Imagine taking each rank a pt value and a modifier for more impactful roles. Then taking those numbers to mathematically determine who is the best team based off the positions they have per role
i get that zeka has been pronounced like that in the lpl, but all of lck casters - korean/english are calling him differently and also he and his teammates are calling him jeka.
I think it’s hard to rank some of g2 as high as they were given the environment they compete in, but they do have a ceiling that could prove it correct. Hope we get to see it happen, but their summer was pretty uninspiring.
Totally agree think G2 players were rated too highly with how they looked against other European teams which is pretty weak looking as a region overall
@@stealthrusherdo you know why tho right?? Bcs g2 has one of the best macros in the world thats why they get the high ranking despite choking all early games but winning mid-late games

Bro were saying caps is slumping and hes still top 4 mids at worlds.. istg in 10 years time we'll finally fully grasp how fucking good Caps was in the west
I think what you failed to take into account when you say things like "Impact deals with 1v2 better than Doran" is that the competition in LCS is dog shit and you know that. Impact would look far worse than Doran if he played in the LCK.
@ayakoa2096 and yet impact remained competftive on the worlds level ever dince. Logic would dictate that impact remained in Korea all this time he likely would have dorans Job lmao
@@xardas149 ??? Tell me one thing impact accomplished outside of NA that isnt season 3 worlds. Yeah if he would have been in LCK over the years but he didnt.
i think Tomo is pretty underrated tbh. he had an immediate impact on 100T and they played considerably better with him than with Meech. his laning is definitely a bit subpar but his teamfighting was on par with Massu and Yeon imho, and he also improved dramatically over the course of the second half of summer + playoffs. i know he was middling on DIG but he already looked way better on 100T, i could see him being the next APA and showing up big next year. i would def have him above supa, maybe even noah
Peyz at fourth for playing one bad series against HLE is insane. Apart from the last series, peyz was better than viper for the whole split. He was consistent and showed up when he needed to.
@@orlandochun1591 it was not out of the debate. Peyz and Viper were constantly being compared the whole season. Difference is Viper fell off hard and Aiming was really strong at the end of the season. Peyz was always there, including geng in multiple games where his team mates ran it down. Point is, the discussion was always there. It was never clear cut. Peyz not falling off at any point in the season is easily a reason to rate him high compared to any other korean adc.
The problem with rating Humanoid is that he could literally be the worst mid in the tournament or top 4/5 depending on his motivation to actually try. He'll never just be in the middle tho xD
If he puts lehends top 15 who you want him to move down on geng. Geng isnt way better than everyone else so they cant just have 5 top 20 players and not clearly be the best team
Viper played worse than peyz for the entire year till he gapped him in finals, i hink power rankings should be more about the whole year not just the most recent BO5
Also he didn't really gap him in lane. Peyz just had terrible teamfighting to a level we haven't ever seen from him. It's not like Viper did something special to win.
While I obviously don't agree with all of your opinions (having also watched every major region regularly, except for LCS), I love the fact that you go in-depth about many of the more controversial choices and, knowing how much flack content creators usually catch for these kinds of lists, I just gotta say thank you for putting your take out there, it's good content!
I will say, on top of the thing that mid lane might attract better players more, these are of course teams that have already been filtered. So I think there are so many mid laners at the top because mid laners are just more impactfull, so a team with a good mid and a meh adc will do better than a team wih a good adc and a meh mid.
Every year we forget, we never learn, T1 can have the 5 worst players, but in worlds they somehow become top 1-2 in every role.... what is this plot armor
Player rankings added up per team would be: Blg 36 Geng 50 Hle 66 Tes 107 T1 140 Weibo 158 G2 161 Lng 198 Tl 214 Dplus 216 Flyquest 237 Fnc 271 100t 306 Mad 321 This would assume that a gap between each rank is the same, when in reality its obviously not
The only ranking i really disagree with is Scout being so low, he deserves to be above Xiaohu and maybe even Creme, he was by far the best player on LNG and they were the 2nd best team regular season and were effectively neck in neck with Weibo in the post season, and Dom, with the exception od Zika/Breathe, has every single player rated significantly higher than LNG's
As much as I hate Zeka he had an insane playoffs and seems to feel good in this meta, he's the first player in a long time that I watched simply lane mid and think "shit man reminds me of Faker" because he literally just solo outplays everyone
I'm really surprised that meiko wasn't rated higher. He's been arguably the best support in the world this year. Also, Faker's lane phases have been bad, but showmaker's have also been hella sus. In playoffs showmaker averaged sub 9 cspm, Faker at least managed 9.1.
