Rekkles... How Good Was He?

[@adithyakuricheti1725]

It is sad to see one of the most decorated players in EU history being scapegoated out of the LEC. The west hasnt seen an adc that can go up against the likes of the eastern players since 2020. Him and perkz set a high standard for the level of output an adc has to deliver in order to win games internationally. Everyone always calls him a passive, KDA player, etc. but also forget that he did perform when it mattered, going up against the likes of prime uzi, teddy, jackeylove, he has always put up a strong fight internationally and been a reliable member to his teams. Its sad to see his last split in the LEC was with players who didnt bother playing around him at all. No matter what, in the end, he will always be known as a remarkable marksman in eu history and The King in the North

[@IAmBlueBuff]

Are you me because it's almost like I wrote this comment myself. I can't agree more with everything you've just said and looking back it is such a shame what ended up happening in the LEC after 2020. I just hope all the players who deserve better and are just blocked by senseless drama get their chances when it matters. Thank your for your very insightful comment and yes Rekless will always be remembered as one of the best ADCs in the history of the EU. Nothing will change that

@@IAmBlueBuff i started watching LoL since 2019 worlds, so my experience has revolved around watching rekkles in his prime and in a team that gave resources to him, sad to see people not realise it’s his teams that are not maximising his potential

[@ahkilleuskosmos6836]

It's bizarre to me that so many people these days only know him for his support play, to me Rekkles will always be the single greatest Western ADC of all time, he was one of the first Western players to prove that he could consistently go toe to toe against the likes of other all-time greats from the East like Bang, and Uzi.

Agreed. I've followed League Esports for a decade and he's a top tier ADC first in my book.

[@anyuan3040]

God willing, when he gets into LEC with LR, he will also be the single greatest western Support of all time, I sincerely think they can reach worlds in 2/3 years and there he will go toe to toe against even Keria. LR world champions 2026 or 2027 (maybe both ?), let's go !

[@KemiKaze]

He could? Lol

[@siayvo]

Rekkles is my goat. I started playing and watching LoL the same year when Nemesis joined Fnatic, so him and Rekkles became my favorite players. It's so amazing to see them reunited after all the years.

[@IAmBlueBuff]

Definitely mine as well! It is such a beautiful twist of fate to see them back together, honestly. Even though I started watching league way before then I still feel oddly nostalgic about that time period

[@NebulaTheCosmicalSpectacle]

Man, Rekkles and Hylli were considered one of if not the strongest botlaners in the entire world at the time, "The Professor" and "The King of the North" always got heavy praise and respect from the top eastern players back then. It's crazy how it seemed like people just stopped respecting him overnight somehow, but it's not like he's the only one on Ratones who got scapegoated, both him and Nemesis got done dirty. it always perplexed me how teams choose to put him by himself while completely focusing on having a carry top jungle or jungle mid synergy instead of trying to utilize him..

[@jakeryan2168]

I'm literally watching league of legends content again because Rekkles is back with a team and seeming happy. That and LR just are a fun team. Really hope they make LEC.

[@filipmudroch6020]

I value Rekkles as a player but above that as a person. His story, his personality, his journey and how he speaks and expresses himself got me. Happy for him so much and hope he and the whole LR will have amazing fun!

100%. He has always been a class act and you can tell he is a very kind soul. It seems like all of the players are enjoying their journey with Los Ratones so far and I sincerely hope they continue doing so

Thanks for reminding people of how good Rekkles was back in the day. I'm a long time League player but I had to take a break due to my studies and it was the 2018 Fnatic run at Worlds that got me back into League. I'm more of a T1 fan but I had a lot of respect for that version of Fnatic and Rekkles. Glad he got another shot in T1A and Los Ratones after what he's been through the past couple of years.

