EPThis mechanics cap is pretty high and will do a lot of damage in teamfights with limited resources. i'd rather faker play like bang tbh. some of the risky plays faker pulls isn't going to work when he's older.

The problem is I don't think SKT has enough skill elsewhere for faker to play like that, without reaching the success they have. | ||

Which is fine, but let's not pretend he's top tier adc because he's on the best team in the world. Not to mention he got boosted from imp and deft leaving korea. if anything those guys are overrated lmao. they've accomplished nothing and while they have had impressive carry games on struggling teams, bang has already shown that he can play at that level with more consistent performances. when SKT plays around bang he steps up and is able to play the main carry role. when they don't, he's fine to play a secondary or even tertiary role. that flexibility alone is valuable as fuck. not only that, it's no coincidence that bang is looking more impressive this season. last season was top centric so he was given virtually no resources. he was LAST place in team's gold % for summer split. for reference, the adc with the lowest gold% in the NA LCS fucking Apollo had more of his team's resources than bang did. In EU, adryh, vardags. now that adc's been given more power and duke is still adjusting to SKT, they've been giving bang slightly more to work with (he's now middle of the pack in terms of resources) and topping the charts in damage. He's a rich man's rekkles to me since rekkles also was put in a similar spot last season but bang's a better version. top 3 adc is fine giving benefit of the doubt to like fury/ohq/nuclear or whoever but top 5/middle of the pack is just lomo. the others have a lot more to prove than bang does right now. it's easier to not look bad when playing with faker but it's also harder to look good playing with faker (and marin last season being the 1st or 2nd carry). it's also easier to look like a god on a shit team but it's also harder to not become a shitter yourself on a shit team. both had advantages and disadvantages. so no I'm not going to say 'lol bang default #1 adc korea and world' but fuck no I would not take 5 LCK adc's over bang if I had to build a team | ||

 Was cut off from team right from the start and then he ran and the team died. Should have just committed. | ||

It's like orgasm denial. They sit there poking at each other every now and then have a big of a scuffle but then both walk away before the real payoff can happen. You can almost skip the first 10-20 minutes of a league game to actually get to the payoff moments which is silly. Riot please bring back S2! | ||
