The champ got turbo fucked in the lvl 1, and BelVeth is a minion from behind. That's why a Xin Zhao or Viego would have been better picks there, even if they want to go for the lvl 1 invade. The champs are useful even if that lvl 1 goes poorly

Faker was 2nd best mid in lck during spring split, so it would be hard to argue he wasnt top 5 during spring split. He is having bad tournament but that doesnt remove his spring split but if you ask thorin he is just bad because he isnt as good as the number 1 and 2 mid laners in the world he quite possible could have been 3rd this spring. Thorin's blind hate just too much.

I know TL isn't gonna win shit but what gives me hope for this team is that they've continued to improve, particularly Yeon. He was pretty terrible last year. This year, he stepped up a lot during regular season, then even more in playoffs, and then again so far at MSI. He's shown that he can learn new champions pretty quickly. I think that growth is really promising and I think the team really can do something with Yeon long term. APA I'm not sold on unless he massively improves the champion pool, but hey. If someone in LCS can actually properly play Lucian Nami, that's a huge draft advantage. Whereas I think this trip massively hurts Flyquest and their confidence going forward, I think it will have done the opposite for TL. I think summer will just come down to TL vs C9.

Yeah, I think G2 is getting overhyped here. They had a close series against an underperforming Faker and a T1 that seems a bit lost. I’m expecting TOP to 3-1 or 3-0 them. Creme’s even low performance will be enough to neutralize Caps and JL/Meiko are going to do work in the bot lane. Teams that do creative things to win matches have a hard time going very far in long tournaments because cheese and weird angles get figured out pretty quickly. If they do make it work though, big props to their coaching staff and the players for their flexibility.

​@@zohairkhan5755Your analysis is nonsensical, Creme has a "low performance" yet can "neutralise Caps" something that Faker (playing better than Creme right now) was struggling to do? Jackylove/Meiko will do the work, we need to look at the top side however, BB/Yike/Caps all look extremely strong.

@zohairkhan5755 tbh I was making the opposite point D: I think if the level one works out, they have a big chance of winning that game. I completely disagree with your reasoning on tes vs. g2, but funnily enough, I also believe that tes will 3-1 g2. My predicton is that the top side will get ahead significantly, but not enough to put jkl and meiko in the dirt and come mid game tes botlane is going to blow up g2 (to my disappointment since I am a eu baby 😢)

So is KC just speedrunning becoming the new TSM by signing Canna? They have already thrown one very good coach and one of the most talented players ever under the bus to protect their franchise players, they have no money but are signing way-past-their-prime imports, have cultivated one of the most unhinged fanbases in Europe, have an unlikable owner who's way to involved with the roster despite obviously lacking the knowledge and constantly complain about things being unfair (in their case it's 'racism', with TSM it was import rules). The only part they are missing is the one where TSM was at least pretty successful in their domestic tier 1 league for a few years.

Hey im a t1 fans and agree with most of your takes, but making almost every final that this roster has played in, I dont know if thats ever happened in league has to account for something, LCK 1st, msi 2nd, lck 2nd, worlds 2nd, lck 2nd msi 3rd lck 2nd worlds 1st and now lck 2nd.

Its their definition of winning everything which they only hold T1 to those standards, but overall if you take the aggregate placement through multiple tournaments and seasonal splits they consistently place higher than any other team. Yes the meta has to be hit them right to be the best but that is the case for any team that wins. If you take the top LPL and top LCK teams over the past 3 years. Yes they have had different rosters but looking at the top teams here are the results from the last 3 years going from ( spring 2024, worlds 2023, summer 2023, msi 2023, spring 2023, worlds 2022, summer 2022, msi 2022, spring 2022, worlds 2021 ( BLG: 1st, 3rd-4th, 3rd, 2nd, 2nd, DNQ, 9th-10th, DNQ, 7th-8th; DNQ; JDG: 3rd, 3rd-4th, 1st, 1st, 1st, 3rd-4th, 1st, 4th, DNQ, DNQ; EDG: 16th, 5th-6th, 3rd, DNQ, 3rd, 5th-8th, 3rd, DNQ, 7th-8th, 1st; LNG: 7th-8th, 5th-8th, 2nd, DNQ, 5th-6th, DNQ, 4th, DNQ, 5th-6th, 12th-13th; RNG: 14th, DNQ, 9th-10th, DNQ, 7th-8th, 5th-8th, 5th-6th, 1st, 1st, 5th-8th; GEN G: 1st, 5th-8th, 1st, 4th, 1st, 3rd-4th, 1st, DNQ, 2nd, 3rd-4th; T1: 2nd, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 2nd, 2nd, 2nd, 2nd, 1st, 3rd-4th; DK: 4th, 9th-11th, 5th, DNQ, 5th, 5th-8th, 4th, DNQ, 3rd, 2nd. ) JDG and GEN G have more 1st but also have lower placements at same tournaments compared to T1.

