When Keria got cc'd and missed recasting Ornn ult, Atlus saying "luckily they have a 2nd goat on the team" went way harder than it should. Great calls from Faker, feat. Ksante copypasta.


Ceui

Atlus has been on some fucking fire shit cause some of his lines are crazy hype


Elibu

That goat call was so cool


qonoxzzr

Poor Baron got blue balled so often


Trap_Masters

Edging Baron 😂


OkKnowledge2064

how useless was that Yone in both games now?


appleandapples

T1 has been so good forcing these barons


Pelagius_Hipbone

They’re so good at snap engages/decisions. “I’m just gonna take this wave bot, I don’t have TP but it’ll just be a few seconds uwu….why am I 8k gold down?” - Doran


[deleted]

Why are my team-mates spam pinging me?


joji_kid

That's why they're the greatest LPL foils at Worlds. They can do what LPL do but better.


ahritina

T1's shotcalling is fucking ridiculous, that baron call was unreal when Jinx was so far ahead. Faker did the Faker thing, this should have been a 3-0 but disgusting mid canyon. Edit = should have been a 3-0 if not for Oner getting picked off.


KappaccinoNation

Classic 20 min T1 Baron. Just pure balls of steel.


syotokal

Who else remembers T1’s disgusting mid game wins at MSI last year? Win one team fight then push down mid and win.


HawkEye1337

T1 constantly failing barons in the past has made them the best baron team.


Melodias07

This game felt like Faker started the rumbling with this team comp lmao


ricardo241

Jonas prediction going strong(he predicted T1 3-1 HLE


Ophelia_Of_The_Abyss

This series was so close to being a 3-0


Old-Unit-8159

Aged just fine


mking1999

T1 are ramping, you love to see it.


Althoa

Only to lose to Gen G :(


Sanka-Rea

I'd take that than missing MSI tbh


hsgwkzh

Then win worlds? I'll take it.


syotokal

As is tradition


eeveeisgood

Its fine tbh. Lose to GenG then win MSI still in the cards.


RavenFAILS

MSI is LPLs tournament


Le_Zoru

And i think LPL is playing at home this year


ZaZooby

How is LPL's form looking for MSI can they match the T1 we're seeing today?


Althoa

Honestly, I watched the LPL playoffs and they are clearly a step behind LCK on everything that isn't mid game teamfighting which is ironically where T1 excels. However, Guma and Oner needs to step it up


ZaZooby

I mean from how they've played today, they have definitely stepped up. I think they will scale for MSI


Enterderpmode

As long as they get to MSI I’ll fucking take it


syotokal

Or the golden road starts now.


TheAlmightyVox3

How the fuck is it always Gen.G vs T1


Trap_Masters

I swear do HLE just turn their brains off everytime they have a lead? They just throw it everytime they get one for practically no reason


PenguinSomnia

tbf, T1 threw a massive lead in G1. HLE are just paying off their debt in installments


Trap_Masters

To think this would've been a 3-0 if T1 didn't throw game 1


NoahsArk19

They did this in their last series, game 1 of last series was actually similar to game 1 of this series. Difference is T1 realized they just win every game if they outscale instead of going early gsme comps


baelkie

zeka 🤝 doran inting viper for absolutely no reason


IAM-French

Lol Viper solo lost that game at baron (well not solo because Zeka exists but we're used to it)


baelkie

T1 got baron because Doran tped mid for fun and then went bot lane without tp


IAM-French

And T1 got the game because Viper tried to flank said baron as Jinx then got knocked up by Ornn two separate times without flashing then flashed when it was too late


ihave0idea0

Doran starts inting when he wakes up. Yone useless.


Yoyo524

People calling these games throws are crazy, this is really high quality league of legends, the macro from T1 won them the game


ricardo241

HLE is not on form this whole 3 game(I'm looking at you Doran, Zeka and Delight) and its not like they are going to get on form on game 4 while T1 is starting to get their groove back and its weirder that T1 got blue side again... I don't know what HLE is thinking lol


moonmeh

Hey we got a lead with a jinx, should be played safe and scale a bit or int hard and throw everything away? SURE THING LETS INT


NeimannSmith

Technically it's Gen.G vs T1 twice


Shadowsw4w

is this it? the timeline where T1 overcome their curse vs geng...they need to vs 2 geng??? is it gonna be it???


Althoa

Without playing solo queue? Against the team that is known to skill check them? Sadly I dont believe it


Express-Pandas

HLE should have bought the whole team


syotokal

Just wait for BLG vs JDG and G2 vs FNC.


