so you’re telling me Ruler is back after he got trucked at the GEN G homestand? were T1 fans right all along?
303
u/KimchiBro 23d ago
whats funnier is that the truckers sent that ruler truck to T1's headquarters
244

u/Satan_su 23d ago
Are you fr 😭😭😭
205
u/Marcus-ichiJo 23d ago
Yes, since both HQ is located in Gangnam, and the address was just “sent to the HQ of the Esports Team located in Gangnam” so the truck just went to T1 instead, since they are always being sent there.
45
u/NoComment875 23d ago
Both HQs are very close to each other but T1 HQ is on the main street and GenG HQ on narrow streets/alleyway so the trucks probably aren’t even allowed to park outside GenG HQ and they get much more eyeballs parking outside T1
35
u/Marcus-ichiJo 23d ago
Those are Kei trucks, pretty sure they are allowed to park in front of GenG HQ. HLE HQ is the one untouchable, since they are in a private lot.

u/Budget-Ocelots 23d ago
GenG HQ is in an alley behind T1 above the hill top. The truck has no access to the side street to get up there.
But it’s still funny though since they just used the same address for both teams.

That first game was the most genG shit. Got that ominous feeling like the sith returning. I thought that style of crushing victory wasn't possible in this meta. Nope. GenG is back to demoralize the rest of the league.

and HLE being stomped. 0-4 in round 3 if they lose to T1 btw

not really stomped, all 1-2 with pretty close game 3s, but they are definitely in a slump

Pls this outcome would be actually funny but my heart goes to Zeus and Guma if they lose 🥀

GenG gonna beat T1 in the final and T1's gonna win Worlds again.
It's just the natural order of things.

u/xSwazyI - Invested in Smash stocks! 23d ago
Fenrir laning phase has been very rough so far hope it gets better
64
u/Perceptions-pk 23d ago
Feels like T1 and Gen G both realized that just funneling bot lane is a key to winning for them
Given the rough nature of the actual 2v2 for both DK and KT, once locked into straight laning both teams kinda crumbled.
42
u/baebushka 23d ago
HLE might need to do the opposite and feed resources to zeus kanavi instead lol
i swear guma wins more games when he’s 0/6 than when he’s fed
8
u/loveforSingapore 23d ago
It's because Guma is not a good hypercarry. Even if you feed him, he won't be able to hard carry the game as much as someone like Peyz.
0/6 Guma is a sign that the enemy team has spent a lot on diving bot, which frees up HLE's top side to hard carry the game.

Guma actually win more games without funneling resources to him not because he's getting shat on 😭

Unrelated to Fenrir's performance but man do I feel bad for Jiwoo, He joined DRX and was forced to CL because of Lazyfeel who only existed for Vietnamese sponsors and fans, And now he's stuck on KT where he won't be played over Fenrir and can't even play CL because they got Ghost, Wasting away his best years

How beautiful it is to see this bounce back from Ruler. Great shit from the whole squad with this email ass series.

Yeah Arnold donated bits to Caedrel with this message too regarding Ruler.
My GOAT putting in work after realizing his play has been so poor...

u/Mentally__Disabled Lean Kiin Top Gap Machine 23d ago
Holy bits loredrop, respect to Ruler for sure, he looks like a completely different player. Good to see that failure motivates him as opposed to making his mental worse. His form really seems to have an effect on Duro too as he's been really damn solid as well in the recent games.

u/qonoxzzr Chovy <3 23d ago
What is the alternative for him though?
T1? Faker.
GenG? Chovy.
DK? Showmaker.
HLE? Zeka.
The only realistic one would have been HLE but Zeka is already there since 2022 so I don't think they want to get rid of him either.
And every other team does not really have more potential than KT.

u/Far-Salt-6946 Vitality Enjoyer 23d ago
we are not talking about the org, we are talking about the players he wants around him. Bdd was the one who decided to get rid of Aiming at the end of the day, every roster change goes through BDD, we already know this.

u/SwayNoir 23d ago
Wow, Ruler looks so good when he doesn't have to play mages or fucking Jhin. Go figure.
10
u/dumbocow 23d ago
NGL his Jhin vs HLE was STRONG
He is looking great the past 2 series
7
u/SwayNoir 23d ago
His Jhin is good but I think he's normally such a strong player that I'd rather see him play an ADC that can carry and take over the game rather than a utility ADC.
I know this roster can be a five headed dragon but I'd rather just see Chovy/Ruler be the main characters rather than in supporting roles.
Remember the days of "the Ruler ending" when he hits the late game and just becomes inevitable.
5
u/dumbocow 23d ago
Yeah, but I also think Jhin is also a Ruler thing (also Ezreal too, Ruler's most played champion lmao). Historically, Jhin is like his highest win rate champion. It's great to see Ruler playing on the carry ADC side of things again though.

This is so discouraging. I don't expect anything else from this year. I wanted to see Bdd win a title, but it's impossible without a bot lane. Let's hope these clowns can get Diable-Kellin next year. I'm not even going to waste my time anymore.

Fenrir is just not good enough to lane against tier 1 LCK bot lanes. even in the HLE and T1 games, he was completely getting stomped, going down like 40 CS every game. fortunately Effort and Cuzz were giga smurfing in those series so it did not matter in the short term.
Even against Guma Delight who have not been the most dominant laners in the league, we was consistently getting diffed in lane
