I hope they give Jayce actual greek god looks, I think that could be really cool.

Corejj and Impact won fucking Worlds in Korea before going to NA. They weren’t developed in NA.

Jensen is still an import, but at least you can make the argument that he never played in EU (only because Riot bent the rules and unbanned him when C9 was interested in him). You can make a weaker argument about Bjergsen who barely played in EU.

To me, all 4 are imports. They only stop being imports if they get citizenship. And no, a greencard is not the same as citizenship, it’s just permanent residency. And I don’t think any of them have gotten citizenship.

You can definitely see the help just in draft. T1 had like a completely evolved view of draft, meanwhile Weibo were just doing the same things we had seen all throughout the tournament.

Peak Faker was probably in 2015 or 2016. Back then, the gap between him and other players was at its biggest. He was still pulling out crazy picks mid back then, while roaming all the time, and while being up in cs.

Deft is a great player but he has had some huge blunders internationally. I also remember the game he picked Jayce with tp and he teleported right next to himself because he thought he had heal.

He wasn’t even in the top 3.

Also, he barely played soloqueue last year. He is averaging 5 games a week in split 2.

I thought Xiaohu had only won MSI 2 times, but you are right, he’s won 3 times. Kind of crazy, especially because this is the first time he makes Worlds finals.

This is also on Riot. I have been saying it for years, but the last thing players should be thinking about when playing at Worlds is where they are going to play the following year.

And yet teams all start making plans while Worlds is still going on. There should be some rule or something in place, absolutely 0 talk about roster changes from when the LEC ends to when Worlds ends.

If you watch the clip, JDG had a total of 4 wards on T1’s red side jungle.

The problem was Ruler thought he was completely safe but the ward on the bottom bush in midlane didn’t fully cover the exit to the river. T1 actually spotted the ward (you can see it get marked for the blue team which was T1), and Zeus managed to take advantage of the tiny vision gap that JDG had.

Still a big blunder for a pro player to be caught shopping in a Worlds semifinals though.

The post says the most popular in the LPL, so I believe they are saying they were the most popular before Worlds. Which is surprising, I thought it was EDG.