Haven't you heard it? He stated supports will be generally listed lower, since support players tend to be the worst players out of all players. If you were to put support player vs any role player in mechanical fight, who would win? Being the best support player out of all support players does not equate to being the best player in every single aspect of the game. And the latter is the whole purpose of this ranking.
IwillTencent is the biggest fraud to ever exist in the league scene T1 went from being not even a contender at worlds (in his delusional mind) but when they started stomping teams left and right he completely grifted to: Oner being the jngl goat Zeus being the best alongside bin Faker being the clutch player Keria being the best supp at worlds As for guma he didnt mention him much Stop the grift iwillTencent and you'll stop getting hate
Dom has to be a Peanut Hater. No way you would rate Inspired over him after how he played in the LCK Summer gauntlet. He really destroyed Oner in both games.
You could see Dom's biasedness to try to move Peanut downwards lol. But he couldn't bring himself to do that with how good Peanut did in the playoffs. He basically admitted Peanut was better and he was just biased to put Canyon #1 as well.
“I don’t think GenG losing finals means anything” proceeds to disrespect Peyz after 1 bad series when he actually put him above viper for mvp on power spike.
HLE winning meant something bro. Just because GenG players dont get lowered by their loss, doesnt mean that HLE players dont get highered by their win.
@@riseagainstthemachine6079 This. GENG doesn't suddenly becomes a bad team over a single loss against a very strong team in game 5 finals, but it does mean that HLE can actually pull it off. People are also forgetting that HLE did almost beat GENG in Spring as well, when Chovy did the 1v9 thing with Azir. HLE also matched GENG well in the early game and you could see that if they could sort their mid-late game decisions out, they could very well match GENG. This is coming from the biggest GENG fan by the way. GENG is the best team in the world, despite the loss, but by no means unbeatable and a single day that they let their guard down, it will be bye-bye Worlds.
@@riseagainstthemachine6079 yes. Let’s go with your argument. If GenG player doesnt get lowered how does he who was acknowledged the best adc in LCK prior to the finals suddenly drop to 19th on the list. Not even in top 10.
I have noticed for some reason dom doesnt like GALA at all anymore as a player/person, he been shittalking him perma and never say he is good anymore 😅 while he was the best LPL adc in summer regular split and he is playing with a much worse support than all other adcs
@@Jxd1219d Gala just had a worse year. He was uncharacteristically getting caught out and having bad games. "he been shittalking him perma and never say he is good anymore"... okay, do you want to maybe provide some evidence of this? He definitely said nothing like that...
Weird ranking, especially for dk, idk how to rank that low players that played that well, and like, they finally beat t1 this year when Moham played, he did good, and is rated 69/70 ? Nah bro And I won’t talk about the whole general ranking or I will never stop
I agree on the side of aiming and kingen being too low. Also lucid slightly but def not moham or Showmaker. Moham has limited games so its hard tk rate him higher cause him off rell also just looks bad. And shoemaker has just been had this entire split. If anything he might be too high.
@@orlandochun1591moham was 2k elo in LCK SoloQ as a fucking support. Some players on this list wouldn't make it to grandmaster lol. Mechanically you cant rate him low and he was solid for DK. He literally replaced on of the long-term top supports in Korea.
@@hideakianno8651 If you're looking at MSI, none of these players should be ranked where they are now. How about watch Summer and Season Finals LEC when he's getting gapped by Mrwyn and Oscar. His competition is absolute garbage compared to World class players and he still loses lane a lot. Impact by far the best Western toplaner going into Worlds this year. I'd put BrokenBlade below Bwipo, with Oscar and Mrwyn.
