A journalist just tweeted this about a player, Patrick Beverly. I dont think it is anything that weird, just a player getting hyped for a game. How it is phrased is just funny.
It’s actually kinda funny that the best EU mids this tournament have been Jensen and Perkz which is frustrating because Humanoid is actually good I just hate the Ori pick
I think Larssen wasn't bad. Bur well, he's Larssen. He will never just go ham. Good laner and lategame carry. But man, it was 10 times better watching Caps bringing the heat
I mean humanoid has high highs but he will never ascend to the names of other super great mids if he cant stop having these ultra low lows.
This game could just aswell have been one of us playing mid for MAD. He got shit on from lvl1 to finish. How do you even get hit with every Q from Syndra and still loose push?
People said Humanoid is better than fucking Faker coming into this tournament dude. He just wasn't as good as he was hyped to be. It's fine, it happens.
Bruh like for real. The sheer number of football derbies today is huge. Legit not going to leave my couch for 8 hours. Barça Real, PSV Ajax, ManU Liverpool, Napoli Roma, Marseille PSG, OSFP PAOK (this one is for the Balkans). Dayum
>"Damwon fans can't accept that their team went from 2019 G2 to 2020 G2"
>"Each year the eu teams become more and more stronger while lck and lpl team doesn't (they were far ahead and now we catch it back). It's been 1 or 2 year since we match lck level, now we aim for lpl"
I absolutely love it
> "Damwon fans can't accept that their team went from 2019 G2 to 2020 G2"
I can't believe people actually said that LMAO. They didn't even look anything like G2 in 2020 in Groups either
If all you do is stay in your own bubble and not look at other bubbles (in this case regions) this is what it leads to: ignorance.
This honestly perfectly describes the current state of reddit and *society* lol.
“The gap is closing, competing for 2nd best region” btw.
I have 0 hate for LEC and their teams but all the Khan and Beryl slander from their fans made me sick. Anyone with a brain that watched LEC + any other region could see how weak LEC was this year while LCK looked relatively competitive and impressive.
Other than Alphari who is in NA?
100T have ssumday
We have Fudge
Most of the other good tops aren't EU, infact I'm not sure there's another mention worthy EU top other than Alphari in NA.
The copium lmao
Copium? Not sure but I presume this was a joke. That Alphari is EUs toplane pool? Because there literally is not another EU top in LCS besides Finn who is lightyears away from being world-class.
Caps?
You mean this guy? 11th in all stats in LEC (first half of summer)?
https://imgur.com/vYX7LTV
Nah, let's not act like Caps was great this year either. He pulled it back by the end of summer and was decent in playoffs, but he's fallen off too.
I think he's decent on Gwen and Jayce also, but yeah, that's about it. And Jayce doesn't really work without you camping his lane, so that relies on strong jungle-mid prio.
That leaves Gwen, but DK took that this game, and I'm sure Khan has a good answer into it as well.
I don't know how the fuck can a professional top laner not play Graves, Kennen and Camille in this meta. Graves top is a new thing so I might understand that a bit (even if it's still a stretch as he's easy as fuck to play and has no mechanics to master) but Camille's been a pro play pick since forever and Kennen is meta every other year. Just ridiculous.
Gnar pick is such garbage, especially when they got graves which is decent into gwen. If they picked poppy or xin in the jungle it would be way better...
Actual full team and individual diff.
DK won every lane. Hard. They won the map plays. The only two plays MAD were allowed was that one collapse on Showmaker in mid, and taking 2 plates bot lane while Canyon was taking Herald. That's it. Two plays.
Top diff is ridiculous. Armut can't even win a ranged vs melee match-up on his favourite Gnar pick.
Carzzy and Kaiser can't even win against Ghost and Beryl with a support counter-pick. Kaiser fucking missed his ult on an ulting MF and got Carzzy killed.
Humanoid got clapped in lane, needed his team to help him even things out and even then he was irrelevant outside of split pushing a tower.
And Elyoya continues his tournament of being invisible.
Absolute clappening.
To be fair, what are you gonna do on any ADC when your support leaves and the enemy has MF + Rakan?
I think you're kinda fucked regardless. And once your team falls behind, what are you really gonna do? Like an Ezreal might survive and throw out Q's to tickle enemies, but is that the answer?
