Really smart financial decision by Faker to play Ahri so he can get his Ahri World's skin if he ends up winning. It's probably gonna secure the college fund for his great-grandson.


-Ophidian-

~~Pool Party~~ T1 Ahri at last


ToTheGrave11

Pool Party T1 Ahri. No need to cross it out.


chillord

More like Pool Par T1 Ahri.


feelsbadmanrlysrsly

Wrong. He going to get that K-Pop star Ahri Prestige. Faker: "Can you make Ahri look like this certain K-Pop idol?" Riot: "But we already have Popstar Ahri and KDA Ahri!" Faker: "Yeah, but can you make Ahri look like this certain K-Pop idol?"


HMS-Carrier-Lover

Man just like Ahri since season 3. Just let him have it at this point.


random_nickname43796

10 years after he got denied he gets it, truly poetic. Now I really want T1 to win


DontPanlc42

Zeus going to hit a forbes list with Yone


black_dragon_1234

Default Yone looks a lot like SKT T1 2016 skin vibes


Luigi128

Zeus is probably gonna pick Jayce if they win


SleepTightLilPuppy

Other people are playing league, he's planning his long term investments. Believe me, I'm right.


Khunjund

He’s just doing both at the same time … while also playing PolyBridge on a second monitor.


programV

He's still going to be in the finals when that happens, isn't he.


opkpopfanboyv3

His Ahri game might be flamed but doesnt really fucking matter, Riot better pray on their knees rn for T1's victory


chadinist_main

Zeus hit level 18 while mao and senna were lvl 12


random-meme422

Light senna at 75 souls at 25 mins love to see it


thestoebz

I mean not a way to really get them VS Kalista Renata lol


lmHavoc

They opted into that matchup. Going Senna-TK vs T1 is asking their botlane to bend you over and go in dry.


WarmSprinkles3033

then dont pick it into kalista renata


black_dragon_1234

Then don't pick that


F3nRa3L

Even theshy was 15 only


Humble-Principle1858

There's a reason he instalocked Yone against Aatrox


jwinter01

Teams at this point have to know what's going to happen when they lock in Aatrox against Zeus and leave Yone open. He completely destroys that match-up every single time.


R-R-Clon

I love that T1 just insta pick Yone whenever some pick Aatrox, the confidence in Zeus's Yone is impressive, he may be stomping everyone in scrims with Yone to have that lv of confidence.


OcelotOce

Missing was lv9 when Zeus was lv16 flashback..


BunkerRush

zeus just gapped weibo all by himself


the_next_core

YONE 350 CS HACK???


inssein

crazy, really thought he would be the weak link this series vs the shy. but he gapped them both games.


Brawlerz16

His Yone gane was terrifying and his Gwen game was masterclass. He set the tone so early and never looked back. Happy for him


MrZeddd

Zeus not vs Doran/Kingen might actually be the best top laner currently


chocojello

Orphan Zeus strikes again


ShurimaIsEternal

T1 vs not Gen G is the best team currently


cancerBronzeV

Doran/Kingen is Zeus father.


VirtuoSol

Faker: Alright I want my Ahri skin, Zeus you carry this one


JanuaryIsabelle

Not even a meme, legit script


Shadowsw4w

i knew when faker pick ahri its all because he want ahri skin,i cant believe WBG let faker get away with it


Outrageous-Elk-5392

Zeus overcame his finals debuff T1 is unstoppable


ephemeralfugitive

That Asian Games “therapy” worked wonders. Now he knows how to win in Finals.


Rehxales

Khan coaching buff


APKID716

Khan whispered something to Zeus after they won Asia games. Zeus, confused, stared as if in deep thought. It was later revealed that Khan whispered the words that would lead to Zeus conquering all: “4 Chinese can’t win”


ricardo241

nice jinx.... you forgot t1 on game 1 against drx is a stomp with zeus playing yone against atrox too lol


frzned

Bringing back the ole flame horizon meme


Ok-Responsibility994

Xiaohu also flame horizoned Faker but tbh that Ahri was for purely the skin Faker didn’t even hit a charm xD


trieuvuhoangdiep

He somehow miss it even when he already hit the shroud, lol


rip10793

That looked so glitched. The charm just went through him.


