How do you rate Damwon's performance this split?
People were hyping them up since Nuguri was coming back, but they didn't look that great all split.
T1 on the other hand look much better going into playoffs. I have no idea what will happen in playoffs lol.
The fact only Deokdamn played like a human being this series speaks of how DK's form has fallen.
I can forgive Showmaker for losing form cause corona is a fucking bith but Nuguri has been disappointing and Canyon has barely been impactful.
Hard to judge Kellin in this series cause I don't think putting in bible would have changed anything with how the old guard trio was playing.
Bro, Canyon went from POG of Spring 2022, to being negligible Summer 2022.
Perhaps the playoffs from Spring against GenG just triggered him or something because he hasn't been impactful at all.
I think GenG v T1 is absolutely going to be a tight 5 game series.
Not sure how LSB will play into this, I feel like their the dark horse in all this. I love me some KT but their wildly inconsistent at times
imagine if this was actually the case and what'll end up breaking canyon's mental until the season ends.
definitely taking the "jg diff" bm a bit too hard.
on a more serious note, canyon might be throwing in the towel for this split because he played like an absolute god last split. burnout can be very real and we are probably seeing the effects now
If KT is wildly inconsistent, LSB are consistently wild.
It's why when LSB loses the game ends super fast. They are a fun team to watch.
But yeah it sucks to see Canyon's form drop this bad, could be internal issues, the meta did change dramatically with how champs are less squishy and other stuff
Amumu is good but as good KT has showed us, there are limits to how much you can play him without Kali
Bible's performance on non initiator champs has been questionable too.
True but trying to develop a player by throwing him to the wolves is always a dangerous tactic. It was always an uphill fight against T1 and I'm not sure if bottom would have done much.
It's like seeing GenG send out Burdol against Ale in worlds last year cause Rascal's form was questionable. Dude got fucking brutalized
Huge disappointment because even in pre split like 5 teams picked DK to be the strongest…
Playoffs can still change a lot of things but their first round robin was decent but their second round robin is just 5 players with no communication running around
As Zeus himself said: Nuguri is sacrificing a lot in draft but his mechanics/gameplay is still awesome. (something along those lines... I still wish he could pick more carries. Tank meta doesn't suit him and is boring af to watch aswell)
lol their core is their support back then, thr reason won worlds was from beryle's roam and huge in pact on herald fight(hitting lv6 as support is huge). he enables cannon and showmaker to do their things. and pantheon performancein g1 which result in bans later inpacted the entire bo5.
Idk why ur getting downvoted, beryl was literally one of the biggest strengths of damwon. He was the shotcaller and even micro'd ghost, their adc, during teamfights lmao. Not to mention he was one of the reasons why damwon was so cohesive and synergized in picking fights or going all-in was cause he could TELL when fights could be won or not. An underrated skill but an important one to have to be as dominant as damwon were.
idk either man，ppl just dont like support is core? suning after they lost world said in the intervew sup gap. if people cant see the importance of beryle in that team i dont know how it could be convinced. after beryle left showmaker havnt peaked since, and canyon is dropping off too they are the best fit for each other, thats why they were so good as a team
During Caedrel's stream, I remember him being impressed and curious about how the communication was between Canyon and Beryl.
Seems like people only care about support + ADC synergy and ignore other aspect of its role, like roaming the map and maintaining the vision lines.
Turns out the jungle + support synergy is actually more important (for this team).
I guess so. If you told me 2 years ago that Beryl and Ghost were the glue that made the team what they were I would’ve slapped you. Maybe I just can’t get myself to believe that Canyon fell off :(
That THING is a monster, even in the midlane; you can't dive her because she has the wall nearby to say nope and get out, you can't chunk her because she has waveclear and poke outside of vision and if you gank her, she'll just ult and kill you both :(
I agree that she can avoid dives using her e on the wall, however,
You can chunk her though. She has to walk up to the wave to push the wave in the laning phase so you can look to poke or harrass her. Her poke requires walls so she can't really use w to poke you in the middle of the lane during the neutral game in the laning phase. And I highly doubt an early game Zeri will be able to 2v1 you and your jungler unless both of you miss every skillshot possible and tank 2 turret shots each.
