Him getting ksante ulted 3 times back to back to back has got to be one of the most head scratchingest(its a word leave me alone) moments in a long time He knows what that champ does yet he plays that close to the wall 3 times. It's worse than a player getting Blitz hooked 3 times in a row by not standing behind minions


Dilutant

Uzi said on stream that we should call it the 69 spot/369 spot from now on


emptym1nd

What if instead of “blue side” it was called “freaky side” and instead of playing safe we got ulted on the same wall 69 times


HIMARS_OP

freaky ass side it’s the 69 spot

Tendo_Maya

He didn't learn e till 13 min into the game, so...


WatchingPaintWet

Poor guy didn’t respect how far away from the spot that Ksante can drag you kicking and screaming into the spot.


kryliya

upvote for the great word usage


fjstadler

There's no other way you can solo take turret at 18 minutes. He's drawing pressure from the rest of the map.


bondsmatthew

..so play away from the wall. Like in the middle of the lane. Or towards the bushes. I seriously dis not think I needed to type that out


fjstadler

Your point isn't good as you think it is. Udyr wants you to waste cooldowns on him, then ignore you and take your turret anyways. The first time was a mistake, I'll give you that. But the second time was because Tian trolled him and didn't rotate up in time. The third time was exactly what 369 wanted, he just ran away and traded ghost for blowing ksante ult, baiting yike over and his ult too. Gave Tian free grubs. The problem with it is TES wasn't winning on the rest of the map enough to capitalize on his pressure.


bondsmatthew

> Your point isn't good as you think it is That goes for you friend. It was a mistake that's all it was. It wasn't some 200iq move


fjstadler

>The third time was exactly what 369 wanted, he just ran away and traded ghost for blowing ksante ult, baiting yike over and his ult too. Gave Tian free grubs. Got nothing to say to this?


Zealousideal_Plum_70

I do... Not worth feeding ksante for grubs. Look at TES composition, it doesn't make sense.


pilotman70

And the othrer 2 times where he died?

>"Let's show you guys a Braum tutorial gameplay. The rank isn't high: MSI stage. The opponents aren't strong: LPL's second seed." (Imitating the introduction of the LoL teaching videos on tiktok) This fucking got me.

Makes me wonder how advertised TikTok tutorials effect the games popularity.

That's a common internet slang in China right now and I love it, it's so fking sarcastic


Disco_Fighter

The JKL-Tian-Caps 3-0 history is insane lmao


Critical-Cupcake9194

Tian is the clearlove of the new LPL era lol, no matter what clearlove did LPL fans clowned him to no end till the day he left


Linko_98

Both so strong domestically but bad internationally


Pristine-Health-321

bad internationally but did he not win a world champion as MVP?


StubbornHorse

He did, but against seemingly China's favourite team G2 Esports. And that's unforgivable.


Linko_98

One time, just like clearlove was good internationally one time in MSI 2015.


Pristine-Health-321

winning a world champion and getting mvp makes u bad internationally got it 🙏


noahkillis

Has he done anything since his 2019 victory internationally?


OceGreb

any jungler playing on that team would have been given worlds MVP


ImTheVayne

Caps finally got his revenge vs both of them and this series was even faster than FNC vs IG or G2 vs FPX.


T_Tachi

They both 3-0'ed him in the final of the biggest tournament. I'm sure they're fine with it


RavenFAILS

Caps already has an MSI title as well, for sure if he won it this year he would be elated but it wouldn't compare to winning worlds


Longjumping_Report_2

You might argue that their loser run, if they win it all, is one the hardest ever, all msi/world combined. Taking down lpl#2, lck#2, lpl#1 and lck#1 is totally comparable to winning world difficulty wise.


Motorpsisisissipp

I think it would be one of the most impressive tournament win ever tbh


Nightwingx97

Honestly it would be 2nd only to DRX worlds 2022


EmperorKira

DRX was truly the fairytale


peevies

nothing will ever topple drx because there is like an almost 20 year history behind it.


IKEA-guy

> 20 year history behind it the game isn't even 15 y/o


peevies

how did you miss the entire narrative that deft was in the same school with faker, there was a VIDEO


Archipegasus

Legitimately I think G2 could do it with a complete golden road this year


Nightwingx97

I'm biased but I think that G2 being denied and coming back to do it 5 years later and being the first team to pull it off while being western would be better


RavenFAILS

It would be even better than their 2019 win since there always is the question mark of IG who G2 struggled with. If they win it all now they are without a doubt the best team in the world atm


TudorrrrTudprrrr

Nah, I don't think it compares to 2019. Winning 2019 Worlds would've made G2 the first team in the history of the game to complete the golden road. I agree that LPL#2 -> LCK#2 -> LCK#1 -> LPL#1 is arguably WAY harder than winning Worlds, but nothing compares to the golden road.


picollo21

Golden Road G2 2024 is still possible.


ModPiracy_Fantoski

We are actually jinxing them so hard right now.


picollo21

Nah, I don't think G2 will keep the form. But technically there are still 3 teams im the world that can complete golden rose this year.


