WEBVTT

02:30.000 --> 02:33.280
I can do whatever I want, all day

02:33.280 --> 02:36.480
I don't need to try, so this is all DNA

02:36.480 --> 02:39.280
I'm gonna cry, I'm gonna cry

02:39.280 --> 02:42.640
Even if I do it together, I won't be able to do it together

02:42.640 --> 02:46.480
Look at me, you can't do it together

02:46.480 --> 02:49.520
I don't care, I don't care

02:49.520 --> 02:52.560
I'm gonna be in front of you

02:52.560 --> 02:55.520
I'm gonna be in front of you

02:55.520 --> 02:58.320
I'm gonna be in front of you

02:58.320 --> 03:00.320
I'm a financier

03:00.320 --> 03:02.320
I'm gonna focus on me

03:02.320 --> 03:04.320
If I like it

03:04.320 --> 03:06.320
Let me get it

03:06.320 --> 03:08.320
But you can't be like me

03:08.320 --> 03:10.320
I'm so much

03:10.320 --> 03:12.320
I'm still in this state

03:12.320 --> 03:16.320
I can't say anything about you

03:16.320 --> 03:20.320
I'm standing in front of you

03:20.320 --> 03:22.320
I don't even know

03:22.320 --> 03:26.320
if it's a dream

04:26.320 --> 04:31.320
I can't help it, I don't know what I'm talking about

04:31.320 --> 04:35.320
I don't know if I like it, I'ma get it

04:35.320 --> 04:38.320
I can't help it, I'm so far away

04:38.320 --> 04:42.320
I'm still standing, I'm still standing

04:42.320 --> 04:45.320
I can't run, I can't run

04:45.320 --> 04:48.320
I want it, you're the world I want

04:48.320 --> 04:52.320
I want it, can you come follow me?

04:52.320 --> 04:55.320
I can't help it, I can't help it

06:55.320 --> 06:58.440
And you better get the beat, I got you, get it, fuck it, you are

06:58.440 --> 07:02.040
And you just get in the wild, and I got something to do

07:02.040 --> 07:03.640
Don't I like it?

07:16.760 --> 07:18.760
I'm not as good as you get to be

07:18.760 --> 07:20.760
Somebody like me

07:20.760 --> 07:22.760
I can't imagine if you knew

07:22.760 --> 07:25.760
I can't do whatever everything I want all day

07:25.760 --> 07:28.760
I don't need to try, this is all DNA

07:28.760 --> 07:32.760
I'm always you, I'm always you

07:32.760 --> 07:35.760
Even if I do it together, I can't do anything

07:35.760 --> 07:39.760
Look at me, I can't even open my eyes

07:39.760 --> 07:42.760
I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do

07:42.760 --> 07:45.760
I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do

07:45.760 --> 07:49.760
I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do

07:49.760 --> 07:53.120
I'm a, I'm a, I'm a financier

07:53.120 --> 07:55.120
I'm gonna focus on me

07:55.120 --> 07:58.560
If I like it, I'm a-getting

07:58.560 --> 08:00.560
Oh you can't be with me

08:00.560 --> 08:01.920
I'm a-getting

08:01.920 --> 08:04.960
I'm still a-getting

08:04.960 --> 08:08.960
I'm a-getting

08:08.960 --> 08:10.800
I'm a-getting

08:10.800 --> 08:12.800
I'm a-getting

08:12.800 --> 08:14.800
I'm a-getting

08:14.800 --> 08:16.800
I'm a-getting

08:16.800 --> 08:21.800
I know nothing about you, I'm not the one

08:21.800 --> 08:24.800
I'm a fake, I'm just a fake, I'm different from you

08:24.800 --> 08:27.800
You're the only one I can show you, that's it

08:27.800 --> 08:30.800
The more I go, the more special it gets

08:30.800 --> 08:33.800
Now, come in, yeah, focus on me

08:33.800 --> 08:38.800
You're the only one I can show you, I'm the only one

08:38.800 --> 08:43.800
You're the only one I can show you, I'm the only one

08:43.800 --> 08:46.800
Yeah, it's a little funny, so make it

08:46.800 --> 08:49.800
If I like it, I'm the guy here

08:49.800 --> 08:52.800
Oh, you can't like me, I'm so much

08:52.800 --> 08:55.800
I'm still here, I'm still here

08:55.800 --> 08:59.800
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running

09:01.800 --> 09:04.800
I'm a feeling in my mind

09:04.800 --> 09:07.800
No matter what you say to me

09:07.800 --> 09:09.800
I know my power

09:09.800 --> 09:12.800
I can't do it, I'm at the top of the world

09:43.800 --> 09:45.800
Follow me, I like it

09:45.800 --> 09:47.800
I can't take my eyes off of you

09:47.800 --> 09:50.800
Take a deep breath and breathe

09:54.800 --> 09:56.800
Hit the bass drum, make me feel good

09:56.800 --> 09:58.800
One, two, three, we're going to fight

09:58.800 --> 10:01.800
Yeah, we're going to take the world full of flow

10:01.800 --> 10:04.800
When the beat goes, we can't do anything

10:04.800 --> 10:06.800
Hey, hey, hey, look at my lady

10:06.800 --> 10:09.800
Let's not waste our time

10:09.800 --> 10:11.800
That's my, it's gonna be great

10:41.800 --> 10:43.800
Wow, I'm so dizzy, I'm so tired

10:43.800 --> 10:45.800
I'm so tired, I'm so tired

10:45.800 --> 10:47.800
I'm so tired, I'm so tired

10:47.800 --> 10:49.800
I'm so tired, I'm so tired

10:49.800 --> 10:51.800
I'm so tired, I'm so tired

10:51.800 --> 10:53.800
I'm so tired, I'm so tired

10:53.800 --> 10:55.800
I'm so tired, I'm so tired

10:55.800 --> 10:57.800
Hit the pace, from a game to a mood

10:57.800 --> 10:59.800
One, two, three, four, we're going to fight

10:59.800 --> 11:01.800
Tonight, we're going to take

11:01.800 --> 11:03.800
I can't turn back, my friend

11:03.800 --> 11:05.800
We got no time for hesitation

11:05.800 --> 11:07.800
That now, take that, no fuel

11:07.800 --> 11:09.800
Still like living in the magic

11:09.800 --> 11:11.800
Yeah, I'm a kid who dances like a kid

11:11.800 --> 11:13.800
Yeah, I like the champagne

11:13.800 --> 11:15.800
Let us keep up the care

11:15.800 --> 11:17.800
I guess I watch it, gonna dance

11:17.800 --> 11:19.800
I'm gonna get some time

11:19.800 --> 11:21.800
I can't change anything

11:21.800 --> 11:23.800
I'm only in your mood

11:23.800 --> 11:25.800
I'm a figure-struck

11:25.800 --> 11:27.800
To the left, to the right

11:27.800 --> 11:29.800
I'm gonna shake these guys up

11:29.800 --> 11:31.800
To the left, to the right

11:31.800 --> 11:33.800
I'm gonna shout out to you

11:33.800 --> 11:35.800
I'm gonna wave

11:35.800 --> 11:37.800
I'm gonna lose you

14:07.800 --> 14:09.800
I

17:37.800 --> 17:39.800
I'm dizzy, I'm lost in the night

17:39.800 --> 17:41.800
Until I'm full of expectations

17:41.800 --> 17:43.800
I'm so tired of the new world

17:43.800 --> 17:45.800
I'm so tired of the new world

17:45.800 --> 17:47.800
I'm so tired of the new world

17:47.800 --> 17:49.800
I'm so tired of the new world

17:49.800 --> 17:51.800
I'm so tired of the new world

17:51.800 --> 17:53.800
Hit the bass drummer, this is the right mood

17:53.800 --> 17:55.800
One, two, three, we're gonna fight

17:55.800 --> 17:57.800
Tonight we're gonna take it

17:57.800 --> 17:59.800
We can't turn it around, we're friends

17:59.800 --> 18:01.800
We got no time for hesitation

18:01.800 --> 18:03.800
Then now take that black feel

18:03.800 --> 18:05.800
Feel like living in the magic

22:35.800 --> 22:39.800
Okay, if you're the talk of the town, I'm gonna give you a kick off.

22:49.800 --> 22:51.800
Good times to make your vibe get down.

22:55.800 --> 22:57.800
That tree with that big tiger sound.

25:27.800 --> 25:30.540
I don't know what you're doing, but I'm going to get a little better

25:30.540 --> 25:34.040
It's the fire that's right, it's just you know how

25:34.040 --> 25:37.040
I'm just too busy to get to the bottom of my heart

25:37.040 --> 25:39.180
Ah, I'm gonna get you, I'm gonna get you

25:39.180 --> 25:41.000
I'm gonna get you, I'm gonna get you

25:41.000 --> 25:42.940
I'm gonna get you, I'm gonna get you

25:42.940 --> 25:44.240
I don't know what you're doing, but I'm gonna get you

25:44.240 --> 25:47.080
I'm gonna get you, I'm gonna get you

25:47.080 --> 25:49.720
Hit the bass drum again, this is the right mood

25:49.720 --> 25:52.080
One, two, three, four, it's gonna be a great day

25:52.080 --> 25:53.240
Tonight, it's the night, one, two, three

25:53.240 --> 25:55.000
I can't let you go, I'm your friend

25:55.000 --> 25:57.400
You know we got no time for hesitating

25:57.400 --> 26:02.400
That mountain, take that bus, feel, feel like, living in the mattress

26:02.400 --> 26:07.400
I'm a street girl who dances and dances, let me put it in champagne, let us fuck it

26:07.400 --> 26:10.400
I guess don't watch it, gonna go swim to the gas tank

26:10.400 --> 26:13.400
I can't get enough of the water, I can't get enough of the water

26:13.400 --> 26:17.400
It's your own movement, the volume of the water that's floating on the floor

26:17.400 --> 26:19.400
To the left, to the right

26:19.400 --> 26:22.400
I'm a little bit better than the others

26:22.400 --> 26:24.400
To the left, to the right

30:54.400 --> 30:56.400
I feel good

30:56.400 --> 30:58.400
One, two, three, fight, make a comeback

30:58.400 --> 31:00.400
Girl, off-low, busy world

31:00.400 --> 31:02.400
When the beat goes, what's the attitude?

31:02.400 --> 31:06.400
Hey, hey, hey, look at my lay back

31:06.400 --> 31:08.400
It's not the end of our time

31:08.400 --> 31:10.400
That's not gonna be great

31:10.400 --> 31:12.400
I'm talking about the life I live in

31:12.400 --> 31:14.400
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

31:14.400 --> 31:16.400
It's time to watch it

31:16.400 --> 31:18.400
It's a noisy society

31:18.400 --> 31:20.400
The building is empty, the building is empty

31:20.400 --> 31:22.400
I hope you close it and close it

36:52.400 --> 36:54.400
I

37:22.400 --> 37:49.400
I told you, I was done with basic browsers.

37:49.400 --> 38:08.200
You're setup wants Opera GX and you're holding it back.

38:08.200 --> 38:11.360
Upgrade to the gaming browser.

38:11.360 --> 38:13.560
Download Opera GX.

38:13.560 --> 38:19.360
When I was a player, if I was to make a misplay, maybe it's my mouse, maybe it's my armrest,

38:19.360 --> 38:22.860
Something feels wrong. If you were at home, you wouldn't do that.

38:22.860 --> 38:27.860
The Infinite Position Armrest is part of the largest you collect on stage standard initiative

38:27.860 --> 38:31.860
aimed to bring your home or training room settings to the tournament stage.

38:31.860 --> 38:36.860
Not only that, but other players will also make the team stronger.

38:36.860 --> 38:40.860
The most comfortable and powerful play comes naturally.

39:19.360 --> 39:46.960
Tired of the off-season blues once Worlds is over?

39:46.960 --> 39:52.080
you're not, because League of Legends is coming to the very first eSports Nations Cup, where

39:52.080 --> 39:56.600
players split from their clubs and compete for national pride.

39:56.600 --> 39:59.680
Will China test every limit imaginable?

39:59.680 --> 40:03.080
Will South Korea turn every game into a macro masterclass?

40:03.080 --> 40:06.960
Will EU and NA actually play in the correct lengths?

40:06.960 --> 40:09.920
The final event of the year is not to be missed.

40:09.920 --> 40:12.520
eSports Nations Cup 2026.

40:12.520 --> 40:15.360
See you in Riyadh.

40:15.360 --> 40:18.120
This is my new phone company, Menace Mobile.

40:18.120 --> 40:20.800
Our pricing structure will be so confusing,

40:20.800 --> 40:23.320
it could already be described as evil.

40:23.320 --> 40:24.480
That isn't evil.

40:24.480 --> 40:26.520
It's just typical phone company stuff.

40:26.520 --> 40:28.440
Besides people who just switched to Verizon.

40:28.440 --> 40:29.880
With their new simplicity plan,

40:29.880 --> 40:32.040
there's just one plan and one price.

40:32.040 --> 40:32.880
What now?

40:32.880 --> 40:34.560
And it's only $30 for a single line.

40:34.560 --> 40:36.000
$30!

40:36.000 --> 40:38.160
So you're all choosing Verizon.

40:38.160 --> 40:39.280
Freezers!

40:39.280 --> 40:42.880
Introducing the simplicity plan, $30 for a single line.

40:42.880 --> 40:44.240
Can you hear me now?

40:44.240 --> 40:45.240
Hahahaha!

40:49.740 --> 40:52.240
Red Bull gives you wings.

40:52.740 --> 40:57.240
Times like this are where star players shine.

40:57.240 --> 41:01.740
And new legends step up where legacies are built.

41:01.740 --> 41:06.240
And dreams either realize or wilt apart.

41:06.740 --> 41:08.740
A tale doesn't die.

41:08.740 --> 41:12.240
We cannot set the break up and expect the win.

41:12.240 --> 41:14.240
Let's walk it back to normal!

41:14.240 --> 41:17.240
We've got the balls to be strong!

41:17.240 --> 41:19.240
We're doing so much work in dancing!

41:19.240 --> 41:21.240
We're just going to eat them!

41:22.240 --> 41:27.240
In Esports, legendary moments demand speed, scale, and soul.

41:27.240 --> 41:30.240
Players and fans bring to heart.

41:30.240 --> 41:32.240
Technology brings it to life.

41:32.240 --> 41:36.240
Every frame, every stat, every decisive play.

41:36.240 --> 41:39.240
In partnership with League of Legends Esports,

41:39.240 --> 41:45.240
We're driving digital innovation that empowers the eSports ecosystem to keep expanding.

41:45.240 --> 41:50.240
So players can focus on the game, and fans can focus on the moment.

45:39.240 --> 45:45.920
I'm here at the desk with three overjoyed LCS colleagues here. You need probably

45:52.320 --> 45:54.320
It's okay

45:56.520 --> 46:03.360
No, join us you're all welcome to all of branches here just take it join lion everybody's welcome

46:03.360 --> 46:06.960
It's true led by a European anyway like you'll feel right at home

46:06.960 --> 46:13.200
but what happened yesterday I mean inspired destroy G2 yeah yeah and

46:13.200 --> 46:18.360
really wanted to he really wanted to destroy I mean the trash talking

46:18.360 --> 46:23.000
afterwards was you could tell they had been brewing for a while okay well let's

46:23.000 --> 46:26.880
take a look just how personally took everything

46:27.560 --> 46:33.280
I think it's pretty obvious that I think sending you to home feels way better

46:33.280 --> 46:39.280
Honestly, I wasn't surprised by anything. I expected them to kind of do nothing in the games and they were doing nothing.

46:39.280 --> 46:41.280
So it was pretty easy.

46:41.280 --> 46:47.280
For me, it wasn't a debate for a long time. I think I'm the best since a few years already.

46:47.280 --> 46:50.280
But there was a lot of people thinking there is a competition.

46:50.280 --> 46:55.280
So yeah, I'm happy that I showed today that the competition is far away.

46:56.280 --> 46:57.280
Hello!

46:59.280 --> 47:02.280
Yo, wait with me, guys! Hello! Why so quiet?

47:03.280 --> 47:10.280
Actually, I run into the photographer, one of the photographers of the event, and they

47:10.280 --> 47:11.280
said, what's going on?

47:11.280 --> 47:12.280
Inspired today.

47:12.280 --> 47:15.280
He keeps doing the such like he wants me to take a picture of it, but it's like the

47:15.280 --> 47:16.280
wide shot.

47:16.280 --> 47:18.280
He's not even in it, but he keeps doing it.

47:18.280 --> 47:19.280
What is up?

47:19.280 --> 47:20.280
So explain it to me.

47:20.280 --> 47:21.280
What is up with that?

47:21.280 --> 47:22.280
It's so personal.

47:22.280 --> 47:23.680
He talked about wanting to play with Caps.

47:23.680 --> 47:26.040
G2 didn't want him, and now he wants to end G2.

47:26.040 --> 47:27.040
That's just what it is.

47:27.040 --> 47:28.040
But he holds these tweets.

47:28.040 --> 47:29.040
He kept that for years.

47:29.040 --> 47:30.040
He had that.

47:30.040 --> 47:33.240
He had another one when G2 trash talked him after being eliminated from Worlds, that

47:33.240 --> 47:34.520
He then retweeted again.

47:34.520 --> 47:36.680
So he was holding these grudges in the chamber

47:36.680 --> 47:37.960
from a year ago.

47:37.960 --> 47:40.280
I mean, he should know what, that was very personal one.

47:40.280 --> 47:42.880
They photoshopped a DM of Inspired saying,

47:42.880 --> 47:45.840
can I join you, do you need a jungler?

47:45.840 --> 47:47.440
And so he had it ready to go.

47:47.440 --> 47:49.880
I mean, I will say, by the way, yes,

47:49.880 --> 47:52.360
but like waving and stuff is a little extra for Inspired.

47:52.360 --> 47:54.000
But the interview was completely normal.

47:54.000 --> 47:57.080
He literally gives that interview all the time at NA.

47:57.080 --> 47:59.480
He trashed up exactly like that.

47:59.480 --> 48:00.640
I guess some people are like,

48:00.640 --> 48:01.960
when he's asked the question,

48:01.960 --> 48:04.360
or do you like it more that you knocked out G2

48:04.360 --> 48:06.680
or that you made NA winners like knocking out G2?

48:06.680 --> 48:09.240
And I'm like, where are your priorities?

48:09.240 --> 48:11.440
I mean, in the right place, I guess.

48:11.440 --> 48:14.280
I'm OK with it knocking out G2, because we will still

48:14.280 --> 48:16.440
take the region third place.

48:16.440 --> 48:17.360
We're going to actually.

48:17.360 --> 48:18.720
Top three and maybe more.

48:18.720 --> 48:19.160
Yeah, exactly.

48:19.160 --> 48:20.040
Maybe more.

48:20.040 --> 48:25.280
And maybe more, would you say that the stars are aligning?

48:25.280 --> 48:26.440
Chocks, what are you doing?

48:26.440 --> 48:28.480
No, what are you doing right now?

48:28.480 --> 48:30.240
We know you're a cursed magma.

48:30.240 --> 48:32.240
All the graphic are the stars are

48:33.440 --> 48:35.440
What is this?

48:35.840 --> 48:41.000
You're trying to stand out an easy route or something. No, where's the HLE stars aligning graphic?

48:41.000 --> 48:44.160
They didn't even have to play fury. They lost to the same team. They beat the same teams

48:44.160 --> 48:47.680
The stars are like it's just that they've beaten all these great opponents. Sure

48:49.320 --> 48:56.280
Okay, okay, that was very Canadian of you. I love it. Anyway, you can talk all the shit you want basically

48:56.280 --> 48:58.680
We own it. We own it. That's how it is.

48:58.680 --> 49:01.280
We six-ohed. You're gonna find Europe for that, actually.

49:01.280 --> 49:02.280
Yeah.

49:02.280 --> 49:05.280
And they can say that. You can't say that.

49:05.280 --> 49:11.280
By the way, Lion beat them so hard, they kicked their coach. Can you believe that?

49:11.280 --> 49:13.280
This is crazy.

49:13.280 --> 49:22.280
It's such weird wording. They said he's gonna be benched and that they will make an official announcement when he leaves.

49:22.280 --> 49:22.780
Yeah.

49:22.780 --> 49:28.080
It feels very sudden, like they have fired him or he quit.

49:28.080 --> 49:29.280
But we don't actually know for sure.

49:29.280 --> 49:31.280
This is actually insane news.

49:31.280 --> 49:32.280
Yeah.

49:32.280 --> 49:33.780
This was, and I was thinking like, OK,

49:33.780 --> 49:36.080
is this something they were planning before and then just

49:36.080 --> 49:38.280
decided to announce after?

49:38.280 --> 49:39.280
Outfall?

49:39.280 --> 49:40.280
Or is it?

49:40.280 --> 49:41.280
So short after?

49:41.280 --> 49:42.720
Yeah, it sets such a short reaction.

49:42.720 --> 49:46.360
Because they put in there, we are going to make a video when

49:46.360 --> 49:48.360
it's final that he is released.

49:48.360 --> 49:51.120
That makes it sound like we did not want to leave.

49:51.120 --> 49:55.640
And it also doesn't seem like it was prepped or they already would have made a video or something

49:55.640 --> 49:58.640
I think it's the timing that makes it suspect, right? That's the thing

49:58.640 --> 50:01.640
Two days after beating G1, one day after beating T'Long

50:01.640 --> 50:04.640
We're too strong as North American defeated T'Long to handle

50:04.640 --> 50:07.640
How did this happen to Jocla before?

50:07.640 --> 50:12.640
I feel like he energy eliminated someone or maybe

50:12.640 --> 50:15.640
I feel like he has eliminated the coaches

50:15.640 --> 50:18.640
The next year did they play with Sunday, I feel like, or something like that

50:18.640 --> 50:20.640
Don't get kicked, we talk about it later

50:20.640 --> 50:24.080
In any case, not today, in the near future.

50:24.080 --> 50:28.680
Tomorrow we also have an absolutely amazing, amazing show match.

50:28.680 --> 50:29.680
Oh, this is cool.

50:29.680 --> 50:31.680
The league classic show match.

50:31.680 --> 50:36.760
Yes, everyone who's been watching for 15 years is going to have the best time.

50:36.760 --> 50:41.600
I can't believe we're going to have a Doublelift and Weisschau bot lane.

50:41.600 --> 50:47.800
These two helped literally pioneer what AD Carry is today, and they're going to be

50:47.800 --> 50:53.080
playing in the bot lane together. Weishaw taking the support role after his time returning

50:53.080 --> 50:56.640
to the AD carry role in the old man cup over in China.

50:56.640 --> 51:02.640
I want to take bets now. Do you think Captain Jack can still do a Captain Jack? The cleanse,

51:02.640 --> 51:05.240
the mechanics still there, is the timing still there?

51:05.240 --> 51:06.640
Ooh, I think you can.

51:06.640 --> 51:08.800
Can Captain Jack still do a Captain Jack?

51:08.800 --> 51:12.640
I'll raise you on, can Yellow Star still do the Yellow Star?

51:12.640 --> 51:14.640
No! Stop!

51:14.640 --> 51:16.640
Oh my God!

51:16.640 --> 51:18.640
Yeah, I did too. I did too.

51:18.640 --> 51:20.640
Hey, it's not just old players that are back here

51:20.640 --> 51:22.640
getting some talent out of the basement.

51:22.640 --> 51:24.640
Wow!

51:24.640 --> 51:26.640
Check this out!

51:26.640 --> 51:28.640
You guys look like yours!

51:28.640 --> 51:30.640
All right, what years were each of these photos?

51:30.640 --> 51:34.640
Mine would have been 2011, Kobe.

51:34.640 --> 51:36.640
Yeah, yours is not even from a show.

51:36.640 --> 51:38.640
Yours is from player days.

51:38.640 --> 51:40.640
Kobe, are you being held hostage in this picture?

51:40.640 --> 51:41.640
What is going on?

51:41.640 --> 51:45.900
That's 2013, yes, we just lose a game or something. What happened?

51:45.900 --> 51:50.700
Shox is 2013 surely. I think I think Freak is like that's gonna be like 2010

51:53.400 --> 51:55.400
Yeah, that's what he's doing this

51:57.400 --> 51:59.640
He's about to do this that's the oldest

52:01.000 --> 52:03.000
Yeah, I was gonna he's wearing his

52:03.000 --> 52:06.780
Jacket that's the fish yo's favorite picture of himself. Yeah

52:11.640 --> 52:14.720
Oh my gosh, I can't, this is gonna be so fun tomorrow.

52:14.720 --> 52:15.560
It's gonna be so cool.

52:15.560 --> 52:16.400
Oh, I can't wait.

52:16.400 --> 52:19.840
But hey, not too late because we have an amazing match ahead of us today.

52:19.840 --> 52:24.000
Let's take a look at the bracket because we're all euphoric, no pun intended,

52:24.000 --> 52:26.360
about Lyon making it yesterday.

52:26.360 --> 52:30.200
But for HLE, Jack, there is so much pressure.

52:30.200 --> 52:31.920
So let me explain here.

52:31.920 --> 52:33.560
Remember what happened at first end?

52:33.560 --> 52:35.160
Korea wasn't in the finals.

52:35.160 --> 52:38.320
Remember what happened earlier when T1 lost to G2?

52:38.320 --> 52:44.440
HLE is the sole representative of Korea who don't want to be locked out of back-to-back international finals and crucially

52:44.720 --> 52:50.160
The top two the two regions that get to the grand finals get an extra world's

52:51.360 --> 52:57.640
So HLE loses do they not only not win they cost the LCK their fourth world slot

52:57.640 --> 53:03.640
So that would mean if T1 finishes fourth and HLE has lost this game. They don't get to go to worlds anymore

53:03.640 --> 53:11.640
3RX finished fourth. They don't get to go to Worlds. You know who would get to go to Worlds? If you retroactively go back, see that baby.

53:11.640 --> 53:13.640
So let's go Lion. Let's go.

53:13.640 --> 53:16.640
If we win, half our whole league is gone.

53:16.640 --> 53:18.640
Half of our league! Let's go!

53:18.640 --> 53:19.640
Come on!

53:19.640 --> 53:21.640
I shouldn't use that word!

53:23.640 --> 53:26.640
That's crazy. I can't imagine half of that would be out there.

53:26.640 --> 53:27.640
It's a party.

53:27.640 --> 53:28.640
We'll see.

53:28.640 --> 53:31.640
Anyway, about this matchup, when we talk about the pressure,

53:31.640 --> 53:33.800
there's also, of course, a lot of pressure on the man in the middle.

53:33.800 --> 53:37.160
He did not necessarily have the best performance against BLG.

53:37.160 --> 53:38.480
Emily, talk to me about Zeca.

53:38.480 --> 53:42.960
Yeah, so we're going to do the first Draw My Life of this year,

53:42.960 --> 53:47.080
talking about Zeca and how important of a member he is in.

53:47.080 --> 53:52.240
Draw My LCK and LPL Life, Zeca.

53:52.240 --> 53:58.400
Kim Zeca Konwoof began his pro career as a midlaner for KT Academy in 2019.

53:58.400 --> 54:04.240
While on Vici Gaming, Koma kind of plucked him from KT Academy, and then BLG in the 2022

54:04.240 --> 54:08.400
and 2021 seasons respectively, Zeka and his teams unfortunately did not finish higher

54:08.400 --> 54:10.360
than sixth place.

54:10.360 --> 54:14.880
Early on in his career during this time, Zeka was really criticized for his performances

54:14.880 --> 54:21.160
and limited champion pool of melee champions specifically like Akali, Yone, and Silas.

54:21.160 --> 54:25.120
Returning to the LCK in 2022, you guys all know what happened.

54:25.120 --> 54:31.200
unexpectedly qualified for Worlds and then upset T1 in the finals to win a

54:31.200 --> 54:37.480
world championship. Zeca has been given the nicknames of Super Soldier by the

54:37.480 --> 54:42.220
Korean fan community and Game 5 Devil due to his propensity to always win the

54:42.220 --> 54:45.720
fifth game in the best of five. So if it goes to fifth games Zeca has a high

54:45.720 --> 54:50.480
chance of winning it. He's also been known for hitting the gym and his workout

54:50.480 --> 54:56.320
teams actually started in 2022 on DRX with his teammate and friend Kingen. That's why

54:56.320 --> 55:02.560
you see the little muscle HLE emote there. While he initially was criticized for only

55:02.560 --> 55:07.040
being able to play melee carries, Zeca is now one of the best mid-leaders in the world

55:07.040 --> 55:11.840
with a very well-rounded champion pool and it's made such a huge difference from his

55:11.840 --> 55:16.320
time on DRX to now how reliable he has become.

55:16.320 --> 55:20.200
One of the craziest arcs in League of Legends pro-player, I have to say.

55:20.200 --> 55:23.440
I like to, there was an interview and they asked him, like, are you trying to intimidate

55:23.440 --> 55:24.940
people physically when you're on stage?

55:24.940 --> 55:27.560
He was like, it's nothing to do with that, it's just about hell.

55:27.560 --> 55:29.360
He wants to intimidate people in the game.

55:29.360 --> 55:30.360
True.

55:30.360 --> 55:34.080
And Emily now, if he loses, he would stop the future Zeka from winning Worlds, because

55:34.080 --> 55:38.560
he won as a fourth seed from the LCK, so he could cost his region that opportunity to

55:38.560 --> 55:39.560
recreate himself.

55:39.560 --> 55:41.760
Either way, that's not a very probable outcome.

55:41.760 --> 55:42.760
Whoa!

55:42.760 --> 55:44.760
We are dog.

55:44.760 --> 55:48.200
But also for people who don't know, Emily does all the drawing for that, which is always incredible.

55:48.200 --> 55:49.200
It's one of my favorite parts of drawing.

55:49.200 --> 55:51.920
Spreadsheet and drawing, still only a Guild Wars World Championship.

55:51.920 --> 55:55.760
Why are you trying to pair us against each other?

55:55.760 --> 55:56.760
That's a good game.

55:56.760 --> 55:57.760
That's a very good game.

55:57.760 --> 56:00.880
But hey, we gotta talk about the Elfin in the room, because that guy did not play well

56:00.880 --> 56:01.880
versus G.L.G.

56:01.880 --> 56:04.920
Absolutely, because he's so core for HLE's success.

56:04.920 --> 56:10.120
They love to play a really powerful mid-top side of the game with lots of support roams,

56:10.120 --> 56:14.860
B.L.G. kind of beat them at that game to knock them down here into the lower final.

56:15.260 --> 56:19.540
He was laying against the best current player in the world in night,

56:19.700 --> 56:24.500
but that still could be a confidence hit as we move forward in this MSI.

56:24.580 --> 56:29.380
Yeah. And the big difference to me was shown and on working together in tandem.

56:29.380 --> 56:33.080
As you see these highlights, they're always at at least one of them,

56:33.080 --> 56:35.720
if not both of them is always at the scene of the crime, right?

56:35.720 --> 56:39.720
And this was the huge difference maker in addition to the fact

56:39.720 --> 56:41.720
that Zeca was going up against Knight directly.

56:41.720 --> 56:44.560
Yeah, I literally think On had a perfect Shen game.

56:44.560 --> 56:47.520
That was actually perfect support play.

56:47.520 --> 56:50.440
He defended every enemy jungle invade.

56:50.440 --> 56:54.160
He constantly was going with Shun on these offensive plays,

56:54.160 --> 56:57.960
and he layered his CC perfectly with his teammates.

56:57.960 --> 57:01.160
On is actually in crazy form right now.

57:01.160 --> 57:02.000
It was beautiful.

57:02.000 --> 57:04.400
This isn't a BLG segment though, Colby.

57:04.400 --> 57:05.240
So what is HLE?

57:05.240 --> 57:06.080
Is it not?

57:06.080 --> 57:07.600
No.

57:07.600 --> 57:11.180
Yeah, HLE, they really do kind of have to catch up to that.

57:11.180 --> 57:13.340
I mean, their jungle and support synergy,

57:13.340 --> 57:14.980
they do need to level it up.

57:14.980 --> 57:17.020
So they continue with that style that they did

57:17.020 --> 57:18.380
find their winning ways with.

57:18.380 --> 57:20.440
All the LCK, you know, casters and analysts

57:20.440 --> 57:21.320
are always talking about, all right,

57:21.320 --> 57:24.300
HLE looks so much better when everybody was on board

57:24.300 --> 57:26.060
with Kenavi and all of their plays

57:26.060 --> 57:27.940
were looking smooth with those invades.

57:27.940 --> 57:30.740
So once that plan, you know, actually is in accordance,

57:30.740 --> 57:31.940
then it looks a lot cleaner.

57:31.940 --> 57:32.780
It's true.

57:32.780 --> 57:34.580
It also has big implications for the match today

57:34.580 --> 57:37.580
because we've characterized Lyon as a bit of a slower

57:37.580 --> 57:43.820
team sits back then, then strikes right at their prey when HLE has been more aggressive

57:43.820 --> 57:44.820
from that early game.

57:44.820 --> 57:47.380
We know how inspired likes to run the game.

57:47.380 --> 57:51.540
He likes to take high percentage fights and he likes to decrease the variance and it's

57:51.540 --> 57:54.460
worked incredibly well when they are confident.

57:54.460 --> 58:00.140
He's also said if his lanes are on fire, he's going to try and flip the game and just that

58:00.140 --> 58:02.540
statement means you have a pretty low chance of winning.

58:02.540 --> 58:06.100
So we'll see how that ends up playing out in this series Emily.

58:06.100 --> 58:24.100
Yeah, Lyon's willingness to seed objectives definitely comes from Inspired, but yesterday the thing that was most impressive is how he adjusted his gameplay due to draft and his lane state got involved a lot earlier, especially in games 2 and 3, and also increased their Drake stacking in game 1 really early.

58:24.100 --> 58:34.100
Yeah, the critical thing that we always bring up for Inspired, everybody's talking about his shot calling, but he lays out such a clear plan not only for the entire game, how they're supposed to find their wincon,

58:34.100 --> 58:39.760
But then also individual fights and what people should be looking out for, which makes it easier for everyone to play.

58:40.020 --> 58:45.020
I do wonder how their adrenaline is gonna recover from yesterday.

58:45.020 --> 58:49.820
Just because when Dokla's talking about like, inspired was basically more locked in than ever.

58:49.820 --> 58:50.320
Yeah.

58:50.320 --> 58:53.960
Yesterday to be like, yeah, he can't be like, oh, job's done now that I got revenge on G2.

58:53.960 --> 58:55.160
We don't want that happening.

58:55.160 --> 58:57.260
They've got two more series to play, right?

58:57.260 --> 58:59.140
They literally have to turn around in 24 hours.

58:59.140 --> 59:02.860
And when you have such a massive high moment, it's really difficult to like,

59:02.860 --> 59:08.860
come down from that moment and then re-elevate so gotta watch to see like what his energy level is.

59:08.860 --> 59:12.860
I see it from the other side. I see that the momentum can be continued after today personally.

59:12.860 --> 59:18.860
I'll be the co-fer for you guys. But let's talk about maybe some of the laners that it'll have to help or not because turns out

59:18.860 --> 59:24.860
my top father has a top father. So is Dokla. Wow. What a shellacking.

59:24.860 --> 59:31.860
Yesterday he dealt a broken blade. Dokla was magnificent and it's not like oh we're going to pick him when he matchups and play around him.

59:31.860 --> 59:36.660
around him. It was actually the opposite in a lot of cases. And then here you see he still

59:36.660 --> 59:42.980
had such big impact in these fights and playing to what the team needed to accomplish while

59:42.980 --> 59:47.940
not giving up too much on the sidelines. And then when it did play to him, this after a

59:47.940 --> 59:52.980
really good TP bait that he had by the way, with the end of the the Megan are and inspired

59:52.980 --> 59:57.140
is there and coordinated. And then he gets solo kills and every time, you know, he's

59:57.140 --> 59:59.220
He's performing so well in this series.

59:59.220 --> 01:00:02.260
He truly is getting bigger and bigger on stage.

01:00:02.260 --> 01:00:04.180
Everyone says he's a bright lights merchants

01:00:04.180 --> 01:00:06.780
where we're cranking up the lights to maximum now.

01:00:06.780 --> 01:00:10.900
Yeah, he, like the way they played around his Narbar

01:00:10.900 --> 01:00:14.980
usage in particular in that game was so, so stellar.

01:00:14.980 --> 01:00:16.700
And he said to himself, he's like, look,

01:00:16.700 --> 01:00:18.620
teams keep passing on me.

01:00:18.620 --> 01:00:20.340
I'm still here and I'm doing great.

01:00:20.340 --> 01:00:22.700
It's crazy how many off seasons we go

01:00:22.700 --> 01:00:24.300
and Douglas is not even on a team.

01:00:24.300 --> 01:00:25.500
It's actually so frustrating.

01:00:25.500 --> 01:00:28.820
Like oh, I guess we'll pick him up and he performs for the people that don't know

01:00:28.820 --> 01:00:32.380
He literally did not have a team going into this year until

01:00:32.700 --> 01:00:36.620
Zemudo's visa for Lyon was denied and then even after being on Lyon

01:00:37.140 --> 01:00:44.340
Literally this split they signed another top laner. Yep to say Doka. You better start improving or we're gonna kick you

01:00:44.340 --> 01:00:48.220
Yeah, meanwhile. He's won an energy. He's gone worlds quarter finals. He's on this team was a hundred things last year

01:00:48.220 --> 01:00:53.300
He shows up when it matters and he's an adept vlogger. Let's take a look at today's entry

01:00:55.500 --> 01:01:04.500
Annyeonghaseyo. Yogi dokoimnida. The toxicity is exactly how I thought it'd be yesterday.

01:01:04.500 --> 01:01:10.500
And honestly, the most toxic person was the person who sings my lest. So that's funny.

01:01:10.500 --> 01:01:23.500
Anyways, good win for NA. I still don't know what a kilometer is, but what I do know is that when I was walking last night from the arena,

01:01:23.500 --> 01:01:31.980
from a restaurant. I saw like nine ten like ten banners of Zeus on the street and they're not even

01:01:31.980 --> 01:01:38.620
like fauna life banners they're just Zeus banners like looks like they've been made by cans and

01:01:38.620 --> 01:01:50.300
they're just on the street lights so um yeah it's uh yeah anyways let's have a good series today

01:01:50.300 --> 01:01:54.440
and make that impossible seem possible.

01:01:54.440 --> 01:01:55.280
Dokes out.

01:01:56.420 --> 01:01:57.780
We got you Dokes.

01:01:57.780 --> 01:01:59.820
I mean he's got real fans right here.

01:01:59.820 --> 01:02:01.140
We got the banners.

01:02:01.140 --> 01:02:02.480
Big Dokes.

01:02:02.480 --> 01:02:03.480
I'll go put him up outside.

01:02:03.480 --> 01:02:04.320
Yeah, okay, yeah.

01:02:04.320 --> 01:02:05.160
Right after this.

01:02:05.160 --> 01:02:05.980
Make some copies.

01:02:05.980 --> 01:02:06.820
You saw that drawing by the way, buddy.

01:02:06.820 --> 01:02:07.900
You saw that yourself, Kobe.

01:02:07.900 --> 01:02:08.820
I definitely did.

01:02:08.820 --> 01:02:11.420
It definitely was not Emily who drew this.

01:02:11.420 --> 01:02:12.980
Print those, put them up in Los Angeles

01:02:12.980 --> 01:02:15.500
when it comes home as an MSI champion.

01:02:15.500 --> 01:02:16.340
Right.

01:02:16.340 --> 01:02:17.180
Kobe, we'll see.

01:02:17.180 --> 01:02:18.020
Uli beats Zaves.

01:02:18.020 --> 01:02:19.540
I mean these are the domestic cats though.

01:02:19.540 --> 01:02:23.220
Yeah, yeah, this is gonna be a tough one.

01:02:23.220 --> 01:02:26.380
They have met before as Joklah himself

01:02:26.380 --> 01:02:27.900
talked about yesterday.

01:02:27.900 --> 01:02:29.660
He went 0-4-1.

01:02:29.660 --> 01:02:32.180
It was not a good time for this.

01:02:32.180 --> 01:02:33.620
Ancient history, Emily.

01:02:33.620 --> 01:02:35.180
They're big jokes in the top lane.

01:02:35.180 --> 01:02:36.100
Ancient history.

01:02:36.100 --> 01:02:37.740
And yesterday when he was on desk,

01:02:37.740 --> 01:02:38.820
he basically did say like,

01:02:38.820 --> 01:02:41.980
look, their solo laners are so, so strong.

01:02:41.980 --> 01:02:44.500
We just need to survive until the mid game.

01:02:44.500 --> 01:02:48.820
Like he was very cognizant of how ridiculous

01:02:48.820 --> 01:02:53.020
this HLE topside is with Zaeus, Kanavi, and Zeca.

01:02:53.020 --> 01:02:55.100
Yeah, he's very respectful and he's realistic

01:02:55.100 --> 01:02:56.820
and he knows what his job is, okay?

01:02:56.820 --> 01:03:00.780
He's not gonna try and ego battle 1v1 Zaeus

01:03:00.780 --> 01:03:01.900
and fight him to the death.

01:03:01.900 --> 01:03:02.740
No?

01:03:02.740 --> 01:03:04.420
No, maybe if he has inspired right behind him

01:03:04.420 --> 01:03:05.420
and it's perfect timing.

01:03:05.420 --> 01:03:06.260
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.

01:03:06.260 --> 01:03:07.500
Does anybody try and paint again?

01:03:07.500 --> 01:03:08.340
Yeah.

01:03:08.340 --> 01:03:10.220
But I like the self-awareness, you know?

01:03:10.220 --> 01:03:11.780
This team is not all ego.

01:03:11.780 --> 01:03:13.300
They're a lot of banter,

01:03:13.300 --> 01:03:15.820
but they also have very realistic expectations.

01:03:15.820 --> 01:03:17.820
Exactly, he said the ego's just the one next to me

01:03:17.820 --> 01:03:20.580
No one else here, not that bad.

01:03:20.580 --> 01:03:24.620
Hey, but if we look at it kind of player for player value, Emily, Zayas, right?

01:03:24.620 --> 01:03:28.660
One of the most hyped top laners in the world in every facet of the game.

01:03:28.660 --> 01:03:32.420
Maybe didn't able, wasn't able to show exactly what he wanted versus BLG,

01:03:32.420 --> 01:03:33.860
but he has something to rectify here.

01:03:33.860 --> 01:03:36.860
Yeah, and I mean, this is when we talk about the strength of Asia League.

01:03:36.860 --> 01:03:38.340
It is this top side.

01:03:38.340 --> 01:03:40.180
Dayus is so, so good.

01:03:40.180 --> 01:03:42.740
He has such a broad champion pool.

01:03:42.740 --> 01:03:47.380
He's so reliably, consistently great, especially in lane,

01:03:47.380 --> 01:03:52.140
Which I think is why Doku is looking at him being like I just have to survive because he just

01:03:52.820 --> 01:03:58.660
Any mistake he will punish you for immediately. Yeah multi-time world champion

01:03:59.580 --> 01:04:00.700
probably

01:04:00.700 --> 01:04:02.700
A jace that line is

01:04:05.620 --> 01:04:07.540
Yeah, just gonna hamper them and draft as well

01:04:07.540 --> 01:04:08.940
I feel like line straps been really well

01:04:08.940 --> 01:04:12.940
But it's just when you're up against that caliber of player your options get really limited

01:04:12.940 --> 01:04:16.400
They get limited, but as you said, a lot of humility from the side of Lyon.

01:04:16.400 --> 01:04:19.040
That's why Berserker said, I'm just as good as Gulmach.

01:04:19.040 --> 01:04:22.140
So, okay, this is so cute, man.

01:04:22.140 --> 01:04:25.840
I mean, Berserker, he started his career on T1 Academy.

01:04:25.840 --> 01:04:29.960
Yep. Let's bring up the pictures because the memories are going to hit you so hard.

01:04:30.300 --> 01:04:33.400
Look at that. Yeah. And Delight is there too, right?

01:04:33.400 --> 01:04:37.040
HLE support at that time, I believe he was called Crescent.

01:04:37.740 --> 01:04:42.640
And then he, yeah, he played with owner and Delight.

01:04:42.640 --> 01:04:44.640
And there's Berserker into light again.

01:04:44.640 --> 01:04:47.140
Basically what happened is Guma kind of stepped up

01:04:47.140 --> 01:04:52.240
as T1 starting AD Carry during this kind of 10 man roster shuffle,

01:04:52.240 --> 01:04:54.640
ended up winning that spot.

01:04:54.640 --> 01:04:59.240
Meanwhile, Berserker came over to NA and became C9 starting AD Carry.

01:04:59.240 --> 01:05:01.540
And I feel like Berserker has always had so much potential

01:05:01.540 --> 01:05:03.140
and has delivered on that potential

01:05:03.140 --> 01:05:04.840
when he's been playing in North America.

01:05:04.840 --> 01:05:08.640
But I feel like when he's gone up against top AD carries in the world,

01:05:08.640 --> 01:05:10.640
he has lost confidence in himself.

01:05:10.640 --> 01:05:14.180
and I feel like his confidence is such a core part of what makes him great,

01:05:14.180 --> 01:05:19.280
which is what makes it even more interesting that I feel like he actually has confidence today against Guma,

01:05:19.280 --> 01:05:22.380
which gives me more hope than previous Preserver.

01:05:22.380 --> 01:05:24.980
Absolutely very happy that he thinks he's as good as Guma.

01:05:24.980 --> 01:05:28.480
Yes, and of course I wanted to ask him specifically about his history with Guma,

01:05:28.480 --> 01:05:30.580
and I did so in the Verizon Game Day interview.

01:05:32.320 --> 01:05:36.220
A win is a win and a very, very confidence win, I think, for Lyon.

01:05:36.220 --> 01:05:40.320
Now you're going up against HLE, and there is, of course, history there with you and Guma.

01:05:40.320 --> 01:05:47.320
Ayushi, from T1, can you tell me what it is like going into this important matchup versus Guma and versus HLE?

01:05:49.320 --> 01:06:00.320
I mean, yeah, I mean, there are some stories. Especially in 2021 when I was in T1 academy and then he was like T1

01:06:00.320 --> 01:06:02.320
And then T1 was like not...

01:06:04.720 --> 01:06:08.320
Didn't play well at the time and I was also like didn't play well

01:06:08.320 --> 01:06:14.400
And then like and we met though like in the restaurant T1 restaurant and then we were just talking about

01:06:14.960 --> 01:06:21.080
Life is so hard and then like it's just that kind of thing and then now I'm just like facing him in like MSI

01:06:21.360 --> 01:06:26.440
Like top three. So yeah, I mean I'm really happy about that and then

01:06:26.440 --> 01:06:36.440
And yeah, I mean, I always like lost for him, especially when I met him in the international league, so yeah, I mean, I hope I can revenge.

01:06:38.440 --> 01:06:39.440
Look at them now.

01:06:39.440 --> 01:06:40.440
I know.

01:06:40.440 --> 01:06:41.440
I love this idea of them.

01:06:41.440 --> 01:06:42.440
Life is hard, Emily.

01:06:42.440 --> 01:06:43.440
Life is hard, but we go on.

01:06:43.440 --> 01:06:44.440
Well, look at us now!

01:06:44.440 --> 01:06:45.440
Yeah!

01:06:45.440 --> 01:06:47.440
The huge arena and they get to play against each other.

01:06:47.440 --> 01:06:49.440
They're an enemy territory, I gotta say.

01:06:49.440 --> 01:06:50.440
Yeah!

01:06:50.440 --> 01:06:51.440
I see a lot of intelligence.

01:06:51.440 --> 01:06:52.440
Loads.

01:06:52.440 --> 01:06:53.440
Yeah, but are they actually...

01:06:53.440 --> 01:06:54.440
Yeah.

01:06:54.440 --> 01:06:55.440
Even versus G2.

01:06:55.440 --> 01:06:59.180
already do so at least they're a little used to being in enemy territory they're

01:06:59.180 --> 01:07:03.080
used to it but hey do we actually think we're going to see who my chamber

01:07:03.080 --> 01:07:08.200
zerkified in the bot lane well that's the thing I feel like if line is going

01:07:08.200 --> 01:07:12.520
to win berserker and isles are gonna have to get meaningful push in the bot

01:07:12.520 --> 01:07:17.240
lane because what's happened a lot for HLE is delight just leaves yeah Guma is

01:07:17.240 --> 01:07:21.880
able to hold his own in 1v2's and allows them to play through the top side so

01:07:21.880 --> 01:07:24.880
So, when they do that, I think

01:07:24.980 --> 01:07:28.380
Lion needs to be ready to really push the pressure ball in.

01:07:28.480 --> 01:07:31.180
Yeah, I think the way that both of these teams play

01:07:31.280 --> 01:07:33.380
through their AD carries is so, so different.

01:07:33.480 --> 01:07:37.880
Berserker is so often a win condition for Lion,

01:07:37.980 --> 01:07:39.280
and that's where I'm really looking.

01:07:39.380 --> 01:07:43.480
Like, Iles, obviously, his step up from his previous performance

01:07:43.580 --> 01:07:45.980
at this tournament was massive yesterday,

01:07:46.080 --> 01:07:47.480
especially the Barg game.

01:07:47.580 --> 01:07:49.980
I'm also looking at Delight because he,

01:07:49.980 --> 01:07:53.560
their road, they both did their time on lower teams.

01:07:53.560 --> 01:07:55.440
But looking at these champion pools,

01:07:55.440 --> 01:07:58.880
you see the only shared mage between Berserker and Guma

01:07:58.880 --> 01:08:00.240
is that Ziggs.

01:08:00.240 --> 01:08:03.200
And then I did love the Tristana response

01:08:03.200 --> 01:08:05.680
and the Shen response from Berserker Isles.

01:08:05.680 --> 01:08:07.160
But the way they play is so different

01:08:07.160 --> 01:08:09.800
because HLE really relies on the fact

01:08:09.800 --> 01:08:11.960
that Guma is just so, so solid.

01:08:11.960 --> 01:08:14.360
And you can leave him on his own.

01:08:14.360 --> 01:08:16.560
Like Delight doesn't have to be with him.

01:08:16.560 --> 01:08:19.400
And he will make plays along with Kanavi

01:08:19.400 --> 01:08:21.500
on the top side of the map.

01:08:21.500 --> 01:08:24.220
And the only team that we've seen here

01:08:24.220 --> 01:08:26.140
who's been able to shut that down

01:08:26.140 --> 01:08:28.060
was Shunan On and BLG.

01:08:28.060 --> 01:08:30.140
Yeah, and it was by leaving with him.

01:08:30.140 --> 01:08:31.780
It wasn't by punishing them in the bot lane.

01:08:31.780 --> 01:08:34.300
So what I feel like Lying needs to do

01:08:34.300 --> 01:08:37.420
isn't necessarily something that any team has been able to do.

01:08:37.420 --> 01:08:39.740
I feel like it's a sleeping dragon though in the bot lane.

01:08:39.740 --> 01:08:43.900
For Guma, you just know when he has to step up.

01:08:43.900 --> 01:08:45.340
They always have it in their back pocket

01:08:45.340 --> 01:08:46.460
and it scares me a little.

01:08:46.460 --> 01:08:48.940
Yeah, I would have been a little bit more confident

01:08:48.940 --> 01:08:52.180
Rezuka was like, I'm as good as Viper or Paze,

01:08:52.180 --> 01:08:54.220
because Viper was kind of silent on Guma,

01:08:54.220 --> 01:08:56.980
even in all the games that they played too,

01:08:56.980 --> 01:09:00.140
so we'll see if he can actually get to that level.

01:09:00.140 --> 01:09:00.980
Yes, definitely.

01:09:00.980 --> 01:09:03.340
So we talked a lot about Inspired already,

01:09:03.340 --> 01:09:05.260
and I just think we have to take a little bit more time

01:09:05.260 --> 01:09:06.740
to talk about the jungle matchup,

01:09:06.740 --> 01:09:07.980
and Laura caught up with Kanavi

01:09:07.980 --> 01:09:09.700
in our Horizon Game Bay interview.

01:09:12.220 --> 01:09:15.300
Kanavi, thank you so much for joining me ahead of your game.

01:09:15.300 --> 01:09:18.020
What do you think of Lyon, the way they made it so far,

01:09:18.020 --> 01:09:20.160
and what makes the team stand out maybe?

01:09:21.660 --> 01:09:24.380
Lion is the number one seed from their own region

01:09:24.380 --> 01:09:26.180
so their landing phase is really solid

01:09:26.180 --> 01:09:28.540
and their teamwork with their junglers on point.

01:09:28.540 --> 01:09:30.620
Anything more you can tell me about Inspired

01:09:30.620 --> 01:09:34.220
because in the West he is regarded as one of the best junglers

01:09:34.220 --> 01:09:36.260
if not the best jungler that we have,

01:09:36.260 --> 01:09:37.900
what do you think about him as a player

01:09:37.900 --> 01:09:40.340
and what makes him strong for his team?

01:09:42.620 --> 01:09:45.020
I'm pretty sure Inspired doesn't matter

01:09:45.020 --> 01:09:46.620
which team he's in every year,

01:09:46.620 --> 01:09:48.340
He always finds huge success.

01:09:48.340 --> 01:09:52.060
I think it's because he has great mechanics and also great leadership.

01:09:53.940 --> 01:09:57.220
When it comes to facing off against a team like Lyon,

01:09:57.220 --> 01:10:01.700
who is going to be a mismatch with you guys being much stronger,

01:10:01.700 --> 01:10:05.220
is there anything that you feel like you have to be careful about?

01:10:05.220 --> 01:10:10.020
Do you think they're going to maybe surprise you more with champions or with plays on the map?

01:10:11.820 --> 01:10:16.500
The fact that Lyon made all the way up here means that it's not a mismatch.

01:10:16.500 --> 01:10:18.280
You know, they are also a very strong team.

01:10:18.280 --> 01:10:20.340
So I don't want to let our guards down

01:10:20.340 --> 01:10:24.840
and we will focus on kind of shutting down their key picks.

01:10:25.980 --> 01:10:28.580
Thank you so much for the interview.

01:10:28.580 --> 01:10:29.420
Thank you.

01:10:30.780 --> 01:10:32.140
Very measured response.

01:10:32.140 --> 01:10:35.620
Yeah, it's like, I mean, what,

01:10:35.620 --> 01:10:37.820
I think this was recorded actually before the G2 match.

01:10:37.820 --> 01:10:38.980
So perhaps he would have been,

01:10:38.980 --> 01:10:42.020
he would have used more expletives if he watched that match,

01:10:42.020 --> 01:10:44.100
but still giving the credit where credit's due.

01:10:44.100 --> 01:10:46.300
But hey, look at these stats at just MSI.

01:10:46.300 --> 01:10:51.860
Now remember both these teams have lost to BOG both these teams have beaten TSW and both these teams have beaten G2

01:10:51.860 --> 01:10:53.860
So they played identical

01:10:54.260 --> 01:10:57.240
Composition inspired us through games with fury as well. So he's played even more number one

01:11:02.620 --> 01:11:08.260
But inspires played exceptionally well at this world championship and does have the respect of all international world championship. Yeah

01:11:08.260 --> 01:11:11.260
Yeah. Yeah. It's MSI. It's okay.

01:11:11.260 --> 01:11:13.260
And I'm looking at...

01:11:13.260 --> 01:11:15.260
It's going to feel like a world shot.

01:11:15.260 --> 01:11:18.260
I'm looking at Kanavi because he is...

01:11:18.260 --> 01:11:21.260
He can be such an engine, again, for this HLE topside.

01:11:21.260 --> 01:11:25.260
One of the biggest things that this team really got together

01:11:25.260 --> 01:11:29.260
during the road to MSI was them being able to play

01:11:29.260 --> 01:11:32.260
around how aggressive Kanavi can be,

01:11:32.260 --> 01:11:37.260
especially early and in tandem with Delight roaming on the map.

01:11:37.260 --> 01:11:43.860
And I think that's going to be so so difficult for lion to match if they are just constantly pushing the pace

01:11:43.860 --> 01:11:48.300
That's the fear. Yeah, the only team that's been able to do it is BLG

01:11:48.300 --> 01:11:52.500
That's why this is such an exciting matchup and everybody is looking at the jungle

01:11:52.500 --> 01:11:57.680
You know Kenobi going straight against inspired who's leading this team and trying to always craft the plan

01:11:57.680 --> 01:12:00.300
I'm not just trying specifically for the enemy jungle

01:12:00.300 --> 01:12:06.900
So, you know, he always is looking for that way to kind of nullify the biggest piece the biggest component that has the most

01:12:06.900 --> 01:12:10.500
volatility to it for the opponents so I'm excited to see what sort of plan he

01:12:10.500 --> 01:12:15.060
comes up with. Yeah, Kobe's always excited when the jungle matchup is in the front of the center.

01:12:15.060 --> 01:12:19.940
Yeah, you're just like I'm excited. I don't think there's an answer coming. If there is one inspired

01:12:19.940 --> 01:12:24.420
I think he's gonna find it. The difference is I never doubted them and I'm not gonna start now.

01:12:24.420 --> 01:12:29.300
Okay, nice call back. Let's see what the fans at home think in our MasterCard fan prediction

01:12:29.300 --> 01:12:33.780
of the day. Let's see if Lyon can garner a little bit more support in the online sphere.

01:12:33.780 --> 01:12:34.780
or whoa!

01:12:34.780 --> 01:12:35.780
What?

01:12:35.780 --> 01:12:36.780
Let's go!

01:12:36.780 --> 01:12:37.780
Yeah!

01:12:37.780 --> 01:12:43.440
I mean, honestly, I knew we were going to lose, but that is really high.

01:12:43.440 --> 01:12:44.440
Let's go!

01:12:44.440 --> 01:12:45.940
I thought this was going to be 90-10.

01:12:45.940 --> 01:12:49.940
Also, the fan prediction rate has plummeted over the past few decades.

01:12:49.940 --> 01:12:51.820
Fismal, it's still over 50%.

01:12:51.820 --> 01:12:54.180
It's about to go to even lower, everybody.

01:12:54.180 --> 01:12:56.140
They didn't predict Lion to win.

01:12:56.140 --> 01:12:57.380
Oh, yeah, yeah.

01:12:57.380 --> 01:12:59.060
Also, zero perfect pick-ups.

01:12:59.060 --> 01:13:00.740
They can't predict to save their lives.

01:13:00.740 --> 01:13:02.060
They're just like us.

01:13:02.060 --> 01:13:03.060
True.

01:13:03.060 --> 01:13:05.060
Most of my predictions have been wrong.

01:13:05.060 --> 01:13:06.340
Well, maybe today as well.

01:13:06.340 --> 01:13:08.140
Let's get into those predictions then.

01:13:08.140 --> 01:13:09.940
I'll kick us off.

01:13:09.940 --> 01:13:10.940
I don't want to jinx anything.

01:13:10.940 --> 01:13:14.420
That's only why I picked HLE to win, three and one.

01:13:14.420 --> 01:13:17.900
So I'm on your side, really, Emily?

01:13:17.900 --> 01:13:22.860
I think HLE's topside is going to be way more difficult.

01:13:22.860 --> 01:13:24.340
You're shaking my mic away.

01:13:24.340 --> 01:13:25.340
I was trying to put my hands up.

01:13:25.340 --> 01:13:27.620
You hate when I say so much, Gaby.

01:13:27.620 --> 01:13:28.620
Don't touch her.