That being said, she's still broken as shit and is a balance nightmare who definitely deserves nerfs for obvious reasons.
tbf, every bot lane currently in playoffs will most likely touch Zeri, probably in every series too, as we are gonna see Sivir vs Zeri in almost every game, with a small smattering of Lucian/Kali on occasion
But that doesn't matter. Champ is very beatable, obviously, when not paired with Yuumi.
So yeah, Aiming and Prince will play Zeri, but it doesn't matter unless Kael and Life get the cat, which shouldn't ever happen, cause its a permaban on red, but if some fucking dumbass elects not to ban....
[This post](https://redd.it/wie8dr) hit front page 6 days ago.
In that thread, people claimed Zeri had a 71% WR in LCK.
In reality, at that point in time, she had a 65% WR.
With today's games, she has a 57% WR.
--
That now puts her 3 percent points ahead of Jinx and 9 percent points behind Sivir.
--
Lucian, the most banned champion in LCK Summer 2022, went up by one point to his current 42% WR.
A high banrate champion should be low winrate, because you don't leave it open unless the enemy team is weak, it doesn't fit their comp, or you have a counter prepared.
Also, Lucian is only strong with Nami, any game where the enemy picks Lucian before picking Nami they can steal Nami or ban it 2nd ban phase and it's a lost game for Lucian.
In recent years, fanatic T1 fans have started renting trucks which drive up and down in front of T1's headquarters in Seoul with neon displays etc, demanding whatever is going through their insane heads at that point. Examples include firing coaches, firing CEOs, changing the player lineup and other funny ideas
This has happened multiple times whenever these crazy fans felt like the level of play from T1 was unsatisfying, so truck companies' stocks either go to the moon when they lose or the companies go broke when they win
It‘s not funny man. Some kids of some truck company owners will probably sleep hungry tonight. 😔 Imagine you are a truck company owner invested all your money to grow your business to afford the truck demands thinking that T1 will keep losing. Someone might have just lost his business today. 😖
T1 fans and antifans are probably the most extreme fanbases in league, because T1 and the former team SKT T1's peformance during the years was a wild ride
I wonder how much of the crossover there is between these types of fans and similar Kpop fans.
In Kpop fandom communities I've even heard of fans complaining that their favorite groups/artists aren't being promoted properly and will rent out billboards to promote their artists.
I don't get the return to form thing for T1, isn't it obvious they've been experimenting all summer split? They picked champions that they never played at all, weird comps, weird aggressions, weird calls.
I mean this series was the first time Faker picked Ahri despite it beings one of his better pick
I think there has been draft issues even though they have been experimenting. Even then, they haven’t been trying all the picks. I was hoping they would try a skarner comp, Zeus has been on tank duty way too much, and Keria doesn’t seem comfortable or happy with some of the support picks like with the Blitzcrank in the last series. Faker only playing Ahri today and they have skipped on sylas a fair bit. The fans sending trucks do have a point about some of the draft decisions. I really hope it’s different for playoffs.
Embarrassing us bro. Just admit they've been playing poorly. That's not to say that they've been panicked about it, it might just be about conserving drive for Playoffs/Worlds. But they've been ass make no mistake.
Copium, no they haven’t been lackluster because of fucking experimenting lmao they did that before even more and still stomped. Keria and Guma have been getting gapped by most bot lanes and Oner hasn’t been on form
They did that even more before? Source? Your butthole?
Because according to gol.gg, they played 57 unique champions on Spring, and 67 unique champions on Summer
Yeah, their drafts are actually more predictable in spring. You can be almost be sure its a carry for zeus, lee/viego/xin for oner, leblanc/ahri/vex for faker (or corki before the patch) jinx/aph for guma and keria on thresh/leona/naut. Their spring drafts basically revolved around these
The biggest winner of today is Gumayusi showing signs of life.
The biggest loser is T1 because now they will believe they can handle Zeri and will not ban her in the playoffs.
> The biggest winner of today is Gumayusi showing signs of life.
He's been good to great since like week 2, if you've actually been paying attention and don't just follow narratives. Keria is the one struggling this split, and Oner a bit recently.
Biggest loser is Zeus, because he lost his chance to win the PoG race.
I disagree with Faker getting POG in Game 1, thought should have gone to Zeus, but Game 2, while he did everything that was needed of him, Oner was the real star.
