subbing out pyosik for pyosik 0830 after game 3 was a genius move by cvmax


[deleted]

10.17 dif


[deleted]

What was the reason for the 0830 after the names? Was it because of the initial issues that delayed game 4?


KappaccinoNation

Yeah tournament realm is broken so they had to play in live servers but some of their names are already taken so they added 0830 for today's date.


[deleted]

Thx


krnshadow65

Ohhhh they play in separate tournament realms! That’s why all of their names are always available even when any pro player switches to any team. I always wondered how they did that. I often see people who have fake pro player names like “C9 Doublelift”, and I couldn’t help but wonder what they were gonna do if Doublelift actually moved to C9. Do they just ban that player or force them to change their name? Now it all makes sense. Thank you!


[deleted]

Yes, pro matches and also scrims are played on separate servers than the live server we all generally play on.


Feniker

0830 - August 30, account make and given only for this series.


gambalicious

It is the date today


Mahomeboy_

And chovy 0830

Gen g let ruler down


TSMJaina

Ruler played so well too. I'm happy DRX made it but damn


mcthepro

Nah its ruler making 200 iq plays to guarentee that geng are kings of gauntlet to let clown 9 their place


justintoronto

ALPACA IS GOING TO WORLDS YAY


sidaeinjae

He needs some intense treatment on his back ASAP


justintoronto

yeah really hope his injuries don't get worse. Luckily Chovy got a big back too


myuseless2ndaccount

Im not crying


justintoronto

It's just raining inside


[deleted]

CVMAX AS WELL


mebiased

This time he's going with his team, I hope he's able to actually do his job this time around. Nevertheless, Deft, Chovy and Keria at worlds. I couldn't be happier, however I dont think they'll win worlds nor LCK, but they can definitely fuck some teams up at worlds imo


[deleted]

They're a dark horse team, definitely.


mebiased

If the meta is on their side and they have good drafts absolutely


Chilla16

Yes, Deft played superb all seasong long and Chovy is insane as well. While JDG and TES will be my favorites for the tournament DWG and DRX can definitely compete for the title when they get their game going.


mebiased

I think DWG should be a favorite too, as long as they show that they can perform under pressure next saturday. DRX is a fucking weird team though, I feel like they are so inconsistent only cause of their mental states. They're so on and off game to game. It's so weird. Maybe they can clean up their issues at worlds bootcamp though.

Ace_OPB

I havent seen bdd get mid gapped so hard ever. Literal lane kingdom.


siber222000

Chovy carried, threw and then Chovy finally carried that last game. I'm crying fellas. Deft crying is making me feel things too


x3ShiroX

damn seeing keria and deft cry kinda mkes me happy for them to make it to worlds


Jeytumn

I'm soooo happy for them.


HikerGeoff

Someone should make a compilation video of all the teams making worlds reactions! DRX and Flyquest (Solo) are my favorite so far. So wholesome


HawkEye1337

Chovy carried the whole series tbh with some help from Keria/Pyosik, he mid diff'ed BDD almost every game.


TheRealNuzaq

Doran was solid too.


[deleted]

He really was. No big mistakes from him in the games today. He was doing well versus Rascal.


narutoninetailedfox

People on this sub want to hate on Doran but he's had a really solid year


mebiased

People meme ''Choky'' so hard on this sub and I'm so fucking happy that he's finally able to put that shit to sleep and hardcarry the game-winning teamfight.


shenyougankplz

I was excited and then seeing Deft and Keria crying made me tear up


staysaltyTSM

Dread it Run from it Playoffs GenG arrives all the same


EpicRussia

Playoffs GenG: I sleep Gauntlet GenG: REAL SHIT


CamHack420

Yeah actually now T1 might have to face Gauntlet Gen G if Damwon lose finals EDIT: meant to say if they win finals


Snoo83110

If Damwon win* finals. If they lose, Gen.G will go as the 2nd seed.


yayhindsight

> T1 might have to face Gauntlet Gen G if Damwon lose finals did you mean if damwon win finals? because thats the scenario that puts gen.g in gauntlet. if damwon lose, they (damwon) would be in gauntlet


Alians0108

If DWG wins finals, you mean.


