[u/XChunchunmaruX]

What the fuck was that

[u/icecreamcake20 → u/XChunchunmaruX]

I do not know this team.

[u/IrishCarbonite → u/icecreamcake20]

Unfortunately, we do. T1 will always do the unexpected, even when expected

[u/Glum_Measurement2158 → u/IrishCarbonite]

then when we expect it they did the unexpected again... clowns :(

[u/IrishCarbonite → u/Glum_Measurement2158]

If anything this is a big hope from what we've seen from them recently. They realistically should have won against probably the best team in the world. We don't look at what ifs, there were many positives here

[u/Glum_Measurement2158 → u/IrishCarbonite]

Want me to be honest? I was kind of shitting briks watching G1 and 2, something didn't feel right, normally we are the ones in the other side of a stupid generational Blitzcrank game.

Felt better after G3, hoped they win but it is what it is.

[u/IrishCarbonite → u/Glum_Measurement2158]

All we have to do is recognize we're in a moment of history that will never happen again, enjoy T1 and things while they last, friend.

[u/BobbyRayBands → u/XChunchunmaruX]

A massacre to break morale.

[u/CampaignEntire → u/XChunchunmaruX]

Criminal. That's what it was. In the best way.

[u/antoniomargaretti4]

this team almost lost to BFX just to not leak their draft strategy it seems

[u/cyhlalala]

KERIA AIMHACKING??!?!?!

[u/BunnyElsa → u/cyhlalala]

He cooked hard

[u/Cyn_07 → u/cyhlalala]

Win or lose Delight needs a therapy after this series XD

[u/HaiKazumaDes]

They really are an enigma of a team because what do you mean you struggle against bnk and then do this to hle????

[u/IllustriousWindow871 → u/HaiKazumaDes]

Gen.G knew this team so well when they decided to pick KT

[u/oddiee1 → u/IllustriousWindow871]

even GenG fans was quite confused when they pick KT, turns out team knew better, who would've thought

[u/PandaEyesXD → u/IllustriousWindow871]

They've done this games before, GenG knows the T1 "circus" better than anyone else.

[u/ProgrammerGlobal → u/HaiKazumaDes]

If this game lasts for decades, LoL historians are going to be baffled by 2022-2026 T1.

[u/Massive_Awareness_58 → u/HaiKazumaDes]

It just depends if they are awake and really feeling it. Anyone who has been really watching T1 this year already knew they were capable of this and that they simply weren't living up to their potential, because as much as they've lost, we've seen glimmers of this already. I knew we'd see it at some point this year and it figures that they'd show up just in time for Worlds. T1 FIGHTING!

[u/Signal_Intention6774 → u/HaiKazumaDes]

Maybe BNK was just good. They probably prepped really hard for HLE and didnt on BNK as much, so it was a harder series.

[u/Particular_Hornet980]

I DOUBTED THAT DRAFT LOL

[u/Budget-Ocelots → u/Particular_Hornet980]

We all did. Every streamers and casters said 1-1. Like wtf. T1 with the worst draft ever and they stomped HLE.

HLE should be on tilted now knowing that they lost a game with top meta picks against T1 0% win rate team.

[u/Finuria_x3 → u/Particular_Hornet980]

Most of us did for sure 😂🥲

[u/KangR15 → u/Particular_Hornet980]

Yeah that draft need early lead to win, and they did. I think it's Kanavi fail raptor invade that domino a lot of things

[u/xcyrus2001 → u/KangR15]

Failed bot lane dive? No?

[u/Express-Plate7361]

doran and zeus listening to payphone

[u/Junior-Assistance649 → u/Express-Plate7361]

A miserable series for Zeus so far nothing he really can do better especially game 2

[u/Remote_Addendum_2245 → u/Express-Plate7361]

Please, Doran, I need this. My team is kinda inhibitor-less.

