I m actually a Damwon fan before they joined the LCK because of ShowMaker katarina. So i pretty much knows what they been through. I was hoping u guys will made this video. Good Job and keep it up
when i saw g2 fall to shambles because of damwon, i just knew they were the next skt. they study the previous games of their opponent, lose the 2nd game, and win it all.
the best thing about the worlds finals and the story of DAMWON for me was the quarters was against DRX Korean team to prove once again they are the best team from LCK, next was against G2 European team who bullied LCK for the last 2 years, and lastly the finals against Sunning an LPL team that stole the worlds title for 2 years
you forget to mention that in the grudge match there was so many reasons for it, some of them being korean fanbase after the loss to G2 the year prior and the amount of disrespect they recieved from fans from both EU and KR, as well as beating SKT and having to restore glory etc.
Showmaker wanted blood. This Worlds was about who wanted it more. Which is why it was Damwon and Suning, SwordArt and HaungFeng wanted it so bad. But Showmaker was furious, and Nuguri knew it was his; Worlds was just an invitation for the rest of the orgs to recognise this fact. I feel good about HF, I hope he gets a good team for next season in the LPL, I think we will see him next Worlds going for the cup. Let's go Season 11!
LPL was getting carried by Koreans those 2 years. IG was Rookie and TheShy hard carrying with Ning servicing their lanes like a flight attendant and FPX was built around DoinB. Korea is the dominant reagion still because their influence is felt beyond the LCK
Only real “down” year, that being making it to the semi finals, was 2019. And in 2018 KT was the consensus second best team behind IG. How does that qualify for a fallen region? EU since like the second season has never won a worlds championship and NA... well... let’s not talk about that. This title is so misleading it’s crazy. This would be more aptly titled the return of the king or something.
Its funny. Western fanbois complain that eastern teams and players get overrated. Western regions have a total of 1 msi trophy from 9 years of league of legends! Europe managed to win s1 championship (wasnt called worlds) when the asian teams werent even competing.
@@hazzsin3579 Its funny when they say like: "Its only Damwon that we're good, rest are still bad" Like bro, you only have 2 teams to contend finals with, Korea had all its seeds in the Top 8 and you still say that BS. (Totally unrelated but Fanatic looked spicy vs Top even though they didn't win)
@@olsenfernandes3634 Dude, you can tell how shallow THE WEST is when the team that was 1st for most of the season, MAD lions, literally was worse than wildcard regions. MAD almost came 5th in playins groups, and ended up 4th after a bo5. You know who LCK's 4th team was -- T1. Lpl's 4th was IG/FPX. World champs. But no... its LCK that is the 1 team region lul.
@@hazzsin3579 I disagree with you there, while MAD did lose to Wildcards that doesn't mean that they're bad. Supermassive was a serious threat in group stage, they were one of the best team in groups and you could see how good MAD was aswell, especially Humanoid. Humanoid took soo many bans but still was a force to be reckoned with. Also T1 kinda did deserve 4th place, I'm glad they didn't make it to Worlds this year. The teamwork was pretty much not there at times but I agree with you that LCK is extremely competitive. I mean all the Top 4/5 teams are pretty competitive but it's just that you don't see how good they are because of how balanced it is. (The Top 5 vs each other I mean, Top 5 vs rest is just not even a match)
@@olsenfernandes3634 Except no wildcard team won a game in group stage. I doubt T1 lose and come 4th in playins. The point is to demonstrate how much more depth of talent lck has compared to lec. MAD didnt look good at all outside of humanoid. Hell, wildcard teams looked very bad considering how poor the meta was in playins. The teams barely knew how to setup the map properly and defaulted to 5v5 arams. Its why Oorn was so op in playins, and lost priority in group stage. In comparison, group stage and beyond was about split pushers like camille and jax, and not about aramming around drake.
The pro players in this years Worlds will definitely be legendary in the years to come even their names are cool.... Showmaker, Bin, Knight, Ghost, Canyon, SwordArt even Angel... definitely enjoyed the hype, Thank you for the amazing worlds videos @theScore esports
The day when they took Ghost, i know they will won world because Ghost so hype in 2019 in Sandbox. He's such consistent Adc player and im proud of him. When they won world, that's the happiest day of my life.
who dfuq is stk????? and what do you mean successors they have been in the pro scene for years and just now dwg are just rising skt won their 1st worlds and 1st lck title in their 1st year when faker emerged from solo queue so Idk about successor about skt dynasty they aren't even half of what skt has accomplished
OMG I just love these videos about the World Championship Winners. Pls keep up the great work and especially dont change the caster for these kind of videos :)
Sad to see that Nuguri will most likely go to the LPL this 2021. Dongha already signed to DWG. And T1 promoted Zeus to the main roster while canna signed and extended contract.