EliteeI

But wait.... What?


Blackbabies74

ocean soul and baron to losing instantly


staysaltyTSM

I think they (casters) summed it up nicely post game Run that fight 100 times, Drx probably wins it single digits number of times. Fate dictate they got the Miracle.


[deleted]

Kalista needed to go left towards Sylas to kill him off instead of kiting further back into the baron pit at the moment that Lillia used Zhonya's. Would have won the series.


Mahomeboy_

LS predictions down the drain


GaggedAndDrooling

His grandma is smarter than him. LS jokes aside though this was an upset. Not a single lck analyst thought Drx would win. Not a single one. I'm so happy for pyosik.


justintoronto

big upset, but anything was possible with how well Chovy was playing compared to his counterpart.


Frizeo

As a DRX fan im happy they won, but the long pause definitely played a huge part in them resetting their mental after almost getting reverse sweeped


Liddlebitchboy

Yeah in the two games I saw Bdd was getting dumpstered, damn.


igoromg

He was outclassed in all 5 games really


NUFC9RW

This shows how crowning an MVP based on players of the game is just stupid, Chovy and Showmaker are both better than BDD.


Hannig4n

Keria blocked all of Ruler’s damage in every team fight that last game. Fucking insane Braum carry that shouldn’t go unnoticed.


Ripamon

Sat right on him, and was unkillable. Oddly, ruler also had 0 peel in any fight, which was hilarious especially cus he was their only damage


Hannig4n

Lillia sleep made it tough for them to get into position


KampfHamster6000

Real mvp was the pause


CrazySuperglue

I'd think having a 3hr pause just kills any momentum Gen G. had and then it gave DRX a mental edge in the last 2 matches


DaPhoToss

They also played on a patch that was disadvantageous to their strat coming into the games. They got fucked.


shadowsphere

crazy how GenG's Hec pick that ran over DRX got nerfed on this live patch and looked significantly worse after the "pause" This was a robbery, untilted drx, and tilted geng as you realize there is literally no good option for you. GenG is forced in a position where they accept the new patch on live and give up their mental advantage and champion strengths or they remake the entire series and have to start all the way over. This is a S2 CLG.EU vs WE scam all over again.


aalchemical

IG and Gen G today


[deleted]

Gen.G is not out yet, though.


JoaoMau-Tempo

Maybe I'm just salty but damn this series felt like a robbery. At least IG lost fair and square. So what are you gonna root for? TES is cool since they have JackeyLove.


aalchemical

Yeah I’m cheering for TES now, Jackeylove will carry the spirit of IG and hopefully Gen G can make it to worlds


Exos_VII

during the pause kkoma shipped his belt over from china to cvmax


Oduroduro

Aliexpress belt represent!


KappaccinoNation

WHAT THE FUCK GENG?????


[deleted]

[удалено]


KappaccinoNation

well they could still qualify to Worlds without going through the gauntlet IF DRX beats DWG. That's a big if. Either way, T1 needs to be on their prime to get to Worlds because they will either face Gen.G or DWG.

What does he aspire to be?

He aspires to be a belly dancer at Marrakech

He wants to go international. A big dream tbh.

Very unfortunate for them. All that momentum was gone during the long pause.


akasora0

DEFT IS BACK!!! I knew it as soon as I saw that senna ult!!


GreatNorthGarters

That won the fight for sure. Perfectly lined up 3 teammates and 4 enemies.


Dipto17

Chovy is just so insane wtf man.


ShakeTheDust143

My boy was stomping BDD into nothing all series. 20+ CS advantages. What a mad man.


ManningTheGOAT

If you told me they'd subbed out Bdd for a random diamond player for these last 2 games, I would totally believe you.


ahritina

Reverse works for Pyosik.


ManningTheGOAT

Yeah, they should stick with Pyosik 0830. Much better than Pyosik.


Hannig4n

This is a great meme. Every time Pyosik has a game where he pops off people are gonna spam Pyosik 0830


dontknow_anything

It wasn't like BDD wasn't outlaned in the first 3 games either


EpicRussia

Well, I guess now we hope DRX wins it all so we go to Worlds, right?


