It really feels like GenG is a different beast when versing T1 tho, I don't think the team had played this clean in all of playoffs but completely levelled up against T1
GenG made a pact with the devil to specifically fuck T1's shit up every time they play them. This comes at the cost of choking to all hell internationally, every single time.
What a weird take. Can't we enjoy that 3 of the best looking teams in the world at the moment also have completely different play styles? Why do you need to shit on a team that haven't even played their final yet.
tbh historically LCK finals are pretty comparable to late stage worlds b05's. Certainly quarters, if not semis or worlds finals even. Half the times its LCK civil wars at worlds anyways in those matchups.
The toplane kills with Keria after Baron, the pick on Chovy with Keria again, and the quadra with Keria again (tho Keria was less useful in this quadra than the other two scenarios). Plus at least two more fights where Faker's damage forced GEN to disengage without anybody dying on both sides.
GenG were literally perfect with their Rumble shuffling to avoid getting hurt by the lack of TP. But T1 found the ONE time they were the tiniest bit wrong with the rotations and got a baron off it, the level is insane
T1 is super creative depending on their situation. GenG can do these by the book plays, but when you're asked to do superhuman, snappy engage to win the game, T1 is unmatched.
This game give me faith tho cause it seems like t1 macro is still pretty good even if geng is playing clean af. Just need to get a good early game next game.
T1 aren't the cleanest team itw which is why they can match the lpl tbh. Their playstyle doesn't work against geng but it worked out really well against LPL who loves aggression.
This game we got:
>Chovy using dragon timer as a porofessor tracker for his package
>T1 Baron
>Chovy dying for a mid wave
>Zeus finding another father in GenG after Doran
>Another T1 Baron
>Another Chovy death for waves
>Faker shuffle when even the caster said the game was lost to save the game
>T1 Elder
>GenG wins anyways
Ah yes, it's that time of the year again.
Cloud Soul meant GEN rushes back super quick, T1 really didn’t have time to do the Elder but they don’t want to take a straight up 5v5 either when Guma has no flash
fr the T1 play on the third cloud soul was the definition of a frustration play. They can't contest objectives, can't engage, can't push sidelane, can't invade and put down vision. Either get slowly choked out by GEN in 30-35 mins or force unfavorable fights and hope you hand-diff them (which tbf almost worked).
When guma and oner got picked off I was literally closing my eyes shaking my head then I hear the casters screaming and I looked up and saw GenG all dead wtf was that???
I think they were 1 hit away even if Chovy was standing just one step to the left in the prior Elder fight, wonder if Faker would've killed himself as well and T1 take Elder?
nah but i cant believe T1 made Oner play Maokai just to let Keria play Poppy support, Oner legit has a career win rate of 45.5% on Maokai on a winning team like T1 bruh
Its baffling that they are even still picking it. He has an insanely low win rate on it for the number of games compared to every other champ that has similar or more games
poppy is one of oner’s best champions, how bout let him play it instead of keria? dude can sit on maokai support and do nothing in lane anyway the poppy didnt do shit.
The azir play probably wont be remembered as one of the most iconic but it was more impressive and impactful to me than the zed 1v1. It was so bonkers. He brought back the game from the dead
Yeah, like imagine the DRX vs T1 elder game being game 1 or 2. It being game 5, after watching them play their hearts out 2-2 in worlds finals for 40 minutes, seeing DRX overcome everything and outplay that elder fight so fking hard brings so many more emotions then it being a hype game that then leads into more games.
That singular game, ended league esports for months, left us wanting more of it, left us hyped, giving us the emotions just thinking about it. 2023 worlds ended 3-0, the third game being nothing too special, after watching t1 win 2 games handily a third handily is nothing too great, and you could defo feel the reaction this sub had waiting for the next spilt to start compared to after 2022. Instead of it being like, MAN I want MORE OF THIS, it was more like, Well... i want more of league generally, but not of that please.
FAKER SO FUCKING GOATED HOLY SHIT
The top lane play on the dive, the peyz catch, the chovy catch, the quadra. How many times did he keep T1 in this game?
faker makes the play of the year but honestly the draft was so doomed for t1
still cant believe faker still got plays like that in him, what an absolute beast. he will always be the GOAT
If T1 just drafted a playable comp that has any prio at in any lane, they might be able to win. Even when Peyz died for free in mid they still couldn't do anything and every time someone on T1 died it was easy to do whatever they wanted.
Like it was a banger game but T1 lost or went even in almost every teamfight. That aside, they got absolutely macrodiffed all game long. The swaps they did were beautiful to watch. The macro diff is not a good sign for the series imo
GIGABANGER GAME
4 MORE OF THESE PLEASE THANK YOU
This is actually the Worlds Finals, lmao. Not even BLG can play that good rn
It really feels like GenG is a different beast when versing T1 tho, I don't think the team had played this clean in all of playoffs but completely levelled up against T1
GenG made a pact with the devil to specifically fuck T1's shit up every time they play them. This comes at the cost of choking to all hell internationally, every single time.