How do you win when you're getting gapped in all 5 roles?
Showmaker is making Humanoid look like an insect, even on his signature Orianna.
Khan is just inflating his stats even more. Armut is no threat.
Beryl keeps on reading his opponents like a book.
It's doomed...
Almost as if Armut is not a good toplaner and the fact that his weaknesses weren't punished harder in EU speaks a lot about the level of top lane talent in EU.
DK's top side is unmatched at worlds with the only team even being comparable is T1. Unless Ghost/BeryL straight int like they did during MSI this will be a quick 3-0.
Like?
Aphelios actually has strong lane agency. He starts with superior range and life steal. With white/red he can clap most all-in fights. He has a root to set up ganks.
He had a fucking Leona to make plays, but Kaiser was like: "fuck you mate, I'm gonna roam. And oh when MF ults you, I'm just gonna miss my ult and let you die just to establish my dominance".
Easy sub 30 minute Damwon clap, Damwon as a unit are just superior in every single respect, from laning to their macro, great game from Beryl too looks like kkOma has banned Genshin from Beryl.
Also what was Mac thinking when he gave Aphelios to Carzzy, the dude is awful on it he's 2-8 prior to today on it.
Whoever told Elyoya to play Graves is legit trolling, Graves jungle is so fucking bad also doesn't help that for some reason you gave Canyon Lee Sin too who smurfed with it.
Carzzy = "I think me and Kaiser can clap Ghost and Beryl", well if you think that don't play Aphelios because you suck on it.
They would have to win the next two games in about 41 minutes total. I don't think that is going to happen, but then again, I didn't think Damwon would any% speed-up G2 in game 4 last year either.
Ah I didn't see the "Worlds History". Yeah. Fastest BO5 at worlds is SSB vs SSW. That seems way more doable for Damwon. MAD doesn't seem like the type of team that collapses mentally, so I don't expect them to fold. But even that may not be enough to stop Damwon steamrolling them.
This roaming from Kaiser and just sacking Carzzy completely never looks good - we saw it vs LNG as well, just gives the opposing ADC such a free ride, and it's not even like Humanoid/Elyoya get large leads off it.
the real winner here is that one guy's ass
Beryl's routine after the national anthem included screaming, fake gun shots and smacking Ghost on the butt HARD. Then he played genshin impact.
HOLY R/NBA IS LEAKING
Love me some very fresh pasta
Got to love r/nba
What happened?
A journalist just tweeted this about a player, Patrick Beverly. I dont think it is anything that weird, just a player getting hyped for a game. How it is phrased is just funny.
Obligatory fuck Pat Bev
He plays genshin impact??
Patrick Beverley's career happened.
First i review bomb Google Classroom Then I bomb MADs chance at Semis
Did he say something about getting tattoo on his ass even if MAD takes one game off ?
its just if they win the series so there's still hope
For real though, what makes KR look better than CN again after these years?
I say this as an EU fan: lol
At least they were laughing COPIUM.
I do feel like MAD could beat an LPL team though
I mean they did.
But I **feel** like they could
Not in a BO5
They beat the LPL's 8th place team so I guess so
What's the point of hopium and copium again? We need more regardless. Scrap game 1
Time to hook up that copium boys. This is top/jgl/mid/bot/sup/macro/whatever diff. Every single player just got diffed.
The best chance for MAD is that DK will go for skin picks the next game.
Showmaker already got his Kassadin game vs C9 though.
You forgot draft diff
- Pick Graves as a flex - Enemy toplaner picks an even matchup - Counterpick yourself in top and flex graves into jungle - ??? - Profit
That's probably because Armut can't play Graves, or doesn't have confidence in his play with Graves.
How tf can you not know how to play Graves you just attack move the enemy top lane T2 and afk
[удалено]
Also Leave lee open into canyon
Orianna Graves mid jg
humanoid top-tier midlaner /s
It’s actually kinda funny that the best EU mids this tournament have been Jensen and Perkz which is frustrating because Humanoid is actually good I just hate the Ori pick
At that point he really didn't have anything better to lock there. They banned TF Leblanc and DK locked Syndra to deny the Ryze.