@@nufasniyamathulla6479 yes he had bad series, so do all g2 players, but the thing is that his game lvl in avg stays the same, the thing with farming worse than the oponent laner, is that he gets to play games where he got countrpicked. Same Oscarinin make 369 go -30 in poppy Ksante matchup. Thing is in sprin Bb plays more strong lanes, and in summer he get weak-sided.
@@nufasniyamathulla6479 sry not poppy vs Ksante, Camille vs Ksante, but that doesn't change anything, if you watch pro leagues you can see that Ksante beats Camille in lane phase(but camille outscales him)
Cause Humanoid has proven that at worlds he can pop off and go head to head with the best mid laners. Quid is a rookie. Its kinda obvious to me that Humanoid is better, Dom just hates Fnatic
Imagine getting stomped vs every LCK mid laner + losing last years worlds + losing MSI + losing EWC, and you still make this years rank 2 on IWD's list. Insane analytical prowess.
If you're talking about knight, he only got gapped by Chovy, who is the #1 and faker during swiss stage when T1 won worlds. He won lpl spring 23, won msi 23, won lpl summer 23, top 4 worlds 23, won spring 24, top 2 msi 24, top 2 ewc 24, won summer 24. What are u smoking ?

Imagine taking each rank a pt value and a modifier for more impactful roles. Then taking those numbers to mathematically determine who is the best team based off the positions they have per role
i get that zeka has been pronounced like that in the lpl, but all of lck casters - korean/english are calling him differently and also he and his teammates are calling him jeka.
Koreans just pronounce Z with J. I remember Berserker saying "Jeri" in his C9 farewell video
@@javi4591 i know, but the point is that they are not calling him jika, they call him jeka
I think it’s hard to rank some of g2 as high as they were given the environment they compete in, but they do have a ceiling that could prove it correct. Hope we get to see it happen, but their summer was pretty uninspiring.
Totally agree think G2 players were rated too highly with how they looked against other European teams which is pretty weak looking as a region overall
@@stealthrusherdo you know why tho right?? Bcs g2 has one of the best macros in the world thats why they get the high ranking despite choking all early games but winning mid-late games

LETS FUCKING GO DOM
I might be going insane but I think that dom is picking up some weird European English second language turns of phrase from spending all his time hanging with euros.
Example?
Big one is “something like this”
@@MusiCVideosRus1 what's the right phrasing in this case?
@@MusiCVideosRus1 but its not even a turn of phrase, he is literally saying the list would look something like this
Its true but i think Euro and The Sack lingo is funny
Bro were saying caps is slumping and hes still top 4 mids at worlds.. istg in 10 years time we'll finally fully grasp how fucking good Caps was in the west
Tbf it's way easier to look good in EU/NA than LPL/LCK
I think what you failed to take into account when you say things like "Impact deals with 1v2 better than Doran" is that the competition in LCS is dog shit and you know that. Impact would look far worse than Doran if he played in the LCK.
impact won lck and worlds lol
In season 3 bro, the average diamond Player from today would clear season3 worlds
@ayakoa2096 and yet impact remained competftive on the worlds level ever dince. Logic would dictate that impact remained in Korea all this time he likely would have dorans Job lmao
I feel the same way about caps and inspired, bottom tier comp and they are top 25 somehow
@@xardas149 ??? Tell me one thing impact accomplished outside of NA that isnt season 3 worlds. Yeah if he would have been in LCK over the years but he didnt.
I just come here for you to change your ranking for T1😂
i think Tomo is pretty underrated tbh. he had an immediate impact on 100T and they played considerably better with him than with Meech. his laning is definitely a bit subpar but his teamfighting was on par with Massu and Yeon imho, and he also improved dramatically over the course of the second half of summer + playoffs. i know he was middling on DIG but he already looked way better on 100T, i could see him being the next APA and showing up big next year. i would def have him above supa, maybe even noah
BRO THE THUMBNAIL SWAP WAS WILD
"Is BB not just better than Doran bro!?" I lost my shit at the realisation and the delivery.
