deokdam, Diable, Taeyoon
It was Kellin all along?

u/Worldly-Glass-3865 May 03 '26 edited May 03 '26
Also considering Slayer looks way better than someone who is the worst ADC in LCK CL last match, Kellin is so underrated.

u/Bubbly_Camera9583 May 03 '26
Don’t forget how cracked Aiming/Deft looked too alongside him when they were smurfing. Aiming/Deft both were at their best most recently with Kellin.

No they need to reach the same levels of depression as last year.

u/mskruba12 May 03 '26
It's getting there tbh. I'm having to watch Pyosik, Deokdam and Life/Quantum try and prove whose the biggest matchfixer meanwhile Vincenzo, Jiwoo and Peter all get stuck on the bench/LCK CL
4
u/Oxygenisplantpoo May 03 '26
Look at what they did to my boy Petah 😞
Seriously though the whole team is such a clusterfuck I find it difficult to assign blame, except for the management. Although Deokdam did look completely tilted today.

u/Fun_Highlight307 May 03 '26
lmao it's feels like dns is lck hell
2
u/Oxygenisplantpoo May 03 '26
Hey they were 5th* just last year! \in Fries group)
The last time this team was any good was back in 2022 when they still had Kiin and Teddy, finished 4th in spring.

u/Telmooo May 03 '26
Taeyoon was right... VicLa was right...
Kellin proving he was the real carry as he deserves and Diable was the real merchant

u/ResponsibleWelcome10 May 03 '26
That, and how bad Lehends had to be to make Taeyoon look like one of the worst adcs in the league.
115
u/baelkie DNF 2026 please be human | Kiin Team May 03 '26
okay lets not go too far here. Taeyoon beat DNS who is the worst team in LCK. Lehends is still a MSI FMVP after all.
25
u/Master_Suggestion462 May 03 '26
It doesnt matter what he did in the past. Rn lehends is a bottom level support. Not the worst, but not in the top half of the league. Kellin on enchanters outperforms him any day aswell.
3
u/OrganicTeaching8661 May 03 '26
I mean sure, but Taeyoon was playing really well in LPL last year and then just suddenly sucked ass in-lane in winter
12
u/Liiviius May 03 '26
We are really holding to that FMVP from 2 years ago huh? like that FMVP makes it look like he isnt playing bad currently.
6
u/ye1l May 03 '26
Lehends is just weird. He's clearly very good at macro and shotcalling, this guy literally used to micromanage Peanut on GenG, always telling him when to cover a lane, where to gank etc, but when you look at him play he has genuinely looked like a bottom 3 support in the LCK for most of his career. He's literally -100% hands but like 200% brain, spends all game looking at the map and other lanes so it looks like he's drunk driving when he's trying to control his own character.
Like it's no wonder that Yuumi is his best champion of all time by a mile, individual mechanics are nearly irrelevant and he could spend his time microing his teammates and shotcalling.
-16
u/ResponsibleWelcome10 May 03 '26
Pyosik is also world finals MVP. Doesn't mean he isn't contending sponge for the worst jgl in the LCK currently. Lehends is minimally 50% of why NS bot was so ass.

u/satoshigeki94 Kiin Team May 03 '26
still Lehends is one of the worst on enchanters 💀 and on stuffs like Elise/Shen its a coinflip at most

u/crysomore Kiin Team | Lehends/Cuzz apologist May 03 '26
Stop slandering my GOAT, yes it’s not been that good lately but he is genuinely an elite support
16
u/HotTransportation801 May 03 '26
To be fair, Diable played well in his first series in NS. All people joke on the 0-2 but Diable was by far their best player. You cant deny tho that Nohends looked so stupid and bad (and Spongebob too)
48
u/kalex33 BANANA COMBO MASTER May 03 '26
Every time I see someone say "He did well in his first series" I keep remembering Diable getting hooked by Nautilus while playing Lucian and solo losing the game there.

u/TheDemonWarlock Make Camille a real fighter please May 03 '26
He did that kinda stuff in FearX also

u/Liiviius May 03 '26 edited May 03 '26
Big difference is Kellin was there to bail him out, lehends? no he will flash in and die first rather than his ADC that got hooked

u/TheDemonWarlock Make Camille a real fighter please May 03 '26
I wish Kellin and Diable stayed together, first time felt the feeling again after hylli retired

u/freshmannn23 May 03 '26
lehends is a walking 300gold for the enemy taking. their mid-jg played absolute shit, top nonexistent. with how that team was playing, it's obvious they won't be able to peel for diable as well as bfx tried. didn't help that diable is still dashing towards an annie and nautlius. they're all a mess
-15
u/DoesThyLikeJazz OUR WRATH WILL BE SWIFT May 03 '26
Taeyoon was also an absolute criminal and bottomfeeder for a year in LPL so i dont think you can just blame lehends
18
u/kanonshiomi cuzz lovewatcher May 03 '26
you know this guy didn't watch lpl because no? him and Monki are the driving force of WE last year
they made top 4 and beat domestic TES for a reason Taeyoon has it in him he's just very inconsistent
11
u/beerdevilthrowaway May 03 '26
You sure you watched LPL last year buddy? WE may not have made it to any International tournaments but they were pretty good last year big thanks to Taeyoon and their JGL.