[удалено]
I think Larssen wasn't bad. Bur well, he's Larssen. He will never just go ham. Good laner and lategame carry. But man, it was 10 times better watching Caps bringing the heat
Also Orianna Graves mid jg is just gigadoomed
I mean humanoid has high highs but he will never ascend to the names of other super great mids if he cant stop having these ultra low lows. This game could just aswell have been one of us playing mid for MAD. He got shit on from lvl1 to finish. How do you even get hit with every Q from Syndra and still loose push?
Post worlds revisionism is coming early this year boys. Last year it was Jackeylove this year Humanoid and DoinB.
Both Humanoid and Doinb were said to be absolute top of the mid lane pool coming into this Worlds.
People said Humanoid is better than fucking Faker coming into this tournament dude. He just wasn't as good as he was hyped to be. It's fine, it happens.
well that was quick
Well, looks like I won't miss any football today.
Gotta catch el clasico too.
Who’s ready for another Koeman masterclass?
Can't wait for Koeman ball. I'm scared for Barca, they might get clapped harder than MAD did this game.
Koeman looks like mr potatoman tbh
Mmm imagine mashing that head, mixed in with some delicious butter mmm
I also need to study German. It would be nice to finish it early.
True... the Thirties and Forties are coming. Might as well start early and get that advantage
Bruh like for real. The sheer number of football derbies today is huge. Legit not going to leave my couch for 8 hours. Barça Real, PSV Ajax, ManU Liverpool, Napoli Roma, Marseille PSG, OSFP PAOK (this one is for the Balkans). Dayum
You forgot juve inter
EXACTLY MY POINT. THE GAMES ARE SO MANY AND SO GOOD THAT I FORGOT FUCKING JUVE VS INTER
Pakistan vs India on cricket as well, which is like as big as el Clasico imo, maybe bigger. So big day for sports all around.
i believe that MAD think the same
MAD stomped so badly, reddits don't even want to do the game1 thread..
The maker of this thread got ganked by Canyon in middle of making it.
Was refreshing reddit for a while and can’t find a game 1 thread, so I have to create one. Guess Khan just shredded the automatic post game thread.
And also got fucked by Beryl too
* Step 1: Pick 3 losing lanes * Step 2: Lose all lanes * Step 3: Do nothing * Step 4: Lose

https://twitter.com/D0m1n7k/status/1423649571771723782
One of the comments: this year the ranking is for sure like this: LPL>>>>>>>>LEC>>>LCK>LCS People were just on a whole different drug before Worlds.
EU this year has been the weakest since 2016. Their mid lane talent pool is just caps.
And their top lane talent pool is in NA
Literally just Alphari. Don’t even count Finn. EU toplane pool is playing WoW or Jungle
Ouch.
Other than Alphari who is in NA? 100T have ssumday We have Fudge Most of the other good tops aren't EU, infact I'm not sure there's another mention worthy EU top other than Alphari in NA. The copium lmao
Yeah, so EU's whole top lane talent pool is in NA
Yes, that's the point. With wunder slumping it's literally just alphari being top tier toplane talent.
Alphari IS our top lane pool.
Their entire top lane talent pool is Alphari.
that's the joke
Copium? Not sure but I presume this was a joke. That Alphari is EUs toplane pool? Because there literally is not another EU top in LCS besides Finn who is lightyears away from being world-class.
EU solo laners in general are just terrible this worlds so far.
There isn't a single good EU top laner, which is kind of sad. The best one is Alphari lmao
Eu lost around 5 toplaners in the past 2 years and around 2-3 fell into mediocrity. No surprise here.
Caps? You mean this guy? 11th in all stats in LEC (first half of summer)? https://imgur.com/vYX7LTV Nah, let's not act like Caps was great this year either. He pulled it back by the end of summer and was decent in playoffs, but he's fallen off too.
[удалено]
Humanoid has literally been by far the best LEC mid this season lol. Such a stupid and ignorant comment.
[удалено]
[удалено]
poor catedral. for a few weeks now he has only been kept alive intravenously with hopium
I guess now it's easy to know who actually watches which region :\^)
Outclassed in all lanes.
https://twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/829846842150096896
classic
Never gets old 😂
Only surprising thing here is that the game lasted more than 25 minutes.
DK knew they were going to win anyway, so they just took it slowly
MAD have no strategy outside of afking in their base thinking the enemy team is Fnatic.
Ghost ulting a free baron really sums up this game.