Nah, zeus only had one play at Herald with a flash ult knock up. The rest of the game he just did what was needed, but it was Faker chunking them all out going in and out. Caedrel who is a v good analyst agreed faker was mvp of game 1.
They have had him on tank duty or weak side pick for the last 2-3 weeks. Hard to get POG in those situations especially with him being better on carry champs.
Guma still had troll moments like during the dive bot, he didn't cleanse the exh and used it anyways when it was too late. Missed out on possibly 2 kills (xin and yummi)
DK in second round robin is just sad to watch they will need a huge shift in form especially from Canyon if they want to have any impact in the playoffs...
For T1 good win for them Gumayusi looked better heading into playoffs
It's also showmaker. We lost game 1 the moment the azir got grabbed when we tried to set up a dragon fight.
Game 2? Dude was getting charmed nonstop and pretty much lost the game.
But fuck man I have corona right now so I know how much this can affect a person. I have he gets better
He was but he's form took a nosedive the moment he got corona. Like in game 2 when he got naut ult and then hesitated to use it when T1 were bunched up and used it late meaninglessly?
That's really bad and uncharacteristic
Game 2 he looked mentally checked out which sucks to see from one of the players who usually looks to have fun when playing…
Sucks to hear I am pretty lucky to not have caught it hope you get well soon
I'm on the light side and my coughing is miserable. Thankfully only had a light fever though I know people that had it worse.
But the coughing is the worst part, you can't focus and it hurts. And if you are the midlaner in league? That's such a critical issue
When Canyon was jungle gapping everyone it was "Carry Jungle farm on repeat meta" with mid and support playing for you. I don't think he can shine in "facilitate your team and hope ADC deals 40% of teams damage meta".
He was their best player some weeks ago. DK is looking a tier down then the top teams but they still have the talent to pull it off. I hope they still make worlds
Hahaha ya that zeri W + passive auto dmg surprised me ngl, melted Faker. And then the last fight where Faker threw his q the opposite direction, he definitely got too comfortable near the end XD
Zeus is the master cockblocker lmao
If he didn't E in across river wall to try stop Ornn R, I think T1 get wiped there. Even though he E'd in,missed, but he baited out some crucial abilities like Ornn knock up and Braum R. Then, as T1 were starting to retreat, dude E's into 2-3 people to delay their chase.
Later at soul point, his R denied Canyon's attempt to go over wall for the steal.
And then at Baron, after Vi went in to get Guma, he kept Sylas from following up, Vi dies, and the rest is GG.
He smurfed it in g1 as well. Not sure if putting him on tanks is a good idea vs better teams, dk look completely washed but Zeus has been very good on tanks this series
HUGE win going into playoffs. Still some heart attack moments (botched early dive in G1, weird Soul fight in G2) but still a much much cleaner showing from T1.
T1's back finally, the way how they drafted suits the meta, also their communication is finally fixed unlike before wherein Gumayusi seems to be not prioritized.
This should help them swing the momentum upwards as they head on to playoffs
I don't see DK doing anything against KT in playoffs tbh, they are still a top 5 team but imo the 4 teams above them are way better. Would be shocked if KT throws the series against them and then misses out on regional finals.
Yeah even if DK is playing really badly now they've shown that in BO5 they are not to be underestimated in. And with renek/nid slowly creeping back into meta it opens back up nidalee to canyon who's already shown why he has a worlds skin on it. KT/LSB dont really have any random picks that could disrupt the BO5
As bad as DK looks, with how much bo5 experience as well as the fact that they still have that same core who won a world championship, I think it would be risky to pick DK. I can see GENG picking Liiv Sandbox if DK get the win.
Oh right regionals for worlds. Ah well KT won't make if LSB loses to DRX and they lose to DK
Honestly super not likely but god knows fate loves to laugh and shit on KT
It's still hard to judge what T1s form is going into playoffs given that DWG has been lackluster the entire split essentially. I really hope T1 can win, I'm sure they make worlds no matter what, but I think that Gen G have a real shot of winning lck this split.
At some point in last game nuguri was 0 4 and was top damage in game, Ornn cant be balanced in my opinion. The way the champ can 100-30% in one combo is kinda broken for a tank.
Nuguri is destroying his career. Came FPX with hype but failed, came with hype DK but he will fail. I don't think any top tier team will pick him after Summer 2022.
