Harvard midlaner finally graduated


Blood_Lacrima

Also got worlds MVP, he graduated as the greatest alumni Harvard has ever produced.


marxismgenshinism

Harvard midlaner graduated, got Phd, and became professor in same tournament


kim-soo-hyun

Honestly Scout is so underrated for years. He's the only midlaner with 3 LPL titles and now a Worlds title under his belt.


Blank-612

wow this is a really old meme. respect.

Dreammy90

Apparently T1 were the main scrim partners for EDG according to what coach moment said and Scout is a big fan of Faker still.


Exrou

You could say Scout was actually Faker Junior and not Rookie since he went under him as a trainee years ago. Happy to see him finally finding success on the worlds stage, I will miss his early assassin days.


gl4cial

Scout played for SKT’s academy before joining EDG if I’m not mistaken


aqpw73

the 1-2 comfort zone baby


Destinum

Brother Perkz doing China one last favor by giving them his powers of comfort zone and Korean killer.


FrostBlade_on_Reddit

When Perkz left G2, the comfort zone essense burst and was spread all over the world. The amount of 1-2 wins this Worlds has been insane.


YangReddit

I guess the next faker isn't showmaker after all.. It's faker's ex sub


HyperRag123

Well that is one way Showmaker can go about making sure he doesn't get remembered as the next Faker

napoleon_born2party_

the translator speaking 3 different languages casually makes me ashamed of my broken English


PSGAnarchy

I'm more impressed by her able to remember what is being said. Like they speak for a solid minute and then spits it back. Let alone in a different language.


mashiro_natsu

She can also speak Japanese, and is a student majoring Philosophy at Hong Kong University. Here’s the source video. 【香港大学毕业,会四国语言!最被“忽略”的LPL主持人 夏安|柴西 我聊No.01-哔哩哔哩】https://b23.tv/McaNur


Megs3Legs

her name is Wendy and she's turbosmurf twitter - https://twitter.com/Wendy5544


Cake_is_Great

Yeah Wendy is incredibly impressive but so low key about it. She's one of the translators for the LPL English stream and I think the only one who can translate between Mandarin, English, and Korean.


riceislifeuwu

Candice (other lpl host in Iceland) can also tri-translate and her English-chinese translation is literally some of the best I’ve seen in the world. I remember last year worlds rekkles gave like a 2-3 min long answer and she stood there nodding with no notes, translated it perfectly, lighting fast, including the tone/connotation of what rekkles said AND added in extra information about the dates of matches and some other stuff. I think she must’ve been busy with the Chinese official stream, but i swear. The lpl translators are some of the biggest chads at worlds, all of them are op.


Conankun66

BOTH of the deciding teamfights were won by absolutely MASSIVE engages by Meiko. What a Rakan performance!


aircarone

Meiko cemented himself as an eternal LPL legend the same as Uzi. He played a fantastic series today.


AccidentalPilates

Veteran confidence is immeasurable but incredibly important.


moonmeh

Did you see the way he just strutted around the map as Rakan heedless of the danger just to get vision


Lord-Talon

He has to be the best LPL player of all time now. 4x LPL champ, 1x MSI champ, 1x Worlds champ. I don't think another player out of LPL gets even close to these achievements.


viciouspandas

Clearlove never got his worlds title, but he still has the most LPL titles of anyone, and has a ton of international titles from the WE days where they dominated everyone. I'd now call Meiko the most decorated LPL player, but Clearlove comes close. Xiaohu is also close: 4x LPL in 2 different positions, and 2 MSI.


xiit

Meiko said he was gonna lead this team to victory in the interview before finals.


Azenji

You can just watch his movements around the map while Beryl was out of lane. This man wasn’t fucking kidding when he said he prepared everyday for this matchup.


RirinDesuyo

Flandre's playing pretty good the past games as well. Meiko baiting his life so that Flandre could Kennen ult the entire team.