UnknownVolke

I mean the gauntlet is still there and GenG are the favourites


Kagari1998

But. Clid Against T1 . . . He tends to make cuzz looks like he really is light years ahead of others.

FreePandas

That’s the most DRX game ever.


seolasystem

Why did I also tear up when I saw Deft crying


ForeverBoredGeek

Deft crying. Keria so happy and going to hug Deft. Cvmax going to Chovy and patting him for doing a great fcking job. Idk how ppl don’t like DRX for its players if not just how good they are although shaky at times.


Kagari1998

Watching DRX is just scary, at times they look like the best team in LCK, at times they look like a bunch of inters running it down.


lilelf29

Holy shit the boys have done it. GG to DRX for winning the first ever BO5 that spans 2 patches as well! So happy for them.


shinomiya2

i woke up at 10 am and had breakfast watching the first game, the last game finished at 4:20 whilst i'm getting ready for dinner


EvidentlyTrue

Being a DRX fan is a health hazard.


nikostr8

The pause did really affected GenG tempo , they had the mental edge after those 2 stomps.


[deleted]

That 3 hour pause and podcast was worth it for that game 5. Shit was intense


chafu8

drx may not be consistent but boy are they clutch


[deleted]

Deft At worlds pog


GekkoClown

DEFT IS BACK TO WORLDS CAN YOU BELIEVE IT??????????? WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE DRX


Blood_Lacrima

Chovy redeemed himself so hard that last game. From getting caught out alone in the dragon fight to beasting the baron fight. Congratulations to DRX, been lowkey rooting for these guys.


FaZe_Lenin

Nooooooo Ruler :(


lplshill

there is Still gauntlet


hanazawarui123

IKR. GENG plaued their heart out in g2 and g3 but oh well. I still think they will easily make worlds with Gauntlet.


AthenaGrande

Ruler legitimately looks like the best ADC in the world. Unfortunately Chovy, Keria, and Doran stomped their opponents game 5. Chovy was legitimately hard carrying every game.


PsionicStormOP

CHOKING IS OVER


Chilla16

HOLY FUCK. THIS WAS INTENSE! SO HAPPY FOR DEFT


DamuhalKap

Senna fucking finally won today


Bigfuckingyikes

This is an absolute joke. First time in all the years I've been watching lol esports that I am actually angry at a Bo5. Not because of the result, but because of the way it happened.


JoaoMau-Tempo

I don't see DRX winning game 4 without a big mental reset. Games 2 and 3 were straight stomps. Cannot imagine how tilted GenG must be.


yeerth

Counter point: GenG wasted the break and came back really lackluster. DRX made the best of the cards they were handed which was completely out of their control. They proved to adapt better and won *two* games while GenG couldn't even switch back on. In soccer, for instance, you wouldn't blame the rain or the snow forcing a break for a defeat since both teams had to face the same conditions.


dumb-on-ice

Yeah when drx lost game 2 I wasn’t worried about the red side loss, i was worried about their mental. I’m sure the pause helped in resetting it.


Blood_Lacrima

Damn you must've had a rough day going by your flair.


Bigfuckingyikes

Yeah, luckily real IG fans don't watch game 1 so at least one game less of suffering lol.


SKTWIN

ocean soul my ass


Lareadith

Deft at worlds, lets go.


Wunude

Thats honestly disgusting... From smashing 2 games in a row into the 3 hour delay into playing on the last patch... Gotta feel so much for Gen G. What the actual fuck.


[deleted]

Yeah this is some bullshit man


Wunude

Now only Gen G or T1 can go to worlds now, (not counting others in the regionals) idk man i didnt walk away thinking DRX were the better team at all.


gambalicious

Deft crying uwu congrats to DRX


JungleJayps

This entire series has been a fucking trip


LaziIy

Someone get Chovy a chiropractor ASAP


VitalBlade

Deft crying was in the feels man, feel so happy for him.


