Perhaps that's what the best korea has to offer in your opinion but aside from Faker ( who looked mortal in the first 2 games vs KTB) nobody stands out individually at the moment to the extent that I would put him without a doubt into an allstar team.

TOP: add Impact
Jungle: lol you forgot Dandy
Supp: Mata is just as go[o]d


Sure Impact is one of the good top laners of Korea... But not of the BEST. Yeah he did perform well in the finals... But I don't think he's been as consistent and "impact-ful" as Shy, Flame, or InSec... Hardly. If he keeps up this performance sure... but in my opinion, not as complete of a player as Flame.
Most of the time I've seen him played... seemed pretty meh to me... Like good but not great.

Dandy... Okay he is an OKAY jungler. If you have watched InSec... When he was still jungling... You can just tell Dandy can't be in the same league with this guy. I mean seriously? He's just not as consistent. I only see him really perform once in awhile. While Insec when he was jungling would have an MVP viable game every day he played. Insec is the STAR of his team while dandy isn't. Insec is capable of playing herbivore style too. (and while you could argue, being praised or recognized doesn't always mean he's good but... come on he's Insec for Godsakes.

Mata... okay... but I haven't seen the other team ban 2 champions just because of him. I mean okay he is a great support... and I believe Poohmandu is pretty good too. but Madlife's presence, or influence in a game when he has thresh, or blitzcrank is just unbelievable. and even if he doesn't have them. His sona is probably the best sona in the korean scene.

I mean people don't call these players God for no reason.


That are your very biased oppinions. Which is fine, but I would totally disagree with several of your choices.

Top: Flame or Insec. These are exceptional Top Laners now and there is noone else on their level.
Jungle: Dandy and only Dandy. The way he reads the game, the way he can turn games from this position is just not reached by anyone out there.
Mid: Faker. No discussion.
adc: Imp or Piglet. Piglet showed great improvement but I still would take Imp. I do think though, that both are on a similar level.
support: Mata. Madlife is great, when he gets his favored champions. But that it is so easy to ban him out, is really shocking. Take away Blitzcrank and Thresh and he becomes just another good support. Mata has a much wider champion pool at an exceptional level.

But I guess everyone has another oppinion on this topic, but it´s fun to discuss


ontopic: I find it very sad for KT B to lose two series in a row in this fashion. I hope they don´t break mentally on this.

Game 3, CloudTemplar went an odd build that I haven't seen before on Noc. Madreds into Zerker. Kindle, Chain Vest. Ended the game with Sunfire, Golem SS, Zerker, Phage, Glacial, Madreds. @_@

I don't think I've seen a pro go Madred's/Spirit Stone prior to this.

Yango was talking about this a while ago, it makes farming jungle EXTREMELY fast. I've done it a a couple times, I'm still not 100% convinced.

Wasn't Yango saying how Madreds/Spirit is better than upgrading the madreds to wriggles.

Yango definitely talked about the merits of Madreds/SS a few months ago but I personally haven't tried. I might have to now.

Soo... if all of this LoL ProLeague stuff is really happening with the KeSPA teams... we might have stuff like this on a regular basis. Just imagine the insanity.

No way would I take flame over shy right now. I think flame is probably more talented and the better laner, but the meta favors shy's champions right now, particularly shen.

Jungle has yet to catch up to Insec but it seems their style in general is different. Insec would typically get a lot more farm.

ADCs.. Only imp and piglet should be in the discussion. I have yet to see anyone teamfight like piglet has though. He doesn't just stay alive, he also takes out high priority targets by himself. Both are solid overall, but piglet has raised the bar this season.

You could do the same to mata and he'll be average. That doesnt happen because Ozone actually will rape you if you only ban support.

Top: Shy/Flame/inSec if he gets his champs
Jungle: DanDy, KaKAO on a good day. inSec was a good jungler but I never thought he had the finesse of DanDy. KTB in Winter and Spring ran new comps and strategies that teams weren't used to, so I don't necessarily credit all of their success to their mechanics and decision making.
Mid: Faker
Adc: Imp/Piglet. Imp I think can adapt better than Piglet, though. Don't forget Pray, despite a bad season, he's still freaking good.

Madreds/Kindle/SS+ is better than Madreds/SS/Kindle/SS+ imo

The SS+ item is just ridiculously flexible and pretty efficient.

You miss the farm timing if you get SS after Kindle.

These blind picks are just crazy bad for KTB. 2 times now Ryu starts elixir and just wastes it, blowing 4 pots against GBM and Faker who both started Dorans Shield. Then picking vayne to fast push with fiddle?

KT needs to three stooges their heads together. Will be awesome if they manage to make it through both CJ's again.

I'm starting to feel like Flame got overhyped thru empty lane farming into strong team fighting, ever since the 1v2 nerfs he's been not his normal self (which isn't saying much but still the correlation is there) I guess we'll see when he's up against Insec and (hopefully)Shy.

Also that you people would take Mata over Madlife and Mandu is pretty weird to me but ok.

If we had cloning technology, and we created 5 fakers, to face off versus 5 madlifes, who would win? or would the universe implode from the amount of awesomeness the game would have?
