15 Times Pros Picked OFF-META Champions that WORKED

Thank you everyone for watching todays episode! Make sure to SUBSCRIBE for more daily content! 👍

[@skrrrblik]

I still consider Gorilla's MF as the best counterpick of all time. There was probably not a single person expecting it to work but that shit countered Zyra into oblivion.

[@DiabloTommaso]

T1 were stunned as well. I remember those games. Bann mf win g5

[@EarlHare]

Actual secret UFO technology. Absolute hell playing soloQ botlane that week.

[@123questar123]

Main reason was MFs E one shotting plants afaik which no one understood, except Gorilla and co - unintended interaction but historic nonetheless

[@goldenhusky7926]

​@@DiabloTommasothey didnt ban mf. They banned ashe. Cause mf works due to her synergy with ashe

[@DiabloTommaso]

@@goldenhusky7926 oh Mandela effect xD

[@cheekers4445]

Mf support not being first is a crime man. An non meta adc as a support, pulled it off back to back and forced skt to ban it, in worlds semifinals.

[@FitzgeraldStanburyWeissV]

True, it was an insanely big brain pick

[@arvidehn3729]

It is ”15 times” not ”top 15 times” just fyi

[@jelleverbugt3806]

​@@arvidehn3729 than there should not have been a countdown from 15 to 1... Gorilla's MF is by far the BEST counterpick in LoL Esports history amd should for sure be listed as #1. If this is just 15 'random' moments, lose the numerals

[@Hclody95]

ap mf's E counters zyra's plants it was genius

[@Metaphor420]

​@@Hclody95bro it happend years ago when ap mf was not a thing😅

[@AYAYAOUO]

I miss the old UOL at that time, basically they all picked off meta champs…. Watching them is so enjoyable

[@snowflake340]

I'll never forget the UOL lux pyke bot

[@vaderglenn]

Never forget jungle tf that completely shit on bjergson.

[@fis001r]

7:03 that didn't really do it justice. GAM had the entire game planned out from the start, with a cheese start to get Noc fed early on to get through the early game until Tristan and Lulu can 2v8. They role swapped bot and top, but galio spent the first few minutes helping Nocturne clear his jungle. Trist and Lulu on the other hand bullied the maokai so hard, he couldn't even farm a single minion. Nocturne was so far ahead of everyone else, that he was already lvl 6 while everyone else was around 3 or 4. He then used his ultimate to doublekill the enemy botlane together with galio. The result was a lvl 6 nocturne with his jungle item complete by the time maokai had bare gotten 3 cs. By the time Fanatic cought up with everything, Tristana and Lulu had already scaled so far, that they could literally almost 2v5 Pentakill the entire enemy team (Kassadin stole the last kill)

[@KSizbored4life]

That M5 game vs DIG is such a throwback. This was back in season 2 and M5 pulled off such a big brain strat. They invade enemy's blue for Diamondprox while Genja on Urgot takes their blue buff at level 1, then he's able to 1v2 the corki lane while Ali double jungles/perma roams. It ends with Scarra getting killed twice, Diamond counterjungling the crap out of Dom and setting him behind all game, and Genja being 2 levels ahead of the bot lane from the 1v2

[@Mau_Ryze]

Feel you was an Urgot main till his rework... loved how Genja perfected that champ in playstyle and build together with his Team

[@shepoopedinhisbed9745]

M5 really were the masters of counterjungling

[@gengar618]

I’ll never forget TF Jungle absolutely EMBARRASSING TSM with it. Still one of my favorite matches ever

[@CJDM310]

I understand not including it because it wasn't at worlds or the playoffs of a major region, but Hai's Teemo against TSM deserves an honorable mention. I think it even directly resulted in a teemo nerf.

[@shupakiko]

what a throwback video ! I miss deficio's casting way more than i thought and seeing all those absurdly op champs of the past (poppy, release kayn...) made me nostalgic :) good video

[@chldshgmbn]

I was thinking the same thing. Loved deficio's casting so much

[@chaedi8457]

Big one you missed was Likkrit playing Brand in 2016 World's. They helped a wild card team make it to the quarterfinals for the first time ever.

[@Biditchoun]

Excellent point

[@kHz33]

Sad to not see Kikis' Shaco jungle vs Gambit at the 2015 Spring EULCS quarterfinals, or even his Udyr

[@chaedi8457]

BEAR! FLASH! PUNCH! I loved that Shaco though.