Ah man, you left in the clip of Atlus calling Damwon "the Darlings of Rift Rivals," but you didn't talk about rift rivals at all. I mean, that was the first big step for restoring the LCK in my opinion and it was that game that made me a fan of theirs.
I'm still a SOFM fan, the kid is amazing and the best player that has ever come out of Vietnam. And i knew DWG would win, it's obvious, they're really really good.

4:54 it wasn't all of a sudden. Most of the LCK teams who participated in Mid Season Cup (event tournament that replaced MSI) learned a lot from LPL teams and improved themselves. The Koreans call it a $70k lesson (the winning prize was $70k).
It sounds exaggerated but people forget just how dominant Korea was. "Gaming" and "Korea" were considered synonymous for a long time. No one could contest Korea as the best region in the past. So in that sense their rivals have definitely made up a lot of ground on them.
Make no mistake, Damwon Gaming is in a league apart from the rest. Although Damwon Gaming won, it has never meant that the region as a whole is back in its glory. Hoping for 2021 to be the proof that the LCK is back again.
EU gets all 3 teams into quarters 1 year they think they are hot shit. While Korea failed to get all 3 teams out just 1 year and have teams with more worlds titles then literally every other region, yeah can NA be the next fallen region if that is what we are defining it as.
At least 2 Koreans has won worlds since 2013. All Koreans in 2013, 2014, 2015 2016, 2017, and 2020. Rookie, TheShy, Duke, Coach Kim in 2018. DoinB, Gimgoon in 2019.
we all know that DWG will fall under the forgotten world champions, like IG and FNC. when you think worlds you dont think DWG you think SKT or TA. 2 teams that are remembered for winning worlds like the SSG vs SKT or G2 vs FPX we know these games because of their rivals. we need to acknowledge that this team is the greek yogurt of world winners. they are just the team that is good, nothing else.
Damwon is indeed a good team but I was cheering for SuNing. If SuNing won then the world's song Take Over could've been more epic. They're stories, and the run they had. Winning against LPL's first and second seed and making it to the finals. It just felt that they could really just take over the whole game.
This video was really good, especially for a Damwon fan like me who has been watching them since they started in LCK. So sad to hear now that Nuguri is leaving and Khan is taking his place, this team was so good :(
Breaks my heart they are splitting up man, they were so amazing together and I was really hoping they would be the next Korean Dynasty. Unfortunately DWG was not able to retain them all, and it's probably more that they couldn't afford too more than anything else.
Tbh theres 2 nuguri back in 2020 DWG. Nuguri him self in the top and BeryL the DWG Sp. Yeah, its sad to see after they wins the world Nuguri and DWG Coach decide to part away from DWG. If i i can pick whos the suitable top laner for DWG/DK 2021 rn after Nuguri leave is Former SKT T1 Khan. I think theres no other Top laner that can adapt to DK playstyle rather than the experiented player like Khan. Luckly DK get Kkoma. Kkoma love building roster according to Experiented player along the Korea. Really different with T1 coach Kin whos love to produce young player.
I'm very late but u guys just gloss over the grudge of DWG to G2...Showmaker wanted to beat them so bad that he says he wanted G2 to beat Gen.G and he doesn't care for a 100% chance of Korea going to the finals if Gen. g wins as it will be Gen.G vs DWG... that's shows how much he thirst for revenge and honestly...I am too...as an LCK fan...DWG ignited my heart that gone cold for the last two years...seeing your most hated region (china) wins championship while they themselves can't win without a Korean...(name me a Chinese team that won Worlds without a Korean...I'll wait)
People who thought korea is place 3 region are just delusional... Watching LCK rise again felt so incredibly great with a team that dont deserve any less - I cant even describe it
Most people think like that because they only see the international preformence (aka only the top teams) as the region overall preformence. It is true that at s8 and 9 EU top 2 team were better then LCK but the rest of EU wasn't even close to LCK lvl. EU is a 2 team region only and people tend forget that.

the best thing about the worlds finals and the story of DAMWON for me was the quarters was against DRX Korean team to prove once again they are the best team from LCK, next was against G2 European team who bullied LCK for the last 2 years, and lastly the finals against Sunning an LPL team that stole the worlds title for 2 years
Sunning never won it before though..
@@LynerxAurica sorry for the wrong grammar what i was meaning to say was sunning ang lpl team where lpl has took the worlds cup for 2 years
G2 didn't bullied LCK for 2 years, only 1 year tho
you forget to mention that in the grudge match there was so many reasons for it, some of them being korean fanbase after the loss to G2 the year prior and the amount of disrespect they recieved from fans from both EU and KR, as well as beating SKT and having to restore glory etc.
Not gonna lie their Worlds Skins are a perfect image of what they played like during Worlds. Like Gods
Showmaker wanted blood. This Worlds was about who wanted it more. Which is why it was Damwon and Suning, SwordArt and HaungFeng wanted it so bad. But Showmaker was furious, and Nuguri knew it was his; Worlds was just an invitation for the rest of the orgs to recognise this fact. I feel good about HF, I hope he gets a good team for next season in the LPL, I think we will see him next Worlds going for the cup. Let's go Season 11!
LPL was getting carried by Koreans those 2 years. IG was Rookie and TheShy hard carrying with Ning servicing their lanes like a flight attendant and FPX was built around DoinB. Korea is the dominant reagion still because their influence is felt beyond the LCK
And also there top lane
China embarrassed for two years.. (with Korean top and Korean mid.. so weird)
Doinb came to china 5 years ago so basically, he is an LPL player.

