I’ve seen a lot of people talk about how fortunate T1 is that this ranged bot lane meta is happening right when they are making their worlds run. I’ve also seen people argue that T1 is the one that redefined the meta and that without Keria, everyone would still be prioritizing Xayah/Kai’sa. On one hand, it’s hardly like ranged supports were absent in the Swiss stage and quarters with champs like Renata, Milio, and a few others being picked a decent amount. On the other hand, it’s also true that following T1 vs LNG, bot lane priority has completely shifted with melee supports basically disappearing on both sides of the bracket. Which side do you lean towards?
The fact that there are double ADCs bot lane, is definitely T1’s doing, the fact that it’s Azir, Ori mid and carry top laners, is just the natural meta shift with hyper ADCs being weak.
To note, only Faker has won on Azir vs Ori. He gave everyone else false hope that it could work for them.