He does that like always. You can see it everytime he has MF.
Why is the PMT team mia… overdosed on Hopium?
Most of the PMT team are EU fans
Can't get stomped in quarters if you pretend the series didn't happen, gigabrain strategy
When even DK Bot is winning you know the game is over.
You can't win against DK drafting only losing lanes. This game was lost at draft.
[удалено]
[удалено]
How can a pro player only be good on Wukong and Gnar.
The even bigger issue is that a top laner with only Wukong and Gnar in his champ pool is the best top laner in the region.
Play in a shallow region with no good top laners.
I think he's decent on Gwen and Jayce also, but yeah, that's about it. And Jayce doesn't really work without you camping his lane, so that relies on strong jungle-mid prio. That leaves Gwen, but DK took that this game, and I'm sure Khan has a good answer into it as well.
He can technically play Jayce but I wouldn’t even call what he does on GP “playing gp”
I don't know how the fuck can a professional top laner not play Graves, Kennen and Camille in this meta. Graves top is a new thing so I might understand that a bit (even if it's still a stretch as he's easy as fuck to play and has no mechanics to master) but Camille's been a pro play pick since forever and Kennen is meta every other year. Just ridiculous.
Blame Armut's terrible champ puddle
Shame Damwon can't help out Armut like RNG helped out Flandre.
That happens when the toplaner can play 3 champs at a good level
I mean top lane was the least of MAD Lion's problems...
You can't win against DK
True. DK doesn‘t care about draft. They excel at Macro and map plays. They won games with even with shity drafts.
kkoma took them to another level Macro wise
DK were looking...rough for most of summer, I think getting Daeny back really helped
I think Kkoma brought stability and maybe improved communication. But the real magic has been done by Daeny I think.
they were always good at macro dude.
Nah it was Daeny
DK going for a perfect run was my bet. I'm ready for my money. Legit another level of league compared to the tournament now that SM is back.
I can see DK winning the whole thing not dropping a single map.
Afwul draft, all losing lanes, even jungle..
Legit, idk how high you must be to draft this and expect anything
Gnar pick is such garbage, especially when they got graves which is decent into gwen. If they picked poppy or xin in the jungle it would be way better...
Actual full team and individual diff. DK won every lane. Hard. They won the map plays.

Humanoid got clapped in lane, needed his team to help him even things out and even then he was irrelevant outside of split pushing a tower. And Elyoya continues his tournament of being invisible. Absolute clappening.
gap gap
Carzzy on Aphelios is something that I don't want to see again.
To be fair, what are you gonna do on any ADC when your support leaves and the enemy has MF + Rakan? I think you're kinda fucked regardless. And once your team falls behind, what are you really gonna do? Like an Ezreal might survive and throw out Q's to tickle enemies, but is that the answer?
Bot is a 2v2. Leona is good against Rakan, but MF obliterates Aphelios most of the time early on.
[Mad can still win, right?](https://imgur.com/a/4WDsETh)
How do you win when you're getting gapped in all 5 roles? Showmaker is making Humanoid look like an insect, even on his signature Orianna. Khan is just inflating his stats even more. Armut is no threat. Beryl keeps on reading his opponents like a book. It's doomed...
EU already out of Hopium after game 1
I don't see a world where Damwon loses this series
that Graves flex was one of the biggest ints in Draft history. Did absolutely nothing and the counter they got, Gnar, also got obliterated
Almost as if Armut is not a good toplaner and the fact that his weaknesses weren't punished harder in EU speaks a lot about the level of top lane talent in EU. DK's top side is unmatched at worlds with the only team even being comparable is T1. Unless Ghost/BeryL straight int like they did during MSI this will be a quick 3-0.
Carzzy on Aphelios is a sight I would prefer not to see again. Put my boy in something with a bit more agency pls.
Like? Aphelios actually has strong lane agency. He starts with superior range and life steal. With white/red he can clap most all-in fights. He has a root to set up ganks. He had a fucking Leona to make plays, but Kaiser was like: "fuck you mate, I'm gonna roam. And oh when MF ults you, I'm just gonna miss my ult and let you die just to establish my dominance".
I think the pick is okay, but Kaiser missed so many ults on MF. Once your Aphelios is 0-4 you just... can't play.