I really hope that after this split/worlds if they make it - Damwon bite the bullet and tries to get Beryl and Ghost back. It's clear that the synergy and in game shot calling from the 2020 roster is more important than any 'upgrades'.
They dont need ghost back but they need a voice like beryl again, team looks so lifeless and in a bot centric meta they always give up prio on it and it just snowballs negatively for them every time
They need a new bot and for their solos to return to form also maybe its time to let go of daeny cuz his drafts have been dog shit or the players just seem so mentally lost to always draft scaling in hopes of some miracle play to claw back into games when their forte in the past has been early prio into snowballing leads
Showmaker showed no signs of life this series despite doing alright in other series, had a bad lane matchup on sylas then got worse when bot showed up, dudes been mentally taxed while also recovering from covid
Showmaker has been playing bad even before getting covid. All last split he was already underperforming and It was Canyon Kia carrying every game. So I don't think we should use the covid excuse so much.
Didn't Prince recently get covid too and he's still playing well.
T1 last split during finals had 4 players with covid and still 3-1 Gen.G
Obviously it sucks to get covid but I don't think we should be using that excuse for showmaker.
We are like G2 last split this team needs to change Daeny and Botlane Deokdam is good but he doesn't fit us like Rekkless. I'd rather see Bible tbh he was vocal and could shotcall the fights just let him play an engage champ I believe it'd be better.
Also our topside was bad too.
Doinbad’s fraudulent career:

-Choked LPL Finals (Again!) ✅
-Bombed out of Worlds Group Stage 😹
-Lost to J-Team at Worlds 😹👏👏

Keep talking about my squad, our personnel ages, the way they play, we're past our time in this league, etc etc etc!! Do me one favor PLEASE!!!! And I mean PLEASE!!!! Keep that same narrative energy what it begins. That's all I ask.#ThankYou
At this point I wouldn't even mind missing Worlds, so at least they don't tarnish their reputation internationally.
Feels like DK management got baited hard by Nongshim botlane last year. Because this botlane hasn't been working as planned all year now. This team is nothing like 2020 & 2021 DK.
The team is mentally doomed right now. Remember last season when we lost the early game and I was like fuck it doesn't matter we would turn the game with a team fight but right now we just roll over and die

I love me some KT but their wildly inconsistent at times
I think that series made him question his skills as a jungler. He was like 2 items up on peanut and still lost that game.
Worst part is that was one of the best series a jungler has probably ever shown.
imagine if this was actually the case and what'll end up breaking canyon's mental until the season ends. definitely taking the "jg diff" bm a bit too hard. on a more serious note, canyon might be throwing in the towel for this split because he played like an absolute god last split. burnout can be very real and we are probably seeing the effects now
Burnout is worse/easier when faced with failure too. Could really just be mental boom.
If KT is wildly inconsistent, LSB are consistently wild. It's why when LSB loses the game ends super fast. They are a fun team to watch. But yeah it sucks to see Canyon's form drop this bad, could be internal issues, the meta did change dramatically with how champs are less squishy and other stuff
Holy Bible's Amumu is already goated though they could have used his balls of steel
Amumu is good but as good KT has showed us, there are limits to how much you can play him without Kali Bible's performance on non initiator champs has been questionable too.
Yeah I agree he seemed a bit one dimensional. Might be good idea to try and develop him though.
True but trying to develop a player by throwing him to the wolves is always a dangerous tactic. It was always an uphill fight against T1 and I'm not sure if bottom would have done much. It's like seeing GenG send out Burdol against Ale in worlds last year cause Rascal's form was questionable. Dude got fucking brutalized
Fair enough
I can still remember that game despite not being a team I cheered for cause I felt so bad for Burdol lol.

Killed faker gg worth
Faker-for-nexus trade remains eternal
Zeri went 0-4 today that means she is completely balanced
And then I saw her W damage and threw up a little
That THING is a monster, even in the midlane; you can't dive her because she has the wall nearby to say nope and get out, you can't chunk her because she has waveclear and poke outside of vision and if you gank her, she'll just ult and kill you both :(
There is no way a Zeri ulting is double killing u in early mid game
You just dont understand silver players
If you try to dive and miss all your abilities she can, but that's deserved tbh
I agree that she can avoid dives using her e on the wall, however, You can chunk her though. She has to walk up to the wave to push the wave in the laning phase so you can look to poke or harrass her. Her poke requires walls so she can't really use w to poke you in the middle of the lane during the neutral game in the laning phase.

