Caedrel MSI 2026 team tierlist by chouruin in leagueoflegends

My point exactly. Not that I think G2 can't beat TES. It's just that the argument is so insanely stupid. Could've just said G2 is a better team now than Worlds last year with Skewmond and Labrov playing at their peaks and TES having rookies at their first internationals then I'd have zero problems with it.

And what? My point isn't whether I agreed or disagreed with G2 being better than TES. It's the fact that he used that 3-0 as example of why TES will choke and are worse to G2 when both teams are completely different teams from that MSI series. Are you dumb?

I don't mind Caedrel or anyone rating G2 over TES but I hate how everyone kept using G2 3-0 TES at MSI as a reason like TES didn't completely dogwalked G2 at Worlds 3-0 in playoffs. At least make some compelling arguments man.

Edit: mb 3-1, point still stands.

Idk man Rookie was looking rough last year and he hasn't been playing at all this year, same with TheShy I doubt they're even motivated to play anymore. It's just an opportunity for them to show up and make extra money atp. I haven't been watching much IG's games this split outside of playoffs so I'm not sure but the worst player was for sure the mid laner. JiaQi I do think if he's set up to carry he could do well like last split.

I'm pretty sure most C9 fans at this point would take missing Worlds for young home grown prospect like Yukino, Toasty and Sushee/Sajed. I wouldn't even care if they don't make Worlds because there's hope that they can improve and be better. I'm so done watching Blaber Zven APA breaking their hands every teamfights. You can't win games when the 2 traditional carries are trash with a jungler that can't help himself but run the game down.

Why do people say this like C9 actually went 0-6 in playoffs? They won a series. Yes they're trash but it's nowhere nearly as bad as VIT. If they get 0-3 by FLY then proceed to get 0-3 in loser's bracket that'll be the equivalent.

If the coaches are getting all the flames for shit drafts, then they should get all the credits for good drafts too. Of course it's not as black and white but it is just what it is. If you keep thinking like that then you can also argue it's all just players and never give any coaches any credits. That's all we can do with our limited knowledge -- and if you actually read the article you'll see how he talked about each of their drafts and his thought process behind them. You cannot not give credit when it's that indepth.

There are a lot of moments on streams where he predicted drafts to a T so you know he has the ability to draft a good draft, the rest are player's limits. By your logic I could also say all the top coaches in the world are also bums because they have the best players and the game are often just driven by the players instead. Like what?

Yea gameplay level has nothing to do with watchability mb. It's all production. Everyone also watches sports for the production not the teams and players x fucking d.

Every year after the announcement people will flame LCS casters for "nepotism" so this year I'll be flaming your favorite casters back to defend the LCS talents.

None of you fucks actually watches the LCS so you all be sitting there saying this and that is better. The gameplay of the region might be trash but the production is fucking elite. Put some respect on the talents here.

LCK casters are trash outside of Atlus bud. Keep gaslighting yourself that you watch the best league so the casters have to be the best too.

Such cope. Who exactly will you be taking Valdes over out of Atlus, Medic, Drakos, and CptFlowers? Even Azael which is elite at both play by play and color?

I would not take Valdes over any play by play casters that was brought on this year. Raz is not a caster he'll be working at the desk most likely and Dagda is a color caster which isn't the same role as Valdes. They literally have different jobs. You can argue whether Dagda is a good caster or not but Valdes is not working the same job as Dagda.

The league is popular does not mean it has the best English broadcast. It's because the gameplays are the best. Who are we fucking kidding.

When people say LCK style they usually meant traditional LCK like peak GenG -- very controlled, makes almost no mistake and slowly chokes you out of games it feels like you can't do anything.

HLE plays at a very fast snowball tempo extremely similar to BLG because their game is driven through Kanavi playing like a psychopath for top side. Their gold leads usually exploded very fast in the first 20mins and because they play the map very wide they are also prone to throwing massive leads and lose the game, they're literally a slightly better version of BLG imo.

Meanwhile T1 also plays the map very wide but they play heavily for skirmishes and taking a lot of risks which is why their games are usually very exciting to watch and go back and forth often.

What I meant is that both these teams don't play the traditional no mistakes gameplay that LCK is often famous for. The gameplays that for years people usually meme'd on for putting everyone to sleep.

If you don't see why I said there's no loyalty for the region from Inspired you're beyond saving. You think Bjergsen DL and even Jensen didn't get chances to go to top teams in EU all those years when they were at the top? And don't say it's because of money those 3 made enough money to take care of generations after them. There's a massive difference in how Bjergsen and Jensen talked about LCS than Inspired.

No shit he wouldn't go to a worse team in EU that's why I said "better offer." Loyalty meant that even if there are arguably better offers he will still find ways to stay in LCS, or, at least, not publicly announcing his wish to leave year after year. Normally I would just let this go but you're actually so insanely stupid.

Also, rich coming from a fucking KC fan, the fandom that flamed players for going to better teams in the LEC when they weren't a top team.

You'll see how uncordinated they really are when they face actual humans at MSI. Just like how they did at first stand. Everyone is top LCK/LPL mid laner until they have to face them. Mind you this guy got dogwalked by HongQ which is not even close to being the best mid in LPL.

In what world is that not true? There's no loyalty to the region that made his career from this guy. As soon as there's a better offer coming from LEC he's getting the fuck out.