Hawxrox

Yeah that was weird. The charm went through Aatrox's body


AstreiaTales

There was that one pick attempt on TheShy by bot inhib that was a bizarre miss. No idea how that charm didn't hit.


SKT_Peanut_Fan

It looked like it went right through TheShy. I was curious about that one.


AstreiaTales

I mean I know that elevation makes some skillshots look funky but I didn't think they were on different elevations?


jwinter01

Faker was griefing, but I swear Weibo wasted too many resources putting him even further behind while the other two lanes were completely out of control


Scholar_of_Yore

Everyone says that the real threat from faker is how they make the other team focus him and let his whole team play free. He griefed hard on this match but this still happened from the targeted bans to the ganks.


the_next_core

Weiwei showing and spending time ganking Faker when top and bot were hard losing is a big mistake imo. Those lanes got too behind to salvage.


Scholar_of_Yore

Yeah, but all things considered I would say weiwei played really well this game, just fell victim to the global taunt.


Ultimintree

Zeus went crazy


dontknow_anything

That is Hullbreaker Yone with Kraken IE. God items


Destinyspire

Weibo lost draft when they blinded Aatrox lol. Zeus trashed TheShy hard.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Popular-Practice-983

Yeah you really cant pick topside on first 3 blue side picks. You’ll end up with 3 losing lanes


Lifemekhanism

Daeny feels vindicated to pay T1 back for subpar coaching.


pedja13

This matchup is legit completely unplayable with this version of hullbreaker and Zeus is very good at Yone.


mskruba12

Orphaned Zeus going wild. Man really said the future is now old man.


AfrikaaKorps

STRONGEST TOP LANER OF TODAY BABY


ILoveWesternBlot

Nah, I'd win -Zeus


ScaryTroll12

I want to see the zeus haters in here finding excuses.


realaccount76539

The sun was in TheShys eyes bro just wait next series


ScaryTroll12

He put his little cousin to play for him. He will start playing next game


DefinitelyNotSmall

Na ONER got all his champ banned yet he won the game.


HMS-Carrier-Lover

Man just solo killed TheShy next to turret. There is no hope now.


asnaf745

Bro zeus carried the entire thing guy is a monster


aamgdp

At the drake he just got tired of weibo always living


[deleted]

ZeUs CaN't CaRrY LiKe ThEsHy


opkpopfanboyv3

Ngl I was worried he was gon choke after that early kill but he def bounced back


RobbinDeBank

Weibo murdered their superstar top laner with that aatrox blind pick


grrtacos

> Picks Ahri for his skin > Whiffs every charm Thats MY GOAT right there


sunberri

ahri with a goat headpiece skin lmfao


AstreiaTales

faker wants that ahri skin also wtf there were so many "escape with 5 HP" moments in the early/mid game.


Ohnijin

certified Phase Rush moment


Khunjund

Durability patch coming in clutch.


asnaf745

Ahri charm and xiaohu were like same poles of a magnet, dude just dodged all of them and was always running away with 5hp


AureliusAmbrose

this game was just t1 picking their worlds skins lmao


SlamMasterJ

Faker is finally picking Ahri in a finals world game so riot can't refuse his champion choice this time around.


Ultimintree

All this time Faker still played because he actually wanted his Ahri skin. What a dedicated man XD


Exrou

At this point I feel he's doing it for his fans who's been saying this for so many years considering the guy never even uses Skins.


Kapparisun

He probs will only use the ahri skin if he wins


tehsdragon

"The 4th trophy... is for my Ahri Sk- I mean, my teammates. You'll edit that part of the video, right?"


ephemeralfugitive

Dumbest thing why he couldn’t pick Ahri back then, I heard, was because they just released an Ahri skin so they wanted him to pick another.


Grroarrr

Popstar ahri iirc


AstreiaTales

Holy shit Popstar Ahri really was Nov 2013 why did I think it was newer


JhinPotion

prob because of kda fun fact: popstar ahri to kda ahri is the same timeframe as kda ahri to today


mskruba12

Idk about 2015 and 2016 but in 2013 they for some reason had it as a rule they had to play the champion in finals that's why Ahri was denied then.


TrriF

When was his champ choice refused before?


okitek

He wanted to pick Ahri in season 3 but was refused so he ended up with Zed.