Argument is over💀
Only real “down” year, that being making it to the semi finals, was 2019. And in 2018 KT was the consensus second best team behind IG. How does that qualify for a fallen region? EU since like the second season has never won a worlds championship and NA... well... let’s not talk about that. This title is so misleading it’s crazy. This would be more aptly titled the return of the king or something.
Its funny. Western fanbois complain that eastern teams and players get overrated. Western regions have a total of 1 msi trophy from 9 years of league of legends! Europe managed to win s1 championship (wasnt called worlds) when the asian teams werent even competing.
@@hazzsin3579 Its funny when they say like: "Its only Damwon that we're good, rest are still bad"
Like bro, you only have 2 teams to contend finals with, Korea had all its seeds in the Top 8 and you still say that BS.
(Totally unrelated but Fanatic looked spicy vs Top even though they didn't win)
@@olsenfernandes3634 Dude, you can tell how shallow THE WEST is when the team that was 1st for most of the season, MAD lions, literally was worse than wildcard regions. MAD almost came 5th in playins groups, and ended up 4th after a bo5.
You know who LCK's 4th team was -- T1. Lpl's 4th was IG/FPX. World champs.
But no... its LCK that is the 1 team region lul.
@@hazzsin3579 I disagree with you there, while MAD did lose to Wildcards that doesn't mean that they're bad. Supermassive was a serious threat in group stage, they were one of the best team in groups and you could see how good MAD was aswell, especially Humanoid. Humanoid took soo many bans but still was a force to be reckoned with.
Also T1 kinda did deserve 4th place, I'm glad they didn't make it to Worlds this year. The teamwork was pretty much not there at times but I agree with you that LCK is extremely competitive. I mean all the Top 4/5 teams are pretty competitive but it's just that you don't see how good they are because of how balanced it is. (The Top 5 vs each other I mean, Top 5 vs rest is just not even a match)
@@olsenfernandes3634 Except no wildcard team won a game in group stage. I doubt T1 lose and come 4th in playins.
The point is to demonstrate how much more depth of talent lck has compared to lec.
MAD didnt look good at all outside of humanoid. Hell, wildcard teams looked very bad considering how poor the meta was in playins. The teams barely knew how to setup the map properly and defaulted to 5v5 arams. Its why Oorn was so op in playins, and lost priority in group stage.
In comparison, group stage and beyond was about split pushers like camille and jax, and not about aramming around drake.
“No matter how skilled you are sometimes you cant beat natural talent.”
Doesn't that just mean that you aren't skilled enough? Lmao

And then showmaker died yesterday in worlds finals against EDG 3-2
Yes EDG's Jeijei saved their whole team by stealing monsters every time, making Canyon useless
“SHANGHAI LIBRARY”
Ah man, you left in the clip of Atlus calling Damwon "the Darlings of Rift Rivals," but you didn't talk about rift rivals at all. I mean, that was the first big step for restoring the LCK in my opinion and it was that game that made me a fan of theirs.
damn REMEMBER THAT TIME WHEN YOU SEE PEOPLE WATCHING A GAME ON STAGE?? ,,, FEEL OLD YET?
Showmaker watch Faker's Crying afterwards the Fall of 2017.
Showmaker 2021: *NOW I AM FEEL THAT.*
I'm still a SOFM fan, the kid is amazing and the best player that has ever come out of Vietnam.
And i knew DWG would win, it's obvious, they're really really good.

Yeah but EDG Jeijei stole every objective from Canyon man, there's no coming back from that even if Khan was playing good
@@abhrajitpaul2744 I was surprised too, canyon was supposed to be the number 1 jungler but in the series jeijei could match or outsmart his pathing... canyon choked in the last 2 games
4:54 it wasn't all of a sudden. Most of the LCK teams who participated in Mid Season Cup (event tournament that replaced MSI) learned a lot from LPL teams and improved themselves. The Koreans call it a $70k lesson (the winning prize was $70k).
LPL should keep remind it to themselves.

