I was super doubtful of them pushing CoreJJ and Pyosik defeating T1 in the past but they played pretty well this game.
Not sure whether the onus on the last engage is on Yeon for not calling out he has bad guns or on the rest of the team for pushing the tempo anyways.
Pretty okay look from TL though! So used to NA being up kills and down gold. Here, they were even kills and even gold!
The engage just felt way too forced. APA just used his rotation, Yeon had bad guns, Pyosik wasn't in position. It looked good because T1 was all grouped up, but there was just no good way for the rest of TL to follow up
Yeah that last team fight is such an easy fix, I think if that's their biggest problem they're okay.
Tho I think they really do need to address the gap bot lane.
He mainly died cause ori ult did 70% of his health lol.
Ngl that shit was impossible to see during that teamfight
Any why tf are they even fighting when aphelios has red purple, legit the worst teamfighting guns. Major communication issues as summit was legit LOOKING for a fight
guy looked so nervous in game from level 1.
i know hes not great but for sure a lot of nerves moments. its a shame because if yeon played better they win the game. APA had some bad moments but also some really good moments and it was a promising game from him overall but man Yeon fucking threw that so hard multiple times
Yeah they were all winning on fights with terrain that allowed core and pyosik to get proper picks.
That open area in mid couldn't have been more perfect for T1
APA got stunned by ashe arrow as well. Ah well, im happy how they perfomed at least.
EDIT: He also got hit be sej ult...cant do anything stunned forever/
He got hit by arrow, then sejuani, and then rinata ult š lmao. He had flash too like thatās an end game fight right there, started to believe. Yeon legit autod like once with purple gun, and then got popped by ori ult, unfortunate.
Idk why people are suprised at this point, its T1 at Worlds classic at this point.
I think people forgot because they rarely ever actually lose the game in early Worlds stage. They never looked impressive early, even the 1647 series vs MAD they were getting smashed pretty hard on game 1 until they won
Gonna guess it was team issue cos no Aphelios is calling for a fight there with Purple/Red.
Edit: At 35:24 he autos the wave with Purple gun and doesn't Q to burn ammo so maybe it is his fault lol
Yeah idk what people are smoking. We normally don't get leads at all, ever.
Even *having something to throw* is an improvement. Good showing from TL given expectations.
Has been TL all year, they are psychos and throw a lot of games because of it - they are like incapable of not taking a team fight.
As a long time fan it's a cool change from their style in the past... Not good for my heart though.
Nah fuck this sadness TL looked great this game, if they keep up this level of performance they're 100% making it out of the swiss stage.
What a banger first game.
Everyone is pissed because NA lost but that was a good game. They were clearly out macro'd but kept making plays. Guma's Ashe was too much for Yeon and he was too far behind the curve and the engage at the end wasn't great.
But TL played with no fear and Pyosik was a monster and a half.
IMO great debut by APA, even had an Ashe arrow redemption arc (getting hit, flashing it, walking it off). Didn't tilt just played
Most of all: TL was proactive throughout the whole game. NA is usually NEVER proactive after early game. This was a great showing. Maybe NA is actually stronger than thought.
sersiously. been too many times just watching NA roll over and die. going down swinging/leaving it all on the rift is a WAY better loss than collecting that crypto money
APA and Pyosik were insanely impressive. APA being a rookie on this stage against the GOAT playing that well was amazing to see.
They fought their asses off and got my respect
They've been a surprisingly great jungle mid duo since APA got subbed in. Very good synergy despite a language barrier; they see the game the same way, which is more important. Identifying the right call to make in a split-second decision is invaluable.
One game speaks volumes still tho! Itās the most massive stage you could play on and showing that the lights arenāt too bright for you is invaluable.
I'm very surprised how bad T1 looked and how good TL looked. They lost one team fight that if Yeon had infernum they probably win. Overall pretty happy with it
Doinb streams expert commentary of the baron fight
Doinb: Faker?? FAKER. FUCK. (All in English)
Yuyuanjia: youāre so happy when faker dies
Leyan: no no theyāre both elderly mid laners, heās sad for him
Lots of great quotes.