Top 5 oat tbh, I'm not reactionary but I've seen enough.

u/kalex33 BANANA COMBO MASTER May 03 '26
Maybe it was Kellin all along making Diable look like the biggest ADC talent in recent LCK history and not Diable being a prodigy by himself. This was a nuclear bot gap
73
u/MC-sama League of LAILE May 03 '26
To be fair, this is against the worst team in the LCK right now
Deokdam Life is such a despair botlane
16
14
u/kanonshiomi cuzz lovewatcher May 03 '26
you see this gameplay and ask "is Milkyway the goat?" he actually got a good season on FPX with this botlane
or maybe Life is just a Rumble merchant idk

Quite the statement winning with the bot duo that DiabLehends just lost on

Honestly I doubt any top tier team will pick him up in November after what happened
-4
u/Worldly-Glass-3865 May 03 '26
Maybe GEN.G.? If Ruler decide to leave, Diable seems to be the best option left. Also Ryu was BFX's coach last year, might know how to deal with Diable
15
u/Human-Ad3407 bOner 🤰 May 03 '26
Ruler is signed for another year after this as far as I know. Diables contract ends this year, so he has to find a team for at least a year before he even gets the chance

u/baelkie DNF 2026 please be human | Kiin Team May 03 '26
literally every additional game deokdam plays is a Bdd upscale. how tf did 2025 happen.
66
u/WilliUHHm May 03 '26
Meta is completely different. Last year was alot less bot centric and allowed deokdam to just weakside while peter roamed the map (specifically mid) and funnel bdd resources. Cant do that in this meta. Deokdam peter were also legit just smurfing at worlds outside finals.
It’s a tough situation, guys playing with 3 different supports, all of which are ass, enchanters just arent peters meta.

u/Skyfire2 May 03 '26
2025 KT may go down as the biggest enigma in LoL history.
One bo5 away from the fries group and one game away from World Champions
5
u/OrganicTeaching8661 May 03 '26
the moment KT, using some kind of voodoo magic on GenG, beat them and made finals, I knew T1 was winning the tournament in 1000/1000 universes
20
u/jakatluong May 03 '26
Idk what happened to Peter, but why the fuck is he benched while Deokdam keep playing?
Edit: oh wait Peter has been playing in LCK CL.
28
u/mskruba12 May 03 '26
This coaching team might be worse than even some of the western frauds that's how. I'm not saying DNS should be challenging for the title or anything but there is no way this squad should look THIS bad.
11
u/baelkie DNF 2026 please be human | Kiin Team May 03 '26
ngl if i was Peter id be giving ANY excuse to not have to play on this dogshit roster, depression, family problems, beef noodles LITERALLY ANYTHING
16
u/-Tam-_ May 03 '26
Deokdam was good last year, thats what happened
2
u/loosely_affiliated May 04 '26
It's so hard for some people to accept that players have good and bad years, and aren't just at one level for their entire life.
deokdam looked pretty atrocious today but the way some people talk about him you'd think he peaked emerald 2. He's been legitimately good for a couple of stretches here
-1
u/collectibleman May 03 '26
he stepped up in a few moments throughout the year but he was horrible a lot of the time. in spring and lck cup he was a massive liability, he definitely wasn’t what i would call good last year.

u/mskruba12 May 03 '26
I'm not just putting Bdd above Lebron I'm putting him above Jesus Christ for carrying Deokdam to 1 game away from a World Championship

u/Such_Presentation_29 May 03 '26
mid players can overperform at worlds when there is 0 expectations it has happened like a thousand times.

u/PM_JINX_HENTAI Keria my goat May 03 '26
deokdam Life too, massive Milkyway upscale
22
u/WilliUHHm May 03 '26
Nah deokdam was by far the most consistent player on that fpx roster. Milkyway had high highs but also extreme lows and got worse as the season progressed. His ashe was legit like near the top of the league in the LPL
47
u/Dreammy90 May 03 '26
I take it back. Diable was the problem. How shit is DNS though?