[@IAmBlueBuff]

First off, I hope your studies went great! As a long time League of Legends esports fan myself as well I think 2018-2019 era of western League was something so magical and I kind of miss that... Like yourself I'm really glad players like Rekkles and Nemesis are getting their second shots with Los Ratones

[@Rhaegom]

I've been following Rekkles's career since 2013 when there were rumors a 15yr old was lined up to replace Puszu after worlds, and that it only hadn't happened yet because he needed to be 16 to play in the LEC. Rekkles will and always has been one of my GOATs of the west. This video made me very happy to see that other people remember the times when Rekkles WAS the west, and conversations of the west were about who was better between Doublelift and Rekkles, and it always came down to the fact that Rekkles was just so damn consistent at international events. I'll be buying a LR Rekkles jersey as soon as I can, just like I did T1A Rekkles

[@jmir1]

We are in Sweden. And we have a new Swedish superteam with Rekkles and Messi now

[@IAmBlueBuff]

It's a dream come true for sure :D

[@DutchGamesHDNL]

Rekkles never fell off as an ADC. 1) G2 2021 despite failing at play-offs and Worlds qualifications still dominated Europe throughout the regular season and Rekkles was clearly the stand-out player of the squat despite some behind the scenes issues with the team. 2) He did more than fine during his time in KC and won EUM as well. 3) His time in FNC 2023 had him playing lane alongside Rhuckz and Advienne. There was little that he could do to salvage that situation ALONG with issues with the team internally. 4) As the video says, ADC as a role fell off hard.

[@moratropolis]

If you think about "good" western ADCs nowadays like Hans Sama, and you see them facing the monsters from China and LCK they look just like Platinum Players. Needles to say current top tier adcarrys are nowhere close to how good Uzi and Jackeylove were. Matter of fact: uzi was the equivalent to Faker in his position during faker's prime, and Rekkles was at his level. If you think about that, Caps hasn't been able to prove himself against the best of the best, but Rekkles did. That's why all eastern players recognize him

[@zoid_on_youtube]

to be fair when Hans is locked in he can be very good, he just doesnt seem to be able to do that very consistently

[@OGKillerBee99]

As a career Rekkles supporter, there has only been a point in Rekkles career where it was expected that he'd outperform anyone in the world, which was in 2020 Summer playoffs and Worlds where his botlane wrecked Perkz/MikyX repeatedly, defeated Ruler and then absolutely destroyed JackeyLove - that part of Rekkles career was the peak of western botlanes. In the rest, as a concept, Uzi was generally a tier above. Rekkles is easily the western ADC GOAT and I can debate anyone saying otherwise, but saying Rekkles was at Uzi's level during Uzi's peak is pushing it a bit. We do, however, sorely miss a player in his weight class that can join a lobby with other worldclass ADCs and feel like he belongs there

[@Gurpreet-sv5zg]

Uzi was never dominant in ADC to what Faker was. Hell, Deft making uzi his bitch was common in the LPL.

Thank you for making the video, honestly felt like Rekkles just became a meme( much like Perkz) and nobody ever talks about how great he actually was for sooo many years. And he is still a great player, I just think the lec punishses players so easily for things that sometimes the players cant control. Either way, a very well made video!

[@IAmBlueBuff]

Thank you for your kind words and yeah it's such a big shame what happened to players like Perkz, Rekkles and Nemesis...

[@Riryz]

People made jokes about him not even playing at Worlds, but just being a sub for T1 already shows you that he still is a good player. He was such a strong player in the LEC and then he just got shafted by his orgs near the end of his LEC career. Unfortunately for some reason people decided that he was the problem and gave him a lot of sh*t for no reason.

[@DictionaryBulletBill]

Im glad you made this video because i have similarly been feeling like people somehow just forgot that this guy was top 2 best players we have ever seen in the lec (other 1 being caps). Somehow people just came to know him as a kda player

[@IAmBlueBuff]

And I'm glad you took the time to watch it. Thank you! With all the ups and downs Rekkles has one of the best resumes by a western player ever so I thought that shouldn't be forgotten especially by the newer fans

[@armaslohemadu]

Been getting your videos recommended by the algorithm, love the clean editing and scripts. Have to say i never was into the competitive scene but got massive respect for Baus ever since i stumbled across his Korea arc with prowlers sion. So following LR news and games has been really entertaining

[@IAmBlueBuff]

I'm glad you found your way to here and enjoyed your time! Baus Korea arc was an incredible journey for sure and just like you Los Ratones really ignited the old passion I had for League esports as well. Can't thank them enough for that...