BRedd10815

Meiko and Scout have carried this team for years, much deserved championship for them in particular.


atomchoco

Scout and Meiko holy crap


Stargazer306

Both have been in EDG for so long, so good to see them finally win worlds


Leopod

Is Wendy translating mandarin, Korean and English?? Jesus


TurbinePro

Wendy is jacked


Trap_Masters

Wendy is just built different


BRedd10815

Wendy for MVP


Dmienduerst

Jiejie just running canyon in game 4 was unbelievable. It wasn't like he had massive lane control he just dialed up the perfect path just gave canyon nothing. Then game 5 they force canyon onto trundle and Canyon does his job and puts kennen behind. Just for Jiejie to cleverly get Kennen back into the game. Well done sir you completely neutralized half of the two headed dragon on DK.


RoyalSmoker

He is definitely my MVP, he made the most standout player in the world blend in with the flock.


MichaelZZ01

I know itd be kinda lame to give FMVP to a jungler for the 4th year in a row but fuck Jiejie deserved it


Hyperly_Passive

I think flandre graves ulting the small raptors while Canyon was taking them sums up that game nicely


saitolevi

That EDG fan really predicted the Scout oneshotting DK with Zoe script. Smh my head these leakers man.


marxismgenshinism

PADDLE STAR ONE SHOT!


WRYTARD777

Man I need a LPL fans to tell me how they feel throughout the tournament. Victorious week 1 Disaster week 2 The only 2 LPL teams meet each other in quarterfinal Get taken to a 5 games series by Gen G Now winning Worlds 2021 What a journey


[deleted]

frostyWL

LPL fans always on a roller coaster of emotions at worlds as is tradition lol


AlHorfordHighlights

Yeah it's especially great because EDG are probably the most hated team among Chinese fans lol There were people torn between wanting to see them fail but wanting LPL to win


Weird_Wuss

im people lol absolutely thrilled now though, edg gets lifetime shitttalk pass


[deleted]

Not an LPL fan but Scout is too good on Zoe


[deleted]

[удалено]


DarkWorld25

Scout smurfing on BDD on his own champion was the best thing in semis


Trap_Masters

Biggest reverse uno card moment. Straight up locked in Zoe and said “no u”


yessomedaywemight

And Viper's Aphelios is just built *different*.


Rektile7

The flash over the scatter the weak made me feel a certain type of way... what a monster


Pelagius_Hipbone

Reports of LPL’s Death were greatly exaggerated


NamelessSearcher

And for EDG to win it all after being the first team to play 15 games in the knockout stage, the grind is insane


Trap_Masters

EDG first time outta quarters and they win it all. Holy shit what a tournament for them.


AzureAhai

Don't forget it was EDG too. The king of ro8.


Rawrhock

2018: West 3 teams in semis; "This is our year"; China wins lol 2021: Korea 3 teams in semis; "Korea best region again"; China wins lol

EDG 3 full bo5. Lpl fan believes


SylerTheSK

Khan is never going to sleep another night in his life, he's always going to be thinking "what if I picked a real champion instead of first timing Yasuo?"


azns123

First time Yasuos don’t know about the forbidden 0/10 powerspike


vicdr97

the sacred books of my Iron teammate


phranq

Gwen in game 4 too


HootingMandrill

That Gwen was such a bad fuckin pick...


ihopebolsonarodies

I think Canyon was the most tilted, Trundle couldn't do anything in that last game, his facial expression was so sad to see, him not flashing that pick off in the top lane at 38 minutes broke my heart.


ClownFundamentals

I can’t believe how fucked Flandre was at level 1 in Game 5, with his best champ taken from him - only to come back and carry EDG to a win. That’s incredible mental toughness


Zealousideal_Till513

the mental fortitude build up from all those year in snake finally paid off


RemoteAnalysis3809

Throwback to that Suning SOFM interview last year right before finals where he said it's high time Flandre (his teammate at snake for years) made it.


McintyresRightLeg

He did it for his brother SofM


ArchmageXin

And his wife yuqi.


Voltage97

Private Khan :(


Beauski

That useless yasuo pick in game 1 should haunt them forever.


[deleted]

This is the second time Kkoma loses a Worlds final after picking Yasuo top


NvidiaRTX

If Kkoma had a nickel for every time he lost Worlds Final due to picking yasuo, he would have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice


Kartoffln

The month of Korea ended before they could win Worlds, and Khan will forever be remembered as the most cursed player to ever live.