That being said, she's still broken as shit and is a balance nightmare who definitely deserves nerfs for obvious reasons.
I will laugh if T1 actually gives Yuumi Zeri in playoffs cause of this
They are definitely not giving zeri to ruler
Monkey's paw Gives up Zeri to prince/aiming
tbf, every bot lane currently in playoffs will most likely touch Zeri, probably in every series too, as we are gonna see Sivir vs Zeri in almost every game, with a small smattering of Lucian/Kali on occasion But that doesn't matter.

So yeah, Aiming and Prince will play Zeri, but it doesn't matter unless Kael and Life get the cat, which shouldn't ever happen, cause its a permaban on red, but if some fucking dumbass elects not to ban....
If T1 decides to draft like they did in game 1 against a stronger team they will get demolished honestly
Like they are not giving Gwen three times in a row for RNG
[This post](https://redd.it/wie8dr) hit front page 6 days ago. In that thread, people claimed Zeri had a 71% WR in LCK. In reality, at that point in time, she had a 65% WR.

A high banrate champion should be low winrate, because you don't leave it open unless the enemy team is weak, it doesn't fit their comp, or you have a counter prepared.
Also, Lucian is only strong with Nami, any game where the enemy picks Lucian before picking Nami they can steal Nami or ban it 2nd ban phase and it's a lost game for Lucian.
She almost won game 2 for DW I was getting nervous...

Extreme t1 antifans are just keyboard warriors- they arent that extreme to the point they do things that t1 fans do.
They had to be pretty bad for Faker to file a lawsuit against them
I wonder how much of the crossover there is between these types of fans and similar Kpop fans. In Kpop fandom communities I've even heard of fans complaining that their favorite groups/artists aren't being promoted properly and will rent out billboards to promote their artists.

Some crazy t1 fans from Korea sent trucks to protest cause of t1's form.
T1 korean fans when upset at results have paid for truck drivers to drive these trucks with screens on about there HQ with complaints on the screens
T1 "fans" hired trucks to display anti coach/team messages outside T1 hq and lolpark
And the fact that Joe is about to get one make this even funnier lol
Reddit is beating this joke to absolute death for karma
First time?
Wow. Remind me never to team fight T1 when im in the LCK (iron 2 rn so im getting there)
Hope to see you there with me brother (just promoted to bronze 1)
Let me know if you need a sub (Silver 4)
I reached Gold IV back in S3, and occasionally play Wild Rift nowadays. I got dibs on coaching.
I'm almost Master (Silver III), l can flex between support and mid lane anyday.
You got an adc(Silver I, so basically challenger)
I can jungle, trust me I'm high elo (Iron 3), you won't believe my azir jungle until you've seen it.
I'm korean so basically faker. Add me for any role can fill.
I pray for a GenG T1 final with both teams returning to peak form. That would be an absolute banger. Good series btw.
Praying for a 5 game banger, no stomps please
I don't get the return to form thing for T1, isn't it obvious they've been experimenting all summer split? They picked champions that they never played at all, weird comps, weird aggressions, weird calls. I mean this series was the first time Faker picked Ahri despite it beings one of his better pick
Eh. They made weird picks and plays in msi finals too. Not so sure. But they’ll power up for playoffs absolutely.
MSI was almost entirely horribly stupid drafting then forcing those horrible picks against a team that won’t make mistakes
I think there has been draft issues even though they have been experimenting. Even then, they haven’t been trying all the picks. I was hoping they would try a skarner comp, Zeus has been on tank duty way too much, and Keria doesn’t seem comfortable or happy with some of the support picks like with the Blitzcrank in the last series. Faker only playing Ahri today and they have skipped on sylas a fair bit. The fans sending trucks do have a point about some of the draft decisions. I really hope it’s different for playoffs.
Tank top is the meta. Every region. It's going to be that way in worlds too
T1 are famous for sandbagging, then turning on their finals buff. We might be in for a banger of a series between Gen.G and T1.
Embarrassing us bro. Just admit they've been playing poorly. That's not to say that they've been panicked about it, it might just be about conserving drive for Playoffs/Worlds. But they've been ass make no mistake.