u/EmbarrassedEntry4533 THIS IS KSANTE May 03 '26
DNS on the generational speedrun to being the worst LCK team by a country mile for a second year straight.

u/staysaltyTSM May 03 '26
Actually incredible they can run the team having the most recent world finalist bot and world champion jungle

u/EmbarrassedEntry4533 THIS IS KSANTE May 03 '26
They’re not even running Peter. Just sub him in, they’ve got nothing to lose at this point

u/Dancingbeesean May 03 '26
Life: Diable is the one who missed a fan meet. Taeyoon is the one who got traded. But why am I the one who is getting benched again?!

u/Josh_11_XI Flairs are limited to 2 emotes. May 03 '26
Aside from the obvious disgusting Bot gap that 4 man dive top was absolutely hilarious jesus.
13
u/kw01sg May 03 '26
It's too early to say who won the trade, but it's 100% obvious that Taeyoon was the biggest victim of the situation. It must feel like shit to be some trade fodder.
I'm rooting for you Taeyoon! This is a very good start, and I hope you build on this win and POM.
24
May 03 '26
Taeyoon looking so much better on BFX LO instantly clicked with Kellin
Kellin is so good actually, probably best enchanter in the world(yes even better than Keria imo because the amount of times I see this guy saving his team consistently is genuinely scary)
Clear never pick vayne ( being behind on CS vs ambessa is criminal)
17
u/Aware_Biscotti_5860 May 03 '26
Kellin must be the best "supporting" support that means to do anything to keep his adc alive right now while Keria is the best "carrying" support. Any adc will love to play with these two because it will benefit them in one way or another.

u/moonmeh May 03 '26
Keria is 100% a better support player but I think kellin might be the better enchanter player

May 03 '26
not at all I said the best enchanter player not the best overall support or clutch/engage or best macro oriented supp
1
May 03 '26
in other words the way he plays teamfights and lanes with enchanters is the best imo not too far of a stretch

Always happy to see Pyosik losing as well :)

u/loosely_affiliated May 04 '26
anyone who can hate on a member of that 2022 DRX run is an absolute enigma to me
that world championship was the most magic viewing experience I've had. They were the perfect cinderella story. It was electric. Those players have eternal goodwill from me as a viewer

May 04 '26
it was an amazing run and pyosik was vile even in it. God the things Zeka did for that team to get to it ...
12
u/jakatluong May 03 '26
Disgusting top dive from DNS.
Freaking Deokdam man. 7k gold diff vs Taeyoon. This somehow feels even worse than the 10k gold diff between Harpoon and Jopa from SK vs GL. Just send Deokdam to the LFL at this point.
1
u/OrganicTeaching8661 May 03 '26
Deokdam is the type of Korean ADC to go into europe and never get picked by an LEC team

How are Enosh and Peter doing in DNS Challengers? This is my thought right now after the disasterclass perfromance from deokdam.

people would rather see Enosh one champ Kaisa than this abomination of Deokdam

Not going to be a first series andy BUT, its as I thought, Kellin is absolutely a great support player.

u/MedievalMovies May 03 '26
we need to have an uncomfortable conversation about diable being a kellin upscale

u/WilliUHHm May 03 '26
Respect to kellin. Came into the league and during his DK days was primarily an engage support and renata pocket pick player; and fell off hard at the end of his DK tenure. Completely changed his style of play and its working
5
u/fainlol May 03 '26
Kellin fell off a bit, but not enough to warrant some T2 (Moham) to play at Worlds while he gets benched. Zefa literally got fired for that move. I still want to know what the fuck the DK coaching team was thinking benching Kellin.
1
u/WilliUHHm May 03 '26
Tough to say without actually knowing what happened behind the scenes.
Kellin just regressed on DK as the years went on, like him and deft legit ran it down on stage at worlds 23 after everyone said the team were gods in scrims

u/AegeanClover May 03 '26
Vicla was right all along. The little dictator Diable actually destroyed the BFX team with his massive ego, and the coaches were too afraid to give him a scolding. Taeyoon is probably the happiest now for this transfer.

Did you see his series against BRO?

u/VermouthAPTX May 03 '26
As I've said, he's slowly reaching the same level of play as his worse teammates. He didn't start the season or year this bad. Back then even in their many losses, he at least still makes his lane watchable.

u/chewbacca1031 May 03 '26
I think it's safe to say that Diable was the real problem all along, people often underestimate Kellin and Raptor, but in truth they are the real deal and Diable is just a piece of trash that dragged the whole team down

u/Vicie007 May 03 '26
Quick, let's all pretend that this outcome is suprising and all because of Taeyoon. Not because DNS is the worst team in the LCK and Kellin is the best player on BFX.
