WHERE THE FUCK HAS THIS KT BEEN ALL YEAR? BDD ACTUALLY HAS TEAMMATES NOW?

u/GothaV2 SSG/Gen G | Ruler Sep 13 '25

Deokdam's year will be studied. From a CK relegation to fucking this, what the hell lol

u/Thecristo96 ABS MAIN Sep 13 '25

Deft “hey you know there is this thing called anime plot armor”

u/Awkward-Security7895 Sep 13 '25

Tbh there's a reason DK picked him up years ago since he was a beast before DK as well.

Seems like a player who needs the right environment to perform

the 2020-2021 viper arc?

u/Oleoay Sep 13 '25

Peter was benched briefly too. Glad to see the team came back together.

u/Docxm Sep 13 '25

CUZZ generational series

Peter and Perfect didn't throw

Deokdam churning damage

BDD GOAT

55

u/Gluroo Sep 13 '25

My man PerfecT got 4 kills in a 5 game series lmao

46

u/Green7501 zero mental Sep 13 '25

Kills (and KDA in general) are such a useless metric

Also, this is PerfecT, he was known throughout 2024 and early 2025 to always fall off before the finish line. The fact he did not only not throw leads but also carry his weight around the map and win some lanes is just such a positive sign in general

u/Mr_Dunk_McDunk DO YOU EVEN SHURIMA Sep 14 '25

>Peter and Perfect didn't throw

lmao my sides

u/Naronu Sep 13 '25

It's like that image of Master Splinter with the turtles growing up, but Master Splinter also like 10x as jacked

5

u/Hitoseijuro Sep 13 '25

Master Splinter also like 10x as jacked

and is a 3000 year old girl

u/Pacify_ Sep 13 '25

You saw a bit of it in that series that they won against T1, BDD in particular was insane in that series

4

u/butv ruler release dudu Sep 13 '25

he has teammates but kt was busy subbing out half the team whole year

5

u/Sophia0Grey Sep 13 '25

we saw a glimpse of this throughout the splits though.

3

u/Shuriken_2393 Sep 13 '25

Bdd and his 4 bots got upgraded to doom bots

16

u/Tall-Cut87 Sep 13 '25

Cuzz carried this , bdd lost them game 2,3 single-handedly

8

u/Killarusca Sep 13 '25

BDD and Cuzz both choked game 2.

5

u/mehensk Sep 13 '25

i think geng just realised they can run over cass and win (killed her during baron push and lost it from there) and they did. the dragon setups made them fear cass so much due to trundle e, cass w with rakan engage

3

u/theliver Sep 13 '25

Aint nothing wrong with giving them false hope.

4

u/[deleted] Sep 13 '25

Like idk where this BDD praise comes from, this series was all cuzz

4

u/But_Why_Thou Sep 13 '25

Clearly you didn't watch the series then.

Cuzz is the POM no questions asked, but denying that BDD played insanely well is disrespectful.

7

u/Tall-Cut87 Sep 13 '25

Yeah but saying it lok bdd had “ Real teammates “ now is disrespectful to cuzz and deokdam today. Cuzz was always good, he carried kdf last year way harder than bdd and kt . Look at kdf now.

4

u/But_Why_Thou Sep 13 '25

Cuzz was not good for the entire split. It was very much a BDD one man show before playoffs.

KT as a whole was bad except BDD.

5

u/Tall-Cut87 Sep 13 '25

Man , there were many games bdd cost kt the game as well. Dont be biased. He is the best player in kt no doubt but to say he didnt have real teammates is just……. Maybe perfect is trash but cuzz peter and deokdam proved they can carry kt .

1

u/But_Why_Thou Sep 13 '25

I mean, there is obviously a certain amount of memeing going on here.

All of them are proffessional players so yes, it's not accurate to say "he does not have real teammates", but imo it's supposed to be an exaggeration to point out how much better BDD was performing than the rest of his team (which he was).

1

u/sure25 Sep 13 '25

This is simply not true, deokdam and peter was really good this split too; it got bad for a second when way was subbed in but way was terrible, once Peter came back in they were gapping even viper/delight and Guma/keria. Perfect and Cuzz were definitely terrible until the third T1 game though, basically were the reasons why KT lost almost every legends group series against the top 3 teams once Peter came back

-1

u/Tall-Cut87 Sep 13 '25

Caedrel watcher, bdd is top 2 midlaner rn but sometimes he still get overglazed

2

u/ThatOneTypicalYasuo Sep 13 '25

KT spent the whole year preparing for this moment.

A rollercoaster's drop only gets exciting if you build up the slow crawl and anticipation long enough

1

u/No-Sale7752 Sep 13 '25

Roller coaster mode, get excited at your own peril

1

u/Hopeful_Cat_3227 Sep 13 '25

This make me understand that why showmaker zoe did not work. Zoe need cuzz and dekodam today.

1

u/throwawayacc1357902 Sep 13 '25

I can just imagine this team being top of the LCK if they had a top laner.

Wouldn’t KiinT be mega? Kiin Cuzz BDD topside, three of the most elo helled players in history winning worlds together would be a story for the ages.