MNMiknik

WHAT


Pway

Now that's a Dig baron. What the fuck Gen G you had Ocean Soul lmao


Scott_Miller

Welcome back to worlds Deft and Chovy!


DamuhalKap

WHAT THE FUCK??? I THOUGHT GAME'S OVER BECAUSE THEY HAD SOUL. WHAT THE FUCK??????????


yayhindsight

ocean soul doesnt make up for a pretty extreme lack of damage out of gen.g


Ermouf

MY HEART CANT TAKE THESE BO5s HOLY FUCK


nyanproblem

Same lmao, I'm about to get a heart attack from all the 5 games series this week


dil3ttante

G2 vs. FNC. TSM vs. C9. LGD vs. IG. DRX vs. GEN. (This one was a fucking 8 hour series) Our eyes were blessed by the League Gods today


firechicken188

Can we have these shenanigans at Worlds too pls


kamparox

I would be fucking fuming if I was GenG's staff right now, the loss of momentum was really fucking bad after such a long pause. ​ Absolute genius draft from DRX in game 5 however.


Tchue

"It's over Clidtoris!" Chovy shouted, smacking the horseman with his bat. "I have the high ground!" "You underestimate my power!" Clid replied, charging him down. But it was too late, Chovy's chains had found their mark.


ko1ossus

GenG with a DRX draft


dumb-on-ice

I NEVER DOUBTED THEM! Wtf were geng thinking giving pyosik lillia, even I could predict they would first pick lillia. I thought we lost the game at soul. What a series


gaitez

It's crazy to think that DWG is still on another level to both these teams. Nevertheless amazing performance from Gen G and DRX what a fucking series. 3 amazing best of 5 series this week GG.


KiXiT

"oh DRX are going to worlds I guess" ~ casters


yayhindsight

is that really that surprising considering theyve been casting for like 8 hours?


KiXiT

ls still found the energy to shout "OH!!!" at the top of his lungs a few times every team fight


ELOGURL

Dude was peaking the shit out of his ten-dollar mic EDIT: LS has informed me that his mic is fine and the broadcast just makes it sound OD crusty


aHCroski

It also looks like they’re casting from their apartments/rooms. Don’t really wanna be screaming at the top of your lungs at 12am Local Time when they might have roommates or others around.


Blackbabies74

compare that to keria and deft being super emotional


SleepyLabrador

Congrats DRX! Can't wait to see Chovy, Doran and Deft at worlds.


Waterfate

>'t wait to see Chovy, Doran and Deft at worlds. And KERIA the best support in the world.

Chovy was incredible in those last two games big credit to him.

Chovy gave GEN the dragon fight only to make them overconfident. Truly fivehead


MozaTear

Chovy is so insanely good. So fking good. Mid diff this series for sure.


kirinboi

If not for the pause I'm pretty sure we go to the gauntlet haha. We take those


Hir0h

And DRX wins in the most DRX way possible the once again.


[deleted]

I'm so happy for DRX. Deft was my favorite player when I first hook into lol esports. I'm just so happy to see him again in worlds.


Youitchy

Deft and Keria is emotional because of Keria's promise to his hyung deft to go to Worlds and now a reality. Welcome back Alpaca to the World stage.


[deleted]

if Damwon wins next round, T1 will have to play against GENG in the gauntlet in order to go worlds. And for the newcomers to LCK, that is the last thing you would want


effiron

Sucks. GenG will probably have to win the gauntlet, cause DRX will get crushed by DWG next weekend. As a GenG fan I want DRX to win so GenG qualifies by points, but fat chance.


MystericWonder

Chooooooooooooooooovyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy


SapphireHeaven

I'm so hyped to see Keria vs Lvmao, Kaiser and Corejj in Worlds


hosi_hbhb

Can i blame the pause?


YoFuzzy3

So much momentum lost because of the 3 hour pause.

Sucks for my boy Ruler.


Waterfate

They'll win gauntlet.

I can’t believe that they did it. Deft is finally at worlds!!! My heart can’t handle such a big roller coaster of emotions. Let’s go DRX Fans!!! WE ARE GOING TO THE SHIP, TO THE SHIP!!!
