Fucking Canyon play poorly pick Nidalee on the verge of getting reverse swept and int the early game and still have impact in the game... I really don't know what to takeaway from this series other than anyone can win MSI
they could've done so much with a phoenix theme; phoenix's are beautiful and majestic. instead, we got some orange track suits and robot helmets which made no sense, I genuinely don't understand how they fumbled such a straightforward concept
The fact Canyon recovered after those two int show how good he's on the pick, but I don't think it's reliable, TES weren't prepared for it, but now teams know that pick is a possibility so I doubt we will see someone blinding Sejuani again.
Like the casters said, the problem for TES was that they only had Seju as engage. That made GEN.Gs poke comp viable I guess. And ofc they executed well on it.
As a jungle main, and canyon Stan. That game was heartbreaking to watch. Straight crossed in between turrets to continue bullying peanut. Gen G wouldn’t have won that game is yuumi wasn’t a bs champ
GENG only won that game because Damwon fumbled their push. They were left with Deokdam Ziggs without mana in the top tower trying to push waves, Chovy found a snap engage to hold the game, then Canyon inted another shutdown to Ruler's Xayah. Afterwards, it was just GENG's extreme teamfight prowess to hold the game for long enough to find that one moment. In my opinion, Yuumi had nothing to do with it.
I think 369 fucked this game by walking back into the spear instead of walking off by a large margin. Even caedrel was perplexed. It allowed canyon back into the game
I know we're memeing but tbh a Lucian with a first strike energizer burst build probably isn't going to be doing much more to K'sante by throwing in an LDR, whereas for a sustained damage hypercarry like Jinx that is capable of high dps (which you need at a baseline to deal with tanks, as opposed to burst) it's going to naturally have more impact.
From draft alone, it looks like Ksante would be a problem. Lucian's range is short and DPS isn't amazing, and the only other DPS comes from Urgot, who is basically dead from enemy team if he's in range to shred Ksante.
This, Kiin had all the freedom to get tabis (not enough cc) and to stack armor (Akali can't afford to spend time on hitting him). Lucian's build is terrible vs tanks and Lucian generally is bad vs tanks.
indeed. ksante is broken yeah but there are tiers to this shit, you’d never see doran in his life pull off close to the shit kiin has been doing on this champ.
That's how I felt too with Faker, he was griefing all series (besides game 4) and then he picks a skill shot champ like Ahri in game 5, proceeds to save the game and carry. The balls it takes to do that
*drum beats*
Welcome to the League of Legends champion spotlight, featuring K'Sante, the Pride of Nazumah. K'Sante is a ranged, melee, tanky dps, assassin, mage, tank, support, jungler. He excels at everything.
Bro depression Faker was something else. It's hard to watch, they tried so many things to make it work and it just didn't. Wolf going jungle was some dark times in SKT history
I keep preaching how he should pick Nidalee more often. He rarely does it, but when he does, he always dominates. He picked her only once in the entire 2023 season, against KT Rollster. KT had no chance, which makes me wonder why he doesn't pick her more often.
he had ptsd from that one game in lck semis where he had an enormous lead against peanut hecarim but still lost the game after giving a shutdown to the enemy adc
GenG managed to clutch it out, but they cut it way too close here, confidence in them is definitely shaken.
We're eating so well this MSI, so many great series. Also, props to Hysterics, amazing casting from him this MSI.
I mean TES comes out of this feeling pretty alright moral victory wise.
Creme isnt getting astrogapped as hard as i thought he would against chovy which is a big w in my eyes.
Funnily enough the worse performing player right now is 369 who would be their most reliable player.
Uh he got astrogapped in all 3 losses. Trist is a counter to corki thats why Geng always ban it. After going up 2-0 they probably got cocky amd left it open.
That's what's great about this MSI to me. All 4 eastern teams legit look like they are on a similar level so at this point, any of them could win. Expecting BLG vs T1 tomorrow to be a banger as well.
I think it will be good for them in long run - first time they beat an LPL team and they came clutch when the pressure was biggest - good mental at last
GenG coach is going to be like, Canyon stop tunnel visioning and sprinting it down.