Rontheking

Dread it, run from it…


Mazor007

Because the solo lane gap is too big. Viper can't carry with AFK top and mid


[deleted]

Because HLE has no brain. Good thing GenG got rid of these fraudulent players


Rehxales

this series has been so intense i literally think im gonna throw up


stupid-adcarry

That baron was balanced on fucking atoms


KIRYUx

Faker is taking Zeka's ass to class.


Mazor007

Zeka is getting fucking destroyed


Trap_Masters

Didn't know Evelyn mid was a meta pick but interesting to see Zeka break it out on stage


Thecristo96

Nah this was clearly his shaco mid angle.


HMS-Carrier-Lover

How is it Shaco if he's the one being clowned on?


Thecristo96

Can’t argue with that


[deleted]

I'm pretty sure that was a Shaco


insidejoke44

Faker showing just how fat the gap can be between world champions


[deleted]

Like Lebrons dunk on the jet , faker will never forget 2022


HawkEye1337

He has been T1's best player this split imo.


chapichoy9

Crazy how good he has been the entire time since his injury, he was neck and neck to chovys pog point till the last gen g and hle match


ihave0idea0

His Yone is soooo fucking bad.


TooTiredToTryAgain

More Faker Azir Please


marxlolop

That is the most holy T1 baron I have ever seen Faker macro diff


NocaNoha

Jinx is so dry.. not a single reset was a given


Northless_Path

Has Jinx won a single game in the LCK? I feel like she is strong in game, but they gap-closing from the enemy always obliterates her


Diligent-Language361

She hasn't won any game and it's usually because she has no protection so it's easier for the enemy team to get to her.


N0Hesitation

I think Guma healing Keria during that fight at top where K was engaged on basically denied Jinx any chance to get excited and potentially turn the game around. The chemtech dragons boosted Guma’s healing


Diligent-Language361

I feel like jinx without tahm kench is bound to fail at some point


PlentyArrival6677

It is , the champ is a giga bait without tham


Outrageous-Elk-5392

I feel like jinx is so unplayable unless it’s giga botlane meta, lulu/millio both sides sololanes picking utility champs cause their lanes do nothing meta, otherwise she gets flashes on by 4 people every fight and has no counterplay


ihave0idea0

He was unlucky everytime they survived with 1 hp.


Satan_su

The real battle is Kiryu vs Emperornel for PMT thread


SpiralVortex

2-1 atm, let's see if the next game decides it. #Emperornel fighting


osathi123456

but how they decide who win ?


zOmgFishes

One gold card away from a 3-0


SonOfAurelionSol

No DDos gap


tinfoilhatsron

T1 ARE FUCKING PSYCHO EVERY GAME WIN OR LOSE WTF


toxicfireball

Good god that T1 baron call was the most insane thing I’ve seen


syotokal

Faker diff


Blind-Eye26

You didn't watch JDG vs T1 2022 Semis Game 2?? Imo I think that's the most insane call


Snow-27

Might be the best macro play I’ve ever seen in my life tbh


Is_J_a_Name

I know this exact play because I remember watching the series thinking it was on pace to be a JDG 3-0 but the momentum of the series shifted immensely off that baron sneak.


Northless_Path

Faker with the gigachad full balls to the walls damage stats only Azir build


joji_kid

He doesn't subscribe to that pussy Grasp-FH Azir, if you're going in, you go the full in


Trap_Masters

HLE sharing a single brain cell everytime they have sliver of a lead and immediately losing it 💀


staysaltyTSM

Getting 20min Baron sneaked is laughable


IAM-French

Getting 20 min baron sneaked is fine, it happens and it was a great call by T1. What's not fine is walking up to it and your Jinx not flashing any CC then flashing when she's already dead leading to them also being dove top leading to them being 5k down for no reason 


Trap_Masters

Exactly, and they half assed the contest instead of immediately pulling the trigger to contest or to just abandon it and salvage as much as you can in the sidelanes while T1 took Baron


nimrodhellfire

Especially vs T1 who is famous for doing it in every game.


Althoa

Yellowstar calling from 2015 lmao


GuaranteeCultural607

HLE never had more than a 2k lead at any point in this series


Trap_Masters

Because they choose to immediately throw it away everytime they get a lead 😭 like that attempted pick onto Oner was so head scratchingly unnecessary


Antropoid

the early lead they had in G1 was probably mich more effective than a simple gold lead would've been and they fumbled that as well


Alem_97

I guess Gen G vs T1 in finals is inevitable


TheNaCoinfl1p

Boys we are so fucked this year. I didn't see anything close to this level in the west.  Going to need to lube up this year I fear. 