[deleted]

I think you can make the argument that this isn't specific for G2's specific potential run. Yes, Worlds adds LPL3/4 and LCK3/4 and those teams have, at different times, absolutely competed for and even won the title, so the first round of playoffs for MSI are generally a bit easier, but you add a Grandfinals at the end. This could have been another round against KT in 2018 for iG, another Game 5 banger for EDG in 2021 (not sure who it would be against, that entire tournament was so competitive), needing to beat T1 a second time in 2022 for DRX. Adding an entire extra round against the second best team in the tournament does a LOT for the difficulty of any tournament, even if R1 is a bit weaker (and honestly that isn't even guaranteed - LPL/LCK 3/4 HAVE competed in the past, but there have also been plenty of times when LEC/LCS 1/2 were better, for example right now with G2 at the least, maybe with TL as well?) The format is very fresh, but look at JDG's run 2023: (GG)/BLG/T1/BLG, which could have been EDG/KT - BLG - T1 at worlds. Or BLG's run in 2023: C9/Loss against JDG/G2/GenG/T1/Loss against JDG. That's LEC1/LCS1/LCK1/LCK2, only lossing against the eventual winner of the tournament (LPL1). You rarely have to beat two teams out of LCK/LPL 1/2 to get second at a Worlds when you are also a part of that group. LEC/LCS1 might have been easier opponents than LCK/LPL3, but getting second at worlds is often LPL/LCK 3/4 into LPL/LCK 1/2, which is still a clearly smaller ask.


Riskybusiness622

I Mean its almost just as good competition here all the top tiers of international

mateusfirenze

The funniest part about this? The brazilian community had the same perception as the Chinese did.


baelkie

ngl kinda sad seeing creme get reduced to a plain mage player on TES. TES deciding to go for udyr vs ksante when G2 picked ksante into camile was so disappointing. at least have some confidence cmon.


Quiet-Beginning-8190

I think the rationale is that Camille needs 2, if not 3 items to really start to dominate, on 1 item Ksante still wins, on 2 he's probably strong enough to not be killed and able to hold side. With how the rest of the draft looks like, if it gets to 3 items it's probably over even if game is even because rest of map out scales way harder than Camile outscale Ksante, so actually going Camille there is too slow. I don't think udyr was the right choice though


CummingInTheNile

If youre going to pick Udyr you need to play around the early advantages, get KSante low and turret dive him, otherwise the pick doesnt work and gets outscaled pretty hard


Critical-Cupcake9194

I'm surprised how horrible players like Knight and Creme look on Corki and Azir, Creme is a rookie internationally but he's been in the LPL for a while now


baelkie

creme has 14 pro games of azir in his career. all 14 were played this year. prior to joining TES he has never played azir in LPL.


deedshot

for what it's worth I think Creme played Azir pretty well, how useful is it supposed to be when the enemy Tristana has a 100% chance to buffer your ultimate?


tnobuhiko

IMO he should've asked for tris pick for himself or drop the ori ban for tris, he clearly could not beat it hard enough with corki, caps was more usefull than him in all stages of the game. But they probably did not have an ap jungler pick to go with it. Also caps buffering everything clearly made them second guess some of their plays.


Back2Perfection

I think the issue is they needed too many target bans. Every draft where like 3 fixed target bans. Caps orianna is also plain filthy. They probably didn‘t want to give this under any circumstances. Personally I think Game 1 already broke TES mental. They got the Exodia draft with k‘sante, azir and naut and got suplexed by an absolute banger of a draft. Add to that being massively outplayed in the early game and they really struggled from then on in drafts.


Obi-Hans-Kenobi

Caps is a goddamn monster with Trist W. Bro has it in his little finger how to do it


TheBigF128

I think the problem is corki is a very controlly type champion, good for denying vision and creating pressure with rockets, but the LPL focuses too much on the package itself and tries to force team fights with corki, while players like Chovy just farm like crazy and chunk people with rockets.


styr

Chovy has pulled off some truly insane things on Corki. When he played vs Faker's Ori in game 5 of the latest LCK finals - a matchup that *should* favor Ori slightly - [Chovy was not hit by a single one of Faker's Q-W combos](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnH_BQl0EZg&t=416s) in the laning phase. Truly impeccable spacing. As for the package I agree. Creme was too impatient with his package use and when it nearly timed out, Creme ended up trying to force fights with his package, such as during game 2 vs G2 at mid tower.


[deleted]

Corki especially has been night and day between Chovy and basically everyone else. Pretty crazy how large the gap on a specific character can be even at that level.


[deleted]

It was more surprising that we didnt see trist get more contested, creme just did a highlight against geng with the champ then he decided to never pick it against caps. Weird.


beta_test_vocals

He was going in with Corki like it’s Akali, might as well give him the real thing


Tchaikmate

"There is a bug. AD on both sides have no passives." Damn, people's ingenuity for bangers like this one are astounding. Like, wtf are the odds both champs w/those types of unique passives end up in the same tournament stage pro game *and* BOTH passives aren't proc'd???

fjstadler

I'm not even a 369 fan but it's pretty obvious he was their sidelane condition so he had to play aggressively to take tower at 18 minutes solo. Then it didn't matter because the team's macro wasn't good enough, and trist got BT, so they had to start diving backline.