The only source bro has is the voices in his head. Holyyy this list is cheeks
What's the criteria for the raiting? Raw skill? Team impact? Where does clutch come in? Faker at 42 is crazy
Peyz at fourth for playing one bad series against HLE is insane. Apart from the last series, peyz was better than viper for the whole split. He was consistent and showed up when he needed to.
I agree but it was a pretty bad series...I could see how it's enough to make a non fan lose faith.
You lose a lot of faith when a player literally solo loses a series
He was definitely not better throughout the entire split. Besides the last few weeks of regular split, viper was undeniably the best adc.
@@orlandochun1591 it was not out of the debate. Peyz and Viper were constantly being compared the whole season. Difference is Viper fell off hard and Aiming was really strong at the end of the season. Peyz was always there, including geng in multiple games where his team mates ran it down. Point is, the discussion was always there. It was never clear cut.
Peyz not falling off at any point in the season is easily a reason to rate him high compared to any other korean adc.
@@SwayNoir Peyz placement was fine, but Aiming was criminal. Aiming solo carried dumpster fire DKA to worlds, he deserves top 15 or more, easily.
We need a post worlds ranking to see the difference
“Viper is so much better than Zeka” - people who don’t watch LCK
can't believe Dom did my boy Scout this dirty in the thumbnail 😂😂😂, someone lock this man up
had to come back to this god awful list
The gap between top 3-4 in each role and the rest is really brutal isn't it.
Aiming Ziggs was seriously good against GenG
I think his MF game was seriously underrated as well. It was more than good it felt like a classic Aiming 1v9 where he was more than an ult bot
Jokes aside, Aiming is insane and should be top 15 easily. Dom is clearly biased against him.
He us better than tarzan but i think light is slightly better
The problem with rating Humanoid is that he could literally be the worst mid in the tournament or top 4/5 depending on his motivation to actually try. He'll never just be in the middle tho xD
not having Lehends top 15 just sums up you didnt watch LCK at all, the way he and Canyon play the early game and setup dives/visions .
If he puts lehends top 15 who you want him to move down on geng. Geng isnt way better than everyone else so they cant just have 5 top 20 players and not clearly be the best team
@@Tyysstheem...yes until now they are the best team. It's not really close.
@@samwisehuluberlu2210 Then why did they lose to HLE?
@@FitzgeraldStanburyWeissV n
Because it's happening. It was still 3-2 close series. And because HLE is one of 3 best teams in the world maybe.
Lehends is not only mechanically better than Delight, he shotcalling is way superior and makes GenG the team it is
The fact that eyla is the only person on the overall list for half the video is hilarious
Viper played worse than peyz for the entire year till he gapped him in finals, i hink power rankings should be more about the whole year not just the most recent BO5
Also he didn't really gap him in lane. Peyz just had terrible teamfighting to a level we haven't ever seen from him. It's not like Viper did something special to win.
While I obviously don't agree with all of your opinions (having also watched every major region regularly, except for LCS), I love the fact that you go in-depth about many of the more controversial choices and, knowing how much flack content creators usually catch for these kinds of lists, I just gotta say thank you for putting your take out there, it's good content!
Awful list dom, unsubscribe.
I will say, on top of the thing that mid lane might attract better players more, these are of course teams that have already been filtered. So I think there are so many mid laners at the top because mid laners are just more impactfull, so a team with a good mid and a meh adc will do better than a team wih a good adc and a meh mid.
this is so weird because inspired stomping lcs got him a higher ranking than oner and wei wei?
T1 were not stomping LCK
Oner barely made worlds . Lck 4th seed
Barely making worlds in lck is harder than winning lcs tbh
@@idontreallycaretbh and LCK 4th seed will shitstomp LCS
inspired made basically no errors in all the games he played, what more can he do?