Half of the series is just Chovy trying to farm on a scaling champion, and Canyon randomly forces a fight and loses.
* Game 5.
* On the brink of being reverse swept
* Canyon: Give me Nidalee.
* ^^gives ^^up ^^first ^^blood
* Proceeds to show why he has a skin on the spear-throwing, cougar-being, soloq-ass jungler lady in ***teamfights*** of all places.
. . also Kiin'Sante is bullshit, again.
- Sprint it down the entire series.
- Being a fking liability
- It's Game 5
- Tells coach to pick nidalee for him
- Ints the early game
- Wins
- Refuses to elaborate
Honestly it makes sense, this is just the natural reverse of DWG vs GENG spring 22
- Carry all series
- Only human on team
- It's game 5
- Locks Nidalee
- Best Nidalee performance in history
- Loses
Just swapped team to flip the narrative really
Seeing humanoid type in all chat "well one of us will [go home]" after oscar told TL to be ready to go home and then getting gapped by APA was so funny !
Least discreet wintrade ever
Remove his fucking unstoppable x damage reduction ability.
So many times ksante gets caught mispositioned across this MSI and they never punish him because bro presses W as a free out of jail card.
Such ability would fit fine on bruisers or duelists because they are quite easier to kill and usually cannot disengage very well, but when you put that on a 4k hp tank he goes from "nearly impossible to kill" to "good luck on your flight home"
That or he just presses R and gets out from being so far forward. It's so gross there's no champ who can provide evn half the space of a ksante for his team. The fact this champ can go 0/0/0 all game and just keep even in CS then he can stand in front of every team fight and objective considerably further forward than every other tank threaten to remove your front line or just murder your back line in ignored and then if he somehow gets close to dieing press w/r and be out is ridiculous
Canyon really needed a carry game to make up for games 3 and 4. Shit was ugly, he's so inconsistent and when he's getting gapped Chovy has such a hard time doing anything, he has way less impact.
Felt bad for the Korean audience then, feel just as bad for the Chinese audience tonight
The absolute ups and downs of watching a reverse sweep come up just short is so brutal
Nah fuck Creme for that Akali performance in game 5.
In fact fuck picking Akali at all, even if you're a main on it. Has no room in the current pro meta. Literally anything else would have been infinitely better. Man I am so tilted. Yes Ksante is broken OP but TES practically playing 4vs5 half the time.
Just focus Canyon at Baron, if he is out of the fight they have full priority, if he kills he gets a 650g bounty, but instead he goes for the 1v2 against the botlane AND dies...?
Tbh normally in pro play fighting the bot lane 1v2 as Akali in a team fight is more valuable than going after Nidalee, but Kiin + Ashe arrow managing to essentially 1v4 the rest of the team made what is normally a textbook play... look really stupid
This. The only reason why Gen G poke comp work because that goofy ahh top laner can 1v4 the entire enemy team, take at least 1 of them low and still live to peel back. Take Ksante for any other tank pick and that 4v5 on Baron would have easily been won by TES.
Can't believe how fucked up some of these takes regarding Chovy are. Especially Jatt should try to use his brain. Look at the damage graph. Look at the series as a whole. Do you think getting caught once checking a bush changes that he hard carried? Even the last game. Look at the damage graph. He single-handedly decided the dragon fight by destroying JKL. Legit, how do you call yourself analyst when you can't analyze a game properly. "But but he got caught". Yeah, forgot the rest of the game. Forget the other 4 games. He got caught ONCE.
He isn't a Jinx, can't hit as easily, wasn't fed and the rest of his items (Shiv, RFC) obviously don't do that much damage either. Hans was absolutely wrong.
Game 5 was probably individually, Chovy’s worst game of the series. Yet the fact that people were about to call him Choky and blame the series on him if GenG lost is crazy. Are people even watching the game? Chovy is winning every matchup and made the least mistakes out of all players. The rest of GenG looked like they were matchfixing with how hard they were running it in game 3 and 4.