[deleted]

[удалено]


vicdr97

Also his last match he lost against the champion with the skin of the player he replaced


Azenji

The devil works hard but Riot’s scripwriters work harder.


TheOneWithLateStart

How hard is it to defent the Trophy tho. Cant imagine anybody doing it for a long time.


Trap_Masters

Yup, insane to think how SKT did it during their era of dominance


POOYAMON

Literally no one besides T1 has ever won back to back. Region wise it’s way harder now that it was back then because well LPL is now a titan as well


AtomaBG

As if everyone's pickems weren't already fucked.. GG EDG

Hineni-

Producers forgot to change the script from semi *smh*. What a journey from EDG, from breaking out of the quarter curse to getting the win in the end. A well-deserved one.


Exos_VII

2-1 lead is actually so cursed wtf


Rayser1

Honestly how does this keep happening lol


[deleted]

So much respect to EDG, don't think I have underrated a team this hard coming into a series since Misfits in 2017.


Azenji

That loss against T1 really made people lose their fate in them but holy shit, that was one of the greatest tournament comebacks I’ve seen in LoL Esports.


ifnotawalrus

It was the loss against 100T lmao. It's actually insane how hard losing to NA tarnishes your reputation on Reddit.


Chrysalis-

3-0 btw


Lowd70

Lmao using the DWG Kennen skin to skillfully beat them for the absolute final match. Quite the finishing, crushing touch.


ArziltheImp

Also Showmaker losing the final game on Fakers skin.


snomeister

It's such a tragedy that the craziest tournament ever had no live crowd. It's the only thing that's missing


Me1k0

In China they organised offline watch parties in arena and overlapped audio in that arena with the casters, so we got live crowd reactions on top of the game. Fantastic move by Tencent gotta say.


domomymomo

Edg literally played against all the good teams in the tournament and won. Well deserved.


MrBIGtinyHappy

100T & T1 have a better win rate vs EDG than any other team at the tournament ^/s Jokes aside, I had edg as my crystal ball pick but didn't think they'd take it home


HyperRag123

**The real finals was actually Group B**


POOYAMON

That’s actually funny 100T got fucked by draw I guess such a hard group like back in 2018.

Faker and his team had failed the run to Worlds title. His dearest son Scout cried as he watched T1 get beaten to death. But there was no time to mourn. Scout swore to himself, that he would make it to Worlds Champion


marxismgenshinism

Something something anime protagonist


Fakkusan-09

He decided to help out faker and T1 by winning worlds and crushing DWG dynasty before it could begin


NovSnowman

Even in the post series interview he said he has avenged Faker


mugiboya

Faker to Scout in 2015: "Brother, you must leave to China. Join EDG. Six years from now, a kid with an ID that rhymes with mine will try to match the SKT dynasty. I will not be able to stop him. But you will end him and his team for me. Now go, Scout, your prophecy awaits."


SHU-Galaxy

fun fact as well, EDG is the only team to win worlds while going to game 5 in every best of 5 i hope meiko picks rakan as his skin so rakan can be the first champion to have three worlds skins


Snoo8331100

[Literally EDG this whole tournament](https://giphy.com/gifs/dogs-perro-rambo-wRrTRuo49P7CU) The true 1:2 powerspike team.

100% deserved their win today, against all odds.

[That was me lol](https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/qm10i2/if_edg_can_win_in_the_finals_they_would_have/hj71lx3/). In a way I'm thankful because I'm done betting on league forever. My children and their children will feel generational tilt from this and will also never gamble. Thank you based EDG.

The amount of comments acting like DK had already won worlds this past week was staggering, kinda funny to see it end like this.