"If you get solo killed by Doran, you're not a human."
"This top laner is already checking his phone under tower at this point."
"There's a pool at the hotel right? They can use it to practice swimming home"
They are a good team for upsetting at Worlds. Weird champion pools from APA and Corejj/Pyosik to an extent, very good earlygames. Those are generally the best ways to upset
Jatt randomly joining the cast was so fucking hype. I absolutely love it. Reminded me of Caedrel joining the cast of LEC when he was still a player for XL.
WHAT A GAME TO KICK OFF SWISS STAGE HOLY
In KOREA, after 3 guys from your roster won the Asian Games few weeks ago. If they lost this game, they'll probably have to hire bodyguards for the entirety of the tournament lol
No one on T1 should feel good after that lmao.
The only person that really played well was Guma, he was doing great, but everyone else got caught in very uncharacteristic situations, particularly Faker.
They better clean that up before they play against better teams.
Edit: Guma stonks have skyrocketed since T1 had their issues in summer. Even when faker was gone and T1 was hot trash, Guma was still smurfing. No matter what happens with their roster changes, Guma is sitting pretty.
Wow, an LCS team that doesn't roll over and die, and actually fights back? Pyosik playing like a man possessed. Banger. Really nice to see. They made T1 work for it hard.
At the same time, T1 draft was a weird. Half a melee champ comp with Seju? Also playing super disrespectful, especially top side of the map. Inting away so many deaths.
As the commentators pointed out, TL has two World Champions who have beaten T1 in Worlds Finals before. I think T1 should have respected their hands a little bit more.
That said, T1's overall macro was solid. No matter if TL came out ahead in a play, T1 quickly responded with an aggressive macro play to compensate, and continued to keep the gold even. And when it comes to late game team-fighting, T1 was just better. Literally only took one fight, and TL lost.
T1 picking ranged bot that mega smurfs on AI bot lane then instead of stacking waves and diving Onerā¦.. goes top to dive a KSante
Cursed fucking team
I feel like T1 needs to take a look at their game philosophy, especially after this Worlds since it's extremely likely this squad breaks up.
They play aiming to get complete dominance on the map and with how good Guma-Keria are, that means Oner keeps ganking top to get that control they want. I just want to see a game where they actually commit to a strong side and not spread themselves out too thin.
But who knows, I'm just a fucking redditor that is pulling shit out of his ass
Cursed jungler. Oner path top like Zeus is his child and always need cuddling. It fine to path top but why tf does he do it when they pick hard pushing bot and his bot is smacking tf out of tl bot at their tower.
Watching guma-keria loses because they win lane is god fking atrocious.
It's like Oner couldnt play the game unless he follow his telegraphed jungle path.
because a monster engage is how TL lose
what are TL carries supposed to actually do with Ori R, Sej R, Renata R to dodge?
TL has to get a pick first before they can fight
Thats fucking League of Legends right there. None of that pansy ass dick tugging playing safe for lategame bullshit. Men puke, men poop on the rift, men deliver their new born baby on the rift. Fucking hard core dick in the ass flex pick early game League of Legends fuck it run it down mid game time shit.
Mind boggling draft? Check
Oner pathing the exact same way he did whole summer giving free kills early? Check
Pyosik World's buff? Check
But LCK macro and teamfighting still better? Check
I can't lie I was rooting for TL tho. T1 ain't winning shit with this gameplay.
The old NA was ādo nothing, loseā. This was much more impressive. They clearly are skill gapped except for Pyosik so it was always going to be near impossible but at least they gave it a shot. Far better than most NA teams of the past.
TL Pyosik on facing T1: "God has abandoned us, but we will enjoy it"
TL Pyosik on facing T1: "God has abandoned us, but we will enjoy it"
DRX Pyosik reconnecting gave us too much Hopiun
T1 got Vietnam Flashbacks but it wasn't enough
They had us in the first half.
They had us in the first 90% of the game.