I think the best part of this video is the title, so fucking good
Can't keep up with LoL but this story is so well told, I am in tears.
Can we get an episode on the disappointment that was the Chinese crowd at worlds 2020?
I mean, fallen region it's bit exagerated. Just 2 years without winning the thing, c'mon.
Imagine eu and na not winning the thing in 9 and 10 seasons.
Well lck was expected to win every year since they won 2013,2014,2015,2016,2017 and was in finals 2012
It's just for clickbait
It sounds exaggerated but people forget just how dominant Korea was. "Gaming" and "Korea" were considered synonymous for a long time. No one could contest Korea as the best region in the past. So in that sense their rivals have definitely made up a lot of ground on them.
Make no mistake, Damwon Gaming is in a league apart from the rest. Although Damwon Gaming won, it has never meant that the region as a whole is back in its glory. Hoping for 2021 to be the proof that the LCK is back again.
Pretty much back in the glory. LPL is just korean vacation home. LCS is nothing to talk about of. and LEC basically just one super team.
Worlds' without a crowd is like getting a skin but without the champion
EU gets all 3 teams into quarters 1 year they think they are hot shit. While Korea failed to get all 3 teams out just 1 year and have teams with more worlds titles then literally every other region, yeah can NA be the next fallen region if that is what we are defining it as.
When EU got all their 3teams in knockout round, LCK also got all 3teams in and as 1seed in knockout stage.
Cant be a fallen region if you never been at the top lol 😂
At least 2 Koreans has won worlds since 2013. All Koreans in 2013, 2014, 2015 2016, 2017, and 2020. Rookie, TheShy, Duke, Coach Kim in 2018. DoinB, Gimgoon in 2019.
It's finally here! I've been waiting for this!
For a clip compilation of a team that is mentioned so many times in it, you managed to pronounce the team name wrong. Wow.
6 worlds champ region is called fallen region IMO
That’s not what the word fallen means but ok
we all know that DWG will fall under the forgotten world champions, like IG and FNC. when you think worlds you dont think DWG you think SKT or TA. 2 teams that are remembered for winning worlds like the SSG vs SKT or G2 vs FPX we know these games because of their rivals. we need to acknowledge that this team is the greek yogurt of world winners. they are just the team that is good, nothing else.
Back to back worlds coming up
This aged really well didn t it ?

Congrats to Damwon gaming for their dominate wins at worlds... but honestly this video gets me more hyped for TI10.
Damwon is indeed a good team but I was cheering for SuNing. If SuNing won then the world's song Take Over could've been more epic. They're stories, and the run they had. Winning against LPL's first and second seed and making it to the finals. It just felt that they could really just take over the whole game.
if i dont see 4 lck seeds this year imma riot at riot.
This video was really good, especially for a Damwon fan like me who has been watching them since they started in LCK. So sad to hear now that Nuguri is leaving and Khan is taking his place, this team was so good :(
Breaks my heart they are splitting up man, they were so amazing together and I was really hoping they would be the next Korean Dynasty. Unfortunately DWG was not able to retain them all, and it's probably more that they couldn't afford too more than anything else.
Tbh theres 2 nuguri back in 2020 DWG. Nuguri him self in the top and BeryL the DWG Sp. Yeah, its sad to see after they wins the world Nuguri and DWG Coach decide to part away from DWG. If i i can pick whos the suitable top laner for DWG/DK 2021 rn after Nuguri leave is Former SKT T1 Khan. I think theres no other Top laner that can adapt to DK playstyle rather than the experiented player like Khan.
Luckly DK get Kkoma. Kkoma love building roster according to Experiented player along the Korea. Really different with T1 coach Kin whos love to produce young player.
Damwon and Suning had the same dream, still the better team wins. Loving both stories of Suning and Damwon.
I do feel like Suning deserve their own video like the ROX Tigers
I'm very late but u guys just gloss over the grudge of DWG to G2...Showmaker wanted to beat them so bad that he says he wanted G2 to beat Gen.G and he doesn't care for a 100% chance of Korea going to the finals if Gen. g wins as it will be Gen.G vs DWG... that's shows how much he thirst for revenge and honestly...I am too...as an LCK fan...DWG ignited my heart that gone cold for the last two years...seeing your most hated region (china) wins championship while they themselves can't win without a Korean...(name me a Chinese team that won Worlds without a Korean...I'll wait)

People who thought korea is place 3 region are just delusional...
Watching LCK rise again felt so incredibly great with a team that dont deserve any less - I cant even describe it
Most people think like that because they only see the international preformence (aka only the top teams) as the region overall preformence. It is true that at s8 and 9 EU top 2 team were better then LCK but the rest of EU wasn't even close to LCK lvl.
EU is a 2 team region only and people tend forget that.
LCK: we got our position back, yes!!!
NA: i mean, it's not that bad down here, idk why you feel so offended :(
After winning world's league now is DAMWON > EVERY REGION
it always was Danwon > China > G2 > Fnatic > LCK > EU