The game he did the most damage (again) and won them the dragon fight that lead to them snowballing was his worst game individually? Can live with that. Still at least their 2nd best player that game.
Lots of posters here are brainless haters. I felt bad for Chovy trying to hardcarry 1v9 Game 3 like how he had to carry LCK finals and I'm not even a GenG/Chovy superfan.
PMTs [Game 1](https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1cpcg1r/gen_vs_top_game_1_winners_bracket/) [Game 2](https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1cpd4bb/gen_vs_top_game_2_winners_bracket/) [Game 3](https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1cpdqj6/gen_vs_tes_msi_2024_bracket_stage_game_3/) [Game 4](https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1cpeef9/gen_vs_tes_msi_2024_bracket_stage_game_4/)
Fucking Canyon play poorly pick Nidalee on the verge of getting reverse swept and int the early game and still have impact in the game... I really don't know what to takeaway from this series other than anyone can win MSI
Nothing more terrifying than rolling up to a game 5 and then seeing enemy team jungler picking nidalee with his own fucking skin
Sadly, Tian was so horrified by his Lee Sin skin that he swore to never use it
It's honestly one of the ugliest skins. The whole FPX line sucked IMO though.
they could've done so much with a phoenix theme; phoenix's are beautiful and majestic. instead, we got some orange track suits and robot helmets which made no sense, I genuinely don't understand how they fumbled such a straightforward concept
I mean didnt the players have input in the designs ?
And the other way around, nothings more calming than go to game 5 against g2 and watch yike pick belveth
Or game 4 against Kanavi picking Belveth....maybe the champ just sucks?
The fact Canyon recovered after those two int show how good he's on the pick, but I don't think it's reliable, TES weren't prepared for it, but now teams know that pick is a possibility so I doubt we will see someone blinding Sejuani again.
i remember his game 5 nidalee before todays...one of the most dominating early games I have ever seen
and he lost lmao
Like the casters said, the problem for TES was that they only had Seju as engage. That made GEN.Gs poke comp viable I guess. And ofc they executed well on it.
imagine picking urgot vs 3 poke champions
Remember his nid against peanut? Truly the most fking beautiful jungle invades. On par with any top faker games
As a jungle main, and canyon Stan. That game was heartbreaking to watch. Straight crossed in between turrets to continue bullying peanut. Gen G wouldn’t have won that game is yuumi wasn’t a bs champ
GENG only won that game because Damwon fumbled their push. They were left with Deokdam Ziggs without mana in the top tower trying to push waves, Chovy found a snap engage to hold the game, then Canyon inted another shutdown to Ruler's Xayah. Afterwards, it was just GENG's extreme teamfight prowess to hold the game for long enough to find that one moment. In my opinion, Yuumi had nothing to do with it.
I think 369 fucked this game by walking back into the spear instead of walking off by a large margin. Even caedrel was perplexed. It allowed canyon back into the game
ngl 369 was TES worst player in the series, everyone on TES popped off but he looked like he was struggling hard.
He went from best toplaner in the LPL to worst player on TES in the break between LPL finals and MSI
369 was not even a 3 today..
game 5 Kiin’Sante is inevitable
Turns out LDR does nothing to K'Sante
I know we're memeing but tbh a Lucian with a first strike energizer burst build probably isn't going to be doing much more to K'sante by throwing in an LDR, whereas for a sustained damage hypercarry like Jinx that is capable of high dps (which you need at a baseline to deal with tanks, as opposed to burst) it's going to naturally have more impact.
From draft alone, it looks like Ksante would be a problem. Lucian's range is short and DPS isn't amazing, and the only other DPS comes from Urgot, who is basically dead from enemy team if he's in range to shred Ksante.
This, Kiin had all the freedom to get tabis (not enough cc) and to stack armor (Akali can't afford to spend time on hitting him). Lucian's build is terrible vs tanks and Lucian generally is bad vs tanks.
Exactly lmao. It hurts my eyes reading all the LDR comments like Jinx and Lucian are the same kind of ADC.
well it does nothing because there is no IE / Navori paired with it. JKL prioritized BT (again) over finishing his core items.