Chovy vs Knight is tge most forced (Knight)fan driven rivalry/comparison ever. It's not a thing. Last season, Ruler - who arguably had the strongest ADC season ever - was the superstar of JDG. This season Bin is the superstar of BLG and Elk+On - who were the best botlane in the world in spring - were the consistent carries. I had a good chuckle when the broadcast switched from the featured matchup being "Chovy vs Knight" to being "Chovy vs Bin" in the grand finals. I think that says enough about Knight.

Objectively and in theory should it be noteworthy that the LCS 1st seed beat the LEC 2nd seed? Of course not. But this is lolesports we're talking about. There is nothing noteworthy about NA, seeding is often handled poorly by Riot, and an LCS team will never win Worlds - whereas an LEC team has had the opportunity to do so twice, and continues to lord that over NA fans' heads. So yes, Team Liquid dumpstering Fnatic in 2024, the year of our Lord, is memorable and worthy of gloating. Have at it NA fans - but try to go easy on EU fans a bit. They're not used to misery and defeat as much as us, so they're a little bit shocked and sensitive right now.

I agree that "GOAT is all about looking at plays with name plates off and seeing which is best". The problem with that is I dont think Faker wins that. I think nameplates off, Chovy or Knight has to get it. Faker gets it purely on titles and intangibles, but Chovy and Knight have shown individual skill gaps against their peers that I think excede what Faker was doing in season 3. Which I think is even more impressive than what faker was doing in season 3, because as point out, the overall level is the highest it's ever been, and they keep consistantly doing it while Faker hasn't been able to since season 7. And more importantly, has Faker, at any point in time during the most competitive years of LoL, been the best individual player in the world? There's definitely been times when Chovy and Knight haven't, I think for large parts of 2023 Ruler had a very good shout for that title, but Faker hasn't come close. Also regarding "expoerts/people in the scene generally dont have omegahot takes cos other experts would dogpile them" I saw Doublelift literally say that dumpstering Faker in game 1 would be the highlight of MSI winner (probably soon to be 2x MSI winner) and multiple times LPL winner Knight's entire career. Also that FNC are better than top, predominantly from a bot gap.

To answer the "Has Faker, at any point in time during the most competitive years of LoL, been the best individual player in the world?" Question: Yes he has. That was from Summer Season 5 to Worlds Season 7. Right until the moment, when Rulers Varus Ult hit him... When he reached 3 straight Worlds finals and the gap between Faker and the rest was just... well, let me explain: There was this completly broken Champ in Season 5 named reworked Ryze. Everyone played it and looked good on it... well, except Faker, who didn't care. Then Riot nerfed it into the ground. They literally gave that champ the Yuumi treatment and said "Don't play it!". It had like a 42 % Winrate in Solo Que on that Worlds Patch. And that was exactly the moment, Faker decided to play this champ (and G4, a Wildcard team, picked it against Faker,). He went 5W-0L and picked it in the finals in a Lulu mid meta. No one else touched it. Faker then gets a solo kill in a 1vs2 against the RoxTigers. Think about that for a second: He could pick the arguably worst champion on the patch, that didn't fit into the meta at all and that noone else even looked at in the Worlds Final and he dominated on it. Just look for "Faker Ryze highlights Worlds 2015" and remember, that nobody back then understood, how Faker dealt that much damage on this champ. The other players had 4 weeks to practise the pick, after Faker had shown it early, but no one managed to pick it up. Oh and in 2016, he won MSI, IEM, Worlds and one of 2 LCK Splits. The year after the Ryze gap was even more succesfull. Then he dragged 4 corpses to the Worlds Final on Galio in 2017. And then he got hit by the Varus ult and never recovered...

@@PassivesAbseits Faker at his peak used to lock in shit like Riven and Master Yi mid and would be solo killing you under your turret. Players like Chovy, Knight and countless other top tier pro players don’t even exist today if it wasn’t for Faker revolutionizing the entire game and being an inspiration to infinite number of young players who aspired to become pros. That’s why real reason why Faker’s GOAT status is untouchable by anyone else.