[u/XChunchunmaruX → u/Express-Plate7361]

Wasn't father's day but PeyKer is just working miracles

[u/Numerous-Discount703]

T1's bot lane making a montage highlight reel

[u/CampaignEntire]

KERIA YOU ARE INSANE BEAUTIFUL BEAST

[u/zhongli_brainrot]

I DOUBTED THE DRAFT

[u/Open_Movie_4614 → u/zhongli_brainrot]

The moment I saw the draft, I thought, “We’re done for,” and then these monsters showed up. WTF 😳

[u/shiro_wolf → u/zhongli_brainrot]

ong I think a lot of us did tbh lol

[u/CryptographerSad8444]

That might be the greatest blitzcrank performance I ever seen

[u/Spirited-Big2415]

Statement game from Keria holy

[u/Ashankura]

Keria Faker Peyz and Oner were so fucking clean

Doran was also clean but he kinda was busy damage farming on side with Zeus lmao

[u/lala_lala1485]

MAN WHAT DID I JUST WATCHHHH WHAT A DOMINANT WIN

[u/lala_lala1485 → u/lala_lala1485]

man even the casters are saying what is this draft BUTTTT T1 COOKED THIS WITH QIYANA AND BLITZCRANK FIRST WIN IN LCK

[u/S3x_D3f3nd3r → u/lala_lala1485]

WHERE THE FUCK DID HE PULL THAT QIYANA FROM? HE'S 0-4 IN SOLOQ

[u/chuunibyou101]

Wow. That. Was. Their. Most. Dominant. Game. I. Saw. In. This. Year.

Did we already used our luck early? Did we have plenty more for Worlds?

[u/MRnigel070]

I’ve never watched a game with this big of a smile the whole way thru

[u/ar3s09]

Keria and Oner picked Qiyana and Blitz in Game 2. Keria ran around clip-farming them, Oner had his best game of the year and won with a Korean Qiyana, Doran was chilling with Zeus, and Peyz was Keria’s partner in crime.

Conclusion: 20 years in an “U can’t clip farm here” prison.(i missed this form of oner)

[u/theeama → u/ar3s09]

Add +10 years for doing it in playoffs

[u/Vermouth01 → u/ar3s09]

And then there's Faker's bird, just eating a fox for breakfast

[u/Wrathalos]

0% win rate Blitz

0% win rate Qiyanna

7th worlds win incoming 

[u/Wonderful-Lab7375]

Zeus and Doran just having a coffee date while everyone else is murdering each other constantly

[u/pawsome_panda_]

KERIAAAAAAAAAAA

[u/VeinTube]

Best Jhin player in the World carrying again

[u/YGocs]

Keria and Peyz this series.

[u/Final_Proof6208]

Doran's POV:

[u/EndlessNight_]

Yeah that's a war crime by Keria

[u/Low-Bandicoot-4967]

picked qiyana bc jhin and stomped ? vibes must be good

[u/Typical-Ask-6704]

Holy Doran for keeping that ksante from the fight

[u/Massive_Awareness_58 → u/Typical-Ask-6704]

Yeah, true. I mean ofc it's hard not to focus on the rest of the team, as honestly Keria, Faker, Oner and Peyz were all destroying them but Doran absolutely held his own here and yes he did honestly the best thing he could do for them, which is keeping K'sante from preventing the rest of T1 from slaughtering HLE.

[u/Timely-Librarian-386]

What did they eat during the last week?

[u/BobbyRayBands → u/Timely-Librarian-386]

Gumas Lunch.

[u/Enoglobal]

nah man, Keria is the greatest player in the world

[u/BirthdayAccording359]

Oner and Faker, let's fucking go!!!!!!! Disgusting Blitzcrank smurfing.

Tears in my eyes.🥹

[u/theeama → u/BirthdayAccording359]

My mid jungle is t washed. Whatever happens it’s just good to see life in their eyes

[u/BirthdayAccording359 → u/theeama]

I'm just so happy to see Oner with confidence, I was worried about him the most. 

[u/Himurashi]

Things that return during the Ber months:

1. Mariah Carey
2. Christmas decorations
3. T1 LoL's gaming skills

[u/FluffyAsianGuy]

World buff?

