...but they can certainly fall.

Amazing job Samsung Galaxy. You did what everyone thought was impossible:

Dethrone SKT.

All thanks to brother bang.

He pulls a Doublelift, wildturtle, AND 3 cody suns in the last game.

This is the peak of KR ADC performance.

I mean, did you watch Quarters/Semis? Bang was destroyed by Hans Sama and Uzi.

What made you think he'd do any better against Ruler?

I fail to see how "the enemy adc is x player" has anything to do with those tristana ults (besides the first one where ruler baited with barrier).

Also i been watching LCK so i already knew that if skt lost it was going to most likely be because of their bot lane.

Did people still really think this was impossible after SKT came within an inch of losing to Misfits? I thought it was likely going forward from that point if anything. TBH the bigger surprise to me was that they didn't lose out to RNG rather than that they did to SSG.

I actually expected SKT to lose, and I am happy that they did

I really was surprised by them beating RNG as well.

as long as NA and EU have to play on 2 digit pings and KR gets to play on 1 digit ping, KR is always going to be the better ones

even if the NA and EU pro teams manage to get on 1 digit pings, chances are that the master/challenger opponents they practice against in solo queue will still have 2 digit pings and therefore not able to get the experience they really need

DarkRoosterNov 5, 20171 votes

Yeah its all about digits of pings not Asians putting thousand more hours than western regions every year like slaves into this game. NA and EU players sit so much on social media, plenty even got girlfriends, drives to visit families plenty times a year and rests a lot, does some fun, plays other games. Asians sometimes can be more direct, i have even seen 1 saving up money, working 400 hours per month and never ever spending even a cent for like fruits or vegetables or anything, dude never tasted an apple, just textbook endlessly. Its also old news that Asians put tons of more hours in their carriers, it was talked about when they first started winning every game without a blink of smile, and it was explained why its like that.

notice me Sin piNov 5, 20171 votes

that too is important ~~probably the most important~~, but my point is that even if NA and EU does the same thing digits of ping will definitely hold them back behind KR. How they spend their 24 hours per day is within their control, and they can do something about it. But they cant do anything about ping aside from going to korea for bootcamp.

DarkRoosterNov 5, 20171 votes

Its in their control and its all the thing, nobody does anything to become as perfect as Koreans. Most of the western mechanics are sloppy, unsure, weak, even our star Bjergsen use to stream hitting every skill and every minion possible, knowing mechanics and damages absolutely down to the last number of HP and MP how much he will need. That has not been the case in last years where in same streams he can barely hit or do anything, his skills are degraded to the point where he wastes half the time barely or not even hitting anything, Why i mention one of the best western players attitude is because the others are even worse, and these differences of attitude shows in international stage. Best example is to check last years SSG and SKT, even when SKT humiliated SSG with game 1 and game 2, SSG played like nothing ever happened, no matter how down they were, no matter how bad it looked, they still made plays, made strategies and made outplays, while any other western team usually just bend over and lose, and they got to 5 games and it was quite close. SKT this year did not bend over no matter how bad their games looked, they still played to their strategical advantages. No number of digits will fix what is wrong with their core attitude, they are not ready to take the world cups, please, most teams are not ready to take down their specific region. We won't see western team working 14 - 16 hours per day to get better, why would they ? They can already spend half the time letting fans suck and themselves sucking their own dong.

Paid off. Faker actually cried so much and I feel like he had so much pressure on him... :(

SKT looks shaky since quarter final. It would not be really surprising if they lost in the final. Miracle is called miracle for a reason. What I did not expect is that Samsung 3-0ed SKT. That is totally something to see.

GrubnerNov 4, 20171 votes

All they had to do to bring down faker was completely wreck the game. heres to hoping next season will be worth playing, but i suspect it wont.

Yordle XayahNov 5, 20171 votes

Yeah, his teammates making so many mistakes, the team being so shaky and Samsung being much better at many other areas had nothing to do with the outcome.

I'm not part of everyone. The way I see it, it was only a matter of time. There's always going to be someone that comes along who is better than you, and there will be someone better than them, and so on and so forth. It's sad in a way, but it was bound to happen eventually, and I think looking at it any other way is unrealistic. They had a good run of 3 years. Assuming the team stays together, this loss will be the drive for them to train, and potentially take back their title next year, or maybe neither of these teams will be world champions next year. Who knows?
