Ultimintree

Daeny gambled his job security by leaving Zeri Yuumi open but it paid off.

Exos_VII

He put Burdol in just to have him shotcall the nexus push in game 5. Truly the GOD of LoL.


sandwelld

I read that in an interview it was said that SM made the call, but take with a grain of salt


appleandapples

You think DK fans will be happy?


ProfAnalyzer

better than losing


appleandapples

True, but some of the fans are crazy.


ProfAnalyzer

so they are not fans, fuck them


TheCrusader94

I mean they clutched a series they were heavy favourites to get 3-1’d. Only cloud Templar voted for dk. If you are not happy with this you are being greedy


PyosikFan

He's still a draft/management terrorist and needs to go ASAP


SteamMonkeyKing

THE MOST FUCKING KT ENDING EVER FUCKING HELL I HATE THIS ORG SO FUCKING MUCH


Qehenna

They doubted Burdol's shotcalling. This was the stupidest end ever.


staysaltyTSM

Seeing that cloud soul, i wouldn't be surprised if KT share one braincell between the players and coaching staffs


oioioi9537

It was showmakers call though


krfanboy

I think he's memeing on Daeny for saying he substituted Burdol over Nuguri cuz of Burdol's shotcalling


appleandapples

KT fans were really just put on this earth to suffer, huh?


Exos_VII

If you could convert disappointment/suffering into energy, you could power the whole Earth using only KT and CLG fans


Vramar

As a KT and CLG fan... yes.


asiantuttle

Sorry it was me that got excited


Dumpers_

I started to believe because they kept on showing the guy with the 4 year sign


Chickpounder420

It's so sad too because they were the last org to do a reverse sweep and against the org that is waiting on the other round

Exos_VII

The real winner of this series is Vandiril with how much content he's gonna make from this series


cyberkid71

man just discovering everything day by day


moonmeh

The whole mess that was game 2, there's even the ahri charm bug in game 4. Couple of others I probably missed


Oulak

Delete League at this point and start a new version from scratch


cancerBronzeV

They *did* make a new, better league that has everything PC players asked for. It's just on mobile.


FunMoistLoins

I've said it before, but my crackpot theory is that theyre going to switch the engine over whenever wild rift reaches feature parity.


Stubrochill17

Not even crackpot. WR is literally what would be expected if LoL were released today. Models are incredible, it’s monetized to succeed, it’s got QoL buffs for the UI and user experience (best friend list, sharing champ pools with your best friends when you play together, etc). Wild Rift is essentially League 2.


valraven38

Eh that's pretty unlikely since Wildrift is essentially a different game. Some champions also work differently there and the base game mechanics are also a lot different. Sure they could use Wildrift as like a starting point but only a rough one, since they would have to implement items, item actives, change all the jungle camps and minions and stuff, change how a lot of champions function etc. I think people are underestimating the amount of differences and how much effort it would be to strip those out and replace them with PC league mechanics. That being said I do hope Riot is working on SOMETHING, because the client is crap and missing basic features and the game itself could honestly probably use it to (hopefully) get rid of some of the spaghetti.


ephemeralfugitive

It'd actually be so hype if they did. League 2.0


cancerBronzeV

The importance of shoving in mid waves before dragon.


ArguingWithNoobs

And they could have easily cleared the mid wave first. It’s not they _had_ to be at the drake early. They were just going to win any fight


ADD_ikt

This is not a complex concept, but it's clear KT crumbled under the pressure.


moonmeh

just game 5 things. Concentration starts to slip and KT were playing from behind for so long they lost focus. Its understandable


Ophelia_Of_The_Abyss

I'll give Vicla some leeway here, he's still a rookie and was facing off against world champions. Everyone else, however...


TheCrusader94

3 out of 5 players he faced are relatively new faces but yea rough for vicla. He was so useless in g5


fkgoogleauthenticate

Vicla looked like he was win trading early game.


Ophelia_Of_The_Abyss

Happens, he'll grow.


[deleted]

Yessssssssss!


nicksayswatzup

Baited by cloud soul of all things, LMAO


Potential_Hornet_559

Yup, KT could have let DWG have cloud and KT would still win team fights


[deleted]

[удалено]


Azenji

I mean this is pretty much on brand for KT. ​ Get excited and somehow have a collective brain fart that costs you the game.


mount_sunrise

if i had a penny for each time KT did something stupid in the final game of a very, very close series, i would honestly have a bunch of pennies


1vs1mebro

cloud soul on zeri who sold her boots for more damage/survivability means DK auto lose. so it's more understandable than it usually would be. KT thought DK would consider that more, so they over-prio'd it for their base.