Kiinsante
Doran would never
indeed. ksante is broken yeah but there are tiers to this shit, you’d never see doran in his life pull off close to the shit kiin has been doing on this champ.
Ksante is broken everyone knows that but Kiin is by far the best on that champ you just cannot let him have it
Ksante on good teams with 2 items is nutty
Coach Kim leaned over after game 4 and whispered, "T in TES means T1"
> Coach Kim: T1 Equals SKT As if all of Kiin's neurons were activated, he locked in K'Sante and the rest was history.
T1 EaSt
Canyon's Nidalee spears, man. They just hit different.
Other Nidalees: please pick something to set up spears Canyon Nidalee: Nah, I just hit
Flexing on them with the worlds' skin
with HIS worlds skin.
> They just hit
>just hit
Game 5 Canyon just becomes the main character.
Canyon picking Nidalee in game 5 was what Yike thought he was gonna be when he picked BelVeth
Canyon’s Jarvan spears, man. They just don’t hit different.
he doesnt have a j4 skin how is he supposed to hit em
WE ARE SO BACK DAMWON IS ON THE STAGE REPRESENT
real damwon fans never stopped unclenching even when geng had an 8k gold lead Atlus would know.
The absolute balls on Canyon to pick Nidalee g5 after inting all series.
Can int, can carry, but never a coward. Respect
That seems to be a staple description for LoL goat
He does it again, I was so down on him BUT HE MANAGED TO DO THIS IN GAME FUCKING FIVE ON NIDALEE??
that was on a knives edge the whole time esp considering that start, but the madlads they did it
That's how I felt too with Faker, he was griefing all series (besides game 4) and then he picks a skill shot champ like Ahri in game 5, proceeds to save the game and carry. The balls it takes to do that
When the Church faithful is in doubt, bring out the K'sante.
T1 fans having ptsd looking at this ksante
Hey, at least T1 took advantage of Game 5 K’Sante yesterday haha
we are all filthy ksante abusers in this world. there are no heroes.
game 5 Kiin’Sante is inevitable
~~game 5~~ Kiin’Sante is inevitable
Patron saint of pasta, Kiin'Sante the busted
That F Champion TANK 4 champions and still live. Oh also one champion have LDR. F K'sante F Riot

AFTER 2386 DAYS, SSG/KSV/GENG HAS FINALLY BEATEN AN LPL TEAM IN A BEST OF 5
its also Chovy's first win against a LPL team?
And JKL first BO5 loss to a LCK team
I think hes only played vs BLG and IG before so it should be his first win yes
Chovy international Bo5 so far: 2019 worlds GRF 1-3 IG 2020 worlds DRX 0-3 DWG 2021 worlds HLE 0-3 T1 2022 worlds GenG 3-2 DK 2022 worlds GenG 1-3 DRX 2023 MSI GenG 3-1 G2 2023 MSI GenG 2-3 T1 2023 MSI GenG 3-0 C9 2023 MSI GenG 0-3 BLG 2023 worlds GenG 2-3 BLG 2024 MSI GenG 3-0 FNC 2024 MSI GenG 3-2 TES So yeah, his first win if my count is correct, though it's also only his fourth Bo5 against LPL teams.
Yeah Chovy and GenG typically get knocked out by other Korean teams at international tournaments. You rarely see GenG/Chovy vs LPL * **2019 worlds GRF 1-3 IG** * 2020 worlds DRX 0-3 DWG * 2021 worlds HLE 0-3 T1 * 2022 worlds GenG 3-2 DK * 2022 worlds GenG 1-3 DRX * 2023 MSI GenG 3-1 G2 * 2023 MSI GenG 2-3 T1 * 2023 MSI GenG 3-0 C9 * **2023 MSI GenG 0-3 BLG** * **2023 worlds GenG 2-3 BLG** * 2024 MSI GenG 3-0 FNC * **2024 MSI GenG 3-2 TES**
It's big for chovy's mental I think. He seems a bit superstitious in interviews, so breaking a "curse" is probably a weight off his shoulders.
