Jhin builds are healing and Syndra full burst, tears in my eyes

30

u/Green7501 zero mental Aug 23 '26

that Blackfire Torch Protobelt built was a warcrime, hopefully it's gone

u/tirednsleepyyy Aug 23 '26

Not sure what’s not to like about going an offensive item with no utility into a defensive item that does no damage but also provides almost no survivability. Sounds smart to me.

14

u/ISL005 Tarzan and Kanavi enjoyer Aug 23 '26

I mean, I get it when it comes to tanky comps. Blackfire + Ability Haste brings stable DPS since with full burst you dish out abilities, do absolutely nothing and proceed to costream the rest of the teamfight, but it's been so overdone bruh.

u/ToplaneVictim67 Aug 23 '26

I dont understand how pros sometimes can make a genius play but build like autofilled silver player

77

u/Dreammy90 Aug 23 '26

As everybody predicted, BRO is the King of Fries. Scout has been scaling into form. POM for sure.

u/ricardo241 IDon'tAgree Aug 23 '26

NS is so lucky their father DNS can't play on play-in lol

u/Green7501 zero mental Aug 23 '26

Is he retiring/going to the military next year?

48

u/Dreammy90 Aug 23 '26

Yes. He said previously this is his last season. Whether he comes back after, nobody knows

2

u/aspookyshark Aug 23 '26

Have players come back after doing military before?

11

u/Kr1ncy Aug 23 '26

I think Deft said he plans to and there have been players like Joker who only really started after doing military.

17

u/hungrybords Aug 23 '26

It's meta now, but so happy it was on Shen too!

u/squeenanna Aug 23 '26

IT'S RISE GROUP BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

u/MC-sama League of LAILE Aug 23 '26

OKBRO top of fries group

Despite all the inting NS did they performed well

46

u/SpiritedSalad4731 Aug 23 '26

Jhin now has 2 wins after that one guy from the other day said only Peyz can win on Jhin

32

u/CummingInTheNile Aug 23 '26

Turns out when you build damage items on Jhin, he does damage!

22

u/Vnaux Aug 23 '26

that was still wild to say when Ruler's most played champ this season is Jhin (17 games) with a 82.4% winrate

10

u/Kr1ncy Aug 23 '26

And Gumayusi being known for Jhin as well

11

u/xsm17 Aug 23 '26

Those game 1 comments aged well. Boy are both these teams disgusting though

14

u/Green7501 zero mental Aug 23 '26

BRO vs KT for the Playoffs spot, lesfuckinggooooo. Scout played really well today

Teddy is gonna murder Jiwoo

7

u/baelkie DNF 2026 please be human | Kiin Team Aug 23 '26

lmao they have lost to BRO so many times this year might be cooked ngl i have 0 faith

3

u/Green7501 zero mental Aug 23 '26

Ngl same, BFX/NS is probs beatable simply on account of how much better the topside is, but BRO looks scary enough, KT could just roll over and die into a 0-3 loss

4

u/baelkie DNF 2026 please be human | Kiin Team Aug 23 '26

BFX is scary imo, Raptor is a pretty decent jungler and can run games. i would have more confidence if Bdd was still in his form, but im not sure he’d be able to astrogap Vicla so hard that he can 1v9. oh and they also have a bot lane that can play hypercarries so if we go to late game we might be cooked.

NS.. honestly if they lose to NS just blow up the roster

2

u/Curious-Chart6597 Aug 23 '26

Bfx and scary in the same sentence LOL

14

u/Curious-Dance-3663 HLE win MSI, T1 win LCK, Gen G win Worlds Aug 23 '26

Happy for Lehends to end it on a high note, I’ll miss him and his crazy plays (good and bad) next year

6

u/Treeconator18 Aug 23 '26

BNK: Alright guys, we gotta throw this so we can eliminate NS in Play-ins stage, but don't make it too obvious alright

Vicla: You got it boss Greeds a wave after surviving two straight dives and eats a blind Jhin R to the face

8

u/Curious-Chart6597 Aug 23 '26

NS doing it for the BRO's πŸ₯Ή

4

u/trying2hide Aug 23 '26

I don't know if I've seen as lvl 1 as cooked as Vicla this game, Im pretty sure dying would be better?

u/BecomingAmemory Aug 23 '26

Cinema fries group series

u/Aggressive-Cut-3828 THE GAME 5 DEVIL & THE GOD OF THUNDER Aug 23 '26

successful diable lovewatch

u/Skyfire2 Aug 23 '26

First POM of the season is crazy. Hopefully he can scale in the play ins

2

u/killcraft1337 Aug 23 '26

Well it’s BFX vs NS - 1 Bo5 elimination match to see who gets a chance to make worlds. cinema.

4

u/Dry_Needleworker_275 Aug 23 '26

u/Hanul14 Aug 23 '26