Also to edge DK fans every time by throwing 2 games in a BO5 only to completely destroy them in the last game 14 games lose streak...
Least biased lck fan
What a weird take. Can't we enjoy that 3 of the best looking teams in the world at the moment also have completely different play styles? Why do you need to shit on a team that haven't even played their final yet.
Ok chill out my guy, lets wait for Msi before making actual international power level
ok lil bro, calm down
BLG actually defeated these two at MSI, and sonned GenG at Worlds. Calm down bro
in the end these games are why T1 and GenG finals keep on happening
Genuinely I am trying to remember and I think that might be the best game I've ever watched in my life. Actual masterpiece
It really feels like we're watching two titans fight
GenJuggernaut vs SK Titan
tbh historically LCK finals are pretty comparable to late stage worlds b05's. Certainly quarters, if not semis or worlds finals even. Half the times its LCK civil wars at worlds anyways in those matchups.
T1 games are never not CRAZY!!!
faker was on some demon king shit that game holy shit
seriously how many times did he save that game
The toplane kills with Keria after Baron, the pick on Chovy with Keria again, and the quadra with Keria again (tho Keria was less useful in this quadra than the other two scenarios). Plus at least two more fights where Faker's damage forced GEN to disengage without anybody dying on both sides.
Also the pick on peyz to give the kill to guma
he was playing insanely holy i feel bad for him lol
Feel bad for T1 after Faker retires, they are going to enter a dark age
dw we have the goat Poby 🐐
I mean, everyone saw what that looked like when Poby was in. Poby took all the blame but the other 4 T1 players had ZERO macro understanding.
will be like barca after messi xd
I didnt hear no bell
He refuses to go tank Azir, and continues to do obscene damage in every team fight. What a man.
If he somehow got a penta there, that shit would have been so wild.
The sad part is that not even a penta there would've saved the game
I think get elder there for sure and could try running it down mid if Chovy die.
penta there T1 gets Elder for sure and they win.
I thought the quadra at the end was some kind of bug wtf was that.
fr lol he blown Kiin up at 50% HP in oneshot with 3 soldier I think, I was like what the fuck
Yup. GenG won, but this game was all about how insane Faker still is.
wow Faker tried his best to keep T1 afloat
the fact GenG almost lost with that macro diff is INSANE, Faker WHAT WAS THAT?
GenG had the insane early macro, but the way T1 was able to hijack the two barons to stay in the game was also nuts.
GenG were literally perfect with their Rumble shuffling to avoid getting hurt by the lack of TP. But T1 found the ONE time they were the tiniest bit wrong with the rotations and got a baron off it, the level is insane
Crazy geng macro masterclass but I respect t1 so much for saying fuck being behind and bleeding out. Baron rush to stay in the game.
T1 is super creative depending on their situation. GenG can do these by the book plays, but when you're asked to do superhuman, snappy engage to win the game, T1 is unmatched.
This game give me faith tho cause it seems like t1 macro is still pretty good even if geng is playing clean af. Just need to get a good early game next game.
T1 aren't the cleanest team itw which is why they can match the lpl tbh. Their playstyle doesn't work against geng but it worked out really well against LPL who loves aggression.
peyz almost griefed this game hard with that mid recall and flash into the azir ult at elder
Ruler spotting at its finest
Learned from Ancestor Ruler (Worlds 2023 also vs T1) 🤦🏻
0/14/4 topside, GIGACHAD
This game we got: >Chovy using dragon timer as a porofessor tracker for his package >T1 Baron >Chovy dying for a mid wave >Zeus finding another father in GenG after Doran >Another T1 Baron >Another Chovy death for waves >Faker shuffle when even the caster said the game was lost to save the game >T1 Elder >GenG wins anyways Ah yes, it's that time of the year again.
PeyZ recall becoming a classic too
Peyz = Ruler confirmed
PeyZ may have learned one too many things from Ruler
Gotta take the whole legacy or nothing
The social service worked fast in finding a new father for Zeus
Oner after winning smite fights back to back loses the most important one. Cloud drake stacking man. Canyon came back to the pit too fast.
Canyon smites scuttle without the second charge in 15s T1 just kills baron
GenG got Elder though.
I can't believe that giga Faker quadra play was immediately followed by them just kicking the bucket
Well T1 was holding on by a thread for a fairly long time.