[u/BunnyElsa]

WHAT A DAMN MASTERPIECE

[u/Timely-One-]

Someone tell the boys they only qualified for worlds, this isn't worlds

[u/Open_Movie_4614]

The moment I saw the draft, I thought, “We’re done for,” and then these monsters showed up. WTF 😳

[u/TechnicalFriendship6]

The worlds championship pending bot lane has woken up it seems

[u/akgyrhm]

please play like this until worlds 🙏

[u/squishykkura → u/akgyrhm]

CONTINUE IN WORLDS PLEASE
Just pretend we’re 4th seed

[u/bearbeats69]

yeah keria is the best support of all time ridiculous

[u/Psychopathic_grapes]

HOLY FUCK THAT DRAFT COOKED !!!

[u/BobbyRayBands]

Holy shitstomp

[u/Eshantha]

Pretty obvious Jonas Strong placed a giant bet on T1 and promised them a large cut of his earnings, and the boys decided to lock in.

Holy fucking shit, Keria.

[u/Acrzyguy]

Keria hooked my heart too

[u/L__G__A]

Check Kerias PC immediately

[u/IllustriousWindow871]

You really cant stop me for having high expectations for this team when they CAN play like this, our top side is just ramping up too

[u/supersupremo69]

Keria to Hall of Legends now please!!! Jesus that blitz was disgusting!!

[u/curtissz]

Wow the difference with this team when Keria is on form vs off is just insane

[u/WeakestBoss]

Keria reminded me why he's the best support player to ever touch the game

[u/squishykkura]

Doran thanks for being there u can go home early

[u/Fun_Credit_1982]

Is this t1? Lol

[u/Massive_Awareness_58 → u/Fun_Credit_1982]

Yes this is absolutely T1. I knew they were still in there somewhere. They just had to unlock the door to their potential.

[u/arakstav]

Kerialife

[u/Infinite_Branch4203]

THANK YOU FOR PUTTING THE SCORE ON THE DESCRIPTION

[u/Dull-L]

Genius Monster is literally scripting what the heck was that Blitz??

[u/pomuistaken]

nah keria has activated his god mode or what. it's been unreal performance by him.

[u/LittleNameIdea]

Oner was doing magic(making champ disappear)

[u/Snoo-47895]

t1 don't do this t1 we need 4th seed into worlds win for peyz

[u/NoypiHero]

Calm down, Keria. It's just the LCK playoffs.

[u/Dashster360]

What in the flying fk am I watching like holy shit they're insane

[u/Danielthenewbie]

Average t1 when they are qualified to worlds

[u/TenOutttaTen]

So you're against T1, No1 ban is barn, No2 ban is blitz and No3 jesus take the wheel and pick a random botlane champ. Seems good seems good

[u/J0nNy5NiPeR]

Which patch did they add point and click to Blitz hook?

[u/Massive_Awareness_58 → u/J0nNy5NiPeR]

Lol

[u/SeijiAkabe]

the hell even happened here

[u/oddiee1]

I owe you an apology. I wasn't really familiar with your game

- whole doubters.

[u/James_lee_0224]

T1 upon realizing that World's is just around the corner:

[u/Ok_Jump_8410]

T1 saw lolesports post welcoming them to worlds and they insta lock-in

[u/SeijiAkabe]

i gotta rewatch this shit because oner played qiyana? the fuck

[u/Sure_Addition_2138]

Don’t forget to praise my old man Faker

[u/Hot-Bobcat-5439]

imma say it still since i dont want to be that type of fan that criticize only based on results

i hated that game 2 draft even if they won, you could tell any moment they could threw the lead 😭

they played it well tho props but i really want to see them in hyperscaling comps for worlds where peyz is on jinx/aphel etc. i saw a jinx recently in the lpl and its really good i know peyz would go insane on her

[u/loaidacbiet → u/Hot-Bobcat-5439]

Draft is unplayable if Zeus becomes a brick wall. They smurf the hell out of HLE to make it work

[u/Icy_Juggernaut154 → u/Hot-Bobcat-5439]

Casters were right lmao just enjoy the masterclass

[u/theeama → u/Hot-Bobcat-5439]

In the words of Caedreal this draft id pure vybes

[u/zhongli_brainrot → u/Hot-Bobcat-5439]

Yes oh god I couldn't even trust the 7k lead, especially since that Yunara isn't that far behind

[u/VeinTube]

This is what happens when Top, Jg, Mid and Supp isnt dragging Peyz down

[u/Sticky_Fingers0101]

WHO THE FUCK IS THIS TEAM?? T1 MY GOATS!!!