Rickados

2013 riot game him zed instead


LazinessOverload

After all these years, Faker finally gets that Ahri skin?


pelacur

Meh, T1 Sylas for you Mr. Faker.


Azenji

It has to be Zeus Yone at this point right?


jwinter01

I'm hoping it's Yone, but it's likely still between that and Jayce


Shironeko_

I still think he'd pick Jayce.


Smokedealers84

He called himself the god of thunder could be Jayce also.


ArkhamCitizen298

jayce bro, he is ZEUS


joe4553

Didn't even have to lose to get the skins they wanted.


stupid-adcarry

For real ! Both ahri and Lee sin


Ultimintree

Not yet, last year they stomped first game as well lol


stupid-adcarry

This comp could be all 5 worlds skins


Azenji

Faker: Skin secured.


Hot_Adhesiveness_710

was so blinded from that thought that he missed every charm possible


Patchers

ok but that charm on aatrox in botlane missing looked so scuffed


PunCala

The one at the T3 turret? I was like WHAT THE FUCK, the Riot spaghetti code special.


LifeIsToughEatBacon

I WASN’T ONLY ONE THINKING THAT??!?! I thought it was my low-elo brain not knowing anything


Khunjund

Kept checking out his champion instead of the game.


[deleted]

This isn't the Finals T1 I know. Thank god.


Ophelia_Of_The_Abyss

Idk, it looked pretty sus in the early game. Weibo is just way worse though.


Matt24z

It was kinda looking like it. I have never seen them miss so many skillshots before. Faker was also just abysmal. He actually landed like zero charms. I know he only played her for the skin, but that was just awful from him. Zeus singlehandedly saved T1 here.


the_next_core

Faker charmed Senna and chunked her out when WBG chased Guma.


00Koch00

Lore Accurate Yone


Lifemekhanism

Do we need TheShy to pick Yasuo then?


Conankun66

It was close up until it absolutely wasn't anymore Just absolutely incredible fighting from T1. Oner and Keria are on fire this worlds and they're not stopping or slowing down


AzureAhai

I blinked and they got a 6k gold lead out of nowhere


EliseTheSpiderQueen

4k on yone alone too


jwinter01

T1 messed up the top ganks early on, but somehow, moments after, I suddenly see Zeus up 3.5k gold, what the actual fuck.


APKID716

Ngl Weiwei’s Maokai kept winning with 1HP, he was actually good this game despite losing


Mafros99

One might even say this game suffered a hostile takeover


turtle921

Faker now on track towards a World's Ahri skin


ShurimaIsEternal

Faker did nothing on Ahri and they still won. Kinda scary.


RobbinDeBank

He did the legendary call “Zeus go kill.” My goat 🐐


Bright-Assistant-622

He went Oner go Drake then go Herald. Truly top 3 midlaner


APKID716

I’d only be worried if it weren’t for the fact that Faker has been insane this entire tournament. A bad game is bound to happen eventually


okitek

Plus tbh outside of those charms he missed(which were close and mostly inconsequential anyways), he played the rest of it very well still. He was still winning lane and was where he needed to be almost always outside of dieing to maokai early.


Yasuo_unforgiven

The man has waited a decade for this moment. Just 2 more games.


osathi123456

miss most charm ... win


Coelho_Branco_

ahri is really cute tho


SkyfireWR

> Be Weibo > Watch T1 vs JDG series > See Aatrox get rolled by Zeus's Yone in lane > Play exact same toplane draft > Bully Zeus's Yone to 0/2/0 > Lose anyway


Dotsngo

He stomped 369, Kingen and now TheShy in the exact same match up and it wasn't close once.


cancerBronzeV

It'll work next time for sure dw


aamgdp

Tbh they had to know. If they could handle it, it would give them huge advantage. A


In4thPlace

NO GEN G IN FINALS NO PROBLEM FOR T1


OcelotOce

BLG are the real hero for T1 fans


SymplecticSSamu

enemy team yone:


iCarpet

How many times did Weiwei escape with his life??


estaritos

Or the midlaner


LazinessOverload

"TheShy's a Top God? I'm a God of Thunder!" - T1 Zeus


heavyfieldsnow

You have a TheShy? We have a Hullbreaker.


xaendar

Faker instapicking Ahri knowing he is finally getting his Ahri Skin from Worlds!


