One hiccup doesn't exactly mean anything and I don't even like SKT or Faker | ||

Did skt win everything cause he dominated? Or did he "dominate" cause skt won everything. Another point i have to make is, that many champs in lol need about the same "skillset" to be played, faker just had the balls to pick them, he isnt the best on every champ at all, in fact he is just solid enough to play them and isnt afraid (for no reason) like many other midlaners. | ||

many of the competing guys may have good days that are better than him, but that's just how performances go. you need to look at the level of performance for everyone on equal footing. pawn is really good, for example, but is he consistently as good even in this tournament? about these games, it does show that when SKT is not winning lanes that convincingly they can be beaten. the getting caught etc is uncharacteristic but that may just be the lakc of comfort from playing with not nearly as much vision as they had in their winning games. it's the snowball mechanics working against them. they have not had that much experience playing from behind. going forward into s4, to continue their dominance they need to either come up with a meta-leading strategic system like they had before, or it won't be the same 80% winrate kind of dominance we've been seeing. | ||

so far in lol though, if you are going to call anyone a god faker is the one. ever since his amateur days he has shown a level of talent that stands out even in terms of other highly touted prospects. you have to look at him as a generational player. | ||