01:13:28.620 --> 01:13:30.380
Yeah.

01:13:30.380 --> 01:13:32.020
I think.

01:13:32.020 --> 01:13:34.620
It's just going to be so difficult to deal with this topside.

01:13:34.620 --> 01:13:36.820
It's going to be really difficult to deal with.

01:13:36.820 --> 01:13:40.420
Kanavi, I think Delight is going to be out roaming Isles

01:13:40.420 --> 01:13:43.820
on the map, which is a huge mismatch for me.

01:13:43.820 --> 01:13:46.180
How can Light do it for me?

01:13:46.180 --> 01:13:48.300
You're 3-2, so you're going to give a little wishwash.

01:13:48.300 --> 01:13:49.860
I'll give you the 3-0 pitch.

01:13:49.860 --> 01:13:50.860
OK.

01:13:50.860 --> 01:13:51.620
This is crazy.

01:13:51.620 --> 01:13:55.700
Every series that NA has played at MSI has been a 3-0.

01:13:55.700 --> 01:13:58.220
So giving anything but a 3-0 or a 0-3,

01:13:58.220 --> 01:14:00.340
everyone is, I'm the only one who has the possibility

01:14:00.340 --> 01:14:00.740
of being right.

01:14:00.740 --> 01:14:01.740
We're sweeping or getting swept.

01:14:01.740 --> 01:14:09.060
That's how it's gonna work. The pressure is on HLE because Korean fans are very clear that the pressure is on HLE.

01:14:09.060 --> 01:14:14.420
They cannot lose, and if they do, LCK loses a Worlds C. I think that's going to matter.

01:14:14.420 --> 01:14:21.640
But then also, if people want to call Lions Run fraudulent, HLE's run is more fraudulent.

01:14:21.640 --> 01:14:29.660
They beat the same teams, they lost to the same teams, their losses to BLG were worse, and they didn't even play one additional team.

01:14:29.660 --> 01:14:40.120
So, it's a long shot. Listen, Lyon is not supposed to be here, but inspired is unlike any player I've ever seen from the West,

01:14:40.120 --> 01:14:43.300
with how he's such a foreraiser and the plans he makes in the game.

01:14:43.300 --> 01:14:49.820
And I've never seen him have more confidence in his teammates than he has in this particular Lyon team.

01:14:49.820 --> 01:14:53.260
Yes, you're totally right. The stars are lining foreline.

01:14:53.260 --> 01:14:56.620
No! Stop cursing!

01:14:56.620 --> 01:15:02.780
Perhaps the Lions can rise up and roar as loudly as they did yesterday to make the Serena into a library.

01:15:02.780 --> 01:15:08.220
All the pressure is on HLE. Can they do it for the LCK? Let's get into this.

01:15:26.620 --> 01:15:30.620
And there are only three teams left.

01:15:30.620 --> 01:15:32.620
The last round of the finals is left.

01:15:32.620 --> 01:15:34.620
Someone has to leave.

01:15:34.620 --> 01:15:36.620
The last four seconds are left.

01:15:36.620 --> 01:15:42.620
In this season, two veterans are waiting for another uniform.

01:15:42.620 --> 01:15:46.620
I think I will be the first to advance to the next team.

01:15:46.620 --> 01:15:54.620
I think it will be a very important victory to think about the relationship between the two teams.

01:15:54.620 --> 01:16:04.620
I think it's great, winning three world championships and then going for a new challenge is very exciting.

01:16:04.620 --> 01:16:09.620
I know it's from experience, just living in winning team with a lot of pressure in you and a lot of expectations.

01:16:09.620 --> 01:16:12.620
And I do think that he stood up to that pressure.

01:16:12.620 --> 01:16:26.960
I think Umayoshi is a very smart player that really knows his job and when it comes to

01:16:26.960 --> 01:16:30.240
In the clutch situations, he always finds a way to be a slow.

01:16:30.240 --> 01:16:32.720
And there's an incidentally barge, that's the pick-off!

01:16:32.720 --> 01:16:34.720
On to Omni by so much time!

01:16:34.720 --> 01:16:37.360
The crates have been called, now is the bullet's fly!

01:16:46.080 --> 01:16:49.360
Lion is clean, effortless guy. First blood to Lion.

01:16:56.960 --> 01:17:03.960
It's been seven years since LCS was at this stage of the tournament.

01:17:03.960 --> 01:17:12.960
I think everyone is looking at us from the underdog mindset, but I think we're going to use it to our advantage, play with no fear, and hopefully we can give it back to our NA fans.

01:17:12.960 --> 01:17:16.960
Inspired dancing on the graves of Europe.

01:17:16.960 --> 01:17:19.960
But I think we're gonna use it as an advantage, play with no fear,

01:17:19.960 --> 01:17:22.960
and hopefully we can give even back to our NA fans.

01:17:22.960 --> 01:17:26.960
Inspired dancing on the graves of Europe!

01:17:26.960 --> 01:17:30.960
Don't wave at me, guys! Hello! Watch the quiesce!

01:17:30.960 --> 01:17:41.960
We're going to prove that LCK is the best league in the whole region.

01:17:41.960 --> 01:17:46.960
And HLLE column alive! Finally here in Zedron!

01:17:46.960 --> 01:17:54.960
The best players in LCS and the best players in SK have put their best efforts into the final.

01:17:54.960 --> 01:18:01.960
I've been ganking a lot recently, so you will never expect me in the bot lane. See you there.

01:18:01.960 --> 01:18:07.960
I'm going to show you my support for the LEC, the 1st generation of SK.

01:18:07.960 --> 01:18:09.960
A new fate is approaching.

01:18:09.960 --> 01:18:13.960
And who will be able to face that moment?

01:18:13.960 --> 01:18:16.960
Call your shot.

01:18:37.960 --> 01:18:47.040
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the penultimate day of competition here at MSI 2026.

01:18:47.040 --> 01:18:55.680
BLG is waiting in the finals tomorrow, but today Korea's number one seed, HLE, takes

01:18:55.680 --> 01:19:01.680
on North America's number one seed, Lyon, for the right to meet them tomorrow on the

01:19:01.680 --> 01:19:07.920
Rift and fight for the MSI title. Uncapped flowers joined by Azale and

01:19:07.920 --> 01:19:14.040
Dagda here for this best of five to see who really deserves to take that stage

01:19:14.040 --> 01:19:19.200
tomorrow. And both these teams absolutely destroyed my home region so we get to see

01:19:19.200 --> 01:19:24.840
which 3-0 is actually gonna be better here today. I am very excited, honestly like

01:19:24.840 --> 01:19:28.880
one line has shown of this tournament has been incredibly impressive. I knew

01:19:28.880 --> 01:19:33.680
level of being able to find success in the early stage of the game take over from that position

01:19:33.680 --> 01:19:37.880
And I think they need to just not here today against how well I teach for I mean

01:19:37.880 --> 01:19:42.480
I think they have to do everything at its highest level that have their capabilities

01:19:42.480 --> 01:19:46.320
You know lion has to play their very best series to have a real shot here against HLE

01:19:46.480 --> 01:19:49.680
Let's be honest. It's David versus the lion here

01:19:49.680 --> 01:19:56.000
But lion have shown that they can at least go toe-to-toe we saw them against BLG who obviously is already waiting in the finals

01:19:56.000 --> 01:20:03.000
and yes they did get swept but in all three games they were a teamfighter two away from potentially taking those games

01:20:03.000 --> 01:20:09.000
and that is what I'm hoping they can do get themselves in with a shot and then hopefully execute in some of the teamfights.

01:20:09.000 --> 01:20:18.000
I feel like it certainly favors HLE here the LCK historically the strongest region at international competition.

01:20:18.000 --> 01:20:24.000
People will bring up of course that the LPL is the region who traditionally wins the most specifically at MSI

01:20:24.000 --> 01:20:28.000
MSI and of course BLG is already waiting for today's winner.

01:20:28.000 --> 01:20:31.240
But for North America making it to this stage,

01:20:31.240 --> 01:20:32.940
you even heard in the opener today,

01:20:32.940 --> 01:20:36.400
inspired himself talking about how it's been seven years

01:20:36.400 --> 01:20:38.600
since North America got this far.

01:20:38.600 --> 01:20:40.840
Getting here was not supposed to happen.

01:20:40.840 --> 01:20:42.760
And now as we get into champs of light,

01:20:42.760 --> 01:20:45.600
presented by HyperX here for the first time today,

01:20:45.600 --> 01:20:47.960
we'll see if Lyon can find another miracle

01:20:47.960 --> 01:20:50.640
or if HLE will prove their might.

01:20:50.640 --> 01:20:55.040
HLE really want to try and get that rematch against BLG in the finals.

01:20:55.040 --> 01:20:59.200
A ton of world champions on their side, but not an MSI to speak of.

01:20:59.200 --> 01:21:01.280
Still waiting to add that to their trophy cabinets,

01:21:01.280 --> 01:21:03.520
but it starts with trying to take down line here today.

01:21:03.520 --> 01:21:05.520
And I think that's kind of the beauty of HLE,

01:21:05.520 --> 01:21:08.240
is that they are trying to establish their own legacy,

01:21:08.240 --> 01:21:11.120
separate themselves from these other teams, other rosters,

01:21:11.120 --> 01:21:14.480
other players that they have played with in the past.

01:21:14.480 --> 01:21:18.240
And this team is absolutely looking terrifying,

01:21:18.240 --> 01:21:22.660
And they are gonna have their eyes set on the finals. They are gonna be

01:21:23.460 --> 01:21:27.560
Expected to crush Lyon and I wonder if that does add a little bit more pressure, right?

01:21:27.560 --> 01:21:30.800
We think back to HLE's last series against BLG which was rough

01:21:30.800 --> 01:21:34.960
They won the single game otherwise BLG very dominant especially in those first two games

01:21:35.040 --> 01:21:38.520
But you think previously in the tournament HLE absolutely

01:21:39.080 --> 01:21:44.480
Smashed both Secret Whales and G2 in Swift 3-0. I do like the prep that we have from home

01:21:44.480 --> 01:21:48.680
coming in towards draft though because already getting rid of Saints Dorianna

01:21:48.680 --> 01:21:52.280
and the Akali two champions he's been great on but the least him from inspired

01:21:52.280 --> 01:21:55.280
as well has been one of the most impressive picks for me coming into it so

01:21:55.280 --> 01:21:59.920
yeah that is fair. I know they've been thinking pretty hard about it because he's

01:21:59.920 --> 01:22:03.880
been impeccable on this champion and I think trying to remove some of those

01:22:03.880 --> 01:22:06.640
tools where he can be active in the early stage is gonna be great. Yeah I

01:22:06.640 --> 01:22:12.280
completely agree I mean his leasing has been absolutely inspired if you want to say so.

01:22:12.280 --> 01:22:15.560
Okay, all right, we're not even making the past champ select for you

01:22:16.400 --> 01:22:18.760
Gotta get warmed up, you know that he's into it

01:22:19.120 --> 01:22:20.240
Casio gonna be banned now

01:22:20.240 --> 01:22:25.080
Which does allow them to take the rise and Zeta it'll be interesting to see where he wants

01:22:25.080 --> 01:22:29.960
Oh played the anivia once we're getting an early key on it though

01:22:29.960 --> 01:22:35.560
That is pretty surprising here for inspired obviously is something that can you know dash under that cataclysm

01:22:35.560 --> 01:22:38.200
That is gonna be able to have a lot of threat but drafting it so early

01:22:38.200 --> 01:22:42.300
You do not know if there are vulnerable carries over on the other side for you to attack

01:22:42.520 --> 01:22:44.640
Well, one thing that I immediately think of yes

01:22:44.640 --> 01:22:45.940
You can dash out of the cataclysm

01:22:45.940 --> 01:22:51.540
But you can also supremely display your talent back into it and potentially turn the ulti back against HLE

01:22:51.540 --> 01:22:54.800
It also means that for a lot of the picks that you want to try and take into the rise

01:22:55.120 --> 01:22:59.900
Those are vulnerable to the kiyama as well. So maybe that's basically what they're thinking here

01:22:59.900 --> 01:23:05.580
But already we're seeing what was going to be the goomayushi delight special this ziggs and Camille in the bottom side

01:23:05.580 --> 01:23:10.460
to like wants to get out on the mop early. Yeah, it's gonna be very interesting to see how I respond now

01:23:10.460 --> 01:23:14.780
Do you actually match any of the rules here? It looks like they're gonna go double solo lanes

01:23:14.780 --> 01:23:19.940
And then of course HLE could be targeting the bot lane picks it potentially this is really nice

01:23:19.940 --> 01:23:23.100
What is gonna be poppy this is a potential flex. It could be top or support

01:23:23.100 --> 01:23:31.260
I do like this kind of new shift towards you're looking to actually counter the Camille instead of looking towards countering the actual

01:23:31.260 --> 01:23:32.260
that you can see.

01:23:32.260 --> 01:23:33.940
People are thinking, OK, well, we're just going to draft

01:23:33.940 --> 01:23:35.820
poke, and we're going to poke back and forth with the zigs,

01:23:35.820 --> 01:23:37.420
and then they get engaged on it.

01:23:37.420 --> 01:23:39.620
And some of these teams now, we've seen things like Taliyah

01:23:39.620 --> 01:23:41.140
Leona going into the Camille, which

01:23:41.140 --> 01:23:42.660
makes it so hard to make plays.

01:23:42.660 --> 01:23:44.780
And I think that Poppy is that same premise.

01:23:44.780 --> 01:23:46.900
It's making it very difficult for the Camille

01:23:46.900 --> 01:23:48.620
to ever go in aggressively.

01:23:48.620 --> 01:23:50.620
And so I am kind of feeling like it's likely

01:23:50.620 --> 01:23:54.220
to be played by Isles unless we see something

01:23:54.220 --> 01:23:55.140
blinded by Zayas.

01:23:55.140 --> 01:23:56.300
That is a good matchup.

01:23:56.300 --> 01:23:57.140
Yeah, no, I agree.

01:23:57.140 --> 01:23:59.180
We see basically this trend of supports

01:23:59.180 --> 01:24:00.780
that are valuable at level three,

01:24:00.780 --> 01:24:02.620
and having that steadfast presence so good

01:24:02.620 --> 01:24:03.740
when you have to move around the map

01:24:03.740 --> 01:24:04.780
and you move back to that bot lane

01:24:04.780 --> 01:24:07.180
around the eight minute mark to get that catch up XP

01:24:07.180 --> 01:24:08.620
and then you get access to the level six

01:24:08.620 --> 01:24:12.060
and Poppy is a menacing team fight against people

01:24:12.060 --> 01:24:14.860
like Jarvan because he goes in, half your team goes out.

01:24:14.860 --> 01:24:16.420
You're gonna be happy if that is lying.

01:24:16.420 --> 01:24:19.020
And you could also stop Ziggs from being able to escape

01:24:19.020 --> 01:24:20.940
with the Satchel if you're positioned correctly

01:24:20.940 --> 01:24:21.980
with the steadpass presence.

01:24:21.980 --> 01:24:24.900
So Poppy having value against all three choices

01:24:24.900 --> 01:24:28.260
already locked in here for HLE will provide a lot of value.

01:24:28.260 --> 01:24:31.940
The NAR and the Annie banned out by Lyon here in the second phase

01:24:31.940 --> 01:24:34.220
while Ezreal is the target fan here for HLE.

01:24:34.220 --> 01:24:36.820
Something I really think about too is having talked to Inspired,

01:24:36.820 --> 01:24:38.620
he said this in interviews as well,

01:24:38.620 --> 01:24:41.580
when he is playing against players he thinks he's better than,

01:24:41.580 --> 01:24:43.860
he doesn't want to take risks, he wants to play really steady.

01:24:43.860 --> 01:24:45.940
When he's playing against someone like HLE,

01:24:45.940 --> 01:24:48.180
that he says, okay, you are the better team,

01:24:48.180 --> 01:24:51.060
we need to get spicy, we need to have surprise picks,

01:24:51.060 --> 01:24:53.780
we need to have aggressive moves, we need to take risks,

01:24:53.780 --> 01:24:56.340
because if you play stable of a game,

01:24:56.340 --> 01:24:58.420
You are kind of just playing into their hands.

01:24:58.420 --> 01:25:01.260
So that is what I'm thinking of with this flex poppy,

01:25:01.260 --> 01:25:05.140
with this Camille, rather the Keanu coming in early.

01:25:05.140 --> 01:25:07.780
And the final band of the draft here for game one

01:25:07.780 --> 01:25:11.580
is the Vayne, that target ban towards Dokuah,

01:25:11.580 --> 01:25:14.820
getting rid of one of those ranged top laner counter picks.

01:25:14.820 --> 01:25:16.220
It's very different to play against.

01:25:16.220 --> 01:25:18.540
It creates a pattern, but if you're not ready for it,

01:25:18.540 --> 01:25:19.780
you can be caught off guard.

01:25:19.780 --> 01:25:21.980
We remember the performance on Vayne earlier in the tournament

01:25:21.980 --> 01:25:25.180
from Broken Blade on that Vayne that really kind of showcased

01:25:25.180 --> 01:25:27.160
that so HLE doesn't want to deal with it.

01:25:27.160 --> 01:25:29.740
Instead, we're going to see the Zindra locked in for Zeca.

01:25:29.740 --> 01:25:31.860
I wonder if it is just going to be something along the lines

01:25:31.860 --> 01:25:33.220
of a Scion or a Cassante.

01:25:33.220 --> 01:25:34.580
That's kind of what I was thinking of when

01:25:34.580 --> 01:25:36.860
I did see this game, Dan.

01:25:36.860 --> 01:25:39.020
Of course, it can be good into the renec-tion as well.

01:25:39.020 --> 01:25:43.300
This is the winless Scion, though, 0-9 so far at the tournament.

01:25:43.300 --> 01:25:45.380
I'm going to be so curious to see where

01:25:45.380 --> 01:25:46.700
Dokla decides to go.

01:25:46.700 --> 01:25:48.860
Does he just want to go tank for tank, play the poppy?

01:25:48.860 --> 01:25:51.380
Or does he want to go something a little bit more spicy,

01:25:51.380 --> 01:25:52.740
play for that 1v1?

01:25:52.740 --> 01:25:58.020
I kind of like the tank because honestly, there's not much in the way of AD damage on the opposite side.

01:25:58.020 --> 01:26:02.300
Sure, you've got the Jarvan, but realistically, you can match with something that, I mean, even if there's a hand,

01:26:02.300 --> 01:26:05.580
you can go towards like a death stance. I think you get a, I'm sorry, not a death stance.

01:26:05.580 --> 01:26:09.020
If you can go towards that early match resist, I think you're in an okay spot,

01:26:09.020 --> 01:26:12.620
but you're just going to go for the Ambassador looking to see if he can carry from that top lane.

01:26:12.620 --> 01:26:15.500
Yeah, going to be going towards the Ambassador, and there is quite a bit of setup.

01:26:15.500 --> 01:26:17.420
So there are some interesting combinations.

01:26:17.420 --> 01:26:21.260
You talked about the interaction, obviously, with the Supreme Display of Talent into the Cataclysm.

01:26:21.260 --> 01:26:24.940
There is also the possibilities of the poppy stunning people in the cataclysm as well.

01:26:24.940 --> 01:26:28.500
There's possibilities of you then get any of that CC.

01:26:28.500 --> 01:26:29.900
The Ambesa ult comes over the top.

01:26:29.900 --> 01:26:32.100
You have setups both from the poppy as well as the Keanu.

01:26:32.100 --> 01:26:34.220
You have setups from a Jin Rue from a Ryze W.

01:26:34.220 --> 01:26:36.980
There are a lot of ways to try to set up that Ambesa.

01:26:36.980 --> 01:26:42.020
If you can get in on the back line, attack the Ziggs, attack the Syndra, that is the goal.

01:26:42.020 --> 01:26:46.940
They're going to have to be creative with their angles because you cannot fight through the Sion with a comp like this.

01:26:46.940 --> 01:26:51.700
But Lyon has had good setup, has had good prep, so I'm excited to see how they want to play it.

01:26:51.700 --> 01:26:56.540
Alright, I'm going to go ahead and ask you gentlemen, then with all 10 champions locked in, Rob, I'm going to go to you first.

01:26:56.540 --> 01:26:58.980
Which draft do you prefer here?

01:26:58.980 --> 01:27:05.260
I like what Lyon have to be honest. I think you've got a good setup for Doklan, that topside, which is going to be a key to success for Lyon.

01:27:05.260 --> 01:27:13.140
And then you've got great 1-3-1, which enables you then for those objective setups, getting down vision, getting control to make sure you have those flank angles.

01:27:13.140 --> 01:27:16.340
And if you're able to attack HLE before they can set up,

01:27:16.340 --> 01:27:18.540
I think that's your biggest win here for Lyon.

01:27:18.540 --> 01:27:21.040
I mean, it's really interesting because I think with name plates off,

01:27:21.040 --> 01:27:24.840
I like what HLE have, but knowing that you are the underdogs' Lyon,

01:27:24.840 --> 01:27:28.240
I want variants, I want something that is a little bit more spicy.

01:27:28.240 --> 01:27:30.740
Even though I see Lyon's comp as harder to execute,

01:27:30.740 --> 01:27:33.640
I like what they have drafted given the circumstances,

01:27:33.640 --> 01:27:38.040
given that you are going up against the number one team from the LCK.

01:27:38.040 --> 01:27:41.240
Yeah, HLE, certainly nothing to scoff at.

01:27:41.240 --> 01:27:49.240
You guys already mentioned earlier how there's plenty of World Championship accomplishments here on this roster with these names still looking for that MSI title.

01:27:49.240 --> 01:27:56.240
This is HLE's first MSI as an organization and being able to make it to finals there, you know that's what they're hungry for.

01:27:56.240 --> 01:28:01.240
Yeah, especially for guys like you, five MSIs in a row, not able to pick up a single title.

01:28:01.240 --> 01:28:05.240
And he's been doing pretty good on, you know, the other event that we have in the year, Worlds is-

01:28:05.240 --> 01:28:07.240
The arms are full with all those World Strokes music.

01:28:07.240 --> 01:28:08.240
It is full of them.

01:28:08.240 --> 01:28:10.960
But well, we'll have to see if we can carry on the Ziggs.

01:28:10.960 --> 01:28:14.760
But it is definitely something that both himself and Zayasr are hunting for coming into this.

01:28:14.760 --> 01:28:18.880
It's also worth mentioning, it is not just a single TP advantage, it is double TP advantage.

01:28:18.880 --> 01:28:23.280
Because Ryze, of course, plays Ghost these days, but it's also TP Ziggs down there in the bot lane.

01:28:23.280 --> 01:28:26.960
And Iles is not playing aftershock, he's not playing Aile of Blades, anything too crazy.

01:28:26.960 --> 01:28:30.240
It's going to be spellbook. So spellbook obviously has a lot of value later on,

01:28:30.240 --> 01:28:35.040
but if you do have an early all-in, you're really getting nothing from that down in that 2v2.

01:28:35.040 --> 01:28:40.680
So they're gonna have to play pretty well here against Camille who has so much early game power with the ignited hill of blades

01:28:40.680 --> 01:28:47.280
And this is kind of what we got to see from HLE against G2 was if you can get to light out and work in the Cannabi

01:28:47.280 --> 01:28:49.280
We need to cover some of that early aggression

01:28:49.280 --> 01:28:53.240
That was one of the ways that HLE were able to get such an advantageous game one

01:28:53.240 --> 01:28:55.360
And I think this is something we'll continue to see here

01:28:55.360 --> 01:28:59.840
Especially when you look towards Cannabi on the Jarvan so good at those counterganks against the Qiyana

01:28:59.840 --> 01:29:02.640
We just saw Isles, he actually started W, level 1 there.

01:29:02.640 --> 01:29:07.940
So, he was expecting the Hookshot start from Delight, so he actually starts with that step-fast presence,

01:29:07.940 --> 01:29:13.340
and is able to reject that Hookshot as he's going in, so, just really looking to keep Rizzurka safe.

01:29:13.340 --> 01:29:19.940
Again, it is more about countering the support than it is about that Ziggs, and look at Isles, there's a roam coming mid here, and the Camille will be spotted.

01:29:19.940 --> 01:29:27.240
Okay, not any play about to happen here just yet, as Rizzurka does take the opportunity seeing the enemy support on the roam,

01:29:27.240 --> 01:29:28.960
to put some pressure on Takuma Yuushin.

01:29:28.960 --> 01:29:30.240
You can see on the left side of your screen here,

01:29:30.240 --> 01:29:33.120
the journey so far at MSI,

01:29:33.120 --> 01:29:36.000
both of these teams starting off with a free zero against

01:29:36.000 --> 01:29:37.600
Yuria and Team Secret respectively,

01:29:37.600 --> 01:29:39.880
as Iles again stops that hook shot.

01:29:39.880 --> 01:29:40.680
This is actually huge though,

01:29:40.680 --> 01:29:42.680
because he uses that fast presence and Jarvan is coming.

01:29:42.680 --> 01:29:44.920
So he won't have that now as Kanabi's coming in.

01:29:44.920 --> 01:29:47.480
Kanabi ready to make the play here on the bottom side.

01:29:47.480 --> 01:29:48.720
Iles trying to get enough distance,

01:29:48.720 --> 01:29:50.520
but he does get caught by the EQ combo.

01:29:50.520 --> 01:29:53.000
Tries to tackle Kanabi away, but no!

01:29:53.000 --> 01:29:54.760
First blood of Takuma Yuushin.

01:29:54.760 --> 01:30:03.060
Berserker tries to get something back with a deadly flourish, but you called it a zeal, a big mistake, and now Jalice tries to get onto Berserker, good ward to spot out though.

01:30:03.060 --> 01:30:13.760
Yep, lands the stun there from the hook shot, bouncing bomb, gonna throw in some extra damage, Berserker pops the barrier to keep himself alive, but now down to 100 HP and missing a summoner spell, he's heading home.

01:30:13.760 --> 01:30:21.960
I mean that was just really, really well played there by HLE Delight, obviously setting it up, 10 seconds in advance for Kanavi, climbing out that gank perfectly.

01:30:21.960 --> 01:30:25.740
They know he's moving down. They forced us that fast presence and then as a result

01:30:25.740 --> 01:30:27.740
There's not really much of an opportunity from Isles

01:30:27.740 --> 01:30:30.540
I think his only way out might have been flashing the flag drag

01:30:30.540 --> 01:30:34.940
But I think he saw it as the flash doesn't get me any more distance than just tackling the Jarvan afterwards

01:30:34.940 --> 01:30:40.500
So I feel like it's probably correct just hold on and we remember the first game that the light played Camille in this tournament

01:30:40.500 --> 01:30:44.260
What was it 3-1 and 3 by six or seven minutes into the game?

01:30:44.260 --> 01:30:47.420
His performance on this champion can be so

01:30:47.420 --> 01:30:51.140
suffocating for the enemy team if he gets ahead if he plays the way that he

01:30:51.140 --> 01:30:54.740
wants to and setting up plays like this for Kenavi is exactly what HLE fans

01:30:54.740 --> 01:30:58.380
want to see. Exactly and the gold went right where you'd want it right Guma is

01:30:58.380 --> 01:31:01.260
able to get that gold the only thing that a vert disaster is berserker

01:31:01.260 --> 01:31:04.180
living but they're gonna try to get bought and see if they can punish Guma

01:31:04.180 --> 01:31:09.260
who's pretty far up this could work. Okay I also put himself in position here in

01:31:09.260 --> 01:31:12.060
the tribe Raj. Guma you she gonna step forward flash stun in the wall coming out

01:31:12.060 --> 01:31:14.900
for miles Guma you she with a flash away but he is blocked there with a safe fast

01:31:14.900 --> 01:31:18.900
They need one more hit, come out from Inspired! They get it!

01:31:18.900 --> 01:31:22.900
The turret will not get anything in return, but now up here on the topside, the light makes his roll.

01:31:22.900 --> 01:31:27.900
The hookshot guarantees that Dokla has to flash away, but Lyon's top laner stays alive.

01:31:27.900 --> 01:31:33.900
Still, you end up with that kill on the bottom side, and the early kill for Inspired is massive for the Kiana.

01:31:33.900 --> 01:31:40.900
At TP now, going back to the bottom side, Goomayushi, have to use that just to try and get back to this lane.

01:31:40.900 --> 01:31:43.900
Yeah, absolutely. I mean, that's a pretty critical kill there. Get some gold for Inspired.

01:31:43.900 --> 01:31:47.980
for inspired. And even more important, I feel like was the fact that Dokla lives because

01:31:47.980 --> 01:31:53.420
if Dokla loses that wave, Zaeus gets a kill and Zaeus takes a plate right after, then

01:31:53.420 --> 01:31:58.020
all of a sudden the sign is a brick wall that you cannot contest. So critical plays on both

01:31:58.020 --> 01:32:02.780
sides of the map here for Lyon. We know that HLE are going to be beast in the 5v5. We know

01:32:02.780 --> 01:32:07.260
that too. We even have a chance in the 5v5. You've got to stay close or maybe even have

01:32:07.260 --> 01:32:12.540
a lead by the time you get there. And we think back to the last series of HLE played up against

01:32:12.540 --> 01:32:18.380
BLG and at least for the first three games it was so go the skirmishes so go the game

01:32:18.380 --> 01:32:24.660
Which ever side got ahead in these small scuffles early on was able to snowball it into a victory game number four had a bit

01:32:24.660 --> 01:32:28.340
More trading back and forth a game that was closer for a longer period of time

01:32:28.420 --> 01:32:35.100
But if you're lying you cannot let HLE always be deciding what's gonna happen because they will push the game forward

01:32:35.100 --> 01:32:37.500
And they'll do it fast and that's why the early kill for good me

01:32:37.500 --> 01:32:42.860
He's a little unfortunate for line because it does keep the tear to the Zeke's to enable him to push significantly more

01:32:42.860 --> 01:32:46.860
Which opens up to light to move more even now that early dragon going across the HLE

01:32:46.860 --> 01:32:52.460
This has become such a strong stacking combo in this meta get to dragons roam around the map

01:32:52.460 --> 01:32:55.660
Maybe for go a couple of them so he can look for plates and gold elsewhere

01:32:55.660 --> 01:32:59.740
It is about trying to snowball through this definitely isn't it's also interesting

01:32:59.740 --> 01:33:02.020
Obviously syndrome becoming pretty meta in this tournament

01:33:02.020 --> 01:33:05.860
But it is only the fourth time in Zeke's entire career that he's actually played the pick

01:33:05.860 --> 01:33:10.700
So not a pick that he has shown a lot obviously when he won his first world championship

01:33:10.700 --> 01:33:16.720
He was known as the melee guy and he has become so much more well-rounded in the year since then which is

01:33:17.180 --> 01:33:22.160
Incredibly impressive to me to be able to just advance and advance and advance in your career

01:33:22.160 --> 01:33:27.140
Well now we've got another play coming up here in the top side as Doka tries to use public execution to get away

01:33:27.140 --> 01:33:28.140
But no

01:33:28.140 --> 01:33:32.740
Decimating smash for the follow-up from Kanavi and now Eiles and Sage trying to get something back

01:33:32.740 --> 01:33:34.580
but they found themselves trapped in a cataclysm.

01:33:34.580 --> 01:33:36.380
HLE still got 3v2.

01:33:36.380 --> 01:33:38.140
Decimating Smash, finds another.

01:33:38.140 --> 01:33:40.380
Iles is killed out by Delight's Ignite.

01:33:40.380 --> 01:33:43.900
And HLE are burning bright in the top lane.

01:33:43.900 --> 01:33:45.860
Oh, trying to get one more inspired!

01:33:45.860 --> 01:33:47.780
Inspired goes into the dive on Kanavi.

01:33:47.780 --> 01:33:49.060
He wants to get something,

01:33:49.060 --> 01:33:51.300
but he has to trade his own life to do it.

01:33:51.300 --> 01:33:53.860
And HLE come out on top in the play.

01:33:53.860 --> 01:33:56.020
I think inspired once he knew that he was spotted,

01:33:56.020 --> 01:33:58.460
that Jig was up, hide and seek was not going to go well for him.

01:33:58.460 --> 01:34:00.340
So trades won for one.

01:34:00.340 --> 01:34:01.580
But that's what Lyon expected.

01:34:01.580 --> 01:34:04.340
they thought that they would have the numbers advantage on the top side with

01:34:04.340 --> 01:34:08.300
Saint not prepared for Delight and Canavi to already be in position. And

01:34:08.300 --> 01:34:11.700
honestly it came down to a couple little things there. Doku is able to actually

01:34:11.700 --> 01:34:16.100
use that public execution to taxi out of the play a little bit here. It could look

01:34:16.100 --> 01:34:19.780
so differently because you can see on the map the HLE members are going to be

01:34:19.780 --> 01:34:23.700
first here and then watch this all from Doku. He's trying to use that as a taxi

01:34:23.700 --> 01:34:28.460
over onto the Jarvan, but the side step from Canavi is so critical because not

01:34:28.460 --> 01:34:31.460
only is Canavi avoiding the damage in the stun, it means he didn't actually

01:34:31.460 --> 01:34:33.780
close the gap in, but we gotta go back to live potentially.

01:34:33.780 --> 01:34:36.020
It looks like St. Will be okay.

01:34:36.020 --> 01:34:37.980
Now they are able to run down and kill Isles,

01:34:37.980 --> 01:34:40.180
and then we do know Inspired eventually got one back,

01:34:40.180 --> 01:34:43.300
but yeah, that alt missing such a big deal.

01:34:43.300 --> 01:34:45.220
Yeah, even at the Canada there in the back line as well,

01:34:45.220 --> 01:34:46.940
Inspired didn't come in initially,

01:34:46.940 --> 01:34:48.820
was trying to stay off that pink ward that was there

01:34:48.820 --> 01:34:49.780
to try and surprise them,

01:34:49.780 --> 01:34:52.020
but already knew the play had gone sideways

01:34:52.020 --> 01:34:53.620
before he could really join in anyway.

01:34:53.620 --> 01:34:55.180
You can see the frustration on Doko's face.

01:34:55.180 --> 01:34:57.460
He knows that is a pretty big moment.

01:34:57.460 --> 01:35:00.180
And the one thing working for Inspired in that 1v1

01:35:00.180 --> 01:35:02.780
is it was a positive trade as far as the Summoners.

01:35:02.780 --> 01:35:05.620
Kanavi did flash and still died in that moment.

01:35:05.620 --> 01:35:08.940
So the gold's still very close,

01:35:08.940 --> 01:35:11.620
but Dokla's top lane matchup getting that much harder

01:35:11.620 --> 01:35:13.900
as Zayas walks away with a kill and assist.

01:35:13.900 --> 01:35:16.140
Yup, Zayas feeling good with that scion,

01:35:16.140 --> 01:35:19.260
just farming up, getting tanky as this game goes forward.

01:35:19.260 --> 01:35:21.140
And the thing is, Lyon's composition

01:35:21.140 --> 01:35:24.980
has an assassin jungler as well as Jin as the AD carry.

01:35:24.980 --> 01:35:27.700
If Zayas gets ahead, if he can get these tank items

01:35:27.700 --> 01:35:29.460
and become that big meatball,

01:35:29.460 --> 01:35:32.940
It's going to be so difficult for Lyon to punch through him as HLE have started up the grubs.

01:35:32.940 --> 01:35:35.440
First grub going to be secured here by Kenavi.

01:35:35.440 --> 01:35:38.440
As Lyon arrives on the scene, HLE will walk away.

01:35:38.440 --> 01:35:42.440
Yeah, Kenavi didn't have the flash, so little bit nervous to stick around as Kiana's ultimates

01:35:42.440 --> 01:35:44.440
was just about to come back off Kuran.

01:35:44.440 --> 01:35:48.440
So Lyon able to bully them off the creeps should be able to pick up two of the void grubs

01:35:48.440 --> 01:35:53.440
and just try to position themselves further on this topside to enable Berserker to catch the wave.

01:35:53.440 --> 01:35:58.440
One thing I will say, Sion obviously is a brick wall, but they do have some ways to deal with it.

01:35:58.440 --> 01:36:03.560
particularly Isles and his ult. If you can actually knock someone like the sign out, if he's going for a Q-Channel,

01:36:03.560 --> 01:36:08.920
you knock him out of the fight, all of a sudden, all of the targets are pretty juicy over on the HLE side,

01:36:08.920 --> 01:36:13.240
but they're going to have to be very clever about how they approach about the angles that they find,

01:36:13.240 --> 01:36:16.920
because of course, I agree, it's not a winning proposition to try to fight through Zayas.

01:36:16.920 --> 01:36:20.680
It's also why I love the rise with the Qiyana as well, because even a realm warp

01:36:20.680 --> 01:36:25.560
to get the Qiyana into the backline, into positions that they're not expecting, can be so crucial,

01:36:25.560 --> 01:36:27.800
And that's also to do with the point and click CC,

01:36:27.800 --> 01:36:29.700
the rise can offer for some of these early plays.

01:36:29.700 --> 01:36:31.660
Although 10 minutes turning into the game now,

01:36:31.660 --> 01:36:33.940
we're going to be looking more at these objectives as a minute

01:36:33.940 --> 01:36:35.160
until that next dragon.

01:36:35.160 --> 01:36:37.600
I think Lyne would love to try and at least keep

01:36:37.600 --> 01:36:39.340
out HLE from stacking these.

01:36:39.340 --> 01:36:41.380
Exactly, HLE's first dragon, remember,

01:36:41.380 --> 01:36:44.100
was taken just about five and a half minutes into the game.

01:36:44.100 --> 01:36:46.700
Very, very early to get the stacking started.

01:36:46.700 --> 01:36:49.220
If they can continue keeping that pressure on,

01:36:49.220 --> 01:36:51.020
then Lyne are going to be the one sledding

01:36:51.020 --> 01:36:53.300
to try to find an answer before they're

01:36:53.300 --> 01:36:55.340
under the pressure of surrendering the soul

01:36:55.340 --> 01:37:00.340
over to HLE. First items are coming online for both of our junglers here as the Sundar

01:37:00.340 --> 01:37:05.020
Sky and Baltic Cyclosword are purchased for Kenobi and inspired, respectively, so similar

01:37:05.020 --> 01:37:08.420
power spikes for both junglers with 40 seconds left to the Dragon spawns.

01:37:08.420 --> 01:37:12.260
I will say while the gold is close, there's a lot of crystals building up on these towers,

01:37:12.260 --> 01:37:15.700
so if someone wins a teamfight, especially if HLE wins a teamfight with the Ziggs, you

01:37:15.700 --> 01:37:19.740
walk up, you knock the crystal off, you have the passive, you could all of a sudden execute

01:37:19.740 --> 01:37:24.780
that tower and get this massive injection of gold, which could make things incredibly

01:37:24.780 --> 01:37:29.300
hard for Lyon so I do think if they fight this next dragon it is gonna be

01:37:29.300 --> 01:37:34.220
critical for Lyon. Alright dragon down to below 15 seconds you can see Kanabi

01:37:34.220 --> 01:37:37.380
hanging out around the mid lane here does use the sweeper to clear out the

01:37:37.380 --> 01:37:41.540
vision from Saint on the bottom side river here towards mid lane recall from

01:37:41.540 --> 01:37:46.580
inspired going back to base purchases a serrated dirt for some extra assassin

01:37:46.580 --> 01:37:50.460
capability but with the Lyon jungler all the way back home HLE has total control

01:37:50.460 --> 01:37:53.420
over the bot side. Yeah I don't think HLE know this though and that's why they're

01:37:53.420 --> 01:37:56.540
been a little a bit hesitant to start this up, although I think from line's

01:37:56.540 --> 01:37:59.900
perspective, trying to get into this position now into river is going to be

01:37:59.900 --> 01:38:03.180
tough, but you don't really have a true tank. It's kind of just I'lls who has to

01:38:03.180 --> 01:38:07.100
face check this. Exactly, and with SIGs and Syndra firing off bombs, scatter the

01:38:07.100 --> 01:38:10.820
weeks, it's very very difficult to potentially make your way forward.

01:38:10.820 --> 01:38:13.540
Saint Trotto approach here on the left side, inspired over the wall, goes in for

01:38:13.540 --> 01:38:16.620
Supreme display of talent, but it's fired a skilled first. Gohiyoshi with a mega

01:38:16.620 --> 01:38:20.780
inferno bomb, I'll trap inside the cataclysm. HLE has lost their support, but

01:38:20.780 --> 01:38:25.340
They've killed the enemy support in the jungler as well the dragon goes over the lion

01:38:25.340 --> 01:38:27.340
So at least they'll take the objective

01:38:27.340 --> 01:38:33.400
But they lose out to the one and kill saintees stepping up again managing to get the dragon in the middle of all of that

01:38:33.500 --> 01:38:39.180
Four line so even with those kills going over it's still a very small goal need for HLE

01:38:39.180 --> 01:38:44.540
But objective secured exactly I think because they got that dragon and really does bail them out and even getting a plate

01:38:44.540 --> 01:38:47.980
Off the back of that there for saintees means the gold actually got closer

01:38:47.980 --> 01:38:50.820
Even though they did go down a kill we can see this one more time

01:38:50.820 --> 01:38:55.940
Inspired is just looking for the steal trying to go for the angle over and as soon as the light does show here

01:38:55.940 --> 01:39:01.860
He goes in and looks to 100 is zero and watch the gin W coming through trying to burst them down

01:39:01.860 --> 01:39:07.420
Saint is getting in there and they are able to burst down inspired as the Megan for no bomb lands

01:39:07.460 --> 01:39:13.620
But then that spell flux through everything the Q bounces and that's what actually secured it

01:39:13.620 --> 01:39:18.000
Yeah, insane stuff there at the managing to get that and I think this for line

01:39:18.540 --> 01:39:22.220
It's massive like you actually get to keep that goal lead but in touching distance

01:39:22.220 --> 01:39:26.460
You're stopping that dragon stock it gives you a lot more opportunities to start moving around the map

01:39:26.460 --> 01:39:31.460
And I think we're starting to see from inspired like that kind of risky game play that he talked about

01:39:31.460 --> 01:39:33.940
It's like he was saying when I'm playing against these top teams

01:39:33.940 --> 01:39:35.140
I need to take some more risks

01:39:35.140 --> 01:39:36.500
He's full cent it there

01:39:36.500 --> 01:39:39.860
But it was his combo despite him dying that set up that win

01:39:39.860 --> 01:39:42.660
No, and I completely agree. I mean this is something that I whoa

01:39:43.620 --> 01:39:48.220
So, Dokla goes in for the public execution, wants the solo kill on the Zekka, but the light is ready to try to stop him!

01:39:48.220 --> 01:39:50.820
Dokla's all the way underneath the turret and he grabs the kill!

01:39:50.820 --> 01:39:56.820
Hacks Zekka ultimatum! Keeps him underneath the turret for so long that the light gets won in trade! It's a one for one in the topside!

01:39:56.820 --> 01:40:00.820
Really well done there by Dokla. New Zekka had no ultimate, but it's a trade of flashes.

01:40:00.820 --> 01:40:05.020
He gets the kill and he gets the ulti off of the light there and hadn't the light not been there.

01:40:05.020 --> 01:40:11.420
It would have been a free kill, so Dokla gets that Eclipse, goes in aggressively, takes down Zekka,

01:40:11.420 --> 01:40:17.500
And second is going to be very vulnerable now with inspired having flash and Isle's flash will be up before his two and two minutes into the

01:40:17.500 --> 01:40:18.020
Riftarons

01:40:18.020 --> 01:40:23.300
That's the next big objective right if you can start taking some of these turrets like and keep HLE on their side

01:40:23.300 --> 01:40:28.180
You don't get some of the skating that the Ziggs would love. Isle's marching to just to make it out of us

01:40:28.740 --> 01:40:31.140
Yeah, but still I think you're in a decent spot now is lying

01:40:31.140 --> 01:40:35.220
But the only thing is that 1.2k gold lead is all on Guma you she not bought me

01:40:35.220 --> 01:40:39.980
That Ziggs is still quite large that Ludens Echo still a problem when you come to this next fight

01:40:39.980 --> 01:40:47.980
Exactly, and that is only going to be exacerbated if HLE takes control of the topside river first when it comes to this rift herald that we're talking about.

01:40:47.980 --> 01:40:54.980
Huffing to approach a rift herald that is protected by Guma-Yushi, and the zone control that Ziggs provides is a very tall task for Lyon as Dokla,

01:40:54.980 --> 01:41:01.980
trapped underneath the tier one turret up here, it's a four man play, coming out from HLE, and it's way too easy.

01:41:01.980 --> 01:41:06.980
Kanavi takes the kill, Dokla goes down, and Guma-Yushi is going to put in work on the turret,

01:41:06.980 --> 01:41:10.040
Bringing it potentially low enough for a satchel charge here soon

01:41:10.040 --> 01:41:15.760
I wonder if there is an angle though for Lyon to try to play this now with no mega inferno bomb with no Hextech ultimatum

01:41:15.760 --> 01:41:19.040
With no cataclysm available those are some pretty big ults and

01:41:19.800 --> 01:41:26.020
Where's not really any backup here until inspired can wrap around behind but Knav is there to cover so I don't think this is gonna be much

01:41:26.020 --> 01:41:29.380
Of a play. Yeah, I was literally on an island there was not gonna have any sort of support there

01:41:29.380 --> 01:41:32.260
So he ends up just kind of forcing Gumi Uchi back still though

01:41:32.260 --> 01:41:36.600
This is what HLE have been so devastating they're doing when they have this six is constantly shifting

01:41:36.600 --> 01:41:43.120
Gumiuchi around the map looking for these quick plays to take down turret plates only a single plate name standing on that turn in the top side

01:41:43.120 --> 01:41:47.260
And Gumiuchi just gonna roll mid to pick up the wave and we're talking about how close they were keeping it

01:41:47.260 --> 01:41:52.420
Well, all of a sudden it is a 2k gold lead here for HLE just like that

01:41:52.420 --> 01:41:56.800
And that is before our first tower was claimed and that top lane tower is looking quite vulnerable

01:41:56.800 --> 01:42:04.600
So, Alliance have got to try to hang on to this and launch that bleeding a little bit because if Guma who's already so

01:42:04.600 --> 01:42:06.600
Accelerated is able to get up there and satchel that tower

01:42:07.160 --> 01:42:12.500
It's gonna be a massive lead for him and you can see that lead right there in your coin base gold grind just about

01:42:13.560 --> 01:42:17.320
1,300 more than what Mizzurker has on the gin. Gumi-Yushi very powerful

01:42:17.320 --> 01:42:22.760
Needlessly Lord Rod in inventory and you can look at the top side river look at the vision placed down by both sides

01:42:22.760 --> 01:42:27.360
You've got the control wards in the area for HLE side. They got their eyes on this

01:42:27.360 --> 01:42:29.520
But can I be in Delighter down to this bottom side?

01:42:29.520 --> 01:42:34.020
Maybe giving up space on this rip, Carol, to see if they can make a play towards Doklai again before that flash comes up.

01:42:34.020 --> 01:42:41.020
And Keanna, for Inspired, has only just reset. So you're not exactly in the position to rush it, although Line giving good respect to us.

01:42:41.020 --> 01:42:43.020
HLE not able to find that play bot side.

01:42:43.020 --> 01:42:46.760
The reset from Inspired does provide him with the purchase of the edge of night.

01:42:46.760 --> 01:42:50.440
So the extra ability to block a spell may come in critical here.

01:42:50.440 --> 01:42:56.880
Now Zeca trying to protect himself underneath the tier 1 tournament, Iles wanted to approach and just barely survive

01:42:56.880 --> 01:43:03.960
Scatter the weak into the unleashed power from Zeca takes the enemy support down to 10% HP as HLE calls in the cavalry and

01:43:03.960 --> 01:43:08.040
Looks for a counter punch. Goomi Ushi gonna throw a bomb won't get a whole lot out of it realm warp

01:43:08.040 --> 01:43:13.120
He's trying to get sainth away, but Iles is already down. Megan, Fernobov yet again, but one is gonna be traded back by Lion

01:43:13.120 --> 01:43:18.400
Delight him up the tier 2. Sainth's gonna make the kill and Lion have a 2 for one so far

01:43:18.400 --> 01:43:23.960
Zayas and Dokla both arrive into the fight as Dokla continues looking potentially from an opportunity here the ripped

01:43:23.960 --> 01:43:28.320
Herald down to half HP and Lyon have control over the objective and that is massive

01:43:28.840 --> 01:43:30.160
Isles with such an aggressive play

01:43:30.160 --> 01:43:36.280
I don't think HLE were expecting that because Isles was on 10 20% HP gets the flash stun into the Kiana ult

01:43:36.280 --> 01:43:43.000
The Gino opens up St. Derives that was beautiful from Lyon and getting that Herald means at least for now

01:43:43.000 --> 01:43:49.320
HLE cannot claim that free first tower which we're trying to slow them down for on the side of line

01:43:49.320 --> 01:43:54.660
Yeah, I would HLE. I was like oh you're a psycho. You may usually have old you're on free HP

01:43:54.720 --> 01:44:01.400
But he's full senses managing to perfectly synergize and inspired and I love the way line are playing this like hey

01:44:01.400 --> 01:44:06.280
We will trade one but we will get to and it's kind of been the story of how they're trying to go for this just far

01:44:06.280 --> 01:44:12.780
And it's working out relatively well for the lion are going to secure the first turret in the top lane by focusing on that

01:44:12.780 --> 01:44:18.220
because they know that HLE want to go for the third drake now making it that much more critical that Lyon and St.

01:44:18.220 --> 01:44:22.700
specifically stole away the second one otherwise this would already be a soul point situation.

01:44:22.700 --> 01:44:31.500
I mean this is big. They were down over 2,000 gold three minutes ago and they have now brought it to a very slight lead on the side of Lyon

01:44:31.500 --> 01:44:35.100
and they didn't even use the Herald to get it. Now they're trying to set up for Zeca here again

01:44:35.820 --> 01:44:39.900
but unbeknownst to Dokla there are a lot of other HLE members in the area.

01:44:39.900 --> 01:44:46.400
Hey, Lion also floating their jungler and support nearby, Kenabe and Delight spotted out now.

01:44:46.400 --> 01:44:50.400
As Zeka pushes forward towards the tier one turret, Ile's nice using the set-fast presence.

01:44:50.400 --> 01:44:56.400
As now, they want to go in after Kenabe! The damage comes through and Kenabe dies, but he trades his life for its fire.

01:44:56.400 --> 01:44:59.400
Both junglers already in the picture as Goomayushi's going to get caught!

01:44:59.400 --> 01:45:05.400
The public execution lives up to its name! And Goomayushi falls in front of Lion, two for one!

01:45:05.400 --> 01:45:11.400
Gohiyoshi didn't have his camera pointed behind him, a liner taking snapshots at this one.

01:45:11.400 --> 01:45:15.900
Incredible stuff. Lines, patience from Dokla seals the deal.

01:45:15.900 --> 01:45:25.400
Yeah, that was crazy from Dokla. He was up in that top lane for such a long time, waiting and waiting and waiting until they were spotted in the enemy jungle.

01:45:25.400 --> 01:45:30.400
And it's his patience that really did set up. He is way up there in the top lane looking for this wraparound.

01:45:30.400 --> 01:45:39.400
And again, Isles is the one setting up, stunned with that step-by-step presence into Inspire's ult, into the wallbang, into the root from the Zerker.

01:45:39.400 --> 01:45:43.400
The CC is very deadly, and then Dokla here catching him with the ult.

01:45:43.400 --> 01:45:49.400
But it's again this thought of, hey, one will die so the others may live and thrive off the back of it, right?

01:45:49.400 --> 01:45:56.400
You're getting this combo between the Poppy and the Keanna who are giving their life, but then it's the follow-up afterwards that's going so well.

01:45:56.400 --> 01:45:59.400
One lion dies for the good of the pack.

01:45:59.400 --> 01:46:07.040
Excuse me, sir. It's called a pride of Lions let them have their pride in the way you can see the smallest beaming on your face

01:46:07.040 --> 01:46:08.320
They know it's pride right now

01:46:08.320 --> 01:46:15.640
Okay, I mean for a North American team to be able to answer the map movements and the team fight cohesion of Korea's number one seed

01:46:15.640 --> 01:46:22.960
Is a rare occasion right HLE is a team that has not lost to anybody at this tournament except for BLG again

01:46:22.960 --> 01:46:29.940
They swept Team Secret Wales and G2 in phenomenal fashion and Lyon know they've got to be ready to answer

01:46:30.100 --> 01:46:34.400
Everything these guys are coming at him with and finding that pick on Gumi Ushi is exactly what they need

01:46:34.400 --> 01:46:38.680
You say it's a rare occasion, but I'm thinking about to fly question Gen G pushing them to five games

01:46:38.680 --> 01:46:40.680
They've nearly been able to take them down

01:46:40.800 --> 01:46:47.680
Like you are no stranger in the LCS from pushing these teams to the limits and TL had had some good series against T1 before that

01:46:47.680 --> 01:46:49.480
But they haven't been able to get across the line, right?

01:46:49.480 --> 01:46:52.440
And that is inspired goal. He has talked about that.

01:46:52.440 --> 01:46:53.940
He wants to be able to...

01:46:53.940 --> 01:46:54.940
Well, you named the team, though. Yeah.

01:46:54.940 --> 01:46:56.680
Exactly. He wants to be able to get across the line

01:46:56.680 --> 01:46:59.940
at least once against one of these top LCK and LPL teams.

01:46:59.940 --> 01:47:02.240
They haven't had the opportunity so far this tournament

01:47:02.240 --> 01:47:05.040
because the expected opponent top got knocked out by Seagra Wales,

01:47:05.040 --> 01:47:07.440
who they then knocked out. Then the expected opponent, T1,

01:47:07.440 --> 01:47:10.300
got knocked out by G2, who they then knocked out.

01:47:10.300 --> 01:47:12.600
Yeah. And you can see right there, the man's own words.

01:47:12.600 --> 01:47:15.500
I want to win against an LCK or LPL team.

01:47:15.500 --> 01:47:18.600
I told myself I would focus on just one game

01:47:18.600 --> 01:47:21.640
and do my best to win the next game.

01:47:21.640 --> 01:47:24.280
This one right now rests on a knife's edge.

01:47:24.280 --> 01:47:26.440
It is a small gold lead for HLE.

01:47:26.440 --> 01:47:27.760
They are up the single drake.

01:47:27.760 --> 01:47:29.320
So they do have the advantage,

01:47:29.320 --> 01:47:31.040
but the way that the Teamfight plays out

01:47:31.040 --> 01:47:32.880
is going to be so much more important.

01:47:32.880 --> 01:47:34.120
I think it's the two-item spikes

01:47:34.120 --> 01:47:36.200
that are the scariest right now for HLE.

01:47:36.200 --> 01:47:37.640
Like Zeca having two,

01:47:37.640 --> 01:47:39.640
Gumi-Yushi hitting on towards that as well.

01:47:39.640 --> 01:47:41.200
Even looking at that topside,

01:47:41.200 --> 01:47:43.080
like Zayas is quite large

01:47:43.080 --> 01:47:45.640
and kind of becoming in charge of this game as well.

01:47:45.640 --> 01:47:48.120
So I'm wondering now when we get to this next fight,

01:47:48.120 --> 01:47:50.800
Can we have Lion with an earlier reset for Inspire?

01:47:50.800 --> 01:47:53.400
So he gets to the fight first, finds the creative angles,

01:47:53.400 --> 01:47:55.920
because I think it's pivotal to the success of Lion here.

01:47:55.920 --> 01:47:56.680
I really agree.

01:47:56.680 --> 01:47:58.480
And I also think this next 10 minutes,

01:47:58.480 --> 01:48:00.280
the game is going to be decided one way or the other,

01:48:00.280 --> 01:48:04.120
because I think when Syndra and Ziggs both have Zonias,

01:48:04.120 --> 01:48:07.120
it gets really, really hard for Lion.

01:48:07.120 --> 01:48:09.320
So now there is that opportunity.

01:48:09.320 --> 01:48:11.560
If you can get it on Aguma, you can maybe one shot him.

01:48:11.560 --> 01:48:13.560
If you can get it on Azek, you can maybe one shot him.

01:48:13.560 --> 01:48:15.760
When they have Zonias, when they have all these luxury items

01:48:15.760 --> 01:48:21.280
and GA's, it gets so much harder, I think, and the same, I don't think, is really as

01:48:21.280 --> 01:48:23.560
true for Lion and the items that they're going to be graphing.

01:48:23.560 --> 01:48:27.800
Yeah, especially when you're playing in this AP carry role, like, you get so much access

01:48:27.800 --> 01:48:32.640
to gold, getting those luxury defensive items comes so fast as well, so, Gunmeyushi can

01:48:32.640 --> 01:48:36.760
already see sitting on the needy-seed arch rod, he can pop off for the Seekers' Armguard,

01:48:36.760 --> 01:48:40.400
and then see if he has to pop it. If not, great, we go straight for the Rabadons. You

01:48:40.400 --> 01:48:45.680
There's so many options here for Gumi Ushin, the Bilpat, but there's the Herald used.

01:48:45.680 --> 01:48:48.480
I wouldn't say it's optimal, but definitely was made to time out.

01:48:48.480 --> 01:48:54.160
Yeah, they just kind of had to use it, unfortunately, not the most effective Shelly as it'll walk

01:48:54.160 --> 01:48:55.160
down mid lane.

01:48:55.160 --> 01:48:58.840
HLE would love to just pop this before it can ever make its way all the way to the tournament,

01:48:58.840 --> 01:49:01.520
and it looks like that's exactly what we're going to get.

01:49:01.520 --> 01:49:04.760
Herald down below 2,000 HP, no charge into that one.

01:49:04.760 --> 01:49:09.080
It's a nice job from HLE not giving Lyon the opportunity to use the Herald the way they

01:49:09.080 --> 01:49:10.400
He wants, get to the weak, flies out.

01:49:10.400 --> 01:49:12.160
Steadfast presents, fly back to the delight.

01:49:12.160 --> 01:49:13.880
Supreme display of talent takes him low.

01:49:13.880 --> 01:49:16.320
But HLE's support stays alive for now.

01:49:16.320 --> 01:49:19.640
Lyon almost got the pick, but close doesn't count.

01:49:19.640 --> 01:49:22.480
HLE regroups, Delight's gonna take a recall.

01:49:22.480 --> 01:49:24.160
Burst coming in from Guma, you see inspired,

01:49:24.160 --> 01:49:25.600
nearly killed off by the Mega Inferno Bomb,

01:49:25.600 --> 01:49:26.440
has to flash away.

01:49:26.440 --> 01:49:27.880
Kenavi looking to re-enter.

01:49:27.880 --> 01:49:30.200
Zeca also chunked the low half.

01:49:30.200 --> 01:49:32.160
Bullets being traded back and forth,

01:49:32.160 --> 01:49:34.400
but nobody falls, curtain call opens.

01:49:34.400 --> 01:49:36.200
Zeca trying to get himself away.

01:49:36.200 --> 01:49:40.720
Zercher needs to dial in, but no, all four missed!

01:49:40.720 --> 01:49:42.120
Yeah, and that's going to be an HLE.

01:49:42.120 --> 01:49:45.160
Will grab this drag, and they focused on to Inspire.

01:49:45.160 --> 01:49:47.280
They forced his flash defensively.

01:49:47.280 --> 01:49:49.400
Hiles has been so quick on the reaction,

01:49:49.400 --> 01:49:50.720
they tried to burst down to light,

01:49:50.720 --> 01:49:52.720
but they didn't quite have the damage.

