still nasty.
          
          she knows when i'm going in before i ping it. 
          
          i know her cooldowns better than the last 6 supports i've played with. 
          
          we don't communicate because we don't need to. 
          
          400 games of muscle memory doesn't give a fuck about relationship status.
          
          we'll go 7-2 together. maybe 8-1 on a good night.
          
          then it's "gg" and we're offline for another 2 months.
          
          no follow up. no "we should do this more often." nothing.
          
          because we both know what this is.
          
          it's not friendship. 
          
          it's not rekindling. 
          
          it's not even nostalgia.
          
          it's that neither of us has found better synergy.
          
          and that's the uncomfortable truth about duo queue.
          
          you can break up with someone and still be stuck with them competitively. 
          
          you can hate someone's guts and still combo perfectly in a teamfight. 
          
          you can move on emotionally and still be hardstuck trying to replace what you had in game.
          
          some people have exes they still fuck.
          
          i have an ex i still duo with.
          
          honestly not sure which is worse.
          
          study the saskio way

          Arteezy Riki backstab

            The original version came from Dota2 specifically during Arteezy’s run with Team Secret and the drama associated with him backstabbing EG. It has been adopted to other variation most notably LoL Shaco’s version.

            Hey valyn, I'm trying to learn to play Yoru. I just have a question about the buy, should I buy Fakeout like you faked JonahP out of the G2 roster, Blindside like you blindsided JonahP when you dropped him, or buy a ghost like you ghosted JonahP