Every year we forget, we never learn, T1 can have the 5 worst players, but in worlds they somehow become top 1-2 in every role.... what is this plot armor
This might be the worst tierlist by far this year
You do one then. Clown.
Lol the top 45 is very good to me the rest is debatable
Incoming Bwipo response message that hes not in top 3
How can u rate lehend that low knowing he is the driving factor behind gengs macro??
😂
Cause he's a feeder
Player rankings added up per team would be:
Blg 36
Geng 50
Hle 66
Tes 107
T1 140
Weibo 158
G2 161
Lng 198
Tl 214
Dplus 216
Flyquest 237
Fnc 271
100t 306
Mad 321
This would assume that a gap between each rank is the same, when in reality its obviously not
Well, this one didn't age well
The only ranking i really disagree with is Scout being so low, he deserves to be above Xiaohu and maybe even Creme, he was by far the best player on LNG and they were the 2nd best team regular season and were effectively neck in neck with Weibo in the post season, and Dom, with the exception od Zika/Breathe, has every single player rated significantly higher than LNG's
poor Eyla lmao
"I put him at 70 what more do you want bro" 🤣
@@motnurky7055🤣
Why he coud have been even lower
My man is getting bullied :D he was better in summer tho
As much as I hate Zeka he had an insane playoffs and seems to feel good in this meta, he's the first player in a long time that I watched simply lane mid and think "shit man reminds me of Faker" because he literally just solo outplays everyone
rookie chovy was amazing to see pandemic chovy its like waiting for the choke
Why the f do you hate Zeka? Just another League player who was literally no impact on your life
Dom hates on DK way too much man some of these ratings are criminal
APA will send his regards after being named MVP of world finals when NA gets their first worlds trophy
In your dreams
I'm really surprised that meiko wasn't rated higher. He's been arguably the best support in the world this year. Also, Faker's lane phases have been bad, but showmaker's have also been hella sus. In playoffs showmaker averaged sub 9 cspm, Faker at least managed 9.1.
Putting all ressources into aiming is usually the whole identity of DK.
@@riseagainstthemachine6079true
Haven't you heard it? He stated supports will be generally listed lower, since support players tend to be the worst players out of all players. If you were to put support player vs any role player in mechanical fight, who would win?
Being the best support player out of all support players does not equate to being the best player in every single aspect of the game. And the latter is the whole purpose of this ranking.
@@NarantsatsraltOrgil-y2o
Top 4 supports got pretty high imo
Id definitely rate Meiko higher than ON.
IwillTencent is the biggest fraud to ever exist in the league scene
T1 went from being not even a contender at worlds (in his delusional mind) but when they started stomping teams left and right he completely grifted to:
Oner being the jngl goat
Zeus being the best alongside bin
Faker being the clutch player
Keria being the best supp at worlds
As for guma he didnt mention him much
Stop the grift iwillTencent and you'll stop getting hate
Dom has to be a Peanut Hater. No way you would rate Inspired over him after how he played in the LCK Summer gauntlet. He really destroyed Oner in both games.
He didnt put Inspired above tho?
He ended up with Peanut at number 2 after Canyon in terms of jg tho?
@@tehAmbi he mentioned at a point
@@popamihnea6695 he still didnt put him at the end on his end thought
You could see Dom's biasedness to try to move Peanut downwards lol. But he couldn't bring himself to do that with how good Peanut did in the playoffs. He basically admitted Peanut was better and he was just biased to put Canyon #1 as well.
“I don’t think GenG losing finals means anything” proceeds to disrespect Peyz after 1 bad series when he actually put him above viper for mvp on power spike.
HLE winning meant something bro.
Just because GenG players dont get lowered by their loss, doesnt mean that HLE players dont get highered by their win.
you can easily argue peyz over players like meiko
@@riseagainstthemachine6079 This. GENG doesn't suddenly becomes a bad team over a single loss against a very strong team in game 5 finals, but it does mean that HLE can actually pull it off. People are also forgetting that HLE did almost beat GENG in Spring as well, when Chovy did the 1v9 thing with Azir. HLE also matched GENG well in the early game and you could see that if they could sort their mid-late game decisions out, they could very well match GENG. This is coming from the biggest GENG fan by the way. GENG is the best team in the world, despite the loss, but by no means unbeatable and a single day that they let their guard down, it will be bye-bye Worlds.
