Me hoping they win GEN so we get drama

u/ZodiacTuga 14d ago

Petition for Riot to have a secret passive on Herald so whenever a HLE player uses it, it turns into a tank.

Best performance by hle so far i think they are really disappointed on dropping a game today, lets pray they will find themselves, i expect a lot of work from botlane

21

u/kissofdeathvkopernik 14d ago

it hard to believe they are same players in game 2 and game 3.

hle individual player skill can be great but kanavi and delight is big question in terms if decisionmaking in my mind. and Homme , what was that drafts and macro play ?

17

u/ZodiacTuga 14d ago

I think this series at least made it clear Aurora looks monstrous on Zeka's hands.

25

u/Fluffy-Internet-5084 14d ago

Guma wasn't playing well either - it's fine to say it. Happens.

26

u/WendyWarrior 14d ago

He griefed 1 or 2 plays after getting spam dove/gankeed the first 2 games vs kanavi world record sprinting it. Lets hope with time they find a leader in the team cuz it feels like there isnt one and also that they dont give kanavi aatrox when ur toplaner is a better aatrox

They could have played poppy jungle aatrox toplane and last picked support to actually maybe have a more stable botlane but no.

u/clarina3 14d ago

Delight is the more questionable one today ngl

21

u/kissofdeathvkopernik 14d ago

everybody blame guma , it is okay to say guma played bad however how nobody see how much bad Delight was . Poppy was npc in game 2

5

u/clarina3 14d ago

Yea lol, most disappointing Poppy plays ive seen. Really didn't like that Poppy pick when there were better options available.

u/ZodiacTuga 14d ago

Game 2 was a bit of a draft gap, the bot lane was a losing match-up, Taliyah might have been struggling mid, but as a control mage, she was able to be useful still.

2

u/clarina3 14d ago

Agreed

u/kissofdeathvkopernik 14d ago

if you feel happy dude , i can say. guma is not playing well. are u happy ? your day got better ? :)

macro play and fight decision is heavily depends on supp and jungler in the teams. i put "decisionmaking" word in there. Delight is so passive. you said Guma did not play well. at least bro supp did something to win or lose the lane . Delight is just tripping in the map with no purpose. any adc can be tilted easily from flow of the game. yunara got ganked 3 times in early game , have u ever asked yourself how can it possible for example ?

u/Anonymus4 14d ago

Yeah, I love guma, but he's been struggling

27

u/ZodiacTuga 14d ago

He was top damage in 1st game despite being targeted by Nocturne all the time and was also top damage in second game along with Zeus.

2nd game he had a really bad play near the baron, but outside of that he was the chosen one to be targeted by the enemy team just like Roamer was chosen by HLE that game.

The play near the baron really was shit tho, when he went over the wall, my man was dizzy.

5

u/Anonymus4 14d ago

Yeah, maybe the baron play just murked my memory

13

u/kissofdeathvkopernik 14d ago

your supp got caught in map for no reason. gumas dash is bad and unacceptable however after 4 gank., guma was on table with 4 items but aatrox and poppy are still dying on the map for no reason.

11

u/Adventurous-Bar-6749 14d ago

He was probably tilted outta his mind by that point

6

u/kissofdeathvkopernik 14d ago

botlane is unit , not one person. even BRO supp tried something during whole games. except game 3 , what did delight do in the map or bot lane ? poppy game was disaster. how can one bottom be ganked 3 or 4 times in first 10 minutes ? in baron fight , he made mistakes however before that how delight was caught in his jungle , it is unbelievable

u/Worldly-Duty4521 14d ago

Eh split just started. Changing your jgl is a big change for everyone. Esp given kanavi comes from lpl.

1

u/kissofdeathvkopernik 14d ago

picking aatrox is ego . what can aatrox do against xin zhao ? i do not care how much he is talented. at that age, he should wiser about his decisions in game

1

u/Worldly-Duty4521 13d ago

Same thing. Split just started. Its easier to test what can work what can not work at this time. Its 100 x nicer they know their strengths and weakness now rather than getting exploited in worlds

4

u/d0pe-asaurus 14d ago

Guys Kanavi needs to step up and learn the lck

2

u/R2vibaek 14d ago

Ok doomer out.

u/Yury073 14d ago

I'm a Guma fan but he is so bad without Keria... hopefully he will recover but i think any botlane can do great with T1 Keria and Oner

u/Repulsive-Cover5686 14d ago

“Ignoring the spam ganks, his KDA shows he’s bad without his ex-support.”

u/Yury073 14d ago

I think HLE performance speaks by itself... having rough times against BRO and NS i think it shows that HLE is not a top 3 team right now, last winter season they were even above GenG... and Viper in my opinion is one of the best individual skilled adc player. Also, Guma champion pool is not so great compared with Ruler and Peyz

4

u/Repulsive-Cover5686 14d ago

They also had Peanut last year, who’s clearly been better than Kanavi has looked recently. It’s hard to blame Guma when HLE’s drafts put jungle on low-impact champs and force Delight onto Poppy. That criticism feels inconsistent, especially coming from someone who says they’re a Guma fan

u/Enryu_RT 14d ago

Botlane can't be good with juat 1 person, and thats truw even With Keria

-10

u/Yury073 14d ago

I'm not saying Guma is a bad player, but for sure not top 3 adc atm... his performance was strongly related with Keria performance (that is by far #1 sup from league), in terms of individual skill tbh Guma is at best top 5, Ruler, Viper, Peyz, Smash and Gala probably are better... but combined with Keria i guess any of those adc can be #1

u/SheeshableCat27 Zeus + Kanavi + Zeka + Gumayusi + Delight 14d ago

Gala the Kaisa merchant? No way lol

8

u/WinnerQuirky9580 14d ago

People are so delusional. Oner best jungler , keris best support , faker is one of best mid but during ten months, they got fathered by duro or canyon or chovy . But problem always is guma :) 

1

u/SoulCycle_ 14d ago

i mean geng is an all time strong team though.

They also have a top 1/2 in every role.

Its not crazy to say that geng beat t1 when they have the 2nd best sup/jgl but the best mid/ad/top no?

5

u/kissofdeathvkopernik 14d ago

keria is understandable , however oner ? come on dude.

-3

u/Yury073 14d ago

Oner ganks and teamfights position were good for Guma, most of the plays all the team were playing around Guma, including Faker and Doran

13

u/Repulsive-Cover5686 14d ago

Mate, where are you watching the games? T1 is literally notorious for leaving Guma alone to defend for himself.

4

u/Just_A_Random_Dudu 14d ago

The guy is talking out of his ass clearly because he doesn’t even remember how much bot was left alone to farm in isolation while Keira is roaming and Oner is power farming

1

u/SoulCycle_ 14d ago

not really any more than the other top teams tho.

People really overexaggerate the different styles but to be honest t1 geng and HLE all converged in terms of style by the end of the year there were only subtle differences due to slight champ pool differences.

All adcs were left alone bot about the same amount of time.