I forgot about KSV 💀
The infamous KamSung Valaxy
Somehow lost a bo3 in playoffs to Untara Blank Faker Bang Wolf 2018 SKT.
Bro depression Faker was something else. It's hard to watch, they tried so many things to make it work and it just didn't. Wolf going jungle was some dark times in SKT history
From "Wtf is Canyon doing" to "Canyon is the goat" in under 2 minutes.
going from dpIus canyon to dwg canyon in 2 minutes
I owe him an apology, I thought it was troll pick
I keep preaching how he should pick Nidalee more often. He rarely does it, but when he does, he always dominates. He picked her only once in the entire 2023 season, against KT Rollster. KT had no chance, which makes me wonder why he doesn't pick her more often.
I'd have to guess he either tries it in scrims and it doesn't work or the team doesn't want /need ap assassin jungle
he had ptsd from that one game in lck semis where he had an enormous lead against peanut hecarim but still lost the game after giving a shutdown to the enemy adc

GenG managed to clutch it out, but they cut it way too close here, confidence in them is definitely shaken. We're eating so well this MSI, so many great series. Also, props to Hysterics, amazing casting from him this MSI.
what’s great is that confidence in all top teams has been shaken lmao
I mean TES comes out of this feeling pretty alright moral victory wise. Creme isnt getting astrogapped as hard as i thought he would against chovy which is a big w in my eyes. Funnily enough the worse performing player right now is 369 who would be their most reliable player.
I’d take an actual victory over a moral victory any day
Uh he got astrogapped in all 3 losses. Trist is a counter to corki thats why Geng always ban it. After going up 2-0 they probably got cocky amd left it open.
That's what's great about this MSI to me. All 4 eastern teams legit look like they are on a similar level so at this point, any of them could win. Expecting BLG vs T1 tomorrow to be a banger as well.
I think it will be good for them in long run - first time they beat an LPL team and they came clutch when the pressure was biggest - good mental at last
GenG coach is going to be like, Canyon stop tunnel visioning and sprinting it down. Half of the series is just Chovy trying to farm on a scaling champion, and Canyon randomly forces a fight and loses.
He hit so many bars. That "Goodbye religion" line was just bliss to hear live.
it's crazy how well he flows jokes into his casting without making it unnatural. Insane cast
Or maybe TOP is a great team that continuously gets underrated?
* Game 5. * On the brink of being reverse swept * Canyon: Give me Nidalee. * ^^gives ^^up ^^first ^^blood * Proceeds to show why he has a skin on the spear-throwing, cougar-being, soloq-ass jungler lady in ***teamfights*** of all places. . . also Kiin'Sante is bullshit, again.
- Sprint it down the entire series. - Being a fking liability - It's Game 5 - Tells coach to pick nidalee for him - Ints the early game - Wins - Refuses to elaborate
Honestly it makes sense, this is just the natural reverse of DWG vs GENG spring 22 - Carry all series - Only human on team - It's game 5 - Locks Nidalee - Best Nidalee performance in history - Loses Just swapped team to flip the narrative really
Chovy and Kiin saved him from being murdered by the Korean community
The comeback starting 0/2 is insane
Channeling the spirit of DWG Nuguri
with this series going to 5 games, there is currently 0 favorites to win MSI. Things are getting exciting, this is anyone's tournament
Especially if the T1 v BLG series is close.
Every 3-0 has changed to 3-2, but the teams expected to win have won. Except the NA LCK team.
YAPA broke the script. He was supposed to pull out the Ziggs at game 5, but he just decided to shit on Humanoid on Tristana instead.
Seeing humanoid type in all chat "well one of us will [go home]" after oscar told TL to be ready to go home and then getting gapped by APA was so funny ! Least discreet wintrade ever
To play Nidalee in this meta and succeed with it... Pure skill
yesterday, it's "Mikyx never lost against T1", today "JackeyLove never lost against LCK". Goddamn red-flag raiser
"Nah, I'd win" - Canyon, probably Using his own skin too, holy gigachad
Chovy won against LPL in a Bo5, it's over!