Thats just how the west view viper bro, viper makes one good play and then hes the best, peyz one mistake hes overrated
@@riseagainstthemachine6079 yes. Let’s go with your argument. If GenG player doesnt get lowered how does he who was acknowledged the best adc in LCK prior to the finals suddenly drop to 19th on the list. Not even in top 10.
So Hans Sama, Impact, Inspired and BB ahead of Razork, YEP
I have noticed for some reason dom doesnt like GALA at all anymore as a player/person, he been shittalking him perma and never say he is good anymore 😅 while he was the best LPL adc in summer regular split and he is playing with a much worse support than all other adcs
In this meta particulary Gala isnt that good.

Weird ranking, especially for dk, idk how to rank that low players that played that well, and like, they finally beat t1 this year when Moham played, he did good, and is rated 69/70 ? Nah bro
And I won’t talk about the whole general ranking or I will never stop
I agree on the side of aiming and kingen being too low. Also lucid slightly but def not moham or Showmaker. Moham has limited games so its hard tk rate him higher cause him off rell also just looks bad. And shoemaker has just been had this entire split. If anything he might be too high.
@@orlandochun1591 nah bro, 69/70 ??? Almost the worst player of worlds, It can’t be, and showmaker did good
@@orlandochun1591moham was 2k elo in LCK SoloQ as a fucking support. Some players on this list wouldn't make it to grandmaster lol. Mechanically you cant rate him low and he was solid for DK. He literally replaced on of the long-term top supports in Korea.
@@robertmusil1107 magifelix made top 10 in korean soloq multiple times. Where is he now lil bro?

Quad over APA is pure recency bias. You didn't take into account regular season, MSI or EWC. Crazy ranking decision tbh
APA is on a better team. Purely individual Quad is better and I don't see how this is even questionable lmao
He said why
Since this ranking is for worlds we *should* have recency bias. If players are worse in playoffs then they should be rated lower
Dom is an absolute monkey for putting Faker at the 42nd spot
I agree with most but there is no way BrokenBlade is a top 6 toplaner at Worlds.
Go rewatch last MSI, he had only 1 bad series, and it's 2nd series against t1.
@@hideakianno8651 If you're looking at MSI, none of these players should be ranked where they are now. How about watch Summer and Season Finals LEC when he's getting gapped by Mrwyn and Oscar. His competition is absolute garbage compared to World class players and he still loses lane a lot. Impact by far the best Western toplaner going into Worlds this year. I'd put BrokenBlade below Bwipo, with Oscar and Mrwyn.
@@nufasniyamathulla6479 yes he had bad series, so do all g2 players, but the thing is that his game lvl in avg stays the same, the thing with farming worse than the oponent laner, is that he gets to play games where he got countrpicked. Same Oscarinin make 369 go -30 in poppy Ksante matchup. Thing is in sprin Bb plays more strong lanes, and in summer he get weak-sided.
@@nufasniyamathulla6479 sry not poppy vs Ksante, Camille vs Ksante, but that doesn't change anything, if you watch pro leagues you can see that Ksante beats Camille in lane phase(but camille outscales him)

Chovy is not willing to branch out? He basically played every ADC during that meta. He stuck to Corki because it was op af
Imagine getting stomped vs every LCK mid laner + losing last years worlds + losing MSI + losing EWC, and you still make this years rank 2 on IWD's list.
Insane analytical prowess.
Imagine being number 1 for the past few years and losing in embarassing fasion, only winning MSI this year.
If you're talking about knight, he only got gapped by Chovy, who is the #1 and faker during swiss stage when T1 won worlds. He won lpl spring 23, won msi 23, won lpl summer 23, top 4 worlds 23, won spring 24, top 2 msi 24, top 2 ewc 24, won summer 24. What are u smoking ?
