100% agree with mikyx when he talks about players at worlds. before worlds everyone seemed shaky enough and nobody was completely dumpstering on the competition like Ruler was last year. even this worlds all the supports bar keria felt pretty shit

[@Gurpreet-sv5zg]

EU players were a lot worse from all positions tho.

[@marcosa2000]

​​@@Gurpreet-sv5zg Caps and BB were equal to their opposition. So was Inspired in FLY. If you want to go into arguable territory, Mikyx and Hans in G2 were competing imo. So was the entire FLY squad vs Gen G. Sure, FNC and MAD collapsed, as well as TL (and obviously 100 thieves), but G2 and FLY were competitive imo. Hell, G2/FLY with a better draw could have made semis. Weibo did

[@Nryan-ks5tz]

@@marcosa2000i dont think bb looked particularly great in summer and summer finals, there was the mad lions series where he unironically got gapped pretty hard by myrwn, and it was honestly pretty hard to say g2 was good before worlds since they won every game from bizarre and losing game states in EU

[@marcosa2000]

@@Nryan-ks5tz G2 had a slump in summer, yes. Even with that slump they won all titles. BB was a monster all year aside from that slump. He beat Breathe and did very well against Bin at Worlds, which imo should be rated higher than summer. Idk why you think that makes BB bad

[@Gurpreet-sv5zg]

@@marcosa2000 Equal lol? Caps was really awful at worlds who routinely got caught pre 6 and ended up trolling in clutch team fights. BB was w.e. Inspired lost the early game to most of the junglers. He did nothing as well.

[@bombpopsicles5890]

I think LEC just needs to learn from FLY and play their own style regardless of meta. They don’t have the opportunity to compete against super skilled teams on a regular basis. ON, Delight, and Keria will almost always win in a standard meta matchup (even tanks).

[@aaawa2074]

That’s why I will never understand how they can put LEC players above LCK players in their rankings in this day and age. It’s not 2018-2020. LEC and LCK are not close in level. T1 players not looking good vs the best players in the world is not the same as Caps smurfing on freskowy. Im sure Faker would look good playing ranged mid laners while drunk against freskowy

Dom is so hellbent on trying to force the narrative that MSI is a higher quality tournament than Worlds because the LPL haven't won it 3 years lol. Just because we saw a few more Bo5s (mostly between teams that had already played each other) at MSi, it doesn't mean it's of higher quality. The worlds winner is always better than the MSI winner of the same year.

Everyone is playing safe in double elimination, I hate how they aren't playing 100% in upper bracket then tryhard when in lower bracket, what's the point anyway if they won't try to use their strategies in upper. It would've been the same if they do single. And if you play your key strategies in upper, you will be punished like TES

[@arcofokker]

rubish son. stop trying to make up ways to turn it into your own favor. double elim is always better ALWAYS. then dumb draws make less impact. you actually have to beat some good teams to get into the finals instead of worlds where you could COULD get in there without facing real competition. weve had bad final matchups in worlds so many times where and underdog comes in and does absolutely nothing. atelast with double elim if the underdog comes there , they have had to prove themselves. so stop hating on people because you dont like them because its drippin of this energy. i think its time we get our real names on the internet that saves the world of some gruesome posts aswell as people can face consequences way easier.

Looking for all other stats instead of T1 9/9 Semies, 7 Finals, 5 Champion is really hilarious. He even put BLG over GenG after their lost as MSI, GenG over HLE after LCK Summer, FULLY BIAS RANKING, that makes other team's archivement like SH*T. HLE won GEnG, #1 and ranked below GenG, GenG won BLG MSI and ranked below BLG, and some random Na player like CoreJJ even above Faker, the problem is he didnt stand any point. It keeps changing no matter what just to downgrade other teams. Since 2022, LPL#6 could win world, LPL by far strongest region, LPL brings world 4 seed #1, and we do know what happens the next 2 years.

Dom mega coping about how “Upsets 10th place finish didn’t really count because once they lost that first game it was over”. No. People forget videos of him storming out of the room after a loss. He gave up on that team. Upset is insane but this “Oh well none of his 10th place finishes were his fault and they didn’t count anyway because I don’t think they should” is just a joke.

[@baam6258]

This guy is delusional 😂 he does realize he plays in the LEC and was on G2. His trophies are just participation awards. In the worst meta for T1 at MSI they got eliminated 3-0 by T1 🤣 let’s see if he’s this confident next year when he doesn’t have caps to save him when he’s running it down.

[@skrattaoppar9753]

I don't think the meta was bad, T1 just figured out how to play swaps and counter adc meta more effectively throughout the end of the year. Sure it was nerfed but T1 did beat BLG who played Smolder and Ziggs. I hate how T1 plays standard throughout the year even tho swaps and adc was the meta but They got ddos'd so there was really no room for practice.

[@aaawa2074]

He is a big reason why G2 is good. Compare them with Mikyx and with Targamas. Night and day. Mikyx is important for G2 just like Lehends is important for GENG. They can’t just play a bum and perform as well. And btw at MSI when G2 3-0d TES. Mikyx was their best player. Mikyx is extremely good when he performs. He’s just inconsistent. And he’s obviously not Keria level aswell. But still the western support goat (fighting with CoreJJ)