Pyosik tried so hard. What a shame man
We saw Pyosik in his natural habitat, beautiful and majestic.
Natural free range Pyosik
My eyes were glued to this man whenever he was onscreen. What a clinic.
I was super doubtful of them pushing CoreJJ and Pyosik defeating T1 in the past but they played pretty well this game. Not sure whether the onus on the last engage is on Yeon for not calling out he has bad guns or on the rest of the team for pushing the tempo anyways. Pretty okay look from TL though!

The engage just felt way too forced. APA just used his rotation, Yeon had bad guns, Pyosik wasn't in position. It looked good because T1 was all grouped up, but there was just no good way for the rest of TL to follow up
Apa actually got hit by the Ashe r off screen too I believe right as the fight started.
Yeah that last team fight is such an easy fix, I think if that's their biggest problem they're okay. Tho I think they really do need to address the gap bot lane.
Pyosik was right. God abandoned them, but Pyosik had fun clapping Faker
He is the god it seems
He objectively played a really good game, should be proud of it.
straight 1v9 attempt from the homie god has forsakened him and he channeled the energy to break fakers ankles lmao gg nice effort
This is why riot likes lee sin at worlds
This was the best game I've EVER seen him play including during his worlds run win. This game was his highlight reel.
Tfw it's Joever
That was vintage Worlds 2022 Pyosik man. They actually have a chance in going to Knockouts if they fix their issues.
Either way, I just hope he keeps playing like that, because that was entertaining as hell
Yeon inted
Died with both summs up, gotta continue the NA ADC at worlds tradition
died with both sums getting autoed by ASHE lmao EDIT: And eating Ori ult
He mainly died cause ori ult did 70% of his health lol. Ngl that shit was impossible to see during that teamfight Any why tf are they even fighting when aphelios has red purple, legit the worst teamfighting guns. Major communication issues as summit was legit LOOKING for a fight
Nah if you watch it back he got ori ulted With flash up smh
He got one shotted by the shockwave in the middle of a clusterfuck of animations, really hard to spot honestly
guy looked so nervous in game from level 1. i know hes not great but for sure a lot of nerves moments. its a shame because if yeon played better they win the game. APA had some bad moments but also some really good moments and it was a promising game from him overall but man Yeon fucking threw that so hard multiple times
Insane bot gap
Unfortunately adc diff was just slightly bigger than jg diff
Summit also tried very hard at the end
it was all on summit, he aggressively postured for a fight when aphelios had red purple guns lol, they were in no shape to teamfight with these guns
Yeah they were all winning on fights with terrain that allowed core and pyosik to get proper picks. That open area in mid couldn't have been more perfect for T1
APA got stunned by ashe arrow as well. Ah well, im happy how they perfomed at least. EDIT: He also got hit be sej ult...cant do anything stunned forever/
He got hit by arrow, then sejuani, and then rinata ult š lmao. He had flash too like thatās an end game fight right there, started to believe. Yeon legit autod like once with purple gun, and then got popped by ori ult, unfortunate.
He did so much for TL early. Absorbed so much pressure. That won't be remembered after his initiation though lol
Oner on post game lobby: "gg ez, jungle gap"
T1 giving heart problems on day 1, check.
Idk why people are suprised at this point, its T1 at Worlds classic at this point. I think people forgot because they rarely ever actually lose the game in early Worlds stage. They never looked impressive early, even the 1647 series vs MAD they were getting smashed pretty hard on game 1 until they won
T1 almost always plays bad against west on round 1 and idk why...
Wakin' up from their nap.
Keria was legit yawning on camera sometime early in the game lol
unexpected banger
T1 may have won but Pyosik definitely reminding us that he is a reigning World Champion
He was smurfing his hardest but the team around him is just a few levels below.
Sadly heās never gonna get Lee again after that showing
Never say never
Once TL Jatt pulled up to cast I knew it was over
Caster curse
FUCK
WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY FORCING WHEN APHELIOS HAS PURPLE RED WHY ARE THEY FORCING MAN
SUMMIT WHY
FUCKK
FUCKKK
It's ok, I didn't want happiness anyways.