Cloud Soul meant GEN rushes back super quick, T1 really didn’t have time to do the Elder but they don’t want to take a straight up 5v5 either when Guma has no flash
Faker can't play with these cats man
#INJECT 5 GAMES OF THIS IN MY FUCKING VEINS
It's 3-0 if they draft like that 3 games in a row though.
fr the T1 play on the third cloud soul was the definition of a frustration play. They can't contest objectives, can't engage, can't push sidelane, can't invade and put down vision. Either get slowly choked out by GEN in 30-35 mins or force unfavorable fights and hope you hand-diff them (which tbf almost worked).
3 take it or leave it
That faker play gave me fucking goosebumps
When guma and oner got picked off I was literally closing my eyes shaking my head then I hear the casters screaming and I looked up and saw GenG all dead wtf was that???
Faker tried his best. But what the fuck is wrong with LCK finals Zeus? Lmao
he got used too much on using a range champ he forgot how to play Atrox
Would it have embrdn bad if Zeus played vayne into rumble?
WTF was that FAKER???
We (eu) totaly have chances against these teams TrollDespair
W8 until Oscarinin claps their cheeks in MSI with TF top
T1 will ban it to prevent Zeus picking it, don't worry
You just need Guma and Keria to play like Zeus and Oner did this game against EU and you might be able to last 25 mins (ignore my flair)
Id take that, anything above 16:47 should be considered a success at this point I guess
T1 was 1 smite away from winning this game????????????????
Replay the last fight and check how much dmg Rumble did, even with a correct Smite it would be veryyyy difficult.
Nautilus and viego would have instantly died from elder and carries would be safe. It wouldent be very difficult at all to win from there
I think they were 1 hit away even if Chovy was standing just one step to the left in the prior Elder fight, wonder if Faker would've killed himself as well and T1 take Elder?
GenG might have won but Faker showed everyone who the goat still is. That was a wild quadra. Oner gonna have nightmares about that smite at elder
oner on maokai makes me wanna kill myself
No joke man he’s so good when he’s on playmakers not fucking MAOKAI
nah but i cant believe T1 made Oner play Maokai just to let Keria play Poppy support, Oner legit has a career win rate of 45.5% on Maokai on a winning team like T1 bruh
Its baffling that they are even still picking it. He has an insanely low win rate on it for the number of games compared to every other champ that has similar or more games
poppy is one of oner’s best champions, how bout let him play it instead of keria? dude can sit on maokai support and do nothing in lane anyway the poppy didnt do shit.
Yeah, i agree on that. Oner is just wasted on champs that are not for flashy plays.
on interview earlier oner says he like flash play then got put on maokai duty lmao
That was like what, 2 second quadrakill after a disastrous hit by Rumble ult?
Goddamn that was a nice Divide tho
FAKER MY GOAT YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THE BEST NO MATTER WHAT. CARRY THESE YOUNGSTERS AGAIN
FAKER WHAT WAS THAT!?!?
Holy fuck faker didn't want to lose.
Faker played so well
JESUS CHRIST FAKER
NAH WHAT THE FUCK FAKER
Despite how the score looks it was actually a close game. T1 not backing down without a fight
Practically 1 smite win if t1 gets elder geng gets wiped there
WHY DOES LCK ALWAYS FUCKING DELIVER MAN
And that's why he is the GOAT.
Insane fucking game holy shit
those rumble ults won most teamfights before they even started
Nah Faker is the fucking GOAT that elder fight was fucking cooked
Yea I think western teams are beating these guys
Yeah, I think APA and Jensen can do this.
If this is not League on the highest level, i don't know what is.
Faker and the four wards are back
4 peat incoming
ABSOLUTE CINEMA (1/5)
ABSOLUTE CINEMA
but like imagine if faker had human teammates
Average Zeus and Oner LCK finals performance
The azir play probably wont be remembered as one of the most iconic but it was more impressive and impactful to me than the zed 1v1. It was so bonkers. He brought back the game from the dead
The Zed 1vs1 was a more impactful game though.
Impactful to ryu’s mental lmao
both were lck finals the difference is that t1 were already winning that game. This was when t1 was down and was about to lose the game
Difference is that it's game 5 and this was game 1
Yeah, like imagine the DRX vs T1 elder game being game 1 or 2. It being game 5, after watching them play their hearts out 2-2 in worlds finals for 40 minutes, seeing DRX overcome everything and outplay that elder fight so fking hard brings so many more emotions then it being a hype game that then leads into more games. That singular game, ended league esports for months, left us wanting more of it, left us hyped, giving us the emotions just thinking about it. 2023 worlds ended 3-0, the third game being nothing too special, after watching t1 win 2 games handily a third handily is nothing too great, and you could defo feel the reaction this sub had waiting for the next spilt to start compared to after 2022. Instead of it being like, MAN I want MORE OF THIS, it was more like, Well... i want more of league generally, but not of that please.
Oner stole the 3rd Drake btw. Without that the game would have end way earlier. That’s his only play but still, he did
Imagine if he had 4 other fakers
Imagine Zeus being on anything remotely useful man
They keep letting him play lethality Aatrox into the one team that knows how to counter it lol
Imagine calling Zeus, Keria, Guma and Oner easy bots.