As much as Faker's champion pool has been exposed from getting targetted, I think Keria's decline in his overall gameplay might be a more long term problem for T1. It may look like Faker is the weakest player given how much he's been running it down, but he's also arguably their highest impact player. The other players on the roster aren't exactly deep in their champ pools in this meta either. Coming into MSI, I actually think Faker was the best player in T1 this season. My favorite player on the roster, Gumayusi, while consistent hasn't exactly been peaking and his champions are mostly standard pairings with Keria. Zeus seems to just be TF, K'sante, and Zac with varying results. Oner while decent mostly wants to play Xin Zhao. And then there's Keria.... Like Faker, you expect him to have a champion ocean, but the mechanical spark that he had isn't there right now and having a wider champion pool with less impact is worse than having a strong core champion pool but more limited options. Like why ban Keria if his impact is barely there. Let's ban Faker because we know he's the biggest threat if given his good champs.

Thorin must not know what GOAT means, A T stands for all time, not right now. Chovy and knight are definately better right now. Although to be honest the fact that both of them are here makes it harder for either of them to take this title because they are so competitive with each other. At his peak faker felt peerless. You can make the argument to have chovy or knight now shadowbox vintage faker but its not reliable because so amny things have changed so much fundamental knowledge has been passed along players things that pro players used to complete and drop draws are now being executed by bronze players. You cannot realistically shadowbox from such different eras in the game so you have to compare them in their eras of dominance. Peak is important in GoAT conversation but duration and longevity is also a factor.

I mean saying T1 shouldnt be given 3rd in tier lists because they havent delivered is abit sus, they have made the past 2 worlds finals and were 3rd at MSI in 2023 and 2nd at MSI 2022 The one you should be arguing about is GenG who were ranked 1st on most tier list going into all the international events and haven't made a single finals, 4th at MSI 2023, 3-4 at worlds 2022, and 5-8 at Worlds 2024, maybe instead of saying T1 don't deserve the 3rd rank they should be asking why the first seed from LCK gets a number 1 or two spot.
@BlackDeathBlade
@BlackDeathBlade 2 ай бұрын
I think the funny fact about T1's resume is that 2023 statistically was the 2nd best team of the year behind JDG. Gen G should be questioned more for sure as #1 LCK seed 2 years in a row was considered frontrunners both times but the international factor gets handwaved every single time. Even LCK watchers don't trust Gen G (more like Chovy teams really), because of the demons of the past.

2:45:00 Outside of Knight and Chovy, what non-Western Mid laner would anyone be threatened by. I'm sorry, but outside of Knight and Chovy, all the top midlaners are Westerners. And even Caps is in the same conversation as Knight and Chovy. Caps, Jensen, APA, and Humanoid would all be above Faker and Creme.

@@mrbubbles188Monte specifically said T1 got lucky to win. Also T1 has never been that team to go and buy every biggest Korean superstar, they always have been an organization that strived for attracting the youngest top pros and to develop them which has been extremely successful considering how many great players who are not only competing in LCK but also in LEC and LCS have come from T1 pipeline.

@@nikitamarynich1794 yet T1 did better than them at every international tournament and even won last year with one of the highest win rates of any worlds winner while having the hardest worlds run ever. Also any pro will trade 10 domestic titles for even just 1 world title. Unfortunately a pleb like you wouldn’t understand the prestige that comes with winning a world title.

You're comparing a team that's been together for over 2 years now (and has allowed different GenG rosters to take almost every domestic final) to multiple teams that are only together for one year and all peak higher than T1. 2023 JDG, 2024 BLG, 2024 GenG would all be racking up international titles if the orgs could afford to keep those teams together for 2+ years, yet it's somehow GenG that has won 4 consecutive LCK titles directly against T1. T1 has only won 1 international and 1 LCK in the entire time they've been together. Depending on what LPL teams make it to worlds, T1 might not even be top 4 at world's this year (power rankings, not final standings, bad format at world's for rankings) and yet somehow it's hating on them to say they've underperformed expectations, when in reality saying they underperformed means we agree they SHOULD have won a lot more. It's literally saying they could have been the best team of all time but failed to execute, it's not an insult it's just the results

Same as Knight, if anything Knight has been on even better rosters than Chovy has and only has 1 MSI title to show for it which even though he got MVP, the real reason that team even was on track for the golden road was cause of how many games Ruler carried.