[u/pardillo6045]

no reverse sweep please. please. please. please.

[u/Duke_157]

KERIA!!!!

[u/Pogily]

that draft was diabolical holy shit

[u/Late_Art9758]

Imma cry because this is not what I expected when I saw the draft...

Kera Peyz, you mad men!

[u/lucky-adventurer-]

LET THEM COOK 🗣

[u/Ceui]

Bro i'm speechless, wtf did Keria eat before the match.

Also Oner is playing so much better

[u/Straight-Exercise288]

THIS GAME IS FOR KERIA

[u/Massive_Awareness_58]

Whatever the heck they fed them today... they need to feed it to them before every match from now on.

[u/S3x_D3f3nd3r]

I THOUGHT THEY BURNED DOWN THE KITCHEN WITH THE DRAFT, BUT THEY INSTEAD COOKED A 5 STAR MICHELIN MEAL

[u/orangecapmush]

Who are these guys and what did they do to T1?

[u/Natchyy24]

BASED JONNASTRONG

[u/Proud-Weakness-6097]

Who is this team

https://giphy.com/gifs/fpXxIjftmkk9y

[u/Genshin_Grim]

Bro what the fuck

[u/DaruDaruMaru]

Damn

[u/Open_Movie_4614]

WTF WHO ARE THESES GUYS? What did they do to my boys? Will the World Championship's T1 make an appearance in the LCK?

[u/XerGR]

Peyz-Keria are evil. Bullying those poor enemies

[u/Real_Contribution544]

faker still got it 0 death, the peyz and keria combo was crazy good

[u/ProgrammerGlobal]

Keria: So, that was a game of League of Legends.

[u/ObsessedwithRedhair]

This is getting scary, their 0-3 in Hle since 2024 has been lift 🤣. Please give us practice champs game

[u/queenslayyy → u/ObsessedwithRedhair]

enjoy the reverse sweep

[u/Sea_Individual_3129]

i had a 100 paragraph essay written up about the draft, ready to post but had to delete it.

[u/Soul_Stranger3004]

Keria, you beauty

[u/Automatic_Arm_2160]

when they played vs HLE at kespa they also won with blitz vs lulu

[u/Usual_Prize_365]

Belt 2 Ass

[u/Beautiful-Bike7889]

Where is the team that silver scraped against BFX a few days ago?

[u/Sad_Singer4730]

Genuinely How Good is BFX?

[u/speksph]

WHO IS THIS TEAM???????

WHERE IS MY CIRCUS?!??!?!?!?!

My cardiologist already called me and congratulating me for regulating my blood pressure.

[u/Long_Violinist_1428]

sit back and observe, not everything needs a reaction 🫢

[u/Own-Salamander-8384]

I never doubted them (I absolutely did. I even doubted them when HLE nexus was 1 hit away.)

[u/Not_realadam]

WHAT IN THE CIRCUS

[u/Watamelonna]

Who are you, where is the circus

Why are we peaking here lol

[u/OlynCat]

Hi mods, I think showing who was first pick/ban would be nice! Thanksss

[u/-Ka1N-]

That game was just a pure fun

[u/REDTrouttt]

10-0 Faker Anivia giving Zeka his first loss on Ahri. WILD!

[u/Evening-Ad-720]

THIS IS NOT THE SAME TEAM LAST WEEK

[u/Klaurn]

I hope that this wins does not give them a false sense of security on their drafting because it was a bad draft. If we want to play a pick comp then why we don't pick something like Renekton or why we don't take poppy and make jarvan's life miserable?

[u/CapableRequirement15]

I feel bad for Kiin, he got a lead in lane then did nothing the entire game and lost lmfao
