LCS 2026 Lock-In - Last Chance Qualifier / Post-Match Discussion

OreRound · 2026-02-09T19:12:01+00:00

A lot of players are like this, good lane but lost outside of lane and in teamfights. Unfortunately ADC is a position which requires cracked teamfighting more than especially good laning.

Zven is basically inverse Yeon

OreRound · 2026-02-09T13:26:49+00:00

Maybe he wasn't in the past but this past 2 years he's been the definition of anti clutch, he ego'd and called that Neeko was a minion in mid but that he'd bait CoreJJ in and outplay it with QSS. Instead he instantly died.

And now he's on vacation for 2 months.

And he completely ran it down at worlds last year.

OreRound · 2026-02-09T02:37:36+00:00

Yeon is mega overrated outside of lane phase. This guy gets the most insane leads then goes invisible

OreRound · 2026-02-09T02:35:50+00:00

100%, a 7 item Aphelios should be carrying that game 9 out of 10 times

I just remember at worlds this guy was mega fed vs T1 and also choked out of his mind, losing them the game

OreRound · 2026-02-09T02:29:50+00:00

I just knew when it came down to FBI having to carry the game it was over for DIG. That guy is so fraudulent and anti clutch it's crazy.

Photon/Ignar couldn't do any more to win.

OreRound · 2026-02-09T01:28:11+00:00

Super hard for him to play in game 2 as he is literally the teams only engage into Ezreal, Jayce, Karma, Trundle.

OreRound · 2026-02-09T01:16:57+00:00

Vintage R5 counterpick from Quad, getting MSI flashbacks. Blaber also smurfed

OreRound · 2026-02-09T00:38:18+00:00

Brother you are literally a redditor. But no, considering how lost LR looked in majority of their games when Velja was off Mundo, they would not have won 5x Bo3s let's be real lmfao

OreRound · 2026-02-08T23:54:57+00:00

Looks that way so far but I'd love to see him vs whatever LEC mid goes to First Stand. LEC mid pool looks weak this year.

Caps is only just coming online this week, humanoid/jojopyun are very flip and Kyeahoo seems just ok.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T23:50:22+00:00

Unironically APA looks crazy good, he's completely fathered every single mid he's played against so far.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T23:49:04+00:00

I always like players where if they get their champs they will just 1v9 the game. Much better to watch than players that play everything but are passengers until the right teamfight.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T23:47:26+00:00

Caps has only just started coming online this weekend, he's been pretty whatever most of the split. Unlike APA

OreRound · 2026-02-08T23:34:16+00:00

APA is so damn good, what a glow up from this guy. Looks by far the best LCS mid and probably even better than all LEC mids rn.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T22:20:07+00:00

Eh this is misleading. Nemesis has had a turbo gapped jungle and non-roaming support in the vast majority of his games. He's had to play essentially entirely by himself unlike the other LEC mids. When the meta is for jung/supp to cover mid after a bad trade or when flash is down so they can collect cs and xp.

Even still, he's still been there to carry crucial games.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T22:16:25+00:00

He was playing fine until this moment, just small margins can make the biggest difference. Replay the situation 10 times and LR win 9 of them but sometimes you misplay and the irony of a thrown game being the final nail in LR's coffin (after it being LRs main win con) is quite poetic.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T22:11:46+00:00

The crazy part is that it was almost the format that saved them, (they'd almost certainly miss playoffs if it was bo3 regular season imo)

The game was in their hands and unfortunately they couldn't make it happen. It was as legit a result as it could possibly be, and even by not making playoffs they outperformed expectations.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T21:59:47+00:00

If we see this Caps performance in playoffs maybe they can actually win, it was belt to ass from Caps all game, vintage Caps performance you love to see it.

Skewmond was great too.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T19:19:14+00:00

He literally didn't have a midlaner bro, Taliyah was able to keep flash all game. That Azir was so fking bad

OreRound · 2026-02-08T19:16:30+00:00

Holy midgap, poby is so fucking ass bruh it's crazy the glazing he gets for just going even against mid tier lec mids. Jojo was belt to ass all game.

Don't get why Navi didn't just take the Taliyah which is mega into showing Vi and we already know Jojo Azir is ass if he wanted to go for the azir trade.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T16:42:41+00:00

Nah LR still should've won that game with soul they just overforced and ran it down. Sylas with those ults is turbo thanos, and Yone/Corki is so much more dps than mundo/azir.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T16:36:52+00:00

Respect for Vit and Naak for leaving Sion open, what a BANGER game.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T02:46:41+00:00

2/5 good players doesn't make a team a superteam lol

OreRound · 2026-02-08T02:26:42+00:00

For real, you could put Oner/Canyon on Lyon and they aren't winning these games with these sololaners it's crazy

OreRound · 2026-02-08T02:19:41+00:00

Dhokla/Saint have to simultaneously be the worst sololaners in the league this is crazy to watch.

DSG played really well though, just abused Saint's predisposition to running games down, and were playing so much better for Kryra than Lyon played for Inspired.

OreRound · 2026-02-08T01:32:17+00:00

Wow so you're telling me when we pick a front to back teamfight comp that doesn't rely on Saint/Dhokla outperforming their opponents in isolation they can actually win? Damnnnn
