Where would you guys rank him among the others ADCs in LEC? He has definitely exceeded my expectations so far, but I'm not sure where to rank him. He is obviously much better than every other ADC on mages due to his experience as a midlaner, but it doesn't seem like he's top tier on traditional ADCs just yet.

I personally wish he was still a midlaner, not sure if anyone else feels this way.

Something I felt veyr strongly about this split was that Perkz could bring more to the table than just ADs. The added flexibility he adds to G2s draft by simply being on the roster is something few teams in the world can compete it.

As an AD carry player, there are better in Europe, but as a botlaner, he's number 1 for me!

I think the real litmus test will be when the meta shifts back to tank heavy comps. With all the tank buffs recently, Riot clearly wants tanks to get back in the meta.

Personally not a fan of this argument. I feel if anything, G2 have proved that they bend the meta to them, and not the other way around.

In this meta? Probably, yeah.

If the meta shifts back to more standard Bot Lanes I can definitely see Perkz/G2 getting into trouble.

I'm not quite sure if you could always play virtually anything Bot and people just needed a little push to open their minds or if this will get patched away eventually.

I think you underestimate how individually strong G2 is. Even assuming the meta forces G2 to become more "standard" I think they've demonstrated they can play that style too.

They arguably have the best players in each role from Europe remember.