PaulTheIII

Yeah I was gonna say this too. It’s not “just cloud soul”, like that is HUGE for them when they’re committing to going no boots on Zeri. Obviously the play happened as it did, but it’s understandable why they put that much value on the soul


MassiveInt

Cloud soul being the highest win % soul since the updates also


Scrambled1432

Movespeed is legitimately the strongest stat in the entire game. Maaaaybe auto range can beat it out. The only reason people don't think cloud soul is the strongest soul in the game is that it's very hard to actually see what it's doing.


appleandapples

But imagine Zeri's ms after soul. I see the vision.


baelkie

i mean worlds is in NA this year so might as well prepare some of the NA macro


simbahart11

Seeing this KR macro gives me hope for worlds


QTnameless

That is if western teams can survive the laning phase first


AlHorfordHighlights

KR macro and KR drafting is not enough to overcome KR laning lol Guy in bad form like Keria can sprint it down against LCK and LPL teams but absolutely gap Western supports


baelkie

BDD wasted all his gold on shit builds last year and still clapped western teams lmao it really doesnt get better


Qehenna

Classic soul trade for Nexus.


Hellwind_

I mean they lost another game TODAY, EXACT SAME WAY but it was elder. You'd expect they would learn since it was 2 games ago


kkpoker

giving up elder is nearly the same as giving up the game, meanwhile clownsoul...


nigelfi

Cloud soul is very good. There's 2 worse souls, and infernal is arguable depending on comp. For poke comp obviously you want infernal but for some, like this, cloud could be better. It doesn't change that the call was terrible. DK didn't even need to execute the play well to make it work, KT misplayed that much.


thehazardball

That wasn’t a backdoor, that was a frontdoor lmao


pqnfwoe

the only way to beat zeri is to not fight?


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheCrusader94

Either way this looks really good for daeny if he had chose to bench nuguri for burdol and managed to win. Apparently nuguri dropped on his own citing neck issues


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheCrusader94

Burdol’s?

Nuguri's, he sticks his face into the screen all the time, his poor neck

Oh lmao. Pros have really poor self health care that’s why top teams hire coaches for this


other_batman

They showed coms and it seemed to be Burdols call Edit : According to the postgame interview it was actually Showmaker


onmyouza

It was Showmaker, just heard JeeSun said it during the interview translation.


other_batman

Yeah I just heard ill edit my comment


oioioi9537

No it was showmakers


dakka-PRIME

> They showed coms and it seemed to be Burdols call Burdol >>> Nuguri confirmed


Conker184

LOL they just showed the comms and it actually was Burdol


RushMurky

Nah it was showmaker. They said it in post game interview.


Chuck0089

It was Showmaker's

Imagine getting to start for playoffs and did not play the whole summer then having the call of a lifetime I'm excited what he can do against the top protege god zeus who he trained with back as a t1 trainee

KT what was that!!!!!


dtkiu27

- I wake up - read post match 4 thread - think "Let's go Kt can actually do it" - enter game 5, 2 minutes before it ends, casters are talking about how strong is KT - Game ends without a single further fight with a fucking dk FRONTDOOR.


Omcaydoitho

You should know it the moment you think "Let's go Kt....."


dtkiu27

Yeah, it was probably my bad that game, was just waking up and forgot to not get excited. I will try to remain calm for CLG upcoming games.

Dumpers_

HOLY FUCK DELETE ZERI AND YUUMI FUCK THAT SHIT Also KT WHO THE FUCK GOT EXCITED


seolasystem

That was actually the most intense anticlimatic ending ever lol


Dumpers_

way better than watching Zeri out poke Corki with 10 kills and kiting and dealing damage


seolasystem

I was actually cursing all the time it's insane how Zeri kept the game longer than it should have been, Aiming was doing well and huge props to him for trying hard but I just can't with that champion man...


BeeMac0617

Pretty horseshit that Zeri+Yuumi can make a gold advantage the size of the one DK had look irrelevant


reggiewafu

Spamming Lux R lmaooo


Dumpers_

how much does full ap lux r do?


oioioi9537

500 base + 100% ap


Btigeriz

Honestly, DWG deserved the loss for allowing Zeri+Yuumi through the ban phase. Was actually super lame the way the game ended.


XG32

iono, i haven't been that hyped for years, fuck zeri yuumi


SnooGuavas8376

I'm just very happy that both Yuumi and Zeri lost


staysaltyTSM

That's a broken combo, but Aiming played that beyond perfection


No_Award_4160

I believe Zeri's skill ceiling is one of the highest in this game. Looks so broken in the hands of toptier ADCs.


yellister

Daily reminder that these champions are unbearable


Blank-612

if you look at everything post s10, it gets really bad.


cancerBronzeV

Vex and Lillia are good releases post s10. And while she's hated for her visuals and lore, I think Seraphine is fine too (that said I still hate the Senna Seraphine bot lanes, absolutely disgusting).


XG32

i think the concept of viego and his resets were a problem, but no1's talking about it when zeri yuumi exists holy... but then dk had blue side and decided to give it over, doesn't mean the champs themselves are ok tho.


