* Both ADC's made finals

Kinda unreal how this streak went from Wildturtle carrying it to Doublelift carrying it and now finally back to Wildturtle carrying it as he looks in the best form he has in years!

Also unreal how disrespected he is an ADC being the only one who can challenge DL in longevity.

Players with the most finals appearances:

Wildturtle: 9

Bjergsen: 9 (10 if they can beat TL)

Doublelift: 8 (9 if they can beat TL)

Sneaky: 8

Xmithie: 7

Edit: Another fun fact from the comments. Doublelift has won 2 spring titles and 5 summer titles giving a whole new meaning to the fact that he believes Spring doesn't matter XD

These are also the only two players to have played in every single split of the LCS as well, pretty wild they're still successful after competing for SO long.

Didn't DL take a split off in spring 2017?

He technically played on Team Liquid for a couple games at the end there.

Nah he’s technically right since DL boosted TL. PastryTime likes this kind of obscure knowledge so I wouldn’t challenge him on it.

Prowness wins the award for remembering DLs streaming break was broken up by saving Team Liquid from being relegated!

It wasn't a full split, but yes technically LiftLift did play in Spring '17.

He's not wrong actually. I would suspect that's a talking point for the finals should tsm make it this week. That's a member of the broadcast team your replying to.

My favourite talking point used to be that Doublelift would've been the only player EVER to make every LCS playoffs if he didn't take that Spring off, but finishing 9th this past Spring would've ruined that anyway =(
