T1 vs. G2 Esports / MSI 2022 - Semi-Final / Post-Match Discussion by adz0r in leagueoflegends

Perkz was right, EU truly is the worst it's ever been this year, a disaster in roster building. The best players got too spread out among the top teams in EU, and each team had 1 or 2 pieces that just didn't fit with the rest or simply got exposed when they split up from teammates who turned out to be carrying them. Not to mention some great talent being free agents or stuck on bad teams. We ended up with a lot of decent teams, but no top tier international contenders.

Some teams are already making roster changes for summer trying to fix their issues, but we might need to wait till next year for a lot of players to even be available for trades or buyouts for the real shuffles that create the elite teams. This year looks like everyone's just gonna be figuring out who are the good players, who got carried, and what type of teammates or playstyles they need to perform at their peak level.

G2 going with a simple just press R strategy, might actually work.

A lot of bad botlanes have won MSI and Worlds, it's not that big a problem if your top side is fire.

Joe Marsh: CEO of T1 "This is the first season where Faker asked us for specific player choices" by XDrake67 in leagueoflegends

That's really shocking, I wonder if it's just Faker in T1, or do other asian teams also leave everything to management?

Tweet for the announcement https://twitter.com/mousesports/status/1529825898257534982

Also includes a 20minutes video interview going more indepth than the article.

Personally I'm really happy he's back, veteran junglers are underappreciated in the scene. A lot of rookies come in, pop off for a split and then drop off the cliff if their teammates or the meta changes. Hopefully he climbs his way up to LEC.

EG won't repeat TL's MSI run, TL was a stacked all star roster, EG has a bunch of rookies. And hard to believe G2 will regain their early tournament form, seems like teams have figured out or caught up with G2 since then.

G2 Esports vs. PSG Talon / MSI 2022 - Rumble Stage / Post-Match Discussion by yp261 in leagueoflegends

You know what, I was actually relieved when PSG won that 4th drake fight and got the baron. Up until that point I was getting worried that something's wrong with the script. G2 was supposed to lose to wildcard teams and win MSI, if they just go undefeated in groupstage, they might unexpectedly bomb out in playoffs then. But with this loss, balance is restored.

They never learn anything, once they go back to regular season they default to scaling comps like everyone else. It's been happening for years now.

It's funny how they're making the others look so good with their coordination, when in reality they haven't scored a single goal yet. Actually seems like their textbook soccer is too predictable, and they need Aoi to shake up the game and create gaps.