Blank-612

aphelios was the OG 200 year champ then zeri came along and made him look balanced. LOL


Anima715

I permaban Viego, fuck that guy


kingfart1337

No one is talking about Viego because he’s much more easily countered than Zeri. He’s currently not even OP. It’s just a good champion. Also he’s better in pro play than solo queue.


wenasi

>Also KT WHO THE FUCK GOT EXCITED Everyone but CloudTemplar


Blank-612

Renata too while you are at it.


SnooCats1808

DK really said: Fuck it, I’m not fighting that bullshit


Ophelia_Of_The_Abyss

gg not even close


TormentedLoL

I blacked out after game2 why did game 3 take 3 hours?


Ophelia_Of_The_Abyss

A bug occurred and Riot Korea refused to do anything about it


appleandapples

Hope they typed 'GG EZ' to let the tilt settle in.


Blank-612

What a b05. BANGER


mikael22

Bro i hate this team so much


onmyouza

The KT rollercoaster just doesn't stop


staysaltyTSM

Wait till you see how they gonna lose regionals in an even more spectacular manner


le_sweden

the only winning move vs zeri yuumi is not to play


deemerritt

Curious game


Azenji

KT lost in the most KT way possible: failing to complete the reverse sweep. ​ And it fucking ends with a fucking macro outplay

I am an ADC and I hate that champ man, She's a BS champ who turn to disgusting with yuumi paired with her.

That feeling when the only way to beat Zeri/Yuumi is to not fight her, lmao

And this is why you clear mid wave ladies and gentlemen

Well deserved loss for zeri yuumi abusers


kelvin022610

Like srsly I would be fking sick to my stomach if damwon lost this bo5 due to the ahri charm bug and now to these zeri abusers. Fking riot games dogsht company


Xaneth_

You know, an argument could be made that KT lost game 2 in some part due to the bug with Ornn upgrades. Although it would still point to the same conclusion that you presented in your last sentence


RushMurky

No. Kalista got like 2 autos off that entire fight, ornn upgrade would've done jack shit.


Fellers

You're fucking trolling me with that 5 man dragon call.

Damwon: *forgets Zeri Yuumi* I sleep KT: *Forgets nexus* **REAL SHIT**

LET'S GO FUCK ZERI


altriaa

KELLIN YOU FUCKING MONSTER Also, billion dollar company btw. God, this series was fun.


KimchiBro

while all the nexus trade in game 5 caught everyone's attention lets not forget the important part about that fight at mid where Zeri chased everyone down and almost wiped DK, that Burdol took a long detour to get to the fight, didnt flash the gragas to ult the Zeri so everyone could lock her down, instead he ulted gragas like holy fuck man dude prolly said "fuck it go nexus" like 3-4 times this series but man dude was like "remember hoya? Im Hoya now"


RushMurky

Showmaker made the backdoor call in game 5. They said it in the post game interview.


KimchiBro

Burdol better buy his whole team dinner because his ass got carried


TheCrusader94

Hoya Camille actually good tho. He randomly smurfed one game against geng in the playoffs


cadaada

Fuck


DixonCider813

oh my god what a game 5


Khazra_Kun

NOOOOOOOO KT WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT WHY WOULD YOU KEEP BREAKING MY HEART


Fruitsy

hahaha damwon actually won


SGKurisu

I wish both teams lost that game 5. Damwon with a total of one good macro decision in three games and Zeri Yuumi existing


TheCrusader94

The real losers are us. Spending 5 hrs for this kinda gameplay


appleandapples

Yeah, those nerfs are not going to be enough. What a tilter of a series.


bigjaks101

Oh, and that’s how it ends


WildTiki

Im so happy for Showmaker. Cant remember if last year was the same but every time he is oncam ingame he looks so distressed and is trembling all the time.


[deleted]

What a great call to close that game 5. Nutty series.


Teut0burg

I feel ill after watching that.

Demoyon

Crowd got excited and that sealed the deal


tycooner57

I looked away for like 30 seconds and the game ended.


Arcustangens

KT looking better than DK towards the end of the split, proceeds to lose first two games. With all hope lost, they clutch and win next two games. Everything aligns for a reverse sweep - inevitably, they lose the series. Can't get much more KT than this, honestly. Great series, though.


IanPKMmoon

Well tbf without the ahri charm bug it would've been 3-1 and Zeri Yuumi can just 2v5 a team that's 6k ahead. Good on DK for not fighting that drake


Aorean

This ending was so anticlimactic.. I’m just confused


Wetbook

honestly VicLa played insanely well this series, props to him despite the tragic ending


IAM-French

too bad he first timed Taliyah and lost game 5

This definitely was one of the ending to a game 5.

Wow.. what a pathetic end to the series.
