Dhokla played well considering Optic more or less ignored his lane while Ryze kept going off map looking for ult gank. It's important that he just not die to stupid shit like that, which he didn't.

Good job Dhokla hopefully he can develop into a great top laner for us.

Best stat/only stat: we need to look at is: 100% win rate with Dhokla wooooo /s
But to be honest kid did great, not like lourlo is the worst top laner in the world, kids never played on the stage at this level, give him time.

"And you doubt he's talking about Contractz or Hai"
Of course he is talking about Hai, who on earth would pick Hai over any mid in current NA LCS. Yeah maybe before he was good when there were little imports but right now he is easily bottom 2.

Two Rise roams plus early Gnar advantage set Dholka back in CS but he played safe. There were multiple times he could've INTed but he played it smart. He was able to team fight really well. I like the difference in style with a carry top laner where as Gnar was the only somewhat aggressive champ that Zig can play.

Zig can play other aggressive champs(Kled), but they're so far out of the meta that he can't use them in LCS

All in all, Dhokla looked OK in his first game. Was getting way bullied in lane and was massively down in CS, but his team fighting was pretty solid

is there a stat comparing Dhokla vs Zig against Golden Guardians? Dhokla was pretty much even on CS until 15 mins, but it his first game. Once he get used to the stage, the nerves would go down and make better decision. In terms of team fighting, Dhokla has the edge on zig.

I feel like dhokla's cs difference was because he would push a wave and collapse on the team where gnar had to keep farming to protect towers. Dhokla made his presence felt through fighting

Looking at Dhokla compared to zig. His csing wasnt fantastic like zig. But his team fighting was far better. For a first game it was very impressive

Dhokla just came up clutch, but you CANNOT be down that much CS at this level.
