GodV
Kakao
Rookie
PYL
Deft
Yellowstar
Clearlove
Pawn
Marin
Westdoor
Ssumday

My prediction for the next 2 are:

don't give a shit about the list since they didn't give Yellowstar top 5

Yeah he's just fine where he is... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0jGpz3JdtA

PYL does everything he does except better IMO

He is an excellent leader, Imp and GodV say they joined because of PYL And he has great mechanics compared to Yellowstar's somewhat average mechanics.

Yeah sure Yellowstar is a superb player (he is mostly like the 2nd best support at worlds) and thats why hes ranked 8th but I don't think he deserves to be higher then where he is now.

hahahhahahah

that's what the fuck he gets for playing Thresh, garbage champ

but his Janna is amazing

What about WildTurtle? Isn't he the best or was the last season?

His play was really inconsistent in the summer split, he even got benched at one point.

Ah ok, I haven't heard anything from him in awhile. That's probably why then :T

What about Febiven or Rekkles, should they be in the top 20? Yeah, for numbers 1 and 2, I agree that it would be Faker and Imp.

Those are two strong players, but I guess they can only put so many players down, I also think they are missing KOO Tigers top laner Smeb , and support GorillA.

Smeb: Smeb is IMO a very good player and may not have the same carry potential as someone like Huni or Ssumday, but considering he gets far less resources then them he does just as good. And when he gets an edge he can constantly push it and make highlight plays such as this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lct5iH4ILM0

GorillA: The KOO Tigers shotcaller and leader, the former Najin W Shield player also makes huge plays and is a rock through KOO Tigers inconsistencies.

I mean the fact that there are no players from the second seed korean team is ridiculous, at least fnatic has 2 players in the top 20.

I don't even know ZIV

Hes the top laner for AHQ, the #1 seed in LMS

Hes known for his consistency, tank play, decision making and teleport plays.

as soon as doublelift was put on the list it was wrong.

I not even saying it as a joke doublelift should not make that list.

I think the list is mis-leading, because these players seem to be "the players at Worlds who need to perform to their highest potential or their team will lose", not "the best individual players at Worlds". I think many of these players have to either shot-call or carry in a major way to allow their teams a chance to win. If they go down, then their team goes down with them.