01:49:52.720 --> 01:49:54.120
It didn't seem as though St. Orver,

01:49:54.120 --> 01:49:55.440
Zercher could really get involved,

01:49:55.440 --> 01:49:57.040
so it was just the two hitting,

01:49:57.040 --> 01:49:58.960
and they weren't able to burst him down.

01:49:58.960 --> 01:50:01.720
He gets away, then second gets away at low HP.

01:50:01.720 --> 01:50:03.080
Inspired has to go back to base,

01:50:03.080 --> 01:50:05.920
and it is HLE now on sole point here.

01:50:05.920 --> 01:50:11.120
The gold is close, but you give them Hextech's soul, and the combat power is not close.

01:50:11.120 --> 01:50:15.760
I think Lyon's reading that was that everything from HLE was about to come over that wall.

01:50:15.760 --> 01:50:19.200
So he got inspired with the ultimate, I was trying to keep people in check, but they don't

01:50:19.200 --> 01:50:23.200
commit with the lice, so they have to back away, and he had that flash to escape in that

01:50:23.200 --> 01:50:27.880
last engagement as well, so HLE, their patience paying off there, because they avoided a lot

01:50:27.880 --> 01:50:29.280
of that follow up from Lyon.

01:50:29.280 --> 01:50:34.800
Okay, so important to note, right now, Inspired has his Guardian Angel on Qiyana, St is two

01:50:34.800 --> 01:50:37.960
two stacks away from fully stacked on the rod of ages.

01:50:37.960 --> 01:50:40.000
So one big power spike already online,

01:50:40.000 --> 01:50:42.960
another one now 60 seconds out for Saint.

01:50:42.960 --> 01:50:44.680
We talked about how important these zonias

01:50:44.680 --> 01:50:47.360
are gonna be for the two mages on HLE.

01:50:47.360 --> 01:50:49.400
This is the response I feel like from line.

01:50:49.400 --> 01:50:50.240
Yeah, absolutely.

01:50:50.240 --> 01:50:52.400
I mean, obviously the row it's taking over is big,

01:50:52.400 --> 01:50:54.800
but really it's the fact that it gets you to 16.

01:50:54.800 --> 01:50:57.400
You get that rank three of that spell flux,

01:50:57.400 --> 01:50:59.760
the bouncing damage, it's so high.

01:50:59.760 --> 01:51:01.720
And when you get that actualizer that he's gonna be

01:51:01.720 --> 01:51:04.520
building towards next, that plus level 16,

01:51:04.520 --> 01:51:07.480
That is a massive power point for them.

01:51:07.480 --> 01:51:10.100
Rezurker likely working in towards his infinity edge next.

01:51:10.100 --> 01:51:11.680
That'll be another big one.

01:51:11.680 --> 01:51:13.480
Guma at this point in the game, I'm thinking he's probably

01:51:13.480 --> 01:51:14.720
just going straight towards Roa.

01:51:14.720 --> 01:51:16.200
Delight tries to go in for the dive.

01:51:16.200 --> 01:51:18.400
Rezurker gets himself away for now,

01:51:18.400 --> 01:51:20.520
but there's your mega Inferno bomb, and Guma,

01:51:20.520 --> 01:51:21.760
you she torches him.

01:51:21.760 --> 01:51:23.720
Now Zayas has to try to get out of the way of the tournament

01:51:23.720 --> 01:51:27.920
as Isles uses the keeper's verdict to knock away HLE.

01:51:27.920 --> 01:51:29.880
As the remaining players try to escape,

01:51:29.880 --> 01:51:31.240
Isles still here on the front line,

01:51:31.240 --> 01:51:33.120
but he and Dopa have to try to fall back.

01:51:33.120 --> 01:51:36.080
Navigos further forward as Dokla tries to stand and fight.

01:51:36.080 --> 01:51:38.280
Inspired and safe, can't provide enough damage,

01:51:38.280 --> 01:51:40.580
and the dust settles as a one-for-one.

01:51:40.580 --> 01:51:44.160
Zayac's health bar is just too tanky to get through.

01:51:44.160 --> 01:51:46.200
You end up with a pick onto Berserker,

01:51:46.200 --> 01:51:48.800
and the Terror now going down for HLE

01:51:48.800 --> 01:51:50.720
with a quick collapse on the mid lane.

01:51:50.720 --> 01:51:52.320
A very close fight here.

01:51:52.320 --> 01:51:54.960
The goals remaining quite even.

01:51:54.960 --> 01:51:57.880
It looked a bit crazy, this initial dive here,

01:51:57.880 --> 01:51:59.760
but they had seen Dokla on bot side,

01:51:59.760 --> 01:52:02.080
and I guess they see the Poppy on the side as well.

01:52:02.080 --> 01:52:07.240
they see inspired on that ward so they have a lot of vision and they realize you can't respond fast enough even though

01:52:07.240 --> 01:52:10.900
They kill off the light that zigzall is just so much damage

01:52:10.900 --> 01:52:14.020
And I thought here don't am I trying old says while he's underneath the tower

01:52:14.020 --> 01:52:18.880
He didn't have that tea at the flash but it said they waited until Isle's end of getting that knock away

01:52:18.880 --> 01:52:20.940
But it means this is just a kind of back

01:52:20.940 --> 01:52:24.600
Like you just don't have enough damage in the tank to get through this health bar

01:52:24.600 --> 01:52:30.640
Especially with your it's early spirit visage picked up by Zeus like Saint just doesn't have us and you saw there too

01:52:30.640 --> 01:52:35.520
Not a whole lot of value out of inspired supreme display of talent kind of just flew into the tier one turret

01:52:35.520 --> 01:52:38.520
Wanted to make sure that they were at least able to get the kill on delight, but he was already dead

01:52:38.520 --> 01:52:42.940
So lion getting one for one, but losing the turret at the end means HLE

01:52:43.060 --> 01:52:48.140
Still comes out on top in that one and the rabbit on death cap now completed for Gumiuchi

01:52:48.140 --> 01:52:54.120
Means that this two thousand gold lead on the ziggs will be disastrous for lion if they get caught in the aoe

01:52:54.120 --> 01:52:58.540
I mean, that's 2k getting dropped right on your head every time the light throws down the alti

01:52:58.540 --> 01:53:03.480
There's no real escape for Berserker even though Isle's I think did the intelligent build rush towards a lock

01:53:03.480 --> 01:53:05.140
It might even be going Knights Fowl second

01:53:05.140 --> 01:53:08.020
He's gonna do everything he can to help keep Berserker alive

01:53:08.020 --> 01:53:13.860
But that zig's all is gonna be 60 70% of your HP it feels like at this point if he gets a sweet spot

01:53:13.860 --> 01:53:18.700
Which is why it works. Hello with the Camille the lock down into us makes it so easy to just shoot

01:53:18.820 --> 01:53:25.060
Shoot the fish in the barrel and at this point. I think HLE they've enough control over the map to try and keep that pressure up

01:53:25.060 --> 01:53:31.260
You've got Isle too. I say Delight is leaning down towards his bottom side and also Kenavi potentially looking for Saints in the top half

01:53:31.260 --> 01:53:34.180
And if you're lying now, this is a one-fight game

01:53:34.180 --> 01:53:37.660
I don't think you can give up Hextech's soul and expect a win from this position

01:53:37.660 --> 01:53:40.620
It is a goal lead really that means nothing at this point of the game

01:53:40.620 --> 01:53:46.980
It is only 1k obviously the individual lead for Guma is big, but we still have Saint now on three items

01:53:46.980 --> 01:53:50.580
We have inspired on three and a half. This is the fight they must win

01:53:50.580 --> 01:53:56.660
They have to deny the soul if they want to have a chance to continue where HLE really just needs this one fight

01:53:56.660 --> 01:53:59.740
And they could probably secure the abyssirker it must be close to this affinity edge

01:53:59.740 --> 01:54:02.260
He's been sitting on both these items for so long

01:54:02.260 --> 01:54:04.620
I feel like one more way if you should be able to pick it up

01:54:04.620 --> 01:54:08.140
Which is where doklah nicely leaving that midway form

01:54:08.140 --> 01:54:12.460
But it does mean that you've got to get a quick reset as this gin to try and finish off that third item

01:54:12.460 --> 01:54:16.820
Yeah, I I wonder if he is it's hard to know because he's down a full 2k, right?

01:54:16.820 --> 01:54:19.820
And is Guma on just those three items with the tier on top?

01:54:19.820 --> 01:54:20.820
Yeah, maybe he's not.

01:54:20.820 --> 01:54:23.820
So I don't think he's going to get there before the next dragon spawns.

01:54:23.820 --> 01:54:25.820
And there's no real vision here for Lyon.

01:54:25.820 --> 01:54:31.820
HLE with a great setup and are going to look to punish anyone from Lyon who steps the foot wrong.

01:54:31.820 --> 01:54:32.820
And this is what I'm talking about.

01:54:32.820 --> 01:54:38.820
Trying to arrive second to the objective against Ziggs and Syndra is so difficult for Lyon.

01:54:38.820 --> 01:54:39.820
HLE knows it.

01:54:39.820 --> 01:54:40.820
They're grouped up here in the mid lane.

01:54:40.820 --> 01:54:41.820
It seems caught.

01:54:41.820 --> 01:54:43.820
Hextech ultimate will seal his fate.

01:54:43.820 --> 01:54:47.060
and the mega inferno bomb burns his bones.

01:54:47.060 --> 01:54:51.260
HLE, find a critical pick right before Dragon's Soul.

01:54:51.260 --> 01:54:54.100
Blink and you miss it, the river was dark

01:54:54.100 --> 01:54:58.460
and they just lit up Saint immediately upon entry.

01:54:58.460 --> 01:55:02.940
HLE, it's just gone, they've got us, the soul is theirs.

01:55:02.940 --> 01:55:05.540
It's a beautiful play there, Delight setting it up,

01:55:05.540 --> 01:55:10.540
Hookshot Flash catches Saint and Saint gets destroyed there.

01:55:10.980 --> 01:55:12.780
As we see the Dragon's Soul claimed

01:55:12.780 --> 01:55:15.460
and our MasterCard priceless moment of the game.

01:55:15.460 --> 01:55:18.900
HLE now with a stranglehold on this one.

01:55:18.900 --> 01:55:22.100
It is just so fast, so decisive here from HLE.

01:55:22.100 --> 01:55:23.940
They have that one ward,

01:55:23.940 --> 01:55:25.860
and Satan does not know he's on vision.

01:55:25.860 --> 01:55:27.620
Instantly they go in.

01:55:27.620 --> 01:55:30.300
Even with the flash, you cannot escape the Camille ult.

01:55:30.300 --> 01:55:31.580
There's no way out for Satan.

01:55:31.580 --> 01:55:34.460
You can see the look of dejection there.

01:55:34.460 --> 01:55:36.700
It was also such a hard re-entry for line

01:55:36.700 --> 01:55:39.020
because you want to be coming in from multiple angles.

01:55:39.020 --> 01:55:40.780
Inspired is trying to see if you can play around vision

01:55:40.780 --> 01:55:41.820
on the bottom side.

01:55:41.820 --> 01:55:45.120
same when you look towards no clay it just leaves you so isolated for these

01:55:45.120 --> 01:55:49.080
picks and that is the moment where this Camille support shines when she can just

01:55:49.080 --> 01:55:53.680
narrow down one target and blow them up with the rest of the team. Delight on

01:55:53.680 --> 01:55:57.860
Camille is the truth man you've got the actualizer done for Saints Rise you've

01:55:57.860 --> 01:56:01.120
got the Infinity Edge done for Berserkers Gin but for a game where we've been

01:56:01.120 --> 01:56:04.280
talking about this whole time it's never really been more than 2,000 gold lead

01:56:04.280 --> 01:56:09.120
so okay that's not much to write home about but the Hextech soul the slowing

01:56:09.120 --> 01:56:15.800
Chain lightning that you get from the frock on this thing is going to be so obnoxious for lion to try to deal with and I feel like

01:56:15.960 --> 01:56:20.880
HLE feels like they had to have just won the game with that pick in the objective very likely

01:56:20.880 --> 01:56:25.960
I mean the only hope for lion is is one-shotting one of these carries because they are going full damage here

01:56:26.080 --> 01:56:29.240
None of them working towards that don't use at all so far

01:56:29.240 --> 01:56:31.760
And so that is your hope that is your prayer

01:56:31.760 --> 01:56:37.240
But the difficulty has been HLE have never given them angles lion have never been able to get vision around these objectives

01:56:37.240 --> 01:56:42.460
So they're always walking in blind and when you're walking in blind as this comp that has to surprise your opponent

01:56:42.460 --> 01:56:47.980
It's just not gonna happen. You're not gonna find that angle at HLE. I've been turning off the lights

01:56:47.980 --> 01:56:54.880
Yeah, I'll discovered by Kenobi here with a jungle HLE bringing in some backup Kenobi has to try to disengage as Guma

01:56:55.320 --> 01:57:00.740
Just throws I'lls right under the minefield with the satchel. That's an enemy support down

01:57:00.740 --> 01:57:06.180
for quite a while now 25 seconds on the clock as HLE starts up the Baron.

01:57:06.180 --> 01:57:10.640
Lion is nearby, Dokla has his teleport available, the remaining Lion players in

01:57:10.640 --> 01:57:14.420
mid lane. Do they want to try to challenge for this? Inspired wrapping

01:57:14.420 --> 01:57:18.860
around behind the enemy Red Buff as Zaka and Gumiushi try to keep everybody else

01:57:18.860 --> 01:57:22.700
on Lion zoned away. Delight trying to mark Inspired make sure he can't jump into

01:57:22.700 --> 01:57:25.660
the pit and look to steal the Baron. Delight with a hook shot, Inspired stunned up.

01:57:25.660 --> 01:57:30.020
Gumiushi's very low, stays alive for now, side step deadly flourished. Inspired to kill on the light!

01:57:30.020 --> 01:57:38.020
Look at how HLE is going to try to run, the teleport arrives from Isle, he's in the middle of everybody, he flashes away here with the set fast presence, tackling right back into HLE.

01:57:38.020 --> 01:57:47.020
Damage of the wall from Guma Hoshi, Isle is already down, yet again by Gensernobom, forces resurrection, out of inspired, Doku dies, let's say as follows.

01:57:47.020 --> 01:57:51.020
The zombies are going to reanimate, as Berserker is going to try to deal with Kennavi, and Zeka.

01:57:51.020 --> 01:57:56.020
Kennavi is going to lose this grotesque angel, and say as his dead body pulverizes, inspired.

01:57:56.020 --> 01:58:01.300
tries to get away. Zekka, Guma, Kenavi all still alive. St. The only man standing here

01:58:01.300 --> 01:58:06.620
with a lie inside. As he continues to try to mount his escape, Gumi-Yushi re-arrives.

01:58:06.620 --> 01:58:13.260
Kenavi looking to lead the charge. St. Hit with a knock-up combo. A-Chile! Get the 8!

01:58:13.260 --> 01:58:18.740
It was so close until it wasn't Yutaka for a moment there. Liant might have been able

01:58:18.740 --> 01:58:23.980
to pull it off, but Guma survives on low HP. Berserker tries to go for the hold, slashing

01:58:23.980 --> 01:58:26.980
into the wall and it just fell flat on its face here.

01:58:26.980 --> 01:58:28.700
The start is great for Lyon.

01:58:28.700 --> 01:58:30.900
They had pushed out Guma who's playing on the side

01:58:30.900 --> 01:58:31.980
at solo HP.

01:58:31.980 --> 01:58:34.380
The spellbook TP arrived from Isles,

01:58:34.380 --> 01:58:36.660
knocks them back in, and you think just maybe

01:58:36.660 --> 01:58:39.900
there is that chance here, but Guma is dealing damage

01:58:39.900 --> 01:58:42.500
over the wall the entire time.

01:58:42.500 --> 01:58:45.460
And then Berserker feels like he finds an angle

01:58:45.460 --> 01:58:48.460
and looks to flash over the wall onto Zeca.

01:58:48.460 --> 01:58:50.940
Thought he could one auto Zeca,

01:58:50.940 --> 01:58:53.940
but Zeca instantly flash responds back over the wall

01:58:53.940 --> 01:58:57.180
as soon as Berserker dies, that is that.

01:58:57.180 --> 01:58:58.940
I feel like he could have played it slower.

01:58:58.940 --> 01:59:01.180
Yeah, I mean, even the TP from Lars was great,

01:59:01.180 --> 01:59:04.780
but ends up getting the dash onto the...

01:59:04.780 --> 01:59:06.580
Or doesn't have to get the dash onto Zeke,

01:59:06.580 --> 01:59:08.180
which just means that Zeke is able to play it back.

01:59:08.180 --> 01:59:10.740
Dokla doesn't end up with a public execution onto him.

01:59:10.740 --> 01:59:13.580
Tiny, tiny things going wrong for Lyne,

01:59:13.580 --> 01:59:16.580
and what showed that there's still life in them,

01:59:16.580 --> 01:59:18.180
but it may have just been stuffed out.

01:59:18.180 --> 01:59:20.220
And you could see in the damage recap there,

01:59:20.220 --> 01:59:23.140
the big difference between the bottom lane carries

01:59:23.140 --> 01:59:25.460
As Doklan and Delight get into a bit of a scrap isle,

01:59:25.460 --> 01:59:27.720
Zarbati down below half HP, Delight should die.

01:59:27.720 --> 01:59:29.520
Hextech ultimatum isn't gonna do a whole lot.

01:59:29.520 --> 01:59:31.560
As Zeya survives in now with the teleport,

01:59:31.560 --> 01:59:33.600
immediately rejected with the Keepers verdict.

01:59:33.600 --> 01:59:35.520
Kanavi goes in for the match, there's three men again,

01:59:35.520 --> 01:59:37.160
trolling up with the scout of the week!

01:59:37.160 --> 01:59:38.900
But Zorka at least gets the kill.

01:59:38.900 --> 01:59:41.200
Kanavi is down, Dokla's in the middle of two.

01:59:41.200 --> 01:59:44.440
Zekka takes him out alongside Zeyas.

01:59:44.440 --> 01:59:47.600
The double kill for the Syndra, it's a two for two trade,

01:59:47.600 --> 01:59:50.080
but Lyon's health bars are critically low.

01:59:50.080 --> 01:59:52.740
Gumiushi and Zeyas continue their push.

01:59:52.740 --> 01:59:56.240
They could go for this bot lane tier 2, still make it worth for HLE.

01:59:56.240 --> 02:00:00.240
Lyon trying to see if they can find any moment to get a pick,

02:00:00.240 --> 02:00:02.940
but just being turned around thanks to TP from Zazz.

02:00:02.940 --> 02:00:05.940
It absolutely is, and every time you think Lyon might have a chance,

02:00:05.940 --> 02:00:09.540
you have to look and realize Zeca is still alive, Guma is still alive.

02:00:09.540 --> 02:00:11.940
They are ridiculously strong at this point.

02:00:11.940 --> 02:00:16.340
18 stacks on the mages, and now the double seekers comes in,

02:00:16.340 --> 02:00:19.240
and those might be the items to close the door here.

02:00:19.240 --> 02:00:25.000
You're lying, hanging on much better than I thought they would have been able to after the Hextech Soul was taken.

02:00:25.500 --> 02:00:31.540
They're trying to find these picks, they're trying to find these plays, but it is so difficult to get in on a Zekka and Guma.

02:00:31.960 --> 02:00:39.760
Guma is the story of this game, man. These mega inferno bombs on top of Delight's Hextech ultimatums, Iles gets away right there.

02:00:39.960 --> 02:00:46.060
Guma, you see up three and a half thousand gold individually right now. I set it at the end of the fight on the top side.

02:00:46.060 --> 02:00:51.200
Everybody else's damage meters were comparable on both sides and he doubled the output of Berserker's Jhin.

02:00:51.200 --> 02:00:58.920
Goomayushi has been the X factor in this game and now you've got this mega fed Ziggs as you're pushing the enemy base

02:00:58.920 --> 02:01:01.440
and these satchels will obliterate turrets.

02:01:01.440 --> 02:01:08.640
Yeah, I really think this has been one of the strongest versions of HLE we've seen, but the Ziggs for Goomayushi's so safe, he's been so potent on us.

02:01:08.640 --> 02:01:12.400
I'm delighting it with the real, but I'm stuck in behind here.

02:01:12.400 --> 02:01:14.800
We'll see if they can actually finish it. Aintalei don't know yet.

02:01:14.800 --> 02:01:19.400
This is a wild gambit coming out from Lyon as Kenobi has him roast.

02:01:19.400 --> 02:01:21.600
Sagan inspires looking to put the damage here onto the objective.

02:01:21.600 --> 02:01:23.400
Megan for an album over the top of the objective.

02:01:23.400 --> 02:01:25.600
Bobby is going to be claimed out or secured down from Lyon.

02:01:25.600 --> 02:01:27.300
Sagan trying to get himself away.

02:01:27.300 --> 02:01:29.100
Toku is down and he finds the first kill.

02:01:29.100 --> 02:01:31.600
Gumi is caught inside this dead death presence.

02:01:31.600 --> 02:01:32.500
But he flashes over the wall.

02:01:32.500 --> 02:01:35.300
He's going to be taken out from execution coming out from Toku.

02:01:35.300 --> 02:01:37.400
Lyon on the hunt looking for a little bit more.

02:01:37.400 --> 02:01:39.100
But Saka goes into the unleash power.

02:01:39.100 --> 02:01:40.200
Kenobi is taken low.

02:01:40.200 --> 02:01:44.400
Swim back into the wall by Isles and they will execute him with a dragon's roar.

02:01:44.400 --> 02:01:51.600
Seyes and Zaka getting away for now and Lyon find the only angle to keep themselves in this game.

02:01:51.600 --> 02:01:57.900
It's a stroke of genius there from Inspired and Sate sneaking away the elder here.

02:01:57.900 --> 02:02:04.800
Look at this, they use the gates to get out on the map and then they go around here off a vision.

02:02:04.800 --> 02:02:10.200
Sate just pushes out the wave and they have no idea that they walked into the elder.

02:02:10.200 --> 02:02:14.340
They rush it down until he gets here in time, but Inspire wins this fight.

02:02:14.340 --> 02:02:16.900
Yeah, so insane. They give up the mid lane Terran saying,

02:02:16.900 --> 02:02:20.480
no, this is the best way for us to turn this game back around.

02:02:20.480 --> 02:02:22.760
Inspired, guess this might,

02:02:22.760 --> 02:02:24.880
Saint with the round war found,

02:02:24.880 --> 02:02:31.040
Doka being a hero going all in on the back line of HLE.

02:02:31.040 --> 02:02:33.760
What a play from Lyon.

02:02:33.760 --> 02:02:35.800
And now Lyon is looking to do even more.

02:02:35.800 --> 02:02:38.840
They've still got the elder for a minute and 15 seconds.

02:02:38.840 --> 02:02:42.220
They want to try to use this power to catch back up,

02:02:42.220 --> 02:02:44.220
to have a chance against HLE.

02:02:44.220 --> 02:02:47.060
But Guma-Yushi's wave clear alongside Zeca

02:02:47.060 --> 02:02:48.580
is so difficult to get through.

02:02:48.580 --> 02:02:50.700
Now, Isle's going to be in some danger here yet again.

02:02:50.700 --> 02:02:51.260
Just fine.

02:02:51.260 --> 02:02:53.620
They're not going to over commit any tools on the HLE side

02:02:53.620 --> 02:02:54.820
to pick the enemy support.

02:02:54.820 --> 02:02:56.260
And you can see Lyon wanted to try

02:02:56.260 --> 02:02:58.940
to pose for a potential tower dive there.

02:02:58.940 --> 02:03:01.980
But as soon as you hear the sign, oh, they got a backup.

02:03:01.980 --> 02:03:05.180
This guy is still an absolute brick wall.

02:03:05.180 --> 02:03:08.020
Zeus has been so difficult to deal with.

02:03:08.020 --> 02:03:13.700
Guma has been dealing the damage and Zaeus has been making the space on the scion.

02:03:13.700 --> 02:03:18.460
Jhin is now on four items though he's getting towards that later game stage and if he can

02:03:18.460 --> 02:03:22.660
get those last couple items you can actually start to threaten tanks on the Jhin in the

02:03:22.660 --> 02:03:23.660
late game.

02:03:23.660 --> 02:03:30.140
Ryze also building up some flat pan here working in towards that void staff but Lyon still

02:03:30.140 --> 02:03:32.780
it's the slimmest of margins if they want to try to win this one.

02:03:32.780 --> 02:03:36.220
But it's also this stage like there's so much damage in the Lyon comp that if you do miss

02:03:36.220 --> 02:03:40.180
step like you can't just be burst out like even with those onions you may

02:03:40.180 --> 02:03:44.140
just not have a chance to try and pick our use them and even now another

02:03:44.140 --> 02:03:47.820
seekers on towards berserker as well just keep getting rid of these tools

02:03:47.820 --> 02:03:50.220
where you can find those pigs for each other and I actually think it's so

02:03:50.220 --> 02:03:54.780
smart because zigzalt is a one-shot syndrome alt is a one-shot can I be

02:03:54.780 --> 02:03:59.700
locking you in you might just get burst down a G is not going to do anything for

02:03:59.700 --> 02:04:04.660
you no seekers might in these situations so this is a game where berserker is

02:04:04.660 --> 02:04:06.820
saying, you know what? Yeah, I'm not going to get a lot out of

02:04:06.820 --> 02:04:09.300
Seekers, but it might be a one fight game. This might be the

02:04:09.300 --> 02:04:10.740
component that could do the most for me.

02:04:10.780 --> 02:04:13.340
And you've seen where inspired is basically just sit. He's

02:04:13.340 --> 02:04:15.980
constantly just picking off these threats to see if he can

02:04:16.100 --> 02:04:18.580
move into positions to catch people as they set up on the

02:04:18.580 --> 02:04:22.620
midway, just doing anything he can to try and figure out where

02:04:22.620 --> 02:04:26.380
HLE are and those squishy members. Again, they can be

02:04:26.380 --> 02:04:27.980
burst out of moments notice.

02:04:29.740 --> 02:04:33.460
Alright, HLE controlling the top side river as the Baron

02:04:33.460 --> 02:04:39.740
spawns yet again. Scuttlecrab vision secured by Zekka. Level 20 on Zaeus'

02:04:39.740 --> 02:04:45.580
scion. Total Plasm harness already completed. This is going to come down

02:04:45.580 --> 02:04:49.340
to one big explosive fight but HLE certainly still has the edge. They

02:04:49.340 --> 02:04:52.820
absolutely do and both St. Emperor's Urgr are missing their flash. Guma does not

02:04:52.820 --> 02:04:56.620
have his neither does the light but neither of the critical carries here

02:04:56.620 --> 02:05:00.860
online having their flash makes these flights so tough. Guardian Angel up for

02:05:00.860 --> 02:05:06.160
both junglers. Stasis available for both midlaners as well as both bottom lane carries.

02:05:06.160 --> 02:05:13.660
Serpent Spang fully completed for Dokla to try to cut through some of the shielding that's on so many of the HLE champions.

02:05:14.160 --> 02:05:19.060
Lyon are going to have to execute perfectly if they want a chance, but Berserker has already lost half his HP.

02:05:19.060 --> 02:05:22.660
As Inspired is going to be your target up here on the top side. Kanabi goes in after him.

02:05:22.660 --> 02:05:25.460
Inspired fighting inside the Cataclysm, getting away for now.

02:05:25.460 --> 02:05:29.660
Zayas charges in. Iles is about to die. Goobah here, she's already found the first kill and Inspired is locked up.

02:05:29.660 --> 02:05:33.660
He's knocked out of his guardian angel, and Lyon are trying to run.

02:05:33.660 --> 02:05:37.460
Berserker's bullets do nothing in the face of HLE.

02:05:37.460 --> 02:05:41.460
Zeca is dominating, and Lyon is crushed.

02:05:41.460 --> 02:05:44.860
HLE pushing for the throat.

02:05:44.860 --> 02:05:47.060
HLE saw their targets.

02:05:47.060 --> 02:05:51.660
It was inspired when he showed us upway, and the rest of Lyon are falling,

02:05:51.660 --> 02:05:54.260
as HLE want to take it.

02:05:54.260 --> 02:06:02.340
Berserker is nothing but a golden trophy for the LCK number one seed all five players stand tall

02:06:02.420 --> 02:06:04.420
They will march to the nexus

02:06:04.420 --> 02:06:11.220
They will bulldoze the nexus turrets and after a 39 minute battle HLE take game one

02:06:11.380 --> 02:06:17.220
What a back-and-forth game one, but really what a performance from Guma desk. What do you think? I?

02:06:18.380 --> 02:06:21.060
Think I just saw Lions heartbreak in

02:06:21.060 --> 02:06:26.380
In 4K, unfortunately, they fought their way back into this one,

02:06:26.380 --> 02:06:30.060
but HLE did not waver and brought it home nonetheless.

02:06:30.060 --> 02:06:32.180
That elder, though, oh my goodness,

02:06:32.180 --> 02:06:36.060
bringing the excitement into a game that is basically lost.

02:06:36.060 --> 02:06:38.420
It's like Inspire says, OK, if the game is cooked,

02:06:38.420 --> 02:06:40.060
now it's time to get creative and flip,

02:06:40.060 --> 02:06:42.100
and we got to cook something up ourselves.

02:06:42.100 --> 02:06:44.860
Definitely coping, but it's going to lose game one.

02:06:44.860 --> 02:06:47.860
I don't mind losing like this, because I personally

02:06:47.860 --> 02:06:50.180
didn't love the draft, didn't love the start of the game,

02:06:50.180 --> 02:06:53.700
But I loved how much Lyon made HLE work for it.

02:06:53.700 --> 02:06:57.140
And we can see here how kind of close some of these fights

02:06:57.140 --> 02:06:57.700
actually were.

02:06:57.700 --> 02:07:00.020
I got to say, I was a little bit bamboozled

02:07:00.020 --> 02:07:02.180
by the decision-making from HLE here.

02:07:02.180 --> 02:07:04.660
I really think this should have been a home run from Lyon.

02:07:04.660 --> 02:07:06.260
What goes wrong in this fight?

02:07:06.260 --> 02:07:06.900
Well, this.

02:07:06.900 --> 02:07:07.580
I mean, this.

02:07:07.580 --> 02:07:09.100
OK.

02:07:09.100 --> 02:07:10.140
I was like, it's coming.

02:07:10.140 --> 02:07:10.620
It's coming.

02:07:10.620 --> 02:07:15.180
Yeah, Berserker Flash over the wall kind of ends up deciding it.

02:07:15.180 --> 02:07:20.180
For me, it started with, like you mentioned the draft chat,

02:07:20.580 --> 02:07:23.080
and it started with the early game,

02:07:23.080 --> 02:07:24.620
and every second counts,

02:07:24.620 --> 02:07:26.600
and thanks to the Reliable System Network,

02:07:26.600 --> 02:07:30.380
Kanabi was on the map so, so early in this,

02:07:30.380 --> 02:07:32.860
and this is what I was talking about.

02:07:32.860 --> 02:07:37.060
With this Jarvan 4 pick, he sees the angle on bot

02:07:37.060 --> 02:07:42.060
immediately, goes down, gets first blood for his bot lane.

02:07:42.100 --> 02:07:44.220
This sets up, I talked about how dangerous

02:07:44.220 --> 02:07:49.160
this zig-zigs picture. In the hands of Guma Yuchi, I also really love this play on top

02:07:49.160 --> 02:07:56.500
side. Delight had immediate Rome timer on level 4 before this to actually blow Doku's

02:07:56.500 --> 02:08:02.380
flash prior to this play. And if you want to beat HLE, even though it did get really,

02:08:02.380 --> 02:08:07.540
really shaky in some of those mid to late game teamfights, you need to stop Kanavi from

02:08:07.540 --> 02:08:11.580
getting his lanes ahead. Because Guma just took over this game on zig.

02:08:11.580 --> 02:08:15.820
he did it was kind of unstoppable and this is one of the nice things about fearless draft because

02:08:16.380 --> 02:08:21.900
when i saw this i did think h3 was going to win i thought they had an immaculate draft plan so they

02:08:21.900 --> 02:08:27.660
still managed to get the zig spot but more importantly the scion people have been hating on scion

02:08:27.660 --> 02:08:31.340
because it was zero nine at world that doesn't mean it's a bad champion that means it wasn't

02:08:31.340 --> 02:08:36.620
getting picked by the good teams or on the right slots but right here when i think about like

02:08:36.620 --> 02:08:41.460
what Dokla's goal was, and it's like, I need to hold on against Zeus.

02:08:41.460 --> 02:08:44.900
If you hold on against Sion, he becomes an absolute monster.

02:08:44.900 --> 02:08:50.340
So just the fact that Lyon, I feel like, picked things that needed to accelerate the game,

02:08:50.940 --> 02:08:54.040
and then HLE's the ones that picked things for a later game,

02:08:54.040 --> 02:08:58.040
ended up favoring HLE. It was like a nice pivot in the draft that I think really favored them.

02:08:58.040 --> 02:09:00.780
Well, I really liked the Camille on top of the Jarvan,

02:09:00.780 --> 02:09:05.620
because Emily, if you're starting out and we have priority for Kenavi versus Inspired,

02:09:05.620 --> 02:09:09.980
Jarvan is one of the most proactive and early game junglers where you have a lot of options

02:09:09.980 --> 02:09:12.380
And if you have a Camille with you you can create so many things

02:09:12.380 --> 02:09:17.300
So the first game towards bottom side and then the second one on top side where you have the Camille going up there early

02:09:17.300 --> 02:09:24.100
Too, you know, you have to have a lot of options early on to get them going and then we get to this despite that

02:09:24.340 --> 02:09:27.420
Still the goal is pretty close for a very long

02:09:28.180 --> 02:09:33.300
Close but is that is that what we're gonna walk away with here? Like how do they make it not close?

02:09:33.300 --> 02:09:39.540
I hope that the fact that they made this game so hard gives them confidence to pick more scaling

02:09:39.540 --> 02:09:43.100
Because I think they all into the early game, so they didn't get blown out. They said, okay

02:09:43.100 --> 02:09:45.740
We didn't get blown out now. Let's play our game

02:09:45.740 --> 02:09:51.460
They can play as rule because ziggs is gone. They can go back to work off them here. Oh inspired. He's reviewing already

02:09:53.460 --> 02:09:58.180
He doesn't hold his words back, so he'll be he'll be firing up his team into game two

02:09:58.180 --> 02:10:01.220
Let's see what we get if lion can fight back after this

02:12:03.300 --> 02:12:23.540
of the offseason blues once world is over? Fear not, because League of Legends is coming

02:12:23.540 --> 02:12:28.700
to the very first eSports Nations Cup, where players split from their clubs and compete

02:12:28.700 --> 02:12:35.260
for national pride. Will China test every limit imaginable? Will South Korea turn every

02:12:35.260 --> 02:12:41.140
game into a macro masterclass? Will EU and NA actually play in the correct lengths? The

02:12:41.140 --> 02:12:47.620
final event of the year is not to be missed. Esports Nation's Cup 2026. See you in Riyadh.

02:13:28.700 --> 02:13:50.420
in

02:13:50.420 --> 02:13:55.780
eSports legendary moments demand speed, scale and soul.

02:13:55.780 --> 02:14:02.380
and fans bring to heart. Technology brings it to life. Every frame, every stat, every

02:14:02.380 --> 02:14:08.820
decisive play. In partnership with League of Legends eSports, we're driving digital innovation

02:14:08.820 --> 02:14:15.260
that empowers the eSports ecosystem to keep expanding. So players can focus on the game

02:14:15.260 --> 02:14:18.620
and fans can focus on the moment.

02:14:19.620 --> 02:14:26.620
Times like this are where star players shine and new legends step up.

02:14:26.620 --> 02:14:33.620
Their legacies are built and dreams are either realized or ripped apart.

02:14:33.620 --> 02:14:35.620
He's killed off and died!

02:14:35.620 --> 02:14:39.620
He cannot stand the plague out of an expert showing

02:14:39.620 --> 02:14:41.620
the truth about time!

02:14:49.620 --> 02:14:51.620
When I was a player,

02:14:51.620 --> 02:14:53.620
if I was to like make a misplay,

02:14:53.620 --> 02:14:54.620
maybe it's my mouse,

02:14:54.620 --> 02:14:55.620
maybe it's my armrest,

02:14:55.620 --> 02:14:57.620
something feels wrong.

02:14:57.620 --> 02:14:59.620
If you were at home, you wouldn't do that.

02:14:59.620 --> 02:15:01.620
The infinite precision armrest is part of the

02:15:01.620 --> 02:15:04.500
the largest you can let on stage standard initiative,

02:15:04.500 --> 02:15:07.220
aim to bring your home or training room settings

02:15:07.220 --> 02:15:08.700
to the tournament stage.

02:15:31.620 --> 02:15:38.620
Red Bull gives you wings.

02:16:31.620 --> 02:16:37.620
Hey, what's up, Paul?

02:16:37.620 --> 02:16:40.620
Think I figured it out, Andre?

02:16:40.620 --> 02:16:42.620
I figured it out.

02:16:42.620 --> 02:16:45.620
A way to go back.

02:16:45.620 --> 02:16:47.620
Back where?

02:16:47.620 --> 02:16:49.620
It's not where.

02:16:49.620 --> 02:16:51.620
It's when. It's all right here.

02:16:51.620 --> 02:16:55.620
I mean, figure out when. When is it, you know?

02:16:55.620 --> 02:16:57.620
Let me ask you this, Andre.

02:16:57.620 --> 02:16:59.620
What is lead to you?

02:16:59.620 --> 02:17:01.620
Is it season one?

02:17:01.620 --> 02:17:02.620
Is it season four?

02:17:02.620 --> 02:17:05.060
Could it been season two when we started having

02:17:05.060 --> 02:17:06.060
with Jungle Path-ing?

02:17:06.060 --> 02:17:07.940
Could it be when we had Heart of Gold?

02:17:07.940 --> 02:17:09.220
It was a shell.

02:17:09.220 --> 02:17:10.460
Why was it named Heart of Gold?

02:17:10.460 --> 02:17:12.660
It could be anything that we want.

02:17:12.660 --> 02:17:14.740
I get it, Paul, but I really don't think.

02:17:14.740 --> 02:17:16.500
Two shens in the game?

02:17:16.500 --> 02:17:19.860
Is it season, is it OG beta when there was 40 champions?

02:17:19.860 --> 02:17:20.700
Look at Lux.

02:17:20.700 --> 02:17:22.220
Look at the way she used to look.

02:17:22.220 --> 02:17:26.220
It could be any of these things, Andre.

02:17:26.220 --> 02:17:29.060
I mean, what kind of like, fight old gripes again?

02:17:29.060 --> 02:17:29.900
Pretty good.

02:17:29.900 --> 02:17:31.980
But if we went back to that time,

02:17:31.980 --> 02:17:33.980
it could be any of those times.

02:17:33.980 --> 02:17:35.340
Be a lot of fun.

02:17:35.340 --> 02:17:37.500
What would you call this thing if we did it though?

02:17:37.500 --> 02:17:38.340
Classics.

02:17:38.340 --> 02:17:39.260
No, we're done with that.

02:17:39.260 --> 02:17:41.340
All right, okay, old league.

02:17:41.340 --> 02:17:42.340
Who's that even for?

02:17:44.300 --> 02:17:46.220
Your favorite league.

02:17:50.620 --> 02:17:51.660
Okay, I think I got it.

02:17:51.660 --> 02:17:52.500
League.

02:17:53.460 --> 02:17:54.300
Classic.

02:17:59.060 --> 02:18:01.060
You

02:18:29.060 --> 02:18:52.040
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to MSI 2026.

02:18:52.040 --> 02:18:57.180
There are only two best of fives remaining before we crown our MSI champion, PLG awaits

02:18:57.180 --> 02:19:03.340
in the finals tomorrow and we are now one game into our best of five between Lion and HLE

02:19:03.340 --> 02:19:09.100
to see who gets to face them. Lion managed to keep it close for a long time in this first game

02:19:09.100 --> 02:19:14.380
but HLE's superior cohesion and team fighting brought them the win. And it's not mounting your

02:19:14.380 --> 02:19:19.260
screen right there that was able to do it. These ziggs working wonders for Goomayushi. It just

02:19:19.260 --> 02:19:23.260
fits so well into his playstyle right? Like hey I'm fine to just be left on my own. I'll clear the

02:19:23.260 --> 02:19:27.060
the waves and I'll just be an absolute menace when we get to those teamfights and honestly

02:19:27.060 --> 02:19:31.300
he was taking towers, he was taking kills, he was taking everything from Lyon it felt

02:19:31.300 --> 02:19:32.660
like in that first game.

02:19:32.660 --> 02:19:34.100
And he was the gold lead, right?

02:19:34.100 --> 02:19:37.940
You know he was the advantage and he was making it work so you can call him Weekside

02:19:37.940 --> 02:19:41.500
King, you can call him whatever you want but he was the one beating Lyon's butts in those

02:19:41.500 --> 02:19:42.500
teamfights.

02:19:42.500 --> 02:19:46.060
You know one shotting people with the ult playing really well moving around the map.

02:19:46.060 --> 02:19:48.220
But Lyon definitely came in with some good prep.

02:19:48.220 --> 02:19:53.100
They have a clear idea that they are gonna go aggressive, they are gonna go a bit spicy

02:19:53.100 --> 02:19:57.300
I like the poppy as that answer to the Camille and we'll see what they have for us in the second game

02:19:57.300 --> 02:20:04.180
All right second time in the champ select presented by HyperX as we do have the Varus the vein and the Bard banned out by HLE

02:20:04.180 --> 02:20:09.300
Lion responding by banning out the Jace the Vi and the NAR. Yeah, I like the respect given to all of us

02:20:09.300 --> 02:20:13.540
Not far to yesterday was clean and I think it's something where he can be active on the map

02:20:13.540 --> 02:20:15.020
Or you knocked her both up

02:20:15.020 --> 02:20:18.020
So the team's gonna have to decide which do you want because very

02:20:18.020 --> 02:20:22.980
very unlikely that HLE would want to give over both of those two Lyons. So you can have

02:20:22.980 --> 02:20:27.180
to make that call. Do we prefer Nocturne? I think most teams do like Nocturne because

02:20:27.180 --> 02:20:31.980
of the pairings with champions like Aurora that are really prevalent in the meta.

02:20:31.980 --> 02:20:34.940
Also very good at attacking the Orianna in the side lane when they're going for that

02:20:34.940 --> 02:20:39.540
setup. So I think that's why we see the Nocturne first and gives that opportunity then. Try

02:20:39.540 --> 02:20:43.260
and play for these one three ones and have that back up. That it'll shadow in the pocket

02:20:43.260 --> 02:20:44.260
to help you out.

02:20:44.260 --> 02:20:51.260
And now I'm kind of thinking about things like potential of, you know, like Wukong Nocturne and Wukong plus Orianna,

02:20:51.260 --> 02:20:53.720
you know, things that are kind of like team fight explosive.

02:20:53.720 --> 02:20:54.720
Rumble open as well.

02:20:54.720 --> 02:20:55.720
Or more line.

02:20:55.720 --> 02:20:56.720
You could look towards that.

02:20:56.720 --> 02:21:03.220
It might just be Karma Ezreal, which would, you know, surely there's no way we're not going to pick Ori, though.

02:21:04.420 --> 02:21:04.920
Wow.

02:21:04.920 --> 02:21:05.620
There is.

02:21:06.120 --> 02:21:07.860
Ezreal and Lee Sin locked in instead.

02:21:07.860 --> 02:21:10.020
Oh, you know what they're doing is they want to play Kali into it.

02:21:10.020 --> 02:21:10.520
Yeah.

02:21:10.520 --> 02:21:11.760
I think St. wants the melee matchup.

02:21:11.760 --> 02:21:22.400
He's saying, you play the Orianna, I dare you, I'm going to pick a melee match up into it, and they're going to try to just bet it on that, I mean, which obviously is a high risk, no one gives over Nocturne plus Ori.

02:21:22.400 --> 02:21:34.120
But they're already picking champions that are like, we're no longer there when you do the Shockwave, right? Like, Lee Sin dashes out, the Ezreal has that arcane shift, like, trying to time that combo, looking kind of difficult with the champions that I see on the screen.

02:21:34.120 --> 02:21:41.160
So it does feel like that's going to be the call here from Lyon, gets Hector to pick he's comfortable with, and trying to avoid that combo to begin with.

02:21:41.160 --> 02:21:46.800
You know, I mostly really respect it because this is obviously pretty risky. This is considered the best

02:21:47.360 --> 02:21:53.040
Mid jungle duo on the patch, but by giving it you can have a pre-prep draft for it

02:21:53.040 --> 02:21:56.560
You can know exactly what the game plan is how you want to play around it

02:21:56.560 --> 02:21:59.760
And you can look to really punished in that way

02:21:59.840 --> 02:22:05.800
And that's what you talked about in game one right inspired himself saying but I'm up against a team that I think is better than us

02:22:05.800 --> 02:22:07.160
We have to play risky

02:22:07.160 --> 02:22:13.060
We have to take these gambles and they're doing it here in the draft third pick for HLE will be the misfortune. I

02:22:14.120 --> 02:22:19.160
Feel like it's probably a callee, but there is a possibility of going a different angle to his Silas has been great

02:22:19.160 --> 02:22:23.480
His Yone is good. I would be surprised if it is just kind of like standard control mage

02:22:23.480 --> 02:22:26.500
I think it is going to be a melee champion. I think they're gonna look aggressive

02:22:27.000 --> 02:22:30.400
Unless they want to prioritize support, but I just can't see it. There's the callee

02:22:30.400 --> 02:22:34.000
Yeah, I prefer the Akali over the Silas because I'm not over the PTSD from yesterday

02:22:34.000 --> 02:22:37.600
So, the Akali feels a little bit better to me in this position.

02:22:37.600 --> 02:22:41.200
It works very well with kind of like, Lee Sin wanted to jump in on top of Targus,

02:22:41.200 --> 02:22:44.800
the Akali there to help assassinate, very threatening in the side lane as well.

02:22:44.800 --> 02:22:45.600
I think it's a good option.

02:22:45.600 --> 02:22:47.840
Yeah, no, I agree. I mean, this is what they were setting up for,

02:22:47.840 --> 02:22:50.320
you know, as I mentioned when they let that worry through.

02:22:50.320 --> 02:22:52.240
And now the question is, you know, what do you ban?

02:22:52.240 --> 02:22:55.120
I'm kind of thinking it supports Targaday for both sides, potentially here.

02:22:55.120 --> 02:22:58.080
You know, do you want to ban away something like a Nautilus or a Rel?

02:22:58.080 --> 02:23:00.880
It's actually denying, you know, that combo with EMF.

02:23:00.880 --> 02:23:05.120
Obviously, HLE, I don't think, is going to want to give over things like Karma and Niko.

02:23:05.120 --> 02:23:07.040
Those would be the two obvious ones for me.

02:23:07.040 --> 02:23:10.080
So it feels like you are trying to deny the best support pairings.

02:23:10.080 --> 02:23:12.800
Well, I've seen HLE take the NF.

02:23:12.800 --> 02:23:16.080
They're still very happy to have to like go for this heavy roaming style as well.

02:23:16.080 --> 02:23:19.840
Basically saying, look, we've got the ultimate on the NF to use as wave clear.

02:23:19.840 --> 02:23:23.760
We can leave Guru, she's down in that bot lane and still keep to like act up on the map.

02:23:23.760 --> 02:23:27.200
So I am curious if they are still looking, which is the Nautilus band away,

02:23:27.200 --> 02:23:31.360
or if they still see one of these like funky early map presence supports coming through.

02:23:31.360 --> 02:23:34.320
Yeah, I mean it's true. Obviously Bard can have some anti-standard energy,

02:23:34.320 --> 02:23:37.600
but Bard can also sometimes set it up where you throw down that Bard, you shockwave off it.

02:23:37.600 --> 02:23:41.680
That's obviously a good end-out though. So it'd be curious to see where he wants to go.

02:23:41.680 --> 02:23:43.280
Rail Nautilus, those are two I expected.

02:23:43.280 --> 02:23:44.160
You're three for three.

02:23:44.160 --> 02:23:47.120
Nico is the last band that I'm expecting. We'll see if we can get the 4-4.

02:23:47.760 --> 02:23:51.360
That is kind of the aggressive pairing alongside Ezreal if you want to play for the lane.

02:23:51.360 --> 02:23:54.240
And Nico is also something that allows you to actually play for the 2v2.

02:23:54.240 --> 02:24:03.160
So they are kind of daring them a little bit on the Niko, which is interesting and makes me wonder if the light is thinking about a different angle and going more towards

02:24:03.840 --> 02:24:05.640
You know, maybe a disengagement part

02:24:05.640 --> 02:24:11.040
I like this call from miles though because actually just answering for the Niko right as the Niko tries to go for the ultimate

02:24:11.040 --> 02:24:16.480
You just headbutter out which is going for the pop blossom and there's little that you can do also still very strong when it comes towards those

02:24:16.480 --> 02:24:22.120
Roams that set up in the team fight as well. So already kind of lying trying to snooker it. So hey jellypiths

02:24:22.120 --> 02:24:25.960
Yeah, it is kind of cool, right? You know that they're thinking a couple steps ahead here delight

02:24:25.960 --> 02:24:31.280
Obviously is excellent on the Alistar. So like you say if they go the Nico that he could get Alistar

02:24:31.280 --> 02:24:35.760
So they take the Alistar so he goes for con and we do have a Nivia top here

02:24:35.760 --> 02:24:40.800
But the Mexican was banned out. That was the matchup that Dope that really did like to play yesterday

02:24:40.800 --> 02:24:44.920
You know looked rough in the early lane, but I was talking to Dope. I was asking about that was a compositional

02:24:44.920 --> 02:24:48.880
He said no, I do actually like that one-to-one. I think that's what I wanted to go for there

02:24:48.880 --> 02:24:55.680
Gragas would be cool. Gragas is something that is very hard to punish in almost any lane, and I'm looking at MF

02:24:55.680 --> 02:24:56.880
I'm looking at Orianna

02:24:56.880 --> 02:25:02.880
I'm looking at champions that are potentially very easy for Gragas to get in on and there is a ton of go buttons here

02:25:02.880 --> 02:25:06.480
Alistar, Gragas, Lee Sin, Akali, Ezreal all over the top

02:25:06.480 --> 02:25:09.920
You are diving in on that back line and looking to blow them up

02:25:09.920 --> 02:25:15.960
But if you are not perfect with that dive you have four melee champions stacked up for a concharm for a shockwave

02:25:15.960 --> 02:25:20.680
with for Glacial Storm for all of this damage coming through from each L.E.

02:25:20.680 --> 02:25:23.840
There is a lot of interruption though from this Braggas as well. Like if you're trying

02:25:23.840 --> 02:25:29.480
to go for this Orianna combo, a cask to try and knock her back or interrupt that in that

02:25:29.480 --> 02:25:33.560
hold, copy the game plan here from Lyon as well. So I really like this last thing coming

02:25:33.560 --> 02:25:38.200
through from Dokla. But again, it feels like H.L.E. got a lot of comfort in game number

02:25:38.200 --> 02:25:40.760
two. They do, but I mean, I think this is Lyon's

02:25:40.760 --> 02:25:45.400
plan right there saying we need to prepare counter picks we need to prepare

02:25:45.400 --> 02:25:49.520
things that are going to be advantageous and we can craft a very clear game

02:25:49.520 --> 02:25:52.720
right I think they knew they were giving over Camille's eggs that's why they

02:25:52.720 --> 02:25:55.720
went early poppy that's why they went Keanna things that they thought could

02:25:55.720 --> 02:25:59.920
attack those champions and here they give over Nocturne Orianna they are not

02:25:59.920 --> 02:26:03.260
surprised that Nocturne Orianna is getting picked up they set up for the

02:26:03.260 --> 02:26:07.400
Akali they get the Lee Sin they look for these aggressive picks here again that

02:26:07.400 --> 02:26:10.440
they feel are going to give them an edge in preparation.

02:26:10.440 --> 02:26:12.920
And I think Lyon's preparation has been stellar.

02:26:12.920 --> 02:26:15.800
The question is, can you execute on a high enough level

02:26:15.800 --> 02:26:19.480
to beat the best LCK team here at the tournament?

02:26:19.480 --> 02:26:22.200
It's a very difficult task to do.

02:26:22.200 --> 02:26:25.880
Lyon, they hung with them there for so long in the first game,

02:26:25.880 --> 02:26:29.400
but HLE ultimately proving triumphant through their team

02:26:29.400 --> 02:26:29.800
fighting.

02:26:29.800 --> 02:26:32.680
Now in this game, the Orianna-Knight turn combo,

02:26:32.680 --> 02:26:34.200
you already said it, Ezale.

02:26:34.200 --> 02:26:37.160
This duo is so strong together.

02:26:37.160 --> 02:26:40.200
and Lyon has got to be prepared to try to deal with it.

02:26:40.200 --> 02:26:43.600
I do like the cask against three utterly immobile targets.

02:26:43.600 --> 02:26:45.720
It means it's harder for them to make sure

02:26:45.720 --> 02:26:47.760
that Dokla can't get the right angle on them

02:26:47.760 --> 02:26:50.800
for the knockbacks, for the knock ins, whatever he wants to do.

02:26:50.800 --> 02:26:52.440
But let's see what we're going to get

02:26:52.440 --> 02:26:54.000
as the minions are about to collide.

02:26:54.000 --> 02:26:56.160
One of the things we see very often with an Octurne,

02:26:56.160 --> 02:26:58.960
though, is this ability to invade early and try and get in your face.

02:26:58.960 --> 02:27:02.000
So with that already having your push in mid for Zeke,

02:27:02.000 --> 02:27:05.480
a push on top, it should make things a little bit easier for Knavi.

02:27:05.480 --> 02:27:09.720
If you want to try and look for these camps on the top side when they respawn a little bit more questionable

02:27:10.040 --> 02:27:11.840
Trying to invade on towards that bottom side

02:27:11.840 --> 02:27:14.160
We would have to see exactly what can have these game plan is

02:27:14.600 --> 02:27:16.880
Insane as good as he is on melee champions

02:27:16.880 --> 02:27:21.880
You are going up against Seca and you are playing that melee into range

02:27:21.880 --> 02:27:25.560
So you've got to survive it is going to be an onslaught in the early levels

02:27:25.560 --> 02:27:27.560
It's how many of these spells can you avoid?

02:27:27.800 --> 02:27:32.800
How good can you play in these trades to be able to you know, minimize the damage

02:27:32.800 --> 02:27:35.800
that you're taking to Oom, Zeka, and get to a point where you can actually farm.

02:27:35.800 --> 02:27:41.300
And you talked about it in the last game, Isaac, but Zeka, back when he kind of first exploded onto everybody's radar

02:27:41.300 --> 02:27:47.600
in the BRX squad in 2022 that ended up having that World Championship anime storyline run,

02:27:47.600 --> 02:27:49.800
this guy was known for his melee champions.

02:27:49.800 --> 02:27:55.700
Now on HLE, it feels like he's really been given the room to develop as a traditional control mage type of player

02:27:55.700 --> 02:28:00.300
because he's got such an aggressive jungler and Kenobi that can give him that extra assistance.

02:28:00.300 --> 02:28:03.360
I feel like if you're saying you've got to be cognizant of that. Yeah

02:28:03.360 --> 02:28:08.800
Well, the other guy that I was keep my eyes on from the last game was Guma Yushi because this guy was absolutely insane

02:28:09.040 --> 02:28:12.960
Taking out Berserker who they used to be on T1 together

02:28:12.960 --> 02:28:19.280
It was Berserker who was training underneath Guma Yushi and Guma Yushi kind of showing him what for with this Ziggs

02:28:19.360 --> 02:28:22.100
Now in a much more traditional AD carry matchup

02:28:22.100 --> 02:28:25.600
Berserker would love to try and show Guma Yushi what he's worth

02:28:25.600 --> 02:28:31.360
But already push on the bottom side and a decent goal lead opening up there absolutely is I mean Guma great on the MF

02:28:31.360 --> 02:28:35.040
And it's gonna be difficult in the early lane Alistar is just useless in the air

02:28:35.720 --> 02:28:41.720
It's kind of just the the pay price you're gonna pay to play with this champ is a very weak early couple levels

02:28:42.240 --> 02:28:45.480
Resurker it's just been so important for the success of Lyon

02:28:45.480 --> 02:28:49.760
We think about them being competitive against BLG you think about the big leaders sauna

02:28:49.760 --> 02:28:52.880
You think about the sipper getting to a spot where maybe you carry the game

02:28:52.880 --> 02:28:58.520
You think about Berserker is Caitlyn against G2 you think about all of the contributions he has had

02:28:58.760 --> 02:29:01.060
You need Berserker to have a good series

02:29:01.440 --> 02:29:07.720
To even stand a chance because his team fighting has been stellar and they really do need that threat

02:29:07.720 --> 02:29:13.320
And for Gumi you see it's his first international tournament away from T1 right joining Zeus on this roster

02:29:13.320 --> 02:29:15.800
This is a guy that wants to show up again

02:29:15.800 --> 02:29:21.520
He's been to five MSIs in a row has not been able to put that trophy into the case yet

02:29:21.520 --> 02:29:26.200
He would love to add that but you have to try not only take down line here today

02:29:26.320 --> 02:29:29.540
But try and take down BLG tomorrow once again

02:29:31.000 --> 02:29:35.400
You can see that even the level one he wanted to potentially go for those Raptors

02:29:35.400 --> 02:29:38.320
But of course inspired to take it and now can I be had not yet base?

02:29:38.320 --> 02:29:40.760
So it is that double roomy crystal five or inspired

02:29:40.760 --> 02:29:45.040
I mean there's not really a shot to challenge him there since can I be hadn't spent his goal

02:29:45.360 --> 02:29:49.320
Dokla was having a pretty tough time in that top lane and he had to take an early base

02:29:49.320 --> 02:29:52.080
NtB back because they have been holding the wave on him

02:29:52.080 --> 02:29:54.600
So he's just trying to get that wave in trying to get it crashed

02:29:54.600 --> 02:29:57.440
And it'll be interesting to see where he goes because he's going storm readers

02:29:57.440 --> 02:30:00.840
I'm assuming that he's at least gonna go some AP, but I'm curious to see you know

02:30:00.840 --> 02:30:06.120
Is it just AP in the tank? Is it like kind of hybrid, you know, what angle does he want to go for?