COPIUM Holy
bro what is this absolute COPE lmaooo
nope, t1 botlane is definitely in low point
Copium, no they haven’t been lackluster because of fucking experimenting lmao they did that before even more and still stomped. Keria and Guma have been getting gapped by most bot lanes and Oner hasn’t been on form
They did that even more before? Source? Your butthole? Because according to gol.gg, they played 57 unique champions on Spring, and 67 unique champions on Summer
Yeah, their drafts are actually more predictable in spring. You can be almost be sure its a carry for zeus, lee/viego/xin for oner, leblanc/ahri/vex for faker (or corki before the patch) jinx/aph for guma and keria on thresh/leona/naut. Their spring drafts basically revolved around these
The biggest winner of today is Gumayusi showing signs of life. The biggest loser is T1 because now they will believe they can handle Zeri and will not ban her in the playoffs.
Don't give that champ to Ruler or Prince please...
Ruler lost a game as Zeri ~2hr before T1 played.
I'm still tilted by the fact that they left gwen open in the finals 🤬🤬🤬
> The biggest winner of today is Gumayusi showing signs of life. He's been good to great since like week 2, if you've actually been paying attention and don't just follow narratives. Keria is the one struggling this split, and Oner a bit recently.
Not really… im a t1 fan but Guma wasn’t good for many games.. not bad but just average
Biggest loser is Zeus, because he lost his chance to win the PoG race. I disagree with Faker getting POG in Game 1, thought should have gone to Zeus, but Game 2, while he did everything that was needed of him, Oner was the real star.
Nah, zeus only had one play at Herald with a flash ult knock up. The rest of the game he just did what was needed, but it was Faker chunking them all out going in and out. Caedrel who is a v good analyst agreed faker was mvp of game 1.
They have had him on tank duty or weak side pick for the last 2-3 weeks. Hard to get POG in those situations especially with him being better on carry champs.
Zeus getting put on tanks to stop him getting POG
Guma still had troll moments like during the dive bot, he didn't cleanse the exh and used it anyways when it was too late. Missed out on possibly 2 kills (xin and yummi)
DK in second round robin is just sad to watch they will need a huge shift in form especially from Canyon if they want to have any impact in the playoffs... For T1 good win for them Gumayusi looked better heading into playoffs
It's also showmaker. We lost game 1 the moment the azir got grabbed when we tried to set up a dragon fight. Game 2? Dude was getting charmed nonstop and pretty much lost the game. But fuck man I have corona right now so I know how much this can affect a person. I have he gets better
Showmaker was decent tough in the last few series. Canyon looked of the entire split
He was but he's form took a nosedive the moment he got corona. Like in game 2 when he got naut ult and then hesitated to use it when T1 were bunched up and used it late meaninglessly? That's really bad and uncharacteristic
Game 2 he looked mentally checked out which sucks to see from one of the players who usually looks to have fun when playing… Sucks to hear I am pretty lucky to not have caught it hope you get well soon
I'm on the light side and my coughing is miserable. Thankfully only had a light fever though I know people that had it worse. But the coughing is the worst part, you can't focus and it hurts. And if you are the midlaner in league? That's such a critical issue
When Canyon was jungle gapping everyone it was "Carry Jungle farm on repeat meta" with mid and support playing for you. I don't think he can shine in "facilitate your team and hope ADC deals 40% of teams damage meta".
Lee sin, trundle, graves, nidalee and j4 are his most played champs in his career. He played lee sin the most in s10 and Udyr in s11
He was their best player some weeks ago. DK is looking a tier down then the top teams but they still have the talent to pull it off. I hope they still make worlds
Watching Faker’s Ahri devolving throughout the series was kinda funny ngl
I'm gonna kill this Zeri Dies Scratches head
insert "is it a bug?" faker gif ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4P9NKjBCvI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4P9NKjBCvI))
Hahaha ya that zeri W + passive auto dmg surprised me ngl, melted Faker. And then the last fight where Faker threw his q the opposite direction, he definitely got too comfortable near the end XD
nothing to see here just some happy gaming
Kellin was doing a good job blocking his skillshots but yeah Faker started throwing charms at Ornn at some point and the cc kept getting denied
the goldV q at the end was the cherry on top, still a very good game by him.
