@@ndnd7614 Insane take. Chovy was non existent for half this series and Faker literally carried his team on his back. Chovy tried doing that with a better comp and an insanely fed, scaling carry and positioned like shit. Let's not even talk the tank Azir game. Chovy was insane for 2 games and good for 2 more. Faker showed he's more useful outside laning phase than Chovy and more clutch in general. Destroyed? Not even close. Faker and Chovy showed out, each with a lackluster game.