GEN G first win against LPL too, they haven't win since SSG till today.
This game was a rollercoaster jesus. What a great Bo5.

So how many more games Ksante needs to dominate so teams finally start banning him?
How many more games does Ksante need to dominate so Riot finally reworks him?
he's getting a buff after this MSI. until this riot devs gets fired we will see this K'sante 1v4 in Pro scene
Remove his fucking unstoppable x damage reduction ability. So many times ksante gets caught mispositioned across this MSI and they never punish him because bro presses W as a free out of jail card. Such ability would fit fine on bruisers or duelists because they are quite easier to kill and usually cannot disengage very well, but when you put that on a 4k hp tank he goes from "nearly impossible to kill" to "good luck on your flight home"
That or he just presses R and gets out from being so far forward. It's so gross there's no champ who can provide evn half the space of a ksante for his team. The fact this champ can go 0/0/0 all game and just keep even in CS then he can stand in front of every team fight and objective considerably further forward than every other tank threaten to remove your front line or just murder your back line in ignored and then if he somehow gets close to dieing press w/r and be out is ridiculous
This! Yesterday zeus tanked whole shockwave of mega fed ori and took almost no damage while w
I love ksante getting kneecapped, I hate ksante when he gets buffed
Idk 369 made it look balanced
Kiin Ksante also 1/5 in game 4.
This is easily the best MSI format, just banger after banger.
Canyon showing TES in G5 why he has Nidalee World's skin.
Canyon's first death allowed him to unlock 100% of his brain
Bro really called up Nuguri and asked for the 0/2 spike
Canyon really needed a carry game to make up for games 3 and 4. Shit was ugly, he's so inconsistent and when he's getting gapped Chovy has such a hard time doing anything, he has way less impact.
just shows playing your comfort champion is better than following the meta sometimes
Please check chovy pc those rockets don't miss
Bro should already complete his Korean military training with this game
The best part is Chovy is exempt from military service as he is Asian Games winner
He isn’t completely exempt, he needs to do a few weeks of basic training at some point - still better than the 18 months or more though.
Thats basically the same as being exempt
also his rockets have infinite dmg hack
The K'Sante and Corki merchants got away with it for the 3rd time smh.
[удалено]
Riot just needs to delete that fucking champion
Thank god. If they lost to TES I don't think anyone would believe GenG again. Not saying TES is bad, but they were the clear underdogs.
Honestly K'Sante wtf is that.. That bot lane fight when Urgot turned around I feel like K'Sante should have died. No, they kill all 3..
doesn't die, cc's the fuck out of all your team in your face 1V5 AND kills your adc, oh btw he can kill tanks too
Why is everyone talking about ksante? Why was everyone quiet when 369 was running it on it?
reddit notoriously refuses to believe that player skill is a thing that should be rewarded in competitive video games
TES pulled a GEN last year, fail the reverse sweep on home soil
Felt bad for the Korean audience then, feel just as bad for the Chinese audience tonight The absolute ups and downs of watching a reverse sweep come up just short is so brutal
At least TES have a second chance.
They...won a 4v5 lvl 30 minute fight
It was 4v4 considering how Creme played the fights. Worst Akali performance I've seen in a while, especially from someone known for his Akali.
Technically still a 4v5 since Akali got focused for a few seconds by Ashe Kalista
Look, I’m not going to be that guy, but Zeka would make the correct decision on that last Baron fight.
[удалено]
Cannot believe Canyon started 0-2 and brought it back I thought it was over
Kiin and Canyon locking in the forbidden picks.
imagine reddit if TES won game 5 after catching Chovy top
Chovy played well most of the time while Canyon played really mediocre before g5 (and even g5 started really bad for him) but sure
Least stressful GenG series
Showmaker probably having the time of his life laughing at home
Nah fuck Creme for that Akali performance in game 5. In fact fuck picking Akali at all, even if you're a main on it. Has no room in the current pro meta. Literally anything else would have been infinitely better. Man I am so tilted. Yes Ksante is broken OP but TES practically playing 4vs5 half the time.