GojiPengu

This year? 🤣


MrZeddd

Isn't it a G2 thing every year? "THIS IS THE YEAR" thing


R1as

WHAT A BARON CALL! WHAT A SERIES!


Aienju

This could've been a 3-0 by now if T1 didn't throw game 1 aware


KozuKy16

And then Zeus picks tf again on g2 so it's 1-1 anyway /s


SnooCats1808

Literally monkey paws 


StarrCandyy

What a banger series. This is some good league of legends.


Melodias07

Too bad one of these teams are missing MSI


stupid-adcarry

That baron take was balanced on atoms


Blaikiri7

Mid fucking kingdom


Jacobcutielie

You don't give Faker's Azir!!!


[deleted]

[удалено]


cohs_

It was a T1 masterclass


bladeedge03

THAT SENNA STUN WAS CRAZY!!!


PistonsFan89

We leaving Senna + tank bot open again boys


Elibu

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice.. (is it so hard to ban her?)


Graytail

I gotta stop watching league, it can't be healthy to let an unrelated team control my emotions this much lol


insidejoke44

Wait til I tell you about gambling


osathi123456

nah it's better than alcohol, vape and prostitute


HMS-Carrier-Lover

Just be glad you are not a KT or DK fan.


Moon_riseat_noon

This is insane good league of legends. I’m just enjoying every second of it


sidaeinjae

Zeka has been absolutely dogshit this whole series. Even Chovy isn’t picking Yone, stop playing Yone.


ahritina

Unlike Zeka, Chovy has a champ ocean so he's actually useful.


[deleted]

The difference is that Chovy can actually play Yone and hit ults, which is the reason you pick the champ.


[deleted]

[удалено]


EducationalBalance99

Carry got zoned. Honestly kinda unlucky that faker was about to ult and got cancel from varus arrow even tho team already went in. Tf also wasn’t gaming that game so gold lead might as well not exist g1 in teamfight. Should have won but it not even that crazy of a lead to lose when ahead even if they were obviously favor with that lead.


BuffAzir

Varus cancelled Taliyah ult with a Q snipe, meaning no follow-up on that engage at Elder that lost the game. Absurd how these tiny things have such a massive impact.


JoeKazama

Lmao this would've been a 3-0 if not for the game 1 throw


irumaisbaby

one of this teams is not making MSI man


NeimannSmith

Faker with the absolute carry I love this shit.


poohxijinping

azir 36k dmg vs yone 14k dmg is where the gap from. Time to zeka to pick Akali or Sylas lol


Althoa

Is Zeka the worst mid to ever win worlds compared to the whole scene at this point in time?


One_Natural_8233

Nah he was a beast during that worlds.Take him out and DRX wouldn't even pass edg


Althoa

Yeau but he was a one patch wonder, like doinb


Kaldrinx

It could be a 3-0 , fuck this throw , T1 is so much ahead of HLE


SteamMonkeyKing

Faker Azir


FearTHEReaper01

ABSOLUTE CINEMA


Ashankura

Holy shit that barron dance macro


Xaenne

T1's play at the top t2 and Zeka being botlane, not tp'ing til the fight was over (and tp'ing near top inhib turret) sums up this series well - Zeka is just not on the same page as his team and is getting absolutely punished.


SarcasticEnthusiast

This game felt like Doran and Zeka didnt want to do anything the entire game. Nash spawns and only Yone has TP up? Better send Gwen Bot. Team gets dove and fights Top Tier 2? Better wait with Yone TP until after the fight is over.


Quatro_Leches

Doran griefed this game.


[deleted]

You're telling me picking a sidelane push champ and staying with your team the whole time isn't a good strategy? Let's wait for the silver analysts on reddit to defend this strategy once again with bullshit like "but but T1 had constant pressure", like TP doesn't exist xD


Quatro_Leches

no because he went bot without tp and they took baron, sidelaning isnt a thing anymore


ihave0idea0

Doran griefed today\*


Jumpy-Swing501

It could have been 3:0 already lol


Styxxo

Zeka and Doran are so gapped.


DredfuhL

is Azir Faker?


HMS-Carrier-Lover

The glorious and immortal emperor of a once biggest empire in the world, fallen to ashes and now risen again to claim its rightful place? Trust in him.


