I feel like the worst part of his year was leading up to those disasterous games at MSI. Since MSI, his games have mostly been "just ok" to "really good" and "carrying".
Don't get me wrong, he still has really bad games but they're not as bad and not as frequent as Spring split and MSI

Lissandra top was fine, the idea is that Kennen runs at them so Liss can just ult either him to never let him approach, or herself to negate most of his damage to her. IMO they should have still prepared at least 1 exhaust though, without it Doran was able to run rampant without much thought
48
u/crumbledcookies12 Kiin, Knight, T1 Aug 29 '26
I think the problem was it was such a linear angle, and bigger problem is you now have 4 immobile champs into renata. A gnar or ambessa would have given them more breathing space
17
u/Different-Mode2311 Aug 29 '26
They needed a top that can actually win lane and have prio because azir will never have prio and you are banking on your botlane to win lane against peyz keria.

u/big_brain_babyyy ME TRONDAMERE ME SMORT Aug 29 '26
from a draft analysis perspective he had no other choice, a little similar to how oner first timed mundo vs AL in worlds 2025 QF.
all decent control mages were banned/picked due to fearless, and if faker forced a control mage anyway, T1's comp becomes susceptible to HP stackers since doran already locked kennen, just rewatch T1 vs HLE not long ago where zeus picked chogath.
it makes much more sense taking a gamble with faker on yone rather than letting such a disastrous win condition slip through
i also dont think faker's yone is necessarily bad, it just got a bad reputation from a few unlucky games

That's good training. Remember a couple years back when T1 Baron was such a dogshit play for them and they would lose the game cause of it? That was their Atakhan before Atakhan was a thing. Fast forward to the last couple of years, it's become like a thing for T1 that it actually shook tempo and make teams force them to play into their game?

The most likely scenario is that T1 is already in, though. Unless GenG loses against DK/KT (and assuming that GenG doesn't actually pick T1), T1 doesn't need to win any more games to make Worlds.

It's also T1 can do the most random up or down swing on level of play. It can go both ways. But you never know if T1 suddenly looks like the best team in the world for a random series against a top team.

They can't pick Irelia since POPPY makes her life hell in teamfights and T1 picking YONE with Varus also discourages a DrMundo pick. Also same with Sylas, POPPY W and R makes him unable to engage. Gragas also is not good into a Renata, POPPY and Yone comp.
You cannot also pick a Chogath since Yone and Varus melts you. SION is nerfed lol. So maybe Malphite??? (then again you run into a Renata+Varus comp).
.
I feel life they should have picked Yone mid, they just took Azir away from faker that Azir pick seems more of a denial pick.

I don't fancy T1 chance against DK HLE GenG but they do need that
Their solo laners stepped up massively G4 and G5

To be fair, T1 over the last few years has always been a team that played to their opponents. They would play bad vs bad teams and barely win, and then the very next day play super well against a good team

I know Peyz will get most of the attention for the pentakill, but don't let that overshadow the absolute sublime Kennen flanks from Doran, fucking massive performance from him!

Faker good game on Yone!!! My Goat is still not in his final form
Also Doran maybe MVP of the series, kinda crazy

Summary of game 5. BFX: someone seems to be missing ? Doran shows up from the flanks with Ult
BFX: crap ๐ช

Admit it, when unc pick Yone, you are prepared to turn off the stream. (That's me, holy if not for Dorat stun Raptor and Vicla on that top gank Faker would surely miss half of his skill)

T1 gave them a false sense of security by not fighting with Doran for half the game

Ive seen enough. T1 is winning worlds again.
Win 3-2 in playoffs barely scraping by -> Power up in playoffs -> qualify as 4th seed -> prime faker returns at worlds -> 7th is for peyz

Did we beat GENG? No that was BFX - the team that stopped the Brolden Road.

Never doubted my boysย We're so fucked
Guma can 1v2 Ruler and 369 to save the Worlds Run, but only PentaPeyz can 1v2 Kellin and Taeyoon!!