[@Ibm19000]

After Caps Vayne pick, Vizicsacsi Poppy was a doubledown the best pcik ever. After that they got in LCS :)

[@ElecTriQ14]

Ah I was hoping to see Darien's Warwick in here

[@zefie14]

You mean THE weedwick from patch 4.20

[@gwingcommander]

oh my god, I forgot all about the glory of the true Weedwick. Reminds me of the Wizard Lizard and Manamune Aatrox :D EU LCS was really fun back then lol

[@CockroachMunchingKrabbyPatty]

it is some absolute bs that you're not able to upload highlight vods of pro lol anymore. i've watched your channel for almost as long as LCS has been around. hope these videos do well for you monetarily because i don't think the scene would have been as lucrative without the hard work of community members like you.

[@soccernoodle17x]

#8 nocturne really just got thrown into this compilation to be able to title it “15” instead of “14” lol. No clip from champ select bc it’s really not off meta and they wouldn’t have talked about it, and then only a single clip of a pretty mediocre kill and then onto the next 😂 what a joke

[@urvhin]

Caps convincing them his vayne draft but his expression looks like he's trying not to look suspicious with that awkward smile💀

[@jorgelaborde376]

it makes me nostalgic to see how much fights lasted before season 7, like solid 15 secs, instead of the 5 they last now

[@Alpffine]

inSec's Fiddlesticks and Pantheon that beat OMG in 2013 worlds?

[@patrickH206]

I remember a documentary saying the then T1 coach kkoma asked wolf could he handle MF after the first loss, and wolf said yes and proceeded to get dunked on again and again.

[@thelegendsplays6266]

So you are telling me.... that the G2 TEAM (not solo pick) with Ryze top, Xayah/Rakan mid/jung, Morgana (pick by jung) bot and Pyke (pick by mid) roaming is NOT on this lists???? What... the... fuck... Also, that was in the Finals against S04, so deffo high stakes and they DESTROYED them in the fastest game at the time with these odd picks.

[@lucastsai6249]

I think you should add TPA Stanley’s top lane nidalee into this video

[@tranthekhang2666]

levi's nocturne lv 6 in 5 mins such a great pick

[@kalarius4403]

Best channel for highlights, missing your Epic and Mega Epic tags, come back soon.

[@adamneradilek4444]

This really show it wasn't made by anyone who knows anything. Nobody even checked. "Kiki"? "major"? This is very embarrassing...

[@tdh920]

Faker has also pulled out Fizz and Velkoz out of nowhere in LCK playoffs

[@grrumakemeangry]

and kaisa

[@jarmuschwendovsky1886]

where is Keane's Hecarim mid ??!!

[@yedesneycl]

Im my opinion supp MF and Leona with fervor rune were really crazy picks

[@orbitalstrike]

lol the arrow at 1:20 missed, but the hit boxes arent scripted so it still hit.

[@aldzcant1736]

I remember SKT T1 Faker's LB vs EDG's 5 man to counter it, and still they had a hard time. Classic Faker

[@jckauffman6004]

My brain exploded when i realized the TFT TSM Keane was the same GV Keane playing urgot vs TSM

[@hillerious3952]

I wonder if Faker just failed his flash or if it was actually a genius try to flash against the wall so he can dodge pixel clean the arrow.

[@DanyBlue]

Why didn't you put Singed pick? (i dont remember who play him but it was in the world championshio of 3 or 4 years ago)

[@Lazlum]

What about yorick support with cassio adc?

[@xphasis4258]

Also sad that the Yorick Pick from Uol in 2015 EU LCS isnt in this video

[@MadIIMike]

My vote goes to Shusheis AP Alistar, he was one of the OG Offmeta Players, before LoL started going heavily for mechanics.

[@ade1174]

Old Poppy was such an oppressive pick when ahead.

