Yep, treading completely new ground here. Very exciting finals :)

riot how could you let her get THAT MUCH RANGE
I'd agree that that is the reuputation of the LPL, but that's also G2s reputation and more recently than LPL winning worlds, how G2 won MSI.
G2 has yet to beat an LPL team in a series though
I dont think its that simple sadly. Qiyana has good counters in jungle and midlane. Qiyanas strength truly shows when you dont get countered which means you have to flex her in champselect (Caps can look good on her but if Jankos cant play her to the level she needs to be played its a problem). Also FPX really likes Qiyana. And knowing G2 they likely ban it. If the intend to FP it on blue side they have to flex and they are forced to ban Ryze (im pretty sure G2 would like to threaten FP Ryze on blue side over Qiyana). Just my first impressions on how i think drafts will go so i would expect G2 banning Qiyana and freeing up the Akali they kept banning against DWG and SKT. (I dont think FPX is that threatening with Akali?). I have no idea how G2 prepares tho so anything could happen. Draft will be once again very exciting to watch.
FPX ban Akali every game fwiw
Apart from Tian FPX is a weaker team individually than both SKT and Damwon
Sure they might be a team with better coordination and teamplay but the lack of skill makes a difference.
FPX won versus IG because IG is not really a team and the same can be apllied to FNC, both teams are very disjointed.
As long as G2 matches the early game shenanigans they are fine, and they should have a easier time in lane than versus the other teams.
Wunder struggled a lot with picks and laning, Gimgoon is a weak side top laner he very rarely plays carries that will benefit G2.
Damwon???? The team with Nuclear????
Well, FPX plays brawl 24/7. It's not that unpredictable. VS SKT we saw brillant chess game won by macro. BUt let's remember that in LEC G2 played just what FPX did in semis. Brawl 24/7.
That's not how FPX plays but ok.
Yeah, on the other side you had 2 korean teams, 1st and 3rd seed, a weak european team and Splyce. I would say Gamers2 have a very good shot at like a 3-1 against FreePlus PhoeniX but that is just me.
But I thought Korea wasn't good?
Yeah and I don't like your strategy of dragging down Uzi with shitty players because you're personally a fan of them
Karsa is at worst the 3rd best jungler in the LPL, Xiaohu was at worst the 3rd best midlaner in Summer. Change the coaching staff instead.
Who, Karsa or Xiaohu?
For karsa Meteor, Ning, Xx, Xinyi, an academy jungler or a Korean import like Tarzan.
For xiaohu I would take any mid in the league over him lmao
I don't like your strategy of replacing them both with inferior players.

Yeah. Last year's Wunder was constantly called one of if not the best top in the tournament by just about every analyst. He wasn't that good this tournament so far but he's way ahead of gimgoon if he's on form.
The last time Wunder was on form was MSI...
Wait how fast do you average though
Was 15 average at peak. Best event was one handed. Used to be top 700 NA i think
Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if they replace him. It feels like he's starting to fall off. Also if they get a new mid laner getting a new jungler can let them build synergy together and they really need a new mid.
Replace him with who?
his Ezreal was embarrassing against SKT
Not as embarrassing as LWX Kaisa vs J Team
Does Perkz have an insane track record on Ezreal?
thats cool and all, but wheres speedcubing?
I have a dedicated speedcubing channel from 10 years ago. Good luck finding it
Did he tiamat on his first auto before ult after e? Trying to figure out what that little circle around the Akali is. Never heard of Tiamat on Akali.
yep! looks like it. if you pause the video, you can see the tiamat is centered on akali.
I remember Tiamat Akali being a thing when she was first reworked; some players went a kind of AD-bruiser style Akali with Tiamat and Conqueror.
His Kaisa is bad, his Ezreal is worse.
Funny copypasta. Completely wrong though.
His positioning continues to suck and mages bot have proven to be very overrated.
Perkz mispositioned how many times in 4 games against SKT? Twice?
mages bot have proven to be very overrated.
No, its just that everything thats not Xayah/Kai'Sa is a tier below them. Mages (and Yasuo) are not worse than other traditional marksmen.
His Kaisa is significantly worse than Teddy/Jackeylove/Lwx, his Ezreal was embarrassing against SKT. Mispositioned grossly at least 3 times. He also had to blow Xayah ult outside of fights multiple times that series.
Mages are absolutely worse than traditional marksmen in this scaling meta.
??????
Perkz played Xayah, Yasuo, Kai'Sa, Orianna, Zoe and Ezreal.
We saw him playing Syndra to stomp enemy botlanes this year. I dont see why he would have any problems playing different ADCs as soon as they become meta again.
What do you base your statement on? That hes the best Xayah player of the tournament?
His Kaisa is bad, his Ezreal is worse. His positioning continues to suck and mages bot have proven to be very overrated.
thx for all the work you put in luv u <3

3-1 for G2
Caps is mechanically stronger than DoinB and can match the roaming style of FPX. Perkz looked stronger than LWX overall and, correct me if im wrong, is more flexible in draft.
Mikyx/Crisp and Jankos/Tian are the most interesting direct comparisons. If Mikyx performs like he did vs SKT, i can see no noticeable skill difference, and Jankos is better than Tian imo.
Wunder vs Gimgoon is toplane.
I do think that FPX can punish G2 early game, which is why they can snowball one game to win but all in all, G2 should be the stronger team.
Perkz is a Xayah otp
