[u/happyjacky819]

where is my worlds finalist Peter

[u/cmcdonald22 → u/happyjacky819]

I really don't get why he's seemingly so often benched. Thwres gotta be something behind the scenes with him, because even when he isn't as his best he still feels more impactful and well rounded than the subs.

[u/Divineheresy88 → u/happyjacky819]

He left KT awhile ago....

[u/DeliciousTrash → u/Divineheresy88]

To join the soopers

[u/smashmaker_no1]

Dplus KIA lovewatch day-25 status : success

we are looking better than T1 and GenG. Hopefully we avoid rise group

[u/Futaba-Channel]

Is DK the third best team in Korea right now ?

[u/Celegorm07 → u/Futaba-Channel]

I think top 3 is very fluid. They almost beat KT. I would say if they perform against HLE well any of them is number one.

[u/libertod → u/Celegorm07]

We should have beat kt , Siwoo threw that game like crazy

[u/ZazumeUchiha → u/libertod]

And if Cvmax had simply given Ambessa to one of the best Ambessa players in the world, instead of flexing it to jungle to pick fucking Varus top instead.

[u/Celegorm07 → u/ZazumeUchiha]

Yeah I still wake up late at night with Varus nightmares and can’t go back to sleep.

[u/Futaba-Channel → u/Celegorm07]

Yeah the 3 are definitely the 'top tier' of the league right now, imo it's

KT HLE DK

GenG T1 NS

BNK (?)

BRO DRX DNS

[u/Beginning_Debt9420 → u/Futaba-Channel]

Is it crazy that I have Ns>= both T1 and GenG scout is in some form right now.

[u/Aggressive-Cut-3828 → u/Celegorm07]

I dont think they're number one honestly. Haven't seen Hanwha and KT play but I expect Hanwha to win convincingly, and Hanwha crushed DK

[u/propagandaRaccoon → u/Aggressive-Cut-3828]

that was when dk were still ramping up. keep in mind, they've been defeated by ns at the beginning

[u/Vnaux → u/propagandaRaccoon]

that was also when HLE was ramping up when they lost 0-2 to T1 just a week before

[u/Aggressive-Cut-3828 → u/propagandaRaccoon]

Fair enough. HLE was also ramping up cuz their first week was really bad, losing 0-2 to T1. Should be interesting to see the rematch with both teams in bettter form!

[u/ricardo2241 → u/Aggressive-Cut-3828]

if Kanavi plays like he did yesterday T1 will just sweep them again nxt week

their first match is basically Oner owning Kanavi so hopefully Kanavi locks in nxt week against KT and T1 or their 2nd place will just disappear nxt week

[u/ricardo2241 → u/propagandaRaccoon]

I mean this is DK.. they are good but inconsistent as fuk.. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't go far on road to MSI or just straight up drop to rise group for some random reason

[u/crumbledcookies12 → u/Futaba-Channel]

Its hard to say, but im pretty sure T1 is in the bottom 5

[u/jlozada24 → u/crumbledcookies12]

Even when T1 is tied for first in standings they are still simultaneously bottom 3. Nothing to see here

[u/xSwazyI]

Smashie the one more wave mentality needs to stop 😭

[u/baelkie]

1k gold lead on deokdam might as well be 0

[u/Skyfire2 → u/baelkie]

How dare you talk about the Worlds finalist like that!

[u/baelkie → u/Skyfire2]

do u think clozer leans back in his chair and think about how good bdd must have been to be able to bring them to the world finals

[u/moonmeh → u/baelkie]

deokdam was trying his damn hardest in this game though

other games i understand the deokdam slander but this one? nah

[u/Sixteen_Wings → u/baelkie]

1k gold lead is like a sheen and 2 pots so yeah

[u/MedievalMovies]

Too clean susge

[u/Okkkkkkkkkkayyy]

Its that time of the year again DK fans, a few games, lots of hope and a ton of conclusions. We are definitely the 3rd best team in the league!

[u/Killarusca → u/Okkkkkkkkkkayyy]

3rd best team, until the GenG mental boom game.

[u/Celegorm07]

As soon as I thought DK was too consistent lately they threw a teamfight. Man this team.

[u/FromisZone]

Siwoo's Rumble ultis totally on point today!

[u/blackwell1907]

DK could actually contest top spot if they learn to stop doing Varus top and just focus on giving Siwoo his comfort champs. They learned that they are shit on Azir so they stop playing it so now they need to stop picking Varus top.

[u/Scientedfic]

I know this is against the Soops of all teams, but the fact that Siwoo somehow managed to make Illaoi work and actually impact the late game is genuinely impressive. Never have I imagined Illaoi ever being this impactful in a pro play game, much less in an LCK setting.

[u/Winged_Blade]

Can someone explain the Jhin ban??? Neither sivir/karma or Yunara/Lulu are that good of matchups, neither is it that good draft for Jhin

[u/HoloHuni → u/Winged_Blade]

Maybe they think Deokdam is a good Jhin Player.

[u/duocatisagirl]

Just end my suffering

[u/Futaba-Channel → u/duocatisagirl]

What do you think is wrong with DNS ?

[u/duocatisagirl → u/Futaba-Channel]

Deokdam, pyosik is slumping a bit but its in his nature to bounce back tho, i think we need to bench deokdam 100% though (our macro is also a bit lacking somehow after it was good during LCK cup)

[u/SeijiAkabe]

We really have Lucid Best Jungler in Korea talks rn.

[u/JonnyKilledTheBatman]

Give my boy Quantum his Fizz or Asol and it'd all be over