02:30:06.120 --> 02:30:11.120
Yeah, one of the big changes we saw to Gragas a while ago was the fact that his he has been buffed on the passive

02:30:11.120 --> 02:30:14.200
Which is making him so good into some of these like range matchups from that

02:30:14.200 --> 02:30:19.960
Which is why okay, don't let getting a nice trade in the top side takes two terror shots for the under way out

02:30:19.960 --> 02:30:24.520
Which is yeah, unfortunate. Yeah, I think it's time to maybe church try to go back to base

02:30:24.520 --> 02:30:28.680
So he's gonna start to push this in you obviously wanted to egg him and then you know if you can get the egg early

02:30:28.680 --> 02:30:32.120
You can threaten him with ganks. You can use that pressure to bring up your jungler

02:30:32.120 --> 02:30:33.360
Maybe make something happen

02:30:33.360 --> 02:30:38.120
You know you mentioned those buffs obviously another one that was really really important was the flat damage reduction on the W

02:30:38.120 --> 02:30:40.480
That really did kind of push it back into the meta

02:30:40.480 --> 02:30:46.020
And also that flat damage reduction does scale with AP. So if you do go full at AP when you have that W active

02:30:46.020 --> 02:30:48.580
Of course, you have to put additional points in it to really get much from it

02:30:48.820 --> 02:30:53.380
You can become relatively tanky and so people kind of have different opinions on it

02:30:53.380 --> 02:30:59.100
Oh delight getting caught out for a quick little trade down here in the bottom side berserker and Isles

02:30:59.620 --> 02:31:04.920
Still pretty far behind in terms of farm but inspired is looking maybe for an angle here in the mid lane towards the back up

02:31:04.920 --> 02:31:10.840
Saint close to six, but not quite there needs another minion inspired moving forward.

02:31:10.840 --> 02:31:15.240
Saint has found the opportunity to go in here for the ulti who sonic wave misses.

02:31:15.240 --> 02:31:18.600
So the lion play fizzles line just back away.

02:31:18.600 --> 02:31:20.000
Zeka pushing the mouse.

02:31:20.000 --> 02:31:24.520
It was looking a little dicey, but fancy feet on second doesn't even have to bring the flash.

02:31:24.520 --> 02:31:28.280
And it's kind of be now who on vision is going to be taking this dragon in response.

02:31:28.280 --> 02:31:30.600
Yeah, look like inspired with spotted on vision as well.

02:31:30.600 --> 02:31:34.120
Yeah, observers were trying to show us there, but I couldn't react so much.

02:31:34.120 --> 02:31:46.120
I'm not sure if that was an observer bug or if he was actually spotted the play not as clean as they would have like, you know, they were trying on the initial trade that St was going for to get his six and go for the all in with that gang.

02:31:46.120 --> 02:31:54.120
But now St does have to be a little bit careful here at second has shockwave and has the power to send a St package.

02:31:54.120 --> 02:31:58.560
Navi also working on taking this first. Drake, it's ever so slightly slower than

02:31:58.560 --> 02:32:02.440
game number one. Remember, HLE started stacking Drake's in that first one, five

02:32:02.440 --> 02:32:05.040
and a half minutes into the game. Just about six minutes in here in game two.

02:32:05.040 --> 02:32:08.360
Inspired by Tate level six though, maybe looking at a repeat gank in mid. There is

02:32:08.360 --> 02:32:12.080
that ward there spot him out, so... Oh! Stand about to get solo killed if he's not

02:32:12.080 --> 02:32:17.040
careful though. Nearly taken down there as the airy flies out. Saints still hanging

02:32:17.040 --> 02:32:20.880
on with about a hundred HP. Zeca's at a mana though and inspired, making a move

02:32:20.880 --> 02:32:23.840
towards the mid laner not going to get the chance to do it though because

02:32:23.840 --> 02:32:27.320
Kenavi is still hanging around paranoia is ready to go and delight is also here

02:32:27.320 --> 02:32:31.080
Isles roaming towards mid lane too so plenty of backup for both mid laners

02:32:31.080 --> 02:32:33.720
and that's why I expected inspired to actually just shift to mid because

02:32:33.720 --> 02:32:37.640
Saint was so low trying given that moment to catch the wave but when towards

02:32:37.640 --> 02:32:41.120
the crab has to pull to meet and now it's actually the rotate to Kenavi to get

02:32:41.120 --> 02:32:43.960
that crop top so it's got a little bit messed up though because I think it

02:32:43.960 --> 02:32:47.400
inspires idea was with Isles there they were gonna push out and Saint wasn't

02:32:47.400 --> 02:32:51.680
base but Saints based as inspired hit the wave so now the wave actually stacked

02:32:51.680 --> 02:32:54.560
against their mid laner is pushing away from them.

02:32:54.560 --> 02:33:00.080
Meanwhile bottom side, Gumiushi exhausted by Berserker, Guma using the barrier of his own so

02:33:00.080 --> 02:33:03.640
both non-flash summoner spells used by the bottom laners here but look at the

02:33:03.640 --> 02:33:07.160
farm gentlemen it's still three full waves of a lead for Gumiushi.

02:33:07.160 --> 02:33:11.120
Yeah it looks like the true shopperage from Berserker clipped on towards Gumiushi

02:33:11.120 --> 02:33:15.320
so happy to try and go for the all-in goes as you say Flair is like Gumiushi

02:33:15.320 --> 02:33:18.660
still picking up a lot of the CS, has a nice gold lead.

02:33:18.660 --> 02:33:24.280
Guma, that's perfect, like an early BFsort is amazing for the MF.

02:33:24.280 --> 02:33:27.720
Absolutely, and MF has really strong early laning,

02:33:27.720 --> 02:33:29.680
but it kind of gets worse once he gets the BT,

02:33:29.680 --> 02:33:31.840
because once Guma has that BT,

02:33:31.840 --> 02:33:34.400
you're shrugging off all of the poke there from Ezreal,

02:33:34.400 --> 02:33:36.360
which is why people love this matchup,

02:33:36.360 --> 02:33:38.120
why they think it is MF-favored.

02:33:38.120 --> 02:33:40.720
Once you get that BT, you move the MF mid,

02:33:40.720 --> 02:33:43.240
and now Ezreal is never going to be able to trade.

02:33:43.240 --> 02:33:47.240
And if you do, you're just losing those trades, so you're going to be permanently getting pushed in,

02:33:47.240 --> 02:33:49.740
which can make things very, very difficult.

02:33:49.740 --> 02:33:52.240
We already have that rotation for the Void Grubbs, though.

02:33:52.240 --> 02:33:55.240
Even Isle's using his TP just to get up here to the topside.

02:33:55.240 --> 02:33:59.240
But I do think if Lankan slowed down the pace here, look at the TP tower for Dokla.

02:33:59.240 --> 02:34:03.740
It's nearly there, so Lankan may be able to look for something a bit more,

02:34:03.740 --> 02:34:05.740
especially with Isle's now on this topside.

02:34:05.740 --> 02:34:09.240
If Zercher crashes this wave, then you move with the units trying to vision,

02:34:09.240 --> 02:34:12.240
but HLE are trying to beat them to the punch and start this immediately.

02:34:12.240 --> 02:34:17.680
Alright, Grubbs have already begun. Here for Kenavi, he will smite down the first one.

02:34:17.680 --> 02:34:23.980
Lyon shows up, inspired, flies in, wants to grab this Grubb here, should have no difficulty doing it.

02:34:23.980 --> 02:34:29.120
That one is secured, one for one so far. Iles trying to keep Kenavi away, wants to try to get the stun here.

02:34:29.120 --> 02:34:31.740
Paranoia right back towards him. There's no unbreakable will here.

02:34:31.740 --> 02:34:34.760
Fiala star the Shockwave's not going to find anybody here. Just get full of time up the wall.

02:34:34.760 --> 02:34:38.980
Coming up from KumaYushi. Hanwha Life are looking for some kills.

02:34:38.980 --> 02:34:41.800
They haven't quite found them but Isles is trapped behind enemy lines

02:34:41.960 --> 02:34:48.660
The only thing left to choose is who gets first blood and it's the man with the gun and his hand first blood of the Guma

02:34:48.660 --> 02:34:51.060
You see line try to play it slow

02:34:51.400 --> 02:34:56.160
You end up looking at the Alistar doesn't end up using that auto attack into the spell shield of the nocturne

02:34:56.180 --> 02:35:01.100
But it means that he's been so much time chasing after the nocturne HLE

02:35:01.100 --> 02:35:05.500
Come on mass end up fighting them off and there's little that line can do

02:35:05.500 --> 02:35:12.580
You can see Doklaut just trying to hold on in this matchup and unlike last game the lanes are not going well for Lyon

02:35:12.700 --> 02:35:16.940
We're already at a 2,000 gold lead with only that one kill being added on

02:35:16.940 --> 02:35:22.500
It is just that pure matchup gif that lane gif here as I was decided to go in on the Kanabi

02:35:22.500 --> 02:35:25.860
But inspired is not really in position to help visitors not really into position to help

02:35:26.020 --> 02:35:31.660
Zeka has first move from mid and this just makes it so hard for the real estate to have the damage for

02:35:31.660 --> 02:35:37.660
Even though a nice flash from the shot plate, but Gumi-Yushi's in a great position there with the ultimate end of lasting down ours,

02:35:37.660 --> 02:35:42.660
Hellfire and HLE are able to back away from the play after getting the kill.

02:35:42.660 --> 02:35:47.660
And they got the one group that they wanted just to stop that three group stack.

02:35:47.660 --> 02:35:54.660
Alright, 2,000 gold lead. You already set it as ill. These lanes are bleeding from the lion side.

02:35:54.660 --> 02:35:57.660
Gumi-Yushi's dominant over Berserker. We've already been talking about Zeyas.

02:35:57.660 --> 02:36:03.620
Xeas up about four waves worth of farm over Doku's Gragas that it just has not been a

02:36:03.620 --> 02:36:05.820
successful answer into the Senivia so far.

02:36:05.820 --> 02:36:09.180
And you can see the gold leads at the bottom of your screen and it only gets harder for

02:36:09.180 --> 02:36:11.120
Lion to try and interrupt these.

02:36:11.120 --> 02:36:15.340
Inspired would love to get active into these lanes but against the Nocturne that becomes

02:36:15.340 --> 02:36:20.260
so incredibly difficult he can constantly show up to match you on those side lane plays

02:36:20.260 --> 02:36:25.380
and when you already have sizable gold leads for the individual laners that can only balloon

02:36:25.380 --> 02:36:26.380
if it goes wrong.

02:36:26.380 --> 02:36:28.780
Yeah, and that's the pressure now on the line.

02:36:28.780 --> 02:36:30.540
You've drafted for all this playmaking,

02:36:30.540 --> 02:36:33.100
and you have got to be able to make that play.

02:36:33.100 --> 02:36:36.060
You are down already over 2,000 gold here,

02:36:36.060 --> 02:36:37.900
pretty early on in this game.

02:36:37.900 --> 02:36:40.300
When you choose your moment, it must work.

02:36:40.300 --> 02:36:43.060
If it does not, the gold is going to snowball too far out

02:36:43.060 --> 02:36:45.780
of control, and I think it's going to be an easy HLE win

02:36:45.780 --> 02:36:49.540
in this second game, because all lanes are losing right now.

02:36:49.540 --> 02:36:51.340
But if you're HLE, that's what you need to do,

02:36:51.340 --> 02:36:52.980
is Dokla has to flash away.

02:36:52.980 --> 02:36:54.660
Yeah, Dokla in some trouble now.

02:36:54.660 --> 02:36:58.360
Alzea is just continuing to march forward, going after the big man.

02:36:58.360 --> 02:37:01.400
The flash being down, now put the target on Dokela's back.

02:37:01.400 --> 02:37:04.100
But this is the kind of pressure you want to see from HLE.

02:37:04.100 --> 02:37:09.020
They wanted a decisive 3-0 so they can go in towards BLG tomorrow and say,

02:37:09.020 --> 02:37:11.860
that one series we had, a complete fluke.

02:37:11.860 --> 02:37:14.500
We still have enough in the tank to take that fight to you.

02:37:14.500 --> 02:37:17.740
And it looks like right now, that fight seems to be over the dragon.

02:37:17.740 --> 02:37:21.940
Alright, inspired and lying, are going to be the side to start it up first.

02:37:21.940 --> 02:37:24.180
But Kanavi's hanging out over the back side of the wall.

02:37:24.180 --> 02:37:27.680
Deca also has the Shockwave ready to go, so keep your eyes out for the combo.

02:37:27.680 --> 02:37:30.520
Dokla with a nice knock on Zayas, back into the turret.

02:37:30.520 --> 02:37:32.780
Meanwhile, the T-Flight down here at the bottom side of the river at the same time.

02:37:32.780 --> 02:37:34.180
The Paranoia is already going to be used.

02:37:34.180 --> 02:37:38.580
Lion's going to be careful here, focusing down on towards the junglers instead of Kanabi.

02:37:38.580 --> 02:37:39.980
He's going to die to Berserker.

02:37:39.980 --> 02:37:43.480
The first kill goes over to Lion as Berserker gets a double kill.

02:37:43.480 --> 02:37:47.180
HLE's on the run as Delight and Koumeyushi try to escape Iles on the chase here.

02:37:47.180 --> 02:37:50.380
Find the out of attack for the stun, meanwhile up in the top side, Zayas looking to find the dive.

02:37:50.380 --> 02:37:52.680
And the Dokla nearly kills him off here with a glacial storm.

02:37:52.680 --> 02:37:54.080
Dokla stays alive!

02:37:54.080 --> 02:38:00.880
Xeas is back back in the egg and Lyon triumphs in the dragon fight while Dokla survives in the top lane.

02:38:00.880 --> 02:38:06.680
That is a massive team fight. Win there for Lyon. They get the dragon, they get two kills.

02:38:06.680 --> 02:38:11.680
Dokla survives and Xeas on the top. So even though they can't finish off Gooma or Delight,

02:38:11.680 --> 02:38:16.780
they pull themselves back into the game. That was critical. You get stomped in that fight.

02:38:16.780 --> 02:38:23.980
I think it's pretty much lights out. So a massive fight there for Lyon, winning out on both sides.

02:38:23.980 --> 02:38:28.900
And being able to hang on keep themselves within striking distance. Yeah

02:38:28.900 --> 02:38:32.380
I know it was a little nervous there because I saw Sanko in and was like oh oh he's

02:38:32.580 --> 02:38:38.700
Managed to get himself CC but you can see here doesn't actually matter the arcade shift away is perfect

02:38:38.700 --> 02:38:42.740
This is where you end up with the exhaust coming in on towards the entire league doesn't like at the burst

02:38:42.740 --> 02:38:48.860
But cannot he has gone down inspired in the pit is doing so much work inspired was doing so much work and berserkers positioning

02:38:48.860 --> 02:38:49.660
And this one was great

02:38:49.660 --> 02:38:52.900
They couldn't get any threat onto him whatsoever.

02:38:52.900 --> 02:38:54.440
Lyon had great target selection.

02:38:54.440 --> 02:38:57.100
They focused down the knock turn,

02:38:57.100 --> 02:38:58.080
knocked him out of the fight,

02:38:58.080 --> 02:39:00.280
and then even though they can't get those extra kills,

02:39:00.280 --> 02:39:01.840
it's eyes on the dragon.

02:39:01.840 --> 02:39:04.680
And for Berserker, critically, that fight was huge.

02:39:04.680 --> 02:39:06.380
We've been talking about him falling behind

02:39:06.380 --> 02:39:07.980
this entire laning phase,

02:39:07.980 --> 02:39:10.180
getting both of those kills in the exchange,

02:39:10.180 --> 02:39:11.980
puts him on a Trinity Force power spike,

02:39:11.980 --> 02:39:14.120
makes this Ezreal relevant yet again.

02:39:14.120 --> 02:39:15.260
Ile jumps in after the light,

02:39:15.260 --> 02:39:16.760
but he cannot get enough trample stacks

02:39:16.760 --> 02:39:18.620
to get the follow-up auto attacks done.

02:39:18.620 --> 02:39:22.540
Inspired, hanging around right behind him, wants to really steal away the big cruck here.

02:39:22.540 --> 02:39:27.340
Inspired, and the rest of Lyon now, they found Kanavi inside the jungle, he pops the paranoia,

02:39:27.340 --> 02:39:30.620
trying to keep himself alive, Kanavi down to one hit, he tries to get away over the wall,

02:39:30.620 --> 02:39:34.540
but Sankt is ready to assassinate him, and Lyon finds a kill.

02:39:34.540 --> 02:39:40.380
Yeah, Kanavi tries to use Sankt to ult out, but all he accomplishes is giving the Akali a free kill there,

02:39:40.380 --> 02:39:43.100
donates it right where Lyon would want it.

02:39:43.100 --> 02:39:48.300
Zeca pushing on this top side but still Lyden keeping it close. A couple kills in the lead

02:39:48.620 --> 02:39:53.700
Which is the only thing that is doing that because it has been HLE stopping these lanes.

02:39:53.700 --> 02:39:57.460
But Lyden know what side the bread is buttered on. They end up dropping that wave in mid

02:39:57.460 --> 02:39:58.700
So KumaYushi does get a place

02:39:58.700 --> 02:40:02.220
But they know that they need to try and play for this 1-3-1 around Saint.

02:40:02.220 --> 02:40:05.300
They immediately invade onto the bottom side. They get the pick on the Kanavi.

02:40:05.300 --> 02:40:08.860
They're opening up the ability for Saint to now with the tempo lead

02:40:08.860 --> 02:40:14.340
They go off the dragon fight get control of those side lanes and if line are able to keep up this pace

02:40:14.460 --> 02:40:16.560
This is where you can start to turn the tights

02:40:16.560 --> 02:40:19.720
And we'll see how they're gonna able to execute here because you know

02:40:19.720 --> 02:40:25.860
Dockla he is going AP and we'll see if he continues going you know full on AP because AP Gragas is

02:40:26.260 --> 02:40:32.320
An all-or-nothing champ you either are the hero or you are the zero you body slam flash one shot

02:40:32.320 --> 02:40:35.560
They're carrying knock them into your team. You look like a god

02:40:35.560 --> 02:40:42.400
You go in that cast whips or knocks them to safety or they flash the combo you just die and accomplish nothing at all

02:40:42.400 --> 02:40:46.700
The nice thing is we can look over a cage or to see if he's giving us the boss thumbs up for the Gragas builder

02:40:46.700 --> 02:40:50.620
No, it's good. Let's see how that one's going. So at least you got an expert in here

02:40:50.620 --> 02:40:56.180
We keep double check with the other thing I gotta say is it's only the second Gragas game of Dota's entire career

02:40:56.180 --> 02:40:58.680
He's been playing for a very long time

02:40:59.080 --> 02:41:05.160
And I'm not even playing back when it was that tier top Gragas meta tank meta before that had been nerfed

02:41:05.160 --> 02:41:08.600
So we'll see how clean is he going to be on it?

02:41:08.600 --> 02:41:10.600
Alright, Rift Herald has begun.

02:41:10.600 --> 02:41:13.100
HLE starting up this next main objective.

02:41:13.100 --> 02:41:15.600
They still have a 500 gold lead as a team.

02:41:15.600 --> 02:41:17.600
But Lyon is here ready to challenge.

02:41:17.600 --> 02:41:21.400
Yet again, HLE already have it down to below half HP.

02:41:21.400 --> 02:41:23.900
Isle's here on the side, wants to try to control the light.

02:41:23.900 --> 02:41:25.400
Knocks Zekka back over the wall.

02:41:25.400 --> 02:41:28.400
As HLE try to turn onto Dopele instead.

02:41:28.400 --> 02:41:30.400
Putting a lot of damage here into the Gragas.

02:41:30.400 --> 02:41:32.900
The Rift Herald is going to be secured by Lyon and St. Niles.

02:41:32.900 --> 02:41:34.060
He has to try to get back away.

02:41:34.060 --> 02:41:36.020
Stain jumping in, wants to go grab a kill.

02:41:36.020 --> 02:41:37.220
He gets one on the Zayas.

02:41:37.220 --> 02:41:38.500
Now I'll get the two-man knockup.

02:41:38.500 --> 02:41:39.340
Bullet time on the wall.

02:41:39.340 --> 02:41:39.980
Takes him out.

02:41:39.980 --> 02:41:42.540
Kenobi's trying to get away as his fire goes into the big kick.

02:41:42.540 --> 02:41:44.020
But he doesn't find a kill.

02:41:44.020 --> 02:41:45.260
The searcher wants to follow.

02:41:45.260 --> 02:41:46.340
Gabyushin falls.

02:41:46.340 --> 02:41:47.980
Stain to the middle of everybody.

02:41:47.980 --> 02:41:50.100
Lion smells blood.

02:41:50.100 --> 02:41:52.540
And it's HLE left bleeding.

02:41:52.540 --> 02:41:53.700
Three for three.

02:41:53.700 --> 02:41:57.060
HLE bodies are littered across Summoner's rift.

02:41:57.060 --> 02:42:02.180
As Lion finds the perfect play, the ward is huge for St.

02:42:02.180 --> 02:42:04.820
Because the TP's him into the middle of everyone!

02:42:04.820 --> 02:42:06.820
Yeah, Saint is going to be able to TP in.

02:42:06.820 --> 02:42:09.260
Its eyes on the objective to start things off.

02:42:09.260 --> 02:42:11.500
Velklut goes in aggressively onto Xeas

02:42:11.500 --> 02:42:12.660
and Kanabi tries to turn on him.

02:42:12.660 --> 02:42:14.460
Kanabi was already pretty low.

02:42:14.460 --> 02:42:17.100
The disengage cast bought some time.

02:42:17.100 --> 02:42:20.020
As you can see, Saint and Isles and Berserker getting in.

02:42:20.020 --> 02:42:23.140
And it's again another fight where Berserker is free.

02:42:23.140 --> 02:42:25.380
At the end of the day, it is a bloody one.

02:42:25.380 --> 02:42:27.420
And it is even on both sides,

02:42:27.420 --> 02:42:31.140
but it is the objective claimed by Lyon.

02:42:31.140 --> 02:42:33.220
And that is what is giving them the edge.

02:42:33.220 --> 02:42:37.300
Very close margins here to trying to get even more

02:42:37.300 --> 02:42:38.980
as the light was able to limp away

02:42:38.980 --> 02:42:40.180
and Zac is able to get away

02:42:40.180 --> 02:42:42.980
and Spider looking frustrated with how that fight ended.

02:42:42.980 --> 02:42:44.860
Just couldn't quite get the kick over the wall

02:42:44.860 --> 02:42:47.460
that he was looking for, the flash and little sideways.

02:42:47.460 --> 02:42:49.820
And it means that that terror that was stacking for them

02:42:49.820 --> 02:42:51.500
doesn't quite stand when it comes to the kills,

02:42:51.500 --> 02:42:55.140
but either way, I think line looking good four to six,

02:42:55.140 --> 02:42:57.180
it's still even and you can see the damage

02:42:57.180 --> 02:42:58.740
that St. turned out of that fight.

02:42:58.740 --> 02:43:00.700
The teleport into the midst was perfect,

02:43:00.700 --> 02:43:03.340
but look at the top side, HLE looking for the flames

02:43:03.340 --> 02:43:04.620
and Lion respond on boss.

02:43:04.620 --> 02:43:07.620
Yep, Lion wanna make the move here in the bottom lane.

02:43:07.620 --> 02:43:10.620
Zayas trying to get himself out of that when he has the egg,

02:43:10.620 --> 02:43:11.580
but it's not gonna matter.

02:43:11.580 --> 02:43:13.860
Isles just absorbs the last turret shot,

02:43:13.860 --> 02:43:16.020
makes sure his allies take no damage.

02:43:16.020 --> 02:43:17.300
The kill goes over to Lion

02:43:17.300 --> 02:43:19.380
and they're gonna get the turret on top of it.

02:43:19.380 --> 02:43:21.660
Yes, HLE is pushing here in the top lane,

02:43:21.660 --> 02:43:23.820
but bottom side the turret's already been claimed

02:43:23.820 --> 02:43:24.820
and the hero is summoned up

02:43:24.820 --> 02:43:26.580
to try to make a move towards the tier two.

02:43:26.580 --> 02:43:29.420
Now Gumiuchi trying to push the tier one turret here in mid.

02:43:29.420 --> 02:43:32.300
Doka wanted to clear out the wave, trying to get away for now, but the fear is already

02:43:32.300 --> 02:43:35.660
brought and HLE have found a target of their own.

02:43:35.660 --> 02:43:37.940
They collapsed and find the kill on the Doka.

02:43:37.940 --> 02:43:41.560
Meanwhile, here in the bottom lane, that Tier 2 is under pressure from the Herald and

02:43:41.560 --> 02:43:43.460
Lion's going to secure that as well.

02:43:43.460 --> 02:43:44.860
Doka trying to go for a big play there.

02:43:44.860 --> 02:43:48.660
He held the wave and then ulted Guma into the tower, hoping the tower could take out

02:43:48.660 --> 02:43:49.660
Guma.

02:43:49.660 --> 02:43:53.140
But Guma was able to finish off that turret, so the play goes bad.

02:43:53.140 --> 02:43:54.940
Zeca here pushing on that top side.

02:43:54.940 --> 02:43:59.060
It is a couple towers going the way of Lion, but there's plates going over to Zeca.

02:43:59.060 --> 02:44:04.900
a turret going mid lane to Guma. So at the end of the day, we are dead even in gold back-to-back

02:44:04.900 --> 02:44:09.860
games that we are looking like it is going to teamfights. It's going to be a Hextech soul game

02:44:09.860 --> 02:44:15.060
again, but both teams only have the one dragon until right now. Lyon could be able to take that

02:44:15.060 --> 02:44:19.060
lead. And Lyon are definitely putting a lot of resources in towards Saints. Like even they could

02:44:19.060 --> 02:44:23.780
have moved to protect Oak on the plane, but they said, no, we want to use that Rift Howl charge.

02:44:23.780 --> 02:44:28.100
We want to go for the tier two. We want to get some of that gold in towards this three zero three

02:44:28.100 --> 02:44:33.100
and I think it's a solid choice like there's not really people who can contest Saints on a side lane right now.

02:44:33.100 --> 02:44:39.100
They're absolutely aren't in that side lane and the reality is inspired has so much faith in Saint as a player.

02:44:39.100 --> 02:44:45.100
A lot of their struggles early on in split one in Lock-In were around Saint and they tried to adjust.

02:44:45.100 --> 02:44:49.100
Alright, Doku under pressure yet again. Four man play coming out from HLE.

02:44:49.100 --> 02:44:54.100
And Guma, you see peppers and full of holes. Another kill over to Miss Fortune. That's four.

02:44:54.100 --> 02:45:01.540
That's four and as you say that's the downside of this full AP Gragas doesn't have the sustain ability to try and manage some of these plays line

02:45:01.700 --> 02:45:05.520
We're not in position to cover and now it's doklah falling once again

02:45:05.520 --> 02:45:08.520
Yeah, doklah definitely falling behind in this spot

02:45:08.520 --> 02:45:14.580
But at least he will have the playmaking ability you have the chance to try to make that body slam flash play happen

02:45:14.740 --> 02:45:16.660
But you know back to that earlier point

02:45:16.660 --> 02:45:16.920
St

02:45:16.920 --> 02:45:23.040
You know was really struggling to gel with this team and there was a lot of changes that line and made to try to enable

02:45:23.040 --> 02:45:26.720
to put him in a position where he felt confident that he would be the one to carry the game,

02:45:26.720 --> 02:45:31.760
to not defer to others, to do what is best for him because they believe in his ability to carry

02:45:31.760 --> 02:45:36.640
in team fights, to step up mechanically, and that is one of the big changes that put him ahead.

02:45:36.640 --> 02:45:42.240
Stank going in, looks for that solo kill after Zeca, and he finds it with a perfect execution.

02:45:42.240 --> 02:45:47.040
Zeca flashes, but it will not matter. Stank gets away from the turret, uses his teleport to escape,

02:45:47.040 --> 02:45:50.480
but Zayas wanted to get the revenge kill, but Stank's out of there.

02:45:50.480 --> 02:45:53.420
and it's plays like that that give them the faith here.

02:45:53.420 --> 02:45:56.680
He's 10 stacks on the Darkseal, just finished the Shadowflame,

02:45:56.680 --> 02:46:01.080
got a TP off that, got the Flash and ult off that from Zeka

02:46:01.080 --> 02:46:03.220
and makes it look easy.

02:46:03.220 --> 02:46:05.160
Notice how he held that Shuriken flip

02:46:05.160 --> 02:46:07.080
until after the Shockwave was used

02:46:07.080 --> 02:46:10.360
because Zeka was trying to use that to interrupt the damage

02:46:10.360 --> 02:46:11.920
on that E coming back through.

02:46:11.920 --> 02:46:14.640
He waits after the Shockwave, finishes him off beautifully

02:46:14.640 --> 02:46:16.360
and TP's out to safety.

02:46:16.360 --> 02:46:18.560
And now you have no Flash on this Orianna

02:46:18.560 --> 02:46:22.840
for a dragon soul point fight in three minutes time.

02:46:22.840 --> 02:46:24.760
And that's where I think Glyne can start to look for it,

02:46:24.760 --> 02:46:26.600
especially inspired if you can find that kick.

02:46:26.600 --> 02:46:28.440
Suddenly that Orianna, very vulnerable,

02:46:28.440 --> 02:46:31.200
but we get to watch it again as St. finds the all in.

02:46:31.200 --> 02:46:32.160
And this is what you're talking about.

02:46:32.160 --> 02:46:34.440
So Zeke is expecting the reactivation of the E.

02:46:34.440 --> 02:46:36.920
He goes for the shockwave to try to interrupt that damage.

02:46:36.920 --> 02:46:40.160
St. waits it out, follows on that flash, gets the kill,

02:46:40.160 --> 02:46:44.160
sees the TP coming in, and TP's out to safety.

02:46:44.160 --> 02:46:45.680
And it's fired now, he's behind him.

02:46:45.680 --> 02:46:47.560
Yup, the light's gonna get tagged by Sonic Wave.

02:46:47.560 --> 02:46:50.360
The President is strike ready to follow, but inspired is not in the right spot.

02:46:50.360 --> 02:46:53.080
He gets himself away to safety for now, but HLE is on the hot pair.

02:46:53.080 --> 02:46:55.480
We know they're coming out from Kenobi once going after Mazarca.

02:46:55.480 --> 02:46:57.160
But Kenobi's gonna be first to die.

02:46:57.160 --> 02:46:59.240
Inspires to the line, but Kuma finally finishes him.

02:46:59.240 --> 02:47:03.720
Zeca picked up to the left side, but barely gets away for now until the R2 comes in.

02:47:03.720 --> 02:47:07.400
Three over to the LLHLE, and Isles wants more.

02:47:07.400 --> 02:47:09.720
Zayas tries to get away with a point-blank flash, Ross.

02:47:09.720 --> 02:47:12.600
The crystallized cannot stop states.

02:47:12.600 --> 02:47:16.600
HLE are crumbling and lying.

02:47:16.600 --> 02:47:18.440
Take four for one.

02:47:18.440 --> 02:47:21.060
Make it five because they're going for Baron here.

02:47:21.060 --> 02:47:25.520
It is just the light alive as Inspire could get nothing

02:47:25.520 --> 02:47:29.880
in that fight, but the cast from Dokla finds Gooma.

02:47:29.880 --> 02:47:32.440
They take him out and now they have to pull off that Baron.

02:47:32.440 --> 02:47:34.440
They decide it is a Brits too far.

02:47:34.440 --> 02:47:35.280
The knight had smite.

02:47:35.280 --> 02:47:36.800
He changed with the Unseal spellbook.

02:47:36.800 --> 02:47:39.600
So not having that summoner spell available,

02:47:39.600 --> 02:47:42.200
they decide to back away, but still lying.

02:47:42.200 --> 02:47:43.560
Huge plays.

02:47:43.560 --> 02:47:49.760
Look at your carries, 6 and 0 on Saint and Berserker, that is insane!

02:47:49.760 --> 02:47:56.920
I mean, Inspire has been doing so much carrying throughout this tournament, and now, this is a pretty big misstep from Inspire here.

02:47:56.920 --> 02:48:02.920
He goes in, and he goes for a kickflash just to try to disengage, ward hops out, but it's a carry's turn to take over.

02:48:02.920 --> 02:48:10.160
Look at this cast, knocking in Gooma as he steps forward, Gooma goes up, and this to me is what really changes the fight right here.

02:48:10.160 --> 02:48:13.160
That cast, into the body slam, Berserker takes him out.

02:48:13.160 --> 02:48:16.400
It was also the fact inspired State of Lloyd for so long,

02:48:16.400 --> 02:48:18.320
the shield coming through the heal,

02:48:18.320 --> 02:48:20.160
sorry, the heal coming off of the Alistar,

02:48:20.160 --> 02:48:21.880
then the Sundered Sky proc,

02:48:21.880 --> 02:48:24.360
means that then Guma-Yushi goes overextend,

02:48:24.360 --> 02:48:26.200
which gives that option to Doko.

02:48:26.200 --> 02:48:28.200
Absolutely, I mean, he lived as long as he could

02:48:28.200 --> 02:48:30.240
and inspired having a little bit of a laugh,

02:48:30.240 --> 02:48:32.680
not the cleanest of Lee Sin kicks, I will say,

02:48:32.680 --> 02:48:34.480
but look at the difference between the damage

02:48:34.480 --> 02:48:36.080
coming out of these carries from Wyatt.

02:48:36.080 --> 02:48:37.200
Good Lord, man!

02:48:37.200 --> 02:48:40.520
5,000 a piece on Sane and Berserker,

02:48:40.520 --> 02:48:43.600
that's how you earn your six and zero.

02:48:43.600 --> 02:48:46.120
And what a difference as far as vision control,

02:48:46.120 --> 02:48:48.680
as far as map control compared to last game, right?

02:48:48.680 --> 02:48:51.120
Last game it felt like, yeah, Lion are close in gold.

02:48:51.120 --> 02:48:53.200
The dragon spawns, you look at the map,

02:48:53.200 --> 02:48:54.760
they can't even go close.

02:48:54.760 --> 02:48:56.960
This time, they're the ones leading in the dragons.

02:48:56.960 --> 02:48:58.400
It is a Hextech solo available,

02:48:58.400 --> 02:49:00.400
and we can see in our Coinbase gold grind,

02:49:00.400 --> 02:49:02.680
it is a pretty significant lead here for Saint.

02:49:02.680 --> 02:49:04.480
He has the seekers for this fight,

02:49:04.480 --> 02:49:06.080
which will be very big,

02:49:06.080 --> 02:49:09.840
and look at him trying to find an angle in behind HLE.

02:49:09.840 --> 02:49:13.000
Yeah, that 1.8 goalie to immediately invest it into safety.

02:49:13.000 --> 02:49:16.080
Because if he can get access to the backliners, so little available.

02:49:16.080 --> 02:49:18.000
Remember, Orianna still no flash.

02:49:18.000 --> 02:49:20.880
OK, fighting for the next Drake.

02:49:20.880 --> 02:49:25.120
It's number four, two to one, favoring Lyons so far in the dragon count.

02:49:25.120 --> 02:49:26.880
Saints still hanging out on the back side of the pit.

02:49:26.880 --> 02:49:29.160
HLE stepping forward as a five-man unit.

02:49:29.160 --> 02:49:30.920
Oakland inspired, keeping themselves safe.

02:49:30.920 --> 02:49:33.600
The dragon aggro, but very low DPS on the objective.

02:49:33.600 --> 02:49:35.560
Trouch up garage, tag Zeca.

02:49:35.560 --> 02:49:39.680
Saints still waiting, hiding in the fog, looking for his opportunity to go in.

02:49:39.680 --> 02:49:41.120
Keep your eyes on Dopela.

02:49:41.120 --> 02:49:43.000
If they want to try to make a move, he goes to the Flash.

02:49:43.000 --> 02:49:44.160
He knocks him to life.

02:49:44.160 --> 02:49:46.040
The Reconnaught's about to die, but he gets away for now.

02:49:46.040 --> 02:49:46.880
He with a shield.

02:49:46.880 --> 02:49:48.720
The Protoblastic Knight bites, just burn him down.

02:49:48.720 --> 02:49:50.120
Sankos of the wall goes Godlike.

02:49:50.120 --> 02:49:51.640
Delight's already gone.

02:49:51.640 --> 02:49:54.320
Lyon, they get the single kill on the support,

02:49:54.320 --> 02:49:56.840
but it's enough to earn them control of the bottom side river

02:49:56.840 --> 02:49:58.040
and claim sole point.

02:49:58.040 --> 02:50:00.080
A very quick reaction there from Zayas.

02:50:00.080 --> 02:50:01.400
Gets himself out of safety.

02:50:01.400 --> 02:50:03.600
He was fast with that reactive Flash,

02:50:03.600 --> 02:50:04.840
but because they caught the light,

02:50:04.840 --> 02:50:08.280
because Sanko finishes him off, they get uncontested.

02:50:08.280 --> 02:50:12.560
third dragon here, Sank gets another kill and he is starting to run away with this one.

02:50:12.560 --> 02:50:16.560
Nice mechanics from Sankton the fight as well, throws down that W and Shuriken flips away

02:50:16.560 --> 02:50:21.520
over the wall to get the kill, then use the Shuriken flip back too, so very nicely done

02:50:21.520 --> 02:50:22.520
on the Akali.

02:50:22.520 --> 02:50:28.160
But line now, this is like, they are in such a strong position, three dragons, the gold

02:50:28.160 --> 02:50:33.280
leaves, map control, the ability to push in a 131, it's tough for HLE to come back here.

02:50:33.280 --> 02:50:38.080
It is, but they have been in these positions before against BLG and they couldn't get it

02:50:38.080 --> 02:50:42.440
across the finish line. They need to stay cool, calm, and collected in these moments.

02:50:42.440 --> 02:50:46.440
They need to show that they can actually kill the Nexus. We can see this one more time.

02:50:46.440 --> 02:50:50.440
It is about Dopla here. He looks for the body sent flash. Look how fast this reacts.

02:50:50.440 --> 02:50:53.800
It gets away, but the cast does catch the light. And here's where you're talking about the scene.

02:50:53.800 --> 02:50:58.440
Yeah, Saints ends up putting down the W there. Sherkin flips over the wall, gets the Hextech

02:50:58.440 --> 02:51:03.440
gun by a kill, and then Anegi hops back over before HLE can really respond. So, nicely done

02:51:03.440 --> 02:51:04.600
by Saints at the back end.

02:51:04.600 --> 02:51:11.000
It's always funny to see something like a gunblade actually get the last one since it's normally doing so little damage.

02:51:11.000 --> 02:51:12.300
It just facilitates the gunblade.

02:51:12.300 --> 02:51:13.600
It's actually doing the name.

02:51:13.600 --> 02:51:14.600
Yeah, it's doing the name.

02:51:14.600 --> 02:51:16.700
It's more gun than blade in that one.

02:51:16.700 --> 02:51:20.400
But Lyon, with their 2000 Goldie, with Soulpoint, they're definitely in a good position,

02:51:20.400 --> 02:51:23.700
but you cannot underestimate HLE.

02:51:23.700 --> 02:51:30.800
The team fighting on this squad, remember, it was this baron area team fighting game number one that really locked things in for HLE.

02:51:30.800 --> 02:51:34.720
and Lyon now have to respect them as HLE moves into the Lyon Red Jungle.

02:51:34.720 --> 02:51:36.520
And these choke points are so dangerous for them,

02:51:36.520 --> 02:51:39.920
but Lyon just won a left-sane push in that bottom side of the map.

02:51:39.920 --> 02:51:43.840
But if you end up falling prey to a shockwave into that anemdfold,

02:51:43.840 --> 02:51:46.040
that's where it could be lights out for Lyon.

02:51:46.040 --> 02:51:49.520
Instantly, you know, and that is the power that HLE has.

02:51:49.520 --> 02:51:52.520
You could be 5K up if Delight gets a charm on multiple people.

02:51:52.520 --> 02:51:54.720
They get shockwaves and the bullet time comes over top.

02:51:54.720 --> 02:51:55.680
You're leading me. You're all dead.

02:51:55.680 --> 02:51:56.800
You're instantly dead.

02:51:56.800 --> 02:51:59.080
And that is why Lyon have got to stay locked in,

02:51:59.080 --> 02:52:02.740
and have got a show that they can actually shut the door

02:52:02.740 --> 02:52:05.480
on a team like HLE with the advantage they have.

02:52:05.480 --> 02:52:07.280
And Zeke has gone for a very greedy build.

02:52:07.280 --> 02:52:08.840
Traditionally what we've seen against the Khalis

02:52:08.840 --> 02:52:10.360
is the lack of that rod of ages.

02:52:10.360 --> 02:52:11.840
So you have the health to survive

02:52:11.840 --> 02:52:13.440
in a side lane against the Akali.

02:52:13.440 --> 02:52:15.080
He's gone full damage.

02:52:15.080 --> 02:52:17.240
He wants to make sure you can have that big burst

02:52:17.240 --> 02:52:19.360
in the fight, only the Seekers as a defense.

02:52:19.360 --> 02:52:20.840
Exactly, it does have that Seekers now,

02:52:20.840 --> 02:52:22.280
which will be critical.

02:52:22.280 --> 02:52:25.400
We'll see if he can find that perfect activation.

02:52:25.400 --> 02:52:28.840
As Zeke is pushing out bot, trying to get a tempo there.

02:52:28.840 --> 02:52:31.320
I am wanting to push in and try to knock down this turret,

02:52:31.320 --> 02:52:33.840
but Guma is just constantly clearing out the waves.

02:52:33.840 --> 02:52:36.080
Seeker is available for both solo lane mages

02:52:36.080 --> 02:52:38.480
on the HLE side, as well as for Saint,

02:52:38.480 --> 02:52:41.880
who does have 10 stacks on his now Medjai Soul Stealer,

02:52:41.880 --> 02:52:43.840
really trying to snowball forward,

02:52:43.840 --> 02:52:45.520
find more success in these fights.

02:52:45.520 --> 02:52:47.560
Inspired in Isles, both hanging around.

02:52:47.560 --> 02:52:49.120
If HLE wants to go after Saint,

02:52:49.120 --> 02:52:51.160
they are going to find Lion ready to respond.

02:52:51.160 --> 02:52:54.200
Dockla clearing waves over in the bottom side right now,

02:52:54.200 --> 02:52:55.840
does have the teleport ready to respond.

02:52:55.840 --> 02:52:58.520
Dockla is down two and a half levels,

02:52:58.520 --> 02:53:02.360
compared to Zayas, level 15, Gragas versus the level 17, Anivia.

02:53:02.360 --> 02:53:05.720
This could be a big difference maker in these upcoming fights.

02:53:05.720 --> 02:53:08.560
If Dokla doesn't land a huge value cast,

02:53:08.560 --> 02:53:11.760
like he did on Gumiushi in this previous top river fight,

02:53:11.760 --> 02:53:13.720
the Gragas will not be able to do anything

02:53:13.720 --> 02:53:14.960
near what Anivia can.

02:53:14.960 --> 02:53:15.920
Absolutely true.

02:53:15.920 --> 02:53:17.600
I mean, Gragas is one round of spells,

02:53:17.600 --> 02:53:18.440
and that's his value.

02:53:18.440 --> 02:53:20.240
That's basically all he's going to be bringing.

02:53:20.240 --> 02:53:21.800
Kanabi knocked out into the air there,

02:53:21.800 --> 02:53:24.800
as immediately now coming right back in here with the paranoia,

02:53:24.800 --> 02:53:26.000
but now it's inspired!

02:53:26.000 --> 02:53:27.400
Fightin' to kick her to Gubyushi!

02:53:27.400 --> 02:53:28.600
Lyon looks for the damage!

02:53:28.600 --> 02:53:30.340
Massive three-man knock-up comin' out with a ball

02:53:30.340 --> 02:53:31.600
and a rise from Isles!

02:53:31.600 --> 02:53:33.920
The Zorker goes God-like and Gubyushi goes down!

02:53:33.920 --> 02:53:35.480
Kenobi with a flash over the wall!

02:53:35.480 --> 02:53:36.560
The cast counts out!

02:53:36.560 --> 02:53:38.080
Kenobi under pressure from Inspired here

02:53:38.080 --> 02:53:39.880
to get his the tier one, two, and falls!

02:53:39.880 --> 02:53:42.120
Stain, continuing to dive forward!

02:53:42.120 --> 02:53:44.760
Kenobi is on the run, both bottom laders,

02:53:44.760 --> 02:53:47.080
as well as the top leader of HLE!

02:53:47.080 --> 02:53:49.360
Are nothing but corpses!

02:53:49.360 --> 02:53:51.000
Lyon three for nothin'!

02:53:51.000 --> 02:53:52.440
Lyon get a turret!

02:53:52.440 --> 02:53:53.880
Lyon, goin' to Baron!

02:53:53.880 --> 02:54:00.800
Inspired stepping up massively there the kick flash on the Guma is a game changer

02:54:00.800 --> 02:54:05.600
The Nocturne lives but has no health has no flash has to go back to base

02:54:05.760 --> 02:54:08.220
It is 50 seconds until soul

02:54:08.220 --> 02:54:13.820
They're gonna get Baron and they're gonna head straight there to try to seal the deal

02:54:15.200 --> 02:54:16.400
Saints

02:54:16.400 --> 02:54:19.340
Seekers arm guard was clutch as well

02:54:19.340 --> 02:54:25.640
Kenavi immediately tries to jump on with that Shockwave combo, but they weren't able to make it happen.

02:54:25.640 --> 02:54:27.140
We're seeing it at the start of the fight here.

02:54:27.140 --> 02:54:34.640
So as Kenavi tries to turn, jumps onto Sainz, the Shockwave, the Stasis, the turnaround from his bard with the kick.

02:54:34.640 --> 02:54:37.640
It all picture perfect from Lying.

02:54:37.640 --> 02:54:45.140
Wardhawk, kick flash, Guma gets caught, Ingo Sainz, and Sainz is just dancing around in this fight, playing it beautifully.

02:54:45.140 --> 02:54:50.540
The cast from Dokla knocking back to Navi they can go in that tower has no health

02:54:50.540 --> 02:54:55.140
So it's not safety there. Look at this from st. Dodge is the knockup from delight

02:54:55.140 --> 02:54:59.300
But we are back to live Dokla get spotted. Yep. Dokla's gonna be found by delight

02:54:59.300 --> 02:55:01.420
It is lion with a four and a half thousand gold lead

02:55:01.420 --> 02:55:05.580
It's lion who will claim the soul if they take this next dragon a jelly

02:55:05.620 --> 02:55:10.460
They know they have to stop this say got enough gold after killing a tower. He has a full zone

02:55:10.460 --> 02:55:13.260
Okay, Guardian Angel also available on Inspired.

02:55:13.260 --> 02:55:15.760
Seekers Armguard also purchased for Berserker.

02:55:15.760 --> 02:55:20.760
So both Lyon carries, very easy to protect themselves from the paranoia-shockwave combo.

02:55:20.760 --> 02:55:27.560
St. Clearing out the ward off to the side over here, as Lyon still continue just waiting for HLE to try to approach them.

02:55:27.560 --> 02:55:31.560
Sonic Wave on a Kennavi. Inspired, not gonna follow that one here with a resonating strike.

02:55:31.560 --> 02:55:34.260
Instead, gonna turn attention back over to the Drake, the light over the wall.

02:55:34.260 --> 02:55:36.760
Sonic Wave collides with the Recon.

02:55:36.760 --> 02:55:38.740
The dragon, still at about half-hate speed,

02:55:38.740 --> 02:55:40.100
Drew Sheparage slimes Seyus.

02:55:40.100 --> 02:55:41.740
St. goes in, remember there's no way.

02:55:41.740 --> 02:55:43.500
He already lost it in the previous fight.

02:55:43.500 --> 02:55:45.100
Seyus is about to die right here,

02:55:45.100 --> 02:55:46.580
and Dopela takes them out.

02:55:46.580 --> 02:55:51.140
Revenge, the laning phase, as Lyon killing the enemy top laner.

02:55:51.140 --> 02:55:53.180
Now just want to guarantee they take the soul.

02:55:53.180 --> 02:55:56.020
Zeca wants to see if there's a cheeky steal,

02:55:56.020 --> 02:55:58.500
but he's going to be zoned away by Dopela and Eiffel.

02:55:58.500 --> 02:56:00.540
Then Lyon, claim the Hextech soul.

02:56:00.540 --> 02:56:03.380
Lyon give him no chance at the 50-50.

02:56:03.380 --> 02:56:04.980
It is picture perfect play here.

02:56:04.980 --> 02:56:06.500
They hold their lines.

02:56:06.500 --> 02:56:12.500
They attack Zeus in the side, they catch him, they burst him down, and now it's a full-core press. They're going!

02:56:12.500 --> 02:56:18.500
Alright, Kenavi wants to full-send it again. They're trying to make a move here in the bottom side with the baron, Noya play, but same state alive here in the smoke.

02:56:18.500 --> 02:56:23.500
Zeca keeping himself in the stasis for now. Goal quick goes after Gumiuchi with the true shuffle. Roger with the top. Kenavi is already dead.

02:56:23.500 --> 02:56:29.500
Sonic Wayne runs in, he strikes Gumiuchi on the run. Inspired, changes after Zeca. He needs a couple more hits and he's got him.

02:56:29.500 --> 02:56:38.500
Lyon just aced them! Lyon are in the base and Lyon tears a throat out of HLE in Game 2!

02:56:38.500 --> 02:56:46.500
Lyon are gonna do it! We've got a tight series here against the number one team from the LCK!

02:56:46.500 --> 02:56:50.500
Seyes responds but there's nothing the Anivia can do alone.

02:56:50.500 --> 02:56:56.500
Lyon were down 2,000 gold in lane but they bring it back and tie it up.

02:56:56.500 --> 02:57:01.100
How long life got their comforts, but they don't look comfortable

02:57:01.780 --> 02:57:04.080
Yes, what the hell was that?

02:57:09.340 --> 02:57:18.740
You know who look comfortable there Saint building medgis going deathless that entire time berserker on Ezreal deathless the entire game

02:57:18.740 --> 02:57:39.700
I was so nervous about this draft because they had to literally survive the

02:57:39.700 --> 02:57:42.160
laning phase until this fight.

02:57:42.160 --> 02:57:43.160
Just hold on!

02:57:43.160 --> 02:57:47.300
This draft was engineered to get St.

02:57:47.300 --> 02:57:48.700
on this Akali.

02:57:48.700 --> 02:57:52.140
They seeded the Nocturne Orianna, and they made it.

02:57:52.140 --> 02:57:54.300
They did what Dokla said they'd be able to do.

02:57:54.300 --> 02:57:58.420
And all year long, we've been praising lion team fighting.

02:57:58.420 --> 02:58:00.340
And people have been trying to take the knees out of it

02:58:00.340 --> 02:58:04.140
by saying, oh, they only do it against North American teams,

02:58:04.140 --> 02:58:06.940
but they just did it against HLE.

02:58:06.940 --> 02:58:08.780
And that wasn't even one inspired one.

02:58:08.780 --> 02:58:14.240
That wasn't even the perfect kick, but they still pick up the extra kills because they commit to the call

02:58:14.240 --> 02:58:19.480
They commit to the play look at that. They're putting the pressure on the LCK number one seed

02:58:19.480 --> 02:58:26.380
They're feeling the tension also shout out to big dogs that Baron fight his Gragas my goodness

02:58:26.640 --> 02:58:30.360
He had to play into the enemy again. They use anivia. He's

02:58:30.360 --> 02:58:35.900
Why didn't it bite you know what I was saying the grog is the win lane the grog is ultimate onto

02:58:35.900 --> 02:58:40.360
Gumo and Gumo overtakes is inspired it's what I don't believe they still pick it

02:58:40.360 --> 02:58:46.840
I mean I watch this one in our HyperX reflex replay which is another game

02:58:46.840 --> 02:58:52.040
breaking fight because the goal here is just pretty much even lines even behind

02:58:52.040 --> 02:58:57.480
and watch inspired just hide in the fog of war during nocturnal get try on fields

02:58:57.480 --> 02:59:01.000
get his W shield. And now, while the team cleans up. Look at this, Guma overtakes, boom,

02:59:01.000 --> 02:59:06.840
Doklai hits him with the big cast as well. Wow, St. is on Zeca. Boom, he kills Zeca as well.

02:59:07.400 --> 02:59:12.200
It is hype. It is hype going for it. Can I ask you a question? Is HLE over focusing?

02:59:16.200 --> 02:59:21.640
On inspired, they seem to lose their heads trying to kill him in this fight. I think he was very

02:59:21.640 --> 02:59:25.320
elusive on Lee Sin, and he knew he was out of position. I think that was actually the right

02:59:25.320 --> 02:59:27.760
And he's like, oh, I got away with one there.

02:59:27.760 --> 02:59:29.560
But I want to go back to Emily's draft point,

02:59:29.560 --> 02:59:32.040
because for the series in game one,

02:59:32.040 --> 02:59:34.240
I was disappointed when they picked the Piana,

02:59:34.240 --> 02:59:37.240
because to me, that signaled that they didn't feel like they

02:59:37.240 --> 02:59:39.120
could play what they were comfortable with and outscale

02:59:39.120 --> 02:59:39.960
in teamfighting.

02:59:39.960 --> 02:59:42.480
And then they ended up in a situation here

02:59:42.480 --> 02:59:46.200
with better teamfighting, but three losing lanes.

02:59:46.200 --> 02:59:49.160
And if you lose that game, which was in danger,

02:59:49.160 --> 02:59:49.880
that was in play.

02:59:49.880 --> 02:59:52.280
There were 2,000 gold down from laning phase alone.

02:59:52.280 --> 02:59:54.720
If you lose that game, the series is over.

02:59:54.720 --> 03:00:02.000
they're going home, but when they clutch up from a deficit with three losing lanes against HLE, the early game powerhouse

03:00:02.000 --> 03:00:04.040
that will imbue them with confidence.

03:00:04.040 --> 03:00:10.820
Yeah, and that's why that Drake fight was so so important and then in this draft again, the idea is okay

03:00:10.900 --> 03:00:16.320
We are going to have losing lanes. We believe in ourselves to be able to survive because we have

03:00:16.680 --> 03:00:22.360
Berzerker on Ezreal and Saint on Akali. This is something along with the Silas

03:00:22.360 --> 03:00:32.720
He's just been destroying people with his stat line in this game was absolutely absurd and those early like those mid game fights

03:00:32.720 --> 03:00:36.360
It's 10 0 and 7 almost 30% of the team's damage

03:00:36.360 --> 03:00:43.360
That's a little low be just because of berserker Ezreal and two solo kills that solo kill on Zeka on top side was safe

03:00:43.360 --> 03:00:45.960
Yeah, the men's ice he did it you built the men's ice

03:00:45.960 --> 03:00:53.560
Slaps him with it. But let me ask you the side of HLE then, because to me, right, obviously I'm not as emotionally invested as some other people here.

03:00:53.560 --> 03:01:05.260
You're an important foil for us here. Yes, I do think like the draft in the skirmishes, I know you want to go for the Nocturne Orianna, but Lyon figured it out very fast, what they had to do against it.

03:01:05.260 --> 03:01:10.260
and I am puzzled at some of the decision-making of how to posture around objectives,

03:01:10.260 --> 03:01:16.260
when to go for certain fights that are obviously disadvantageous for HLE at that point in the game.

03:01:16.260 --> 03:01:22.260
This is not to take anything away from line, right? But I do feel like there's two sides to every story.

03:01:22.260 --> 03:01:26.260
So if I'm HLE, I'm actually not necessarily looking at draft as a problem,

03:01:26.260 --> 03:01:29.260
because I think they had winning lanes, right?

03:01:29.260 --> 03:01:35.760
They had the Nocturne Orianna, they weren't able to get off that sick knock-waves combo that you want.

03:01:35.760 --> 03:01:39.760
So I don't even think, I think it's like they should have pushed the pace a lot faster,

03:01:39.760 --> 03:01:46.760
but then it was execution and especially teamfight setup around objectives, and that's what I'd look at.

03:01:46.760 --> 03:01:54.760
The thing is, one of Lyon's favorite strategies is give some of these high-prow low mobility carries to the enemy team

03:01:54.760 --> 03:01:59.400
team because Saint loves playing these types of champions with higher mobility, they can

03:01:59.400 --> 03:02:04.320
put the pressure on the Orianna, the Anivia and the Miss Fortune later in the game.

03:02:04.320 --> 03:02:08.400
They can find those flanks, find those plays and big dokes discussing it.

03:02:08.400 --> 03:02:11.240
Yeah, I think they're thinking about top lane matches because AOC is the key in the series.

03:02:11.240 --> 03:02:14.080
But to answer your question, Shox, who were we highlighting from HLE for why they're in

03:02:14.080 --> 03:02:15.080
the lower bracket?

03:02:15.080 --> 03:02:17.400
We're saying Zeka didn't play great against Nett.

03:02:17.400 --> 03:02:18.920
I don't feel like he's playing great in the series.

03:02:18.920 --> 03:02:19.920
He was okay on Syndra.

03:02:19.920 --> 03:02:21.920
That was a bad Orianna Nocturne game.

03:02:21.920 --> 03:02:27.020
Combo's actually landed and then the other one was delight who did okay in game one similar

03:02:27.980 --> 03:02:31.120
With the Camille and did not find good engages on the recon

03:02:31.120 --> 03:02:36.320
So that's a trend that is consistent across their last two series. That's a worrying trend some mayhabs would say

03:02:38.240 --> 03:02:46.180
Promising trench lion that fight back and put a chilly behind. Let's see who gets to match point first. Whoo. I'm glad we got one

03:03:21.920 --> 03:03:35.040
The human body was built to move, not trapped as a desk in one singular posture for 12 hours

03:03:35.040 --> 03:03:36.040
a day.

03:03:36.040 --> 03:03:37.040
It's time your chair evolved.

03:03:37.040 --> 03:03:38.040
This is Secret Lab Titan Hero.

03:04:11.040 --> 03:04:13.040

He shall not serve the fight!

03:04:15.040 --> 03:04:17.040
Now you have to get going!

03:04:17.040 --> 03:04:19.040
To turn the tide!

03:04:19.040 --> 03:04:21.040
He won't get rid of his enemies!

03:04:21.040 --> 03:04:23.040
He'll do so much work and get you!

03:04:23.040 --> 03:04:26.040
He's going to Eastern!

03:04:32.040 --> 03:04:35.040
Red Bull gives you wings!

03:05:11.040 --> 03:05:13.040
things.

03:08:11.040 --> 03:08:17.920
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to MSI 2026.

03:08:17.920 --> 03:08:19.680
It's the penultimate match to see

03:08:19.680 --> 03:08:23.640
who gets to play against BLG for the championship tomorrow.

03:08:23.640 --> 03:08:25.400
HLE took game one.

03:08:25.400 --> 03:08:28.600
And in game number two, they were slamming the lanes.

03:08:28.600 --> 03:08:32.560
But Lyon fought their way back all the way to the enemy nexus

03:08:32.560 --> 03:08:34.640
and tied us up one to one.

03:08:34.640 --> 03:08:36.840
I was just blown away by Guiyushi's signature,

03:08:36.840 --> 03:08:37.920
because that looked cool as hell.

03:08:37.920 --> 03:08:40.920
I feel like his signature just smogged everyone.

03:08:40.920 --> 03:08:43.600
That was actually crazy, but I gotta say, man,

03:08:43.600 --> 03:08:45.300
Lion are blowing me away.

03:08:45.300 --> 03:08:46.900
I love their prep.

03:08:46.900 --> 03:08:48.700
It's only the second time that Nocturne or Iana

03:08:48.700 --> 03:08:50.400
has been let through the entire tournament.

03:08:50.400 --> 03:08:51.400
And a lot of people are gonna think

03:08:51.400 --> 03:08:52.640
that's an absolute death sentence.

03:08:52.640 --> 03:08:53.680
If you let that through and you lose,

03:08:53.680 --> 03:08:55.300
you are getting roasted for it.