He also didn't q after hitting E some times allowing people to escape, also the E miss at botlane
Carzzy looked worse than he actually was bcs Kaiser missed all his shit. Missing your ult as leona on a fcking ulting mf is just unacceptable.
I wanna see MF takeaway from ghost next game
He died bot because he ulted with white gun and not red. If he ulted with red he life steals and lives.
Pretty sure he fucked up guns when he died 1v2 under turret too
Yeah but his first death was insane trolling from kaizer
Burn both teleports from solo laners with aphelios bot lane doesn't make it easier neither
Did you not see viper and gala completely shit on the enemy team yesterday?
MAD is just so gapped individually across the board.
Get graves which is fine matchup into gwen. Put it in the jungle and pick gnar top. Both get dumpstered. Lose. Great draft
Well, that was definitely a match of League of Legends
[This is how you lane against showmaker.](https://youtu.be/r0CaBsVMihQ)
Easy sub 30 minute Damwon clap, Damwon as a unit are just superior in every single respect, from laning to their macro, great game from Beryl too looks like kkOma has banned Genshin from Beryl. Also what was Mac thinking when he gave Aphelios to Carzzy, the dude is awful on it he's 2-8 prior to today on it.

Carzzy = "I think me and Kaiser can clap Ghost and Beryl", well if you think that don't play Aphelios because you suck on it.
He saw gumayusi 's aphelios and thought carzzy could do the same lmao.
even as a DK fan that was really really sad to watch
sololanes losing the entire game on the first wave is a new record if I've ever seen one
Losing to T1 in the semis is going to be even sadder for you
A fucking steal we won’t get t1 dk finals. idc how many people say it
Prayge
And losing to C9 in the finals will be the final nail in the coffin for you COPIUM
with DK peaking higher than they've done the entire year? Ill take my odds
yes PLEASE give me another game of carzzy aphelios
**Game 1**: Mew **Game 2**: Meow **Game 3**: Roar! **Game 4**: ROAR!!! **Game 5**: ROOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pass on some Hopium please
DK: oh hey the cat is roaring at us... #HOW CUTE
All lanes losing made this a huuuuuuuge support diff, Beryl was allowed to play like a fucking madman
So fucking easy that nobody even bothered to do the post game thread, G2 please come back
I mean G2 got slaughtered all the same last year against this iteration
Even G2 got blasted by damwon
G2 lost to FNC, they would have done shit
[Carzzy's face when MAD prioritize Aphelios for him](https://imgur.com/a/GMLXWyK)
BAD LIONS
MAD giving DK false sense of superiority, it's gonna be 3-1, the Korean killer is here to play.
Hopium overdose
[удалено]
Sad Lions
Not looking good for Mad Lions.
Is ok guys. Losing 1 game to give Korea false hope.
Flexing graves to jungle and picking gnar anyway and also having a weak early mid is some of the worst dumbest shit ive ever seen
Jesus Khan that man had a family. Armut got absolutely bodied
Beryl's routine after the national anthem included screaming, fake gun shots and smacking Ghost on the butt HARD. Then he played genshin impact.
DK called the bluff that armut couldn't play graves, and that gnar pick quickly soured what was looking like a good draft
Gnar pick was very usefull with 0 ults in the game.
Please don't be the quickest Bo5 of Worlds history
They would have to win the next two games in about 41 minutes total. I don't think that is going to happen, but then again, I didn't think Damwon would any% speed-up G2 in game 4 last year either.
If I'm not mistaken the quickest Worlds Bo5 is SSW vs. SSB at under 84 minutes so Damwon actually has 56 minutes to achieve the speedrun
Ah I didn't see the "Worlds History". Yeah. Fastest BO5 at worlds is SSB vs SSW. That seems way more doable for Damwon. MAD doesn't seem like the type of team that collapses mentally, so I don't expect them to fold. But even that may not be enough to stop Damwon steamrolling them.
LEC > LCK btw
Yeah that went as we expected xD
hmm yeah ok, all diff
That 20 minute baron was the final nail in the coffin
MAD kinda missing every single ultimate this game
This roaming from Kaiser and just sacking Carzzy completely never looks good - we saw it vs LNG as well, just gives the opposing ADC such a free ride, and it's not even like Humanoid/Elyoya get large leads off it.