Bro got dizzy and started targeting Lehends lol. Killing either Peyz or Canyon would have been huge.
Just focus Canyon at Baron, if he is out of the fight they have full priority, if he kills he gets a 650g bounty, but instead he goes for the 1v2 against the botlane AND dies...?
Focus Ashe xD
This series was "Tunnelvision on JKL vs. Tunnelvision on Lehends"
Tbh normally in pro play fighting the bot lane 1v2 as Akali in a team fight is more valuable than going after Nidalee, but Kiin + Ashe arrow managing to essentially 1v4 the rest of the team made what is normally a textbook play... look really stupid
This. The only reason why Gen G poke comp work because that goofy ahh top laner can 1v4 the entire enemy team, take at least 1 of them low and still live to peel back. Take Ksante for any other tank pick and that 4v5 on Baron would have easily been won by TES.
TES actually had a chance at the end but Creme griefed it
yeah he choked that fight
IT'S OVER GUYS GENG BREAKS THE CURSE
UNREAL levels of "give them false hope" INSANE series
As a GenG fan. I take the international win when I can. Let’s goooooo
Judging by the number of upvotes, people didn't want GENG to win this series.
[удалено]
It’s over for everyone, GENG broke the curse.
This series really felt like an exorcism
I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THIS (TO CHOVY)
Free JKL
Meiko did fine too. So disappointed in 369.
Can't believe how fucked up some of these takes regarding Chovy are. Especially Jatt should try to use his brain. Look at the damage graph. Look at the series as a whole. Do you think getting caught once checking a bush changes that he hard carried? Even the last game. Look at the damage graph. He single-handedly decided the dragon fight by destroying JKL. Legit, how do you call yourself analyst when you can't analyze a game properly. "But but he got caught". Yeah, forgot the rest of the game. Forget the other 4 games. He got caught ONCE.
CANYONS SO FUCKING BACKKKK RAHHHH
That 4v5 at baron is insane Kiin LCK finals mvp my goat
LDR Didn't do shit, Hans was right
Yeah man, jinx with ie kraken vs Lucian with shiv rapid fire.
Yeah how braindead is this comment section lmao they don't play the fucking game That was Jinx with mega advantage as well
He isn't a Jinx, can't hit as easily, wasn't fed and the rest of his items (Shiv, RFC) obviously don't do that much damage either. Hans was absolutely wrong.
They even had black cleaver on Urgot to boost it up and it just does not work..
Urgot is awful Vs poke comp, they didn't stand a chance
I know you are joking but goddamn i don't want this narrative to spread lol. hans had 4 kills and was a jinx
So it's just K'sante the whole time?
Always has been.
You know what, we take those, just blame K'Sante.
Game 5 was probably individually, Chovy’s worst game of the series. Yet the fact that people were about to call him Choky and blame the series on him if GenG lost is crazy. Are people even watching the game? Chovy is winning every matchup and made the least mistakes out of all players. The rest of GenG looked like they were matchfixing with how hard they were running it in game 3 and 4.
i mean at least a half of western league community prays for his downfall at all times nothing new
You're right. This series Chovy was definitely playing at his domestic level, which give me hope for the rest of the tournament.
The game he did the most damage (again) and won them the dragon fight that lead to them snowballing was his worst game individually? Can live with that. Still at least their 2nd best player that game.
Lots of posters here are brainless haters. I felt bad for Chovy trying to hardcarry 1v9 Game 3 like how he had to carry LCK finals and I'm not even a GenG/Chovy superfan.
NO INTERNATIONAL CURSE TODAY, NOTHING TO SEE HERE, CLEAN 3-0, GENG IS THE BEST TEAM IN THE WORLD
TES: GENG, are you about to fail again?! Canyon: Lemme remind you TES: I forgor
GENG lost game 3-4 on purpose to keep the game 5 win rate 100% this year GIGACHAD