03:08:55.300 --> 03:08:58.540
Oh yeah, I would you give the number one jungle mid combo,

03:08:58.540 --> 03:09:00.580
but it has allowed them to know exactly

03:09:00.580 --> 03:09:01.540
what their opponents are gonna pick.

03:09:01.540 --> 03:09:02.680
When you leave that up,

03:09:02.680 --> 03:09:04.080
they know they're gonna be playing in Kali,

03:09:04.080 --> 03:09:06.780
Lee Sin, and to it, they know how they wanna play the fights,

03:09:06.780 --> 03:09:09.340
how they want to play the lanes, when they're going to be strong.

03:09:09.340 --> 03:09:11.820
And they have talked through all of this very clearly,

03:09:11.820 --> 03:09:17.020
so so much credit I think is deserved by the coaching staff throughout this entire event.

03:09:17.020 --> 03:09:20.140
I feel like Lyon's prep has been incredible.

03:09:20.140 --> 03:09:23.260
Yeah, you could tell the same happened with like letting through the Ziggs Camille,

03:09:23.260 --> 03:09:24.540
trying to see if you have an answer to that.

03:09:24.540 --> 03:09:30.060
Didn't quite go in favor of them, but still Lyon very well thought through on the way they want to

03:09:30.060 --> 03:09:33.020
approach things. And I've seen what the game plan is coming into this draft now.

03:09:33.020 --> 03:09:36.460
And the only time that Dr. Corey on it even got through was not main stage.

03:09:36.460 --> 03:09:48.100
It was TL versus KC, so it hasn't been a single time on the main stage here, and we are so deep into this tournament, so many games having been played, and that is just incredible from Lyon.

03:09:48.100 --> 03:10:04.460
Alright, let's go ahead and get into it. HLE, as the losers of the previous game, have selected first pick here in this next game, so we're going to see Jace and Gnar banned out by Lyon, targeting that top lane, targeting Zayas, meanwhile HLE banning out the Varus, the Vayne, and the Nautilus.

03:10:04.460 --> 03:10:13.860
Well, the Vi get banned is my next question because very strong, especially for a player like Nabi, he's been exceptional on the pick, so could be something like a Vi, are you trying to land us through here?

03:10:13.860 --> 03:10:25.660
You know what, I honestly wouldn't be shocked if they leave it up and they try to take a page out of Griffin's book because he and NA had been leaving it up and going Shen as an answer into it, even at times if the comp is low, going Nass as an answer into it.

03:10:25.660 --> 03:10:33.120
I think we might be about to see inspired learn a thing from one of the new guys and I think that's what they're trying to set up

03:10:33.120 --> 03:10:36.140
They're trying to set up a bait if HLE don't take it though

03:10:36.140 --> 03:10:40.540
Inspired also does love playing the Vi and state is wildly comfortable on the Ari

03:10:40.660 --> 03:10:45.600
So I'm gonna be so interested to see you know is HLE nervous to grab it

03:10:45.640 --> 03:10:49.220
They take us so here we have to see what the plan is gonna be because you get Shen

03:10:49.220 --> 03:10:53.680
Yeah, I do like the the response because I think Shen as you say very strong into it

03:10:53.680 --> 03:10:57.840
You just ult the target that's been ulted by the Vi, makes it very difficult to try and follow up, but

03:10:57.840 --> 03:11:02.080
I have to see because Lyon, like as you say, their prep has been exceptional this series.

03:11:02.080 --> 03:11:09.240
And you saw when Vi was locked in, 9 and 2 so far at this tournament, very, very powerful over an 80% win rate.

03:11:09.240 --> 03:11:13.360
So you can't just pick something normal, you've got to have some sort of answer pre-planned.

03:11:13.360 --> 03:11:20.240
And first and foremost, Lyon is going to go with the Lucian 7 and 1 here at MSI, has also been a very powerful pick.

03:11:20.240 --> 03:11:25.240
And Lucian Melio obviously really good as a bot lane, just in general, but also specifically into this,

03:11:25.240 --> 03:11:30.240
especially if you are expecting something like an Ari, you can cleanse the charm coming through with the Breath of Life.

03:11:30.240 --> 03:11:39.240
Cog Lulu could go pretty hard though, I think that is not an easy 2v2 to deal with, but I'm not sure if they'd be willing to just slam it down right here right now.

03:11:39.240 --> 03:11:44.240
I mean, we have seen HLE players domestically, they actually had the Shen for themselves in that combo as well.

03:11:44.240 --> 03:11:45.240
Oh!

03:11:45.240 --> 03:11:46.240
Then Hila!

03:11:46.240 --> 03:11:48.240
That was not what I had on the cards.

03:11:48.240 --> 03:11:54.240
OK, no picks, no bans, no presence at this tournament up until this point.

03:11:54.240 --> 03:11:58.240
Santa very strong, a lot of sudden either if you want to try and go for it, but it's not traditionally.

03:11:58.240 --> 03:12:03.240
Haha, OK, dropped it disappeared. Maybe they were cooking a little too hard.

03:12:03.240 --> 03:12:06.240
You know, the pots build a little bit. We got to re-come up with it.

03:12:06.240 --> 03:12:12.240
Yeah, the Neela shocked me because I just, I feel like it is not an easy pick to play into Luzard video as well.

03:12:12.240 --> 03:12:16.240
If you get disengaged on your dash in, that could be really, really tough.

03:12:16.240 --> 03:12:20.840
If you're going in with the ult and you get knocked back by the ult to make a fire kick, that can be really tough.

03:12:21.340 --> 03:12:25.040
But these are always these weird situations. We've had this a couple times in a tournament where it's like,

03:12:25.040 --> 03:12:31.540
if it is an accidental pick and the other team has not yet done their pick, then it can sometimes be okay on that remake,

03:12:31.540 --> 03:12:37.240
but it depends on why it happened. So we will update you as soon as we get any additional information about what exactly is going on.

03:12:37.740 --> 03:12:43.840
Right. The rules are generally always, if it was some kind of a tech technical issue or whatever, the player couldn't make the choice they wanted.

03:12:43.840 --> 03:12:49.600
Okay, we remake for that if the player just didn't lock in in time any sort of use your error you got to play it out

03:12:49.600 --> 03:12:53.320
Yeah, I am curious though if they do end up going for like say it is remade and they don't want this

03:12:53.320 --> 03:12:58.880
Neela like the Lucian Kog'maw because traditionally what I've seen is like Lucian Kog'maw with like Sinta or like some of these kind of

03:12:58.880 --> 03:12:59.840
on his

03:12:59.840 --> 03:13:03.920
junglers because you want to try and have that Lulu to support them something that works very well in the early stages

03:13:03.920 --> 03:13:08.320
But also something that can clear quickly to help support the Lulu Kog'maw in the matchup

03:13:08.320 --> 03:13:13.760
I feel like you kind of need that little shove from the jungle to really get the Lulu Kog'maw with that early control

03:13:13.840 --> 03:13:17.680
and with the volley locked in, I don't know if that really gives you what you want.

03:13:17.680 --> 03:13:22.680
Alright, I've been updated by our production. Excuse me, it was a client error.

03:13:22.680 --> 03:13:25.780
Nilo was not the correct champion that was supposed to be locked in.

03:13:25.780 --> 03:13:30.480
So the draft is going to be remade exactly as it was with the bands and the first couple of picks

03:13:30.480 --> 03:13:35.480
up until the Nilo lock and then HLE will be allowed to make the choice that they did want instead.

03:13:35.480 --> 03:13:38.480
Maybe Niko, as she starts with Ed, you know?

03:13:38.480 --> 03:13:40.980
It could be something completely different too, right?

03:13:40.980 --> 03:13:45.640
So I don't actually know how the phonetics even work on that so I'm not even going to

03:13:45.640 --> 03:13:47.140
guess what it could be.

03:13:47.140 --> 03:13:50.140
You've been here for several weeks if you're not aware of it.

03:13:50.140 --> 03:13:52.140
I mean, Dokla's doing pretty well with the Kree.

03:13:52.140 --> 03:13:53.140
It's true actually, yeah.

03:13:53.140 --> 03:13:54.140
She's got me beat.

03:13:54.140 --> 03:13:57.580
Dokla might have it figured out, but we certainly do not.

03:13:57.580 --> 03:13:58.580
We stay in our lane.

03:13:58.580 --> 03:14:00.420
Yeah, I grew up in a cornfield.

03:14:00.420 --> 03:14:02.340
I do not know how to speak Korean.

03:14:02.340 --> 03:14:05.660
I got a Jinho Jim Tio and that survived me through this.

03:14:05.660 --> 03:14:09.300
Hey, you've got me beat, brother, all right, let's go ahead and get back into it.

03:14:09.300 --> 03:14:15.580
So yeah, Cogmaw Lulu, the hyper scaling bottom lane duo to answer the Lucian Melio.

03:14:15.580 --> 03:14:18.100
This is going to be really, really interesting.

03:14:18.100 --> 03:14:20.220
Do you go for a denial pick here?

03:14:20.220 --> 03:14:21.220
Is it something like the Shen?

03:14:21.220 --> 03:14:25.740
Am I completely off, off the line on my read and they just go something more standard?

03:14:25.740 --> 03:14:27.100
There are a lot of different options.

03:14:27.100 --> 03:14:31.380
I think not having any dive threat versus Cog Lulu is really scary, which does kind of

03:14:31.380 --> 03:14:33.720
dissuade something like the Shen, I think.

03:14:33.720 --> 03:14:38.740
So they might just go for a different angle, try to get some heart engage from top, from

03:14:38.740 --> 03:14:43.220
jungle and it is going to be saying, you know, playing comfort here on the victor, they can

03:14:43.220 --> 03:14:48.260
ban out some of the pairings like the RE in that second phase. And I assume that they would want

03:14:48.260 --> 03:14:53.860
to part engage here because you either do that or you try to just like kite out the Cog W and you

03:14:53.860 --> 03:14:58.500
try to, you know, play around those windows of power, but that's not always easy. Yeah, I mean,

03:14:58.500 --> 03:15:02.260
we've been talking a lot about the Shen, but again, Zace has played the Shen with the Cog

03:15:02.260 --> 03:15:06.580
Lulu domestically. So you could end up having that Shen actually taken away. If you didn't end up

03:15:06.580 --> 03:15:09.620
playing the Shen, though into things like this Ion, which was more kind of the answer,

03:15:09.620 --> 03:15:14.580
and the Sion Ion now no longer available. And not really, I think a tank for Doklu in the top lane,

03:15:14.580 --> 03:15:17.380
maybe that's not gonna be the case. Yeah, I don't think Doklu will be going towards it,

03:15:17.380 --> 03:15:21.380
and it's obviously already been played, but I just think the Shen becomes less likely as an

03:15:21.380 --> 03:15:26.100
answering pick because of the Koglulu, but I'm interested to see, you know, what their read on

03:15:26.100 --> 03:15:30.340
it is, because they might have a completely different read of like, no, we don't actually dive,

03:15:30.340 --> 03:15:35.060
we just kill Vi when she dies, and that is what Shen does really succeed at. So,

03:15:35.060 --> 03:15:41.760
You know, if that is your reed, we kite back, we just outrange the Cog and Lulu to run away from them and kill whoever runs them.

03:15:41.760 --> 03:15:48.560
Which is kind of what I like to make to Rite that's own control because Cogma has to try and run through that gravity field to make sure that he can actually auto-attack you.

03:15:48.560 --> 03:15:53.860
So, I do like the way Liner already considering kind of how you can control his own Cog completely.

03:15:53.860 --> 03:15:56.760
Completely agree, and I mean the lasers can be difficult to deal with.

03:15:56.760 --> 03:16:03.060
It's going to be Ari and Casio, so two of those pairings that you might expect alongside that by taking away.

03:16:03.060 --> 03:16:08.020
Trundle obviously can be pretty annoying for Vi. It's kind of a similar thought process of you're not trying to go for the others

03:16:08.020 --> 03:16:12.060
You're trying to actually go for the Trundle and you can pillar out the cog and just kill the Vi when she ults it.

03:16:12.060 --> 03:16:17.540
Yeah, Trundle is so good at stat checking these junglers who have their engage as a big part of their power budget

03:16:17.540 --> 03:16:19.900
When you think of something like a Xin Zhao when you think of something like a Vi

03:16:19.900 --> 03:16:23.300
So that band makes sense. Kasante gonna be the final band here for this draft.

03:16:23.300 --> 03:16:30.260
Well, last time a Korean team played Coglu internationally was actually Worlds 2017 semis Wolf and Bang

03:16:30.260 --> 03:16:36.480
playing it against RNG. This was the infamous Baker Gallio series where he was everywhere.

03:16:36.480 --> 03:16:41.080
That was the first year I was a professional caster. It's been that long ago.

03:16:41.080 --> 03:16:42.080
I haven't started.

03:16:42.080 --> 03:16:48.080
All right, so you and I are both taking a long step back in time, lying and are going

03:16:48.080 --> 03:16:50.920
to go with the scarner here for the jungle pick.

03:16:50.920 --> 03:16:54.080
So this is a little bit of calm and a little bit of calm beat. Potentially you can get

03:16:54.080 --> 03:16:58.720
it off the cog, but you also can just peel the Vi when the Vi dives and actually kill

03:16:58.720 --> 03:17:03.580
that way so I do like this as an answer especially okay it's gonna be Yone so

03:17:03.580 --> 03:17:07.540
they're just throwing down the gauntlet. Zeca famed for his melee picks and what

03:17:07.540 --> 03:17:10.380
does Doklaid do into this is it just gonna be an Orn answer or a Gallio

03:17:10.380 --> 03:17:14.660
answer I feel like that could kind of fit what they're building here because it

03:17:14.660 --> 03:17:20.420
is against this rumble which can be a very tough matchup. So we saw Zeca play

03:17:20.420 --> 03:17:24.900
the Yone in the series against BLG that was in game number one that was also the

03:17:24.900 --> 03:17:28.700
game where there were two deaths before anybody even went to lane so it kind of

03:17:28.700 --> 03:17:31.900
just was lost from the very onset of things.

03:17:31.900 --> 03:17:35.140
This will be probably more of a showing of what he can do,

03:17:35.140 --> 03:17:38.620
but Gokla is going to lock in the Gwen here

03:17:38.620 --> 03:17:40.180
for the top lane against Rumble.

03:17:40.180 --> 03:17:42.220
Yeah, so Rumble did get nerfed several times ago

03:17:42.220 --> 03:17:44.220
that makes him a little bit weaker to those AP matchups.

03:17:44.220 --> 03:17:45.740
So opting into the Gwen to say,

03:17:45.740 --> 03:17:47.340
hey, we've got that late game scaling,

03:17:47.340 --> 03:17:49.860
coming through to Gwen, strong sideline presence,

03:17:49.860 --> 03:17:52.020
which has worked for a long time thus far in the series.

03:17:52.020 --> 03:17:54.300
And just see if you can immediately jump on

03:17:54.300 --> 03:17:55.860
towards this Kog'Maw in the backline

03:17:55.860 --> 03:17:57.580
using that W, the hallowed mist.

03:17:57.580 --> 03:17:59.940
So the cock might just kind of hit you when you take him down.

03:17:59.940 --> 03:18:00.740
Yeah, absolutely.

03:18:00.740 --> 03:18:02.140
I mean, it can be very strong.

03:18:02.140 --> 03:18:04.220
Obviously, you're going to outscale the rumble in those sidelines

03:18:04.220 --> 03:18:05.260
and the one who wants.

03:18:05.260 --> 03:18:06.460
But here's the question.

03:18:06.460 --> 03:18:08.420
Game one, you're playing against a tank.

03:18:08.420 --> 03:18:09.780
The lane is pretty chill.

03:18:09.780 --> 03:18:13.980
Game two went very bad for Dokla in this Dragus versus Nivea

03:18:13.980 --> 03:18:14.480
match.

03:18:14.480 --> 03:18:15.580
If he was really on the back foot,

03:18:15.580 --> 03:18:18.740
he had some great utility that he brought to a team fight.

03:18:18.740 --> 03:18:22.460
If you fall behind on Gwen, you don't have utility.

03:18:22.460 --> 03:18:24.740
You bring damage, and you bring only damage.

03:18:24.740 --> 03:18:28.060
So he has got to now believe in his skills

03:18:28.060 --> 03:18:32.340
in the 1v1 against Zayas in a carry versus carry matchup

03:18:32.340 --> 03:18:35.220
because he can't fall thousands of gold behind

03:18:35.220 --> 03:18:36.620
and expect to still be useful.

03:18:36.620 --> 03:18:39.020
And again, it goes back to what you mentioned

03:18:39.020 --> 03:18:41.380
in game number one, the quote from Inspired,

03:18:41.380 --> 03:18:42.980
you've got to take risks.

03:18:42.980 --> 03:18:45.260
You can't just play safe against HLE

03:18:45.260 --> 03:18:46.620
when you know you're the underdog,

03:18:46.620 --> 03:18:49.260
when you know what caliber of team you're up against.

03:18:49.260 --> 03:18:51.860
Sometimes you've got to roll the dice

03:18:51.860 --> 03:18:53.940
and Doku is saying that he can step up

03:18:53.940 --> 03:18:54.940
and answer the challenge.

03:18:54.940 --> 03:18:56.780
I'm trying to see if they're going to be weighted dice here

03:18:56.780 --> 03:18:58.380
because I think Inspire should be trying to play it

03:18:58.380 --> 03:18:59.740
and towards his bottom side.

03:18:59.740 --> 03:19:02.260
That's your breach to the late game.

03:19:02.260 --> 03:19:03.780
Get this Victor online.

03:19:03.780 --> 03:19:05.580
Get Tockelin to a position where he can be strong,

03:19:05.580 --> 03:19:06.420
even up to his feet.

03:19:06.420 --> 03:19:08.300
He's actually the master for Tockelin.

03:19:08.300 --> 03:19:09.460
He wants to have it in his bus.

03:19:09.460 --> 03:19:10.300
And look at Zayas.

03:19:10.300 --> 03:19:11.780
Zayas is actually playing Storm Raider's search.

03:19:11.780 --> 03:19:13.340
So he's going to be playing Storm Raider's search

03:19:13.340 --> 03:19:15.340
on the rumble, not the typical rune,

03:19:15.340 --> 03:19:18.300
but he is saying the way that I die, oh, level one.

03:19:19.580 --> 03:19:22.100
All right, not a whole lot that we got from the level one.

03:19:22.100 --> 03:19:23.100
But that's actually pretty big

03:19:23.100 --> 03:19:25.800
because I don't know if they're going to get a chance to base, right?

03:19:25.800 --> 03:19:27.300
And now you got a little bit of a chunk.

03:19:27.300 --> 03:19:29.200
You lose about 100 health there.

03:19:29.200 --> 03:19:33.700
So inspire with a nice little angle and we'll be back to that red buff in time to start.

03:19:33.700 --> 03:19:38.300
But again, you know, Storm Raider Surge is tech to deal with the all-in that's coming out from Doka.

03:19:38.300 --> 03:19:41.100
When you hit six, these slows from the needlework come out,

03:19:41.100 --> 03:19:43.700
and it can be very difficult to escape.

03:19:43.700 --> 03:19:46.600
And so this is the tech that allows you to answer that.

03:19:46.600 --> 03:19:48.500
I believe with the bomb-pating down on Gumi-Yushi as well,

03:19:48.500 --> 03:19:50.600
the Gisba-Zurka and I was a little bit of a window here.

03:19:50.600 --> 03:19:53.500
When the dash comes back up, there you go to try and look for these trades.

03:19:53.500 --> 03:19:57.240
A media barrier there, so Gumi Yuji can still contest his level 1 push.

03:19:57.240 --> 03:20:00.160
Yeah, the barrier coming out very, very quickly.

03:20:00.160 --> 03:20:03.960
And a good shield from Delight as well to help stave off some of that damage.

03:20:03.960 --> 03:20:07.000
But for Zercher and Isle, it's just constantly going to be trying to force these trades.

03:20:07.000 --> 03:20:10.960
Because Gumi outside of his W window is very weak,

03:20:10.960 --> 03:20:14.360
but during it, he is very, very strong.

03:20:14.360 --> 03:20:15.960
And that is why you see them trying to push so hard.

03:20:15.960 --> 03:20:19.360
Zec is kind of getting slammed in these trades right now. He's got to be careful.

03:20:19.360 --> 03:20:22.760
And that's why you can also see the pathing coming through from his Barbarys moving topside

03:20:22.760 --> 03:20:25.560
because you do have level 2 hit, good training there.

03:20:25.560 --> 03:20:29.060
Coming back from line honestly as they use the heal to keep themselves topped up

03:20:29.060 --> 03:20:32.560
but this is where this can't get painful if you're the Lucian Milio.

03:20:32.560 --> 03:20:36.160
Constantly getting pushed in, you never really have the ability to push back out

03:20:36.160 --> 03:20:38.060
because Lulu can use the Q but here we go.

03:20:38.060 --> 03:20:41.760
Yup, down in the bottom lane it's Berserker bringing Gumiuchi down to 100 HP.

03:20:41.760 --> 03:20:44.060
Ios continued to go for Berserker!

03:20:44.060 --> 03:20:46.760
He gets first blood in the 2v2.

03:20:46.760 --> 03:20:54.000
Isles flashing away from the Cogmaw body so that he does not get traded back, but Lion's bot lane duo comes to life

03:20:54.000 --> 03:20:59.280
How about this for lane dominance? You get the 2v2 and the flash off Guma

03:20:59.280 --> 03:21:02.920
You take them down and Sate is looking incredible in this mid lane

03:21:02.920 --> 03:21:05.440
They had a ward on both sides of the jungle provide

03:21:05.440 --> 03:21:10.440
They know exactly where he is and that's the extended punish from that level one the bone plating went down

03:21:10.440 --> 03:21:14.840
So in the initial trade Guma you she has to burn the barrier and then line

03:21:14.840 --> 03:21:21.040
No, they have more in the tank when it comes to the summoner spells immediately going in the cozy campfire giving the heal

03:21:21.040 --> 03:21:26.400
The range and you still got the barrier to make sure this trade is all in favor of line

03:21:26.400 --> 03:21:30.880
And it's just beautiful there notice the backs up from berserker. He's getting low

03:21:31.160 --> 03:21:36.520
Isles is still dealing the damage with the auto attacks. He's soaking up that damage from the cog maw and

03:21:36.960 --> 03:21:40.040
Canavi gonna get in here try to get that early ward down

03:21:40.040 --> 03:21:45.560
So far, and you can see this is the all-time head-to-head

03:21:45.560 --> 03:21:50.960
LCK versus LCS has not looked too good for us, let's be honest,

03:21:50.960 --> 03:21:54.280
but we have had these glimmers of hope in the more recent years.

03:21:54.280 --> 03:21:57.800
You think about that five-game series between FlyQuest and GenG.

03:21:57.800 --> 03:22:01.440
You think about TL challenging T1 a number of times.

03:22:01.440 --> 03:22:04.400
You think about that belief that we've had in some of these series,

03:22:04.400 --> 03:22:06.000
and that is what Lyon is trying to recapture.

03:22:06.000 --> 03:22:07.680
Sainton, a great job of freezing the wave here,

03:22:07.680 --> 03:22:11.020
referred to as Terror, hasn't gone for the reset, Zeke already tipped in, but now the

03:22:11.020 --> 03:22:12.680
play under Terror, Satan needs to flash.

03:22:12.680 --> 03:22:16.400
Yeah, Kenavi over the wall coming in with an all breaker, there's the Q flash to try

03:22:16.400 --> 03:22:21.220
to get the kill, one more hit from Zeke, he's going to get it done, and the HLE mid-jungle

03:22:21.220 --> 03:22:23.280
2-0 accomplishes the mission.

03:22:23.280 --> 03:22:28.000
Now inspired, Eastall's impact over the wall, but he can't collide with Zeke, so HLE, get

03:22:28.000 --> 03:22:29.000
a one for nothing.

03:22:29.000 --> 03:22:32.880
Sane was trying so hard to freeze that, had the teleport to come back into lane, just

03:22:32.880 --> 03:22:37.120
wanted to thin the wave a bit, but hey, Chalee, find the timing window.

03:22:37.120 --> 03:22:39.920
Cannabi sneaking around to the far side and getting the dive.

03:22:39.920 --> 03:22:43.420
That's actually huge. He cancels that guy's base there, and he has no TP.

03:22:43.420 --> 03:22:46.520
Yeah, up now up here on the top side, Dokla versus Zaeus.

03:22:46.520 --> 03:22:49.420
You can see the speed of that Storm Raider surge there for the rumble,

03:22:49.420 --> 03:22:52.120
but now inspired, making his way towards the bottom lane.

03:22:52.120 --> 03:22:54.020
The wave is crashing to the turret already.

03:22:54.020 --> 03:22:56.820
The Zerker and Iles, once again looking to make the moves.

03:22:56.820 --> 03:23:00.920
Gumiushi is taking low. Iles absorbing the turret. Gumiushi killed again.

03:23:00.920 --> 03:23:02.820
It won't be a two for nothing.

03:23:02.820 --> 03:23:05.720
It will not be a trade back from HLE.

03:23:05.720 --> 03:23:12.000
Inspired survives and Guma's dead again. They're continuing to punish on this bottom side line

03:23:12.240 --> 03:23:17.000
We're counterpicked, but line are stomping in the you she in delights

03:23:17.000 --> 03:23:21.440
It is just beautiful to see here from berserker and Isle's playing out so well

03:23:21.440 --> 03:23:24.800
Doka doing great in the 1v1 on the topside and inspired

03:23:25.360 --> 03:23:30.440
Getting involved here early Guma his barrier came back up, but it just did not matter

03:23:30.440 --> 03:23:35.680
They juggle it to her well Isles picked up the early aggro and that was enough to buy them the time

03:23:35.720 --> 03:23:38.420
even through Barrier and Shields to kill him off.

03:23:38.420 --> 03:23:41.060
And I'm glad you mentioned the Barrier, because the first death,

03:23:41.060 --> 03:23:42.620
Gumi-Yushi lost his Flash anyway.

03:23:42.620 --> 03:23:45.420
Now he loses his Barrier anyway, and you can see here,

03:23:45.420 --> 03:23:50.120
Berserker won his first game against Gumi-Yushi just last game,

03:23:50.120 --> 03:23:52.220
and now he's off to a nearly 1,000 gold lead.

03:23:52.220 --> 03:23:55.620
I have always felt a little bit that Berserker, when he goes international,

03:23:55.620 --> 03:23:58.120
has a little bit of a mental block against these LCK teams,

03:23:58.120 --> 03:24:01.520
because his time in the LCK, he was on bottom teams,

03:24:01.520 --> 03:24:04.620
he was mostly losing, he was seeing firsthand

03:24:04.620 --> 03:24:08.860
just how good they are and I wonder if getting that win against someone like

03:24:08.860 --> 03:24:13.860
Guma who he respects so much could really allow him to play a little bit more

03:24:13.860 --> 03:24:17.220
free a little bit more confidently believe in himself in these matchups

03:24:17.220 --> 03:24:21.180
that little bit more. I mean there's definitely a lot of belief in that

03:24:21.180 --> 03:24:25.700
bottom lane right now. Berserker is absolutely showing up. Two kills now in

03:24:25.700 --> 03:24:30.300
the Lucian, the early sheen to a slingshot like you're gonna be very much

03:24:30.300 --> 03:24:33.900
able to continue this pressure on the bottom side and that opens up things

03:24:33.900 --> 03:24:34.980
Is that the Dragon Ball?

03:24:34.980 --> 03:24:37.620
Yeah, but now it's a full Zen coming out!

03:24:37.620 --> 03:24:39.540
The Fate Seal does just that!

03:24:39.540 --> 03:24:42.100
HLE solo laners rotate over.

03:24:42.100 --> 03:24:45.100
They'll take the crab, and they'll take Inspired's life.

03:24:45.100 --> 03:24:47.620
And the fight was decided by this smite.

03:24:47.620 --> 03:24:48.860
Kenavi wins this smite.

03:24:48.860 --> 03:24:51.820
That gives him six, and that allows him to full send it

03:24:51.820 --> 03:24:53.580
there onto Inspire.

03:24:53.580 --> 03:24:57.580
Nicely done there from HLE, Kenavi, coming out on top there

03:24:57.580 --> 03:25:01.100
in that smite battle, earns him an extra kill.

03:25:01.100 --> 03:25:02.180
And an extra comp as well.

03:25:02.180 --> 03:25:08.580
might even earn him Dokla, who has stepped away, but Kanavi just gonna hop out of that one, still HLE

03:25:08.580 --> 03:25:10.580
making some moves on the top side.

03:25:11.080 --> 03:25:15.480
Yeah, they didn't want to try to make any sort of a play towards Dokla there, Equalizer is not available,

03:25:15.480 --> 03:25:20.080
the Viult is not available, the exhaust and the needlework both there for Dokla, so they just back it off.

03:25:20.080 --> 03:25:25.480
Yeah, exactly, and we're seeing the value of this Vi, Kanavi, making him pay thus far for giving that over,

03:25:25.480 --> 03:25:30.980
that is one of these picks, again, it is down to preparation, they didn't forget about the Vi, just like the Nocturne Orianna there saying,

03:25:30.980 --> 03:25:37.060
We are giving you this power, but our response is going to be powerful because we know exactly what you're going to be going for.

03:25:37.060 --> 03:25:40.100
But so far, Kanavi, great gank in mid lane, gets a kill for Zeke.

03:25:40.100 --> 03:25:43.540
That fight up on the top side, winning this fight, gets a kill for Zeus.

03:25:43.540 --> 03:25:47.300
And the double Z's up on the top side are getting a big lead.

03:25:47.300 --> 03:25:54.660
And this is Kanavi's tempo. When he joined HLE, the whole story was HLE trying to pick up the pace to keep up with Kanavi.

03:25:54.660 --> 03:25:59.580
You're seeing it now on this topside, the play in mid, then finding that smite on the

03:25:59.580 --> 03:26:01.580
Scuttle Crab to pick up the kill as well.

03:26:01.580 --> 03:26:06.500
And if this buy can start to punish some of the fact that you still have that flash gone

03:26:06.500 --> 03:26:10.780
in mid lane, you don't have a flash redone on the topside, there's always these windows

03:26:10.780 --> 03:26:12.660
for HLE to pick up more.

03:26:12.660 --> 03:26:14.380
And this is how HLE wants to play.

03:26:14.380 --> 03:26:15.980
They want to play around their solo lanes.

03:26:15.980 --> 03:26:20.760
They want Kenavi focusing on getting those double Z's like you're talking about ahead.

03:26:20.760 --> 03:26:24.460
We mentioned back in game number one, KumaYushi's used to being weak-sided.

03:26:24.460 --> 03:26:30.760
able to just farm up, he can be targeted and count on the rest of the team to get the work done if he's being focused.

03:26:30.760 --> 03:26:38.160
One thing I will say though, Coglu obviously has a lot of power in the late game, but generally speaking, I like Lions comp late game way more.

03:26:38.160 --> 03:26:43.660
I mean, I do think their ability to disengage some of these engages is incredibly powerful, and obviously they're looking for Saints.

03:26:43.660 --> 03:26:52.160
Yeah, Saint could be in some danger here, Vault Breaker finds a target, Saint uses the power siphon to get himself away in time, still loses about one-third HP.

03:26:52.160 --> 03:26:54.160
Yeah, but it's a chunk because

03:26:54.160 --> 03:26:56.160
Inspired here is over on the grubs

03:26:56.160 --> 03:26:58.160
And does grab that first grub

03:26:58.160 --> 03:27:00.160
Has his ulti available, Kanavi is back too

03:27:00.160 --> 03:27:02.160
Okay, one for one on grub so far

03:27:02.160 --> 03:27:05.160
Third grub still alive, Kanavi should be able to secure this one easy

03:27:05.160 --> 03:27:07.160
So HLE is coming out on top

03:27:07.160 --> 03:27:09.160
Kanavi is at two full levels over inspired now

03:27:09.160 --> 03:27:12.160
After the kills, after the stolen camps inspired

03:27:12.160 --> 03:27:14.160
Rarely gets this far behind

03:27:14.160 --> 03:27:17.160
And that's why I'm surprised that Lyne didn't try and take that fight

03:27:17.160 --> 03:27:20.160
They had the push on top, already Victor chips across the mid

03:27:20.160 --> 03:27:24.800
I honestly expected them to just try and force end with the position they had on the map,

03:27:24.800 --> 03:27:28.320
but inspired a little bit where he is. He backs away in a Kenavi once more.

03:27:28.320 --> 03:27:34.000
Yup, that's the level 8 versus level 6 advantage Kenavi knows. Inspired cannot deal with him,

03:27:34.000 --> 03:27:39.440
and now, season desist! Yet again, wild growth with Gov'l-Ushin coming up right behind him.

03:27:39.440 --> 03:27:43.040
Delight takes the kill, and HLE finds their third.

03:27:43.040 --> 03:27:47.760
Punch in the face, knocked up by the wall, growth, and then turned into a little butterfly.

03:27:47.760 --> 03:27:54.800
Inspired did not have a fun time in that one, ask all and can now be this boy is taking over.

03:27:54.800 --> 03:27:59.440
Yeah, it's gonna get really hard because he's losing camps again off the back of that. Inspired

03:28:00.080 --> 03:28:06.080
is always so precise with his plays, always so efficient with his plays and now down so much

03:28:06.080 --> 03:28:10.320
farm. The gold is less the problem than the experience because he's maintained that two

03:28:10.320 --> 03:28:16.000
full level lead. And though I do really like line scaling, if the skarner does not say relevant,

03:28:16.000 --> 03:28:22.520
You are just food for this cop and I think can Abbie's been in a great job of basically tracking what inspires up to and then punishing further right

03:28:22.520 --> 03:28:26.880
Yeah, make the plan, but you get a camp you try and take the fight on the top side of the scuttle steal away the gromp

03:28:26.880 --> 03:28:29.560
Then go for the re-invade on the ground have the support there

03:28:29.560 --> 03:28:36.040
And it's this constant ticker that can Abbie goes for because in the past we had like Yankees was talking about trying to play against can Abbie

03:28:36.080 --> 03:28:41.240
If you took a scryer's bloom at the wrong time can Abbie would track you for the next three minutes

03:28:41.240 --> 03:28:46.060
This has always been where this jungler has shined and again we're starting to see it here in this game

03:28:46.060 --> 03:28:50.900
I mean when he is at his best. He is so hard to stop the plays come fast and furious

03:28:50.900 --> 03:28:53.080
He's always trying to push that limit as you're saying

03:28:53.760 --> 03:28:59.040
Attracting you perfectly forcing plays creating advantage after advantage after advantage and it's fire right now

03:28:59.080 --> 03:29:02.560
It's just kind of in recovery mode. It is a very late first dragon

03:29:02.560 --> 03:29:09.100
So not worried about an early soul or anything like that and top lane has been fine so far for Dopla

03:29:09.100 --> 03:29:11.300
which I think Lion will be very happy about.

03:29:11.300 --> 03:29:15.100
Yeah, this dragon way, way later compared to the first two games.

03:29:15.100 --> 03:29:20.100
This is honestly around the time the second Drake has spawned and been fought for in the previous two.

03:29:20.100 --> 03:29:23.100
So slower on that one, but HLE does own the first Drake.

03:29:23.100 --> 03:29:25.400
They do own the 2-1 here in the Void Grub.

03:29:25.400 --> 03:29:29.300
So neutral objectives going the way of the team that has the Accelerated Jungler.

03:29:29.300 --> 03:29:32.700
The two first items completed by Berserker and Kenavi though.

03:29:32.700 --> 03:29:37.100
So it really does become a fight between those two if we get to this next objective.

03:29:37.100 --> 03:29:40.380
But can I be realizing hang on I don't have that cease and desist

03:29:40.380 --> 03:29:43.020
I don't want anything to do with this bottom lane right now

03:29:43.020 --> 03:29:46.700
I'm just gonna try and clear out make sure I was there to cover any sort of play that happened

03:29:46.700 --> 03:29:49.740
We just try and keep this golden flux going in my face

03:29:50.820 --> 03:29:54.380
Hold on exhaust use here in the top side. Doku's got the needlework

03:29:54.380 --> 03:30:00.460
The equalizer has already been used on the wave meanwhile bottom lane inspired potentially looking for a play down here top side

03:30:00.460 --> 03:30:05.300
And Doku is going to be Baron Loseus with the solo kill, cuts him down.

03:30:05.300 --> 03:30:08.260
Meanwhile, bottom side Berserker needs a little bit more damage to try to kill Gumi.

03:30:08.260 --> 03:30:10.960
Usually the turret is going to turn right back over onto Inspired.

03:30:10.960 --> 03:30:14.800
Breath of Life will not save him, but Berserker has already got the double kill.

03:30:14.800 --> 03:30:16.600
It's a 2 for 2 across the map.

03:30:16.600 --> 03:30:23.400
Inspired is all in on this bot lane, is giving up his top camps to make sure that Berserker

03:30:23.400 --> 03:30:27.840
can go 4 and 0, but it's HLE that are winning elsewhere.

03:30:27.840 --> 03:30:29.940
Yeah, and they're winning elsewhere big time.

03:30:29.940 --> 03:30:38.000
Inspired now three full levels down. Yes, Berserker is strong, but Zaeus gets a solo kill on that top side and

03:30:38.380 --> 03:30:42.900
Dokla, you know tries to fight it out, feels that the exhaust might actually make the difference here,

03:30:42.980 --> 03:30:47.660
but with that shroud down Zaeus was happy to take the fight. Even with that early exhaust,

03:30:47.660 --> 03:30:52.800
he just kites it out. He has this with these and you can see this needlework not really getting too much value and then Zaeus keeps

03:30:52.800 --> 03:30:54.800
his heat at just the right

03:30:54.800 --> 03:31:02.800
Let's call it. Flashes in finishes him off. Beautiful solo. Yeah, the needlework dodge twice in that fight was huge and then on the dive.

03:31:02.800 --> 03:31:09.800
Yumeyushi flashes away, but it's straight into the face of a clothing and it's good dot using of the terror aggro. It is inspired. It goes down.

03:31:09.800 --> 03:31:16.800
But the fact that you get two kills onto berserker and some turrets plates has to be the silver lining here for line. It really is.

03:31:16.800 --> 03:31:21.800
And I mean, it's it's kind of all eggs in the berserker basket because the gold is close, but don't look going to get pressured again.

03:31:21.800 --> 03:31:26.800
Yep, it's Kanavi looking to work together with Zayas and find yet another kill here in the top lane.

03:31:26.800 --> 03:31:31.800
HLE's game plan, focus these solo lanes, get him ahead.

03:31:31.800 --> 03:31:38.800
Doka survives for now, but Kanavi re-enters and Kanavi takes another one. HLE, a thousand gold ahead.

03:31:38.800 --> 03:31:44.800
Yeah, Doka had both Berserker and us who were moving up, but thought maybe he could play it safe with the dash,

03:31:44.800 --> 03:31:47.800
cause them off, and I mean he just falls on his own.

03:31:47.800 --> 03:31:58.420
Yeah, I feel like Dokla had outplayed it, he had survived, and then he was trying to reset that skip and slash by getting those melees down and ends up just dying and giving one over, and that's costly if you're going to look for Zeca.

03:31:58.420 --> 03:32:05.580
Yup, Zeca's about to endure a four-man play. He wants to try to turn it around a little bit here. Solo and down is already in used. Fate's Field doesn't get him a whole lot.

03:32:05.580 --> 03:32:12.480
Zeca, taken out. However, HLE's not done. Berserker's under pressure. Kanabi trying to kill him off. Berserker firing back.

03:32:12.480 --> 03:32:16.480
Kenavi gets the kill, everyone to inspire, and the Wild Growth is going to keep A.J.L.E. going.

03:32:16.480 --> 03:32:20.480
Ryan, all utterly routed, and A.J.L.E.

03:32:20.480 --> 03:32:24.480
Barry Four, Dokla, will at least get one back.

03:32:24.480 --> 03:32:28.480
Look at Miyoshi over in mid lane as he skips and slashes away from the bomb.

03:32:28.480 --> 03:32:32.480
He'll survive. It's a 4-for-2 trade. A.J.L.E.

03:32:32.480 --> 03:32:33.480
2,000 gold lead.

03:32:33.480 --> 03:32:36.480
Ryan had to have thought they had Kenavi there,

03:32:36.480 --> 03:32:39.480
but the sundered sky healing was insane.

03:32:39.480 --> 03:32:45.400
He just bounces back and forth between targets heel after heel after heel the fight starts out pretty well

03:32:45.400 --> 03:32:50.180
There's a TP coming in behind, but they just rush down Zeka, but look at how tanky can obvious

03:32:50.180 --> 03:32:53.200
He is 2,000 gold ahead. They sent him into the wall. They ult him up

03:32:53.200 --> 03:32:54.720
Look at the survival here though

03:32:54.720 --> 03:33:00.620
He gets the passive shield one problem is under the sky another problem is under the sky the wild growth and

03:33:00.960 --> 03:33:04.120
Even as strong as berserker is you can't get the kill online

03:33:04.120 --> 03:33:07.360
We're just trying to make that play quick and fast get on out

03:33:07.360 --> 03:33:10.440
But Saint didn't have the manner to follow up on the rest of the fight

03:33:10.440 --> 03:33:14.800
but don't the least able to get something back in the midline because he's Zekka

03:33:15.360 --> 03:33:18.000
Happy that his team was able to bail him out of that one

03:33:22.280 --> 03:33:25.220
Continue to try to pull their way back into this

03:33:25.220 --> 03:33:28.800
I mean you still have a super strong AD carry, but Zeus is now massively ahead

03:33:28.800 --> 03:33:31.300
Canavi has maintained this enormous

03:33:31.600 --> 03:33:34.400
Jungle lead as well and that was the problem in that fight as well

03:33:34.400 --> 03:33:40.300
Canavi having so much damage just mainly basically soloed out Berserker before anyone could really help him out

03:33:40.300 --> 03:33:44.320
And that's a major issue with these upcoming fights and inspired having no damage, right?

03:33:44.320 --> 03:33:47.420
You know if he had had any damage, he could have actually maybe finished him off there

03:33:47.420 --> 03:33:53.960
Canavi was down about 5-10% before he started getting that healing coming in but inspired is still down almost a full three

03:33:54.140 --> 03:34:01.040
Levels here as Canavi's gonna hit 12. Yeah inspired has his heart steel and he has a couple of very basic low tier items

03:34:01.040 --> 03:34:06.060
Meanwhile, Sundar Sky and Cleaver both completed for Kanavi, Gumi-Yoshi about to die to the calling.

03:34:06.060 --> 03:34:10.760
Barrier keeps him alive, Berserker loses a lot of health to the heated up turret.

03:34:10.760 --> 03:34:15.540
Not really worth it in the end, Berserker took so much damage from the turret that he has to back away anyway.

03:34:15.540 --> 03:34:22.380
And now you've got that push on the bottom lane from Zedka, so immediately HLE gonna move over towards the dragon and pick that one up.

03:34:23.500 --> 03:34:28.260
And a very least inspired obviously from behind, you have your CC, but we talked about it with Doko,

03:34:28.260 --> 03:34:32.500
but he did get that kill onto Guma, which is something for him,

03:34:32.500 --> 03:34:35.220
but, you know, before that solo kill, he was holding even.

03:34:35.220 --> 03:34:38.460
Then he gets solo killed, then he gets go, now he's down 2k,

03:34:38.460 --> 03:34:40.700
and Glenn does not have that utility.

03:34:40.700 --> 03:34:43.100
Now, though, may be a moment to fight for Lyme,

03:34:43.100 --> 03:34:45.820
because you just hit two items on Berserker on this reset,

03:34:45.820 --> 03:34:47.460
you have Rift air looking available.

03:34:47.460 --> 03:34:49.460
Ping's already going down from HLE,

03:34:49.460 --> 03:34:51.140
they want to try and move into position,

03:34:51.140 --> 03:34:52.700
but you only have the members of Lyme

03:34:52.700 --> 03:34:54.780
coming back out of the map now inspired,

03:34:54.780 --> 03:34:56.260
starting to move into this bottom side,

03:34:56.260 --> 03:34:58.660
where there is not a single compact cipher.

03:34:58.660 --> 03:35:00.140
I think the terrifying part, though,

03:35:00.140 --> 03:35:02.100
is when you are kind of one threat right now.

03:35:02.100 --> 03:35:03.980
I mean, Sainte is relevant. Uh-oh.

03:35:03.980 --> 03:35:06.460
Over the wall goes Canavi and Dohkla.

03:35:06.460 --> 03:35:09.660
Once again, Masis and Desist.

03:35:09.660 --> 03:35:11.580
Zayas unstoppable.

03:35:11.580 --> 03:35:15.860
Canavi is anywhere and everywhere at the same time,

03:35:15.860 --> 03:35:18.180
and he is dominating this third game.

03:35:18.180 --> 03:35:19.580
And look at Zeke reading the play.

03:35:19.580 --> 03:35:22.260
He knows every time they go top, they dive him bot.

03:35:22.260 --> 03:35:23.340
Zeke just walks mid.

03:35:23.340 --> 03:35:25.260
He's going to farm up the Wolves and say,

03:35:25.260 --> 03:35:29.740
I know what you were looking for, I'm not gonna show up for it, I won't give a kill back this time.

03:35:30.240 --> 03:35:39.240
But, you know, you need that second threat for Lyon, because otherwise it's gonna be Yone'ol, it's gonna be Viol, it's gonna be E.K.Lizer, all on your head, every fight as Berserker, and someone else has to punish.

03:35:39.400 --> 03:35:46.660
Berserker now gonna be your target, Polymorph tries to get away, but the main shield, again, will do its duty!

03:35:46.820 --> 03:35:54.980
Guma Yu, she takes the kill to add insult to injury, and now, the one point of strength for Lyon is cut down.

03:35:54.980 --> 03:36:00.980
HLE over 4,000 gold ahead as they rammed the Rift Herald straight down mid.

03:36:00.980 --> 03:36:05.780
The instructional video for Azale's commentary just comes through immediately afterwards.

03:36:05.780 --> 03:36:09.220
Like, there was nothing that Berserker could do on that one.

03:36:09.220 --> 03:36:16.020
Now the Rift Herald going to the bot lane, 4,000 gold, about to skyrocket for HLE.

03:36:16.020 --> 03:36:18.980
I mean, this is just a topside masterclass here.

03:36:18.980 --> 03:36:22.420
Kanavi and Zeiss really running away with the game.

03:36:22.420 --> 03:36:24.820
Lyon will continue to fight, continue to look for plays,

03:36:24.820 --> 03:36:26.580
and we'll see if they can find something on Zayas,

03:36:26.580 --> 03:36:29.060
but this is a risky dive if they want to go for it.

03:36:29.060 --> 03:36:32.580
All right, Doku's wave going to be cleared out by the equalizer.

03:36:32.580 --> 03:36:36.020
St. shows up, inspired, trying to get in here and make the play.

03:36:36.020 --> 03:36:39.460
Zayas shoved away out of the turret, inspired, barely survives.

03:36:39.460 --> 03:36:43.220
Lyon get their mark before Kenavi can show up with Delight

03:36:43.220 --> 03:36:44.260
to try to get one back.

03:36:44.260 --> 03:36:46.180
I wasn't sure if Delight was going to get there in time,

03:36:46.180 --> 03:36:47.700
but I don't think they really care.

03:36:47.700 --> 03:36:50.500
You got Zekka onto the tier two in the bottom lane,

03:36:50.500 --> 03:36:56.620
putting in work. It feels like line. They're still trying to make these plays happen, but they just don't have the map to do so.

03:36:56.620 --> 03:37:01.420
Yeah, it's very very difficult. I mean when your jungler falls this far behind, it's gonna be tough and Knavi looking for more.

03:37:01.420 --> 03:37:09.020
Yep, once again that season desist is going to find a valuable target. The solo laners online are being hunted.

03:37:09.020 --> 03:37:14.220
Knavi is having such an impressive game here. This is exactly the way he wants to play.

03:37:14.220 --> 03:37:20.220
This is exactly how HLE has become such a powerful team in the LCK and they are doing it again.

03:37:20.220 --> 03:37:27.220
Here in this third game against Lyon and while berserker is still strong quietly his gold lead has been eroded away at you know

03:37:27.220 --> 03:37:29.660
Guma down 1k that is relevant

03:37:29.660 --> 03:37:34.140
But then you look over and you see a 2.4k gold lead a two level lead in the jungle

03:37:34.140 --> 03:37:41.060
You see an entire level lead in 1.3k in the advantage of the seis and you realize that 1k for berserker might not be enough

03:37:41.580 --> 03:37:45.100
Canavi versus inspired here with a blue buff inspired going through the wall

03:37:45.100 --> 03:37:48.940
wants Canavi to have the flash away from the Vi to answer the flash from

03:37:48.940 --> 03:37:52.940
Inspire to chase him over the wall. Canavi stays alive and still deathless this

03:37:52.940 --> 03:37:56.740
game. It's a valuable effort from Inspire but couldn't quite make it work.

03:37:56.740 --> 03:38:00.300
We're trying to use the timing window as Zeko is pushing in this topside to make

03:38:00.300 --> 03:38:05.100
something happen but Lion haven't recessed. Zeko is getting so much gold

03:38:05.100 --> 03:38:09.040
on these side lanes for free. Yeah I mean Lion obviously feel like the pace of the

03:38:09.040 --> 03:38:12.580
game is not working in their favor so they have made the call that we have

03:38:12.580 --> 03:38:17.140
got to send on plays. We cannot play the game out normal. We cannot just match sidelines and expect

03:38:17.140 --> 03:38:22.580
to win. So Inspired is just going to keep sending it. He does this NNA. It is very rare that he gets

03:38:22.580 --> 03:38:26.340
behind, but as far as going to test it, sometimes he does and he has these games where he's going

03:38:26.340 --> 03:38:31.700
to end up with seven, eight, nine deaths. It feels like because he believes the best way to win in a

03:38:31.700 --> 03:38:35.460
position like this is just ascended. So that's what he's going to keep doing. He will not bleed

03:38:35.460 --> 03:38:40.260
out slowly. If he feels like they are at a disadvantage, he's going to keep trying to make

03:38:40.260 --> 03:38:47.460
a move happen, but it's so difficult against a team like HLE when they have a lead built up like this.

03:38:47.460 --> 03:38:53.300
4,000 gold, everybody's feeling super strong. Gumiuchi now with a second fully completed item.

03:38:53.300 --> 03:38:58.180
He's on the same number of completions as Berserker, so again, they have one point of strength for Lyon.

03:38:58.180 --> 03:39:02.740
Doesn't feel particularly strong with 30 seconds left to go until the third Drake spawns.

03:39:03.540 --> 03:39:07.060
Yeah, we'll see exactly what he's going to be able to get done.

03:39:07.060 --> 03:39:22.060
Lion trying to fight. It is going to be yet another Hextech Soul. Three games in a row here that it is going to be that Hextech Soul up and available and this time it is definitely favoring HLE as they are the ones with the two dragons to zero lead.

03:39:22.060 --> 03:39:28.060
And Lion not really looking like they are prepped to even fight this one whatsoever so I think Lion are going to have to give it probably.

03:39:28.060 --> 03:39:35.060
And you can see powerful defensive itemization for the HLE solo laners as well, immortal shield bow for Zeca.

03:39:35.060 --> 03:39:40.060
Inspire gonna be the target here for Kanavi, tries to use the impale to turn things around and buy himself a little time.

03:39:40.060 --> 03:39:48.060
Inspire below half HP, Doku gonna be your target, tries to use the hallowed mist, but Doku is already down and Kanavi is on a rampage.

03:39:48.060 --> 03:39:52.060
HLE, they find the pick and earn the drake.

03:39:52.060 --> 03:39:59.780
It's a faint from HLE. They go for the scarner, but they hit in the kidneys on a Stokela who ends up falling as a result

03:39:59.780 --> 03:40:02.460
Dragon number three for the LCK.

03:40:02.460 --> 03:40:06.580
It's just one of a thousand great plays from Kanabi this game inspired

03:40:06.820 --> 03:40:11.260
Sent the impale in on the Kanabi, but there was no one around to follow up on the damage

03:40:11.260 --> 03:40:13.260
So Kanabi was still at full health and

03:40:13.820 --> 03:40:19.380
We see him just full send it on to Dokela as soon as he shows up and they're gonna move themselves to the sole point

03:40:19.380 --> 03:40:21.380
They have nearly a 5000 gold lead.

03:40:21.380 --> 03:40:23.380
They are looking so damn strong.

03:40:23.380 --> 03:40:28.380
Inspired, maybe thinking that his team was closer than they were in this moment.

03:40:28.380 --> 03:40:31.380
I mean, Kanabi goes in and he tries to CC him up, but it's just,

03:40:31.380 --> 03:40:33.380
no one's in range follow-up on the impale.

03:40:33.380 --> 03:40:35.380
Yeah, inspired just a little bit too far forward.

03:40:35.380 --> 03:40:38.380
Maybe worried that Kanabi was going to ult him immediately,

03:40:38.380 --> 03:40:40.380
but instead, Doka tries to move into help,

03:40:40.380 --> 03:40:44.380
and the end of just turning it onto the top laner and finishing him off.

03:40:44.380 --> 03:40:48.380
Zeku has been hiding in this bush for a while, and how do you go for the terror?

03:40:48.380 --> 03:40:53.500
once, maybe a kill, but it's just gonna channel the bucket. Yeah, we'll end the bucket away for me.

03:40:55.820 --> 03:41:03.420
4.9,000 Goldly, three Drake's to nothing, three turrets to one. Everything belongs to HLE

03:41:03.420 --> 03:41:07.900
right now, as Guma Yushi steps forward, and this Cogmaw is really starting to hurt up here in the

03:41:07.900 --> 03:41:13.660
top lane. Zeka also winning out in the trade against Doklai, even despite the turrets interference.

03:41:13.660 --> 03:41:18.140
For Lyon, it's got to be some kind of a miracle. We think back to game one, we think to the clever

03:41:18.140 --> 03:41:22.140
steal on the Elder Drake that looked like it may have given them a chance when the game was otherwise over.

03:41:22.140 --> 03:41:26.640
Anything shy of that, and I feel like HLE's got this one locked down.

03:41:26.640 --> 03:41:31.440
And I just don't think they have the same kind of playmaking. I mean, Iles has been so critical in the last two games, his playmaking.

03:41:31.440 --> 03:41:35.640
It's really just inspired. That can try to grab someone, but he's so far behind.

03:41:35.640 --> 03:41:40.140
He has just been paid for, and HLE want to force the issue. They're trying to get at least a TP from Doku.

03:41:40.140 --> 03:41:46.940
Exactly. Doku down at the bottom lane. Teleports ready. But Kanavi and Zeca can take down this Baron so easily with just the two of them.

03:41:46.940 --> 03:41:51.980
Teleport coming in now from Dokla. HLE, they got what they came for. Summoner's spell is down.

03:41:51.980 --> 03:41:57.100
St. Steps forward towards the Baron, but it's already lost its patience and regenerated far too much HP.

03:41:57.100 --> 03:42:02.380
Berserker stepped up here in the mid lane. Inspire goes over the wall, finds the slam onto Kanavi,

03:42:02.380 --> 03:42:06.940
but where's the follow-up damage? There's nothing from Lyon. Kanavi's just fine with the wild growth.

03:42:06.940 --> 03:42:14.540
He gets back over the wall. That's Impale plus the Arcane Storm used by Lyon. Only wild growth from HLE.

03:42:14.540 --> 03:42:19.180
As now, Inspire looking to find the catch here on the second and the mid lane, Iosgraft's a kill.

03:42:19.180 --> 03:42:21.140
They managed to take out the enemy mid laner.

03:42:21.140 --> 03:42:22.640
Kumiuchi's about to die next.

03:42:22.640 --> 03:42:24.740
Seiya's in the middle of everybody exhausted.

03:42:24.740 --> 03:42:27.740
They try to get Kanavi out, he barely stays alive.

03:42:27.740 --> 03:42:29.940
No deaths on the lion side.

03:42:29.940 --> 03:42:32.140
I said they needed a miracle,

03:42:32.140 --> 03:42:35.340
and that teamfight may have turned water to wine.

03:42:35.340 --> 03:42:39.440
What a fight there from Lyon out of nowhere from so far behind.

03:42:39.440 --> 03:42:42.240
They're going to go for the Baron, but Przegor has no HP.

03:42:42.240 --> 03:42:43.540
I don't even know if he can do this,

03:42:43.540 --> 03:42:46.300
and Kenavi is still in the area, has smite.

03:42:46.300 --> 03:42:49.440
Okay, Milio, very good at keeping his allies topped off.

03:42:49.440 --> 03:42:52.180
You've got the cozy campfire, you've got the warm hogs.

03:42:52.180 --> 03:42:53.780
Sane's gonna try to make sure

03:42:53.780 --> 03:42:55.520
that Kenavi can't get anywhere near this one.

03:42:55.520 --> 03:42:57.520
Sane goes over the wall, Kenavi trying to get out now,

03:42:57.520 --> 03:42:58.780
stuck inside the gravity field,

03:42:58.780 --> 03:42:59.980
turns it right back around with a ball,

03:42:59.980 --> 03:43:02.320
Breaker looking at Sane, season desist.

03:43:02.320 --> 03:43:05.320
Kenavi staying alive, Sane out playing him,

03:43:05.320 --> 03:43:08.200
and with the ultra mega-fighter kick,

03:43:08.200 --> 03:43:10.860
IELTS guarantees the enemy jungler falls.

03:43:10.860 --> 03:43:12.200
Let's take a look.

03:43:12.200 --> 03:43:16.340
You can see in the fight in here that as they hit a force in Canavia, if they jump on top of them,

03:43:16.340 --> 03:43:21.640
you get the opa. Canavia has to escape over the top of us because of the gravity field coming through from Saint.

03:43:21.640 --> 03:43:24.600
And that's where Zeke thinks he finds his moment.

03:43:24.600 --> 03:43:27.480
He lifts and it sets up line for the re-engage.

03:43:27.480 --> 03:43:30.040
Exactly. Zeke goes forward here, but he's already a little bit low.

03:43:30.040 --> 03:43:35.440
And look at that sidestep from Inspire. Slams him into the wall, and they just have enough damage to take him down.

03:43:35.440 --> 03:43:41.040
Guba has overstepped. Dogla catches him, and then Zayas flashes in, tries to take out Berserker.

03:43:41.040 --> 03:43:43.840
But the exhaust is there, the breath of life is there.

03:43:43.840 --> 03:43:49.240
And then, Berserker going too far forward, has to use both of Summoners, barely survives.

03:43:49.240 --> 03:43:52.440
A big misstep from Berserker, but it's still a brilliant fight.

03:43:52.440 --> 03:43:53.240
They're looking for Guma!

03:43:53.240 --> 03:43:56.340
We're right back on the line, but Guma, you, she's dead!

03:43:56.340 --> 03:43:59.640
Inspired, looking to make it a two-man play as the light tries to get out.

03:43:59.640 --> 03:44:01.540
They use the umbrella, they found Zeca.

03:44:01.540 --> 03:44:03.840
He wants to get away with the bait, he's on his block.

03:44:03.840 --> 03:44:05.140
Zeca making enough distance for now.

03:44:05.140 --> 03:44:07.540
They are in the middle of everybody, but Berserker kills them off.

03:44:07.540 --> 03:44:09.540
They're inside meat grinder!

03:44:09.540 --> 03:44:11.540
They tell E!

03:44:11.540 --> 03:44:12.540
They are aced!