[@armaslohemadu]

@IAmBlueBuff Absolutely. Im mechanically pretty shit so i always despised hyper mobile champions (rivens, fioras, katarinas etc). Their outplays never felt "fair" to me because of the amount of resources available. So watching Baus wreck things in Korea on Sion. He got my instant and everlasting respect. The micromovements and the vision plays, bringing the champion to its limits to outplay with very telegraphed and slow abilities. It might be a bit of a silver take but in my mind that is always more impressive than the hypermobile plays

[@martinhoang9217]

Velja has had some big game carry's but for me his ability to make people feel good when they are losing is actually his best quality. i think he single handedly saved all their scrim games when the mood was low.

I'd say I'm a pretty big Rekkles fan and even I know these comments are crazy glaze so I'll give you all a year by year rundown of how good he actually is/was as someone who has seen every game of his live (not in studio obviously). - 2014 1st-2nd best AD in EU, not a factor internationally. Pretty good year and when I became a fan. - 2015 3-4th best AD in EU, not a factor internationally. Meh year for Rekkles himself, FNC pretty heavily carried by Huni/Reignover in summer and we ignore Element fiasco. - 2016 3rd-5th best AD in EU Didn't play internationally. His Worst year pre-2022. - 2017 1st-3rd best AD in EU, played decent internationally. EU ADCs were really good this year but still not a match for peak Eastern ADCs. - 2018 1st best AD in EU. Showed world class skill internationally. First year as a true world class player, not quite elite level but close. - 2019 2nd-3rd best AD in EU. Showed world class skill internationally. Once again world class but not quite elite. - 2020 1st-2nd best AD in EU. Elite tier world class internationally. Rekkles' individual peak. I'd say he was the best ADC at worlds and could go toe to toe with anyone. - 2021 2nd best AD in EU. Didn't play internationally. This was a really rough year to watch but individually he was world class but not elite. After 2021 there's not much good to say so we'll skip it and I'll let you draw whatever conclusions you want to from this but lets relax with the glaze.

[@OGKillerBee99]

2015 was the Kennen year where he traumatized Deft at Worlds, he definitely was a strong factor internationally and it's a considerable disservice to say he was 3-4th in EU after Summer split and Playoffs. The Elements disaster deserves a mention but him being an atomic bomb level of upgrade over Steelbaack was exactly what galvanized the team. 2015 FNC... streets will never forget. The rest I could tune it up a little bit in a few points but owning some disagreements to personal opinion, only 2015 I felt like being a contention point worth commenting on.

[@blobitz9648]

​@@OGKillerBee99 Yeah, that's just not true. You can't just cherry pick moments of a year or tournament and then give credit. Rekkles for literally half the year (first split and MSI) was not even a top 5 adc. Elements was a terrible team and everyone was awful so there is that but that doesn't change the fact his individual play also declined. The second half of the year he was 2-3rd best adc depending on where you placed niels/zven. At this point Forgiven was at his peak (meta was also great for him) and even Rekkles himself has said Forgiven was the best in 2015. You add these two splits together and you're not getting higher then 3-4 best EU adc for the year of 2015. As far as worlds goes I implore you to go back and carefully watch Rekkles in both the EDG and KOO series. His Kennen play in the EDG series is actually completely average, made to look good by racking up kills in fights that Viktor carries and in the KOO game it's absolutely horrible. Moreover, as much as I hate to say it he was also the weakest point of the team in 2015. There's no argument when it comes to Huni/Reignover being the driving force behind that team but even Febiven was going crazy that whole year and especially in the EDG/KOO series. I Guarantee you rewatch the series you will change your opinion because he absolutely was not a strong factor.