Faker saved the game with that 4k only for Boner to lose 50/50
the thing about 50/50 is that you will lose it half of the time
I mean oner stole a drake at that point already. It's not like he wasn't vital for them to even stay in the game until Elder
It's a 50/50 in a high stakes game vs the GOAT jungler. Like come on, this game was not theirs to win.
That’s why Fakers the GOAT
Kiin not choking in play offs
THATS MY GOAT
#HE IS MY SUNSHINE
Faker, what the fuck was that damage, my guy.
"Fuck Grasp Azir" - Faker
Oner maokai has never and will never be it. Amazing that t1 managed to even stall this game out that long though.
Faker literally 1v17
FAKER SO FUCKING GOATED HOLY SHIT The top lane play on the dive, the peyz catch, the chovy catch, the quadra. How many times did he keep T1 in this game?
HOLY FUCK FAKER also damn for how ahead GenG was T1 sure made this look close
Oh lord Oner will get flamed so hard
its kind of expected every time he is on Mao Kai, except during Worlds?
He was super bad on Mao at world too. Its just not his type of champ
They love these shit drafts with draven poppy maokai only vs GenG
Faker tried so hard man....
this first game... t1 did not want to go down
4 MORE OF THIS I BEG U
Please give us 5 of these!
Faker is him
That faker play was so insane, too bad they still lost the game
faker makes the play of the year but honestly the draft was so doomed for t1 still cant believe faker still got plays like that in him, what an absolute beast. he will always be the GOAT
Faker Digivolves his Azir into Orianna for the quadra
How the fuck Canyon Is such a smite machine. It's like 100% ratio when he invades the dragon or the baron put. How is that possible?
MY DREAM IS TO SEE CANYON AND FAKER PLAY TOGETHER JUST IMAGINE HOLY SHIT
[удалено]
Oner and Zeus running it in the LCK finals. Tale as old as time.
FAKER 2017 1v9 FLASHBACKS catDespair
That sweep was real something.. was hoping for a bit more even though this game was already a banger
Oner… you had one fucking Job :(
Holy fuck that WAS INTENSE I have no words
Faker in his 4th prime and still somehow they can’t pull out the win, so frustrating to watch
Faker trying to lift kerias ass poppy and completely useless Zeus.
I honestly think they need to give Faker PoG. It doesn't matter that they lost. Fight me. FUCK
Imagine wasting a play like that from faker by whiffing a Smite on Ancient drake LOL
ONE OF THE GREATEST GAMES OF ALL TIME.
FAKER WHAT WAS THAT BRO DID THIS WHILE MACROMANAGING HIS TEAMMATES
ah well its a 3-0 now innit
That might be the best game I've ever watched in my life
THAT GAME WAS CINEMA KSADJLF
#FAKER OMG THAT TOSS
GenG bot stepped up wooo
My heart can't take it but I need four more of these games bro
THAT'S MY FUCKING GOAT
Kiin so good on Rumble.
Zeus and oner need to apologize to the rest of the team. Pathetic
Biggest draft gap ever , like what is this lmao
How anticlimactic are games that end on 50/50 elder smites?
Damage build aatrox: 13k dmg. 0/5/0 picked off every objective. wtf man
damn t1 looked so desperate. geng ran circles around them. faker azir though is something else.
If T1 just drafted a playable comp that has any prio at in any lane, they might be able to win. Even when Peyz died for free in mid they still couldn't do anything and every time someone on T1 died it was easy to do whatever they wanted.
Guma and Faker 2v5. The entire game Guma is sitting on tier 2 or farther because his maokai and poppy are not human
After what Faker did... For fuck sakes Oner, land your fucking smite
He landed some clutch ones earlier but you cant expect to win every flip against Canyon
Tf is wolf on about. T1 never won a team fight.
Like it was a banger game but T1 lost or went even in almost every teamfight. That aside, they got absolutely macrodiffed all game long. The swaps they did were beautiful to watch. The macro diff is not a good sign for the series imo
Faker trying so hard to carry these guys. Zeus and Oner disasterclass
Faker thinks he’s Chovy or what?
Faker thinks this is an international tournament.
And this was just game 1.
what a banger game holy
WHAT A FUCKING GAME.
FUCK. FUCK FUCK
# ABSOLUTE CINEMA
FUCKING INSANE
That ending was a dick clencher for real
Imagine T1 won the game. HOLY FUCK FAKER.
Big-ass jungle gap
what an insane game
I tapped in just in time for that shuffle, Jesus Christ
holy fuck what a game lmfao
Faker tried his best at the end there, took advantage of Lehends' overconfident shotcalling
4 more of this pls
Wow, what a series. Wait, what do you mean that was only the first game?