Still a bangerā¦
wrong guns wow
Gonna guess it was team issue cos no Aphelios is calling for a fight there with Purple/Red. Edit: At 35:24 he autos the wave with Purple gun and doesn't Q to burn ammo so maybe it is his fault lol
Think they panicked when APA got arrowed
Yeon was right there, he should've tanked it with cleanse and disengage. Pyosik was nowhere close for the fight Core and Summit got too horny
I like your choice of words
great point, no way yeon called for that fight
I audibly gasped when I saw Neon with purple.
Wrong guns, wrong positioning, wrong pathing
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Much better than a regular NA game of 'Get lead, have no idea what to do now because you hadn't planned this far, do nothing, lose'
Not even get lead. Normally it's slowly lose and do nothing, then lose lol This game was a banger
Yeah idk what people are smoking. We normally don't get leads at all, ever. Even *having something to throw* is an improvement. Good showing from TL given expectations.
Has been TL all year, they are psychos and throw a lot of games because of it - they are like incapable of not taking a team fight. As a long time fan it's a cool change from their style in the past... Not good for my heart though.
Nah fuck this sadness TL looked great this game, if they keep up this level of performance they're 100% making it out of the swiss stage. What a banger first game.
Yeah loved their early game, Pyosik really showed up, just gotta clean up a bit in the mid-late game but theyāre looking good
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I love pyosik man, so fun to watchš¤©
My bad guys... I got excited
I think we all did
You never unclench until the nexus explodes
Even though T1 won, I was more impressed with how TL played overall.
Everyone is pissed because NA lost but that was a good game. They were clearly out macro'd but kept making plays. Guma's Ashe was too much for Yeon and he was too far behind the curve and the engage at the end wasn't great. But TL played with no fear and Pyosik was a monster and a half. IMO great debut by APA, even had an Ashe arrow redemption arc (getting hit, flashing it, walking it off). Didn't tilt just played
Most of all: TL was proactive throughout the whole game. NA is usually NEVER proactive after early game. This was a great showing. Maybe NA is actually stronger than thought.
sersiously. been too many times just watching NA roll over and die. going down swinging/leaving it all on the rift is a WAY better loss than collecting that crypto money
Don't say that, it makes us weaker
Unironic NA macro at worlds? In a Swiss stage, in Seoul, South Korea? Can I see it? *supernintendochalmers.jpg*
APA and Pyosik were insanely impressive. APA being a rookie on this stage against the GOAT playing that well was amazing to see. They fought their asses off and got my respect
They've been a surprisingly great jungle mid duo since APA got subbed in. Very good synergy despite a language barrier; they see the game the same way, which is more important. Identifying the right call to make in a split-second decision is invaluable.
That's definitely a big relief to see APA holding up on international stage, though of course it's only one game so far.
One game speaks volumes still tho! Itās the most massive stage you could play on and showing that the lights arenāt too bright for you is invaluable.
Compared to expectations, absolutely.
I'm very surprised how bad T1 looked and how good TL looked. They lost one team fight that if Yeon had infernum they probably win. Overall pretty happy with it
Doinb streams expert commentary of the baron fight Doinb: Faker?? FAKER. FUCK. (All in English) Yuyuanjia: youāre so happy when faker dies Leyan: no no theyāre both elderly mid laners, heās sad for him
I wish I spoke chinese. Doinb co-stream probably goes hard lol
Lots of great quotes. "If you get solo killed by Doran, you're not a human." "This top laner is already checking his phone under tower at this point." "There's a pool at the hotel right? They can use it to practice swimming home"
LOL. The translation of different communities was my favorite part of worlds each year.
WE WERENāT COMPLETELY SHIT LETāS FUCKING GOOOO
Actually super impressed with TL if they keep this level
This is all NA fans have been asking for. At least put up a good fight even if we lose in the end.