03:44:12.540 --> 03:44:16.540
You can win the game for 90% of the time!

03:44:16.540 --> 03:44:19.540
But Lyon, find the clutch!

03:44:19.540 --> 03:44:22.540
They find the clutch and they should be able to end it right here right now!

03:44:22.540 --> 03:44:23.540
They got the wave!

03:44:23.540 --> 03:44:25.540
They're pushing straight into the enemy base.

03:44:25.540 --> 03:44:27.540
Look at your win chance!

03:44:27.540 --> 03:44:29.540
Look at the gold gap!

03:44:29.540 --> 03:44:34.540
Look at Lyon in the base of HLE!

03:44:34.540 --> 03:44:36.540
They push towards the next endurance.

03:44:36.540 --> 03:44:39.540
Gumiuchi is back alive, Delight in 10,

03:44:39.540 --> 03:44:41.940
Lion Health bars, Compromised.

03:44:41.940 --> 03:44:45.260
First Nexus turret, taken low, taken out.

03:44:45.260 --> 03:44:46.700
Three seconds on Delight.

03:44:46.700 --> 03:44:50.100
Gumiuchi stepping forward, the game's not over yet.

03:44:50.100 --> 03:44:52.540
Lion's health was too low to hit.

03:44:52.540 --> 03:44:54.900
Lion don't think they can do it.

03:44:54.900 --> 03:44:56.260
They will just back away,

03:44:56.260 --> 03:44:58.100
but the TPs are coming in the resets.

03:44:58.100 --> 03:45:01.060
Tanks, that barn buff, are gonna get them out of there.

03:45:01.060 --> 03:45:06.060
Lion, what a 7,000 goal play on the Red Bull Barn Powerplay.

03:45:06.060 --> 03:45:13.260
But it's Sol, it's Sol that's on the table now and HLE are rushing for it here, Lyon are strong now, but they spent a lot on that fight, they thought they could end it.

03:45:13.260 --> 03:45:20.300
Yep, Lyon's going in, they want to try to challenge here for the Sol. This could decide the entire game. HLE already onto the objective.

03:45:20.300 --> 03:45:28.300
Lyon stepping forward, but they're doing it slowly. Don't go over the wall. Inspires on top of the drinkers, the calling forces go away, the Cogmox are already almost down.

03:45:28.300 --> 03:45:32.720
They go to make the play, season consists coming out from Konami, but he won't find a kill here just yet.

03:45:32.720 --> 03:45:38.820
Berserker is shut down, HLE finding a couple of kills, Gumiushi staying alive and fighting with Bull of the Zayas.

03:45:38.820 --> 03:45:47.120
HLE still to take the drag, it is secured by Lyon, Zaka still fighting here in 1v3, the main character.

03:45:47.120 --> 03:45:52.140
But Saint executes him, Gumiushi, the only man left alive.

03:45:52.140 --> 03:45:55.260
And Saint who took the dragon, he does it again!

03:45:55.260 --> 03:45:57.260
Wait, you're scaring me.

03:45:57.260 --> 03:45:59.760
They want to keep going. They think it's just KumaYushi.

03:45:59.760 --> 03:46:01.760
They were considering going for the end there.

03:46:01.760 --> 03:46:05.260
But when I was on social LHP, they decided to back away.

03:46:05.260 --> 03:46:07.760
But holy moly, what is this game, boys?

03:46:07.760 --> 03:46:11.760
It is insanity. It is LCS going toe to toe

03:46:11.760 --> 03:46:13.760
with one of the best teams in the world.

03:46:13.760 --> 03:46:17.260
And it is Dopla creating so much space to begin this fight,

03:46:17.260 --> 03:46:19.260
pushing back Kanavi.

03:46:19.260 --> 03:46:21.760
But it is HLE standing strong.

03:46:21.760 --> 03:46:23.760
They find Berzerker. Look at his hands on the flight.

03:46:23.760 --> 03:46:30.960
was marked by Al's got knocked back, but then in they go, they get in, back onto the solution, they burst them down.

03:46:30.960 --> 03:46:40.360
And it's Saint who dies the back line, Saint who manages to get the stasis, and when it all comes crashing down for HLE,

03:46:40.360 --> 03:46:46.860
it is Saint standing over them saying, I don't forgive you HLE, and they are here to play!

03:46:46.860 --> 03:46:53.260
And it is Guma living with one spell of health, or they would have won the game there, they would have been able to go down,

03:46:53.260 --> 03:46:57.260
But again, are they gonna catch one of the recall they spotted him, but Zeyas is there

03:46:57.700 --> 03:47:04.820
Both of these last fights the Zerkers Culling has found the heart of Guma Yushi the Kogma under so much pressure

03:47:04.980 --> 03:47:09.220
From these Lucian ultimates and it's making it hard for him to participate

03:47:09.220 --> 03:47:15.100
And it's also the build from the Lucian going for the Black Cleaver giving him that little bit of extra survivability

03:47:15.100 --> 03:47:19.380
That was crucial on the play in mid because the cozy campfire kept him topped up

03:47:19.380 --> 03:47:27.840
He survived for so long in that dragon fight and now Berserker finishing off the infinity edge for items for this Lucian

03:47:27.840 --> 03:47:31.760
He is so strong. He is so powerful and inspired was down three levels

03:47:31.760 --> 03:47:35.640
He's down less than one level now got so much experience from the Baron from these fights

03:47:36.160 --> 03:47:39.320
Dokla is relevant as far as gold goes as well

03:47:39.320 --> 03:47:46.040
He almost has his completed zonius and lion we got to see can they get it across the finish line here HLE

03:47:46.040 --> 03:47:50.720
so deadly in these fights. They've got a GA. They've got the Zonias on Zeus, and they've

03:47:50.720 --> 03:47:53.040
got the Infinity Edge on Zeca.

03:47:53.040 --> 03:47:58.480
Alright, battling the enemy red side jungle as Lyon tries to push forward. Inspired here

03:47:58.480 --> 03:48:01.880
in the front line, but Kennavi secures the red buff. Vaultbreaker channeled to make sure

03:48:01.880 --> 03:48:07.240
that he can get right back out. One and a half thousand gold lead for Saints. Zonias hour

03:48:07.240 --> 03:48:12.960
glass ready to go. Ten stacks on the Medjais. Seekers armguard for Dokla. Protoplasm harness

03:48:12.960 --> 03:48:14.160
for Inspired.

03:48:14.160 --> 03:48:18.160
It is the best slowing down the pace here for Lyon.

03:48:18.160 --> 03:48:23.160
Byron in 40 seconds. Keep the waves pushed in. Keep HLE on their side of the mouth.

03:48:23.160 --> 03:48:26.160
Don't let them look for more as Kanavi.

03:48:26.160 --> 03:48:29.160
Yeah Kanavi jumps in after inspired but he goes for the ball breaker.

03:48:29.160 --> 03:48:33.160
Immediately Kanavi backing right back away.

03:48:33.160 --> 03:48:38.160
Inspired's impaled, does pose a little bit of a threat but nobody is close enough to provide the damage.

03:48:38.160 --> 03:48:39.160
But now the calling comes out.

03:48:39.160 --> 03:48:39.660
To me!

03:48:39.660 --> 03:48:40.780
Say it's on the run!

03:48:40.780 --> 03:48:44.500
Lyon, looking for their angle here to try to end the game.

03:48:44.500 --> 03:48:45.880
Doku's made his way in.

03:48:45.880 --> 03:48:48.960
The Nexus turrets both standing at about 130 HP.

03:48:48.960 --> 03:48:50.580
HLE still trying to escape.

03:48:50.580 --> 03:48:51.940
Equalizer under the minion wave.

03:48:51.940 --> 03:48:52.740
They're on the towers!

03:48:52.740 --> 03:48:54.020
The Zercher putting damage under the towers.

03:48:54.020 --> 03:48:55.780
Kenavi still trying to enter into the fight.

03:48:55.780 --> 03:48:57.140
The Zercher attacking turrets.

03:48:57.140 --> 03:48:58.500
Kenavi here in the front line.

03:48:58.500 --> 03:48:59.540
Doku goes golden.

03:48:59.540 --> 03:49:00.540
Say it's just the same.

03:49:00.540 --> 03:49:01.540
Kenavi is down.

03:49:01.540 --> 03:49:02.940
Kenavi is gone.

03:49:02.940 --> 03:49:04.620
The Nexus is gone.

03:49:04.620 --> 03:49:07.620
Lyon are on match point.

03:49:07.620 --> 03:49:10.580
Lions are pulling off the miracle!

03:49:10.580 --> 03:49:16.140
They are on match point against the LCK's number one in Dajon!

03:49:16.140 --> 03:49:31.140
Closer than they've been in, I don't know how many years to doing the impossible shades of the FlyQuest almost upset being channeled, they are out playing HLLE at every turn!

03:49:31.140 --> 03:49:35.300
That is the closest they've been, they were up 2-1 in that series in 2024.

03:49:35.300 --> 03:49:40.500
Yeah, we are we are we are close to a historical series, but nobody takes anything everybody

03:49:43.460 --> 03:49:46.740
Okay, oh my we're losing that game they outplay

03:49:47.620 --> 03:49:51.300
It is literally not you know, it's not like oh, we're out copying or anything

03:49:51.460 --> 03:49:55.220
They outplay it is the juke the pivotal moment. Yone goes in

03:49:55.620 --> 03:50:00.500
Zack does yone goes in on inspired and he sidesteps him slams it into the wall

03:50:00.500 --> 03:50:06.340
They get to come back in that fight so much gold and then they consecutively win the fight to the game

03:50:06.780 --> 03:50:10.300
We thought it was over. We had a whole segment about how it was unstoppable

03:50:11.020 --> 03:50:15.920
Yeah, and this was pass out. It was just such okay. I'll take over so you guys can take a breather

03:50:16.320 --> 03:50:22.760
This was just such a massive team fight win from lion using the strength of

03:50:23.300 --> 03:50:28.660
Berserker who did get significantly far ahead, but it was kind of to the detriment of

03:50:28.660 --> 03:50:34.760
inspired right and the fact that they were able to have so much space for him

03:50:34.760 --> 03:50:40.360
was so so important and then this fight st. Just ends up absolutely having to

03:50:40.360 --> 03:50:44.920
beast this I mean this is where you would expect a possible joke because they

03:50:44.920 --> 03:50:47.960
had just overstayed in the base trying to end couldn't do it had to do this

03:50:47.960 --> 03:50:53.840
desperation plate and berserker died but sage just seems calm I feel like he's

03:50:53.840 --> 03:50:57.840
He's in such a flow state, he's laughing and he's cackling on camera.

03:50:57.840 --> 03:51:00.340
He's so clutch in all these fights.

03:51:00.340 --> 03:51:05.840
Yeah, as someone looking kind of from the outside in, right, a chelis don't seem secure in there.

03:51:05.840 --> 03:51:06.840
We can go to the chelis.

03:51:06.840 --> 03:51:08.840
Chelis, just push to the tower.

03:51:08.840 --> 03:51:09.840
It's because of Lyon.

03:51:09.840 --> 03:51:11.340
The tier is just cons at the end.

03:51:11.340 --> 03:51:12.840
Just down them, don't try to kill.

03:51:12.840 --> 03:51:13.840
Yeah, I'm ending, okay?

03:51:13.840 --> 03:51:15.840
Don't try to kill, don't try to kill.

03:51:15.840 --> 03:51:16.840
Hit the tower, hit the tower.

03:51:16.840 --> 03:51:18.840
Don't try to kill, don't try to kill, take it slow.

03:51:18.840 --> 03:51:20.340
Don't focus on ending, just play.

03:51:20.340 --> 03:51:21.840
Are you guys focusing on ending?

03:51:21.840 --> 03:51:27.140
Everyone at, everyone at, everyone at, everyone at, everyone at, you guys!

03:51:27.140 --> 03:51:28.140
Woo!

03:51:28.140 --> 03:51:30.020
This is so adorable!

03:51:30.020 --> 03:51:34.000
Let me remind you, you know with all this, oh, Saints smiling and they're joking in this

03:51:34.000 --> 03:51:38.760
high pressure situation in the biggest stage that they have played on together, this is

03:51:38.760 --> 03:51:39.760
the team.

03:51:39.760 --> 03:51:44.060
When Lion was formed, everyone said, they're gonna crash out, they're too toxic, they're

03:51:44.060 --> 03:51:47.240
all gonna just break apart and rage at each other.

03:51:47.240 --> 03:51:51.440
This is the team that is laughing while they're taking down the number one seed of the LCK.

03:51:51.440 --> 03:51:57.840
So I I mean okay sec third time ever and he's got a two-game wins within a best of five fly versus Gen.G

03:51:57.840 --> 03:52:02.720
And then that's really a freaking yeah in 2018. Yeah, this is historic

03:52:02.720 --> 03:52:07.460
Well, so here's the thing that we got away with I feel like in the four or five bands of this draft

03:52:07.920 --> 03:52:11.560
We banned Ari Cascio and gave over

03:52:12.200 --> 03:52:14.040
Yone rumble to bear with five

03:52:14.040 --> 03:52:19.780
I thought that was going to be the thing that was the top post in the thread that was that I can't believe we gave them this

03:52:19.780 --> 03:52:25.860
This is when the series turned and the fact that we won that game when they're on those contracts and can office

03:52:25.860 --> 03:52:30.540
4,000 gold ahead. I cannot believe it and here's where I want to really highlight berserker, right?

03:52:30.540 --> 03:52:36.020
Because we've talked about you had highlighted jet where you weren't necessarily super confident

03:52:36.260 --> 03:52:42.780
Because berserker until this point wasn't able to play with name plates off and the fact that he was so confident in

03:52:43.020 --> 03:52:47.740
those team in those interviews prior to this series about going up

03:52:47.740 --> 03:52:50.740
against his kind of, not necessarily team-based,

03:52:50.740 --> 03:52:54.920
but former organization mates in Kuma-Yushi.

03:52:54.920 --> 03:52:57.420
And then to have this kind of performance

03:52:57.420 --> 03:53:01.780
where he does end up putting the team on his back,

03:53:01.780 --> 03:53:04.820
it's his strength in so many of these fights

03:53:04.820 --> 03:53:07.100
that is really, really crucial.

03:53:07.100 --> 03:53:09.860
That's such a turning point for Berzerker

03:53:09.860 --> 03:53:11.820
specifically as a player.

03:53:11.820 --> 03:53:16.300
100% they gave Lyon one area to play off of.

03:53:16.300 --> 03:53:19.660
while inspired is three levels down to Kanavi,

03:53:19.660 --> 03:53:21.380
with Kanavi constantly making plays

03:53:21.380 --> 03:53:22.380
on the top side of the map

03:53:22.380 --> 03:53:24.260
and then counter jungling him as well

03:53:24.260 --> 03:53:27.100
because Berserker and Isle had good laning

03:53:27.100 --> 03:53:29.940
and because they punished and killed Guma-Yushi,

03:53:29.940 --> 03:53:32.820
Lines still had an area to bridge them over.

03:53:32.820 --> 03:53:33.660
Oh my God.

03:53:33.660 --> 03:53:35.820
And by time, until that crazy fight.

03:53:35.820 --> 03:53:37.220
And that fight was in mid lane.

03:53:37.220 --> 03:53:39.700
That's the one where they dodge Zeka

03:53:39.700 --> 03:53:41.060
and they're able to get the counter,

03:53:41.060 --> 03:53:42.820
they're able to get the turnaround

03:53:42.820 --> 03:53:44.620
and they're able to scale.

03:53:44.620 --> 03:53:49.020
5,000 gold down and you made a point during last game shocks

03:53:49.020 --> 03:53:53.420
Well, you're saying maybe we're not seeing the other side of it is HLE messing up

03:53:53.420 --> 03:53:56.460
I feel like both of these teams are actually quite nervous

03:53:56.460 --> 03:54:02.500
I think the inspired smite on scuttle crab when they were going both for level six is a very

03:54:03.060 --> 03:54:06.340
Uncharacteristic play for him if it's a losing fight if he's gonna lose Mike usually he backs away

03:54:06.340 --> 03:54:08.340
But it's I think a little uncharacteristic

03:54:08.340 --> 03:54:16.060
How fed they let Guma get how they couldn't close the game with a 5,000 gold lead and they lose a fight right in the mid lane

03:54:16.060 --> 03:54:19.420
So absolutely. It's always gotta be feeling it right now

03:54:19.420 --> 03:54:24.020
It's it's completely unacceptable for them to lose this and lose their world's fourth seed

03:54:24.020 --> 03:54:30.740
That's in the back of their minds and we've talked about HLE's mental composure sometimes failing in positions like this

03:54:30.740 --> 03:54:35.460
I'm gonna say I think this is the best chance you've ever had to beat that else

03:54:35.460 --> 03:54:42.980
I really think so. Look at everything. Look at the momentum of Lyon beating G2 so handily yesterday

03:54:42.980 --> 03:54:49.940
They weren't even in the conversation now. They push HLE after a 5,000 gold lead. How did they bring it home?

03:54:49.940 --> 03:54:53.020
Well, yeah, and I was gonna say from the HLE side

03:54:53.020 --> 03:54:57.180
I think this is massive right because like you said we've seen this team

03:54:57.460 --> 03:55:04.620
Kind of have struggles when the pressure is on when they get reverse swept and then can't close it out to qualify for tournaments

03:55:04.620 --> 03:55:13.820
Obviously some of the pieces have changed, but this is huge they should be feeling so confident have better team fight scaling is my one rule

03:55:14.620 --> 03:55:17.340
Don't let us I could get to game five. Let's just end it in four

03:55:19.260 --> 03:55:25.160
Callback, please lie and then in four. We'll see if HLE fights back and brings us the silver scrapes

03:56:04.620 --> 03:56:10.220
All right, it's your funeral.

03:56:10.220 --> 03:56:17.940
Hey kid, your bear's got better instincts than most parents.

03:56:17.940 --> 03:56:19.940
This is salvation.

03:56:19.940 --> 03:56:32.940
A moment of silence for the recently departing.

03:56:32.940 --> 03:56:44.580
Welcome to Argyne, now live in Shanghai, it's your time to step into the real Argyne world.

03:56:44.580 --> 03:56:50.300
This is absolutely the wildest Argyne carnival you will ever experience, follow at Immersive

03:56:50.300 --> 03:56:53.540
Argyne on X for the latest show update.

03:57:02.940 --> 03:57:04.940
The game is about to begin.

03:57:04.940 --> 03:57:12.940
The more you try, the more you will be able to cheer for the team.

03:57:12.940 --> 03:57:14.940
Do you understand?

03:57:14.940 --> 03:57:18.940
We will cheer for the team so that we can reach the players.

03:57:18.940 --> 03:57:20.940
Hello.

03:57:20.940 --> 03:57:22.940
Have you come here to cheer for the team?

03:57:22.940 --> 03:57:24.940
Of course.

03:57:24.940 --> 03:57:30.940
We will cheer for the team so that we can reach the players of the team.

03:57:30.940 --> 03:57:33.940
One life, fighting!

03:57:33.940 --> 03:57:35.940
Fighting!

03:57:35.940 --> 03:57:36.940
We won the first round.

03:57:36.940 --> 03:57:38.940
We're showing you the competition with Ryan.

03:57:38.940 --> 03:57:42.940
Let's start the event right away.

03:57:42.940 --> 03:57:44.940
You can pick one out of the two.

03:57:44.940 --> 03:57:45.940
It's both a gift.

03:57:45.940 --> 03:57:47.940
What is it?

03:57:47.940 --> 03:57:48.940
Please pick one.

03:57:48.940 --> 03:57:50.940
T-shirt!

03:57:50.940 --> 03:57:52.940
Congratulations!

03:57:52.940 --> 03:57:54.940
I'll give you a T-shirt as a gift.

03:57:54.940 --> 03:57:56.940
Anyone else want to pick one?

03:57:56.940 --> 03:57:58.940
Please pick one.

03:57:58.940 --> 03:58:02.940
Both of them are gifts.

03:58:02.940 --> 03:58:04.940
What is it?

03:58:04.940 --> 03:58:06.940
High-five!

03:58:06.940 --> 03:58:08.940
High-five with me!

03:58:08.940 --> 03:58:10.940
Good!

03:58:10.940 --> 03:58:12.940
Please come out.

03:58:12.940 --> 03:58:16.940
Please cheer for Gumaishi.

03:58:16.940 --> 03:58:18.940
Gumaishi, cheer for him.

03:58:18.940 --> 03:58:20.940
Gumaishi, cheer for him!

03:58:20.940 --> 03:58:22.940
High-five!

03:58:22.940 --> 03:58:24.940
Yes!

03:58:24.940 --> 03:58:26.940
Yes!

03:58:26.940 --> 03:58:27.940
Yes, that's good.

03:58:27.940 --> 03:58:30.940
Now, let's move on to the next challenge.

03:58:30.940 --> 03:58:31.940
Let's do it.

03:58:31.940 --> 03:58:34.940
Now, please pick one out of the two.

03:58:34.940 --> 03:58:35.940
High five!

03:58:35.940 --> 03:58:37.940
Yeah!

03:58:37.940 --> 03:58:38.940
That's good.

03:58:38.940 --> 03:58:40.940
Now, let's move on to the last challenge.

03:58:40.940 --> 03:58:42.940
Oh, what a cute doll.

03:58:42.940 --> 03:58:44.940
One by one, cheer for Esports.

03:58:44.940 --> 03:58:45.940
Good luck, Sunwoo.

03:58:45.940 --> 03:58:46.940
Good luck!

03:58:46.940 --> 03:58:49.940
Now, let's pick one out of the two.

03:58:49.940 --> 03:58:50.940
Let's see!

03:58:50.940 --> 03:58:51.940
Wait a minute.

03:58:51.940 --> 03:58:53.940
Are you disappointed?

03:58:53.940 --> 03:58:58.180
Ah, I'm sorry, this is a gift from H1GHR5!

03:58:58.180 --> 03:59:01.180
I've sent you a lot of support from H1GHR5.

03:59:01.180 --> 03:59:05.220
Let's have the last person to come and finish this right away.

03:59:05.220 --> 03:59:06.020
Please come out.

03:59:06.020 --> 03:59:09.460
Let's have a look at the last fan who's behind us.

03:59:09.460 --> 03:59:13.780
The last fan is T-Shirt! Congratulations!

03:59:13.780 --> 03:59:17.100
I hope you send us more passionate support.

03:59:17.100 --> 03:59:19.620
Let's meet the next set right away.

03:59:19.620 --> 03:59:21.100
Fighting!

03:59:23.940 --> 03:59:25.940
I

03:59:53.940 --> 04:00:00.940
It's a miracle! They are on match point against the LCK's number one in Daejeon!

04:00:04.940 --> 04:00:13.940
Oh my god, Lyon is up 2-1 against HLE and I found some fans, Rollswapped G2 fans for the day.

04:00:13.940 --> 04:00:18.940
Yes, after yesterday, they have our support today. It's been amazing watching them.

04:00:18.940 --> 04:00:21.940
After what they did to us, you still wanted to cheer for them?

04:00:21.940 --> 04:00:25.220
Yes, they played so well that we had to come and still give our support.

04:00:25.220 --> 04:00:26.220
Oh my god!

04:00:26.220 --> 04:00:31.380
Does it feel better losing to Lyon, knowing what they're doing to HLN right now?

04:00:31.380 --> 04:00:33.300
Oh, what they're doing is amazing right now.

04:00:33.300 --> 04:00:34.460
It definitely makes it feel better.

04:00:34.460 --> 04:00:35.460
Oh yeah.

04:00:35.460 --> 04:00:36.460
Do you think they can do it?

04:00:36.460 --> 04:00:37.460
Two and one right now.

04:00:37.460 --> 04:00:39.460
They want two in a row.

04:00:39.460 --> 04:00:40.460
They can do it.

04:00:40.460 --> 04:00:41.460
Oh yeah, they can do it.

04:00:41.460 --> 04:00:42.460
Who do you believe in?

04:00:42.460 --> 04:00:46.860
And Lyon, I believe, oh my gosh, I inspire him every time I see his plays.

04:00:46.860 --> 04:00:47.860
It's amazing.

04:00:47.860 --> 04:00:48.860
Yeah.

04:00:48.860 --> 04:00:50.220
He dropped the bomb in the interview.

04:00:50.220 --> 04:00:53.540
He drops the bomb in all the celebrations and yeah,

04:00:53.540 --> 04:00:54.620
in the end he's doing it.

04:00:54.620 --> 04:00:56.260
You guys want to give me a celebration?

04:00:56.260 --> 04:00:57.100
Yeah.

04:00:57.100 --> 04:00:58.420
One, two, three, let's go!

04:00:58.420 --> 04:00:59.260
Yeah!

04:01:02.620 --> 04:01:05.740
Love seeing the Lion fans show up in the audience,

04:01:05.740 --> 04:01:10.620
but even more, I love seeing Lion show up for North America,

04:01:10.620 --> 04:01:15.460
show up here in Daejeon versus the best team from Korea.

04:01:15.460 --> 04:01:18.820
And now it's Lion who only need one more game

04:01:18.820 --> 04:01:20.260
to take the series.

04:01:20.260 --> 04:01:24.780
But coming into the series to even get one game was looked at

04:01:24.780 --> 04:01:26.940
as something that would be incredibly hard.

04:01:26.940 --> 04:01:31.500
We saw what this team did to G2, what HLE did to them.

04:01:31.500 --> 04:01:34.060
So they have to stay on point.

04:01:34.060 --> 04:01:37.660
You cannot let your foot off the gas against HLE.

04:01:37.660 --> 04:01:41.420
You misstep and they can easily win two in a row.

04:01:41.420 --> 04:01:44.260
And now the question is how deep does that prep go?

04:01:44.260 --> 04:01:47.340
They seem to be exceptional from line, these three games.

04:01:47.340 --> 04:01:51.980
game one, it didn't quite work out for close fire, it has been doing them some serious

04:01:51.980 --> 04:01:57.500
favors. And as we get into this, the immediate Yorick ban, this season he chased for Dokla.

04:01:57.500 --> 04:02:01.500
Yeah, I was thinking about that, but I think there's also a possibility of going in towards

04:02:01.500 --> 04:02:08.140
the gnar even. They definitely will not give over Jace to Zayas, you can guarantee that.

04:02:08.140 --> 04:02:13.020
So the question is, you know, are they okay taking the Jace blind? How comfortable will

04:02:13.020 --> 04:02:17.280
Doka a feel on it. I feel like he held up pretty well in the 1v1 in the Gwen

04:02:17.280 --> 04:02:21.520
versus Rumble, but then Kanavi was just kind of taken over. Also in the team

04:02:21.520 --> 04:02:24.600
secret Wales game I was incredibly impressed with Doka on the chase as well.

04:02:24.600 --> 04:02:28.780
Had that big free man crash down onto people that really turned the game in

04:02:28.780 --> 04:02:32.840
their favor so well executed on the chase but I have to see that is going to be

04:02:32.840 --> 04:02:36.520
the plan is actually slowing down with the draft here. Yeah it's very interesting.

04:02:36.520 --> 04:02:39.200
I mean they might have been taken a little bit off guard by the York and then

04:02:39.200 --> 04:02:42.960
they kind of have to decide, you know, how do we want to play this out?

04:02:43.600 --> 04:02:47.880
Because, of course, Lyon does have first pick, so they would be the ones

04:02:47.880 --> 04:02:49.360
who would be able to grab the Jays if they want.

04:02:49.360 --> 04:02:53.000
HLE have to think, okay, if we can't play Yorick and we can't play Sion,

04:02:53.000 --> 04:02:57.040
two of the kind of common answers, what are we comfortable playing into the Jays?

04:02:57.080 --> 04:02:58.880
Are we okay giving it over?

04:02:59.280 --> 04:03:03.400
All right, we've got the Yorick, the Bane and the Bard, banned out by Lyon,

04:03:03.640 --> 04:03:06.320
Cassiopeia and Trundle, banned away by HLE.

04:03:06.480 --> 04:03:08.000
And now that we're on to game four,

04:03:08.000 --> 04:03:14.120
It's always these last two games in the best of five that really start to feel the pressure of fearless

04:03:14.120 --> 04:03:17.660
This is where the pools finally start to get tight. Yeah, absolutely

04:03:17.660 --> 04:03:20.720
I mean Olaf is something we have seen as an answer. So I think that is an option

04:03:20.720 --> 04:03:25.760
So each only have to just discuss it. Are they okay just playing whatever into it? Okay, they're gonna pick Jace for sure

04:03:25.760 --> 04:03:32.180
There's there's no way I feel like he gives a is the Jace. I think they just have too much respect for him on that champ

04:03:32.180 --> 04:03:34.180
I would be shocked if they do

04:03:34.180 --> 04:03:39.980
do, then maybe they go the Olaf, but I just think that matchup, the front looked easy,

04:03:39.980 --> 04:03:42.940
and Zayas is such a beast on it, this makes a lot of sense.

04:03:42.940 --> 04:03:46.780
And now, does Zayas go for the Olaf that we've seen a couple of times here, or does

04:03:46.780 --> 04:03:51.140
he not want to kind of bet his tournament life on a pick like that?

04:03:51.140 --> 04:03:55.580
And I feel like there's so much history here, you think back throughout what's like 15 years

04:03:55.580 --> 04:04:01.420
of Pro League of Legends now, NAJs being a meme for so long, going up against Zayas,

04:04:01.420 --> 04:04:07.420
one of the best Korean top laners, Kyrid, and he's the one who will now go up against

04:04:07.420 --> 04:04:13.260
that NHA, and we'll see if Dope will compile it, but HLE, instead, they are going to prioritize

04:04:13.260 --> 04:04:18.540
some serious lane power for bottom. Last game, remember Berserkman and Iles were 2v2

04:04:18.540 --> 04:04:22.300
killing them at level 2. This time around, Caitlyn Karma has some presence.

04:04:22.300 --> 04:04:25.620
But it's also not the style that we've seen from HLE, right? Like the whole talking point

04:04:25.620 --> 04:04:30.020
coming into this tournament was, Delight now unengaged. Delight actually being able to roam.

04:04:30.020 --> 04:04:34.480
having that impact him he's not bad by any means on the enchanters but falling

04:04:34.480 --> 04:04:38.000
back to what they had in the regular season it's not what I expected coming

04:04:38.000 --> 04:04:42.280
into this game for is it gonna be Camille Mel here are they willing to bet

04:04:42.280 --> 04:04:46.560
on that there's been a lot of criticism of already Camille of course or pike or

04:04:46.560 --> 04:04:49.400
something like that they could go towards blitz would be pretty crazy I

04:04:49.400 --> 04:04:53.440
think it is a melt bot for berserker which I want to see if he's ever played

04:04:53.440 --> 04:04:57.320
it in his career it's a pike so they are bringing it out there has been so many

04:04:57.320 --> 04:05:02.680
questions about Isle's ability to play on a pick like this. The Camille game

04:05:02.680 --> 04:05:07.400
against TSW was much better but his pipe game was a bit of a disaster you know

04:05:07.400 --> 04:05:11.600
was not looking comfortable on it whatsoever and you have a very hard to

04:05:11.600 --> 04:05:15.040
execute first three you're playing Jace you're playing Pike and you're playing

04:05:15.040 --> 04:05:18.200
it against some of the best players in the entire world. To be fair to us though

04:05:18.200 --> 04:05:22.080
the first Camille game not so hot second Camille game significantly better.

04:05:22.080 --> 04:05:26.120
Pike number two could be a lot better this time around as well especially with

04:05:26.120 --> 04:05:28.720
lanes, the player like this, Jace, that's what he is.

04:05:28.720 --> 04:05:31.760
The first male game in Pazerker's career

04:05:31.760 --> 04:05:34.640
could be the one that clenches him,

04:05:34.640 --> 04:05:37.280
the greatest performance of his career,

04:05:37.280 --> 04:05:39.240
if they are able to take down HLE.

04:05:39.240 --> 04:05:41.320
But the pressure is on, and the question is,

04:05:41.320 --> 04:05:44.240
how comfortable are you on these champs,

04:05:44.240 --> 04:05:47.200
given that we haven't seen a single-stage game of it

04:05:47.200 --> 04:05:50.360
from him, and the only pike game we've seen from Isles

04:05:50.360 --> 04:05:52.480
went very, very poorly.

04:05:52.480 --> 04:05:54.000
To be fair, though, I've been impressed with Pazerker

04:05:54.000 --> 04:05:55.840
when he's on the zig, so definitely feels

04:05:55.840 --> 04:06:00.680
comfortable on the majors and especially if they can't open up this ability to move around because I think it's fired

04:06:00.880 --> 04:06:06.720
Definitely would have liked to help in hand in the last one when Kenabe was in medium as jungle and with an inferior on the opposite side here

04:06:06.720 --> 04:06:09.220
I feel like that's gonna be the game plan again for HLE

04:06:09.220 --> 04:06:12.320
I mean it's gonna be so interesting because I agree he's been great on the Ziggs

04:06:12.320 --> 04:06:16.840
One of the things about the Ziggs is you have the inherent safety of this actual right? Mel does not have that

04:06:16.840 --> 04:06:20.800
I think the theory can be a problem for a champion like Mel

04:06:20.800 --> 04:06:24.940
There's not that much that's a reflect that's gonna really save you in a lot of these situations

04:06:24.940 --> 04:06:30.340
And it is Cassante. I wonder if they'll ban out the Olaf as well. Are they even concerned about it?

04:06:30.340 --> 04:06:37.340
The other thing I'm even more surprised by Lissandra ban from HLE, not a champion that has been very relevant in a while

04:06:37.340 --> 04:06:41.340
But they will also ban out St. Silas. Interesting. So clearly

04:06:42.540 --> 04:06:49.540
Lissandra to me says you want to go play maybe right? I think about Leblanc. Yeah, but then Silas, I don't feel like is that terrifying

04:06:49.540 --> 04:06:53.260
for the LeBlanc, so that's why I'm a little bit confused by it.

04:06:53.260 --> 04:06:56.560
There's also not really any good ults to steal yet at all on the HLE side.

04:06:56.560 --> 04:07:00.380
Maybe it's like a protection ban for something that they're going to go later on and they know that hey,

04:07:00.380 --> 04:07:03.000
like if we go hex, then you would want to take the Silas,

04:07:03.000 --> 04:07:06.060
but those two bans feel like they're going in different directions.

04:07:06.060 --> 04:07:09.620
It may be the Twisted Phase and something that are also looking out at the mid lanes that are like,

04:07:09.620 --> 04:07:12.900
you try and go for the TP, you decide your content, you look to you, that kind of spell,

04:07:12.900 --> 04:07:17.940
but still feels a little odd, but no, just going for a bit more stock standard.

04:07:17.940 --> 04:07:28.940
All right, Aurora locked in one and seven so far here at this MSI for this champion has not seen a whole lot of success so far.

04:07:28.940 --> 04:07:31.940
But remember, this is also still a flex pick.

04:07:31.940 --> 04:07:34.940
And also remember the sign was zero and nine. They won with that, right?

04:07:34.940 --> 04:07:39.940
You know, it does not indicate that they are going to be getting a free ride here by any means.

04:07:39.940 --> 04:07:41.940
Zeka is a beast on this champ.

04:07:41.940 --> 04:07:45.940
I do like the Wukong. I think it is a powerful team fight champion into this.

04:07:45.940 --> 04:07:51.540
into this and he makes a lot of sense as well gives you some engage is a pretty good matchup into the Aurora

04:07:51.540 --> 04:07:54.740
The only other thing in question is maybe a pantheon because the idea of hey

04:07:54.740 --> 04:08:00.260
We've got early access to the map level three level four work with this bike to try and make plays exactly

04:08:00.260 --> 04:08:05.460
But we'll have to see and yeah, it looks like that might be the call here to try and match the nefiri presence as well

04:08:05.460 --> 04:08:09.300
Yeah, I mean I like both the pantheon and the wukong. I'd be pretty happy either way

04:08:09.860 --> 04:08:15.000
The big question everyone's mind is going to be what will say us bet their series on here to me

04:08:15.000 --> 04:08:21.400
I'm still thinking about that robot. There is angles for things like my mouth fight and you can go really kind of more out of left

04:08:21.400 --> 04:08:24.360
Field things that are the more like solo queue answers in towards the Jays

04:08:24.360 --> 04:08:27.680
There's a reliant some of these more aggressive picks and sometimes people like to bring out but

04:08:28.240 --> 04:08:31.320
Just like so much engaged though on HLE side

04:08:31.320 --> 04:08:32.840
You know what decent poke here

04:08:32.840 --> 04:08:35.800
So I think maybe that could be it like try and go for some of the house

04:08:36.120 --> 04:08:41.360
But they think why would you save it right? That's the thing that I that's making it hard. It could actually be a roar of top

04:08:41.360 --> 04:08:43.520
I think it's a roar of top. I called the flex

04:08:43.520 --> 04:08:46.720
Yeah, so I think it is going to be a roar top. I think it's going to be swaying men

04:08:46.720 --> 04:08:47.920
So they are moving things around

04:08:47.920 --> 04:08:53.000
I think swaying is a tough pick to answer but it could also be you know both I mean right now

04:08:53.000 --> 04:08:56.680
Zeus is the one who is in control of this either way

04:08:56.680 --> 04:09:04.040
There is you know pretty short-range champion in the any there's two of these kind of playmaking champions like the pantheon and the pipe

04:09:04.040 --> 04:09:09.600
And you're gonna have to try to be fighting through this swaying who's gonna be buffed up by the karma

04:09:09.600 --> 04:09:12.660
Kind of similar style to like almost those bruisers plus the chairs

04:09:12.660 --> 04:09:15.600
I haven't seen the swap come through yet, but I think he's just gonna play it off

04:09:15.600 --> 04:09:18.580
Yeah, so I I think I would have prepared in the mid lane though

04:09:18.580 --> 04:09:23.340
But the the never move sure if you can connect with it does not mean the Jays comes in range

04:09:23.340 --> 04:09:27.320
But Jays never really wants to be up close and personal with the swing anyway

04:09:27.320 --> 04:09:29.320
So I think you should be able to try dodge away

04:09:29.320 --> 04:09:35.780
I mean, I think the one thing I will say is that if you ever are fishing with the never move in a matchup like this as

04:09:35.780 --> 04:09:38.560
Swain then he goes hammer form and you get sling right

04:09:38.560 --> 04:09:40.560
Yeah, you know you have to kind of whittle away at it

04:09:40.560 --> 04:09:46.320
I am seeing it more than ever move as a response to a to a hammer form Q if he's jumping forward you throw out the E

04:09:46.320 --> 04:09:50.480
Maybe pull him back. You can drop the defensive W. So he's jumping into that

04:09:50.480 --> 04:09:54.740
You know getting those souls is both really big in the lane because you're getting the heel

04:09:54.740 --> 04:09:58.320
But it's also really big for actually stacking HP for swing later on

04:09:58.360 --> 04:10:02.800
If you're not able to get any access towards souls if they just kind of don't interact with you

04:10:02.840 --> 04:10:05.120
You're a lot less tanky in the two fights later on

04:10:05.120 --> 04:10:11.440
But just not a tonic consistent damage on the side of lion which I think is where the idea of the swing is coming from

04:10:11.640 --> 04:10:17.840
Exactly just drain tank through it unless you get instagip you're going to survive for a very long time

04:10:18.440 --> 04:10:24.120
Here we go Hanwha life eSports their life on the line here in this game

04:10:24.360 --> 04:10:31.000
Win and you go to silver scrims lose and your MSI journey ends just short of the finals

04:10:31.000 --> 04:10:33.220
And that would be an absolute shock here.

04:10:33.220 --> 04:10:38.540
MSI in Korea, T1 shockingly knocked out by G2.

04:10:38.540 --> 04:10:40.500
If both of their teams were knocked out,

04:10:40.500 --> 04:10:41.920
it would be a repeat of first hand

04:10:41.920 --> 04:10:45.000
where we saw G2 taking out both those LCK teams.

04:10:45.000 --> 04:10:47.640
But to lose both of your seeds in best of fives

04:10:47.640 --> 04:10:49.420
to Western teams, back-to-back tournaments

04:10:49.420 --> 04:10:50.520
would be unheard of.

04:10:50.520 --> 04:10:52.160
Especially when you look at, again,

04:10:52.160 --> 04:10:54.220
the mental world champions that are on this team,

04:10:54.220 --> 04:10:56.440
they want to try and add that MSI into the mix.

04:10:56.440 --> 04:10:59.480
We're even talking about Zeya and Gumi Ushi fighting

04:10:59.480 --> 04:11:06.040
with Viper to be the first players to have all the trophies, those three across the year

04:11:06.040 --> 04:11:13.240
in their trophy cabinets, to now step out at this stage. Honestly, unspeakable when we

04:11:13.240 --> 04:11:14.880
started coming into this tournament.

04:11:14.880 --> 04:11:19.200
Doku, great side step there from Zaeus, and he has actually hit three Qs in a row now

04:11:19.200 --> 04:11:22.760
on Doku, and Doku's going to be in trouble. He's out of potions, and Zaeus is going for

04:11:22.760 --> 04:11:27.280
level two. Doku's going to have to base, I think. That is a bit of a disaster for Doku.

04:11:27.280 --> 04:11:34.380
Shot Blast gets sidestepped and he's not able to sidestep any of those little laser hands going out there from Zayas

04:11:34.380 --> 04:11:40.320
And he goes W to even delay the base so being very annoying and now trying to make sure he gets his way then

04:11:40.320 --> 04:11:43.720
But I think Doku with the push now coming in is just gonna get some of that XP

04:11:43.720 --> 04:11:44.120
Yep

04:11:44.120 --> 04:11:48.360
Doku leveling up to two so he'll get a little bit of extra stats for that get a little bit of extra health

04:11:48.360 --> 04:11:53.860
Does not want to miss out on this wave solar snare the lives of the good me you see in the bone skewers ready to follow it

04:11:53.860 --> 04:11:59.060
Iles goes into the sun forcing the flash of the HLE 80 carry and that's cleanse gone as well

04:11:59.060 --> 04:12:05.500
That's he'll gone as well. That is a lot of tools and now Guma you want to play pushing when you are playing Caitlyn karma

04:12:05.500 --> 04:12:09.180
You've got no sums here inspired to visit later on

04:12:09.180 --> 04:12:13.020
It's gonna be so much harder for them to actually push and imagine he gets caught here

04:12:13.420 --> 04:12:21.060
Nope, not quite not quite you can see this is the third time the LCS has ever taken two games off of the LCK

04:12:21.060 --> 04:12:27.220
previously hold on let's see if the light can make the move on the saint Rome

04:12:27.220 --> 04:12:30.700
does get the flash out of the lion mid laner and that's gonna make st. Very

04:12:30.700 --> 04:12:33.740
vulnerable so July using that small window that he had is gonna use you

04:12:33.740 --> 04:12:37.740
have to reset to move towards mid only level two so didn't have access to the

04:12:37.740 --> 04:12:42.380
tether but it does burn that summoner spell so we've got many lanes but these

04:12:42.380 --> 04:12:46.300
junglers will be looking at now yeah and doklah thankfully for him this shoved in

04:12:46.300 --> 04:12:50.500
that way of expecting the base we pick up enough was able to you know get back

04:12:50.500 --> 04:12:53.740
here to lane he's gonna be looking to push it in reset one more time though and

04:12:53.740 --> 04:12:58.300
does have the support behind him yeah but that first purchase for Dokla does

04:12:58.300 --> 04:13:02.980
not feel good refillable potion being the only thing you can add to inventory so

04:13:02.980 --> 04:13:06.420
yes the support roam from Isle's going to be critical for getting this wave

04:13:06.420 --> 04:13:10.540
crashed exactly that's all he's looking to do is just reset that wave one more

04:13:10.540 --> 04:13:15.220
time with a better buy here is inspired looking for the reinvade they do have the

04:13:15.220 --> 04:13:18.260
push and they have pike on this side of the map yep Isle's is making his way

04:13:18.260 --> 04:13:23.780
over, inspired, does steal away the big chicken. As Isles will find Kanavi about to face check

04:13:23.780 --> 04:13:27.140
into him into the brush here. St. Trading with Zeka in mid lane at the same time. They

04:13:27.140 --> 04:13:31.140
want to make the move onto Kanavi. He goes up the wall, he stays alive. Isles still chasing,

04:13:31.140 --> 04:13:36.020
but there's no more damage ready to go. Inspired use his flash there. Kanavi used his own. Flash

04:13:36.020 --> 04:13:40.180
for flash, Kanavi's forced out of the jungle, and now Zayas hanging on up here in the top lane.

04:13:40.180 --> 04:13:45.620
Dokla is very low on mana, but inspired, he has all of the charges there in his passive.

04:13:45.620 --> 04:13:49.820
Dokla's gonna just try to use the two disguise, get this wave shoved up as fast as possible.

04:13:49.820 --> 04:13:56.020
Allow Lyon to try to make the play here. Meanwhile, then to the bottom lane, Solar Snare coming out from Berserker trying to keep himself safe, reflects the headshot.

04:13:56.020 --> 04:13:59.520
Does take a chunk of damage, but up here in the top lane now, and Seiya's gonna be your target.

04:13:59.520 --> 04:14:05.420
They jump in for the Pantheon stun, they get the damage. Seiya's just down, Kanavi wanted to come in and try to help his top laner.

04:14:05.420 --> 04:14:14.120
But instead, Kanavi gets one back! Beautifully done! As Call of the Pack gets him away! Lyon! Lyon gets a trade back again!

04:14:14.120 --> 04:14:21.000
It's a double kill for Kenavi. Iles flashes in to get the jungler, trades his own life for it, and it's 2 for 2 in the top side.

04:14:21.000 --> 04:14:27.460
It's 2 for 2, but Zeiss end up losing a ton of minions to that tower. Ends up falling down when it comes towards the gold.

04:14:27.460 --> 04:14:34.400
It's trying to shove in that top end as quickly as possible to make...actually, it's just going to hold the wave to make sure that you can try and snowball that back a little bit.

04:14:34.400 --> 04:14:36.300
But it is a win, honestly, for Dokla.

04:14:36.300 --> 04:14:43.500
It's a big win for Dokla there. He gets the kill. Kenavi does get a couple kills, but also credit to Berserker staying safe in that bot lane.

04:14:43.500 --> 04:14:47.820
He was in 1v2 that entire time, the Karma never moved, and Berserker is staying dead even.

04:14:47.820 --> 04:14:51.420
And this is the reason why we've seen this kind of transition to the Major's bot lane.

04:14:51.420 --> 04:14:54.140
They're incredibly good at being able to solo clear their waves,

04:14:54.140 --> 04:14:56.940
and then you're able to get the solo XP as well.

04:14:56.940 --> 04:15:00.940
So you end up having a little bit of advantage there, but hang on Oz, vision for Zayas.

04:15:00.940 --> 04:15:04.940
Yep, Ile's trying to make a play before Zayas has the demonic ascension ready to go.

04:15:04.940 --> 04:15:09.340
They drop the ignite, and Zayas is killed a second time.

04:15:09.340 --> 04:15:13.100
Kanavi wants to get one back in the dark and Dagriff will do just that!

04:15:13.100 --> 04:15:17.660
Kanavi with a return kill on the doklah and the game stays tied 3-3.

04:15:17.660 --> 04:15:23.420
Kanavi again back-to-back games putting on a clinic here it feels like 800 gold lead for him

04:15:23.420 --> 04:15:26.060
but credit to Iles who has been playing well they're looking for a dive.

04:15:26.060 --> 04:15:31.980
Yup Delight trying to facilitate Kanavi getting yet another kill Iles tries to get away gets a good

04:15:31.980 --> 04:15:38.060
stun Delight's gonna die to the turret yes Iles will fall but again it's one for one

04:15:38.060 --> 04:15:40.960
8 kills on the board, 6 minutes into the game.

04:15:40.960 --> 04:15:45.760
I apologize for doubting you, because he's playing a great game so far, it feels like on the pike.

04:15:45.760 --> 04:15:49.700
But the guard dog for the birdhouse is kinda taking over right now.

04:15:49.700 --> 04:15:54.000
4-1 for Kenavi, he is huge on this to theory.

04:15:54.000 --> 04:15:59.820
We saw him get a lead in the last game, but this pick has way more damage in the tank

04:15:59.820 --> 04:16:02.700
and can assassinate so many of the key members of the line.

04:16:02.700 --> 04:16:05.960
It really can, but at the same time it is a very fragile pick.

04:16:05.960 --> 04:16:11.060
You're not going to see Konavi in the middle of the entire team tanking up all the CC that he did in the last time.

04:16:11.060 --> 04:16:13.580
And you look at point and click CC from Inspired.

04:16:13.580 --> 04:16:20.360
Tiber's point and click CC from Sankt and so much burst, so he has got to be perfect with his call of the pack.

04:16:20.360 --> 04:16:23.200
If he can immune those key spells, he can take over.

04:16:23.200 --> 04:16:25.960
But one misstep, one stun, could be lights out.

04:16:26.900 --> 04:16:30.660
Alright, let's check in on the rest of the map since never mind, okay, we don't have time.

04:16:30.660 --> 04:16:32.160
Demonic Ascension coming out from Seya.

04:16:32.160 --> 04:16:37.280
Delight makes his roam up here into the topside looking to help Dokla out, but inspired has arrived here for the ulti

04:16:37.800 --> 04:16:41.960
Seias and Delight getting themselves away that is heal and flash from Delight

04:16:42.280 --> 04:16:49.620
No sonar spells used by the lion side the small slow was enough to keep inspired out of range of Seias

04:16:49.620 --> 04:16:52.880
But Isle's still fishing up here in the theory on the way as well

04:16:52.880 --> 04:16:57.740
I think line just want to make sure that Dokla can get the reset safely and he will do just that

04:16:57.740 --> 04:17:03.880
Yeah, exactly and Isles you know has that gold lead it is actually pretty significant for a pike when you get this early gold

04:17:03.880 --> 04:17:10.040
The amount of damage you can put out matters a lot in these early fights bursting people low enough in

04:17:10.280 --> 04:17:14.720
Combination with the ante. It's all about the resets all about that first kill four line

04:17:14.720 --> 04:17:19.340
They want to get someone low get the pike all take him out quick and try to snowball the fight

04:17:19.340 --> 04:17:23.740
And also with those kills he's been able to keep up an experience the light has been much more situated

04:17:23.740 --> 04:17:27.500
get towards that bot side of the get-go, but now I was accelerated as well,

04:17:27.500 --> 04:17:31.040
can get towards that level 6, which adds so much depth to that.

04:17:31.040 --> 04:17:33.780
Plus, that ignite is so good against Zeus.

04:17:33.780 --> 04:17:36.420
Like, trying to keep him from healing up is going to be crucial,

04:17:36.420 --> 04:17:40.520
and if he goes low health, that's where that depth from below becomes so valuable.

04:17:40.520 --> 04:17:44.620
Both supports hanging out up here yet again as Kenavi is first up into the topside.

04:17:44.620 --> 04:17:49.260
Dokla to the skies, trying to get himself away, but Kenavi, he's got the damage!

04:17:49.260 --> 04:17:52.960
And he keeps himself alive with Call of the Pack, HLE, coming out on top.

04:17:52.960 --> 04:17:54.960
Dokla hitting back pretty hard there.

04:17:54.960 --> 04:17:57.680
Would have had him if it wasn't for Delight being in the back pocket,

04:17:57.680 --> 04:17:59.600
but Kanabi another kill here.

04:17:59.600 --> 04:18:01.280
Five now to his name.

04:18:01.280 --> 04:18:03.400
Oh, Ios goes into the bone skewer.

04:18:03.400 --> 04:18:04.800
Interrupts Kanabi's recall,

04:18:04.800 --> 04:18:07.400
but it's not like he can threaten anything lethal here.

04:18:07.400 --> 04:18:09.520
And look at Botlay, no one answering that right now.

04:18:09.520 --> 04:18:10.960
Xehas had that push.

04:18:10.960 --> 04:18:14.200
The bone skewer, though, does give inspired time on the void grove.

04:18:14.200 --> 04:18:16.320
So all three, it looks like he'll be going across.

04:18:16.320 --> 04:18:19.920
There's a little bit of damage there towards Ios.

04:18:19.920 --> 04:18:22.000
But now, as you say, Dokla matching bot wave.

04:18:22.000 --> 04:18:28.120
So line kind of getting the map back, but it is that small gold lead mostly off the back of Canaver here for HLE.

04:18:28.120 --> 04:18:38.420
And that is all three grubs for Lyon as you called out, you know, the interrupt on that a recall from Canavi allows inspired time to get that inspired obviously very far behind as he was last game.

04:18:38.420 --> 04:18:43.520
But still he's within touching distance of experience, though he is very far down in gold.

04:18:43.520 --> 04:18:50.200
So much more relevant than he was in the last one here in Isles now level five as he gets that level six, it is going to be critical.

04:18:50.200 --> 04:18:52.900
So what they're doing at the moment is line shifting Berserker down

04:18:52.900 --> 04:18:56.300
because he has the level advantage over Dokla to try and interact with the Dragon.

04:18:56.300 --> 04:19:00.400
They saw Goomir using the topside, so Dokla knowing he'll be okay to catch this wave.

04:19:00.400 --> 04:19:06.000
But too many shamanigans is going to try and do so, but HLE not feeling confident to start up this objective.

04:19:06.000 --> 04:19:11.600
Just getting the vision down and waiting to see if they can find a pick, maybe on Berserker and a side link.

04:19:11.600 --> 04:19:15.100
Yeah, we'll see if they can do that. They do have a ton of vision around that Dragon though.

04:19:15.100 --> 04:19:18.900
You can see the entire area littered with HLE wards.

04:19:18.900 --> 04:19:25.640
So they will have full info on anything they're trying to do as Isles and St. are here and matched by Kanabi.

04:19:25.640 --> 04:19:30.240
Alright, 5-4 for HLE with control over the Spotside River.

04:19:30.240 --> 04:19:36.100
It's another slow dragon game, but very understandably so with how much attention has been in the top lane.

04:19:36.100 --> 04:19:40.040
HLE should try and start this now though. Xeus has matched open the top side.

04:19:40.040 --> 04:19:42.900
He has that teleport to try and join in if they need to.

04:19:42.900 --> 04:19:46.060
And you can see Kanabi already comfortable to try and make that play.

04:19:46.060 --> 04:19:49.280
the Saints trying to get some poke on to Zeke in the mid lane.

04:19:49.280 --> 04:19:51.960
But here's the see if they do push Zeke back.

04:19:51.960 --> 04:19:53.960
Does St. just walk up towards this topside?

04:19:53.960 --> 04:19:56.680
It's a big wave and you've got the Pantheon to cover as well.

04:19:56.680 --> 04:19:59.000
Yep, that might be the play, but it looks like inspired

04:19:59.000 --> 04:20:02.080
and St. both going to go for a recall instead.

04:20:02.080 --> 04:20:04.040
They know that Zeus is underneath his turret.

04:20:04.040 --> 04:20:06.600
Diving Swain even with a numbers advantage

04:20:06.600 --> 04:20:08.280
can be very, very difficult.

04:20:08.280 --> 04:20:09.760
It's super dangerous.

04:20:09.760 --> 04:20:11.080
Meanwhile, back in bottom lane,

04:20:11.080 --> 04:20:14.160
Berserker just reflects the Interflame back towards Delight.

04:20:14.160 --> 04:20:15.880
Bone skewer from Isles.

04:20:15.880 --> 04:20:18.520
That flash was not what he was hoping for.

04:20:18.520 --> 04:20:20.040
No, it's a bit of a swing and a miss there.

04:20:20.040 --> 04:20:21.000
Tried to go for the big play.

04:20:21.000 --> 04:20:22.480
Delight was missing his flash.

04:20:22.480 --> 04:20:23.680
That's why he sends it.

04:20:23.680 --> 04:20:26.920
Because if he catches Delight there, Delight is dead to rights.

04:20:26.920 --> 04:20:27.920
You get stunned up.

04:20:27.920 --> 04:20:28.680
You get rooted up.

04:20:28.680 --> 04:20:30.360
You get burst down, but they're looking for Jace.

04:20:30.360 --> 04:20:32.720
Speaking of dead to rights, Dockla trying to get away again.

04:20:32.720 --> 04:20:34.080
Side step's vision of Empire.

04:20:34.080 --> 04:20:36.000
But Kanavi lands the first darkened dagger.

04:20:36.000 --> 04:20:37.600
Dockla with the side step there with a second.

04:20:37.600 --> 04:20:39.280
Never move, finds no target.

04:20:39.280 --> 04:20:42.960
Dockla jumps back in, and it forces the demonic ascension

04:20:42.960 --> 04:20:44.000
from Zaeus.

04:20:44.000 --> 04:20:45.600
From Zaeus, excuse me.

04:20:45.600 --> 04:20:51.720
Chris Cross and my top laners here as Big Dokes gets the outplay inspired down here in the bottom lane yet again

04:20:51.880 --> 04:20:56.000
Trying to find some sort of a move delight in Gumi-Yushi staying away for now

04:20:56.240 --> 04:21:00.760
Isles eats a massive amount of pain there from Gumi-Yushi to Katelyn

04:21:00.960 --> 04:21:06.560
Warding away. There's attempted play from Lyon. So both side laners gonna breathe a breath of relief there

04:21:06.840 --> 04:21:12.080
Dokla not having to burn the flash is crucial because he managed to keep himself safe from the side lane

04:21:12.080 --> 04:21:16.720
And also the turn right on to Isles means that HLE's bot lane will live to fight another day

04:21:16.720 --> 04:21:21.640
Yeah, they absolutely well that was that was so critical from Guma being able to trap up Isles get him low

04:21:21.640 --> 04:21:26.720
Being able to force out that Aegis assault early from inspired. Otherwise, I thought they were gonna get dove and doko

04:21:26.720 --> 04:21:29.120
Also getting the alt off of Zeus quite big as well

04:21:29.120 --> 04:21:32.320
You know that was a bit of a miss that he thought he was in with a chance there

04:21:32.320 --> 04:21:38.640
But stepped into tower range and does have to use that alt as a result has his Rylai's now completed

04:21:38.640 --> 04:21:40.640
So it was just rushing towards that.

04:21:40.640 --> 04:21:45.640
That is a big one. It makes it so much harder to actually kite out the ult from Swain,

04:21:45.640 --> 04:21:47.440
which keeps that thing chugging along.

04:21:47.440 --> 04:21:51.740
And one thing that I also think is very important here, inspired with his Sundered Sky, now done.

04:21:51.740 --> 04:21:56.140
We talked about how accelerated Kanabi is as the owner of all five kills on HLE,

04:21:56.140 --> 04:21:58.740
but it's one fully completed item to one in the jungle.

04:21:58.740 --> 04:22:02.140
As they just get spotted going into that bush, you can see the pinks from Zaeus.

04:22:02.140 --> 04:22:08.240
The invisibility not quite getting them into that hurt bush, so immediately Zaeus backs away

04:22:08.240 --> 04:22:10.640
And then May set a page at Lee to try and look for a plane.

04:22:10.640 --> 04:22:12.160
Now they know where the support is.

04:22:12.160 --> 04:22:13.520
Yup, Sane's going to be your target.

04:22:13.520 --> 04:22:15.080
Zeke goes in between worlds.

04:22:15.080 --> 04:22:18.720
Kanavi thinks about it, but he doesn't want to dive towards Sane,

04:22:18.720 --> 04:22:20.320
who has the tippers ready to go.