[@OGKillerBee99]

@@blobitz9648 Lots of oopsies there. Forg1ven was definitely the best regular Spring split ADC with SK during that year but that roster fell off a cliff and fumbled right at Spring playoffs. Forg1ven was irrelevant for the rest of the season placing almost bottom with Gambit. Rekkles was also at Elements by that time so we'd be hard pressed to find ADCs who didn't perform better than him individually during Spring. For Summer I'm actually trying to understand why I'd place Niels above Rekkles when Niels was consistently outperformed when they faced each other (both supports were great in 2015 even if we agree that Yellowstar was superior). Let alone the rest of the season where having Rekkles being one of the best weakside ADCs we've seen was a driving component of why FNC shitstomped the whole league - it's not random that the season where "Rekkles passive in lane" begins when FNC has the best split since its conception. "Getting carried" doesn't really work either there as Rekkles also had the second highest kill participation in the team (behind Yellowstar). I'm surprised to see you asking me to "watch Worlds" to explain how Rekkles wasn't a factor? Whole series EDG's botlane was completely fucked by having no idea what to do about Rekkles champion pool - Rekkles carries first game together with Febiven, second game they force a Kennen ban and Rekkles/Yellowstar still go even, then third game they force a Meiko Kennen pick and EDG botlane gets dismantled again by Rekkles Sivir. Rekkles was, together with Febiven, the very obvious reasons why FNC curbstomped that EDG roster and it's extremely dishonest to say otherwise, as it sure wasn't Huni going mostly even against Koro1 doing it (besides second game). Against KOO all of them got outclassed and outperformed, doesn't work in this argument either. I really don't respect minimizing his contribution to that 2015 roster over being less flashy during Summer regular split,

[@blobitz9648]

@@OGKillerBee99 On the topic of Forgiven, argue with Rekkles himself, not me. I support his opinion because I believe it's more informed and more accurate then mine. Niels wasn't outperformed individually, that's not true at all. I think the main issue we're having here is the metrics by which you are measuring his level of play. The singular best way of judging how an ADC's individual skill is to imagine which other players would succeed less/equally/more in his position and frankly the games in which Rekkles has high KDAs and Kill participation aren't representative of him playing well, but him being in a very easy position to do his job. The argument for Niels/Zven that year was always that Niels would perform just as well on Fnatic as Rekkles does but Rekkles wouldn't perform as well as Niels on OG (Personally I don't agree or disagree with this as I always believed them to be about equally good in 2015). I will give you that Rekkles Kennen pick gave them a draft advantage but there's absolutely no world in which he carried the first game. The second game he is getting absolutely stomped in the 2v2 until mid game where FNC's top side advantage allows good lane transitions for him to catch up and third game is actually his only impressive gave in the 6 series games he plays. Now against KOO you say all of them got outclassed (Febiven didn't btw) and even if that were true it would be completely irrelevant. This isn't a conversation about how good FNC played throughout worlds but how good Rekkles did individually and Rekkles' play in that series was absolutely the worst series he has ever played. If you go back and watch his play and imagine anyone else in his position you'll be hard pressed to think of any player top5 in their region that would play that badly. I'm not diminishing his contribution at all, being the 2nd-3rd best ADC in EU is hardly a bad thing but the facts as far as his individual play and worlds performance speak for themselves. Honestly you say I minimalize his contribution and don't respect that but to that I'll say something that I think is the most annoying thing about being an objective Rekkles fan. The fan base being majority delusional (some a lot, some a small amount) has created a ecosystem where anyone not a fan now discredits him unduly. This has left me as the minority who is called both a hater and a glazer by either side and as such it's hard to respect any of you when this topic comes up.

