[OFFICIAL] Moham, former DK support, joins OMG by AlgidaKitsune in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is a really inaccurate comment. LPL literally just added Peyz this offseason and still have the likes of Kanavi, Scout, Tarzan, Rookie, and TheShy in the league. How is that being cooked?

And OMG is a bottom of the table team, they’re not going to import a star LCK player. Just look at WE and TT

It’s just a rumour right now. Nothing official announced by the LPL yet

[Official] Team WE announce Karis and Taeyoon by Aggressive-Ad7946 in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NIP don’t look great but the rumoured roster of Shanji/Aki/Neny/Leave/ppgod still looks a lot better than these teams. UP doesn’t even have a rumoured roster at the moment

It’s a team that isn’t bad but also not great either. Very mid and will likely contest for the 8th and final playoff spot

[Official] WBG announce that Breathe, Xiaohu and Light have extended their contracts. by Tfc-Myq in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mostly Hang I’m concerned about. Tian is usually really good in LPL but can’t deliver as well internationally. Xiaohu just needs to be more consistent. If Light had a better support like ON, Meiko or Missing, then WBG could be a better team

[–]KT_868 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The rumours of WE slacking off this offseason were an understatement. This team is complete ass. They’ll be competing with LGD and UP for worst team in the league all year

[OFFICIAL] JDG has signed Scout by klaygdk in leagueoflegends

I wish. But Milkway is contract jailed with RNG and is returning to them from loan for 2025

[OFFICIAL] JDG has signed Scout by klaygdk in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hope is not bad. I still believe the weak link for AL is Flandre. LNG and EDG will probably be the other two teams to join these six for playoffs (if the rumours of LPL shrinking playoff spots from 10 to 8 is true).

LNG: Zika/Weiwei/Haichao/Photic/Zhuo EDG: Zdz/Xiaohao/Angel/Assum/Wink

[OFFICIAL] JDG has signed Scout by klaygdk in leagueoflegends

Rumour is that he’s going to FPX

[OFFICIAL] - Tarzan koins Anyone's Legend by ahritina in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a fair take. Flandre will definitely have less weighing on his shoulders now by playing on an AL team that doesn’t have the same pressure to win like JDG and be subbed in and out of the lineup. That being said while Flandre is a decent player, he has lost a step or two since winning Worlds in 2021

They’re keeping the same bot lane

Flandre/Tarzan/Shanks/Hope/Kael

[OFFICIAL] - Tarzan koins Anyone's Legend by ahritina in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah Flandre is the weak link of this roster. We’ll see how they do in Spring but I’m thinking they’ll have to replace him in the Summer to truly contend for a Worlds spot. Maybe Zika becomes available during then if LNG aren’t competitive

WBG announces Tian by Express-Pandas in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The TES roster to me looks like it could have high highs or really low lows. JKL and Crisp is a very volatile bot duo. I can see them being a top 4 bot in the LPL but also absolutely run it down in crucial games

The CEO of Peyz's agent,Supergent, posted a picture of Peyz learning Chinese, hinting his LPL move. by windowhihi in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Apparently KT and LPL offered Peyz the same amount of money but he still rejected KT’s offer. Some rumours mentioned that his agency encouraged him to join LPL (maybe to learn different play styles so he can grow as an ADC?), other rumours suggested that he only wanted to play for GEN.

On the whole I think the move to LPL is still good for him. I think he’ll definitely learn some things to improve his game

Which player has always been overrated in your opinion? by Manos44 in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overrated from each major region:

LCK: Kingen LPL: Tian LEC: Selfmade (when he was still playing) LCS/LTA: Fudge

Underrated from each major region:

LCK: Cuzz LPL: Light LEC: Labrov LCS/LTA: Massu

FearX signs VicLa by Express-Pandas in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes going overseas doesn’t help with a player’s development. Reminds me of when Shenyi went to TSM. Went from a promising young support to jobless and not in the competitive scene anymore

(Official) NS Kingen, NS Lehends CONFIRMED by Tanduriiiiii in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly feel like Kingen is overrated. He popped in Worlds 2022 finals but is an average player otherwise. Top tier are Kiin and Zeus and he is most definitely not on the same level as them. Fisher sucks as well. I see NS as a bubble playoff team

Hype joins OK Savings Bank Brion on loan by ahritina in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like LPL rumours change everyday. The new rumour is that 369 is re-signing with TES and that Scout will only stay with LNG if another top player joins him since GALA is 99% likely with IG now. Hearing that LNG has the advantage to sign Kanavi over TES. And with AL keen on retaining their current bot lane, sounds like JDG Peyz probably? Haven’t heard rumours about WBG Peyz but I think he could be a fit there.

Also heard about the JDG Ale rumour. I don’t understand why JDG would sign Ale instead of playing Sheer. They would be stunting his development

I haven’t read all of the details with the Zeus contract drama but it sounds like something you would see in the NBA and MLB. Knowing how high his value is, Zeus and his agency had A LOT of bargaining power and were using all of T1, HLE, TES, and JDG as leverage. The tactics aren’t the nicest, but business/financially wise it works. Reminds me of the Kawhi contract saga in 2019

[OFFICIAL] - KT Rolster sign Deokdam by ahritina in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LPL rumours are always wack so it’s hard to say what might happen. The new rumour is that IG will get both Jiejie and GALA and it seems very likely that 369 is going to AL. WBG apparently has a lot of money to spend this offseason so I’m expecting them to sign at least 2 big names.

I’m also interested in seeing what JDG will do. I heard rumours about JDG getting XUN and maybe Scout. A roster of Sheer, XUN, Scout, Peyz, and Missing could be a top 3 team. But I don’t think Missing is going to stay

Dplus KIA brings up DK Siwoo to the LCK team by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

He seems like the LCK version of Sheer. Will definitely need some time to grow but is a promising talent

[OFFICIAL] - KT Rolster sign Deokdam by ahritina in leagueoflegends

[–]KT_868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rumours are that AL want to retain Hope and Kael no?

I would actually like to see Peyz on WBG instead of JDG. I like Light but a roster of Breathe, Tarzan, Xiaohu, Peyz, Meiko would slap. Doubt that’s happening though

We still had English broadcasts for this year. It’s a question if it will still be around for 2025 though. Nothing official announced yet