04:22:20.320 --> 04:22:23.520
Exactly. And if you dive to that side, that's where Inspired was.

04:22:23.520 --> 04:22:26.480
And they knew that because Kanavi was coming from the bottom side of the map.

04:22:26.480 --> 04:22:28.800
So they're not sure how close he is.

04:22:28.800 --> 04:22:30.240
Miles stepping forward here.

04:22:30.240 --> 04:22:32.520
See Zeke does not want to try to do anything crazy.

04:22:32.520 --> 04:22:34.000
Sane is still very hard.

04:22:34.000 --> 04:22:36.680
Inspired jumps into the ulti, going in after Kanavi,

04:22:36.680 --> 04:22:40.560
tries to take the enemy jungler low, the root from the light, but he flashes over the wall.

04:22:40.560 --> 04:22:42.440
Now Zeke is trying to make some sort of a play.

04:22:42.440 --> 04:22:48.520
Kanavi barely survives. Zeke gives him the same X marks the spot where Zeke is buried in the mid lane.

04:22:48.520 --> 04:22:51.560
Lion get a one for nothing. They're looking for a little bit more,

04:22:51.560 --> 04:22:55.440
but they will not find it. Just the single kill play from Lion.

04:22:55.440 --> 04:22:58.960
Yeah, very narrowly avoided the death onto Kanavi, which was big.

04:22:58.960 --> 04:23:03.000
The shield came in from Karma to absorb that ultimate coming through there from Berserker.

04:23:03.000 --> 04:23:04.560
Bulkla has the eyes on it.

04:23:04.560 --> 04:23:07.140
Both of them slow on the shock blast, but...

04:23:07.140 --> 04:23:10.340
It is very nice of Lyle to take the training weights off of Lyle's dough in the pike

04:23:10.340 --> 04:23:12.740
because he has been insane in this game.

04:23:12.740 --> 04:23:15.920
Catching on the edge of that depth from below as well.

04:23:15.920 --> 04:23:17.720
Setting up for that other kill.

04:23:17.720 --> 04:23:20.080
Keeping this game within touching distance.

04:23:20.080 --> 04:23:24.220
Like 800 gold, but how much action we've had is absolutely insane.

04:23:24.220 --> 04:23:26.960
I mean, I've just been blown away by Lyle's this whole series.

04:23:26.960 --> 04:23:29.300
The poppy game was incredible.

04:23:29.300 --> 04:23:35.800
His engages have been so stellar throughout the series across, you know, a bunch of different styles of picks.

04:23:35.800 --> 04:23:40.000
He is right place, right time. His Muleo, it didn't feel like he said a foot wrong.

04:23:40.000 --> 04:23:41.700
He's been really playing brilliantly.

04:23:41.700 --> 04:23:47.500
And I think he's feeling himself like the fact that we have Isle's Pike versus Delight's Karma

04:23:47.500 --> 04:23:51.100
is the exact opposite of what I would have expected coming into this game for.

04:23:51.100 --> 04:23:54.900
And I think it has been a major turning point four line in this game.

04:23:54.900 --> 04:23:55.900
And I mean, what are they called?

04:23:55.900 --> 04:23:59.200
Once again, same's going to be the target, but he gets away in time.

04:23:59.200 --> 04:24:04.200
I mean, one of the coolest things, people have talked a lot about Dohkla, he is an amazing story and should be talked about a lot,

04:24:04.200 --> 04:24:11.200
but Iles also kind of goes under the radar as this player who was honestly stuck on bottom teams for such a long time,

04:24:11.200 --> 04:24:17.200
and there's so many players who come through the league, you spend a couple splits on a bottom team, you can never really shine as a result,

04:24:17.200 --> 04:24:22.200
and then you're bounced out of the league, he gets a shot online, and people were doubting, people were saying,

04:24:22.200 --> 04:24:28.200
why didn't they get Iles with these two MVP's and Preserker inspired, he's made the most of this opportunity.

04:24:28.200 --> 04:24:37.800
Dockla, using the ghost blade now to get some distance between himself and the approaching HLE collapse inspired in Dockla both backing away from what would have been a 3 vs 2.

04:24:37.800 --> 04:24:42.700
Important to note, 10 seconds until the Rift Herald, 15 seconds until the next Drake spawns.

04:24:42.700 --> 04:24:48.400
So we will have that interesting situation where neutral objectives are available at both sides of the map at the same time.

04:24:48.400 --> 04:24:50.600
And it does feel like we're kind of getting that cross map right.

04:24:50.600 --> 04:24:53.100
Oils is doing a good job of getting deep vision on this top end.

04:24:53.100 --> 04:24:56.100
I don't really feel like HLE are in a position to contest this.

04:24:56.100 --> 04:25:00.500
especially as you can see Kanabi realizing that he's going to go take the dragon for himself.

04:25:00.500 --> 04:25:04.740
I imagine Inspired will start to shift over towards that other objective in just a couple of moments.

04:25:04.740 --> 04:25:09.340
I mean this is just kind of the lion classic, right? They love playing the sidelines, they love prioritizing gold,

04:25:09.340 --> 04:25:11.740
they have done it all year long in NA.

04:25:11.740 --> 04:25:16.500
They're very willing to give up a couple dragons and try to build a gold lead elsewhere.

04:25:16.500 --> 04:25:19.300
And they see that as a very worthy objective.

04:25:19.300 --> 04:25:22.740
I will say Mounsoul goes crazy in this game for both teams.

04:25:22.740 --> 04:25:27.400
There is so much up front burst on both compositions when you're thinking about Aurora to Fury,

04:25:27.400 --> 04:25:30.480
you're thinking about Pyke, you're thinking about Annie and Pantheon to Jace,

04:25:30.480 --> 04:25:34.480
it is going to be so devastating for either side if they can claim Soul.

04:25:34.860 --> 04:25:37.580
We're not actually getting the response on the objective from Lyne.

04:25:37.580 --> 04:25:42.080
There is a ward for HLE on the Rift heralds, and there is Pings going down,

04:25:42.080 --> 04:25:46.440
so despite the vision Lyne wanted to reset before they really looked for this objective,

04:25:46.440 --> 04:25:47.940
Zekka in Trouble Boat.

04:25:47.940 --> 04:25:49.440
Yup, immediately pulled.

04:25:49.440 --> 04:25:54.040
Oh, Flash! For the dive as Isles makes the kill.

04:25:54.040 --> 04:25:56.840
But now, he and Sane are ready for the Peloport to arrive.

04:25:56.840 --> 04:26:00.380
HLE trying to find a counterplay as Inspired meets Kanavi in the dry brush.

04:26:00.380 --> 04:26:03.580
Zeyas in the middle of three trying to tank with a demonic ascension.

04:26:03.580 --> 04:26:07.980
But instead, he finds himself dead alongside his ally.

04:26:07.980 --> 04:26:13.680
Both solo laners on HLE eliminated as Lyon finds a 2000 gold lead.

04:26:13.680 --> 04:26:14.800
They're not done yet.

04:26:14.800 --> 04:26:16.600
Isles, Sainton, Dokla still hanging around.

04:26:16.600 --> 04:26:24.600
Cannabi with 1.38 feet, bone skewer, misses. Iles won't get anything more, but a 3,000 gold lead for Lyon.

04:26:24.600 --> 04:26:30.600
Gumiushi taken down to 3.08 feet there from the Golden Eclipse. Berserker still trying to get away, breaks the tether.

04:26:30.600 --> 04:26:34.600
There's your ace in the hole. Berserker just takes the damage, fine for now.

04:26:34.600 --> 04:26:38.600
Second coming in, looks to get the kill. Solar snare to lock him up, flash of the wall.

04:26:38.600 --> 04:26:40.600
Berserker invades the counterattack.

04:26:40.600 --> 04:26:48.120
Huge plays across the map and they grabbed the Herald off the back of that and the man from down under Isles is

04:26:48.940 --> 04:26:55.100
burying HLE in this game 5-2-2. This is an unreal performance

04:26:56.100 --> 04:27:02.260
especially after that previous series his E flash there was picture-perfect

04:27:02.420 --> 04:27:07.580
At the last moment that he could have actually gotten the redirection. He finds it beautifully

04:27:07.580 --> 04:27:13.580
Yeah, he's hanging those pictures up in Zayas's head like he has made himself very comfortable in there because he has just been existing

04:27:14.180 --> 04:27:21.380
Continuously in this topside trying to make sure you can find these plays you can see Zekka here on this doesn't know that Oz is there

04:27:21.380 --> 04:27:24.500
And it's just perfect exactly he lands the bones here

04:27:25.060 --> 04:27:28.100
From the brush last time you pointed out he had been spotted look at this

04:27:28.100 --> 04:27:36.940
He goes to the side E flash redirect tippers ignite alt and the reset is so critical because it means they have the damage to burst through this

04:27:36.940 --> 04:27:43.280
We can see the nefuri on the side was being pushed back by inspired. He matched the play he played on vision

04:27:43.280 --> 04:27:49.540
Can't he face-checked him got pushed back easily and they get another kill and remember every pike alt

04:27:49.660 --> 04:27:52.540
That is additional gold. That is not one kill

04:27:52.540 --> 04:27:59.120
That is double gold that you are getting with that coin and you can see it respectfully in both the solo laners

04:27:59.120 --> 04:28:03.860
1.4k gold 1.7k for a saint on this Annie

04:28:03.860 --> 04:28:07.860
He is going to blow someone up in these fights.

04:28:07.860 --> 04:28:11.860
And it's starting to feel like the pressure is really on HLE.

04:28:11.860 --> 04:28:14.860
This is a team that was expected to have an easy win.

04:28:14.860 --> 04:28:18.860
This is a team that was expected to be in the finals against BLG

04:28:18.860 --> 04:28:20.860
to be going back for that rematch.

04:28:20.860 --> 04:28:24.860
This is a team that is playing at home with the expectations

04:28:24.860 --> 04:28:27.860
of their region on their shoulders.

04:28:27.860 --> 04:28:32.860
Both of these teams, their only series loss in this tournament so far

04:28:32.860 --> 04:28:34.580
is to the team waiting in finals.

04:28:34.580 --> 04:28:37.540
They've both only lost to BLG.

04:28:37.540 --> 04:28:39.900
And man, what a performance from Lyon

04:28:39.900 --> 04:28:41.180
here in the game number four.

04:28:41.180 --> 04:28:42.420
As Inspired's in the enemy jungle,

04:28:42.420 --> 04:28:43.980
wants to jump in after Kanavi.

04:28:43.980 --> 04:28:45.340
Dives away there with a call of the pack.

04:28:45.340 --> 04:28:46.660
Lyon, steal away the red buff.

04:28:46.660 --> 04:28:48.060
Side step in the vision of the Empire.

04:28:48.060 --> 04:28:49.380
Delight, here with a tether.

04:28:49.380 --> 04:28:50.860
As Doku wants to try to turn it around.

04:28:50.860 --> 04:28:51.980
Kanavi wants to get away.

04:28:51.980 --> 04:28:53.100
Doku's very low.

04:28:53.100 --> 04:28:55.060
Say yes with a massive demonic ascension.

04:28:55.060 --> 04:28:57.700
Lyon is forced back, but a nice never move.

04:28:57.700 --> 04:28:59.060
Sane has the flash out.

04:28:59.060 --> 04:29:00.460
Lyon in serious danger.

04:29:00.460 --> 04:29:01.780
Seconds on the flag.

04:29:01.780 --> 04:29:03.780
And it's a shut down over the days.

04:29:03.780 --> 04:29:05.280
Canavigate another.

04:29:05.280 --> 04:29:08.280
And HLE just killed three.

04:29:08.280 --> 04:29:10.780
Line tried to push the advantage.

04:29:10.780 --> 04:29:14.280
And HLE tripped them up as they go for it.

04:29:14.280 --> 04:29:16.780
An over extension in the topside

04:29:16.780 --> 04:29:20.780
leads to a three for nothing for HLE.

04:29:20.780 --> 04:29:22.280
And Zayas is coming up huge here.

04:29:22.280 --> 04:29:25.280
Lyon trying to push in, trying to pressure.

04:29:25.280 --> 04:29:26.780
They sidestep that vision of Empires.

04:29:26.780 --> 04:29:27.780
They are able to get out,

04:29:27.780 --> 04:29:30.280
but watch as they go back in here.

04:29:30.280 --> 04:29:34.280
The ult gets popped, Kenobi flashes back, and then the critical moment here,

04:29:34.280 --> 04:29:36.780
Sane arrives, dies without using anything.

04:29:36.780 --> 04:29:42.780
He onto the trap, no tippers, no W, no Q, literally no spell pressed there.

04:29:42.780 --> 04:29:45.780
If he had dropped the tippers even getting trapped up,

04:29:45.780 --> 04:29:49.780
I feel like there's enough damage coming out that they have a shot in the fight.

04:29:49.780 --> 04:29:54.780
But Sane arrives, they not use a single button and they get punished massively.

04:29:54.780 --> 04:29:58.780
Because all of that burst was used just before Sane arrived.

04:29:58.780 --> 04:30:06.360
They tried to kill Kenavi, they tried to kill everyone else, but that meant there was nothing left when Xeus popped out of demonic ascension.

04:30:06.360 --> 04:30:12.640
He was a raid boss in the front line, and it holds the line for HLE here.

04:30:12.640 --> 04:30:21.380
Next dragon about to spawn, HLE already owned the first two, and the lead that Lyon spent 20 minutes building has now evaporated.

04:30:21.380 --> 04:30:26.120
The game is at an even state, and it comes down to execution.

04:30:26.120 --> 04:30:34.120
Canavi jumps back up to the wall with eviscerate as Lyon step forward to clear out some of the vision to try to prevent HLE from securing sole point.

04:30:34.120 --> 04:30:42.120
Lyon, in this position though is very hard to scoot out. Good vision control, multiple angles of attack.

04:30:42.120 --> 04:30:47.120
If you don't know where Oz is, that setup could be brutal, so HLE...

04:30:47.120 --> 04:30:52.120
Looks like maybe...oh hang on, they're going to try and run to the Xercher, but doklah's going top lane.

04:30:52.120 --> 04:30:55.120
Yeah, they're wondering if they're not actually going to be able to fight.

04:30:55.120 --> 04:30:58.520
They still could, does have his TP, so he could join if they want to go for it,

04:30:58.520 --> 04:31:02.020
but they've seeded control and now there's a trap line and there's no rebuttal on Berserker.

04:31:02.020 --> 04:31:02.820
This could be tough.

04:31:02.820 --> 04:31:07.620
Yep, walking into a Caitlyn team that has first move on an objective is incredibly difficult,

04:31:07.620 --> 04:31:09.120
so Lyon's going to say no.

04:31:09.120 --> 04:31:13.420
Instead, they summon up the Rift Herald here in mid, they get the charge into the turret,

04:31:13.420 --> 04:31:15.320
but they won't fully kill the structure.

04:31:15.320 --> 04:31:21.520
HLE, sole point now for a Mountain Soul in this game that you already said it earlier, Azale,

04:31:21.520 --> 04:31:23.520
would be a massive power spike.

04:31:23.520 --> 04:31:26.520
I mean, we talked, Emily talked about it on the desk yesterday.

04:31:26.520 --> 04:31:31.320
Lines seeding control of objectives to get more gold, to get into a better position.

04:31:31.320 --> 04:31:33.220
But this is risky.

04:31:33.220 --> 04:31:36.520
Inspire said they like to play risky against these teams,

04:31:36.520 --> 04:31:39.520
but how far are you willing to push the envelope?

04:31:39.520 --> 04:31:42.420
Because that mountain soul could change everything here.

04:31:42.420 --> 04:31:47.120
Lyon has showed us they are willing to push it all the way to the edge.

04:31:47.120 --> 04:31:52.120
They are willing to go all in and bet the game on one fight here.

04:31:52.120 --> 04:31:55.020
And they have the faith that they can get it done.

04:31:55.020 --> 04:31:59.020
That top lane fight by the Red Buff cost them massively.

04:31:59.020 --> 04:32:01.820
They were going to be in such a good spot for this search dragon.

04:32:01.820 --> 04:32:03.120
But they didn't like their odds.

04:32:03.120 --> 04:32:05.420
Missing Kreeka, kid of critical flashes there.

04:32:05.420 --> 04:32:08.420
And I feel like that is, is the biggest reason that they decided to back off.

04:32:08.420 --> 04:32:09.420
They're going up against the man.

04:32:09.420 --> 04:32:10.920
He used to be known as the King of Thieves though.

04:32:10.920 --> 04:32:15.820
Kenavi was incredible when it came towards this nice back when he was in the LPL.

04:32:15.820 --> 04:32:19.260
And now, 6-1 and 2 on this Nefiri.

04:32:19.260 --> 04:32:21.980
He called for a carry in this game.

04:32:21.980 --> 04:32:23.660
And he's done it before in the past.

04:32:23.660 --> 04:32:26.740
When he was down game 5 against T1,

04:32:26.740 --> 04:32:28.180
he wanted the Belved.

04:32:28.180 --> 04:32:29.460
He wanted to be the carry.

04:32:29.460 --> 04:32:31.700
This time around, elimination once more

04:32:31.700 --> 04:32:33.140
on the line at internationals.

04:32:33.140 --> 04:32:36.780
Canavi needs to be the carry for HLE.

04:32:36.780 --> 04:32:39.060
OK, once again, the Bonescure looking for a target.

04:32:39.060 --> 04:32:40.820
Not going to find anything valuable.

04:32:40.820 --> 04:32:43.020
All the little Nefiri dogs get blasted,

04:32:43.020 --> 04:32:47.620
But the big dog still doing just fine lion with a one and a half thousand Goldie

04:32:47.620 --> 04:32:52.360
But HLE with free Drake's worth of bonus stats that doesn't mean anything and critically

04:32:52.780 --> 04:32:58.020
2000 gold here the lead for Kenobi. He's very very soon gonna have that death dance

04:32:58.020 --> 04:33:00.680
You can see he's building towards and in your coin base gold grind

04:33:00.860 --> 04:33:05.340
Isles has at least been doing a good job on the lion side getting ahead and making plays

04:33:05.460 --> 04:33:12.060
Yes, they're gonna go though down here in the bottom side say is is your target sink inspired and Isles working together to take down the swing

04:33:12.060 --> 04:33:13.200
Meanwhile, up here in the top lane,

04:33:13.200 --> 04:33:16.480
Doku's gonna get dove into 1v2, and he dies as well.

04:33:16.480 --> 04:33:20.840
Both top laners, the targets for the enemy hit squad.

04:33:20.840 --> 04:33:22.840
Nice pick on either side.

04:33:22.840 --> 04:33:25.120
You can feel how tense it is in that line.

04:33:25.120 --> 04:33:27.520
Wanna move in towards this mid lane.

04:33:27.520 --> 04:33:29.320
Yeah, off the wave getting cleared away,

04:33:29.320 --> 04:33:31.880
but not fast enough, inspired.

04:33:31.880 --> 04:33:33.280
Stepping forward to tank the turret.

04:33:33.280 --> 04:33:35.120
One more auto attack, gets it done,

04:33:35.120 --> 04:33:37.160
and Lyon are up to a 2,500 gold.

04:33:37.160 --> 04:33:39.960
So you're still gonna get the advantage here for Lyon.

04:33:39.960 --> 04:33:42.500
They get the mid-terror, they will get the bot-terror,

04:33:42.500 --> 04:33:44.840
and at least a little bit of gold back in their favor.

04:33:44.840 --> 04:33:48.440
And you can see how much burst this Annie, Pantheon, combo has.

04:33:48.440 --> 04:33:51.240
Like, Swain incredibly strong at the moment,

04:33:51.240 --> 04:33:53.140
but they're still able to get through that health bar.

04:33:53.140 --> 04:33:55.100
They absolutely are, and Swain, though,

04:33:55.100 --> 04:33:58.540
is going to be building towards Azonia's third, I would bet, right?

04:33:58.540 --> 04:34:01.280
And that is where things get really, really difficult, right?

04:34:01.280 --> 04:34:04.620
Where you have to then be able to kill him before he pops that.

04:34:04.620 --> 04:34:06.620
Azonia's he's going to keep healing during it,

04:34:06.620 --> 04:34:09.260
and you have to decide, do we have the damage to do it

04:34:09.260 --> 04:34:13.020
or do you have to ignore the swing? If you ignore the swing and he does too much damage to you,

04:34:13.020 --> 04:34:18.620
that can go really bad. So it's a hard decision to make, but Lyon have just been walking this line.

04:34:18.620 --> 04:34:23.740
It feels like all game long. Berserker has not really been involved in anything in this one,

04:34:24.300 --> 04:34:27.020
but is pretty strong here alongside Guma.

04:34:27.020 --> 04:34:30.460
But I do think you have the range to play with online, right? Like look for the poke with the

04:34:30.460 --> 04:34:35.500
Jace with the mail. Just don't really give that opportunity for HLE to find the all-in. And if

04:34:35.500 --> 04:34:39.900
And if they do, it's interesting. You can try and backpedal away from Xeas.

04:34:39.900 --> 04:34:42.700
I think that's where they can try and play out these fights.

04:34:42.700 --> 04:34:45.600
Yeah, I would completely agree, and it's going to come down to execution.

04:34:45.600 --> 04:34:49.300
I feel like at this dragon, you must be there first.

04:34:49.300 --> 04:34:53.100
It is very difficult to enter in to a Jason and Melveter setup,

04:34:53.100 --> 04:34:56.500
but likewise, it is very difficult to walk in when you don't see Aurora,

04:34:56.500 --> 04:34:59.200
and there's a trap line. You don't know where they are.

04:34:59.200 --> 04:35:00.200
You could lose the game.

04:35:00.200 --> 04:35:02.600
And let me bring you gentlemen back to game number one.

04:35:02.600 --> 04:35:06.560
remember it was a Guma-Yushi diff and here in this game other than Kenavi

04:35:06.560 --> 04:35:11.180
he's the other player on HLE who has an individual lead. He's got his hex

04:35:11.180 --> 04:35:15.200
optics, he's got his infinity edge and now his junglers are going to make a play on

04:35:15.200 --> 04:35:19.040
Dopa Kenavi. It's stunned up, he's taken very low and they end up killing him here with Isle's execution.

04:35:19.040 --> 04:35:22.720
Say it's in the middle of everybody here with demonic ascension. He's staying alive, he's taking so much.

04:35:22.720 --> 04:35:26.020
Say he's going to be killed one for one straight up or all so far. Guma-Yushi going

04:35:26.020 --> 04:35:29.520
after Dopa and he's about to kill. Inspired, takes the life with them.

04:35:29.520 --> 04:35:31.520
but it's the Devil Killback from the ZECA.

04:35:31.520 --> 04:35:35.020
HLE are killing everybody!

04:35:35.020 --> 04:35:38.520
The Zercher tries to flash away, but he falls!

04:35:38.520 --> 04:35:43.020
HLE with a critical team fight.

04:35:43.020 --> 04:35:45.020
30 seconds before the soul.

04:35:45.020 --> 04:35:50.520
Canavi over extends, but Zayas has his back.

04:35:50.520 --> 04:35:53.520
HLE find the fight that they want.

04:35:53.520 --> 04:35:55.520
Dokla stepping forward.

04:35:55.520 --> 04:36:01.940
Canavi jumps onto him and it's the immediate invulnerability into the stun that baseline in

04:36:01.940 --> 04:36:08.920
but Zaze has never moved onto Sainz, onto Isles, pulls them into the death grip and it's that

04:36:08.920 --> 04:36:13.440
just machine turning through that lets HLE bring it back.

04:36:13.440 --> 04:36:17.840
Exactly, I mean they get that first kill on Canavi but you've spent all your cooldowns

04:36:17.840 --> 04:36:20.080
and now they're back here on the Dragon.

04:36:20.080 --> 04:36:22.680
Inspired does have his ult, will he try to send it?

04:36:22.680 --> 04:36:24.760
But Zercher is not even alive right now.

04:36:24.760 --> 04:36:26.760
HLE putting the work in on the Drake.

04:36:26.760 --> 04:36:28.760
They're gonna burn it down before Lyon's able to do anything.

04:36:28.760 --> 04:36:30.480
I'll just kill the very start.

04:36:30.480 --> 04:36:33.080
Inspired all 10, but it's into his own demise.

04:36:33.080 --> 04:36:35.760
Charlie, the Mountain Soul is claimed.

04:36:35.760 --> 04:36:40.240
Lyon is routed, and HLE are on the hunt.

04:36:40.240 --> 04:36:41.920
Inspired will die next.

04:36:41.920 --> 04:36:43.840
He wants to take Zeca with him,

04:36:43.840 --> 04:36:47.680
but he loses his Guardian Angel for free instead.

04:36:47.680 --> 04:36:52.200
HLE, at the time when they had to clutch up most,

04:36:52.200 --> 04:36:54.660
They do just that.

04:36:54.660 --> 04:36:56.660
They earn the Dragon Soul.

04:36:56.660 --> 04:37:00.820
They kill off three, and HLE are feeling good.

04:37:00.820 --> 04:37:03.700
It was supposed to be an uphill battle,

04:37:03.700 --> 04:37:07.380
but HLE says there's still more magic to climb.

04:37:07.380 --> 04:37:10.660
They will not give up in game four.

04:37:10.660 --> 04:37:13.860
Lyon will have to push them the distance.

04:37:13.860 --> 04:37:16.060
HLE, get the Soul.

04:37:16.060 --> 04:37:17.260
They're going to get the Bear,

04:37:17.260 --> 04:37:21.380
and they have taken full control of this game.

04:37:21.380 --> 04:37:26.500
Lyon decided it was worth sending it to try to deny the soul there.

04:37:26.500 --> 04:37:29.340
They weren't able to do it.

04:37:29.340 --> 04:37:33.380
Mal Bezerker under pressure from Zeke here in this bottom lane.

04:37:33.380 --> 04:37:35.020
Yeah, solar snare hits.

04:37:35.020 --> 04:37:37.580
Radian Bally isn't gonna do it.

04:37:37.580 --> 04:37:40.940
Zeke for the 1v1.

04:37:40.940 --> 04:37:46.420
Zeke continuing to find plays, continuing to rub salt

04:37:46.420 --> 04:37:49.860
in the wound of Lyon as the soul went over.

04:37:49.860 --> 04:37:52.700
And the setup here was all there for HLE.

04:37:52.700 --> 04:37:54.660
He had the extra members.

04:37:54.660 --> 04:37:56.300
Isle's trying to look for an angle

04:37:56.300 --> 04:37:58.260
in this MasterCard crisis moment of the game.

04:37:58.260 --> 04:37:59.100
Can't find anything.

04:37:59.100 --> 04:37:59.980
He dies in a hurry.

04:37:59.980 --> 04:38:00.900
Dokla knows.

04:38:00.900 --> 04:38:03.420
He's got to try to send it on to Kuma, who had no flash.

04:38:03.420 --> 04:38:06.100
He felt that was maybe the only way in.

04:38:06.100 --> 04:38:07.980
But he doesn't have anywhere close to the damage.

04:38:07.980 --> 04:38:09.060
Inspire can do nothing.

04:38:09.060 --> 04:38:11.940
St. Emperor Zerker can do nothing.

04:38:11.940 --> 04:38:14.580
And it feels like this one is definitely

04:38:14.580 --> 04:38:17.860
slipping away from Lyon.

04:38:17.860 --> 04:38:19.860
Zayas took the Swain.

04:38:19.860 --> 04:38:22.700
Kanagi continued to play towards the bird in the top

04:38:22.700 --> 04:38:27.940
and there's very little that Lyon can now do to get Zayas down.

04:38:27.940 --> 04:38:32.500
And it all goes back to that fight at the HLE Red Buff.

04:38:32.500 --> 04:38:35.260
Up until then, Lyon was running the show.

04:38:35.260 --> 04:38:40.620
But against a team like HLE, against the LCK's number one seed,

04:38:40.620 --> 04:38:44.780
if you make one misstep, they are going to punish.

04:38:44.780 --> 04:38:49.280
Dockla trying to push into the HLE base right now, but it's HLE with the Baron

04:38:49.280 --> 04:38:55.640
It's HLE with that extra pushing power for the next minute and a half that are just bulldozing through the base of Lyon

04:38:55.680 --> 04:39:00.020
They've already made their way on to the next is turrets. Gumi Ushi setting down some traps

04:39:00.540 --> 04:39:06.120
Lyon looking for the moment to possibly defend Zayas taking the recall to go back and defend against Dockla's push

04:39:06.600 --> 04:39:09.680
HLE are not done yet. They've already claimed the bottom inhibitor now

04:39:09.680 --> 04:39:13.720
They're looking to go even further saying he's the ace in the hole as well as the between worlds

04:39:13.720 --> 04:39:16.680
HLE have already taken next to start at number one now

04:39:16.680 --> 04:39:18.620
They're trying to get themselves out Ios's world

04:39:18.620 --> 04:39:23.880
But he is not that inspired for us to die the circle here in the front line. He dies down HLE

04:39:24.280 --> 04:39:32.840
Will not go quietly into the night. They will find their win. They will take us to silver

04:39:33.360 --> 04:39:35.360
straight

04:39:35.360 --> 04:39:37.360
Inspired versus the LCK

04:39:38.280 --> 04:39:41.400
Could it end up in game five any other way?

04:39:41.400 --> 04:39:48.400
an insane performance from HLE as the desk is gonna break it down.

04:39:48.400 --> 04:39:55.400
HLE say not today if you want to get past us you're gonna have to do it in game five

04:39:55.400 --> 04:39:57.400
and Zeca is waiting.

04:39:57.400 --> 04:40:02.400
And Zeus was also incredibly clutching that game on the Swain.

04:40:02.400 --> 04:40:04.400
The Swain pick became so hard to deal with.

04:40:04.400 --> 04:40:07.400
The pressure is on both sides. We were saying this before the game.

04:40:07.400 --> 04:40:10.400
Lion can play free when no one expects them to win

04:40:10.400 --> 04:40:17.700
But when you're to one up you try and exercise all your demons right the NA pike the NHAs the Annie with inspired

04:40:17.700 --> 04:40:26.080
I actually love the slots they picked those champions in but HLE was just better in this game for they were executing for so long though Emily

04:40:26.080 --> 04:40:31.860
Yeah, I mean the big thing to me is again Kanavi got so many kills off of this top side

04:40:31.860 --> 04:40:38.840
Yeah, and then that essentially even though I think HLE were also still very shaky in some of these team fight setups

04:40:38.840 --> 04:40:45.320
There was a run-up play where lion actually got two tier one turrets to one against them

04:40:45.320 --> 04:40:46.480
So they're playing the map better

04:40:46.480 --> 04:40:54.040
But this acted as a huge bridge for the swing to just take over and it was a really nice

04:40:54.520 --> 04:40:56.960
Swain pick like I don't think I agree with that

04:40:56.960 --> 04:41:01.320
It was a good draft from from lion, but this swing absolutely took over

04:41:01.320 --> 04:41:06.680
But I liked lion's game plan of how to deal with it Ios constantly up there on the bike

04:41:06.680 --> 04:41:12.840
They attacked it so heavily in the early game, constantly going there to try and keep it down.

04:41:12.840 --> 04:41:16.680
But they could not. It's not just this one either. That was a double never move.

04:41:16.680 --> 04:41:19.960
They also had the other one on the bottom side jungle.

04:41:19.960 --> 04:41:27.640
And even leading up to this, the W as well, the eyeball just delaying their exit caused this collapse.

04:41:27.640 --> 04:41:33.400
It's so hard to deal with because everybody else, solo health, and he becomes this immovable object

04:41:33.400 --> 04:41:36.400
that was able to run them down hitting multi-person snares.

04:41:36.400 --> 04:41:40.900
Yeah, and you saw shades of what make HLE so formidable here, right?

04:41:40.900 --> 04:41:44.400
I still don't think they're playing anywhere near at their best.

04:41:44.400 --> 04:41:47.900
But again, Kanavi being able to get so many kills early,

04:41:47.900 --> 04:41:50.900
really spreading that pressure, and then, you know,

04:41:50.900 --> 04:41:53.900
the Swain just absolutely taking over everything.

04:41:53.900 --> 04:41:57.400
The Swain, but it was the combination of everything a little bit, right?

04:41:57.400 --> 04:41:59.000
Kanavi was super fed.

04:41:59.000 --> 04:42:06.120
Zayus was getting there, was able to do what he needed to do. Zeka in that jungle fight earlier, the Caitlyn.

04:42:06.120 --> 04:42:07.800
Like, it was a lot, Jon.

04:42:07.800 --> 04:42:13.000
It was a lot, and I think HLE was able to pull themselves through the slot they needed to pull themselves through.

04:42:13.000 --> 04:42:19.160
This would clearly be, if they're weak mentally, a way to just fall away and get eliminated and lose the world slot.

04:42:19.160 --> 04:42:25.320
But I- Guma, smiling and giving that little fist bump after the big fight, you know that that's really when they locked in.

04:42:25.320 --> 04:42:28.200
Absolutely so. We're gonna head over to a break, but when we come back,

04:42:28.200 --> 04:42:31.800
We're gonna set it all up all of the stories going into game five

04:42:32.280 --> 04:42:36.920
The fact that inspired is on the recipe of something he has chased for so so long

04:42:36.920 --> 04:42:38.920
We'll be right back after silver scrapes

04:45:28.200 --> 04:45:58.080
Another Silver Scrapes here in the Dejan Convention Center as we head into the most

04:45:58.080 --> 04:46:05.460
important game of Lions lives and I want to set it up by calling back to to

04:46:05.460 --> 04:46:11.540
unfinished business for FlyQuest inspired and Gen.G. This is the player that we've

04:46:11.540 --> 04:46:16.740
been hyping up coming into today that's even in this series made the crucial

04:46:16.740 --> 04:46:21.500
decisions that has helped them win games and this is exactly what he's been

04:46:21.500 --> 04:46:25.180
waiting for. They went to game 5 against Gen.G in 2024 Worlds, they went to game 5

04:46:25.180 --> 04:46:28.020
against BLG in 2025, MSI.

04:46:28.020 --> 04:46:30.820
And they lost pretty badly in those Game 5s.

04:46:30.820 --> 04:46:33.540
I think one thing I'm worried about with Inspired

04:46:33.540 --> 04:46:35.980
is his energy expenditure throughout the series,

04:46:35.980 --> 04:46:37.940
because he's so locked in, and he

04:46:37.940 --> 04:46:39.620
has to do so much shot calling.

04:46:39.620 --> 04:46:41.820
But I also feel like they've learned lessons.

04:46:41.820 --> 04:46:43.460
You see those camps, man?

04:46:43.460 --> 04:46:44.140
This is different.

04:46:44.140 --> 04:46:45.780
He trusts this team more than I feel

04:46:45.780 --> 04:46:47.460
like he's trusted those past teams.

04:46:47.460 --> 04:46:49.940
So if he's going to do it, I'm more confident he can do it

04:46:49.940 --> 04:46:51.700
now than I was in those last two instances.

04:46:51.700 --> 04:46:53.340
Yeah, I feel like that every time we've

04:46:53.340 --> 04:46:54.980
gone to look at the camps, they look

04:46:54.980 --> 04:46:59.740
like they have the energy still, I think it just comes down to focus and execution, you

04:46:59.740 --> 04:47:04.700
know, they have had really good game plans. It comes down to best of five. And the last

04:47:04.700 --> 04:47:09.300
game of Fearless is where it all comes out. Inspired loves, yeah, playing Fearless. He

04:47:09.300 --> 04:47:14.180
loves the champion select game. So you really have to lie and wait, see what they cook,

04:47:14.180 --> 04:47:19.340
especially mid lane. But having the Ari and the Silas are primo picks for both of them.

04:47:19.340 --> 04:47:22.300
What are some kind of choices that have to be made here? Lay it out for me.

04:47:22.300 --> 04:47:24.020
Ari and the Silas are pretty well picked.

04:47:24.020 --> 04:47:25.020
Well, you have a tool for it.

04:47:25.020 --> 04:47:25.660
It's what I meant.

04:47:25.660 --> 04:47:26.160
Oh, yeah.

04:47:26.160 --> 04:47:27.860
I mean, if we pull up the pitch right now,

04:47:27.860 --> 04:47:30.380
I think the HLE would have in game five.

04:47:30.380 --> 04:47:34.300
Because we've seen so many fringe picks already, a lot is up.

04:47:34.300 --> 04:47:36.540
Like, I see Zeyou's NAR, Jax.

04:47:36.540 --> 04:47:41.300
I see the Ari, Casio, Taliyah, Laplonk, Silas.

04:47:41.300 --> 04:47:44.940
There's a slew of power picks still up in game five.

04:47:44.940 --> 04:47:47.420
Yeah, the Silas is one I'm going to have my eye on,

04:47:47.420 --> 04:47:51.260
mainly because we have two really big Silas players.

04:47:51.260 --> 04:47:57.600
Like I know obviously Zekka is known for that pick before he really expanded his champion pool and became a more well rounded player.

04:47:57.600 --> 04:48:04.780
But St. has absolutely destroyed people on the side list as well, so you know either of them are going to pick it in a really good angle.

04:48:04.780 --> 04:48:10.340
But there's honestly a lot like that's very normal that's been left up for this game 5.

04:48:10.940 --> 04:48:15.260
The Bard and the Shen for supports with roaming being so critical.

04:48:15.260 --> 04:48:18.600
Isles constantly in the top lane in the last game.

04:48:18.600 --> 04:48:26.420
It's all about can you leave your AD carries by themselves make the plays for those solo lanes and the solo lanes of lion we're competing

04:48:26.420 --> 04:48:32.340
They're doing more than the beatings absolutely so Emily talk to me a little bit about this Zeka game five

04:48:32.500 --> 04:48:39.020
Yeah, how afraid this line have to be so he was basically known as or it still is known as the game five devil

04:48:39.020 --> 04:48:44.080
basically for his propensity to win game fives in really critical

04:48:44.080 --> 04:48:50.080
situations, which is kind of at odds with what we've talked about with this HLE roster,

04:48:50.080 --> 04:48:56.280
where they have been a little bit mentally shaky after unexpectedly losing, so.

04:48:56.280 --> 04:48:59.760
You got some examples, maybe like a world final or something that he's been able to

04:48:59.760 --> 04:49:00.760
do it well in.

04:49:00.760 --> 04:49:01.760
Yeah, maybe.

04:49:01.760 --> 04:49:02.760
What's happened?

04:49:02.760 --> 04:49:05.760
Yeah, maybe that's the most famous one of 2022.

04:49:05.760 --> 04:49:08.040
I mean, but I think it's so pertinent, right?

04:49:08.040 --> 04:49:11.480
Because it is, in the story that we've been telling of Zeke, you did draw my life, right?

04:49:11.480 --> 04:49:16.160
high point that inflection point in his career never really able to get there

04:49:16.160 --> 04:49:20.360
again and now it's on his shoulders and HLE shoulders to get them a birth in the

04:49:20.360 --> 04:49:25.040
MSI final to possibly get them another trophy. Yeah and he had a solid game last

04:49:25.040 --> 04:49:28.920
time but we really haven't seen him pop off we really haven't seen outside the

04:49:28.920 --> 04:49:35.240
gigantic swain that kind of really big topside pop off this last game I think

04:49:35.240 --> 04:49:41.040
was the closest we got to it so if I'm HLE I'm looking at being like okay we did

04:49:41.040 --> 04:49:47.760
do this last game we can do it again even when the pressure is on even when all of Korea needs us

04:49:47.760 --> 04:49:56.480
to lock in to earn more world seeds for our region and that is very real did you hear this crowd

04:49:56.480 --> 04:50:04.480
when 8th only one of that comeback beat bite it was deafening in here the entire place is packed

04:50:04.480 --> 04:50:10.880
and they were all shouting ah maybe some of them remember a few days ago there are other lk lckc

04:50:11.040 --> 04:50:14.560
He ended up being knocked out. They're holding their breath Jack, but

04:50:15.160 --> 04:50:22.000
Spitty hit a story for Lyon. That that's that longing from Inspire to make good on his promise to get this win

04:50:22.000 --> 04:50:25.800
And his chance that he has now with this team. He already knocked out G2

04:50:25.840 --> 04:50:30.680
Which was personal but a great career accomplishment would be to win this best of five

04:50:31.160 --> 04:50:37.400
Against the best current team in the LCK. He's done it with so many different teammates

04:50:37.400 --> 04:50:43.360
But he trusts these teammates more than he has in the past st. Berzerker have been popping off

04:50:43.680 --> 04:50:48.880
Dokla has been the clutch's player hell even in he ousers pike. He had some

04:50:51.080 --> 04:50:53.080
So if

04:50:53.080 --> 04:50:56.640
Inspired can do this for himself and for North America

04:50:56.640 --> 04:51:01.640
It would be to me the greatest accomplishment internationally in the history of the LCS

04:51:01.640 --> 04:51:05.240
And I know team liquid made it to the finals that was the best of five went against IG

04:51:05.240 --> 04:51:10.240
But the gauntlet they would run through G2 who was the number two ranked team in the world by the power rankings

04:51:10.640 --> 04:51:15.180
Into lck one seed and who knows what would happen after I believe it would be number one

04:51:15.180 --> 04:51:19.320
It would be absolutely monumental. It would be in the making since

04:51:19.840 --> 04:51:26.440
2018 for the LCS to get that win over the LCK, but this is what you have to go through

04:51:26.440 --> 04:51:32.200
This is the gauntlet you have to run if you want to get that win HLE is standing tall

04:51:32.200 --> 04:51:37.640
bringing them into game five. All of the fans behind them, but Lyon, they can do it.

04:51:37.640 --> 04:51:43.140
They can do the thing that LCS has been waiting for for so, so long. Captain, it's

04:51:43.140 --> 04:51:49.000
so close, you can almost taste it. Taste it. You can see it, you can hear it, you can

04:51:49.000 --> 04:51:54.280
feel it. Here in the arena, you hear the music, you see the lights, you feel the

04:51:54.280 --> 04:52:01.600
energy from all the fans as after hours of back and forth between these teams, we

04:52:01.600 --> 04:52:09.960
We now find ourself at the only place that it can truly be decided, Game 5, to determine

04:52:09.960 --> 04:52:16.760
who gets the honor to play for the championship tomorrow and who will tragically fall short.

04:52:16.760 --> 04:52:19.960
One game to decide it all.

04:52:19.960 --> 04:52:22.520
Elimination match here, two number one seeds.

04:52:22.520 --> 04:52:27.800
Lyon trying to do what the LCS has not been able to do in so, so long.

04:52:27.800 --> 04:52:31.120
They will bet their fates on second pick here.

04:52:31.120 --> 04:52:42.120
Blue side with an over 70% win rate so far at the tournament and they have selected second pick, which means HLE will get first pick and they have chosen blue.

04:52:42.120 --> 04:52:51.120
And now this is where you find out exactly what you're made of. Is it nervousness or is it excitement? Is it vice or is it flight?

04:52:51.120 --> 04:53:01.120
The LCS stands poised to make history, but they need to do it against the number one seed from the LCK against that record you just set as ill.

04:53:02.120 --> 04:53:11.120
Okay, we've got Vayne, Varys, and Bard banned out by HLE. We've got Casio, Xeraphine, and Nard banned out by Lyon, and it's a first pick Kalista for Gumiuchi.

04:53:11.120 --> 04:53:20.120
And the answers are not that easy here, because a lot of these kind of strong laners, survivable laners, you think, okay, you sit back, you farm it out, but a lot of that stuff is all gone, right?

04:53:20.120 --> 04:53:24.280
There are hypercaries that Berserker is known for, that he's made his career on.

04:53:24.280 --> 04:53:26.320
You can go you know, you can go picks like this.

04:53:26.720 --> 04:53:30.920
But are you willing to risk going into the Gumi-Yushi Callista?

04:53:30.960 --> 04:53:32.000
Oh, they take the Renata.

04:53:32.000 --> 04:53:33.000
And they're going to take the Renata.

04:53:33.000 --> 04:53:34.840
I think that means they are going to go hypercarry.

04:53:34.840 --> 04:53:37.880
I think that they are going to go for that more defensive side.

04:53:37.880 --> 04:53:38.840
They take this away.

04:53:38.840 --> 04:53:41.960
But of course, you can still go some of the aggressive pairings here.

04:53:42.360 --> 04:53:45.120
Nautilus is still up and available and on events.

04:53:45.120 --> 04:53:47.320
You can go Callista Nautilus, you can go Callista Blitz.

04:53:47.320 --> 04:53:49.800
You can go a lot of these aggressive pairings.

04:53:50.120 --> 04:53:53.060
And we will see, it's going to be a foul.

04:53:53.060 --> 04:53:57.560
Pender Zerker withstands the onslaught in that bot lane.

04:53:57.560 --> 04:53:59.760
I'm curious what he'll decide to play,

04:53:59.760 --> 04:54:03.900
but we are going to see the Shen locked in before an AD carry here.

04:54:03.900 --> 04:54:07.060
It's a two-way flex. It can be jungle, it can be top,

04:54:07.060 --> 04:54:09.800
so we'll find out where they want to send it.

04:54:09.800 --> 04:54:13.720
Xin Zhao is up and available, and so he didn't decide to go for that.

04:54:13.720 --> 04:54:16.560
I think it's also just trying to give that protection to the bottom lane, right?

04:54:16.560 --> 04:54:19.020
Once again, to that level six, if that all in goes through,

04:54:19.020 --> 04:54:21.420
But this was the mid laner that I have my eyes on.

04:54:21.420 --> 04:54:23.720
The R are you going to be over here for Azzeca?

04:54:23.720 --> 04:54:27.120
One of the last remaining top tier picks it feels like in that mid lane.

04:54:27.120 --> 04:54:29.620
And something that opens up a lot of playmaking for Canavi.

04:54:29.620 --> 04:54:33.120
I really wonder would they go towards something like the Sivir here.

04:54:33.120 --> 04:54:35.520
You know, they did bring out in that BLG series.

04:54:35.520 --> 04:54:38.520
Sivir wasn't a good spot and Sivir is a champion

04:54:38.520 --> 04:54:42.420
that can sometimes withstand the difficult matchups simply through wave clear, right?

04:54:42.420 --> 04:54:45.920
If you're not actually dying early, you get to a point where you're just one shot in the waves.

04:54:45.920 --> 04:54:48.260
It can be difficult and it is the play that I called out.

04:54:48.260 --> 04:54:51.080
They do not decide to go for the Nautilus.

04:54:51.080 --> 04:54:54.180
Blitz, Alt though, is crazy to steal a Sylas.

04:54:54.180 --> 04:54:55.820
There's a fat AP ratio.

04:54:55.820 --> 04:54:56.820
It's an AWE silencer.

04:54:56.820 --> 04:54:58.340
It's great against a lot of these champs.

04:54:58.340 --> 04:55:01.180
And the Arial also powerful to steal.

04:55:01.180 --> 04:55:03.460
Plus you've got Renata to keep you alive.

04:55:03.460 --> 04:55:05.140
Shen to keep you alive.

04:55:05.140 --> 04:55:08.540
There is so much here that Sane could work off of.

04:55:08.540 --> 04:55:11.420
And after his performance yesterday,

04:55:11.420 --> 04:55:13.340
this could be his moment to shine again.

04:55:13.340 --> 04:55:14.860
I mean, I love the Sylas here,

04:55:14.860 --> 04:55:18.660
But still you are so nervous if you are the lion bot lane

04:55:18.660 --> 04:55:22.860
Yeah, great if we get to 5v5's on uneven keel and you have berserk on hybrid carry

04:55:22.860 --> 04:55:28.940
You're feeling good, but this is blitz callista and we are a game 5 peerless with 280 carry bands

04:55:28.940 --> 04:55:34.620
8 already out of the pool from from earlier including the AP carries and I think it's gonna be tough

04:55:34.620 --> 04:55:38.380
You know they can look towards things like for sauna and try to buffer the hooks

04:55:38.380 --> 04:55:41.340
I think that could be an angle you can look towards silver as I said

04:55:41.340 --> 04:55:45.120
but I'm expecting that'll be banned because Spell Shield very powerful against Blitz.

04:55:45.120 --> 04:55:48.540
Yeah, Zaheel is the other thing in my head for the level 6.

04:55:48.540 --> 04:55:51.400
He could try and get away with the Feather Storm, but yeah, you're lacking.

04:55:51.400 --> 04:55:53.340
Wearing so much of a pre-6, right?

04:55:53.340 --> 04:55:58.000
And so I wouldn't expect Zaheel, but yeah, it's the options are not easy, right?

04:55:58.000 --> 04:56:03.320
As I said, this guy was famous for his Zeri, for his, you know, picks along those lines.

04:56:03.320 --> 04:56:06.000
That is how he became known as all about the Hypercarrier.

04:56:06.000 --> 04:56:09.600
The Sivir I expect to be banned is going to be banned, and they're going to ban out the Trumbull.

04:56:09.600 --> 04:56:12.140
and probably the Zin here as well I would expect.

04:56:12.140 --> 04:56:14.340
Maybe Korky is another way to go for it with the Valkyrie.

04:56:14.340 --> 04:56:17.020
It's kind of fun and out of meta at this page though.

04:56:17.020 --> 04:56:17.780
It's tough.

04:56:17.780 --> 04:56:20.580
I mean, I kind of am feeling the Trist.

04:56:20.580 --> 04:56:22.580
A Trist early game is very weak.

04:56:22.580 --> 04:56:25.700
You would have to be basically saying, it's survival.

04:56:25.700 --> 04:56:27.420
We just try to hang on.

04:56:27.420 --> 04:56:29.500
And we get to a point where we can survive.

04:56:29.500 --> 04:56:31.300
Because the nice thing about the Trist

04:56:31.300 --> 04:56:33.300
is you can buffer the hook, right?

04:56:33.300 --> 04:56:35.300
And that is really, really key.

04:56:35.300 --> 04:56:36.460
There are not a place behind you.

04:56:36.460 --> 04:56:37.540
You try to buffer the hook.

04:56:37.540 --> 04:56:38.860
Wukong going to be banned out instead.

04:56:38.860 --> 04:56:43.180
So you're expecting Kanavi could go to Xen, but Kanavi's been so stellar on these playmakers.

04:56:43.180 --> 04:56:45.460
When you think about the Vi, what do you think about Winifiry?

04:56:45.460 --> 04:56:48.420
One thing about Xen though, Silas loves his ultimate.

04:56:48.420 --> 04:56:50.620
That's another thing that you have to be careful of.

04:56:50.620 --> 04:56:55.660
Those defensive ultimates, Alistar obviously not available because that's already been eliminated through Fearless.

04:56:55.660 --> 04:56:59.900
But Xen's ulti allows Saints so much power in the teamfight.

04:56:59.900 --> 04:57:03.780
Olaf gonna be the final ban instead here from HLE.

04:57:03.780 --> 04:57:06.620
The thing is though, Kanavi's champion pool is absolutely insane.

04:57:06.620 --> 04:57:16.860
Like, I've seen this man play, Kha'zix, I cast him play, Shaco in the LPL, like, this man goes into the depths that you don't expect him to, so, there's gonna be so much that he's able to bring to the table.

04:57:18.540 --> 04:57:27.300
I feel like if you're going, if you're going this, I don't believe it. I believe this more, but I am really, really worried about how the early levels are gonna go.

04:57:27.780 --> 04:57:34.420
You don't have the rocket jump, you don't have the same theme as Bell Shield if Silver wasn't been, you don't have a lot of those tools.

04:57:34.420 --> 04:57:42.420
I don't think so. My understanding is that the Silas ult stealing Shyamalan is crazy good, so I would see surprise if he went that way, but

04:57:42.420 --> 04:57:44.420
I'm not as familiar with the interaction.

04:57:44.420 --> 04:57:49.420
No, it's a tuna damage. Like you can one shot three people in the same fashion.

04:57:49.420 --> 04:57:50.420
And you get the fear as well.

04:57:50.420 --> 04:57:51.420
Yeah, exactly. Yeah.

04:57:52.420 --> 04:57:53.420
This would make more sense.

04:57:53.420 --> 04:57:56.420
Tanabi Nidalee in game five.

04:57:57.420 --> 04:58:02.420
The Renekton is still up. Renekton Nidalee. That's what it is. It's a game five Renekton Nidalee.

04:58:02.420 --> 04:58:08.900
They're gonna go for it because never neck then is still up and available wasn't banned and was not picked

04:58:08.900 --> 04:58:10.900
And that is the throwback

04:58:12.060 --> 04:58:14.060
Okay, I

04:58:14.420 --> 04:58:20.660
Would be out okay. Wow. No, it's not it's the eight rocks instead for Zayas in the final game

04:58:20.660 --> 04:58:24.060
I'm shocked. I think he thinks it's the shen top exactly

04:58:24.060 --> 04:58:27.800
I was gonna say is way better into Shen, but I think this is gonna be a shen jungle now

04:58:27.800 --> 04:58:30.100
I think they're going to give the counter pick to Dokla.

04:58:30.100 --> 04:58:34.300
The Shen jungles tosto against the midlier, your clear speed is just not that good.

04:58:34.300 --> 04:58:39.000
I think, yeah, you kind of, like, yes, you will have the matchup to try to play around,

04:58:39.000 --> 04:58:43.800
but I think the Nidalee can just take your jungles so quickly, especially if you go low on that first clear.

04:58:43.800 --> 04:58:47.300
Yeah, I mean, it's a good point, but you're balancing a lot of different things now, right?

04:58:47.300 --> 04:58:47.800
Yeah.

04:58:47.800 --> 04:58:51.800
So now you are betting your game five on what I believe to be a hard losing bot lane,

04:58:51.800 --> 04:58:56.100
a hard losing top lane, and an early, pretty hard losing mid lane.

04:58:56.100 --> 04:59:00.560
So you're kind of drafting three losing lanes here and saying if we can hang on

04:59:01.220 --> 04:59:04.140
We should wait because you're looking at books in Italy

04:59:04.140 --> 04:59:06.980
It was the champions that don't get that much guaranteed value

04:59:06.980 --> 04:59:12.980
There's not even great setup and Ari. Nidalee is a horrendous 2v2 combo. Yeah, so if they can hang on

04:59:13.300 --> 04:59:15.300
You could win this game in the 5v5

04:59:15.340 --> 04:59:18.860
But a lot of questions to be answered before you get there

04:59:18.860 --> 04:59:24.580
It is so hard to play Shannon to H rocks. It is so hard. I feel like to play this Zaya

04:59:24.580 --> 04:59:27.580
into this Callista Blitz.

04:59:28.580 --> 04:59:34.580
And up against Blitzcrank, a champion that warps the game around himself in a bit of a way, right?

04:59:34.580 --> 04:59:41.580
Blitz utterly useless if you can't hit pulls, but the threat of that pull is such a different type of threat compared to almost everything else in the game.

04:59:41.580 --> 04:59:47.580
Even hooks, like Pyke or like Nautilus, doesn't bring you near as far as what Blitzcrank can do.

04:59:47.580 --> 04:59:51.780
And if Lyon aren't respecting it, we know Delight is a playmaker.

04:59:51.780 --> 04:59:55.880
Especially with the way that he likes to roam around the map and affect the topside,

04:59:55.880 --> 04:59:58.780
Blitzcrank early roams can be nightmarish.

05:00:00.080 --> 05:00:04.680
Once more, NA has pushed the LCK to a game five.

05:00:04.680 --> 05:00:13.780
Once more, Inspired was trying to find the success on the Zinzow to keep the NA train rolling.

05:00:13.780 --> 05:00:20.340
The Dejon doubters have been there, but this would be a story for the history books

05:00:20.340 --> 05:00:28.260
I mean it would it would be a run where you have now beat four number one seats at MSI as an a they took down

05:00:28.260 --> 05:00:34.860
Furia they took down TSW they took down G2 if you in here you have knocked out four of the other five

05:00:35.020 --> 05:00:41.200
Number one seats from the tournament the only one remaining would be the one waiting in the finals in BLG

05:00:41.200 --> 05:00:46.540
It would be unequivocally the greatest performance we have ever seen from an NA team.

05:00:46.540 --> 05:00:52.940
But it's a lot easier said than done. You're talking about HLE, you're talking about the

05:00:52.940 --> 05:00:58.940
number one seed of the LCK, you're talking about players who individually have so many

05:00:58.940 --> 05:01:02.500
accomplishments. People talk about playing with the name plates off, the name plates

05:01:02.500 --> 05:01:06.860
are still there. Nice pull coming out from the light onto Isles nice and early, but Gumi

05:01:06.860 --> 05:01:09.300
Ushi has also already taken some trade damage.

05:01:09.300 --> 05:01:13.700
Exactly in the level one there a little bit top four blitz and they just play in the wave

05:01:13.700 --> 05:01:17.020
They get the shove they utilize that range support advantage here

05:01:17.020 --> 05:01:19.900
So even though the hook comes down it's not that much threat

05:01:19.900 --> 05:01:23.100
But saying he's gonna have to hold on as well a master of these

05:01:23.780 --> 05:01:26.300
Melee matchups here is tasting a horrible trade

05:01:26.300 --> 05:01:31.100
Yeah, don't the hits the taunt brings the eight rocks down to 200 HP and look at the path in from inspired

05:01:31.100 --> 05:01:36.540
Three camp into this top side could look for the potential play or just an invade off the back of this

05:01:36.540 --> 05:01:38.260
I mean, Dokla could kill him solo.

05:01:38.260 --> 05:01:41.140
Taunt Flash kills, I think, at this HP.

05:01:41.140 --> 05:01:42.540
It is close though.

05:01:42.540 --> 05:01:44.540
Zayas did pop his pot and has healed up.

05:01:44.540 --> 05:01:47.660
Dokla, I don't think going to want to send it on a Taunt Flash,

05:01:47.660 --> 05:01:49.900
but we are seeing an early base from Inspired.

05:01:49.900 --> 05:01:52.100
So he's going to go for that early base here

05:01:52.100 --> 05:01:54.100
and try to be there likely to cover bot.

05:01:54.100 --> 05:01:55.060
Yep, exactly.

05:01:55.060 --> 05:01:57.260
It's the plan where you clear one side of your jungle,

05:01:57.260 --> 05:01:58.740
you make your first purchase.

05:01:58.740 --> 05:02:01.460
Usually, you see Longsword being the choice on that one.

05:02:01.460 --> 05:02:03.140
Instead, going to go for the Ruby Crystal.

05:02:03.140 --> 05:02:04.540
Dokla goes in, finds the taunt.

05:02:04.540 --> 05:02:09.980
Yeah, again, Zeyas trying to get away there, but Dokla brings him down to 100 HP.

05:02:09.980 --> 05:02:13.020
This Shen matchup going well for Lyon here early on.

05:02:13.020 --> 05:02:17.580
I mean, this is brilliantly played from Dokla, but the easiest part of the matchup is the early levels.

05:02:17.580 --> 05:02:21.180
It really does get difficult as you get more points in that queue for Zeyas,

05:02:21.180 --> 05:02:26.140
and as the cooldowns become shorter and shorter, those windows of opportunity are very hard for Shen.

05:02:26.140 --> 05:02:29.500
And if you ever get knocked out of your taunt, it is a disaster.