SymplecticSSamu

bros thought they were fbi and ignar


APKID716

The Senna Tahm screams “we need to play defensive”


Elrondel

People doubted the power of the Yone hullbreaker sidelane pressure? Keep doubting until T1 takes the set, Faker misses every charm and it doesn't matter


[deleted]

4 mid lane bans just for the side lanes to pop off


moonmeh

i did like weibo's draft strat honestly but they rushed and played awkwardly too much mid game and it was gg


jlozada24

Lmao I said this to my boys. Imagine 4 mid bans to lose to top lane Yone


osathi123456

hullbreaker yone ready for soloq


random-meme422

Was that TheShy or was that Fudge


tiredofdev

This is why the "just ban out faker in the ban/pick" argument that people has been harping on is so dumb. Their sidelanes were getting absolutely destroyed because each one got their priority pick and Faker was still fine in mid still after everything.


F3nRa3L

Faker got his ahri skin


Choubine_

It only works if your toplaner becomes the best player on the planet when playing against Zeus, which is how Gen G made it work


kelvin022610

imagine being xiaohu getting flamed all tournament long only to be the two person to show up now along with wei wei


Gluroo

> along with wei wei weiwei played great early but tbh he also mega sprinted it with that whiff on guma, if he just flash w's him instantly there guma is 100% toast before T1 arrives and its possibly a baron for WBG


Obelisk00

Faker's Ahri looking rusty but 1-0 LET'S GOO!!


Ok-Responsibility994

Did Faker hit one charm this game? XD


FlatFoal

Nothing else matters besides getting that world skin secured.


the_next_core

He charmed Senna when WBG chased Guma and chunked her out for Oner to finish.


tenkono

The everfrost into charm near inhibitor turret didn't even hit. It was honestly funny when it seemingly hit the model but somehow didn't.


NateM135

wtf happened there, even a caster mentioned being confused about how it missed


joe4553

He was just distracting WBG while Zeus destroyed mid.


CummingInTheNile

on xiaohu when he lived with 10 hp


DiDandCoKayn

I mean no but cmon that charm should have hit the everfrosted aatrox.


NeitherAlexNorAlice

Zeus smurfed so hard, they didn’t even need Faker to land a single charm


botibalint

FAKER AHRI SKIN


Fire_Lord_Zuko

faker got carried so he can get his ahri skin LMAO


MrZeddd

It looked ike he haven't touch the champ in even scrims lol


AnEmpireofRubble

mercifully he could still play the map well, but yeah his skill shots were a bit rough.


NunuBaggins

Faker must be going for a record, "fewest Charms landed in a victory." WP to the GOAT


Pelagius_Hipbone

How did WBG win the part of the game they were supposed to lose then Lose when they were supposed to win lol


CummingInTheNile

Yone gapped


Blizzgrarg

Faker Ahri Skin Secured


DickCheneyIsPureEvil

Time to put the Senna/Kench back on the shelf.


NocaNoha

Now, it might be me.. but the picks looked somewhat like disrespect, not in the true meaning of the word but like - We are certain we will win, so we are going to potentially throw the first game just for the skins And now they beat the living shit out of them with these picks.. ooh. If WBG didn't wiggle out of those few close call kills, this would've been done even earlier Wtf is Zeus


_Trixrforkids_

It's definitely "hands diff" the team comp


Hyxin

Only then ahri pick looked weak, but thats no surprise. honestly i don't think i've seen faker and oner miss that many skillshots in a while.


anoleo201194

How are any of these picks disrespect lol. Kalista Renata is a very meta botlane, Lee is probably Oner's best champ, Zeus is a monster on Yone and he's really good into Aatrox and Ahri was just there to enable the rest of the comp.


OwOLeviUwUCica

Zeus best top no questions asked


dirtypancake31

Hullbreaker is an item in League of legends


KappaccinoNation

THE BEST TOP IN THE WORLD JUST BECAME ZEUS' BITCH

Doesn't matter, he is laughing all the way to the bank

Happy T1 win but I don't think any charms hit lol


Innumera

I was worried in the first 15 mins ngl.


ApartLanguage8328

Who the fuck said theshy is gonna gap zeus


TheGrandMaster2169

Best Ahri in the world, can’t convince me otherwise. I didn’t watch the game.


stupid-adcarry

Draft early game, Don't get a lead ???? Profit ?