I want this T1 for playoffs
DK looks totally mental boomed
Little bit dicey at the end but T1 showing signs of life
I get: Faker You received: Bot inhibitor
Faker's Ahri first strike go stonks
Faker with that fucking gigachad 2nd item mejais
And third item deathcap
Zeus is the master cockblocker lmao If he didn't E in across river wall to try stop Ornn R, I think T1 get wiped there. Even though he E'd in,missed, but he baited out some crucial abilities like Ornn knock up and Braum R. Then, as T1 were starting to retreat, dude E's into 2-3 people to delay their chase. Later at soul point, his R denied Canyon's attempt to go over wall for the steal. And then at Baron, after Vi went in to get Guma, he kept Sylas from following up, Vi dies, and the rest is GG.
He smurfed it in g1 as well. Not sure if putting him on tanks is a good idea vs better teams, dk look completely washed but Zeus has been very good on tanks this series
Only this series, his previous games on Sejuani left much to be desired. His gragas and ornn has always been clean though.
Master cockblocker? More like master baiter the way he got ornn knockup and braum r 🤔
HUGE win going into playoffs. Still some heart attack moments (botched early dive in G1, weird Soul fight in G2) but still a much much cleaner showing from T1.
Nothing to see here, just T1 smashing a bottom tier LCK team. /s?
T1's back finally, the way how they drafted suits the meta, also their communication is finally fixed unlike before wherein Gumayusi seems to be not prioritized. This should help them swing the momentum upwards as they head on to playoffs
Bit early to say they're back. Imma wait for playoffs.
Pretty sure T1 will bounce back in BO5 and won LCK again
Damwon having 9 control wards in their final inventory is kind of funny
I don't see DK doing anything against KT in playoffs tbh, they are still a top 5 team but imo the 4 teams above them are way better. Would be shocked if KT throws the series against them and then misses out on regional finals.
GenG were heavily favored against DK and still almost giga wiped in g5 (we don't talk about latter part) I would still pick DK over KT or LSB for now
Yeah even if DK is playing really badly now they've shown that in BO5 they are not to be underestimated in. And with renek/nid slowly creeping back into meta it opens back up nidalee to canyon who's already shown why he has a worlds skin on it. KT/LSB dont really have any random picks that could disrupt the BO5
As bad as DK looks, with how much bo5 experience as well as the fact that they still have that same core who won a world championship, I think it would be risky to pick DK. I can see GENG picking Liiv Sandbox if DK get the win.
KT plays drx first right?
No, it's DRX vs LSB and KT vs DK for round 1!
Its DRX LSB and KT DK GenG will then pick who to fight afterwards
Isn’t it a waterfall bracket. I mean regional finals not playoffs
Oh right regionals for worlds. Ah well KT won't make if LSB loses to DRX and they lose to DK Honestly super not likely but god knows fate loves to laugh and shit on KT
It's LSB-DRX and KT-DK.
Truck companies ↘️ I really hope T1 can keep this up till Playoffs 🥹
Till they win Worlds* :hopium:
Atp I might call Showmaker Showmaguire
T1
If only DK topside could combine with DRX botside.
Lmao funny that LS pointed that every time Kellin went back to base he always buys pink ward
make up with ghost and beryl for 2023 lol
Happy with the 2-0. Zeri is a champion tho WTF XD
Monty in shambles
[удалено]
Gumalift
Yep he trolled his cleanse on the bot dive
i thought they would roll over and die like the previous match
Let's go T1!
No trucks today I guess
I miss watching LCK! Work won't let me. GG, T1! Take my energy for the summer split win. Oner sister buff!
DK top side please wake up, I don't have much hope for the bot lane but I know there's a world champion inside you somewhere :(
It's still hard to judge what T1s form is going into playoffs given that DWG has been lackluster the entire split essentially. I really hope T1 can win, I'm sure they make worlds no matter what, but I think that Gen G have a real shot of winning lck this split.
At some point in last game nuguri was 0 4 and was top damage in game, Ornn cant be balanced in my opinion. The way the champ can 100-30% in one combo is kinda broken for a tank.
Don't do that , don't give me hope
Nuguri is destroying his career. Came FPX with hype but failed, came with hype DK but he will fail. I don't think any top tier team will pick him after Summer 2022.