[@OGKillerBee99]

@@blobitz9648 The issue is you placing yourself as an "objective Rekkles" fan and claiming for 2015 that he wasn't a factor internationally plus saying he was 3rd-4th best AD in EU while ignoring Elements. It's just objectively wrong and you're words heavily go against that initial description. You have literally just acknowledged how Rekkles champ pool was a factor (down to the point of forcing a Jayce bot pick, let's get serious man) against the MSI winners and to putting him at similar level as Niels for Summer. I'm not even going over the Febiven glaze during that KOO series where he gets outclassed whole series, including the LeBlanc game, because he did have a great year and it's a disservice to say otherwise. I could cherry pick other stuff you said but I only found that 2015 portion to be very disconnected to what the reality was during that season. Lot of fluff hidden in there but there will always be someone who'll catch on easily and that will always be the problem with Rekkles conversations. Can't be writing so many words just to backtrack immediatly when facts hit the table.

[@lewis2443]

“Was” sure buddy

[@banker3417]

look how adc are doing dmg in these clips, feel like adcs are so weak right now. Im not even a adc main and i can notice that

[@banker3417]

said it before u talk about the same xD. im not in sweden

[@IAmBlueBuff]

It was pretty much a different game compared to what we have right now for better or worse but it is clear that the adcs are just not as impactful as they used to be...

[@aghileslounis]

G2 destroyed him.

[@ChickenFlash808]

u mean more like "Rekkles... How Good Is He?" no?

[@IAmBlueBuff]

Well yeah of course. I wanted to focus more on his career prior to the role swap so that's why I went with that title. I still totally get where you're coming from

[@c0mmyn1st35]

I did not really feel you explained something how good he was and simply called out some stats

[@IAmBlueBuff]

Thank your for your feedback! It was just a quick video glancing over some important stats and moments and I'm trying my best to make longer videos soon

[@Himosika]

as a Finnish i hate all the Swedish to my very core. But i like Caedral, and this Los Ratones project is so awesome that i gotta love it. I will be laughing in my beard off when NLC has 2025 more viewers than LEC :D

[@yarikvasilev3965]

new video eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[@IAmBlueBuff]

Exactly! Hopefully more on the way

[@ynniVinny]

Who trashtalk Rekkles, atleast not know anything of him. Rekkles was and it is one of the best player in the WORLD.

[@YildirimOguzhan]

You're %100 Turkish

[@Jeans11234567]

The new FAKER!!

[@roctiskravei8832]

its just so-so

[@Darkhonores]

Still IMO the greatest European player we've had, if not that atleast the greatest ADC. Bro could rival the greatest ADC from china and Korea and was even respected by them which it honestly doesnt feel like today after seeing this years worlds. Bro also basically invented kennen ADC during S7 and when the other teams tried to replicate that they failed. He may not be the most decorated player nor greatest anymore because that probably belongs to caps and im probably glazing but i think that prime fnc with rekkles would've had a bigger chance than prime g2 with caps at winning worlds.

[@OGKillerBee99]

Prime FNC was 2018 when Caps was the midlaner, to be fair. I don't think it's contestable to say Caps is the western GOAT, as he has the consistency to say he has been, with very few exceptions, the best midlaner in the West almost uninterrupted since 2018. Rekkles floated here and there, was barely ever below top2 in EU and had considerable peaks, but with accolades together it's rough to put Rekkles over Caps. Love them both though

[@benja4578]

Alright, but his legs never stopped shaking whenever facing Forg1ven.

[@clickaclacka4202]

NA fan that grew up idolizing Sneaky internationally and DL domestically, Rekkles was the only EU adc I cared for until Perkz arrived. Those four were my only hopes against the eastern adc monsters in Uzi and Bang at the time (JackeyLove honorable mention)

[@Apoz]

Only the real fans know that Rekkles is actually SIV HD. NO sweat, on FIRE hat.

[@FloatLikeABee]

Really bad.

[@theotheodorou1374]

imagine thinking rekkles was good , he was so overhyped until forgiven did the first solo bot camera and put his pants down... wake up delusionals

[@strider-pubgmobile757]

peak ratones content

[@IAmBlueBuff]

Glad you think so and that's always the goal
