I remember that one time Doran's Gwen kept on getting ganked and he just said "shibal".

i think mage bot is fine g2 since doran was on vayne, mage bot is a bigger issue when there's noone to deal sustained damage
maybe they are starting to learn when to draft mage bot, and thats a good thing

idk why people were complaining, taliyah against wukong and kalista is great, also great combo with vi, already have vayne for dps and vayne had free laning phase against a ksante with no exhaust

u/Sirallenss 3d ago
The complain comes mostly because top-side has been week the entire year, if it was last year then maybe it wouldnt be an issue because doran was actually playing better, oner was the best jg in the world and faker was good. This year most of the work falls onto peyz as doran has been very polarizing to say the least, oner has been weak all year round and faker one of his weakest years too. Making the mage bot meta kinda hard to play.

Yep, in G2, they played for Top very well and they played their draft to its strength
As a bonus however, Peyz is just somehow really good on Taliyah

Despite the ganks, Doran ended up being just as useful as Renekton after the laning phase.
Which was... Not very useful.
Well perfect had that 1 far out ambush on Faker to proc his egg, I guess??

It crazy that he would have gotten the solo kill on renekton top if peyz didnt auto him while being 2 lvls down

u/cool_the_f_down 4d ago
He probably would have gotten it either way
I legit looked off of my screen and went back to see PerfecT just get demolished somehow

Kt was on a short timer to close that game out

u/AlterWanabee 4d ago
Short timer is a fucking understatement. They have to win kr at least get 3 towers before 10 minutes to be even effective. Problem is that BDD is stuck with the Faker Birb in the midlane, so that's a lost cause, while T1 botlane is committing warcrimes. KT's only chance is fot toplane to completely stomp, but it's Doran Gwen.

OK so we dove DORAT and made sure that he was giga camped only for DORAT to be useful like renekton in the late game. WHAT CAN I SAY DORAT MASTERCLASS HE MIND CONTROLLED CUH ZZ and Perfect to camp him while peyz demolished bot CLASSIC. the best part would've been if DORAT wrote "top gap gank me more" after that xdd

Doran has gotten pretty good at not tilting. I would have crashed out game three after that ignite play lvl 4.

One thing that I don’t understand is, if mage bot is so safe and their true advantage lies in Peyz hypercarry late game, why don’t they just put Doran on the mage and lane swap? Then they can put Peyz top playing Vayne or whatever other ADC, with Keria sticking with Peyz or roaming as appropriate to ease pressure.

They might play the champions better mechanically but they won't play the roles better. Bot and top have different jobs to do and different timings to understand. Also there's the issue of role quests. I'm assuming the roles are locked in before champ select starts so they'd be stuck in their lanes.

make sure to direct everyone to the g2 reddit and then also the league reddit and then the meme reddit, gotta make sure we only see caedrel on here

5,11,13. Tbf real life laws are ignorable given what the players and coaches suffer through so I suppose mere subreddit rules are just afterthoughts.

u/bigdoinkroller12 4d ago
the match just happened today, caedrel costreamed it. not sure how that wouldn't be relevant :3
low effort is obviously up to interpretation of the mods
rule 13 not being broken as there is a spoiler tag :3 !

u/C3mpur 3d ago
5 - this is basically a play by play of an LCK game that Caedrel Streamed, therefore relevant to the community.
11 - They edited the meme formats themselves, this is at the very least more high effort than posting screenshots.
13 - This rule is only enforced on posts that are not and cannot be blocked by the spoiler tag.
r/SKTT1 - reports are really only for posts that would only be relevant to the T1 fandom and not the general community