[@yedesneycl]

Support MF was, is, will be the most off meta pick in LOL history and was AMAZING

[@bastianvalero4612]

oplolreplay is back? wow I used to watch all the highlights in this channel back in s3-s6

[@gwingcommander]

Sad you didn't include Huni's Cassiopeia top versus TSM at Worlds

[@xenon8938]

Yo where is Garen Yuumi in the botlane ? how can you forgot about this

[@keni4570]

7:15 I'm so surpised that both G2 and FNC were in LCS

[@Ceddidulli]

It was called the EU LCS

[@keni4570]

@@Ceddidulli 😮

[@alonesssheen3388]

Morg being gutted into oblivion that she can't be played in the solo lane is sad

[@Kruxi16]

the fact that soaz blitzcrank top is not on the list AND not even an honorable mention kinda saddens me...

[@saturos1643]

Sad not seeing M5 Darien picking Warwick top until it was banned :(

[@Sgt_Bacon189]

Looking back, Poppys ultimate was so absolutely busted to a point where it's not even funny.

[@MegaAlexWar]

Actually udyr pick was extra rare too when Diamondprox showed it

[@joeturcovsky5826]

What about the Garen/Yuumi bot lane that took over Worlds in I think 2019

[@R0S3N1337]

were is insec fiddlesticks world 2014. Best off meta

[@julianthomas2042]

Old Poppy in proplay is wild.

[@jebuzjaime]

I haven't finished the video, but if you picked Misfit's blitzcrank instead of their Leona with damage masteries that same best of 5. Edit. Okay good, that Leona is at least in honorable mentions

[@Skimbleshanks73]

15 times proplayers actually used their brains instead of picking the same champs over and over.

[@JeftherGabriel]

Garen Yuumi bot in Worlds S9, it actually became meta for that tournament

[@justinc8293]

Surprised that lemonnation veiger support isnt on here.

[@tam9586]

Shen jungle and rengar at worlds by SofM ?

[@jogleco]

How about Doinb Nautilus mid, back when G2 are doing some crazy picks, Doinb picks Nautilus and it's effective

[@Frstypwngaming]

No clue how Faker's olaf didnt make the list, none of DiamondProx's jungle picks completely changing the way the game was played didnt make the list, Edward's (GhostPepper) Elise or LeBlanc support didnt make the list...

[@arthurshock]

we cant forget about Yuumi + Garen in bot lane

[@itsnearlytime6287]

i'd totally agreed to this. But theres no Doinb in the list. He picked Malphite, Nautilus etc mid. And win worlds with this picks. He is not following the meta. HE IS THE META

[@theworst3028]

Bard picked in a game 5 of the Worlds Finals not being this list?

[@gaminginsidecar9098]

i was doing mf support weeks before i saw it at worlds..i knew i wasnt crazy..

[@WeiterHimmel05]

Didn't "TSM TheRainMain" pick Teemo and succeeded pretty hard once?

[@Kittytravel]

Trying to balance around your best players just ruins the game for your worst ones. The best players will make everything good. Support MF at Worlds proved that.

[@ultimatepotato5438]

Blitz crank is a high support pick on season 2.

[@JumboFe1337]

was hoping for the c9 teemo mid vs tsm

[@Jsalcedo23]

Damn what happened to this channel? Remember years ago when you did highlight videos

[@oplolreplay]

Highlights will return soon. Give it some time, will have everything covered on this channel.

[@Biditchoun]

Well now you can add Adam's Garen in this. And his Darius. And his Sett.

[@jirawatp2677]

No c9 teemo mid against tsm? It’s a fucking teemo and they did get a win with it.

[@Frstypwngaming]

If youre going to put ANYONES Kennen ADC on the list it better be Genja from M5.

[@GuTmANnNnNn]

For me there is no sound

[@oplolreplay]

That's weird, looks okay with me! Let me know if you can hear it now!

​@@oplolreplayyeah works thx

[@TheGermanLukeLP]

UOL Yorick pick is definitly missing

[@Scotty452]

no c9 soraka/ivern mid Xp

[@YDGSmokahontas]

No hate but if you want to do League content, youll be a lot more successful if you dont make yourself an obvious outsider. "LCS Major" for instance. Theres no such thing. It was the playoffs for the LCS split. Major isnt used in LoL. Calling Kikis "Keekees" hurt too. Love the video idea and i hope you keep making stuff but people will quickly dip out if you dont 1) Learn the scene a bit 2) add some actually personal flair instead of just rolling clips and 3) stop imitating a watch mojo list (they at least add commentary on each item) Hope you dont take it as hate and i wish you the best of luck.