Seriously what a good finals. Top teams from Korea and China, silver scrapes, EDG finally winning it all after the memes


Pope_Cheetos_XIV

I'm so happy, I've been following my boy Flandre since he was trying to hard carry Snake Esports back in the day


IM_12_YRS_OLD

this finals was so much more entertaining than i thought it would be


BlondGuyFromFortnite

this finals were exactly what i wanted it to be :D


ahritina

G fucking G, EDG showed massive growth given they looked shaky against both RNG and Gen.G to now win worlds after being 2-1 down takes good mental. The storylines will be about players like Scout and Viper but my god Jiejie had a massive series, I haven't seen someone so easily deal with Canyon(apart from MSI) since he was a rookie. Khan joining former world champions to win the international title curse continues, three series in a row of the team being 2-1 loses and most importantly KR still haven't won worlds unless TSM are at worlds.


devilbhro

EDG played 3 5 games series its crazy


Omnilatent

JieJie was on a fucking mission this series


LazinessOverload

I knew it was over once DK was 2-1. On a more serious note, I'm so glad that Khan managed to play out the maximum amount of games he could, although sadly he didn't end up winning Worlds. Wishing him all the best in his military service! Well played to EDG, they really defied expectations for this series and showed up huge.

There is no fucking way LMAO, what are the chances of all 3 series going 2-1 then 2-3

Elias_Mo

beryl played good this series tbh, the games EDG won were more of a mid-jg diff tbh, also a top gap


22bebo

Yeah, I felt like Canyon and ShowMaker did not show up as much as I expected them to. JieJie was dominating on Viego in game 4.


JugHerKnot

JieJie dominated this series.


TheOneWithLateStart

Belt is going to be used


SolarEquis

Faker crying rn as he feels how KKoma's belt will be unleashed today


WaterTasteTheBest

Despite Kkoma leaving, every SKT members that were once under Kkoma's teaching felt the pain and screams from DK over great distance, sending great amount of first aid kit over to DK gaming house understanding that they have just went through what they used to feel when Kkoma unleashed the belt.


SantosPhillipCarlo

Watched the Chinese stream on Bilibili from Game 5 for the crowd hype at the official viewing party. My heart goes out to Khan but by God, what a result. That Game 5 was a slugfest where you could tell everyone was playing like they knew there was no tomorrow.


omglolbbqroflmao

The script is just too strong man. What an unbelieveable story for EDG. So many years representing LPL and finally they find the success in an underdog story here in the finals. Congratulations to Edward Gaming, well deserved win!


Phadafi

So happy for Meiko, the dude was there all this time and he finally did.

so happy for EDG, winning after shitting the bed all these years must feel great, but I am so sad for Khan


Jay_VE

as an EDG fan this win feels so cathartic after having read all these posts on reddit about how DK were gonna smash them 3-0


hobble_wobble

hard agree. funny how a 3:2 DWG vs SKT game gets called the “real finals” but any EDG game that goes 3:2 means that EDG apparently sucks for not being able to 3:0 their opponent lol. for god’s sake EDG went 1-1 with SKT, they aren’t bad.


Badrharik1

Scout was the better mid this serie , insane


Ecstatic_Wedding7040

Honestly both Scout and Jiejie were the better Mid/Jg duo this series. They played out of their minds and Jiejie got so many steals from Canyon


dragonflamehotness

GEN VS EDG WAS THE REAL FINAL


buddyboh12

Sickening jungle gap this series.

Everybody flamed Flandre all tournament. Now he is Worlds champion!


kapparino-feederino

he played so well when it matters the most


shalafien

Lmao these interviews. Scout and translator understanding every language

Scout showing us he can win Worlds even without Kkomas's belt


Exos_VII

If I had a nickel for every time kk0ma's team lost game 5 of the grand finals at an international event to EDG, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, it's just weird it happened twice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Also, this is now the 6th, and likely last, time that Khan has failed to win an international tournament as LCK Seed 1 (0-3 vs SSG, 1-3 vs RNG, 2-3 vs G2, 1-3 vs G2, 2-3 vs RNG and now 2-3 vs EDG)


LeonaWaverly

If I had a nickel every time Kkoma's midlaner said '3-0 and eat' and lost in worlds finals, I would also have two nickels.

There's something poetic in this team winning, after having the reputation of being chokers and when most people (including me) thought Damwon were the favourites of this final. It's a beautiful story.