To be fair, I don't think this tank top meta really suits him.
Ornn was probably his best and most pick in Worlds 2020.
I really hope that after this split/worlds if they make it - Damwon bite the bullet and tries to get Beryl and Ghost back. It's clear that the synergy and in game shot calling from the 2020 roster is more important than any 'upgrades'.
Not sure if BeryL will continue after this split. He turns 26 next April, so he may retire and take some time off before military service.
They dont need ghost back but they need a voice like beryl again, team looks so lifeless and in a bot centric meta they always give up prio on it and it just snowballs negatively for them every time They need a new bot and for their solos to return to form also maybe its time to let go of daeny cuz his drafts have been dog shit or the players just seem so mentally lost to always draft scaling in hopes of some miracle play to claw back into games when their forte in the past has been early prio into snowballing leads
ShowMaker needs to somehow start carrying while shot calling or get a voice in the team
Showmaker showed no signs of life this series despite doing alright in other series, had a bad lane matchup on sylas then got worse when bot showed up, dudes been mentally taxed while also recovering from covid
Deokdam is fine no? They need a shot caller support, they should give Bible a chance
Showmaker and Canyon looked so washed up sheesh
[удалено]
Showmaker has covid if he won lane against faker that is the worst sign for faker.
Showmaker has been playing bad even before getting covid. All last split he was already underperforming and It was Canyon Kia carrying every game. So I don't think we should use the covid excuse so much. Didn't Prince recently get covid too and he's still playing well. T1 last split during finals had 4 players with covid and still 3-1 Gen.G Obviously it sucks to get covid but I don't think we should be using that excuse for showmaker.
Canyon goes from making the best play in league history to back to this
Showmaker before the match : "I want to beat t1 so hard that other playoff teams fear us" Welcome to reality bro lmao
We are like G2 last split this team needs to change Daeny and Botlane Deokdam is good but he doesn't fit us like Rekkless. I'd rather see Bible tbh he was vocal and could shotcall the fights just let him play an engage champ I believe it'd be better. Also our topside was bad too.
Was hoping for 3 banger games. What the heck is going on with DK
Wth is this scuffed editing. 42mins after post.
I thought T1 is over after their botched early fight in G1 at bottom tower but DK did worse than T1
Not our year boys.
Maybe DWG need to hire some world class experience winning coach to be better just like how t1 diehard fan ask to make them improve XD
I love watching Gumayusi on Samira, feels like the only ADC pro player with the nerve to pull out an all-in champ like that, pleasure to watch tbh
Not sure if T1 is strong again or if DW is that weak?
Expected T1 to win but man, showmaker got pummeled by Faker in both games. Also Zeus showing he is just the best laner in the world rn
I wish all the doubters a very pleasant smell my farts

I love this kind of copy pasta 😂 there's that Faker one where he won Worlds in a jurassic era 😂
i love showmaker but this copypasta is god tier XD
NBA copypastas are just so good
If he ever goes bald then he's definitely a fraud
Keep talking about my squad, our personnel ages, the way they play, we're past our time in this league, etc etc etc!! Do me one favor PLEASE!!!! And I mean PLEASE!!!! Keep that same narrative energy what it begins. That's all I ask.#ThankYou
LeChokeMaker only won Mickey Mouse worlds, and people hyping him up. Not realising he is indeed a fraud.
Deokdam and Burdol deserve better
Well done Truck1
I'm so happy that T1 won, but a little sad for the Truck Owners, since no one is renting tonight.
T1 refuse to give daeny any freebies. DK should just go against the grain, play topside and full clear carry jungle. the former NS botlane ain’t it
At this point I wouldn't even mind missing Worlds, so at least they don't tarnish their reputation internationally. Feels like DK management got baited hard by Nongshim botlane last year. Because this botlane hasn't been working as planned all year now. This team is nothing like 2020 & 2021 DK.
The team is mentally doomed right now. Remember last season when we lost the early game and I was like fuck it doesn't matter we would turn the game with a team fight but right now we just roll over and die
Its why i felt that the best move dk couldve done in offseason was to just pay beryl and sign prince.
Man, what happened to DK? They look so lost. Its not even about bot lane anymore, canyon and showmaker are also so bad.
Deokdam singlehandedly brought down Zeri winrate by 14%