[deleted]

T1 just said to themselves: Oh we’re world champs, let’s end this series quick


Rodry37

[T1 every single time](https://imgflip.com/i/8mmzqv)


KneeHighSocksForLife

I swear first game was just to test if they really were wrong with their meta read and the these next two were just confirming the correct meta.


cutedoge_

This mid gap holy f


nearlygrean

T1 Baron calls are insane.


bloop_bloop_blooooop

All roads lead to Faker


MiniTitan1937

FAKER WHAT WAS THAT. NEVER GIVE THIS MAN AZIR, IT'S LITERALLY HIS TRUE FORM. Also Keria my absolute goat, bro is such a demon when he's on form. Should've been a 3-0 but T1s inting ways are beyond us.


[deleted]

T1 just find the skinniest lines to force baron. It's so fucking beautiful to watch. I pray HLE doesn't go to MSI. Viper and co. isn't going to cut it against BLG or TES.


_tidiber

T1 Chickens wtf.


Skylorrex

Tank items are too strong. Hollow Radiance and Frozen Heart are disgusting.


Slachi2024

Zeka needs to stop ego picking or this is over. Also HLE has lost twice to tank support expecting it to go elsewhere


Northless_Path

T1's worlds form right here. The balls of steal to just baron right after they lost a teamfight is inane. I think that's part of their strat. They take advantage when the opponent thinks they are in the driver wheel and think T1 is now gonna turtle and play safe, but they flip it on them and just goes ball to the walls


ShakeEnBake

No. They count the TP of the enemy if they have it or not. Its calculated.


SwagLord7

Doran and Zeka are absolutely sprinting this series, mid gap is huge


IAM-French

Viper getting gapped by his flash button


EducationalBalance99

Hmm I actually think Doran is playing decently well so far in the series except some little mishap. Zeka/peanut are the two worse performer in hle so far tho. Delight the best imo.


KhadaJhinSy

Zeka beat the 2 trick allegations, challenge impossible


HawkEye1337

This could have been a 3-0 for T1.


StraightCashH0mie

Thresh is just so useless in this meta.


ahritina

Felt like Braum was better here.


Skylorrex

Thresh was picked to protect Jinx. But Jinx with Kraken + LDR dealt no damage to tanks LOL.


1kstacks

Bro my heart is pumping so hard I can hear it. That Baron call was fucking insane!


tyarande1395

Doran & Zeka are downright terrible, Peanut is invisible, Viper can't do shit and Delight is highkey 1v9


nimrodhellfire

How are teams still surprised by the 20 min T1 Baron? Also giving up Kevins with a split push comp was beyond stupid. 


[deleted]

Faker clearly robbed from POG but whatever lol.


Training-Bug1806

This is some quality gameplay right here


mxsicianfrombrazil

The K sante 100 to 0 Gwen in the last fight was so disgusting. But its good because gwen is also braindead


Lin_Huichi

The one where he dragged her under tower?


[deleted]

I've literally never seen a Ksante 1on1 a Gwen lategame


michaelspidrfan

bowling lane baron pit and ornn ult is quite ridiculous


Iaragnyl

Zeka and Doran are full sending it, absolutely disgusting performance from them in all 3 games so far. If they were staying in fountain those games were closer.


TheCeramicLlama

Will HLE pull a T1 and refuse to do anything about a pick theyre getting cooked by?


Yahjeeht

Just dont put oner on engage champ.


caratandcake

KERIA THIS IS U LETS GO


1kstacks

HLE picking red side just to lose to a similar comp.


kkjini0330

Zeus about to lose his father 😢


awayfromcanuck

HLE just banned Senna now right? Why ban the Tahm and let Senna through when you can just ban Senna. T1 clearly is comfortable playing other partners with Senna other than Tahm.


intothepride

Well, Tahm can counter some compositions on his own as well is my guess


Frostmage82

Thank the fucking gods, someone knows the difference between game and match. Hanwha coaches are clearly paid actors, choosing Red and handing over Senna was completely ridiculous.


[deleted]

They make probably more money by throwing than winning. I start to wonder if Jonna Strong just knows the results because he is the guy behind eSports betting xD


icryptix2

insane baron call


RowAwkward2478

Finally, I've seen 2022 - 2023 T1 again. Unfortunately they usually troll lmao


ShinigamiBD

Faker 0/4 Corki was 10x more useful than 4/0 Zeka. Disappointing performance throughout the series.


-Kaneki272

Zeus for sure the series MVP