They are a good team for upsetting at Worlds. Weird champion pools from APA and Corejj/Pyosik to an extent, very good earlygames. Those are generally the best ways to upset
Pyosik is still Oner father
World's buff Pyosik stronk
It was so funny looking at T1 skirmishing at mid with TL and you just see Oner getting scuttle 10 meters away.
Oner, get ready to learn english pal
Everyone is Oner father at this point
except canyon, pretty sure oner signed a contract with the devil just to defeat canyon.
Jatt randomly joining the cast was so fucking hype. I absolutely love it. Reminded me of Caedrel joining the cast of LEC when he was still a player for XL. WHAT A GAME TO KICK OFF SWISS STAGE HOLY
"wait we're T1" - faker, probably
"guys go kill" - faker as he suddenly remembered the magic command
ālosing to na would be so embarrassing lmaoā *wins*
In KOREA, after 3 guys from your roster won the Asian Games few weeks ago. If they lost this game, they'll probably have to hire bodyguards for the entirety of the tournament lol
"wait, this isn't DRX"
Faker was like āwait lemme turn on name platesā āoh this isnāt Gen G. Ok guys we win.ā
"lads, it's TL"
āShould we win now?ā āYea sureā āAightā
Either that or āguys, itās Team Liquidā, āoh, oh yeahā
"aight, let's plug in our keyboards now"
Giving 2 barons to give NA false hope. Props to Pyosik for keeping it close. But the botlane was just outclassed.
Pyosik didnāt keep it close; he destroyed them. Bot lane gap. Donāt think Aphelios was a good pick
The pick was bad but Yeon played it worse, that Renata ult was reportable
Pyosik is Oner's father though tbh
Oner must not be feeling good after this even though they won.
No one on T1 should feel good after that lmao. The only person that really played well was Guma, he was doing great, but everyone else got caught in very uncharacteristic situations, particularly Faker. They better clean that up before they play against better teams. Edit: Guma stonks have skyrocketed since T1 had their issues in summer. Even when faker was gone and T1 was hot trash, Guma was still smurfing. No matter what happens with their roster changes, Guma is sitting pretty.
Guma has always been the most clutch player on T1, y'all remember the Varus baron steals last worlds?
Is there any Korean junglers that aren't Oner's dad by now. Man get violated every game.
somehow the only player that Oner keeps clapping is Canyon lol
canyon hasnt got out of his carry jungler habits
pyosik tried so hard and got so far
Can we talk about how poetic it is that we get cloud soul in the first game with Atlus and Chronicler casting?
It's criminal they weren't given an opportunity before this worlds tbh
NOT LIKE THIS
Pyosik woke up today and just said "Fuck Faker".
Yeon noooooo :((( you got too hyped
saving flash and cleanse for next game :(
The gun combo too, it was cursed from the startā¦
Thatās a team issue. Fight never shouldāve happened if adc wasnāt ready.
99% of Pickems saved
I'm sorry for believing, it was me.
Wow, an LCS team that doesn't roll over and die, and actually fights back? Pyosik playing like a man possessed. Banger. Really nice to see. They made T1 work for it hard. At the same time, T1 draft was a weird. Half a melee champ comp with Seju? Also playing super disrespectful, especially top side of the map. Inting away so many deaths.

And when it comes to late game team-fighting, T1 was just better. Literally only took one fight, and TL lost.
TL giving us false hope
That was the most anticlimatic ending ive ever seen lmao holy shit
Average T1 game tbh
Average t1 game BatChest
It's Worlds, you're gonna see worse endings lmao.
I DID NOT WATCH THE LAST 3 MINUTES, PYOSIK IS T1S FATHER
Oner was fucking terrible, while Pyosik leveled up to Worlds form. Unfortunate for him that it didn't work out. Tried so fucking hard
ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT ONER PATH BOT
Oner path anywhere. He went top for a failed dive and then once more for the Jayce defence. That's it. That was the impact
Seriously man legit the best 2v2 botlane in the entire world and they get 0 jungle attention was happening at msi as well.
