currently prepping my teemo deck for locals !! probably the best budget deck I could get, I got half the cards I needed off of packs too :3 I don't imagine I'll last long on this deck given it hard loses to kaisa but hopefully I can pick up a few wins off Yi and viktor. if only I could get my hands

fingers crossed but it should be a LOT better in the next set or 2 though, lots of things on the cusp of viability just dont have the right cards they need right now, especially buff decks, purple decks, and baited hook

unfort meta is quite brutal right now :c also made way worse by how impossible it is to get meta & anti-meta cards😭😭 ive been cooking up as good a teemo deck as i can get for my first one next week but in testing its unplayable if some1 has the full $300 kaisa deck while i cant buy Retreats anywhere

I think the nobody in question was me specifically but listen if you also watched t1 lose like 20 games to GenG all year and then get bodied by HLE in summer playoffs you'd understand where I'm coming from

domestic play then i can live with that, but im not sure if you want your domestic playoffs to have an entirely different format than internationals

yeah basically every boogeyman "corki/azir" complaint stems from domestic play where teams are less innovative and not international which has consistently been interesting since at least when i started watching in 2021 (barring maybe a couple MSIs). if they can find a good solution for it in

why the lol community still v positive on fearless, except for some of the on-air talent whove been critical of losing favorite moments. lol fans will similarly gravitate to short term bursts of entertainment over deep or long-term storylines unless they get pushed back by another body like Riot

tho im a believer that the lack of love for storylines in our scene boils down to structural and presentation issues rather than a community diff. the reason league players appreciate them is cuz every game is broadcasted and every storyline is presented and delivered well. theres a reason

yeah no for sure, like i said id be down to see it tried in splatoon :3 i think even just format wise it works better like i mentioned above since splatoon is already blind pick with no draft so would be sick to just have someone try to make a big fearless tournament with good teams in it

but i dont think people will look back on worlds this year and find it one particularly worth rewatching, which is really sad because lower-quality games and the unseriousness of fearless is overshadowing the actual generational storyline that is KTs unreal dark horse run

have made innovations like this well before fearless. if you noticed Poppy being flexed between top/jg/supp at worlds this year, it was actually G2 who invented that at pre-fearless MSI 2024 !! the first-timingness of oner doing it is the more notable part of it, which is funny in the short term

rly talking about oners mundo is cuz he straight up admitted that he didnt know what the champion did. but mundo in general is a thing thats been gaining traction, its an innovation by g2 that is not a consequence of fearless, as theyve played it in plenty of game 1s and 2s throughout the year &

to understand the heights of og draft, (re?) watch worlds 2022 G5 GF (posted in other reply). Beryls bard was way more out of left field than oner mundo but instead of being a desperation attempt its a genius subversion of everything we we knew about the meta at the time. the only reason people are

i respectfully v much disagree and if anything feel the exact opposite -- no fearless draft has topped the heights of trad draft, and i find it hard to believe anything ever will. if you recall some of my RM arguments it is the same thing as always, imo higher highs are better than ok averages :p

i think i talked about this with ely one time and lowk im kinda down LOL there's no ban phase in splatoon so half of the stuff that im complaining about kinda vanishes, and counterpicking isnt really a huge thing that happens (weapon mastery is valued higher than counterpicks)

but you are if anything LESS likely to actually see something like say carbon, for example, because any carbon OTP will have to drop it in favor of a more well rounded weapon pool that doesn't require as much investment and can mesh better with the randomness of the rest of the comp

tbf im not fully convinced it does "new" picks very well, worlds 2022 and 2024 had more unique champions played than 2025. you just get more A-C tier champs instead of it being built around key S-tiers. in splatoon terms: instead of seeing pen every game, we would see Hedit -> Zap -> 3Rapid -> c96

i just miss watching teams pick things because they think its that much more of an advantage instead of cuz "ehh its the only thing left fuck it". same thing as game 5 MSI finals, where GenG draft was so cooked that Duro said they had to flip the entire game on picking pyke and winning in 10 minutes

drafts and gameplay is genuinely the worst i remember seeing in my entire time watching league. oner was forced into playing a champ he had never played (and piloted it poorly as a result), but this has also overshadowed the fact that AL draft was 3 losing lanes and losing jg matchup.
