Unusual comp from Rox.

This is what low tier LCK teams look like, bottom half of the table isn't particularly high quality, though they can sometimes give the big guys some difficulties.

On a side note, CoreJJs KDA is hilarious, def most successful player to return from LCS.

Freecs disbanding when?
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

Almost every time SKT were getting to a point of insurmountable advantage Faker made some kind of mistake of pushing too hard. You see this at the fight around drake where KT manage to turn it due to Pawn but Pawn goes to far in and dies. After both teams disengage Faker is still left chilling around the Drake pit by himself. He dies there for no reason given KT the drake. If he didn't die KT couldn't get the Drake which most likely would have gone to SKT. The lazy back was another earlier example of how he was building a large lead that was snowballing only for momentum to be killed by his mistake.

Ultimately Faker did a lot of work to get them into the game but at the same time he was also a big part of why things got turned around. It feels like he's in a state of desperation, trying too hard at every moment. I'm also not sure why you say G3 comp was horrible. It was pretty insane comp that basically had an unkillable vlad in the late game. His drive to go 120% can backfire, which in this game it did.


Lolwut? They had no range against Azir-Ezreal and no one is unkillable against Azir (both Vlad and Jarvan could easily be popped in a single Jax stun if they try to dive). Really could have used the Galio they banned. They almost pulled it off because Pawn was wiffing ultimates left and right.

Maybe Vlad wasn't unkillable. I'd have to do more thinking on that. The main take away is that Faker did two massive mistakes in the early-mid game that stopped his team from running away with the game. He may have been the one to push to get the advantages but he also was the big culprit in throwing them all away. Then the mistakes at the end obviously sealed the defeat but I feel those were less of an issue.

That's enough to criticize him for his performance. He did a lot of good but he also did some big bad mistakes. You can talk about his performance with both aspects.

edit: As an aside I can't help feeling LCK teams are being too risk adverse. We constantly see teams slowly lose grip of the game until they in a position where they just can't win yet they still take zero risks.

I'm not gonna give up on SKT yet, cause giving up on SKT is historically not very smart but it's not looking good. We'll have to see if Wolf makes a return to support, perhaps?

Or is SKT going to pull out Blossom?

KSV drafted very well this game though. As long as Crown doesn't int they should win pretty easily.