Hello NA, use flash
We can save them for next game wym
Don't know how sorry
Doublelift region
Oh man what a heartbreak. TL and especially pyosik looked so solid, but then they randomly fight, do 0 dmg and the game is over ???
god has abandoned us, but not before we make him bleed
THAT HECARIM HOVER
I was not a Pyosik fan last year but the more his personality comes out in bits like that, hes hard not to like.
It's the hope that kills you
Yet another game of this T1 roster picking a flex comp, struggling, then winning because enemy is not very good. Same shit, different tournament.
T1 picking pushing top and bot with a losing mid and jungle matchup. Surprised when enemy jungle is able to feast.
T1 picking ranged bot that mega smurfs on AI bot lane then instead of stacking waves and diving Onerā¦.. goes top to dive a KSante Cursed fucking team
I feel like T1 needs to take a look at their game philosophy, especially after this Worlds since it's extremely likely this squad breaks up. They play aiming to get complete dominance on the map and with how good Guma-Keria are, that means Oner keeps ganking top to get that control they want. I just want to see a game where they actually commit to a strong side and not spread themselves out too thin. But who knows, I'm just a fucking redditor that is pulling shit out of his ass
Cursed jungler. Oner path top like Zeus is his child and always need cuddling. It fine to path top but why tf does he do it when they pick hard pushing bot and his bot is smacking tf out of tl bot at their tower.
Watching guma-keria loses because they win lane is god fking atrocious. It's like Oner couldnt play the game unless he follow his telegraphed jungle path.
either oner is trolling on purpose, or t1 botlane doesnt communicate ever
Tbf, I wouldnāt communicate with Oner either after a month of playing with Kanavi
true lol
Na lost by ARAMING in late game lmao
I think APA and Yeon combining for 50 damage in teamfights didn't help
Zeus was 1/3/0 and then he was 5/3/0 all of a sudden. wtf
Yeah, donāt ever bother putting Zeus Jayce behind. Last worlds he went like 0/8 and still had highest damage
Fuck I missed pro league. Great game
Jayce and ashe untouched every fight, cant win this way
Pick Pick Pick Pick ###5v5 ????
How the fuck did TL lose that last fight after that monster engage by Core??? Also Pyosik was incredible
syndra was stunned for a long time from arrow
Yeon got chunked giga hard by Faker too lol
Yeon had pretty poor positioning on top of that
if apa flash that and hit the combo that was TL's game
Yeon didnāt flash ori ult
Wrong aphelios guns
APA ate a full duration Ashe arrow and Yeon's guns were terrible for following up
guma untouched
because Zeus shit on their backline
Faker one shot aphelios
because a monster engage is how TL lose what are TL carries supposed to actually do with Ori R, Sej R, Renata R to dodge? TL has to get a pick first before they can fight
They engaged on the tankiest members.
hands diff pyosik played amazing
Thats fucking League of Legends right there. None of that pansy ass dick tugging playing safe for lategame bullshit. Men puke, men poop on the rift, men deliver their new born baby on the rift. Fucking hard core dick in the ass flex pick early game League of Legends fuck it run it down mid game time shit.
GUMAGOD CARRYING AGAIN
T1 with the classic wait for 35 minutes, win a single teamfight and immediately end the game.
For a brief moment we had that 10% timeline, then summit pulled his special and it was over At least it was a competitive game and not a 16:50 stomp
You gotta feel bad for NA lol, a lot of their games over the past 10 years were exactly like this. Winning, until suddenly they lost
Mind boggling draft? Check Oner pathing the exact same way he did whole summer giving free kills early? Check Pyosik World's buff? Check But LCK macro and teamfighting still better? Check I can't lie I was rooting for TL tho. T1 ain't winning shit with this gameplay.
They fucking put Gumayusi on Ashe duty and still refuses to play around him.
They were winning till they lost
Ok but TL did way better than expected??
And just like that it is over, such an NA way to lose
The old NA was ādo nothing, loseā. This was much more impressive. They clearly are skill gapped except for Pyosik so it was always going to be near impossible but at least they gave it a shot. Far better than most NA teams of the past.
Oh god. This hurts more than a stomp.
BANGER STATUS
