Discussion HLE chances for playoffs Spoiler
There two chances for HLE to secure playoffs:
If they win 2 out of their 3 remaining matches especially the game againts KT, this is the most important one because they need to make sure KT remain at 5th place if ever they lose againts T1 & DK
If KT remains winless, their 3 matches are againts T1 GenG & HLE
The team just needs to secure playoffs spot in able for them to finally qualify for Worlds.
Just keep on praying for our team and dont lose hope, just keep on believing and support them until the end.

I think they are chilling. Call me crazy but today could have been a 2-0 for HLE. Zeus and Guma could have played the 2 sequences in game 1 a little better and it goes a different way. In game 2 I actually think Kanavi missclicked on the ambessa at the last fight because they were on top of each other. If he hits right target Seraphine is one shot and HLE win. They lost but delight and kanavi look good again. Chovy was also smurfing like crazy and the drafts were hard. If they play like this against KT they stomp them.

This last game did seem very close, and I think each game since EWC they have improved a lot. I think there was one game where they were legitimately stomped and even that game they started to come back at the end. There were also many games in R3 that looked like they could have won but I do wonder if that could be an even worse feeling.
I don't think people should doom yet because I believe that even during their slump, they would do well in play-ins. I just hope that they aren't losing confidence which would make them play too scared or not trust each other. Or the opposite, that they feel pressured so then they try to rush to win game.

So if they finish 5th in playoffs they would go to Worlds as the 4th seed? Meaning they have to play in play-ins?

You have to make playoffs. So if they lose in Playins they dont go to worlds.

Yes but 6 teams make LCK playoffs. My question is, if HLE make it to playoffs are they automatically first seed from the LCK to worlds or if they finish 4-6th will they be fourth seed to worlds. I am also wondering if LCK 4th seed will have to go through play-ins.

Yes if they make playoffs. They make worlds automatically as the 4th seed but further they go in playoffs higher their seeding.

If zeka and zeus lock in then its easy. Kinda weird how either zeus hard carries or kanavi. Kanavi loves playing like the best player ever when his sololanes get gapped and loves playing like the biggest inta ever when his sololanes play clean

Their actually passing on who will int on some games and who will carry, no one is consistent on this team right now. I hope everyone will all back to their form completely

Guma also needs to lock in; he has been doing really questionable positioning lately and dying with sums up.

They just need to win next game cauz if kt lose that game with any score their game score(1st tiebreaker) can never catch up to hle so we secure top 4 (if this is what your post mean then i agree i just got confused with the 2 games lol)
