It's really hilarious how Dom coincidentally naming the year were T1 didn't win that much as the most enjoyable for him will probably trigger so many T1 fans lol
I agree with him lol, it’s better to watch different team in the top 4 than constantly having the same team over many seasons. It’s repetitive and not entertaining to watch. Just imagine, if bro is in the top 4… like that would be insane and fun no?
@@TorannnAAAH, yes! The different teams in the top: GenG. Just say you don't want T1 to win, it's easier to admit the truth and it's fine. I don't care what teams win as long as the quality of the games is good. That's why this was a horrible year, especially summer with all the smolder ziggs bs.
Honestly HLE winning the split over Gen G make LCK more interesting, since for a while LCK was looking like Gen G vs the rest just like G2 in LEC. But near the end of the last split more teams starting to challenge them and make them sweat a bit.
They literally went to 5 games ever series in spring playoff. They were more challenged in spring playoff than summer if you look at the overall picture. If Chovy was in as good of form as spring in summer, he probably would have 1v9 them past hle again in summer.
may not understand it fully, but kinda seems like this format favors making good teams better over making worse teams better. Like being in the rise group sounds like a waste of time/being an LEC team
What would a format favoring "making worse teams better" look like? I get what you mean about the rise group but I cant think of any format with the goal of making worse team better. But I am very curious about your thoughts friend? :)
@@themlgbrosftw4960 idk im pretty high and watched the lck and lec format changes back to back lol ig i am thinking that if you are a "good" team in rising and you round robin bad teams right before worlds qual, you might get fucked.
@@themlgbrosftw4960 The US sports system is the only example: gift the worst teams the most talented young players and make it impossible to keep together a great team due to a salary cap.
@@Swiftskice I think a top team in Rise group has to scrim with all teams in Legend group all summer long while preping round 3-5 and Play-ins to minimize the damage of being bottom half in spring or they would not get far in play-offs. Also that team has to win 2 or 3 more BO5 just to get to Play-offs in pretty tiring. It is kinda fucked for them.
More lck when the top 4 teams are competitive?? Sign me the fuck up!! Edit: taking away regional gauntlet from the best region seems dumb a f... is it the same for lpl? Wbg made worlds thru gauntlet last year😅
To me this sounds like they want to limit the amount of lopsided RR games with the legends/rise groups so you have more even series. But it will suck if some strong team bricks up first split playoffs and then never plays the hyped up teams for half a year.
No, LCK messed up the graphic, it’s still the same playoff format as last year. The losers bracket winner(2nd place) plays against the Winner bracket winner(1st place) to determine the winner of LCK Cup and qualify to the international tournament. Ps: It’s only the Msi Qualifier that doesn’t have 1st place vs 2nd place. It’s treated like how the regional qualifiers worlds 3rd/4th seeds were formatted.
Sounds incredibly complicated and pointless. I always loved basic football format: home-away season and then best teams battle in the Champions League, while lower ones battle in the Europe League.
Too much for your monkey brain i guess. Also football is ingrained in Europe and South America in a way the format doesnt even matter, and people are watching, this new lck format could be spicier
Dude only T1 makes money in LCK All teams have their main sponsors, it's not for the sponsors to make money in their LCK teams but for the scale and for Brand recognition to make money outside the League. Same in LPL, teams don't make money most of the teams are owned by Rich individuals who just want a team and love the league. Teams get bounced around different owners. So it doesn't really affect bad teams in LCK.
Sadly there's no point in them having more games. If those teams are having a bad season, more games will not fix it and the audience for BRO x NS will not be worth the time and money
do they have less games tho? i didnt stop to count, but unless ur in the last 2 positions, they usually have to go through longer paths in play ins stages, which could potentially end up in more games for them than this season? not sure, again, im too lazy to count
Meh. Adc mid meta wasnt it. Both on pro and soloque Laneswapping was less agregious now but earlier this year. It was like we were back to boring S4 laneswap meta.
@@teraformerr LCS had records carry across seasons in 2021 but there was still technically 2 champions across the splits compared to only being one so that's kinda gonna be a bit of what the LCK is doing
i dont think a team can do the mad lions in this format. because they would need to be in the legend group to play few bo5 and they can only be there if they win at least one i the lck cup. if they are not in the legend group they would play bo5 to even be there. You can still have some bad thinhs like the mad but not nearly as extreme i think.
Last year everyone was saying that WBG are a bad team that is lucky to be in the finals and T1 shoud beat them ( dom included ) and that happened. The problem was whit JDG's Kanavi who played really bad for the last 2 games. All that Dom still praised T1.

There were just objectively more “decent” teams this year. T1 level completely irrelevant to that point

It's so great considering lck literally had that shittiest format with that weird ass gauntlet for the longest time
12:30 meaning of second place is to divide groups for next season

its almost like watching scrims but a bit more pro energy since its on stage
17:31 I know that team! 22 MAD

This is so sad. I always like watching the underdogs like BRO and DRX. Less games for them will probably make them lose their sponsors.

@upsxace when they finished the regular season format which is part 2 . Two of the 8 teams are out.
@@upsxace BRO is always 10th place. So they are for sure losing games.
are these changes focus on not letting teams go to Esports world cup next year or are they for the "future of league of legends"?
Unbelievably based format
Meh. Adc mid meta wasnt it. Both on pro and soloque
Laneswapping was less agregious now but earlier this year. It was like we were back to boring S4 laneswap meta.
I do find it funny that they're going to a full season, we saw what happened when a region went to a full season, hopefully it works for the best
Can you elaborate?

Best team in LCK is always OKBro cause Lord Morgan is the topgoat
Grow up
@@FloatLikeABeeyou will never be loved in your life again admit it
5:00 Now in LEC it will be vice versa. U Just need to do well in summer to qualify to Worlds😂😂😂
This is very informative and educational than what Yamato is saying
Holy
We all know what team gen g will pick first lmao i feel bad for HLE lol😊
Isn't HLE getting the first pick since they were seed 1 LCK summer?
@roooo8327 yea i made myself look dumb idk why o thought gen g was first
@@liampitout5483 even though HLE won finals, I have to remind myself that GenG is not seed 1, cause it feels like it. Fair mistake
I like it
So when the fuck do players get a break? I thought we all agreed players need a break why are we reducing their time even more
No, Western players are the ones who want more breaks. Eastern pros value practice time > anything.
What are your excuses going to be this time when T1 shits on BLG in the finals?
You will never be loved in your life again admit it
BLG is not some random team that you should not underestimate like that
Last year everyone was saying that WBG are a bad team that is lucky to be in the finals and T1 shoud beat them ( dom included ) and that happened.