05:02:29.500 --> 05:02:33.100
If you get hit by a sweet spot as you're taunting in, you are trapped there,

05:02:33.100 --> 05:02:37.580
You're chased down by the infernal chains and that is where it can become so so tough

05:02:37.580 --> 05:02:42.340
But Doka laning brilliantly to start things off and he has a better bias and advantage

05:02:42.460 --> 05:02:46.860
Get that refillable plus that ruby crystal and holds on to the TP crucially as well

05:02:46.860 --> 05:02:49.740
So very big start for the line top laner

05:02:50.260 --> 05:02:54.420
Already we're seeing kind of movement here from Saint just to make sure that the school of crowd went to inspired

05:02:54.420 --> 05:02:59.460
But can I be happy to handshake that on the top end is giving berserker a bit of time to push in on the bot side as well

05:02:59.460 --> 05:03:03.840
get his own reset so a slower pace early game favor and line those far yeah

05:03:03.840 --> 05:03:08.500
that absolutely is the question is how much do you have to give and how much

05:03:08.500 --> 05:03:12.940
can you give to be able to have a good chance in the team fights right line

05:03:12.940 --> 05:03:17.340
have to be able to make that judgment if the lanes just continue as as is this

05:03:17.340 --> 05:03:21.980
is fantastic for them but HLE are gonna look for plays you've got Italy you've

05:03:21.980 --> 05:03:26.740
got Blitz and St. Respecting yep St. does not want to get caught off guard by

05:03:26.740 --> 05:03:30.960
Canavi here also worth pointing out I want to shout out the exhaust on Berserker

05:03:30.960 --> 05:03:36.900
I feel like against Calista where so much of her damage comes from that big blast from the end of properly timed exhausts can turn a fight

05:03:36.900 --> 05:03:38.020
I agree completely

05:03:38.020 --> 05:03:43.780
I mean he used it very effectively in his Ezreal games and not even just the Calista, but it's great on Canavi

05:03:43.780 --> 05:03:45.780
It's great on Seis. It's great on Zeca. Oh

05:03:46.300 --> 05:03:49.100
Nice pull from Delight. It doesn't turn into a whole lot

05:03:49.100 --> 05:03:53.660
But he still gets a good chunk of damage there on Berserker as Gumi Ushi hits him at the pierce at the very end

05:03:53.660 --> 05:03:56.940
You're not the end of the road for berserk or kind of knew that Kuma Uchi wasn't that far away.

05:03:56.940 --> 05:04:01.820
So it doesn't burn anything to make that play extended or defended.

05:04:01.820 --> 05:04:06.780
So just manages to step away. And I think this is where, again, if Kuma Uchi liked it, some poke,

05:04:06.780 --> 05:04:10.300
not the end of the road. You've got the pots, you can heal it up. It's more a case of,

05:04:10.300 --> 05:04:15.020
if Kanabi ends up down in that pot side and you get a good hook, that's immediately into the spear.

05:04:15.020 --> 05:04:16.620
And that can be the devastating play.

05:04:16.620 --> 05:04:21.260
Or if you're overextended, you get too far up in that lane, and then all of a sudden you get hooked

05:04:21.260 --> 05:04:26.660
You get chased down, the spears are stacked, and Kanavi is going to be on his way down

05:04:26.660 --> 05:04:27.660
towards his bot side.

05:04:27.660 --> 05:04:29.340
That vision plant was hit by Delight, so they don't know.

05:04:29.340 --> 05:04:31.460
He can actually hook over the wall potentially here.

05:04:31.460 --> 05:04:34.260
Miles, maybe sussing it out, but if he gets too close, he could just be dead.

05:04:34.260 --> 05:04:36.460
Yep, they're waiting for the minions to pass.

05:04:36.460 --> 05:04:38.060
Delight's still waiting there.

05:04:38.060 --> 05:04:40.260
Fires off the hook, and he grabs himself!

05:04:40.260 --> 05:04:41.260
Miles!

05:04:41.260 --> 05:04:42.260
HLE!

05:04:42.260 --> 05:04:44.260
They don't find the kill!

05:04:44.260 --> 05:04:48.260
Ile stays alive with the heal and the flash, and he'll be able to walk it off.

05:04:48.260 --> 05:04:52.920
Now back in the mid lane, Saint trying to get something under Zeca, but he's level 5 against level 6.

05:04:52.920 --> 05:04:55.680
He ignites, prevents the Kingslayer from doing a lot of healing.

05:04:55.680 --> 05:04:57.480
Saint's out of health, not a man.

05:04:57.480 --> 05:05:01.800
Saint just trying to style on him a little bit as Delight rotates back over.

05:05:01.800 --> 05:05:03.960
Saint's feeling it, but he's got to be careful.

05:05:03.960 --> 05:05:07.920
Saint knew he needed to go for the All-In with the Ignite down, it would have been

05:05:07.920 --> 05:05:13.120
lights out if he ended up trying to step away, but gets to heal, gets to trade, and gets to go back.

05:05:13.120 --> 05:05:17.120
And I mean, surviving there for Saint is so massive, that is Zeca's ult and flashdown.

05:05:17.120 --> 05:05:23.360
Yeah, but now for Zerker, forced to flash as Delight uses his own to threaten a grab.

05:05:23.360 --> 05:05:28.280
For Zerker staying safe, but down to 200 HP without that Summoner Spell is dicey.

05:05:28.280 --> 05:05:33.400
I mean, St. Down informed big time now, so now these Goldies starting to open up a bit here.

05:05:33.400 --> 05:05:37.720
Inspired wants to go for the early Dragon, knowing that it is going to be a reset for Delight

05:05:37.720 --> 05:05:43.880
and that Zeca has no ignite, no ult, but instead deciding to pull off it here once again.

05:05:43.880 --> 05:05:46.880
And, Azale, you talked about how all these lanes early on

05:05:46.880 --> 05:05:50.880
are going to be losing matchups for the side of Lyon,

05:05:50.880 --> 05:05:54.480
HLE up to a few hundred gold of an early laning advantage.

05:05:54.480 --> 05:05:58.380
The biggest difference here in mid lane, 60 to 44

05:05:58.380 --> 05:06:03.180
in terms of farm count as Zeca has been controlling this head-to-head.

05:06:03.180 --> 05:06:04.880
Obviously, as the game goes forward,

05:06:04.880 --> 05:06:08.280
Saint is going to look to be the X-Factor in the teamfights.

05:06:08.280 --> 05:06:11.880
Yeah, exactly. And Saint is going to be getting stronger and stronger here.

05:06:11.880 --> 05:06:13.080
Gooma and Delight looking.

05:06:13.080 --> 05:06:17.380
Yeah, Delight goes right on and just walks up and knocks Beserker up into the air.

05:06:17.380 --> 05:06:22.080
But if he could by handshake it off a mile, the Shen Ulti stand united.

05:06:22.080 --> 05:06:24.760
But Beserker is first blooded by Delight.

05:06:24.760 --> 05:06:28.460
Doppler couldn't complete the Ulti because he's interrupted by Zeyas.

05:06:28.460 --> 05:06:31.660
H-L-E coming out on top.

05:06:31.660 --> 05:06:36.060
The interruption from Zeyas turns everything.

05:06:36.060 --> 05:06:38.740
It looked like Lion might have been able to find the play,

05:06:38.740 --> 05:06:44.180
But it's the mistime on the ulti, denies the revive, denies the follow-up.

05:06:44.180 --> 05:06:47.340
It's... Ooh, nearly awk at the aisles as well.

05:06:47.340 --> 05:06:50.300
Yeah, HLE, that is so big for them now.

05:06:50.300 --> 05:06:51.740
You get that kill.

05:06:51.740 --> 05:06:56.980
Fortunately for Lion, the gold did go to Delight, but it's a 1.4K golding gear already.

05:06:56.980 --> 05:06:57.300
Yeah.

05:06:57.300 --> 05:07:01.020
Miu is gonna be hard to withstand this onslaught, and they just played this out very well.

05:07:01.020 --> 05:07:06.500
He goes out into the alcove, headflash over, gets straight in onto Berserker,

05:07:06.500 --> 05:07:10.600
And you go to live and this is what the Shen vs. Hrox match usually looks like.

05:07:10.600 --> 05:07:13.900
You are stuck under your tower and Goom is able to flash out with no health.

05:07:13.900 --> 05:07:17.800
But you can see just barely the bailout doesn't come through.

05:07:17.800 --> 05:07:19.700
And I think it was a little mistimed.

05:07:19.700 --> 05:07:22.900
You had that Shen ultimate come through at the same time as the bailouts.

05:07:22.900 --> 05:07:24.300
So not quite able to make it happen.

05:07:24.300 --> 05:07:27.000
It was a good flash away from Goomayushi to turn the tides.

05:07:27.000 --> 05:07:31.200
Yeah, it's hard to know in those situations, you know, in that panic moment.

05:07:31.200 --> 05:07:32.500
Did he use it too early?

05:07:32.500 --> 05:07:35.700
Was he worried about that Ren coming through a little bit quicker

05:07:35.700 --> 05:07:38.260
and maybe getting that kill and now Doku up.

05:07:38.260 --> 05:07:39.300
This is where it gets so tough.

05:07:39.300 --> 05:07:41.440
You get stuck under your tower

05:07:41.440 --> 05:07:43.040
and you get the Melee's for free,

05:07:43.040 --> 05:07:44.840
but every time you try to farm arrangement

05:07:44.840 --> 05:07:47.680
in this matchup, you are just fishing a barrel.

05:07:47.680 --> 05:07:49.340
He's just throwing queues on the range mains

05:07:49.340 --> 05:07:51.620
over and over and over and slowly, but surely

05:07:51.620 --> 05:07:54.180
Atrox just builds a bigger and bigger lead.

05:07:54.180 --> 05:07:57.420
It really is one of my least favorite 10 matchups.

05:07:57.420 --> 05:07:59.360
I know you play a lot of shang.

05:07:59.360 --> 05:08:00.820
They are trying to move them out of the matchup though

05:08:00.820 --> 05:08:04.160
and rotate Zaya up into this top end.

05:08:04.160 --> 05:08:07.740
Actually, just gonna HLE, gonna not swap into it either.

05:08:07.740 --> 05:08:11.100
Kind of moving everyone up to fight for these Void Grubs.

05:08:11.100 --> 05:08:16.300
Yep, you can see though, you've still got Gumi Yoshi on the bottom side of the rift.

05:08:16.300 --> 05:08:20.140
Yoko also taking up his position down there, but he's got no stand united, he's got no teleport,

05:08:20.140 --> 05:08:24.420
so he won't be able to join for any sort of a fight, so HLE will continue to own the Grubs.

05:08:24.420 --> 05:08:27.660
There's the charm hook. Beautiful charm, and the follow up with the Grubs.

05:08:27.660 --> 05:08:32.460
Taka looking to make the play here on safely steals the RELT back for the first time in a long time.

05:08:32.460 --> 05:08:37.000
Because it's Ryder, they get the kill, and Saint stays alive!

05:08:37.000 --> 05:08:42.540
Lyon sends up a prayer, and Saint will answer, and now Guma fighting Dokla!

05:08:42.540 --> 05:08:46.800
Yeah, Dokla going in after this Kalista needs a little bit more damage, but he cannot find it.

05:08:46.800 --> 05:08:52.540
Gumi is already using the rend down to 150 HP, but he stays alive as Delight rejoins his carry.

05:08:52.540 --> 05:08:55.740
Great trade for Dokla though, because it means he gets to push in this wave.

05:08:55.740 --> 05:09:00.800
You've got the reset for the Kalista, and actually movement from Lyon towards his topside.

05:09:00.800 --> 05:09:05.100
Delight just trying to stop this way from crashing Delight going to be trying to be as annoying as possible

05:09:05.100 --> 05:09:07.460
Doko wants a plate and I think he will be able to get it

05:09:07.460 --> 05:09:11.220
And so we get that plate and it don't look and get towards that Titanic

05:09:11.340 --> 05:09:17.860
That starts to mitigate a lot of the difficulties in these matches because your wave here becomes so powerful at that point

05:09:18.660 --> 05:09:21.620
You see here though with Saints just underneath the terror

05:09:21.620 --> 05:09:24.380
I think they have it with the charm with the knock-up

05:09:24.380 --> 05:09:32.680
But immediately, Sane steals the old double dashes, and Zeca overextending when inspired there to support the mid laner.

05:09:32.680 --> 05:09:42.380
And watch inspired in that moment, he has the presence of mind, he preps the Q3 knockup on the birds, over the wall, flashes in and immediately knocks up Zeca.

05:09:42.380 --> 05:09:52.880
Sane survives, they get that kill and that is just so critical because you're already down 1.5k, you're trying to hold on. That is the objective here for Lyon.

05:09:52.880 --> 05:09:59.680
And Zeca has been such a playmaker for his teams in Game 5s, 9 and 2 in Game 5s.

05:09:59.680 --> 05:10:07.180
We've seen him win world championships from this position, but Sainten inspired able to stop him in his tracks there.

05:10:07.180 --> 05:10:11.280
Alright, Delight still potentially looking for angles down here in the bottom side.

05:10:11.280 --> 05:10:16.380
Canavi is going to join up with his bottom lane duo, but inspired is also in the area.

05:10:16.380 --> 05:10:17.880
Keep your eyes on Delight here.

05:10:17.880 --> 05:10:21.480
This is a dangerous moment for Lion. Look at the top side of the map.

05:10:21.480 --> 05:10:24.720
Three completed items for HLE, none until just now.

05:10:24.720 --> 05:10:27.820
Four inspired, they are at their weakest right now.

05:10:27.820 --> 05:10:31.420
And Zayas is looking strong, given this 1v1,

05:10:31.420 --> 05:10:35.460
continuing to find multiple good trades against Doku.

05:10:35.460 --> 05:10:39.080
Kannafi with his Lich Bane can chew through this dragon so easily,

05:10:39.080 --> 05:10:41.980
and HLE, again, it's not a fast first drake,

05:10:41.980 --> 05:10:43.580
but it's an HLE first drake.

05:10:43.580 --> 05:10:46.020
But a slow first drake is all that Lion wants.

05:10:46.020 --> 05:10:47.460
It's fired here to cover the play.

05:10:47.460 --> 05:10:49.720
They want to cover everything from HLE.

05:10:49.720 --> 05:10:51.440
will be Kanabi backing away.

05:10:51.440 --> 05:10:53.360
But as long as you keep this pace,

05:10:53.360 --> 05:10:56.680
I think you're kind of happy as line shirts of 1.7 K Gold lead.

05:10:56.680 --> 05:11:00.520
But most of that is tough playing and not too advantageous right now.

05:11:01.240 --> 05:11:03.720
Zerker utilizing his opportunity to step forward,

05:11:03.720 --> 05:11:05.600
trying to treat aggressively a little bit into the light,

05:11:05.600 --> 05:11:07.960
but the Blitzcrank isn't too bothered by it.

05:11:07.960 --> 05:11:09.680
Yeah, I mean, look at all the vision from HLE

05:11:09.680 --> 05:11:11.680
across the river on both sides of the map.

05:11:11.680 --> 05:11:14.400
They have all the wards right now.

05:11:14.400 --> 05:11:16.480
It is full-core press for HLE.

05:11:16.480 --> 05:11:19.640
Yeah, delight. Now going to get jumped on by inspired.

05:11:19.640 --> 05:11:25.280
Who isn't going to full-standing in here just yet, but teleport coming in from HLE, nice pull from Delight.

05:11:25.280 --> 05:11:28.920
He's hitting so many of these as Gumiuchi tries to save with support.

05:11:28.920 --> 05:11:31.760
Seiya's just over here right, but Doku's ready to follow here with a stay in United.

05:11:31.760 --> 05:11:33.760
Stain also making his way down into the bottom lane.

05:11:33.760 --> 05:11:36.240
Gumiuchi barely survives, Stain picks him out.

05:11:36.240 --> 05:11:41.200
But Lai is in danger. They've already lost, inspired. They've already lost Ile.

05:11:41.200 --> 05:11:46.880
Seiya's in the front line of the RAID boss here with the Aatrox. Q3 won't find the target, he heals over the massive.

05:11:46.880 --> 05:11:49.200
Zayas still staying alive for now.

05:11:49.200 --> 05:11:51.040
Triple kill back from Asaka.

05:11:51.040 --> 05:11:54.720
H-L-E making the plays.

05:11:54.720 --> 05:11:56.040
St. Bradley hanging on.

05:11:56.040 --> 05:11:57.640
Dope is still alive for now.

05:11:57.640 --> 05:12:00.600
But Zayas refuses to die.

05:12:00.600 --> 05:12:02.480
HLE still looking for a little bit more.

05:12:02.480 --> 05:12:05.200
And Dopela surely has no way out here.

05:12:05.200 --> 05:12:09.120
Lyon staring down the barrel of an nearly impossible scenario.

05:12:09.120 --> 05:12:10.960
Blitzcrank hook fails.

05:12:10.960 --> 05:12:12.880
They're still trying to look.

05:12:12.880 --> 05:12:18.020
But this sequence means an over 3,000 gold lead for HLE.

05:12:18.020 --> 05:12:22.800
This top lane god does not bleed.

05:12:22.800 --> 05:12:30.940
Zaeus stays alive with Sundert Sky, with the Omni-Vamp and line cannot defy him.

05:12:30.940 --> 05:12:36.240
And it's by the slimmest of margins here, so many big plays from the HLE members.

05:12:36.240 --> 05:12:38.840
As the initial fight looks like it's going to be pretty good.

05:12:38.840 --> 05:12:42.520
Inspired gets hooked in and says, okay, we just got to send it on to Goomayushi.

05:12:42.520 --> 05:12:49.400
go straight in with the stand united they get the taunt flash from Dokla here on to Guma and they try to burst him down

05:12:49.400 --> 05:12:56.640
But then in comes Zayas the bailout onto inspire does basically nothing and now watch this hook in the later end of the fight

05:12:56.640 --> 05:13:01.040
Zayas is getting fairly low berserker flashes back and this hook on to Saint

05:13:01.040 --> 05:13:05.040
I think could be game winning because Saint was just about to kill Zayas

05:13:05.200 --> 05:13:09.520
But with the hook from delight not only does Zayas live Saint dies

05:13:09.520 --> 05:13:14.520
and that might be the backbreaker right there.

05:13:14.520 --> 05:13:20.520
The predict by Zayas on the flush as well keeps him in range for the Sunder Sky Proc

05:13:20.520 --> 05:13:27.520
that lets the lice keep him safe. HLE, the slimmest of margins,

05:13:27.520 --> 05:13:34.520
but those margins are growing. A 4,000 gold lead inspired running as Saint may be left here.

05:13:34.520 --> 05:13:39.320
here. Delight with a 90% win rate on Blitzcrank in his career and you can see

05:13:39.320 --> 05:13:44.720
why here in this game landing so many hooks over and over and over. It's such a

05:13:44.720 --> 05:13:48.640
Heaven or Hell champion. You hit the hook, you're the MVP, you miss it, you're a

05:13:48.640 --> 05:13:53.440
cannon minion and Delight is making so many plays. Your coin base gold grind

05:13:53.440 --> 05:13:59.200
showing another problem here for the lion side as Zayas is just such a monster

05:13:59.200 --> 05:14:02.960
Here when they say trucks. Yeah, it's gonna be so hard for lion now

05:14:03.540 --> 05:14:10.160
Feels like it's that 1% chance. You're hoping for a saint might just get dough. They're looking he clears out the waves

05:14:10.240 --> 05:14:15.080
They as backs away inspired jumps in after Kenobi blue smite flash away from Kenobi

05:14:15.080 --> 05:14:22.160
Oh, and Saint just barely misses hitting him with the abduct Kenobi stays safe. I cannot believe that didn't connect

05:14:23.000 --> 05:14:24.800
Just tiny

05:14:24.800 --> 05:14:30.880
Pixels away from maybe finding that kill on to the HLE jungler, but it still means pressure mid

05:14:30.920 --> 05:14:36.440
They're getting plates for Guma Yushi. They're keeping the pressure bot lane and liner scrambling to keep pace

05:14:37.160 --> 05:14:40.680
Lion trying to defend this tier one turret here in mid Kenavi

05:14:40.920 --> 05:14:49.840
He's rescued by the mcales from delight this blitzcrank is making such a different time and time and time again

05:14:49.840 --> 05:14:53.080
Again, Kenalvi, once more, just fine.

05:14:53.080 --> 05:14:57.220
The delight is just playing an absolutely brilliant game

05:14:57.220 --> 05:15:00.480
with the pressure on an elimination series here.

05:15:00.480 --> 05:15:03.400
There was two match points they had to contend with.

05:15:03.400 --> 05:15:06.520
They barely got by the last one,

05:15:06.520 --> 05:15:08.960
thanks to a big fight in that topside

05:15:08.960 --> 05:15:11.560
where they were able to take over.

05:15:11.560 --> 05:15:13.480
And this time, they were building

05:15:13.480 --> 05:15:14.960
that incremental goal lead.

05:15:14.960 --> 05:15:18.560
And again, it is one big fight that feels like

05:15:18.560 --> 05:15:21.400
It may have got them across the line.

05:15:21.400 --> 05:15:24.640
HLE have hit their strides, push in side lanes,

05:15:24.640 --> 05:15:26.640
control for Zayas and Zeka.

05:15:26.640 --> 05:15:29.360
The ability to collapse around Fumayushi.

05:15:29.360 --> 05:15:32.880
This is where HLE have stood tall in the LCKs.

05:15:32.880 --> 05:15:35.520
The most threatening LCK representative,

05:15:35.520 --> 05:15:38.320
Ripcaro taking the eye left.

05:15:38.320 --> 05:15:40.760
And now, Inspire just getting caught out.

05:15:40.760 --> 05:15:41.640
Could be in some danger.

05:15:41.640 --> 05:15:43.960
San United trying to keep him alive a little bit longer.

05:15:43.960 --> 05:15:45.840
Hostile takeover, finding a little bit of value here.

05:15:45.840 --> 05:15:47.360
It's getting obvious the first to die.

05:15:47.360 --> 05:15:54.940
KS in the middle of every body, making some space in firecrackers, and Zeca, and the HLE solo laders making the difference again!

05:15:54.940 --> 05:16:00.820
Zeca finally falls, but he's gonna take St. with him, and Ryushin still hopping around, and Delight barely got away.

05:16:00.820 --> 05:16:07.480
St. coming back in to get something, but Dokka will not kill Delight, and only St. and I are still Sam.

05:16:07.480 --> 05:16:13.620
St. can't do anything to 1v3, and Ryushin executes them where he's staying.

05:16:13.620 --> 05:16:20.500
Delight again over the wall. This time it's Dokla pulled into the tower when he thought he had Guma.

05:16:20.500 --> 05:16:26.620
But these solo laders from A-Telly are just too damn good.

05:16:26.620 --> 05:16:31.920
You can throw every summoner spell on Zayas, but that man is never exhausted.

05:16:31.920 --> 05:16:37.960
As he flies into the midst of line, he absolutely tears them asunder.

05:16:37.960 --> 05:16:46.300
Second, Charms inspired, Zayas dives on to Berserker, the healing is absurd from this A-Trucks.

05:16:47.500 --> 05:16:50.920
There is no taking down this HLE top laner.

05:16:50.920 --> 05:16:55.960
They just don't have the damage, he keeps getting the resets and the bailout from Isles there went on to St.

05:16:55.960 --> 05:16:58.100
You have to think it was meant for Berserker.

05:16:58.100 --> 05:17:02.640
Maybe that could have bought them a little time, if that expires and the hook doesn't land on Dota.

05:17:02.640 --> 05:17:05.240
Maybe, just maybe there's a way.

05:17:05.240 --> 05:17:11.180
But every fight is pushing it further and further out of reach. It's a 7,000

05:17:11.180 --> 05:17:16.140
gold lead. The largest of the series for HLE, it feels like by far.

05:17:16.140 --> 05:17:20.540
Lyon coming in trying to see if there's anything they can do but no, instead it's

05:17:20.540 --> 05:17:28.540
just another beautiful pull from Delight. Zacharrage, St. Dice, the Baylight does nothing.

05:17:28.540 --> 05:17:33.040
HLE pushed to the limit. Here it is Lyon.

05:17:33.040 --> 05:17:41.880
But with the flood of missing finals on the line, they refuse 8,500 gold lead, HLE 11 kill.

05:17:41.880 --> 05:17:50.680
When the chips are down, that's where champions are made, and HLE have them out the wazoo.

05:17:50.680 --> 05:17:55.480
They are playing out of their minds to lice these hooks.

05:17:55.480 --> 05:17:59.160
This Blitzcrank is defining this series.

05:17:59.160 --> 05:18:02.740
It's breaking the back of an entire region here.

05:18:02.740 --> 05:18:08.140
This Blitzcrank is doing everything for HLE.

05:18:08.140 --> 05:18:12.040
And Zaeus, with not a kill to his name, is 1.5K ahead.

05:18:12.040 --> 05:18:15.080
He's a brick wall in the top lane.

05:18:15.080 --> 05:18:17.420
They've got no healing debuffs for him in the fights.

05:18:17.420 --> 05:18:18.760
They're just so far behind.

05:18:18.760 --> 05:18:23.060
They're grasping at straws, trying to find a way in.

05:18:23.060 --> 05:18:25.500
But it's going to take a series of miracles for them

05:18:25.500 --> 05:18:26.600
to even have a chance.

05:18:26.600 --> 05:18:28.160
They have BrambleVest on Dough Club.

05:18:28.160 --> 05:18:30.560
but BrambleVest is passive healing reduction.

05:18:30.560 --> 05:18:31.560
You have to hit him.

05:18:31.560 --> 05:18:34.600
There's no reason for Zayas to ever be doing that

05:18:34.600 --> 05:18:35.920
in these big fights.

05:18:35.920 --> 05:18:37.400
Sure, he can hit him with Qs,

05:18:37.400 --> 05:18:39.480
but there's no reason to ever hit an auto attack,

05:18:39.480 --> 05:18:41.760
so you just can't stop the regeneration.

05:18:41.760 --> 05:18:43.800
And it's gonna be harder to kill the Squishies as well.

05:18:43.800 --> 05:18:46.080
Gumi Ushi picking up that Wardens mail.

05:18:46.080 --> 05:18:48.280
He is gonna be fairly tanky as line.

05:18:48.280 --> 05:18:52.360
Continue the pressure, but HLE will keep evading.

05:18:52.360 --> 05:18:54.080
I mean, Lyon are just gonna keep full sending it.

05:18:54.080 --> 05:18:56.120
They know that you're 10K down.

05:18:56.120 --> 05:18:57.240
You cannot play the game.

05:18:57.240 --> 05:18:59.280
Normally they're trying to overload one side of the map.

05:18:59.280 --> 05:19:01.680
They're hoping that HLE gets sloppy,

05:19:01.680 --> 05:19:03.840
that they can get kill after kill after kill.

05:19:03.840 --> 05:19:04.960
But here comes HLE.

05:19:04.960 --> 05:19:07.280
Yep, Delight finds another beautiful ball,

05:19:07.280 --> 05:19:09.440
inspired about to die.

05:19:09.440 --> 05:19:11.480
The stand united tries to keep him alive.

05:19:11.480 --> 05:19:13.600
But no, Delight with the execution.

05:19:13.600 --> 05:19:14.920
Say it survives.

05:19:14.920 --> 05:19:17.040
Wing spread wide.

05:19:17.040 --> 05:19:20.080
And Lyon would be buried in the enemy jungle.

05:19:20.080 --> 05:19:24.120
Three already dead as Stain and Doka have to try to escape.

05:19:24.120 --> 05:19:28.940
Uchi Delight and Zeka chasing after saying no matter how good his Silas is

05:19:28.940 --> 05:19:34.620
there's no way out. Tokla trapping through Terrence is the only man left

05:19:34.620 --> 05:19:43.020
standing on Lyon and HLE get five for nothing. There's no coming back for Lyon.

05:19:43.020 --> 05:19:50.860
Twenty minutes on the clock and 11,000 gold lead, immediate turn to Baron. HLE

05:19:50.860 --> 05:19:54.460
He wants the rematch with Billy, Billy Gaming.

05:19:54.460 --> 05:19:56.740
And I think they're about to get it here.

05:19:56.740 --> 05:19:59.140
20 minutes in, as you said, Baron.

05:19:59.140 --> 05:20:05.740
11,000 gold lead and Lyon can find no purchase in this game.

05:20:05.740 --> 05:20:09.580
They bet it all on their ability to withstand the onslaught

05:20:09.580 --> 05:20:12.780
that would be the early game here against HLE.

05:20:12.780 --> 05:20:19.340
But HLE, in those critical fights, just played better.

05:20:19.340 --> 05:20:23.300
You have to feel for inspired this man has pushed the LCK

05:20:28.100 --> 05:20:33.900
But Zaka he's so far ahead he just instantly deletes the lion 80 carry

05:20:34.740 --> 05:20:39.580
I get to see the replay here inspired on the war actually not even on a ward

05:20:39.580 --> 05:20:45.840
There it is doesn't decide that he's the back away thinks he's got the support alive thinks he's got that channeled

05:20:45.840 --> 05:20:52.800
but every one from HLE shows up he falls only to watch the rest of the team go

05:20:52.800 --> 05:20:57.720
with them. I was trying as he best he can trying to keep Berserker alive.

05:20:57.720 --> 05:21:03.680
Lyon are full sending it and they know they would rather go out fighting but

05:21:03.680 --> 05:21:07.600
they have to see the writing on the wall they have to know that this one is one

05:21:07.600 --> 05:21:11.160
fight commanding HLE pushing they're trying to get gold on the map. The

05:21:11.160 --> 05:21:16.400
The Riding is on the turrets now as Berserker is forced to ult immediately, Delight forcing

05:21:16.400 --> 05:21:20.080
out that critical defensive ultimate from the enemy AD carry.

05:21:20.080 --> 05:21:25.600
As the bottom lane inhibitor is destroyed 21 minutes into the game, HLE now putting pressure

05:21:25.600 --> 05:21:30.640
on the mid lane, second inhibitor about to fall, Delight looking for another pull, instead

05:21:30.640 --> 05:21:34.520
just gets the knockup on the Dopa as HLE dog piles in.

05:21:34.520 --> 05:21:37.800
Stokeless first to die, but he will not die alone.

05:21:37.800 --> 05:21:42.840
Inspire joins him as Lion panic and run back to the mountain.

05:21:42.840 --> 05:21:47.840
H-L-E will rise to the occasion.

05:21:47.840 --> 05:21:50.680
They will chase down the last kill of the fight.

05:21:50.680 --> 05:21:53.880
Zayas will not even fall.

05:21:53.880 --> 05:21:57.120
North American dreams are dashed as H-On.

05:21:57.120 --> 05:21:58.640
Lion are vanquished.

05:21:58.640 --> 05:22:00.400
HL are victorious.

05:22:00.400 --> 05:22:03.320
And they are in their place in the final.

05:22:03.320 --> 05:22:07.280
A rematch is waiting for HLE.

05:22:07.280 --> 05:22:12.680
The LPL Giants will take on the LCK first seed

05:22:12.680 --> 05:22:17.440
and show Deijon what they're worth.

05:22:17.440 --> 05:22:22.200
HLE going to look to end that golden road early for BLG,

05:22:22.200 --> 05:22:24.200
the winners of first in.

05:22:24.200 --> 05:22:27.760
The team that took them down in the upper bracket.

05:22:27.760 --> 05:22:30.920
It is revenge in the guards here for HLE.

05:22:30.920 --> 05:22:33.780
they're looking to knock him down a peg.

05:22:33.780 --> 05:22:35.740
It wouldn't be the first time some of these players

05:22:35.740 --> 05:22:37.420
have done just that.

05:22:37.420 --> 05:22:41.500
They would love to do it again in front of a home crowd.

05:22:41.500 --> 05:22:44.620
But on the opposite side, four line,

05:22:44.620 --> 05:22:46.940
it is heartbreak for this team.

05:22:46.940 --> 05:22:51.940
I don't think anyone can doubt the room they've had here

05:22:51.940 --> 05:22:55.540
in Korea, one of the most impressive performances

05:22:55.540 --> 05:22:58.580
against an LCK first team I've ever seen.

05:22:58.580 --> 05:22:59.460
Absolutely.

05:22:59.460 --> 05:23:01.620
People question, were they lucky?

05:23:01.620 --> 05:23:02.980
Did they deserve to be here?

05:23:02.980 --> 05:23:04.980
And they prove without a question,

05:23:04.980 --> 05:23:08.580
without a shadow of a doubt that they belong on this stage

05:23:08.580 --> 05:23:11.140
against teams like that.

05:23:11.140 --> 05:23:14.260
And that's enough for us for now.

05:23:14.260 --> 05:23:17.100
Let's toss things back over to the analyst desk

05:23:17.100 --> 05:23:19.300
to wrap up the series.

05:23:19.300 --> 05:23:22.700
The wait for the LCS remains in taking down

05:23:22.700 --> 05:23:29.100
that all important LCK team inspired, tried again and again,

05:23:29.100 --> 05:23:35.240
Lion and everyone they truly truly fought like lions at this MSI championship

05:23:35.240 --> 05:23:40.900
It is just that one hurdle right what it is. It's almost impossible to describe

05:23:41.300 --> 05:23:49.460
How difficult it is to win those game fives in these situations it is and I think this game five was actually very

05:23:49.620 --> 05:23:51.700
Similar to game two in this series

05:23:51.700 --> 05:23:57.140
It was one of those games where lion was picking something that just needed to hold on and win one early skirmish

05:23:57.140 --> 05:24:00.800
To be able to have a chance and when the blitz hooks kept

05:24:00.800 --> 05:24:07.560
Wow being or the ones I a feather couldn't get through or the one hit onto Guma you she when the channel came through didn't kill

05:24:08.060 --> 05:24:14.980
It fell apart pretty fast. Yeah, and I gotta commend HLE for their approach in this game 5 Emily

05:24:15.220 --> 05:24:21.560
Delights hooks early really set up this way. Yeah, so he's has a 90% win rate on blitz cream

05:24:21.560 --> 05:24:26.560
He's now well he did going into this game. He's now ten and one he was nine and one

05:24:26.560 --> 05:24:32.620
Oh, so it's more now and the hook. Yeah, it's over 90% the hook on the backside of this fight

05:24:32.620 --> 05:24:38.200
Yeah, it's so huge and this was the backbreaker because I fully agree with you Jack game to

05:24:39.120 --> 05:24:41.120
There right there

05:24:44.400 --> 05:24:49.420
It's it was so important that each a lead also end up winning that fight

05:24:49.420 --> 05:24:53.460
But the fact that it went it was like by the slimmest of margins

05:24:53.740 --> 05:25:01.420
Mm-hmm towards HLE they then were able to snowball and take over and Kobe you did it to me this morning

05:25:08.260 --> 05:25:15.840
But you know what it was really fun the journey the excitement yes the roller coaster that we were on the peaks that we felt

05:25:15.840 --> 05:25:17.840
I mean, still worth the trough.

05:25:17.840 --> 05:25:19.840
Is it?

05:25:19.840 --> 05:25:21.840
It's worth it. It's worth it.

05:25:21.840 --> 05:25:23.840
Like, it's good. It's good. Overall, good.

05:25:23.840 --> 05:25:25.840
Now, bad. Like, we were up 2-1.

05:25:25.840 --> 05:25:27.840
We were gonna do it. We were gonna be in finals.

05:25:27.840 --> 05:25:29.840
So, half of our league was gonna be...

05:25:29.840 --> 05:25:31.840
Half of our league was gonna be at Worlds.

05:25:31.840 --> 05:25:33.840
We were gonna meme it for months.

05:25:33.840 --> 05:25:35.840
It was gonna be so funny.

05:25:35.840 --> 05:25:37.840
Right now, it's just the end of the day. BDU again.

05:25:37.840 --> 05:25:39.840
You've done that before.

05:25:39.840 --> 05:25:41.840
Sure. But now you're taking that away from us

05:25:41.840 --> 05:25:43.840
because it's no longer like a cool thing.

05:25:43.840 --> 05:25:48.040
It is a cool thing. I'm taking nothing away from that. You stomped them into that. It happens.

05:25:48.040 --> 05:25:50.440
No, it's great. It's great. It's just right now.

05:25:50.440 --> 05:25:53.140
It's all about right now. It just feels bad. Of course.

05:25:53.140 --> 05:25:55.240
Yeah, it feels bad. It feels awful.

05:25:55.240 --> 05:25:57.240
Who feels great, though, is...

05:25:59.240 --> 05:26:01.440
Zeus. He's our oppo player of the series.

05:26:01.440 --> 05:26:04.340
I think if we get there before the interview, maybe we can take a look.

05:26:04.340 --> 05:26:04.940
I don't know if we are.

05:26:04.940 --> 05:26:07.240
Yeah, I mean, Zeus was completely unstoppable.

05:26:07.240 --> 05:26:08.040
Yeah, yeah.

05:26:08.040 --> 05:26:09.640
We can get to that either before or after.

05:26:09.640 --> 05:26:16.440
Aatrox is that kill your team like I've seen it many times guys. Yeah, his rumble was also

05:26:17.080 --> 05:26:18.840
Absolutely insane

05:26:18.840 --> 05:26:22.480
His swaying that swaying pick had such a key

05:26:23.040 --> 05:26:27.760
Part in that draft and ended up taking over in front lining for so many other fights

05:26:27.760 --> 05:26:28.080
Yeah

05:26:28.080 --> 05:26:34.320
I think the biggest thing that he had here is he kept finding picks that if he got ahead would take over the game

05:26:34.320 --> 05:26:39.000
Yeah, so he was able to carry them across the finish line and the whole time you could tell you know

05:26:39.000 --> 05:26:40.520
We're terrified of Zaeus.

05:26:40.520 --> 05:26:43.280
We're banning Jace, banning Jace until we play it.

05:26:43.280 --> 05:26:44.880
So it's fearlessly banned out.

05:26:44.880 --> 05:26:47.600
And then we finally open up a little bit of ban space.

05:26:47.600 --> 05:26:50.360
And he's like, the swain, a movable.

05:26:50.360 --> 05:26:53.440
And then the Ajax become a killer movable.

05:26:53.440 --> 05:26:55.160
And he is an absolute beast.

05:26:55.160 --> 05:26:57.480
You know, Doka, as we said at the top of the show,

05:26:57.480 --> 05:26:59.120
had a lot of respect for him.

05:26:59.120 --> 05:27:01.200
He was talking about, all right, I'm just going to have to hold on.

05:27:01.200 --> 05:27:04.280
On stage right now, we have Gumi Nishi for the Horizon close game interview.

05:27:09.000 --> 05:27:15.000
MSI 20-26, the lost hurdle before the final.

05:27:15.000 --> 05:27:24.000
In the matchup between HANA Life Esports and Lyon, HANA Life come out on top with 3-2-2 victory.

05:27:24.000 --> 05:27:28.000
We are joined by HANA Life Esports Kuma Yushi. Please give it up for him everyone.

05:27:28.000 --> 05:27:35.000
How does it feel to make it to the MSI final?

05:27:35.000 --> 05:27:43.000
How was the match today? The game was really intense. The Lion almost swallowed us.

05:27:43.000 --> 05:27:48.000
I'm so relieved and happy that we won today and made it to the finals.

05:27:48.000 --> 05:27:57.000
Lion came into today with a lot of momentum after sweeping G2-0 yesterday.

05:27:57.000 --> 05:28:02.000
And today's series was definitely not as easy as some might have expected.

05:28:02.000 --> 05:28:07.000
What was it like battling the Lions of N.A.?

05:28:07.000 --> 05:28:16.000
They were really strong. They were performance, their gameplay, their macro play was so one point.

05:28:16.000 --> 05:28:21.000
What was the most important thing in the series today?

05:28:21.000 --> 05:28:36.000
Some of the games, our team fight was not as clean as we should have played, so we really wanted to kind of pull up a cleaner team fight, and as we headed to the game 5, we wanted to keep our mental fortitude strong.

05:28:40.000 --> 05:28:44.000
Going all the way to game 5 must have been really exhausting. How are you feeling right now?

05:28:44.000 --> 05:28:48.800
Now, I've got a bit, but we have a match to play tomorrow as well.

05:28:48.800 --> 05:28:52.160
We're veterans, so we're used to it.

05:28:52.160 --> 05:28:54.160
We're going to play tomorrow.

05:28:54.160 --> 05:29:01.760
It must be quite tired and hungry at this point.

05:29:01.760 --> 05:29:05.600
So to celebrate your grand final convocation,

05:29:05.600 --> 05:29:08.800
we prepared a Dagen specialty for you.

05:29:08.800 --> 05:29:14.800
The Daejeon's famous pastry strikes a burrow with sweet potato filling in it.

05:29:15.800 --> 05:29:17.800
Please take a bite of it.

05:29:26.800 --> 05:29:30.800
Hope this recreates your legendary cross-up moments, but Daejeon version.

05:29:31.800 --> 05:29:32.800
How does it taste?

05:29:34.800 --> 05:29:37.800
Extremely good, but in Daejeon accent.

05:29:38.800 --> 05:29:43.800
Thank you very much, Kuma Yushi.

05:29:43.800 --> 05:29:50.800
And tomorrow, you will face BLG with the MSI trophy on the line.

05:29:50.800 --> 05:29:55.800
This is your chance to get your revenge for the loss, loss. Are you confident?

05:29:59.800 --> 05:30:03.800
We have never lost confidence against BLG.

05:30:03.800 --> 05:30:12.800
We were never not confident up against BLG and we will make sure that we will be the champion of the MSI.

05:30:17.800 --> 05:30:21.800
What is your prediction for two more scorelines up against BLG then?

05:30:26.800 --> 05:30:31.800
I wish I could say that scoreline, but I want to be a little more humble.

05:30:31.800 --> 05:30:33.800
So 3-1 HANA Life.

05:30:33.800 --> 05:30:37.800
HANA Life will win 3-1 against BLG.

05:30:37.800 --> 05:30:39.800
Will they win the game?

05:30:39.800 --> 05:30:41.800
Let's send them a warm welcome.

05:30:41.800 --> 05:30:43.800
Let's give it up for the time being.

05:30:43.800 --> 05:30:44.800
You see.

05:30:51.800 --> 05:30:53.800
And before we go to close out the interview.

05:30:53.800 --> 05:30:56.800
Anything you would like to say to all the fans out there.

05:30:56.800 --> 05:30:59.800
Great Korea. Here at Daejeon.

05:30:59.800 --> 05:31:06.800
Daejeon. I will make sure that Honolive Sports will win the trophy tomorrow.

05:31:06.800 --> 05:31:09.800
And that's what I see from Honolive Sports. Thank you very much.

05:31:13.800 --> 05:31:17.800
Let's go! Are we going to keep feeding him stuff on stage?

05:31:17.800 --> 05:31:21.800
Bring him some liquid. You could tell he wanted the 8-4, but he ate it sequentially right there.

05:31:21.800 --> 05:31:25.800
He was also so hungry. I mean, the 5-game series will take it out of you.

05:31:25.800 --> 05:31:27.800
Look at this, a slow-mo.

05:31:27.800 --> 05:31:29.800
Why are we doing this to him?

05:31:29.800 --> 05:31:31.800
It's crazy. For me it's still croissant number one.

05:31:31.800 --> 05:31:33.800
Page on pastry number two.

05:31:33.800 --> 05:31:35.800
I think for now. And then at Worlds maybe hot dog number three.

05:31:35.800 --> 05:31:36.800
Who knows?

05:31:36.800 --> 05:31:38.800
Depends how tasty it is to be honest.

05:31:38.800 --> 05:31:39.800
Maybe it's just electrical.

05:31:39.800 --> 05:31:41.800
What's our NA version going to be?

05:31:41.800 --> 05:31:43.800
It's a hot dog. It's pretty good at thankful.

05:31:43.800 --> 05:31:44.800
It's just like a giant hot dog.

05:31:44.800 --> 05:31:45.800
Extra big.

05:31:45.800 --> 05:31:46.800
Texas toast.

05:31:46.800 --> 05:31:47.800
I don't know.

05:31:47.800 --> 05:31:48.800
I don't know.

05:31:48.800 --> 05:31:50.800
We'll workshop it.

05:31:50.800 --> 05:31:51.800
We'll workshop it.

05:31:51.800 --> 05:31:54.800
Yeah, but HLLE, we can talk a bit about the graphic tomorrow.

05:31:54.800 --> 05:32:00.680
We do have an interview with DOKLA that's coming really really soon. So is there anything my NA reps want to say about kind of

05:32:01.040 --> 05:32:07.520
How it ended? I mean, I'm super proud. Yeah, super proud of what they showed, you know, like they were talking about the casters

05:32:07.520 --> 05:32:13.280
You know, they prove the people who are doubting them and telling them that they didn't deserve to be here that they were lucky that

05:32:13.280 --> 05:32:17.120
They had an easy route completely wrong. I mean up to one

05:32:17.720 --> 05:32:21.680
Finish MSI in third place with this modern MSI format

05:32:21.680 --> 05:32:25.240
It's harder than it has ever been to be top three or top four.

05:32:25.740 --> 05:32:32.680
They 3.0 G2 the LCS in total basically swept everyone that isn't an LPL or an LCK team.

05:32:32.680 --> 05:32:36.640
So very proud and happy of how the LCS in general stood up.

05:32:36.920 --> 05:32:40.920
And I really hope that we can take that energy back home and have a really awesome summer split.

05:32:40.920 --> 05:32:42.340
I feel the same about my region.

05:32:42.340 --> 05:32:45.080
I don't want to like hampering it in right, but I feel kind of the same.

05:32:45.080 --> 05:32:49.920
I feel for the West overall, if we look at both what Lyon was able to do, you know,

05:32:49.920 --> 05:32:56.720
and G2 until they met Lyon, like this is making me really hopeful for worlds for like the results that we could see.

05:32:56.720 --> 05:32:59.840
It seems like all the building blocks are there now, right?

05:32:59.840 --> 05:33:06.440
I mean, I think the big thing for Lyon, and I'm glad that Guma called it out because I thought their macro was on point.

05:33:06.440 --> 05:33:09.280
Their draft and preparation was really, really good.

05:33:09.280 --> 05:33:15.960
And the most surprising thing to me was that they were able to match HLE pound for pound in so many of these team fights.

05:33:15.960 --> 05:33:21.960
like their team fight setups were very thoughtful in a lot of cases and that is such a huge

05:33:21.960 --> 05:33:26.520
win I think for North America as a whole. It feels like there have been times where

05:33:26.520 --> 05:33:31.560
our teams have had better macro play or they've just been really good at like lane swapping

05:33:31.560 --> 05:33:36.680
for example right and helping dictate the pace of the meta that way but haven't been able to stand

05:33:36.680 --> 05:33:41.720
up in team fights. So if there's one thing that I think Lyon can take because like this last game

05:33:41.720 --> 05:33:47.160
was so, so close in terms of that bot lane teamfight essentially decided it.

05:33:47.160 --> 05:33:50.720
The fact that they were able to stand up to a team like HLE,

05:33:50.720 --> 05:33:53.680
who can push the pace as we saw from this last game,

05:33:53.680 --> 05:33:56.120
super, super well and teamfight super well,

05:33:56.120 --> 05:33:59.760
I think that is actually a really big takeaway for me

05:33:59.760 --> 05:34:04.200
as someone who has seen North American teams falter on that line previously.

05:34:04.200 --> 05:34:06.920
Yeah, I mean, we had so many years at the beginning

05:34:06.920 --> 05:34:09.200
where we didn't have the hands to ever compete.

05:34:09.200 --> 05:34:09.960
Yeah, true.

05:34:09.960 --> 05:34:15.800
It felt futile to even try, even try, and you don't take the best of five, you know, off of

05:34:15.800 --> 05:34:18.140
Elseget or LPL.

05:34:18.140 --> 05:34:23.360
But so many moments in this series, Lyon decided to fight them, they decided to test them on

05:34:23.360 --> 05:34:27.360
these moments, and they outplayed in some of them, and a lot of them.

05:34:27.360 --> 05:34:29.600
Not in the last one, not in the very critical one.

05:34:29.600 --> 05:34:30.600
Not all of them, a lot.

05:34:30.600 --> 05:34:33.200
And a lot of them, so props to HLE.

05:34:33.200 --> 05:34:34.200
Yes.

05:34:34.200 --> 05:34:37.640
And I think we're going to hear from Lyon themselves now because I believe Bora heads.

05:34:37.640 --> 05:34:39.640
Doklaat backstage in the Verizon post game.

05:34:43.140 --> 05:34:45.640
Doklaat, thank you so much for joining me after this series.

05:34:46.840 --> 05:34:50.640
It happened so fast in that last game, but how do you reflect on this series overall?

05:34:50.640 --> 05:34:52.140
What are we looking at here?

05:34:54.140 --> 05:34:56.640
Well, it was a good series. We put together a good fight.

05:34:57.440 --> 05:35:02.140
I think Game 4 is kind of where my mind immediately goes to since we were in a winning position.

05:35:02.140 --> 05:35:07.480
And I had an advantageous matchup and I wasn't diligent enough in terms of thinking about

05:35:07.480 --> 05:35:13.320
my level one and I wasn't able to gain a massive advantage in a matchup I thought I could.

05:35:13.320 --> 05:35:18.280
So I just kind of feel bad about game four because I was in a position to carry that

05:35:18.280 --> 05:35:19.280
game.

05:35:19.280 --> 05:35:22.800
It makes sense that you're going to be self critical about your own performance but honestly

05:35:22.800 --> 05:35:28.560
massive series from you guys against HLE today and I want to talk about the improvements

05:35:28.560 --> 05:35:30.860
from Lyon throughout the entirety of the tournament.

05:35:30.860 --> 05:35:32.660
How you guys started against Furia

05:35:32.660 --> 05:35:36.300
into challenging the first seed of the LCK here today?

05:35:36.300 --> 05:35:37.580
How do you reflect on everything that you've

05:35:37.580 --> 05:35:38.820
been able to achieve with the team

05:35:38.820 --> 05:35:41.260
and how far you've come, even personally?

05:35:41.260 --> 05:35:44.100
Yeah, I mean, I think this is for sure the most competitive

05:35:44.100 --> 05:35:45.100
and it's looked in a while.

05:35:45.100 --> 05:35:46.500
So I'm happy about that.

05:35:46.500 --> 05:35:48.740
But you know, it just sucks we came up short,

05:35:48.740 --> 05:35:50.940
but still, you know, lots to take home with it.

05:35:50.940 --> 05:35:52.660
And still, we can improve on this.

05:35:52.660 --> 05:35:56.660
And you know, it's not all too bad, you know?

05:35:56.660 --> 05:36:00.100
push like one of the best teams in the world to game five, so we can be part of that.

05:36:00.100 --> 05:36:03.420
It's the best hopes that we had for NA in ages and I even want to say the West,

05:36:03.420 --> 05:36:06.300
like I can't even be mad at you guys for like the joy that you put on today.

05:36:06.300 --> 05:36:06.500
Yeah.

05:36:06.500 --> 05:36:07.860
And what happens against you two?

05:36:07.860 --> 05:36:12.500
Defeating three first seed, almost defeating the fourth one here.

05:36:12.500 --> 05:36:15.340
I remember the interview we had at the end of first dance

05:36:15.340 --> 05:36:19.300
and how hard it was for you and how far you guys have come as a team.

05:36:19.300 --> 05:36:21.500
You said that you're going to take a lot of learnings looking back to NA.

05:36:21.500 --> 05:36:25.260
Can you tell me more about this and how much you guys have been progressing as a team?

05:36:25.260 --> 05:36:35.260
I mean, yeah, definitely first send helps us, you know, get a taste of international competition and kind of what we need to do to, you know, compete in moments like this.

05:36:35.260 --> 05:36:46.260
Fortunately, we came up short, but I mean, we're going to learn from this as well and hopefully, you know, we make it to Worlds and we can improve more and then overcome this game five hurdle.

05:36:46.260 --> 05:36:47.260
So, yeah.

05:36:47.260 --> 05:36:49.260
It's going to be a pretty back schedule for you guys, actually.

05:36:49.260 --> 05:36:52.260
Yeah, actually, we don't really have much of a break, but I don't mind that.

05:36:52.260 --> 05:36:55.700
Honestly, being busy is better than not being busy in my team, so...

05:36:55.700 --> 05:36:56.580
You said you're winning!

05:36:56.580 --> 05:37:02.180
So, yeah, and then you guys are going for a tournament, so I'm really, really excited for the rest of the year for Lyon

05:37:02.180 --> 05:37:04.020
and seeing you guys on the rift as well.

05:37:04.020 --> 05:37:05.940
Is there anything that you want to tell the Western fans?

05:37:06.660 --> 05:37:10.100
As a farewell here, so proud of you and what do you think about it?

05:37:10.100 --> 05:37:15.940
We literally gave you hope and took it away at the very last possible moment, so yeah, we apologize about that.

05:37:17.380 --> 05:37:20.900
I'm just a bit disappointed in myself about the game four performance.

05:37:20.900 --> 05:37:26.660
I mean, it's hard, you know, this is an extremely talented player, and I still need to level

05:37:26.660 --> 05:37:30.500
up a bit more to kind of pick out those advantages where I should be.

05:37:30.500 --> 05:37:35.860
But I'm happy with how I played, you know, there's always more to improve on, but I thought

05:37:35.860 --> 05:37:36.860
we'd put my good fight in.

05:37:36.860 --> 05:37:41.340
Just shout out to my teammates, they played extremely well, and the fact that we had a

05:37:41.340 --> 05:37:43.820
chance in this area is just, just to show how good they are.

05:37:43.820 --> 05:37:47.420
So, yeah, just everyone involved, coaching staff, manager, everyone.

05:37:47.420 --> 05:37:49.420
So just shout out to everyone.

05:37:49.420 --> 05:37:56.420
Thank you so much for the banger games for the memories and everything and see you for the next vlogs.

05:37:56.420 --> 05:37:57.420
Yeah.

05:37:59.420 --> 05:38:05.420
Thank you, Dokla, and thank you, Lion, for making us dream, honestly, something that we don't get to do often.

05:38:05.420 --> 05:38:10.420
Also, cool that everybody was cheering for your answers there in the backstage interview.

05:38:10.420 --> 05:38:13.420
Maybe the other interview was going to say something. I don't know.

05:38:13.420 --> 05:38:19.740
I was cheering, but it's just all I love him as a personality in the LCS big dogs

05:38:19.740 --> 05:38:25.740
Like it's incredible and also just to root he's on because I know he's thinking about that game for I

05:38:26.220 --> 05:38:30.060
Think we understand that right, but if you look at the improvement that he's made

05:38:30.760 --> 05:38:33.820
Overall Emily it's been just crazy to see yeah

05:38:33.820 --> 05:38:40.260
I think in the moment. He's obviously gonna be looking back and being like oh if I don't leave, but I mean he keeps proving

05:38:40.260 --> 05:38:46.860
time and time again, specifically to North American organizations, by the way, that he

05:38:46.860 --> 05:38:52.740
deserves a spot. And not only deserves a spot, but I'd say more often than not, he performs

05:38:52.740 --> 05:38:57.620
really well under pressure internationally. Like I remember even when 100 thieves were

05:38:57.620 --> 05:39:04.140
flamendoring a bit, he overall had some really strong individual performances in those games.

05:39:04.140 --> 05:39:09.660
So I think, stop sleeping on Docla. I know he's disappointed now, but I think he actually

05:39:09.660 --> 05:39:16.060
had a really a performance he can be super proud of. Yeah. And this line team is very new. Just put

05:39:16.060 --> 05:39:21.260
together this year, you know, cobbling together these pieces and trying to work out how they're

05:39:21.260 --> 05:39:26.540
even going to operate in these games. Yep. They've had very quick improvements as a team. So excited

05:39:26.540 --> 05:39:32.060
to see, you know, it continue to go up and to the right for this team. And if they can continue to

05:39:32.060 --> 05:39:37.580
improve. Absolutely. So looking forward to their development time. I'm really sad we're not gonna

05:39:37.580 --> 05:39:41.420
to see it tomorrow. I'm not gonna lie. I would have loved to see that Best of Fire, but it

05:39:41.420 --> 05:39:43.460
will be HLE that goes up against VHT.

05:39:43.460 --> 05:39:45.620
The fans will be a lot louder for HLE.

05:39:45.620 --> 05:39:52.980
Probably, probably, who knows. But before the grand final tomorrow, we also have League

05:39:52.980 --> 05:39:58.420
Classic. We have a show match tomorrow that you can tune in for. And yeah, see all these

05:39:58.420 --> 05:40:01.620
legends of the Rift take on each other once again, Jot.

05:40:01.620 --> 05:40:07.140
What a throwback. I mean, some of these guys were playing in 2010. Some of them are still

05:40:07.140 --> 05:40:13.700
Challenger I don't know how balanced it's end gonna be lane by lane, but I can't wait to just see old league with the old players

05:40:13.700 --> 05:40:19.940
It's gonna be such a nostalgia trip. Yeah, I'm kind of eyeing team Baron as my personal favorite

05:40:19.940 --> 05:40:24.100
Maybe it's the double lift way shout bias. So up until they lose the game

05:40:27.940 --> 05:40:31.500
We're gonna have to make a list of references that people people are not

05:40:37.140 --> 05:40:46.140
I can't wait. Finally. I wonder how many people say that scar reference without knowing he said it. True a lot. Probably talking about his own team.

05:40:46.140 --> 05:40:55.140
So good. So many memories and we'll share them all with you tomorrow, meaning we will be starting the festivities a little bit earlier.

05:40:55.140 --> 05:40:58.500
a little bit earlier, 8 AM CEST and 11 PM PST

05:40:58.500 --> 05:40:59.920
as we're gonna travel back in time

05:40:59.920 --> 05:41:01.700
for our league classic show match.

05:41:01.700 --> 05:41:03.500
And that is all before, of course,

05:41:03.500 --> 05:41:08.500
the grand final of MSI 2026 BLG versus Hanwha Life Esports.

05:41:08.800 --> 05:41:11.060
Thank you so much for sharing the ups and the downs

05:41:11.060 --> 05:41:12.860
and all the emotions with us today.

05:41:12.860 --> 05:41:14.420
And we'll see you right back here tomorrow

05:41:14.420 --> 05:41:16.340
for some nostalgia and then hopefully

05:41:16.340 --> 05:41:18.660
five banger games, good night.

05:41:18.660 --> 05:41:30.260
Welcome to the penultimate day of competition here at MSI Korea's number one seed HLE takes

05:41:30.260 --> 05:41:33.260
on North America's number one seed Lyon.

05:41:33.260 --> 05:41:36.260
Here comes HLE.

05:41:36.260 --> 05:41:41.580
Here off to Lyon finds another beautiful ball inspired about to die the Stan United tries

05:41:41.580 --> 05:41:46.580
to keep him alive but no delight for the execution say it's a rise.

05:41:46.580 --> 05:41:54.580
And Lyon will be buried in the enemy jungle, three of them dead as Zayn and Dokla have to try to escape.

05:41:54.580 --> 05:42:02.580
Gumiuchi, Delayon and Zeka chasing after Zayn, no matter how good his stylus is, there's no way out.

05:42:02.580 --> 05:42:10.580
Dokla, trust that he do turns as the only man left standing on Lyon, and HLE gets five from nothing.

05:42:10.580 --> 05:42:15.580
H-L-E will rise to the occasion.

05:42:15.580 --> 05:42:18.580
They will chase down the last kill of the fight.

05:42:18.580 --> 05:42:21.580
Steyers will not even fall.

05:42:21.580 --> 05:42:24.580
North America's streams are dashed to Dijon.

05:42:24.580 --> 05:42:26.580
Lyon are vanquished.

05:42:26.580 --> 05:42:28.580
Angelia are victorious.

05:42:28.580 --> 05:42:31.580
And they earn their place in the finals.
