Obviously when I say “best team to ever play” I am not saying they would beat 2023 teams. That would be foolish given how the game has evolved so much since then

What I’m saying is that the gap between the very best team and number 2 was never as big as it was in Winter 2013/14 with T1 K achieving a perfect 15-0 record in OGN, beating the likes of Blaze,Samsung Blue,KT Bullets and Samsung Ozone (who’d rename to White a few months later) without dropping a single game and in a very stompy fashion aside of like 1 or 2 games vs the Bullets…

T1 K was making Samsung surrender at 20 minutes while Faker was flexing with Riven MID !!! That was a Samsung roster which had DanDy,Imp,Mata and Looper already.

His Nidalee game vs SSB in quarters is the most impressive mid Nidalee performance in league history to me. He made Deft’s and Pawn’s lives literal hell by hitting every single spear he threw.

Impact was at his best back then, same for Bengi, Piglet and Poohmandu.

I’d rank the most dominant teams relative to their competition in that order personally

Winter T1 K > Worlds 2015 T1 > Worlds 2014 SSW > Worlds 2020 DWG

And if SKT beats WBG without going to 5 games I believe they’ll take the 5th spot.

    2018 IG is the highest peak of any team ever. All 5 players were peaking at the right time and they are unbeatable.

      Is this a joke?

      2018 IG lost 6 games at Worlds in total and their best performances came against Western teams.

        look at all 5 players and tell me which role for T1 is better besides mid
